Dorm Room 210 [Private RP // Closed — Stalkers welcome!]

Caroline’s lips twisted into a soft smile, her mouth letting out a sigh as she turned to face Amber, back to the door.

“He’s a good person,” she answered, shaking her head. “He just doesn't feel like showing it, so he comes off as rude. Honestly, if that boy just tried…”

“Tried what, Caroline?” The manager jumped lightly, turning back, eyes wide as she stared at William. His hair were still wet, dripping, towel around his neck. Caroline scowled.

“Do you not know how to properly dry yourself, Will?” She shook her head. “It’s getting colder. You’ll get sick.”

William offered her a smirk.

“You’ll just nurse me back to health, wouldn’t you, Caroline?” His eyes finally flickered towards Amber, the expression on his face dying until it became blank. He straightened, looking back down at Caroline except far more reserved, the playful glint in his eyes going out like a dying flame.

William turned his attention back to Amber, staring at her for a few seconds before he nodded.

“He’s coming,” he answered quietly, moving to stand beside Caroline rather than in front of her.

Caroline nodded and offered Amber a small smile.

“It was really nice talking to you, Amber,” she said politely. “I’ll see you next time during practice.”

William began to move, Caroline falling in step with him. Both of them exited out of the gym in silence–William keeping his suggestive remarks inside and Caroline enjoying the quiet.

While they walked away, Jace came out, his hair still slightly damp, but not dripping. He grinned when he saw Amber, crossing the distance and engulfing her in a hug, picking her off the ground.

"Ah, did you miss me~?"

Jace bumped their noses together. "Aw, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting," he kissed the tip of her nose. "So, what did you do while waiting for me?"

Jace shrugged.

"Their relationship is a bit weird," he answered. "She's the only one he's not a jerk towards, but I guess that's because they have a sibling relationship."

Jace set her down but still kept his arms around her. “Where do you wanna go? I’m dying for some burgers and fries.”

Jace furrowed his eyebrows. “The guys and I usually go to McDonalds, but we can go wherever you want.”

Jace let out a little laugh, shaking his head before he agreed. “All right, you do the googling, though.”

Jace threw his arm around her, pulling her close. “Let’s walk.”

“Sounds good,” Jace lead her out of the school gate while she tapped on the phone. “So, how was your day?”

Jace scrunched his nose. “Well, that sounds tiring,” he said. “We took major notes today and there was a test, too. I seriously hope I did well. If I don’t, I would find my mom in dorm ready with a slipper in her hand.”

Jace frowned at her, bending down to give her a small kiss. “I’m sorry about that,” he pulled her closer, trying to think of something nice to say. “I’m glad you were able to come.”

Jace fell silent, not trusting himself to speak. He didn’t want to say the wrong thing.

“Oh, I nearly forgot,” Jace blinked, trying to steer the conversation away. “Caroline’s birthday is in a few days, and the basketball team is throwing her a party. You should come, too.”

“Of course it would be,” Jace kissed the middle of her brows. “It’ll be fun. She is completely oblivious to it.”
