TW; none.

"Right, so where are we again?" I asked, scanning the fancy room we were standing in.

"In Karl's room, dumbass." Nick replied, flicking my fore head with his thumb and pointer finger. My hands shot up and covered the spot, frowning at the boy in front of me.

"Flip off, idiot." I mutter, sitting cross-legged on the floor, arms crossed on my chest. He chuckled, joining me on the floor.

"Who the hell is in the dorm, Karl..?" A voice said in a different room.

"Wait somebody is in here..? Oh honk." Another voice said.

"It's me, Sap, don't worry." Nick answered the silent question which was floating around the room.

"Oh! Hi Nick!" A boy with fluffy brown hair skipped in the room, his hair bouncing at he stood still in front of the doorway. "Uhm, not to be rude- who's that?" The boy said in a soft but peculiar tone. He pointed at me, tilting his head.

"Astrella," Nick said for me, also looking at me. He looked at my dumbfounded face as I suddenly disappeared and appeared in front the boy. "Say hi, idiot." Nick carried on.

"Hi- What's your name?" I gasped, looking at his hair. "Your hair looks really fluffy!" I said, smiling at him.

"Karl! Nice to meet you Astrella! Quackity, come here! Nick bought someone!" Karl answered, then turned around and jogged to the doorway of the different room.

"Comingg- Astrella?" A boy came in, looking familiar. Your mind was fuzzy but then it hit you.

"Alex? Is that actually you?" I whispered, eyes widening. Then, on both of our faces, a mischevious grin appeared.

"Ayo hoe!" We both yelled, running towards each other and grabbing each other hand, falling to the floor in an arm wrestling position. "3,2,1, GO!" And we both arm wrestled. Karl was confused whilst Nick seemed completely OK with our behaviour.

"Do they always do this?" Karl asked Nick, which he replied with a yes.

"They used to be the bestest friends when they were younger, but when Quackity left to move here, Astrella had to stay in our kingdom, she was in her room crying, she wouldn't even eat. I had to help her and so they hired me as her bodyguard." He explained, eyes never leaving my posture on the floor with a slight smile on his face as he was remembering the memories.

"They should be by now inseperable since they met again. Anyways," Nick finally looked at Karl, who was also smiling at us, who were on the floor giggling and updating each other on life. "Want to get some food for all of us?"

"Food?" Me and Quackity both looked at Nick with puppy eyes. He sighed, chuckling.

"Yes, don't leave the castle, we're just getting some food, 'kay?" He answered, resulting to us nodding. "And I'll get your favourites." He carried on, raising an eyebrow at me, as I shut my mouth on cue.

As me and Alex were walking down a corridor, a girl looked at us and arched her back, and did her hair 'better'. I looked at her, confused but then I realised she was trying to show off to my best friend. I held in a laugh, winking at Alex and kissing his cheek, then hugging him. 

I didn't particularly like it, but I did it for the sake of his relationship, and we used to do it when we were younger when somebody was looking at us trying to show off. 

The girl looked at me up and down, rolled her eyes and walked off. Alex let out a sigh he probably didn't know he was holding and thanked me.

"Please, that girl thought she could get you!" I barked out the laugh, doubling over and slapping my knee in amusement.

We carried on walking after my scene, until a cough behind me interrupted me. I turned around, looking up and seeing Prince Dream with an odd expression. He looked at Alex, swallowing.

"Who are you?" He said, observing my best friend's movements. Alex opened his mouth to speak, but I beat him to it.

"He's my best friend, Dream. Why?" I said, furrowing my eyebrows. "What's it to you?" Prince Dream's eyes softened as he again swallowed.

"Just.." He paused looking to the floor and turning his head to the left, which was next to my feet. "asking?" Then, he walked off without another word. I shrugged my shoulders at his odd manner, and turned around, putting my hand on Alex's shoulder and walking off with him.

"Ooo~" He cooed at me. "I think you've got a lover~" I widened my eyes, heat rushing up to my cheeks.

"C-curse you Alex!" I stuttered, walking faster towards my room, Alex following close behind.

Longer than I thought it would be, but I enjoyed writing this. BTW, two chapters in one day!
