It all started with a fight and it ended with a fight. How most things go right? God. I don't think I'll ever be this naïve again. There were so many signs...but I wanted to believe that I was just imagining things. Some people say I'm just too nice. Their probably right. But after this I think my perception of things will never be the same. But before I start. Let me take things back. Three months ago. The start of a new school year. The start of the event that would destroy my future, my love, and my trust.
-

X walked up to his house after the first college orientation. It was odd. There were all these rituals that the school did. From wetting shirts to scavenger hunts to a bon fire. The night had been long frankly X didn't feel like he was going to fit in with his class of students. There were some that he knew but a lot that he didn't. The school was completely new to him. Despite the random tours he had while he was still in high school. But at those he didn't feel so alone because he was with his friends. This time he was utterly alone. That is except for Axl. Zero however got accepted into a school just outside the city and would be attending there. X felt alone. Sure he had a few other friends besides Zero and Axl, but those were his very best friends. When they were gone he felt incomplete. The three had been together since what seemed like forever. Now that they couldn't spend every waking moment together...it seemed tragic. Sure X knew he was going to see Axl, but he was mostly sad about seeing Zero leave. He and Zero weren't just friends. They were together. He wasn't going to get to see his beloved Zero for weeks. Which wouldn't help very much with his teenage hormones...but that's enough about that.

X entered his house after the orientation to see his father working at the table. He looked up and greeted his son.

"How was the orientation kid?" Mr. Cain asked. X sighed.

"Ridiculous and preppy." X said taking off his hoodie and setting it at the table. Dr. Cain sighed.

"It wouldn't kill you to be more social X."

"I know...but it's just not the same."

"Still...anyways. Enough about this. X I have something to tell you." Mr. Cain said. X looked up. He knew this was coming. He'd knew it was going happen as soon as he hit college.

"I'm getting remarried son." Mr. Cain said proudly. X's face dulled. Yup he was right.

"Wonderful...let me guess to Whitney?" X said trying to fight off the bitterness. He'd hated that woman she was only after his dad's money. The bitch was just a gold digger. She was also a nightmare when his father wasn't around. X sighed contemplating all the crap that would come later.

"Why yes. So after she gets all moved in I want you to move out." Mr. Cain said. X could feel his anger swell up. Seriously he had to move out because this bitch wants to move in... Hell the fuck no. X normally wasn't the type of kid to argue with his parents but when it came to this she-devil he spoke his mind.

"Let me guess it was that bitch's idea?" X said not realising that he said it out loud. Dr. Cain slammed his hands on the table.

"Listen here you little shit...your going to respect your new mother and yes it was her idea. She said you need to live the life of a college kid I think she's right." Mr. Cain said.

"I'll never accept that woman as my mother." X said as he starting walking out the room.

"Well then don't come back here until you do. She's the woman I love and I don't need your approval. If you feel so strongly then move out tomorrow. Don't come to the wedding neither." Mr Cain said. X just stormed out of the room not really wanting to talk more to his ignorant father. He went upstairs and started packing. He was already registered to take a look at the apartments just off of campus. So he would just look at them and then sign tomorrow. There was no room for argument. He would prove that he was independent. He didn't need his dad with his horrible judgment. X was sure he'd be fine on his own. He already had his books paid for by his scholarship. Plus he had a job. Sure it wasn't the best job ever. But it was a job that payed. He worked at the library. It was a pretty secure job that he had for about 1 year now. It would be fine. X could still feel the rage he felt at his father. It didn't make sense why he want to marry that snake in sheep skin. He'd never understand how he didn't see how evil it was. But he guessed that the woman must be doing something right. Not wanting to think about the situation anymore X went to sleep. With no other thoughts.

