Shaw had decided to go for a run at night which had turned out as a huge mistake as she finally had returned to her dorm, sweaty and tired as hell. Pressing the key into the lock and turning it, she could hear a short yelp coming from the inside of the room, which caused her to open the door even wider, only to be greeted by a naked limbs and John Reese's ass crack.
"Like the view...? Get out!" Zoe yelled, which was followed by a pillow that hit Shaw square in the face.
Stumbling back, she slammed the door quickly shut, before she got to see even more than just Johns crack.
For a moment she debated if she should enter, what did she care if they were having sex it was her goddamn room too! They could do that stuff at Johns for fucks sakes.
Angry she dropped the pillow and started to bang her fists against the door.
She could hear a noises from inside, before the door just slightly opened again.
"Shaw I know… I know, just please this once..." Without waiting for a reply Zoe shoved some of Shaws clothes into her arms; " Thanks your the best!" she gave her a bright smile, before she shut the door again, this time locking it, leaving the key inside the lock.
Sam was left outside baffled, holding her clothes, with her mouth hanging open, they had a rule, only one rule and Zoe was breaking it right now, not that it had been the first time, usually she would break the door down and the problem would vanish in a matter of a couple seconds, but risking seeing John naked forced an unpleasant shiver through her body. Still glaring at the door, she exhaled an angry breath, before she stormed over to the bathroom.
After the hour long shower the room was still occupied and locked, she had tried. With another angry breath she sad down against the wall, stretching out her legs, before letting her head drop down against the wall closing her eyes.
It was 2 in the freaking morning and she be damned if she couldn't at least another couple hours of sleep in. Her body was getting more relaxed by the minute, as she was drifting slowly into slumber, when she was suddenly pulled out of the almost dream state as she was hit over the head, and pushed to the ground by another body.
A hand had slammed into her face, and the person fell over her outstretched limbs face forward barely able to catch her fall.
Shaw would have laughed at the woman, if she hadn't been punched in the face and earned another kick in the stomach.
"Watch it dimwit!" Shaw growled out, pulling her legs back, rubbing the cheek which the woman had slapped.
The woman was definitely disorientated not knowing what had happened, she looked around, but Shaw could only see brown curls covering the womans face.
"What the… " the woman said, followed by a groan as she sat up rubbing her shoulder.
Shaw kept glaring at her, daring her to say something. The brunette almost jumped with surprise as as her dark brown eyes found Shaws. The woman seemed to suddenly return from her own realm and a small smirk appeared on her lips.
"Well give a girl some warning, before sneaking up on her like that" she said, sounding way to flirty for Shaws taste.
Ugh she was way to tired for this.
"I didn't sneak up on you, you were the one disrupting my sleep!" Shaw hissed out, before positioning herself back against the wall stretching her legs out.
She could feel the womans eyes burn into her, hoping that that woman will just leave her alone, she glared back;" Is there a reason for you to annoy me?"
The womans smirk only widened, before she started to get up.
"You tell me to watch it, but your the one sleeping on the floor... in dark!" she chuckled.
"Well cant exactly sleep in my bed can I?" Shaw snapped back, closing her eyes and crossing her arms in front of her, obviously done with their conversation.
"Alright sweety... it was nice meeting you!" she purred back, before walking off.
After that it was even harder for Shaw to go to sleep, with the womans face swirling around on the back of her eyelids. With another sighed, she finally laid down on the floor, curling herself in a ball, trying to get at least a bit warmth because it was getting way to cold out on the floor now..
She had almost drifted over the verge of sleep again, before she heard someone coming up the hallway, now alarmed, her eyes opened again, lifting her head to look around she found the woman from earlier watching her. If that hadn't been creepy enough, the woman had another smirk dancing on her lips.
"You know its kinda creepy to watch people sleep." Shaw whispered knowing full well that the brunette could hear her.
"Well good thing you aren't sleeping then!" the woman purred back.
"Well if someone wouldn't try to keep me awake, I would be fighting unicorns by now!" Shaw mumbled into her arm.
"Belief me if Id try to keep you awake, you would know it." Root smirked, walking over to open her door.
But before Shaw could reply there was another loud moan coming from her room again. Shaw rolled her eyes, and turned away from Root and the sounds desperately pressing her eyes close and covering her ears. "Cant a girl get some peace?"
