Moving Day || Nathaniel + Asher

[amnesiac-ash]

"I’ve been here for a month or two… You find your way around pretty quickly, don’t worry." He smiled politely to the other one, pitying him for having to go through all that. "Move stuff around?" Ash frowned, looking back to his so-called ‘organized mess’. "Eh, what the hell. Go for it." He shrugged. “Just a couple of things: You’re not allergic to cats, right? Because Scabbers is always here, so all of your stuff will be covered in cat hair in no time. Also, do you snore? Sleepwalk? Anything I should be prepared for?”

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

"Well, that's good." He nodded as Asher gave him permission to move things around, then nodded once again in response to his question. "Right; I'm good. I can handle cat hair." While he wasn't exactly a huge fan of felines, he could deal with them, at least to some extent. "I don't have any habits like that, no. I just don't like messes, that's all."

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

"--Worst. Day. Ever." Nathaniel didn't even realize that someone was close enough by to hear him; he was mostly speaking to himself.

[belle-collins-deactivated201504]

"It’s nice to meet you too!" I smiled "you have so much hair I grumbled a bit."

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

"Really? I never noticed," he chuckled. "Do you do this with every guy you meet, or . . ?"

[major-ray]

"Yeah, it, uh, looks like it. It’s okay, though." He chewed on his lip, grip tightening around the pillow as he hugged it to his chest. "No - you can stay, if you want… I can’t see why you would want to. Are you here to see my roommate?" Ray asked, lifting a hand to cover the thickest of the scars on his shoulder, fidgeting slightly.

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

"Well, we haven't met before, so that's a good enough reason to stick around, right?" Nathaniel turned to face the hallway, leaning against the door frame but not looking over at the stranger for even a second. "No - I was actually looking for my room. I figured I'd go back and take a nap or something, 'cause I was a little bored, but I don't have anything important to do . . . Oh, I'm over-sharing again; sorry. It's a bad habit."

[xkiyeol]

Kiyeol held his breath as the other grabbed his hand, he didn’t enjoy contact that wasn’t initiated by himself but he realized that in the moment it was the only choice and he was just glad the other hadn’t grabbed his wrist. He lagged behind a little so it looked even more like it wasn’t by choice, hoping the staff that was originally lurking around and told him he couldn’t go out had cleared off by now. As they reached outside the calmly slid his hand away from the other and pulled his sleeves over his hands. “Thanks… I’m Kiyeol by the way, or Ki if that’s easier to remember.”

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

He let go of Kiyeol's hand as soon as they were outside, stepping just a little closer to the door to really create the appearance that he was preventing him from entering. "No problem. Nice to meet you, Kiyeol; I'm Nathaniel." Most people didn't shorten his name, so he figured there was no reason to include his nickname in his introduction. "Just wondering, why'd you want to go outside so badly? You don't have to tell me or anything; I'm only trying to make conversation."

[parkerlylemontgomery-blog]

"I’m fine.. I’m f—" he was cut short by another upheaval of throw-up. Parker groaned and his shoulders shook along with his head. "No, no, I’ll be fine. Just.. I didn’t see something good. I’ll be fine, I promise." 

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

"You don't look to fine, mister," he observed, but didn't argue. "Are you sure you'll be alright? I can go get you water or something - or a couple paper towels."

[missxemilia]

"I’ll be remember you. What’s your name?"

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

"Maybe you won't - I did tell you my name already." Nathaniel couldn't help grinning, although he hoped he wasn't making her feel bad about it. "It's Nathaniel."

[belle-collins-deactivated201504]

"Oh, my name is Belle." I continued to play with his hair 

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

"Well, it's nice to meet you, Belle."

[missxemilia]

"I think so too." she grinned.

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

"Well, if you ever need someone to sneak up on and kiss, I guess I'm up for it," he said with a small chuckle.

[little-eyes-see-more-blog]

"I tell you when I’m telling you move out of your room so I can conduct one. Stand by the door." He smiled, making sure he made his eyes crinkle enough that the smile didn’t look false. He slipped seamlessly into the role of a laidback, uncaring security intern. In reality he was sniffing for new targets. 

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

"I don't want to, man. Can I talk to someone besides you about this? If someone else wants to come search my room, that's fine with me, but I don't feel comfortable with you doing it."

[xkiyeol]

That— that might actually work, lets do it.

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

"Well, I-- I hope it won't be weird if I do this, but . . . " He grabbed hold of Kiyeol's hand and practically dragged him towards the door, figuring it would be the best way to give the impression that he really was forcing the stranger outside.

[missxemilia]

"Just because I shouldn’t, but I can, so I did…"

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

"Well, I mean . . it's fine that you did; I was just curious. There's nothing wrong with kissing a stranger every once in a while - it keeps things interesting."

[drsylvie-daniels-deactivated201]

"Hmm?" Sylvie hummed, not paying attention. "Oh, oh yes, I’m sure I’ll be fine in a little while." She smiled at him and took the files from him. "Thank you, but I don’t think it would be fair to pawn off my sob story to a patient." She frowned sadly, desperate for this day to just end, so she could go home and lounge on the sofa with Bria.

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

"It's fine; don't worry about it. I'm all ears, if you want to share, but you don't have to," he said with a small smile. Nathaniel started to pick up the papers, collecting them before handing them to her. "Here you go, Miss . . ?" He didn't know what to call her, it seemed, for they had yet to introduce themselves.

[missxemilia]

"Emmy." she replied simply.

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

"Nice to meet you, Emmy; I'm Nathaniel. Did you kiss me for some particular reason, or . . "

[txme-bxmb-deactivated20150303]

"Yes."

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

"That's . . unfortunate, then. I'm sorry about that."

[missxemilia]

"Hey! You! Com’ere" 

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

He drew away a moment later, an awkward smile on his lips. "I'm flattered, but-- it might be nice to know your name first, yeah?"

[lola--martin-deactivated2015051]

Lola smirked but stood from her seat and walked over to the man. She caught the eye of the girl touching him, “May I?” She ran her hands through his hair until the other patient got bored and left them. “You’re welcome.” Lola laughed, patting him on the shoulder as she stepped back. 

[nathaniel-labuschagne]

He cast her a very grateful, puppy-eyed look, a tiny smile spreading across his features. "Thanks; I owe you one . . . Actually, I owe you a lot for that," he chuckled. "I'm Nathaniel; what's your name?"
