   "When we get back can we watch a movie?"

   Looking down and moving the bag to be slung around your other arm, you raised a brow. "Did you finish your homework?"

   Luca nodded rapidly, to which you laughed through your nose and pat his head. "Alright, alright, fine. We can watch a movie."

   He threw his arms up in victory, "We're gonna watch the Sonic movie!"

   "I still think Tails is better."
"You're just wrong, but okay."
   "How dare you? Tails is a treasure to this world."
   "So is Sonic!"
   "He's a glorified blue hedgehog."
   "Hedgehogs are cool!"
   "They're dumb."
   "You're dumb."
   "No."
   "Yes."
   "No."
   "Yes."

Sighing, you gripped your hair as the glare of the screen burned your eyes. Luca had gone to bed in the spare bedroom of the dorm a while ago, but here you were at one am doing work. Eyes drifting down to the clock on the bottom of the screen the word 'Wed' and 1:21 am flashed back. Technically yesterday, you finally took Luca to get a costume instead of earlier in the week on Saturday like you planned. After the incident on Friday of literally witnessing a masked guy possibly unalive people, you had to take a day to yourself to regroup. It disturbed you from how you didn't have a reaction to what you witnessed, not the event itself. It had bothered you so much, you couldn't get out of bed on Saturday. On Sunday, Luca probably sensed you were still out of it and simply wanted to stay inside drawing all day. You were thankful for it, but still felt bad.

   Thinking about the event, your eyes drifted to the side as you stared at your closed sketchbook. Frowning, you sighed and dug the ends of your palms into your eyes in an attempt to wake up more. Did you draw the random stranger that saved you? Yes. Yes you did. Only! Only, because you were bored and the memory of Friday wouldn't stop harassing you. Was it strange? Yes, most definitely. But then again, you are an artist that draws anything that peaks your interest. Ha, what are you turning into? An Albedo kinnie?

Gritting your teeth, your head plopped down onto the counter of the island. You couldn't sleep, so here you were doing work that wasn't due anytime soon. It didn't help that the only light in the dorm right now was your computer screen. You knew it was a horrible decision to stay up, seeing as you had to wake up early to get Luca to school.

Groggily, you raised your head at the sound of quiet footsteps. Luca stood beside the island awkwardly, clutching part of his night shirt in his hands. Rubbing your eyes, you sat up straight and opened your one arm so he could waddle into a side hug. "What's up, buddy?" He waited until you stopped yawning, before he fidgeted and shifted his weight from foot to foot.

"I..I think I saw something in my room."

Feeling more awake, you looked down at the brunette who was covering his face in your side. His tone held embarrassment, like he was ashamed to admit being scared. Your brows dipped and you pat his head. "I'll go check it out, ok?" Looking up, he nodded tiredly. He stood back, giving you room to stand up from the stool, once you got up he gripped the end of your shirt and followed behind you. Sticking your head into the empty guest room, your eyes narrowed.
