Chapter 1
Ivan sighed, this was the 5th roommate he drove away and he was only in his freshman year of college. This time it was a boy named Toris Laurinaitis. He was 20 years old, but with his thin and perfectly smooth frame he looked no older than 16. Ivan however was completely opposite, with a big boned stature and the fact that his facial hair grew inhumanly quick made him look like he was around 30. He didn't think about it too long though, as the college therapist coughed politely, trying to get Ivan's attention. "Ahem….well do you wont to talk about it?" His British accent grated Ivan's nerves and made him have to control himself so he wouldn't beat the life out of Arthur, his therapist. "Nyet…" Ivan covered up his annoyance with a childish smile barely seen behind his light beige scarf. "U-uh are you sure? Talking always makes me feel better…" Ivan scoffed, he hated this man, he wanted to rip out his heart and shove it down his throat, now that he thinks about it that would probably be the only way to shut him up. But, instead of doing exactly that he just answered, trying to control his anger "Da, I'm sure it does…" Arthur's thick eyebrows furrowed at this "I'm being serious."
"So am I." At this Arthur sighed "Come on Ivan, you never talk to me… I wont to know about your life, your past, I can help you." Ivan stood quickly, making the plastic chair fall to the ground with a loud 'Clank' "Nyet, I do not want to talk about my past, it will help no one, what's done is done and that's it." With that Ivan turned sharply on his heel and exited, glancing over his shoulder with a childish smile, he broke the silence "Dasvidania, comrade."
Walking down the empty corridor he couldn't help but think about who he was rooming with, he heard he drove out 5 roommates in the past 2 months. Yao only hoped he wouldn't be the 6th to go, you see he desperately needed a place to stay as he was 1 month late to get a dorm, but as if an act of a God a reasonably sized apartment just opened up, the only catch was that he had to share it with a rumored psychopath. "Room 238, ok, I got this, just be polite…aiyahhh" Yao groaned in frustration, palming his face, he was always good in social situations so why was he so flustered now. He just wanted his freshman year to go my quietly and happily. There it was, room 238, Yao sighed and rubbed his temples. 'I've got this; all I have to do is open the door.' After the doors 10 minute creaking session as Yao opened it, he peered into the dark room feeling like he was in a cheesy horror movie. Actually stepping into the small apartment he decided it wasn't that bad and even thought it was a little cozy with its warm cocoa colored walls and light tan carpet. There were mossy green couches with little yellow and turquoise decorations here and there. It obviously wasn't designed by a boy so Yao was confused because he was more than assured his roommate was a male. "My sister decorated." Yao froze, not knowing what to do; the voice was obviously not coming from behind him so he looked down to the hall and saw a tall man with a barely muscled body with just a small bit of fat. "A-ah! You scared me haha, sorry, I'm Yao, uh I'm rooming with a guy named Yiwan uh is he around?" Yao stuttered, trying to pick up his 2 suitcases and present himself as kind as possible. Even though this guy was kind of intimidating he really looked nice.
Ivan ran a hand down his face stopping momentarily to feel his scruffy jaw, 'I guess I should of shaved…oh well' he thought. Observing the man in front of him, the Asians words finally caught up to him "Ha, Yiwan?" Suddenly realization hit his post-nap mind "Ah, you must be Jao da? I am Ivan" Ivan extended a bearish hand to Yao, trying to be friendly, until he actually absorbed the way Yao looked. He had long blackish-brown hair tied in a low ponytail, pale yellow/tan skin, his cheeks were painted a light cherry red and his lips were petal pink and plump, turned up in a shy smile. But the thing that struck Ivan the most was Yao's eyes; they were a gorgeous amber color, reminding him of a mischievous cat. He flinched when Yao took his large, rough hand in his own significantly smaller and smoother hand, not really expecting him to take it. Yao shook his hand with determination, smiling brighter and his orange eyes filled with confidence. "Nice to meet you Yiwan but umm, I don't mean to be rude but you look a little old to be in college." Ivan laughed, that certainly wasn't the first time someone said that to him but it sounded so much better coming from Yao. "Nyet, I am 21, I just haven't shaved in a few days." He watched with amusement as Yao's thin eyebrows furrowed in thought "What's a few days, if you don't mind me asking" At this Ivan's eyebrows raised in surprise, no one really cared that much to hold a conversation with him even if it was about facial hair. "Around 4 or 5 days I suppose… do you need help with your bags little Jao?"
Yao stared at him in disbelief, not sure whether to be surprised about the fact that this man's facial hair grew quicker than a wild fire spread or the fact that his nickname was now 'Little Jao' But he snapped himself out of his thoughts as what Ivan said actually sunk in "Oh, y-yeah sorry aru I just zoned out a bit." Ivan chuckled as he picked up both bags and took them to Yao's new room, right next to his own. 'Aru' Ivan mused to himself, grinning happily he thought about living with Yao. Just being near Yao already made him feel jittery inside and unintentionally protective, He would make his little Yao love him, come hell or high water.
