Academy of "Monsters" discussion

After a while they came to their dorm. He opened the door and held it open for her.

Lyra smiled and walked inside their dorm.

He walked in after her. “Would you like then bathroom first?” He kept his wings tight to his back, but the way they rubbed against his wet jeans was uncomfortable.

"No, you go ahead. I think I will kinda start moving stuff around so we actually will have beds to sleep in," She said smiling at James.

Can I join in or do you two wanna be alone?)

((I don’t know. That’s up to Kenadie.))

James nodded, then got some of his clean clothes and walked into the bathroom to change. He finished changing and walked back out, stuffing his dirty clothes into a trash bag, as he had nowhere else to put them. He started helping Lyra out her bed together.

//if its ok, i would say no....//

Lyra smiled, watching him go. And then when he came back she grabbed her clothes then went into the bathroom and changed. After she came back out she kissed James on the cheek and went back to cleaning the room a bit.

That's all good by me, thanks for saying what you wanted instead of saying yes to try to be nice and having me ruin it)

He smiled and finished putting her bed frame together, then put her mattress on it. “Thank you for that.” He turned, and moved over to start putting together his bed.

"Want any help?" She asked, kind of knowing the answer to it.

He shook his head. “I got it thanks.” He got the first part of the frame in place and started making the second. He looked over his shoulder at her and smiled, then put the last piece in place. He stood and stretched, then put his mattress on his bed. “See?” He walked over to Lyra and smiled. “So, where do you want the beds to go?”

"Up to you, but that window over there," She pointed over to a window in their room, "That is where mine is going," She said nodding her head. She loved how the sun would shine on her every morning, and she would be able to look up at the stars every night. Lyra walked over to one side of her bed and waited for James to take the other so that they could move it over by the window.

“Alright.” James took the other side of the bed and helped her move it over and under the window.

"Perfect!" She said with a smile after both James and she placed the bed right next to the window. "Ok, that looks great! Where would you like your bed?" She asked placing her hands on her hips. But then after a small minute, she grabbed a few things that were hers that belonged on her bed, she placed them on her bed. A few boxes that had her name on them were then also placed on her bed, all before James could answer. Lyra furled her wings, and then unfurled them; trying to stretch them out.

James pushed his bed into place against the wall across from her’s. It should give him enough room, but he wasn’t sure. He tossed his stuff under his bed, then walked over to Lyra. “Mine is where I want it.”

"Ok, sounds good. Well should we get all the boxes unpacked real quick? I can go get some food real quick if you would like so we can eat while unpacking," Lyra suggested. She wore a bright smile. Lyra pulled her hair up ontop of her head into a messy bun.

James nodded. “Alright. I would appreciate that.” He kissed her cheek. “Thank you.” He paused, then moved to hug her and stopped. He was struggling a little bit with the move to a new school, even if it didn’t show very much.

Lyra frowned, she knew that James didn't exactly want to move schools, and she also knew that she shouldn't have pressured him to move with her. But Lyra had been accepted into the prestigious school, and how was she supposed to decline the invitation. She wanted to, but James had told her to go. So she did, and she asked him if he would go with her. "You can always go back James," She finally said after a while. She didn't want to stay and see his reaction, so she grabbed a light jacket, pulling it over her wings and walked out of the room and went to go get them lunch.

James shook his head. “There is no future there for me.” He hugged her close and kissed the top of her head.

Lyra came back a bit later with food in her arms. "Hey, what do you want? I got a little bit of everything," She said laughing a bit. She took the chicken nuggets and sat on her bed.

He shrugged. “I will eat anything you don’t.” He helped her set everything down and sat down next to her.

Lyra smiled, "How was school today?" She asked. They only had a few classes together, and even then, they were separated. It made Lyra's heartache, but she genuinely wanted to know how his day went.

James shrugged. “It was alright.” He flopped back on her bed. “Kinda boring. And I missed you.” He sighed and at back up, then leaned against her. “How was your day?”

Lyra smiled and brushed her fingers through James' hair, "Fine, I missed you too," She said, leaning and kissing him on the nose. "School will always be boring to you," She added, with a small laugh.

James smiled wide when she kissed him and laughed. He laughed with her and kissed her cheek.

(I'm going to say it, they are literally love birds)

(( Lol. Indeed))

(I love them together, very heart warming)

((Indeed. Lol))

//lol//

Lyra smiled and ate one of her chicken nuggets.

James flopped back to wait for her to finish eating.

"Arent you even a little bit hungry?" She asked, popping the last chicken nugget into her mouth.

“Yes.” He looked over at her. “I want to eat a whole horse.” He sighed, sitting up and readjusting his wings.

"Thats weird, and it also sounds kinda gross," She said with a smile.

//i think i am going to log off for the day :) might be on a little later tho!//

((Ok. See you then.))

He shrugged. “Probably doesn’t taste too much different from deer. Maybe a little tougher.” He finally got up and picked up a slider, then ate it. He picked up a few crackers and started munching on them, sitting on the floor and trying not to stare.

Lyra looked at James with a smile. "Like what you see?" She asked with a small smile. She spread out on her bed and stretched, yawning.

He blushed. “Yes.” He finished most of the food she had brought in. He hadn’t had breakfast and was starving. He looked over at her, leaning back, looking over at her.

Lyra curled her wings around herself. She turned so she was laying on her side, but without laying on her wings. She smiled at James. She loved looking at him. He was very distracting, but in all good ways.

James smiled a little more. He winked at her playfully, then moved and started pulling some out from under his bed. He searched through some boxes until he found his brush. It was nice and fine, a gift from his father when he turned 10. He turned and stood. “Have you even had someone brush your wings before?”

Lyra shook her head, and then propped her head up with her arm. "No," Lyra said, "Why? What is it like?" She asked

He smiled. “I really like it. I think it’s soothing.” He sat down at her feet and motioned her to sit next to him. “Here, we can try it if you want.”

Lyra nodded and sat next to him, her parents had been non-existent through most of her life. She never was given the pleasures of something like this. She pulled her hair over her shoulder and fingered through it.

James smiled a little a scooted back a little bit. “Could you please put your wing out a little?”

Lyra nodded and did as James said, she unfurled one of her wings and the tips laid gently on the ground. "Anything else I need to do?" Lyra asked turning her head to look at James.

James shook his head. “Just relax.” He started gently brushing her wings, brushing downwards with her feathers. He gently and carefully held her wing up so he could brush parts of it, taking great care not to hurt Lyra.

Lyra smiled watching James brush her feathers. He was right, it was soothing. It was just what she needed at that moment. James knew exactly how to cheer her up from a long day of hard work.

((Lol. Yes. Very hard work.))

He finished brushing her wing. “Alright. Can I brush the other one?”

//so very hard XD//

Lyra nodded and tucked the wing that James had just brushed in and let the other wing unfurl. She smiled, still fingering through her dirty blonde hair.

((Indeed))

He stood and moved to her other side, not noticing her hinting. He started brushing and smiled at her. “Have I ever told you that you have beautiful wings?”
