Arthur and Kiku sat for a while talking about what classes they had and what hobbies they liked to do for fun. Kiku discovered that they both shared a love for reading and an intense love for tea. They continued talking even after they finished eating, Kiku didn't think it was possible to have such an interesting conversation about yourself with someone else. Eventually Feliciano came over and commented on how they were the only ones left in the entire dining hall and that they should probably leave before someone became suspicious.
Arthur and Kiku nodded and the trio headed out of the dining area and back down stairs. Kiku and Feliciano said goodbye to Arthur upon reaching their dorm room and headed inside.
"You two sure seem to know each other really well!" Feliciano smiled, collapsing face first onto his bed. "You were talking for a long time."
Kiku smiled slightly, sitting down at his desk. "I never thought I could learn so much about someone in such a short amount of time just by talking to them. It's strange." He replied, pulling out a few pieces paper from his school bag.
"You're starting homework at this hour?" Feliciano asked, sitting up and tilting his head slightly to the side like he always seemed to do when he was curious.
"Better to get started early and get the work done than to wait and turn it in late." Kiku replied, starting to fill out the worksheet.
Feliciano shrugged and grabbed a towel from nearby. "I'm taking a shower if you need me." He smiled, heading into the bathroom connected to their room.
Kiku nodded as he heard the door close behind him. He worked for perhaps twenty minutes before deciding to stop, Feliciano singing loudly the entire time. Kiku put his work away and looked up at the bathroom door, a small smile on his face. Feliciano often sang in the shower, much to Kiku's dismay. But there were a few times Kiku enjoyed Feliciano's loud singing, this happened to be one of those times.
Kiku slid his bag under his desk and laid down on his bed, looking up at the ceiling of their dorm room. He tried to think of what he had to do tomorrow, but he always seemed to start thinking about Arthur at one point or another. He always set his mind back on track when he noticed this, but then he began wondering why it happened. Was it because he found out they had so much in common? Was it because Arthur was the only one besides Feliciano actually willing to sit with him during a meal? Kiku wasn't quite sure. He was pulled out of his thoughts abruptly however when he heard the bathroom door open and Feliciano walked out, finishing his most recent song while drying his hair.
Kiku sat up, watching Feliciano finish with his hair and hang his towel up nearby. Feliciano smiled, sensing the stare.
"Deep in thought again?" Feliciano smiled, his head tilting as if on cue.
"You could say that." Kiku replied, looking to the floor. He at least looked deep in thought.
Feliciano sat at the end of the bed beside Kiku. "What's going on in that big head of yours now?" He asked, trying to stifle his giggles.
Kiku smirked slightly and gave Feliciano a playful shove. "You're being awfully nosey today Feli."
"I try!" He shrugged, a laugh escaping his lips. "But you've also been more distant than normal today so my nosiness is justified!"
"And how do you see that? Nosiness is nosiness no matter how distant I've been." Kiku replied, standing up and going to grab his towel.
"I'm a naturally curious person! The whole school knows that." Feliciano giggled again. "And you know that better than anyone considering you have to hang out with me the most!"
Kiku stifled a laugh, he was right there. Feliciano was curious about everything. He was always asking questions to try and get to know someone better or to understand a subject better. Lovino had often complained about it whenever Kiku was around, but it seemed that Lovino complained about almost everything if he could.
Kiku smirked as he walked into the bathroom and started the bath. Feliciano and his brother were like polar opposites. Feliciano was the happy-go-lucky one. Always smiling and asking questions and trying to get people to laugh. He would go out of his way to make someone smile, even if it was inconvient for him, and in most cases Kiku since the duo often hung out. Kiku grimaced at the fact as he climbed into the tub. He knew Feliciano always meant well in some aspect, but Feliciano also did not often think of himself when he went around helping people.
Lovino on the other hand was the exact opposite. He always seemed to think about himself and not really anyone else. Kiku knew that wasn't true. He knew Lovino cared about his brother and whatever friends he may have, he just never showed it to anyone. He was always yelling at Feliciano for being to loud and obnoxious or for another reason that pertained to the moment, but Kiku knew Lovino would be the first to punch someone out if he knew they had hurt Feliciano.
Kiku wondered if Arthur had anyone like that. Someone willing to risk getting suspended for protecting him in a fight or someone willing to go out of their way to mak him happy. He was sure Feliciano had probably done that at least twice, as he had helped nearly everyone on the entire campus multiple times by this point, in some way or another. Kiku smiled to himself as he sank further down into the tub. Tomorrow was certainly going to be interesting.
