VIII. Angels and Demons

~ Marcel ~

“Thanks for staying over Marcel.” She thanked me shyly as she tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear. “It gets lonely sometimes.” She chuckled as I smiled. “Nah it’s alright, I don’t mind.”

I wondered quite often where her roommate was as we were supposed to each be issued one at the beginning of the year. Perhaps she was a bit late with her arrival, or maybe something’s come up and Ariana gets to live alone.

What a fortunate soul she would be if that were the case. My roommate Jason, one of Harry’s friends, was unfortunately always in our room- either with a woman or with a man. He liked to explore his sexuality and what better place to explore than the university community.

Which is why I try to spend as much time as I can at the library or at the computer lab; I just didn’t want to walk in on another threesome again. Staying with Ariana was one of my escapes as well, and it was even better because I wasn’t alone or ridiculed most of the time.

“Oh and thanks for helping me pack my things.” She added as I nodded curtly. “No worries Ariana, anything to lessen the trouble.” I told her as she smiled. As planned we were going to Cheshire in the morning, and so to save her the trouble of packing blindly I helped her. Luckily she couldn’t see the tent in my trousers when I went to help her pack her toiletries and under garments.

“I’ll see you in the morning.” She said as she moved forward and pecked my cheek, waving cutely before shutting the door. I sighed in bliss and turned to leave.

Upon entering my dorm I could hear loud music blaring from one of the rooms. I wasn’t surprised when I noticed it was Jace’s room; he liked to throw small parties- party of one plus a woman.

He must be occupied tonight, meaning I was safe.

I sighed and pulled out my keys to my room and began to unlock the door. I twisted the handle and entered the dark room. “Jason?” I questioned the darkness and sighed in relief as I earned a low snore in return.

I turned on the lights and immediately blocked my eyes in horror at the sight of Jason completely nude on his bed with two men beside him, who were also naked. Don’t get me wrong, I was partially proud that Jason was open about his sexuality and exploring it but if only he could only refrain from exploring in our dorm room.

I huffed and began to change into a pair of joggers and a loose t-shirt I found lying atop my packed suitcases. I walked over to my bed and pulled out an aerosol can from underneath, then inched closer to the three men opposite of me.

“Much better.” I muttered to myself as I sprayed the three until the bottle was near empty.

I tossed the can back underneath my bed before climbing into it myself. I threw the covers over me and attempted to get some sleep.

Although it was hard when a little voice in the back of my head was constantly reminding me that I was sleeping in a room full of naked dudes. But eventually I did fall asleep and slept a dreamless sleep.

“Good morning sunshine!” Ariana beamed as she opened her door widely and threw herself forward. I caught her just in time and hugged her tightly, chuckling as she giggled into my shoulder. “Good morning to you too Ariana.” I chuckled as I let her go. “Are you ready to go?” I asked her as she nodded.

“Yes. I’ve got my coat on, boots on, and suitcases right here.” She said as she mentally checked off the main necessities. “Perfect, I’ll take those then.” I said, taking the suitcases from her and held them in each hand as she snapped her fingers. ‘Wait can you write a note for my roommate?” she asked.
