Authors Note: Hello readers, I'm glad people are liking this and it'll take longer for chapter four because I need to write it and run it through my editing process which utterly tears it apart so I can rebuild it better. Thank you all for your support.
"Hello, my name is Alek I guess we'll be rooming together."
"Umm, hi Alek, my name is Der…er Dylan Sharp and I guess we will be" I stared at his outstretched hand for a second and reached out and shook it. Why'd I almost say Deryn, barking spiders that was close, guess I'm not as used to my new name as I thought. He turned back to his dresser, continuing to unpack and said
"So where are you from? your accent doesn't sound British." I plopped my bag down on the bed and looked around the dorm room. It was small but in a cozy way, each side had a small desk that sat in the corner, a small freshly lacquered wooden waist high dresser at the foot of the beds. The beds seemed to be adjustable height wise and able to be shifted around. The beds were rather bare due to lack of sheets but they seemed better than she had expected. Sliding her suitcase down to the foot of the dresser and throwing her backpack onto her bed she replied,
"I'm from Scotland, Glasgow to be exact. How about you, your accent doesn't seem British either." He turned, seemingly done with stowing his clothes and walked nodding as she spoke. He stopped at his bed and began rummaging through his own bag and said,
"Interesting, I've heard Glasgow is a nice place, and right you are I'm from Vienna, Austria." He turned form his bag as he finished watching her reaction, and small smile had broken out across his lightly freckled face seeing the look of surprise plastered across her face.
"Austria?! Barking spiders, what drives someone to leave someplace as cultured and architecturally astounding as Vienna, and come to drab, dreary always rainy London?" Alek laughed at this his eyes crinkling slightly as his smirk he had on grew to a full out smile across his face. 'Well he certainly is easy on the eyes'. He responded still laughing,
"Well it's the same reason you're here, LSA is an amazing school and I've always been more of a mechanic than an art student or an architect that Austria seems to just make in mass production." I had started stowing clothes into my dresser as he was talking, leaving the bandages and my feminine care products hidden in my bag. I looked over to his bedside clock which read around five thirty. As I was about to respond with a quip about how good it must feel to run against the grain, both of our phones buzzed. Alek jumped and fumbled around with his pockets as I scooped mine off the bed. On the screen it read,
New freshmen remember to report to the lunch room next to the flight field for a welcome dinner and orientation by five forty-five.
Alek whirled around to look at his clock went for his shoes, I started laughing at his frantic movements
"Jeeze time certainly does fly, we better get down there, I'll lock up you go on ahead." He nodded and gave her a grateful look and walked out the door. 'Well I'm glad me and Alek hit it off nicely, seems like he's my first new friend here'. Alek leaned back in and knocked on the door frame shaking me from my thoughts.
"Just realized you're really the only person I know here so I think I'm just gonna head down with you if that's ok…" he said with a shy smile.
"Ok" I said laughing "On my way" I looked in the mirror that hung beside the door and saw my face was kind of red, confirming my suspicions. Uh oh, I really did start blushing.
Second author thingy: I'll have a quick orientation part in the next chapter but I'll skip through a few weeks, I'll have a few chapters per trimester (get it like the three books) but there will be some Dalek good stuff in trimester 2, sorry about the slow start to this fic I just want to test the water, also I am starting a young justice fic series soon so if you are into the spitfire pairing then make sure you check in in the next few weeks. Have a good day.
