So. Everyone's at class then? Might as well take a shower; it's not like I get the chance to without anyone walking in on me very often.
There's no lock on the door you see – Mello broke it in one of his fits of anger. He also broke the door clear off its hinges. Hence the lack of privacy. The door won't be fixed for another week.
I don't bother getting clean clothes – I'll be out before the others are back anyway. I strip out of my clothes on the way to the bathroom and catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror.
The boy looking back at me looks like he hasn't slept in a week and is way too skinny – the bones stick out from the skin more than they have ever done before. There are dark purple bruises over his neck and upper torso, courtesy of vampire-fetish boy. Damn, I look a mess.
The hot water is soothing as it hits my back. I groan as the temperature slowly warms me and I hear a snigger over the sound of the spray.
No, I must have been imagining it.
An arm wraps itself around my stomach, confirming that I hadn't been imagining it. The arm pulls me towards the body it's attached to, and I catch a brief glimpse of dripping wet blond hair.
"Fuck me, Matt! And you say my arse is skinny?"
He trails his hand down to the area he mentioned, but I just don't care anymore.
"No thanks. Please get out."
"Why should i? the funs just about to start!"
He moves the hand on my stomach downwards, with a determined look on his face.
"For God's sake, Mello! I'm not gay! Can't you just leave me alone for once?"
Now get out of there Mattie! Ack! Towel! You need a towel you fool!
I sit on my bed with the towel tied around my waist as I wait and watch Mello storm out of the dorm.
