We Were Up And Down And Barely Made It Over

“More than you I’d wager.” He responded using his usual cocky tone, though he was absolutely bluffing. “Just because I couldn’t get us a Nationals victory last year doesn’t mean I’m competent. Far from it. And I’m not about to let myself be pushed aside by you.” He countered. He remained oblivious to the other’s true motivations. “If you’re seriously gonna stick around, we’ll just need to find a way not to want to kill each other. I have a feeling this might be hard.”

"Doubtful." Hunter replied smoothly as he reached for the book on his night stand, settling himself in a sitting position against his headboard. "Too late, I'm the captain now and unless you want to be swaying in the back I would recommend you learn to respect authority."

“Good.” Sebastian responded nonchalantly. “Because if you were then I’d need to inform you you’re doing an absolutely terrible job at it.” He added, not missing a beat as he snickered. He doubted this weak kind of comeback would truly get under the other’s skin, but he couldn’t simply let the other male insult him without fighting back. “I’m just saying, your leadership is gonna drive us straight for the nearest wall, and then we’ll crash and…” He chuckled. “Well I might just get my old position back, actually now that I think about it. So please, go ahead and set everything on fire. I’ll be hanging back with the hose to wet it all back down.”

"How many Regional Championships have you won Smythe?" Hunter responded evenly, not even bothered by anything the other was saying. He had every intention on staying at Dalton, and he didn't care if the boys liked him. He didn't need friends, he needed to not go home. And right now that meant leading these boys to a victory, and winning is what he did best. He was just fine on his own.

Sebastian let out another sigh, he was frankly annoyed. Honestly, he never tried to reach out to others. He was pretty much a lone wolf. It was just easier that way, even if he had vowed to try to be nicer recently, there was a huge difference between being nice and actively seeking out social interaction. He couldn’t exactly help talking to his own roommate though. “You’re a bundle of joy, aren’t you?” He shot back.

“Good thing I never even tried. The army life’s not for me, even if you were to tell me you guys secretly had like, the wildest parties ever or something which, for the record, I wouldn’t believe anyway.” He said. “But you’re not in Colorado anymore. Maybe you should try to adapt to where you are now. For both of our sakes before one of us snaps and takes it out on the other.”

Hunter couldn't help but roll his eyes for what was probably the hundredth time that night. "Look, I'm not here for you to like me." Hunter crossed his arms over his chest, looking the other up and down.

"Maybe you should learn that I'm going to run things my way, Your way obviously didn't work, so how about instead of criticizing my leadership technique, you learn how to harmonize."
