Sebastian Nekros
I came down the hallway in a mood so offensively cheerful it probably violated several cosmic regulations. Humming. Actually humming.
Every few steps I did a little hop, like some overcaffeinated forest sprite. If anyone saw me, I would simply drop dead on the spot to preserve my dignity, but until then? I was practically levitating.
Why was I so happy?
Simple.
I had successfully escaped team politics. I got to annoy Liam. And now I was on my way to see Belle, my emotional support roommate, culinary test subject, and the only person whose lap I would willingly die on.
In short, life was perfect.
I reached the dorm entrance and keyed in the code with unnecessary swagger, like the door had personally wronged me and I was showing it who was boss.
The lock clicked.
The door slid open.
I stepped inside and announced myself like a triumphant hero returning from the battlefield.
"Belle, I'm home~!"
Nothing.
Not even a disappointed sigh.
Suspicious.
