Matt was already at the meeting, where the cast was meeting to get to know each other a bit. Matt was talking to Em when he saw the guy who would play Magnus walk in. He was talking to some of the cast. Matt couldn't take his eyes off of him. He even tried to catch his breath, but it was hard. Then the guy came over to him and Em.
"Hey, how are you two doing? I'm Harry," Harry said with a smile, looking at Matt.
Matt just licked his lips and looked at Harry. That's when Em jumped in.
"Hey, I'm Emeraude, but everyone calls me Em, and this grumpy guy is Matthew or just Matt," Em smirked.
"Oh, so you're Alexander," Harry said with another smile.
Matt just looked at him, "Yes, I will be playing him."
Harry smiled and nodded.
"Well, guys, not that this isn't titillating, but I need to talk to Katherine about rooming together. Bye, you too. Oh, Matt, why don't you room with Harry if he has room?"
Matt looked at Em crazily as she walked off smiling.
"You looking for a place to stay?"
"Yes, but it's okay if you don't want to or don't have room."
"Well, I have a room if you want it," Harry told Matt.
Matt smiled," Okay, it will be only a few weeks till they finish my apartment."
"Okay. After the meeting, we can check it out and maybe grab dinner on the way."
"Sounds good," Matt told Harry.
After the meeting, Harry and Matt stop at a little sushi restaurant. They decided to eat there. They talked about a lot of things from the show to the family. When they were done, they headed to their apartment. Harry showed Alec his room, and they said their goodnights and went to their rooms. Matt was lying in bed on his back, looking at the ceiling, thinking over the night. Then he heard glass break, and Harry hollered. Matt jumped up and ran to Harry's room. He opened the door to Harry, trying to stop his foot from bleeding.
"Here, let me."
Matt went right to Harry and helped him.
"What happened?"
When Matt didn't get an answer, he looked up at Harry, and Harry was looking right at Matt's chest. Matt smiled a little.
"Harry," Matt called to him again. This time, Harry looked at him.
"Oh, sorry. What was your question again?" Harry said, out of breath.
Matt just smiled, "What happened?"
"Oh, I was going to the bathroom and kicked over a picture. It broke, and I went to clean it up and stepped on some of the glass."
Matt nodded, "Okay, it's good that we don't have to work for a few days."
"Why?" Because you should stay off your foot and let it heal, we need to go see if it needs stitches."
"No biggy, I have those bandaid stitches in the bathroom."
"Okay, I'll get them and fix you up. Then go back to bed and rest."
Harry smiled and nodded to Matt. Matt did as he said, and Harry got in bed. Matt helped cover Harry. They said goodnight again, and Matt returned to his room with a smile. This roommate thing will work, after all, Matt thought to himself.