The next morning he woke up and went down to the apartments to look them over and to see if he could get one. The lady there had been hyper and really excited to show X around the place. She was that scary kind of nice. All in all he'd end up signing the papers. The place wasn't amazing but it was nice. For a first place that is. Plus it was super cheap. Nothing could beat that. The move in date was anytime he wanted. They had already did a whole sweep of the place making sure the apartments were all ready for the college kids. He got his roommate's name and info in case he wanted to meet him before they were officially roommates. X could honestly say he was curious. The name said Rock Light. X wondered what kind of a person could have a name like that. For some reason he pictured a huge black dude with crazy work out clothes. X laughed at the mental image. It'd be funny if that was who it really was. A second coming of Mr. T. X snapped out of his humorous thoughts upon seeing his buddy Axl walking down the stairs on the way out. Axl stopped and looked at him excited.

"Dude are you moving here too?" Axl asked in amazement.

"Yes." X said. Axl's face then lit up. They both had eye contact until finally it was broken with two on sync squeals of excitement. They both stopped and started laughing.

"Never tell anyone about our womanly squealing okay?" Axl said breaking his laughter.

"Don't tell me your shamed of the womanly squealing are you?" X said.

"Pffft...shoot. I'm damn proud of it. But you know them hipsters always trying to do something new." Axl said sarcastically. That got another laugh out of X.

"Those damn hipsters. Rocking awkward granny cardigans by night, stealing our womanly squeals by day..."X said with fake anger looking up at the sky. Axl chuckled.

"Do you know who's your roommate?" Axl asked suddenly. X shrugged.

"Some guy named Rock Light." X replied.

"Lucky...I don't have a roommate...I'll be getting one later." Axl said with a sad face. X couldn't understand this. Wouldn't it be better to live alone?

"With my luck watch this guy be a total douche." X said sighing.

"Haha. Sucks for you. On that note. I gotta pack and get my shit together." Axl said as he walked by and patted X on the shoulder. X realised he had to get his stuff together as well and exited the building rushing to his own house. He didn't bother speaking to his dad about it. He decided he would just call him later. He started moving his stuff to and from using the extra car in tha garage they only used for errands. His dad wouldn't mind. Finally everything was all packed and transported. Now the real work was going to be done. The unpacking.

X started going ham with the unpacking. Putting everything in his desired place he was almost done at about 10 pm. When he heard the lock unlocking from the backroom. There was only one person it could be. His roommate Rock Light. X got up to see the person who would walk through the door. It was a bit late for them to be moving in but he guessed everyone was different. X walked into the living room and caught his first glimpse of Rock.

Rock was about a few centimeters shorter. Than X was. His hair was also a few shades darker than his own and his eyes were blue. He was built small like X. Rock looked like he was a bit scared apon seeing X sighed. This really wasn't a good first meeting. They hadn't spoke one word But X was sure Rock could feel X sizing them up. X decided he would brake the awkward silence.

"Er. Hi my name's X Cain and I'm guessing that we're roommates." X put out his hand. Rock grabbed it and smiled.

"Hello I'm Rock Light...I'm sorta not good at making introductions."

"Oh no it's fine. I didn't mean to stare at you I guess I was just curious to know who you were."

"Well now you know...I guess..." Rock said. X was at a loss for words...he really didn't know what to say to this new roommate. But seeing as how the guy had a lot of stuff he might as well help. They were going to be living together for the school year.

"Er do you need any help with your stuff? Then you can tell me your life story as I help." X said. Rock chuckled.

"Seriously? Thanks. You're a bit funny." Rock said as he handed X a box.

"I'm really not that funny...you should see my friend Axl upstairs. He's hilarious." X said thinking back on all of Axl's humorous rumors.

"Really? I'll have to meet him one day. I don't have any friends here yet." Rock said. As he grabbed another box and moved it into another room.

"Your not from here I take it?"

"No actually I'm from the next state Metro." Rock answered.

"I'm sure you'll find your crowd. But hey if you don't your always welcome to come and hang out with me. We are roommates after all." X said as he lifted up two boxes and started taking them in Rock's future room.

"Thanks. Hey what about you I want to know about you." Rock said as he grabbed more boxes. X thought about what he was going to say for a second then he spoke.

"Well there's not much to say about me I'm pretty boring. I've lived in this city my whole life. I recently got kicked out of my house that's why I'm here *Cough* Bitchassdad *Cough* What else... lets see...I have a boyfriend... annnddd..." X got into thought about what he was going to say.

