warnings: swear words
xavier was your roommate when you were at nevermore. and sadly you spend most of the time at nevermore, since it‘s your school.
you were roommates for almost two years now but none of you could grow a liking towards the other. or just didn‘t make it obvious.
you both always got into fights which resulted in ignoring each other, messing up the stuff of the other, namecalling and even more. even your friends knew how much you despised one another, so they tried to keep you apart as good as they could.
one day you were trying to sleep, your day wasn‘t the best as you just received a bad grade, slipped on some yoghurt in the cafeteria and hurt yourself. and with the stuff that was going on with the monster walking around, you were just anxious something could happen.
you were laying in bed, your blanket pulled over your head as xavier decided to keep his lights on and blast music.
„i swear to god thorpe, at least turn off that music! i want to sleep!“
„sorry, not gonna happen“
he just said and went back to his sketchbook on his desk, continuing to draw something in it.
you had enough of arguing with him. not gonna happen. you jumped out of your bed, as fast as you could with your bruises and injuries, made your way over to xavier‘s music box and turned it off.
you made your way back to your bed and sat down, sighing as it was finally silent.
„what the fuck? what is wrong with you?!“
xavier asked and turned around to you.
„with me? what is wrong with you?! i asked you to turn the music off because i want to sleep! what’s so difficult to understand?“
xavier sighed and shook his head.
„don‘t touch any of my fucking stuff again.“
„or what? you‘re going to draw a butterfly and let it attack me, huh??“
you rolled your eyes and layed back down. xavier is an ass. you were only an inch away to ask for a different roommate. you just couldn‘t do this anymore. luckily you fell asleep pretty quickly, saving you from dealing with xavier.
but once xavier went to bed as well and fell asleep, you started to feel bad. you immediately woke up, your body shaking because you were feeling so cold. you looked around as it felt like all of the windows were open, but they were indeed closed. you sighed and sat up. you didn‘t have a second blanket. and you also couldn‘t sneak out to get one. you looked around the room, trying to find something to warm you up while wrapping your only blanket around you tightly.
your eyes landed on xavier, your head telling you to go over there and ask for a warm night shelter.
„oh hell nah“
you quietly said to yourself.
„over my dead body.“
you layed back down, trying your best to keep you warm by hugging yourself and rubbing your feet together. but nothing was helping. you were still cold but also felt way to weak to go over to xavier‘s bed.
but it was the only option inside of this room.
so you got up on your shaky legs and made your way over to xavier‘s bed. you stood there for a good two minutes just looking at xavier and contemplating your decision.
you hated it. you didn‘t want to do it. but there was no other option and you didn‘t want to die.
„thorpe“
you said and poked his warm cheek as he was sleeping.
„thorpe“
you continued it but you couldn‘t wake him up, it was like he turned to stone. but ajax wasn‘t near so that‘s not the case.
„xavier thorpe“
you said a bit louder and shook his shoulder, earning a grunting sound and some slight movement from his side.
„goddamn just wake the fuck up!“
you said, almost slapping his cheek. but he woke up from your loud voice, furrowing his eyebrows and looking around the room, searching for the disturbing source. his eyes landed on you and he immediately rolled his eyes.
„what do you want? am i snoring too loud? sorry but that‘s something i can‘t control“
„no, it‘s not that. i‘m cold“
you said, your whole body continuing to shiver.
„why are you telling me this?“
„please let me sleep next to you.“
„no.“
„i even said please!“
„and i can‘t stand you! so no!“
you sighed but didn‘t leave the spot you were standing on.
„thorpe. i don‘t have any extra blankets and the windows are closed too. i won‘t come near you, i just need the warmth.“
xavier sat up and looked at you with slightly swollen eyes.
„i won‘t let you near me. don‘t even think about touching me in any way“
„never did, never will.“
you said and rolled your eyes before making your way over to the empty spot on xavier‘s bed, laying down and pulling your and xavier‘s blanket over you. you turned your back towards him and closed your eyes, already feeling how your body was slowly warming up, as you slowly stopped shivering.
you quickly fell asleep and even slept through your own alarm in the morning. since your phone was on the other side of the room, you wouldn‘t hear it.
as xavier‘s phone started ringing, trying to wake you both, you opened your eyes slowly. your head was pounding, eyes swollen and your limbs were hurting. you looked around for xavier‘s phone, wanting to turn the alarm off, as you felt…caged?
you turned your head and xavier’s was only inches away.
„jesus christ!“
you got startled and quickly turned your head back, which resulted in more pain.
xavier had his arms wrapped around you, hugging you tightly to himself. he woke up through your startled noise and furrowed his eyebrows. he then heard his alarm as well and quickly turned it off.
„five more minutes…“
he mumbled and cuddled his face back into the back of your head.
it didn‘t take long for him to realize what was happening at the moment, his eyes opening again to scan the situation.
„xavier. can you let go?“
„oh fuck, sorry. of course.“
he immediately removed his arms around you and scooted a few inches backwards. what he didn‘t see was the end of his bed, which he fell down with a loud noise.
you got up and looked down at him.
„are you okay??“ you helped him up, trying not to laugh.
xavier grabbed your hand and got up, sitting back down on his bed and rubbing his back.
„i‘m fine.“ he looked up at your face, seeing that you tried not to laugh.
„don‘t get any wrong ideas. you just wouldn‘t stop shivering so i hugged you.“
he said and looked away again.
„yeah, sure. no problem. thank you“
you just said and nodded before making your way over to the bathroom to get ready for the day, starting with some pain killers for your head..
