Capítulo 3: Chapter 3
Caira, Briar, and Rosalyn walked to the center dorm building and walked in. The first floor was enormous. There was a cafe in the corner on the right and a small common area with lots of plush chairs paired up and scattered around the other space on the floor. Scattered around and between them were chairs and tables, some with students studying or reading and others empty, but with abandoned board games.
"Caira!" Briar called. She and Rosalyn were standing in front of an elevator as the door dinged and opened. They walked into and held it open as Caira ran to it and rushed in.
Rosalyn pushed the button for the ninth floor, and then pushed the button to close the doors when someone else called out, "Wait! Hold the lift!"
Two couples rushed in, the two of the girls giggled and pressed their heads together, muttering and whispering to each other as they laughed. The guy slung his arm around his girlfriend and she coquettishly batted her lashes up at him. Caira became distinctly uncomfortable as the girl got closer and closer to the guy. All of the occupants in the elevator sighed gratefully as they got off on the fourth floor.
The other couple got off on the sixth floor and Briar turned to talk to Rosalyn and Caira as the doors closed, "That first couple, Kelly and Sean. It's honestly disgusting."
"There is a time and a place," Rosalyn said shaking her head.
"Ya, but an elevator with other people really isn't it. Especially not with your fifth different guy a month."
"The guy isn't the problem, fifth or not. It's just the gross PDA. Like, keep it in your room, please? The rest of us really don't need or want to see it."
The elevator dinged, opening on the ninth floor and bringing an end to the conversation. All three walked out of the elevator and down the hallway.
This is us," Rosalyn said, walking and stopping in front of a door with a plaque reading 906 on it. She unlocked the door and stepped inside, "The dorm is more of a suite which is nice. There is a kitchenette, for emergency snacks and the like, a small living room, and a bathroom. There is also a bathroom at the end of the hallway if you need it. This suite has three rooms. "
"That is mine." Rosalyn pointed to the door painted with a pair of black wings shot through with silver after we walked into the common area.
Briar pointed to the door next to Rosalyn's, with Hunter sigil on it, a bow shooting a dagger. The bow was a much darker color than the white door it was painted on. The handle of the dagger matched that of the bow. "That is my room. The room over there is yours." Briar pointed to another door, this one on the other side of the living room/kitchen and painted with purple scales in the corners.
Rosalyn walked into it and opened one of the windows on the outside wall. A light breeze blew inside. Caira followed Rosalyn in and looked around her new room. The bed was pushed against the same wall with the door and her suitcases had been placed at the end of the bed near the closet.
"I'll leave you to get unpacked. Don't worry about the uniforms. The school allows each student a sort of allowance to get the uniforms and books required for the school year. Tomorrow is Orientation Day and the day after we're going shopping. We can join the masses to get our uniforms and books for the year." Rosalyn walked back into the Common Room.
Caira walked to the bed, sitting down on it, and smoothed her hand over the duvet cover. It was nice, but Caira was glad she packed her quilt from home. Standing up and retrieving the quilt out the top of one of her suitcases, she spread the quilt over the top of the bed. She got her toiletry kit out and set it on top of the quilt. She pulled out her pajamas, leaving the rest of her clothes to be unpacked and put away.
Starting to get tired and done unpacking, Caira walked out of her room and into the bathroom to get ready for bed. After washing her face and brushing her teeth and hair, she was heading back to her room to put her pajamas on when Rosalyn invited Caira to watch some tv with her. She accepted, sitting down and pulling the blanket on the end of the couch around her. Rosalyn turned back to the tv, flipping through tv shows and movies.
"Do you have a preference on what we watch?" She asked Caira.
"I don't care, whatever you like. I don't think any of my shows are here on your tv."
"They might be. What do you watch?" Rosalyn looked at Caira, taking a break from her distracted channel flipping.
Caira stopped fiddling with the blanket and looked up, "Nah, I'm ok. I'm curious as to what you watch."
Rosalyn laughed, "Don't judge me, but it's mostly human reality shows."
Briar chose that moment to walk out of her room in comfy sweats and joined the conversation, "Judge her all you want, Caira. I tease her mercilessly for watching them."
Rosalyn frowned at Briar, "And yet you watch them with me, so what does that say about you?"
"It says that the extra-species show gets boring. You can only watch so many stereotypes before you're bored. Honestly, as soon as the ES shows get better plots and more than five basic personalities, I'll probably switch back," Briar shrugged. "Until then, it's human dramas all the way."
Caira nodded in agreement, "It's the same with my family. My big sisters introduced us to human TV and now I'm hooked. Although, there are a couple of good shows that the studio, in the next city over, produces."
Caira, Briar, and Rosalyn all chatted until they decided on the newest episode of the Unnatural. After it was finished, Caira stood up and stretched. She wished the other two a good night and then went back to her room.
Caira walked in and closed the door softly behind her. She walked to the window and closed it and then padded softly to the closet to pull out her pajamas.
Once Caira's pajamas were on, she burrowed under her sheets, glad to be able to sleep finally. She was exhausted from traveling all day and settling into her new home.