"I work at the library and...I'm a rapid book reader...and 2/3rds of my wardrobe is Blue. Yes I counted." X said finishing. Rock looked like he was amazed.

"Your life sounds amazing. Well compared to mine. All I do all day is sit and play my 3DS..." Rock said. X chuckled.

"I'm horrible at video games. See you have something on me." X said with a smile. Rock laughed.

"I feel better about myself now." Rock said.

"Hey Rock want to come upstairs and meet my friend?" X asked after they were all down moving the boxes in.

"Sure." Rock said. They then exited the apartment and walked up the stairs. The y knocked on Axl's door. Loud music was bursting out of it. Axl opened the door after a few more knocks. When he opened the door he had a poptart in his mouth. The pop tart fell out when he spoke. To the ground...R.I.P poptart...

"Dude...X you didn't tell me you had a brother." Axl said. X shook his head.

"No this is my roommate. Do we seriously look that alike?" X asked not noticing it was that serious.

"Yeah...at first glance I thought you cloned your self. But now that I look more there are a lot of differences. Eyes, hair color...he's a bit shorter too...plus your faces..." Axl said as he looked Rock up and down. X could tell Rock was uncomfortable.

"SO...Axl what are you doing?" X asked breaking the discomfort.

"I just got finished putting everything as I like it." Axl said.

"But it's a mess in here...?" Rock asked. Axl just laughed.

"This is my habitat." Axl said point at the messed up room. X sighed. Axl was sure going to feel the burn when he finally got a roommate...

"Please know that nothing Axl does or says makes any logical sense." X said as he sighed. Rock giggled.

The night went on and they sat and talked for some odd hours until it got stupid late and people fell asleep. The days continued until school started. Rock and X started spending a bunch of time together. They found out that they were in the same department. English/Education. So they ended up having classes together. It was like every time you saw X you would see Rock and vice versa. Axl tried to start hitting on Rock but it never went well. Still he kept trying. They'd been roommates for about 3 weeks. When the first odd thing occurred. It was in the middle of the night. X had stayed up late to finish an essay and Rock was doing some extra studying. X suddenly got the urge to call Zero out of frustration with the paper. So he gets up in the middle of everything and calls Zero. Walking into his room for the call. Zero picks up quick. They talked for a bit.

"This paper is killing my eyes...I can't feel my hands anymore." X said with a sigh,

"Then just take a break." Zero said sleepily over the phone. Apparently he'd been knocked out sleeping when X called him.

"That's what I'm doing...but...this whole college thing is a lot harder than I thought it would be..." X said falling into a chair.

"Yeah no kidding. I barely get sleep anymore, My social life is crumbling in front of me...all I do is work and go to school and study." Zero said.

"I can't really say my social life is crumbling. I've been hanging out with my roommate Rock lately. He's cool you should meet him." X said.

"Anything to get me away from my daily life. I'll probably stop by this weekend. I don't have any papers or work then." Zero said. X felt happy.

"Seriously! That would be epic. Axl says he doesn't have anyone to make bro-jokes with anymore."

"I gotta say...I miss those bro-jokes...How is Axl? We only randomly text back and forth." Zero asked.

"Creeping on my roommate. Hard." X said. Zero laughed on the other side of the phone.

"Axl has found a new victim again?...oh lord. I can't wait to see this." Zero said with laughter. X could picture the face he was making from the other side of the phone.

"Yeah I keep purposely cockblocking because Rock just seems so...uncomfortable and irritated." X said with a sigh.

"Well Axl does tend to make people feel that way...but anyways what's this new roommate really like?"

"Well in short terms...just a shy guy. he doesn't really know the area much. He's from out of town. So yeah."

"Well...if Axl likes him there must be something off about the guy." Zero said.

"Oh your speaking of the 12 crazy lovers of Axl the great?" X asked.

"Yeah. Seriously it's like the guy has the worst luck in the world. Always falling for the crazy mofos." Zero said.

"Naaaah Rock is completely normal." X said.

