NEVER BE THE SAME

“okay so according to the internet…you’re either pregnant, dying, or you’ve got a fever. do any of those sound possible in any way?”

‘Eliel!’ A high-pitched voice escaped a scrawny blonde as Eliel darted around a corner, chin tucked into his chest so that his features were obscured by a cascade of shadows and tendrils of hair. “Fuck fuck fuck,” came forced through clenched teeth as he wriggled the nearest door handle and, finding it gave way, thrust the door open so hard it slammed against its hinges with a resounding ‘thump’ and ultimately clicked close again of its own accord with the force of his entry. After a relieved exhale sent his chest sinking a few inches, Eliel slid down the length of the wall until his chin was rested on his knees and his hands had lodged themselves in his hair. “Thank god,” he whispered against his jeans. His relief was short-lived, however, when he looked up in a lazy search for a place to light up only to find his eyes interlocked with another’s. “Oh. Shit. Hey.”

“What the hell, dude?” Her voice raised as she attempted to cover herself despite only being half naked. “You could have knocked y’know!” anger boiled through the brunette’s veins as she held onto the towel around her. This wasn’t the first time someone had made it to her room without so much as a single sound, most people came to take a peak at the brunette on purpose, where others accidentally stumbled upon her. “Why are you even in here anyway?”

“you know, i made it to every single one of my classes today and i think that that calls for a thirsty thursday celebration. you in?”

“I can hear you talking but you need to know, I am super hungover right now and unless you’re talking about bagels or coconut water, I’m not interested.”

“I asked if you wanted some Aspirin or something, you seem a bit out of it.”
