Brynn was upstairs sitting on the floor. He had moved the materials inside making a neat corner for Luna. He smiled as she ducked in between his legs. She was adorable. Luna jumped up on him as he scratched her head softly. She was soft too. He loved her already.
He wondered when Anto would get back to see their new friend. Luna was wandering around the room pawing at things as he just watched her. She amazingly didn't shed often so the room almost looked the same and clean aside from the small kitty corner. He lay up on his bed letting their new roommate explore.
He was drifting off to sleep before hearing a small mew. He looked down to see Luna staring up at him. He picked her up placing her on his stomach as she walked around. Brynn smiled as she walked off and around the bed settling on his pillow. "Hey now that's where I sleep." He said smiling.

Antosha trudged up the stairs, covered in water. He had spent all afternoon training with his swords, trying to master them. Halfway through, the rain started pouring so he ended up being soaked to the bone. He expected the dorm room to be empty, Brynn would be hanging out with his new friends no doubt. Maybe, just maybe, Anto could get a shower in before Brynn showed up. With a sigh he squeeked open the door, shoving his sword into his wardrobe.
"Hey Brynn." he said, plopping down on his own bed. A faint mewing reached his ears, making him turn his head. Laying on Brynn's pillow was by far the cutest kitten ever. "Who is that?" he asked, pointing to the creature.

Anto walked in sopping wet and lay on his bed. "Oh, your bed’s going to be soaked." He said standing up closing his eyes using some of the elemental magic he learned mixing air and fire to make a giant blow dryer effect. After a while and not much result Ant was a tad dryer. He looked over his shoulder at the kitten peering up at him. "This lil’ girl?" He said smiling picking her up and laying on his bed once more.
"This is Luna." He smiled scratching her head softly receiving more satisfying purrs. He kissed her nose as she mewed at him. "Mayu got Luna for us." He said. "She's adorable." He smiled again.

"So that's what she was looking for? Awwww, so cute." Antosha smiled, fixing his hair. He walked over and petted Luna's head, smiling up at Brynn. "She is so going to steal your pillow!" he said with a laugh. Antosha giggled to himself, Brynn could be so silly at times, getting a small kitten like this for no reason. She was cute, but Ms Jackson might find her and then they'd have to throw her out..

The kitten purred at Anto's touch. It was true Luna seemed to love his bed. Brynn looked up. "It's ok if Luna steals it." He said kissing her nose. "I can always share with you." He said without looking at Anto's eyes, he was sure Anto knew what he meant. He smiled as Luna began crawling all over his lap and on his bed.

Antosha smiled at Luna, who would be staying for awhile. "We should give her a red streak in her fur to match us." he said jokingly. Up until now he hadn't noticed it but he and Brynn both had a bit of red in their hair. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a piece of string and dangled it in front of Luna, wondering if she would play with it like all his old cats did. When Brynn mentioned sharing Antosha blinked, pretending he hadn't heard it.

Brynn laughed. "I don't want to ruin her perfect white fur." He smiled realizing Ant was right they both had red in their hair. He smiled at the coincidence watching Luna paw at the bright string trying to grab on to it. He smiled giggling a little bit. "She's adorable." He looked up at Ant still wet and probably cold. "You should probably take a shower, you'll catch a cold in those clothes." He said with concern.

Antosha bit back what he was dieing to say, keeping his promise to back off. "Nah, I can always go to the healers later." he said, playing with Luna more. He snickered to himself, 'Haha, we have a fake kid, I wonder who would get custody. It's almost like a house, though it's much smaller. By it he had meant the dorm room, the fake kid would be little Luna. Again, he was mad at Ms Jackson for putting them in the same room, talk about a suggestion!

Brynn frowned. "Fine, but when you get sick don't say I didn't warn you." He said becoming silent when he realized it. The strange awkward silence had fallen over them. He had forgotten how that felt after the first night he had fallen asleep next to him. All of a sudden it was back. He didn't like it. Brynn looked down sad wanting to go curl up under his sheets. Luna was walking around the room rubbing at Anto's feet. Brynn arms hung limp at his sides. Maybe if he left the room. "I...I just remembered I have to be somewhere." He said standing up to leave. "Look after Luna." Not once did he dare look up to meet Anto's eyes. "I'll see you later." He reached for the door.

Antosha looked up at Brynn, trying not to show his own sadness. "I'm sorry this makes you uncomfortable, I will speak to Ms Jackson tomorrow about the sleeping arrangements." he said, standing up. Brynn shouldn't have to leave, if anyone should it was Antosha. Maybe he could crash on one of the couches downstairs, or in the library. The library was always comfortable. "Luna likes you more than me anyway, you should stay with her. I'll be the one leaving, don't expect me back tonight. I'll see you tomorrow when I get my things?" he asked, keeping his eyes level with a space just above Brynn's head.

Brynn shook his head turning to see Anto grabbing all his things. Luna watched confused on the bed. Brynn grabbed his wrist gently to stop him from packing anything else. "No." He said with confidence and a bit force. "I..." He broke again. "No Ant...I don't like this, not where I sleep." He said looking up at him. "I don't like you avoiding me, holding back." He said his eyes focused. "I don't like the awkwardness." He said looking down. "And I hate myself for causing it." He said looking back up with less intensity and more sadness. "It's my fault because I'm an indecisive...loser." He couldn't think of a much better word. "So...so stop putting this on yourself. I don't want you to go downstairs, because this is my fault." He said his voice slightly raised.
"You don't know, how confused I am right now. I really do like you, maybe more." He said looking to the side, his face becoming red. "But I'm too afraid to say anything and now...now I'm getting other people involved and all of their advice is tearing me apart." He had spun off on a tangent. This wasn’t about sleeping arrangements; this was about confronting his problems. "This whole situation is making me lose sleep." He was a bit surprised he hadn't broken down completely. He let go of his wrist trying to get more out but he couldn't. He looked as if he would say more but his mouth produced nothing. "I..eh..." His hands were at his sides. It took so much just to get that out, he felt his knees getting weak. He somewhat fell into the ground his eyes focused downward. Now he knew Ant would only be annoyed. "I'm sorry..." He whispered under his breath.

Antosha caught Brynn before he hit the floor, supporting all his weight. "No, you don't need to be sorry. Your defiantly not a loser, and if other people's advice is tearing you apart then ignore it. Erase it from your memory." he was forcing the words out, not knowing what to say. Without meaning to he picked Brynn up and carried him to his own bed, pushing Luna away when she tried to climb up. "It's alright, trust me. Don't worry anymore. I'm sorry that I've been such a jerk to you, and I do know how confused you are. I'm an empath, remember?" he meant it as a joke, but knew it would fall flat. He let go of Brynn and sat down beside him, knowing this was more delicate then the last night.

Brynn could feel Anto pulling him up and on the bed. "Thanks..." He said pulling himself up in a sitting position. "I'm really sorry though, I'm making you wait all this time. I'm such a jerk." He said smiling faintly. He looked down feeling cold. He sighed looking up. "So I guess we'll both be sleeping in our room tonight." He said finally wishing to avoid any more avoidance. "Uhm thanks..." He said falling back down onto his back.
