Ok guys, I am SO sorry for the lack of updates, but I had exams that I had to study for so had no time to write for a few months. Then I had stuff going on at school…and at home, but it's ok now. Then A-Levels started… oh the joy. Then Crocodile Tears came out (I thought it was brill!). Oh, and then, I went to see Elliot Minor in London, and they were fantastic! I got a Hug from Alex D!!!

Now, as I type this, I'm off school ill, working on my temperamental laptop that decided to throw a wobbly this morning… anyway, enough excuses, so on with the story.

Disclaimer: If I own it, then I love Chihuahua's. Which I don't so, yeah (No offence to people who like Chihuahuas).

Five minutes later, Alex and Michelle had arrived at room 79. The room itself was large, with blue wallpaper and a dark blue carpet. In the corner there was a large table, and nearby there were three beds, two of which were occupied.

On the bed furthest from him was a boy with short, blonde hair, who was reading a book on Ancient Egypt. On the bed next to that was a boy with dark brown hair, who was playing on a Nintendo DS. As Alex and Michelle entered the room, they both looked up.

"Lucas, Matthew, this is Alex. He's going to be sharing your room from now on," Michelle said, gesturing at Alex. Both boys glanced at him before turning their attention back to what they had been doing.

"Well, I'll er, leave you boys to get acquainted. Come and see me if there are any problems Alex," Michelle smiled, before she left the room.

Alex picked up his case and carried it to the remaining bed, which had already been made. The boy who had been playing on the DS set it aside and stood up.

"Need help unpackin'?" he said, strolling over.

"No thanks, I can manage," Alex replied, opening the case.

"I'm Matthew by the way, or Matt for short," Matt said, holding out his hand, which Alex shook. "And that's Lucas, or Luke for short," he pointed towards the other boy. At the mention of his name, he looked up and glared at them. Matt rolled his eyes. "Don't mind him. He can be a tad grumpy at times," Matt muttered to Alex.

"I heard that!" Luke snapped.

"See what I mean? Moody git," Matt whispered.

"I heard that too, dickweed!"

"Charming…" Alex muttered quietly. Luckily, either Luke ignored him, or he hadn't heard the remark.

Twenty minutes later there was a knock on the door. When Alex answered it, he was greeted by a girl with brunette hair with blonde highlights. He smiled at her, and noticed that she was holding a small tray.

"Hi. Michelle asked me to bring this to you, since you might be a bit tired to go down to dinner," she said, handing Alex the tray.

"Um, thanks," he said, taking the tray and holding it in one hand.

"Anytime," the girl replied, before turning and walking down the corridor. Alex stood there for a moment, watching her, before he closed the door.

"I wouldn't think about being her future boyfriend anytime soon Alex. She's Damien's Girlfriend," Matt grinned as Alex placed his tray on the nearby table.

"Who's Damien?" he said, taking the tin foil off the tray and looking at the meal. Roast Potatoes and Lamb, with broccoli and gravy, and a carton of orange juice.

"Only the meanest kid here! One time, I got one tiny drop of water on his arm, and he sent me to the nurses office with a broken nose!!!" Matt exclaimed, walking to the table.

"Sounds like a nice guy," Alex said sarcastically.

After eating his small meal, Alex settled down for the night. The bed was comfortable, and Alex felt himself relaxing into it's warmth before drifting off to sleep.

The next morning, Alex woke to the sound of shouting.. Blearily, he opened his eyes, only to see a pillow flying towards him. It hit him square in the face, before flopping onto the bed. Looking up, he saw Matt holding up a pillow with his arm raised.

"Er, sorry Alex. That was aimed at Luke," he said sheepishly.

"What were you two yelling about?" Alex asked, throwing back the covers.

"Luke hit me with a pillow!" Matt protested, reclaiming his pillow from Alex's bed.

"You started it. You woke me up by playing on that stupid DS!" Luke snapped, pulling some clothes out of his drawer.

"Not my fault your snoring keeps me up!" Matt retorted.

Alex decided it was probably best to leave them to it. Taking out some of his own clothes, and putting on his fake glasses, he proceeded to the bathroom to get dressed, smirking as he heard the familiar 'whump' of a pillow meeting its target.

Fifteen minutes, and a heated pillow fight and a lot of yelling later, the boys went down for breakfast. The canteen was enormous. There were dozens of tables, some rectangular and some round. Matt led Alex to the self-serve counter.

After helping themselves, Matt and Alex sat at one of the tables. Luke had gone off with another group of people.

"So Alex, where you from?" Matt asked, taking a bit of his sausage.

"Catford, London," he replied, putting some sugar onto his cornflakes.

"Want me to show you around the school after breakfast?"

"What about lessons?" Alex asked, starting on his cereal.

"Lessons don't start until ten, oh, and we need to collect your timetable from Student Services," Matt replied whilst squirting ketchup onto his plate.

"Okay, sure," Alex muttered, still eating his bowl of cornflakes. Suddenly, he felt someone behind him.

"Well who do we have here?"

And that's it. Yes, I know it's short, and yes, it probably seems rushed, but I've been busy and had stuff to deal with… I dunno when the next chapter will be up, as I am now doing A-Levels and have less free time (I work during my frees at school). I have the next couple of chapters planned, so, yeah. REVIEW please!
