Tenacious Sky novel Chapter 3

"Class dismissed," Jason announced after the bell rang through the school. I stood and stretched before moving out of the way to check my schedule. Next was a free period so I figured I could go back to my room to unpack. Leo brushes past me and headed out the door. I said goodbye to Jason before I walked out and tried to remember my way back to the dorms. It wasn't that hard remembering it. It was pretty much a straight shot. I walked along the path with the many other students until I reached the dorm building one. Going inside, I waited for the elevator.

"Is there a reason you're following me?" A curt voice interrupted my thoughts. I looked beside me to see Leo waiting for the elevator as well. My eyes widened slightly. I didn't even realize he was there.

"Oh, I'm not following you. I didn't get a chance to unpack earlier, so I'm heading to my room," I explained quickly. He scoffed but didn't say anything else on the matter. We both took the elevator to the second floor and got off. The more I looked at it, the more it looked like I was following him. It got even weirder when we both stopped at the same door: 210. He sighed before taking his hands out of his pockets.

"Use your key if you want to prove that you're not following me," he said without even looking at me. I fumbled getting my room key out of my pocket before I stepped around him and unlocked the door. He brushed past me into the room with me following suit. I closed the door behind me and shuffled further into the room.

"I-I guess we're roommates," I muttered.