"SureSure." Zero said smugly. X again could picture the kind of face Zero was making. It made him want to jump through the phone and whack Zero. X looked at the clock. It said 4:53 am. He then knew he was on the phone too long and he had to finish that paper.

"Zerroooooooo I have to go finish that paperrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" X said in a sad little kid voice.

"You got this. USE THE FORCE. YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH." Zero yelled intensely.

"But I don't waaaaaaant tooooooooo." X said with a slight whine to his voice.

"BE A MAN. WAIT...BE A TIGER. YOU ARE A TYPING TIGER." Zero said in a fake announcer voice.

"Zero that doesn't make any sense." X said.

"Yeah I know. It's late." Zero said. X laughed.

"Yeah...you need to go to sleep. Once you start making horrible analogies...it's all over." X said.

"Your right..." Zero said feeling the tiredness.

"Go to sleep. I'll finish my paper, I love you." X said.

"I love you too, goodnight." Zero responded

"Night Zero." X said before hanging up. X then felt the need to change into some random pajama type clothes. He took off his shirt. The doorway creaked a bit. X shuddered. He felt like someone was watching him. X then had a wierd feeling wash over him. He decided to shrug it off and take off his pants revealing all of his only in boxers glory. He walked over to his clothes and picked up a random sleep shirt and suddenly the door flung open. It was Rock.

"Oh X, I have a question about..." Rock stopped talking and stared. X felt very. Very...very awkward.

"Which is...?" X asked as he started to put on his stuff. Slightly annoyed at Rock's hyper intrusion.

"Well, what did Dr. Carlson say our topic was again." Rock asked getting back on track.

"Well this is a very awkward time to ask this because I'm freaking changing but...It was about the school board and why they limit funds for certain things." X said as he slipped a shirt over his head.

"Oh thanks." Rock said still intently staring. X felt that wierd feeling again.

"Erm...what is it. You keep staring at me." X asked. Rock moved closer.

"It's just that your skin is so soft...what do you do to it." Rock asked as his hand moved up to X's arm.

"I wash it with soap..." X said getting a little creeped moving back a little.

"Your so interesting X..." Rock said with a laugh.

"Erm. Thanks...I guess." X responded not sure how to process the situation.

"Who was that on the phone? I heard you from all the way in the next room." Rock said.

"Oh it was Zero. He's coming to visit this weekend...I'm excited." X said happy to change the subject.

"Well that's great..." Rock said voice trailing off.

"It feels like forever since I've seen him." X said.

"How long have you been together?" Rock asked curiously.

"4 years this one being our 5th. We've dated throughout highschool. Although I've known him since elementary along with Axl. This is the longest time we've been apart." X said thinking back on the good times he had with his friends.

"That's nice. Have you guys went all the way?" Rock asked with a out of character smirk. This alarmed X.

"Er...Erm.." X said with a cherry red face. Rock just smirked.

"Your so fucking cute with that little face of yours. I bet you've given yourself to him more times then you can count." Rock said suddenly with a tone X had never heard come out of the guy before.

"Wha...?" X started but then was cut off.

"Haha just kidding." Rock said with a chibi smile. His facial expression had changed super quick. X was very confused. He figured it might just be because it was super late but...this was a switch. Rock was like a completely different person for that minute. It was disturbing.

"Hah..okay...then..." X said walking into the next room still thinking about what just happened. He got back on the computer to finish his paper. In the next room Rock had seen the discarded clothes. Rock walked closer to them and picked them up and sniffed them and held them close. X had not noticed this as he was going ham on his research paper. Rock spoke to himself.

"We'll make him forget about that Zero. Won't we?" Rock said as he smiled to himself. Snuggling into the covers.

To be continued.

There's a good explanation for this. I watched a creepy stalker roommate movie and I wanted to write something for it. I wanted to put Megaman characters in the situation. So I decided on Rock and X. Because I just love combining X series and Classic series. There will be 5 chapters. Yes it's about to get real next chapter.

Anyways I have one thing to say. RUN ZERO RUN. MAH NIGGA.

That is all.
