Some people you can easily read right away. When they're happy, when they're sad, when they're pissed off. Some, you never really know what goes inside their little heads, probably never will. And others you think you know, but when it turns out you don't, it smacks you right in the head.

"Game, Set, and Match to Gary Ferlong!"
"Nice game there."
"How come you're so peppy even though you lost?"
"One game, Squib. One game. Besides, can't a guy be happy his old pal's gotten out of his slump?"
Squib rolled his eyes and grinned. Sebastian said the dorkiest, lamest things, but he still managed to stay cool.
"Nice game, Squibey Old Pal!"
"Knock it off, Rick."
"Aw, where's the brotherly love around here?"
"Dude, get off me!" Sebastian smiled at the playful scene. Really, everyone was just glad to have Squib back. For the past few days, Squib had been on one of his 'mood swings'. He had been grumpy, irritated, and, well, not someone you'd want to be around with, especially not his roommate. Sebastian didn't really know what had happened, but he figured it was just one too many games lost. Squib was a hard guy to figure out, even after being his best friend. Sometimes, it was like nothing in the world could bother him. Other times, he was moodier than a teenager girl. He was Squib.
"Sebastian! Get him off me!"
Of course, his 'slumps' didn't last very long. A couple of days, a week. If he wasn't better in a week, then something was definitely wrong.
"Hey! Give that back!"
"Not a chance, Rick. Not a chance."
Sebastian grinned. Squib was back. He didn't know why, but this was Squib. You never got a reason. He just was, and you let him be.
"Attention all Cascadia Students. Gary Ferlong please come to the office immediately. Gary Squib Ferlong, please come to the office immediately."
Sebastian sighed. Squib was Squib alright.
Okay. So this sucks. I didn't know it was going to be this hard when I planned it. We'll see if anyone, and I mean anyone, is interested. Then I'll decide whether to continue or not. Review you guys!
