A.N.- Here's the next Lore of Lucas. If you were wondering what Lucas was thinking during the sweater sniffing scene, you don't have to wonder anymore.

Last Time:

"Hi, my name is Lucas, and you are?"

He looked like a fish out of water. Apparently the school had to supply the weirdest roommate for me. It was just my luck.

"Josh." I tried to smile as his hands did some sort of movement that could be considered a handshake. My brow rose as I eyed the guy.

"Aren't you a little small to be a senior?" Doubt laced in my voice. There was no way that the guy was a senior.

"I get that a lot." He shrugged he picked his duffel bag and shoved pass me.

"I get the shortness from my Mom and I skipped a grade. I'm brilliant." Her answer didn't really convince me, but starting an argument when you first meet your roommate isn't the best way to go. He threw his bags onto the bed, but his aim was terrible. I think it's safe to say he didn't participate in any sports.

"So what are you into?" I grabbed some clothes from the drawer now the feeling of being watched was with me.

"Football, video games, animals." I rattled off as I headed to the bathroom. There was no way that I was going to go into more details than were needed about my life. I closed the door and threw my head back and placed my hands over my face to regain composure.

"What about you?" I asked, dropping the towel as I started getting dressed.

"Photography, music, films." Definitely not into sports then. Hopefully he would be fine with Zay coming over and watching the games on the big screen. I stepped out of the bathroom sliding on my hoodie.

The sound that suddenly pierced the room was I would have paired with a girly girl, not a brooding artist type. Apparently I wasn't supposed to hear it, because Josh couldn't turn off fast enough.

He looked like he was a fish out of water, I adverted my eyes a new sense of awkwardness filled the room.
"Maya, one of my ex's, won't stop calling me." One of my brows rose in disbelief. Even if it was his ex-girlfriend, he had control over the ringtone, unless he was completely whipped. Before I could reply there was a knock at the door.

I was greeted by an over eager best friend with a wide grin on his face.

"Lucas my man, let's go kill some Zombies." I thought he would take a bit longer for him to get there.

"Sure, let's go to your room? The room is a mess." I whispered trying to let my roommate hear.
"Why are you being so secretive, do you have a girl in here? Lucas you dog." He pushed his way into room, despite my efforts to stop him.
"You're not a girl." I let out a sigh, despite my best efforts my best friend eventually had to meet my weird roommate. If I knew Zay, he would milk this as much he could and I wouldn't hear the end of it.

"The name is Zay, stick with me and I'll show you everything you need to know." This was a nightmare, they actually seemed to be getting along. The last thing I needed him to do was tell Josh some good Lucas stories.

"Josh." They were actually bonding.

"So Lucas you ready to slay some"- I knew if I let him finish that sentence he would invite Josh to play with us.

"Burgers." I had no choice but interrupt him. He shot me a look of confusion, but I just nodded and hoped that was enough for Zay.

"Yeah...burgers." I groaned internally at the poor attempt of convincing.

"We better go soon, Chubbie's closes soon." He opened his mouth, but I grabbed him and shoved him towards the door before he could invite Josh.

"Dude, what's your damage? I was just trying to be polite to your runt of a roommate. Seriously, he's a senior?" My hands fell to my side as we began to walk in the direction of Chubbie's.
"There's something off about that guy."
"Like what?"
"He listens to T Swift." I watched in disbelief as Zay shrugged his shoulders.
"Maybe he grew up with a bunch of sisters. Not everyone was lucky enough to be born a single child." I forgot that Zay was out numbered in his house 3 to 1. His father works in the military, but he is gone a lot of the time. That leaves Zay to take care of his 2 younger sisters and help his mom.
"Trust me, being a single child is not all that it's cracked up to be." I grumbled in return. My stomach growled in return re-enforcing the need for food.
"So how was the Notebook?" I teased knowing how to push his buttons.
"Shut up."

"Zay, you need to calm down!" I chased after him trying to cool him down.

"She's just doing this to push my buttons."

"And she's doing a good job of it." I exclaimed while he shot me an annoyed look.

"She was just sitting there flirting with the guy." By the time they had actually gotten the food and sat down, they were only there for 15 minutes when Vanessa strolled in with another guy. They just happened to be seated near enough for Zay to take notice. When he heard her laugh his body tensed and it got to the point where he tried to confront her date, I had to pull him out of the place before he took a swing at the guy.

I knew that I needed to distract him, so we were headed back to the dorm to partake in video games.

"You know what? Your roommate doesn't seem so bad." He said trying to change the topic to anything but his ex-girlfriend.

"He's weird," my nose crinkled. "But I guess it could have been worse." I opened the door ready to spend a couple hours in mindless pleasure. The picture in front of me was that of my roommates with my hoodie up to his face.

"What are you doing?" He froze, probably knowing that I caught him red handed.

"Nothing, I thought I saw a bug." My best friend erupted in laughter.

"Your roommate is a freak." We left to go to Zay's room as fast as possible leaving Josh behind.

I cursed when it meant that I had to return to my room to face another awkward encounter with my roommate. Things were ever piling on the list of things that didn't line up. First the music, now sniffing things, it didn't line up with the rumors that were floating around. I sighed, maybe Zay had a free floor I could sleep on. I took a break then slowly turned the handle.

"Are you alright?" I didn't recognize the voice, and when the door swung open I understood why. There he was talking to another guy in a hushed tone. The other guy seemed to become aware to my presence and now I was the one who looked like a creep

"I'm so sorry, I didn't know you had"-I foundered as my voice cracked slightly, what the hell is wrong with me? I had to cough to regain my normal voice back.

"I forgot my controller." My excuse was lame, and I mentally kicked myself as I grabbed the object that caused this whole ordeal and made a beeline for the door. I couldn't have picked a better moment for interrupting what looked like an intimate moment between the two.

"That's your roommate? He's a freak!" I smiled a half cocky smile at the line, it wasn't the first time that I've heard that. I shook my head as I made my way back to Zay's room fully ready to forget everything that had happened today.

A.N.- There you go :) Please let me know what you think!
