Xianghua Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 A man, a senior from the looks of him, stepped onto St. Anthony's campus, wearing the school uniform, holding his jacket behind his back. Standing at 6'6, and slightly muscular, he walked through the courtyard, towards the dorms, looking at the piece of paper in his hand. "Dorm 801," he mumbled to himself, walking further, until he reached the 800's building. He walked up the stairs leading to the hotel like dormitory, sliding a card through an electronic slot by the door, as the door unlocked. He opened it, dropping his bags on one of the beds, sighing. 'Another year,' he thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maka Albarn Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 A boy, not big enough at 5'8 to be considered a man just yet, stepped onto the campus of St. Anthony's Catholic School, wearing formerly stated school's uniform, a slip of paper in hand, walked toward the dormitories, muttering, "dormitory eight-hundred-one." He walked until he reached the proper building climbing stairs until he reached his dormitory, sliding a card through the card-reader machine next to the door, and the door opened. Muttering a word of greeting to his new roommate, the boy dumped his belongings on a vacant bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xianghua Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 The man jumped slightly, hearing someone else enter the room. He looked over at his new roommate. "'Sup," he said, grabbing a bunch of books out of his bag and setting them on his bed, most of which were in Latin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maka Albarn Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 "Nothing's up, exactly. So what's your name? I'm Andrew, but I prefer Andy." The boy said, unpacking his belongings, most of his books written in Irish, his native language. He still wasn't very adept when it came to reading English.

Maka Albarn Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 "No, I've just moved here recently. I'm from Ireland." Andy did certainly have an Irish accent. He did miss his home country, but he didn't have much choice in the matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xianghua Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 Romeo muttered something to himself. "Hmm," he said. "I'm moved here as a freshman from Italy... Apparently I needed to go find Jesus, or some bullshit like that." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xianghua Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 "I'm already burning in hell," Romeo chuckled. "I can't even list all my sins. I'm too lazy to correct any of them. I'm pretty sure that's a sin too. I'm actually two years overdue," he said. "I'm 19, going on 20 this year, but they kept me back the past two years, and refuse to let me go until I 'accept Jesus'... I know I can always drop out, but I like the drama. Besides, I'm trying to get expelled." He smirked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maka Albarn Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 "Well, I didn't want to come here in the first place, but my mum had insisted and I can't just say no to her. She has a heart problem." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xianghua Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 Romeo frowned. "I totally understand," he said. "My mom's got brain cancer, they said it's from stress, and she said if I accepted Jesus I could cure it..." He sighed. "I know that's total bullshit, but I just need to humour her 'till she croaks."

"And I swear to god, I'll put on your underwear and run through the courtyard." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