The woman stayed at the door for a moment obviously starting to understand Shaws situation.
"Sweety, I usually don't share my bed, but for you Id make an exception." the woman purred again, another smirk dancing on her lips.
"Ill pass!" Shaw shot back, curling further into herself.
"Suit yourself" the woman pouted, before entering her room.
"Oh by the way Im Root!"
After another uncomfortable 10 minutes on the floor, knowing full well she wasn't sleeping anytime soon, she got up and knocked on Roots door.
What could happen other than Root making some dumb remarks. Shaw was sure she could take Root without a problem, yes the girl was tall but usually that was an advantage for her. Plus the girl didn't have a lot of muscles, at least she couldn't recall. And if she was lucky enough she could just borrow a blanket or maybe sleep on that womans couch because even as weird as this woman seemed she couldn't be serious about her and Shaw sharing a bed, could she?
"Hey Sweety, you missed me?"the woman purred with a smile.
Shaw raised an eyebrow at her, before her eyes took the woman in for the first time, her eyes traveling up and down that strange womans body.
Shaw couldn't deny that this woman was hot, noticing only now that she had put her wet hair in a messy ponytail, and was dressed in a pair of grey pj pants with a black tank top. For some reason she felt the urge to swallow, as her eyes passed over the womans breast, but before her eyes could linger the woman spoke up again.
"Like what you see?" she smirked.
"Im to tired for this shit, are you gonna let me in or what?" Shaw asked angry now glaring back at Root.
Root was still smiling and stepped aside, gesturing for Shaw to come in.
Shaw entered the Room, she didn't know what she had expected but for some reason not this.
Roots side was on the left and someone else inhabited the right, but the bed was empty and no one else was insight. Looking around, the right side was clean, a couple books were stacked on the desk and a couple pictures of a tv show that Shaw didn't know covered the wall over the bed, other than that its was clean. Looking back at Roots side, the bed was a mess and covered by clothes, her desk was overflowing with papers and energy cans, coffee pats and two desktops, both turned off, the floor was covered with books, but other than that the room wasn't messy at all.
Her eyes were still scanning for a couch, but she couldn't find one, slowly she looked questioningly back at Root.
Root had lifted the laptop from her bed, and placed it on top of her desk, before cleaning her bed from some clothes.
"You were serious about the sharing a bed part?" Shaw asked bluntly, disbelieve and annoyance clear in her voice.
"Well if you insist!" Root smiled, walking over.
"Root." Shaw warned.
There was a long silence between them, until the brunette put Shaw out of her misery and simply shrugged and said;" You can take my bed, ill take my roommates, she wont be back today anyway."
Shaw watched the woman for a moment before walking over to Roots bed, not thinking twice anymore she let herself drop in, curling up in Roots bed and pulling the blanket up to her chin and closing her eyes.
Root chuckled at her, turned off the lights, and sat down on the chair, working on something on her laptop.
"Im Shaw by the way… and thank you for... you know.. letting me crash." Sameen mumbled without opening her eyes. Snuggling into the pillow, breathing Root in was for some reason to overwhelming for Shaw, something warm creeped up her body, that woman smelled good. There was something about this woman, but Shaw couldn't put her finger one it just yet.
Shaw woke up, disorientated she looked around. This was definitely not her bed, it took her a moment to remember what had happened to her last night... Root.
She sad up, looking around, she found the bed opposite her empty, exactly the way it was when she had seen it yesterday, or this morning.
She ran her hands through her hair and out of the corner of her eyes Shaw could see the screen of the laptop still on. She got up and walked over, only to see Root asleep on her laptop, her head pressing on the keyboard, and writing out the letter GGGGGGGGGGGGGGG on the screen.
Her bare shoulders were covered by goosebumps, and despite the pool of drool that had formed on her hand, she looked adorable. Shaw had watched her for some time until she had realized what she was doing and stopped. Her eyes now scanning over the screen.
Root had been working on something, she could see an open Tor browser, a black box with green writing and one program that was open that only read out the letter G as it was still writing it out, because Roots head was pressing down the key.
Shaw wondered how long this woman had worked until she had finally collapsed and fallen asleep.
She thought for a moment about putting a blanket around her or maybe waking her to tell her that she had to get ready now if she had class, or make her coffee.
But Shaw dismissed all those thoughts, before glancing one more time at the sleeping woman and leaving the room.
