The start of a new school, especially a college, was generally nerve wrecking for most people. The blond haired boy though seemed almost unfazed by it all. That was until he was told that his new roommate was a person many avoided, or that's what he had heard through the whispers around him as he made his way to his new home for the rest of the year. Carrying a couple bags on him as he shoved the door open and looked around the room for his new roommate who luckily wasn't even in there at that point. Setting his bags down he flopped on a bed that he was 'hoping' wasn't the others, who quite possibly has given himself a bad rep judging by the rumors alone.
Ed had no way of knowing why they were whispering about his room mate or what this guy had done to make the rest of the campus so...leery around him. It probably wasn't something really worth worrying about though. If Envy was even the least bit dangerous, he probably would've been expelled. The dorm room itself was nicely kept and there seemed to be a few things already there. But, whoever it was certainly didn't seem to have brought much with them. Oh well, maybe they were working on bringing more up. For now, at least he could enjoy the silence.
The door was kicked open and there was a distinct smell of cigarette smoke that billowed into the room. A tall raven dressed entirely in black leather came walking in, a few chains attached to the sides of his pants jingling as he moved. However, when the raven finally turned his gaze up to look around the room, he immediately caught sight of the blond just lounging in his bed. "Hey, I don't know or care who the fuck you are. But get out."
The smell of the cigarette smoke hit the blond directly in the nose causing it to curl up in a bit of disgust as he opened one of his eyes to glance at the boy that intruded into his day dream. Sitting up at his own pace he looked the boy up and down, he did look the part of being someone to 'avoid' like the rumors he heard, but he highly doubted that all of them could be that true.
Covering his nose with one of his hands, Ed waved the other hand to try and fan the smell of tobacco away.
"No need for an attitude..." Ed started to say, clearly not bothering to get off the others bed, well, he didn't know it was the other's bed but still. "I can't get out, I'm your new roommate." A smirk crossed his lips, there really was no other way he was able to get in the room unless he was in fact suppose to be there, "Guess you'll just have to deal with me."
The raven scowled down at him, stepping further into the room as he kicked the door shut behind him with a loud thud. Upon closer examination, he seemed to have a few piercings, one on his lower lip and another on his right eyebrow. Not exactly the picture of an upstanding man of society. He looked about as thuggish as someone could look but still manage not to look like a total mess. "Oh really? I thought all you faggots were having a grand old time avoiding me. Why the sudden change?" He moved closer, standing up to his full height as his long raven hair fell around his shoulders and down his back in a dark veil.
Raising an eyebrow, Ed looked the other up and down, sure this person could of been very intimidating if it wasn't for the fact Edward really didn't care. It wasn't like he had much choice in who he stayed with after all, "I don't know what you mean by 'sudden change', but there was no other rooms I could stay in so you're pretty much stuck with me." Deal with it. Okay, maybe the other was a little more intimidating than the blond originally thought, not because they were taller. Never. Standing up off the bed, Ed went to one of his bags and began to pull out some of his things to began putting on his desk, "And if you're going to have that kind of attitude this is going to be a really annoying long year."
"Hoo-fucking-ray. Well, stay the fuck out of my bed. Don't you dare touch any of my stuff. Let's see, what else...oh yea, fuck you too." The raven continued to glare at him even as the blond got up off of his bed. He quickly took his place, flopping down with an ever so friendly middle finger raised at his new room mate. He kicked his shoes off across the room, not caring when they collided with the wall on the other side. Seriously, he had to deal with a room mate now? They must've been really strapped for space for the new semester if they stuck someone in here with him.
The blond smiled feeling a bit of accomplishment from irritating his new found friend? Which wasn't much of an accomplishment considering this person looked as if he had a stick up his ass or something.
Finishing putting his things away he sat down on his bed, folding his hands under his chin, "So..." He tilted his head a bit, "Do they call you asshole here or do you actually have a name?"
Envy sneered at him before rolling over onto his side, turning his back to him. "Duh. But its none of your business, shortstack." Why should he bother introducing himself to this twerp? More than likely, the blond would be gone by the end of the week. Either he'd drop out or beg the staff to put him in a new room and he'd never need to see his stupid face again.
A small growl escaped the blond boys throat as he shot up, "I'm not short!" This was going to be a really bad year and he didn't want to hold his temper. Envy rolled his eyes at the outburst, trying not to smirk at just how funny it was to hear hi snap like that out of near nowhere. The raven didn't bother replying when Ed introduced himself. What did he care? The twerp seemed to be annoying as hell already and the semester just barely started. "Yea, whatever, loser. Just keep it down during the day, got it? I need my beauty sleep."
"My names Edward..." he growled a bit more sitting over at his desk and beginning to place his notebooks before long though he yelped out as a piece of paper slid across his finger tip, quickly putting it in his mouth to soothe the pain.
Envy was about to continue keeping to himself when he heard the bond yelp from across the room. He propped himself up on his elbows, glaring over at him with a supremely annoyed expression. Didn't he just tell the pipsqueak to be quiet? His nose twitched slightly and he quickly noticed the blond seemed to be...sucking on his finger? No, such infantile behavior was unlikely. It only took a quick glance over at the notebook to see just the tiniest sliver of blood on the edge of one of the pages.
It didn't take long for Ed to notice he was being stared at, finger still in his mouth as he took in the fact that he was once again getting the dirty look from the raven.
"What...?" Ed mumbled out between his index finger "I cut my finger" like the other deserved an excuse for the small meaningless noise. Taking his finger out of his mouth to check it he noticed it wasn't that deep but boy it stung the blood still running.
The side of the raven's mouth twitched a bit at the sight of the blood still leaking from the cut, his eyes immediately focusing on the crimson fluid. After a moment though, he diverted his gaze and rolled back over, scoffing. "Tch. Be more careful. Its bad enough having a room mate. I don't want a klutzy one."
Ed twitched his eye in irritation, "I'm not a klutz!" This guy...grabbin the edge of his sleeve he held his finger onto it, wiping the small bit of blood that was on it off. "Come down with the attitude."
"Right. You've been here for how long now? And you already got your dumb ass hurt. Klutz." Envy grumbled a bit as he buried his head into the pillow as if trying to muffle the whole exchange itself. "Now keep it down, already."
"..." there was no words to describe how Ed felt about this guy other than he couldn't last the whole year with him, but to really annoy the other would be to stay the whole year. Making as much noise as possible, grabbing his bag he walked out the door, intentionally slamming it behind him
"Fucking hell! Keep it down, you stupid shrimp!" The raven shouted after him when the door slammed shut behind the blond. The earlier noise wasn't too excruciating loud, but the door slamming definitely was. Hearing the shouting from behind the door, the blond could only give off a smile that he at least gave a last bit of annoyance before his orientation.
