Filled with guilt, Jack returned to his dorm. He dropped his things on the ground then jumped up onto his bunk and shoved his face into his pillow. "Oh my god, I'm such a dipshit," he told himself. "Why the hell did I do that? Who would do something like that?". He groaned and continued verbally bashing himself. That's when he heard his phone go off, someone had texted him. Jack reluctantly pulled himself back up, then grabbed his phone out of his pocket. It was Eliana.
"Hey, would you like to come hang out with my roommate and I? I know we just met, but it seems like there's something going on, and I feel like I should help out," the text read. Jack smiled and laughed. It was nice that she had made that gesture. "Sure, that's cool, I appreciate that. What dorm are you in?" he replied. Not more than a minute later, Eliana texted again. "Johnson 242. I'll come out to the lobby and let you in the building,". Jack told her that sounded good and that he was on his way. He sighed, getting off his bed, and left, forgetting that he still had the shrink ray on him.
When he got to Eliana's residence hall, Jack saw her waiting outside the building for him, the sun reflecting off of her brown hair. She smiled at him, then motioned for him to follow her. "Glad you could make it," Eliana cheerfully spoke as she used her ID to open the door. "Yeah, me too," Jack replied. They walked together for a few silent moments before Eliana spoke as they got to an elevator. "So, I mean you don't have to say if you're not comfortable, but what is wrong? I can tell when something's up with someone," Eliana looked to Jack. He slightly backed away from her as they got into the elevator and the door shut. "You know, it's better if I don't tell you. I think you'd get upset".
Eliana looked at Jack strangely. "It isn't about the thing I supposedly sat on is it? Because that sounds completely made up". Jack looked at her and sighed. "That's what I thought you'd say, and that's why I won't say anything. How about we just change the topic and get to your room?" he asked. Eliana shrugged. "Sure, sounds good to me. But still, I'm curious about why you think that I sat on something, and why that would be so damn important". Jack paused for a few moments, then as the door to the elevator opened and they each got out, Jack incidentally touched his back pocket and felt the shrink ray. His eyes widened in surprise.
"You know, Eliana, I can actually prove that I'm right," he spoke confidently. She laughed and looked at him with an eyebrow raised. "Oh can you now? I'm all right with that, as long as you're okay with proving it to my roommate too, she's also skeptical about this whole thing," she said. Jack shrugged and replied, "Sounds good to me. Be prepared to eat your words, because I know I'm right". Eliana continued to laugh as she opened the door to her dorm. Her and Jack walked in, and Jack saw her roommate sitting on her bed. For a moment, Jack was taken aback by how casually the girl was dressed, but looked past it and walked in the room.
"Ashley, this is Jack, Jack, Ashley," Eliana introduced. Jack waved. "Hey, man," Ashley said and got off her bunk, revealing low hanging sweatpants and an oversized hoody, and highlighting her long black hair with purple streaks and dark eyes. "So you're the one who has been sneaking peeks of Eliana's butt," Ashley turned around and slowly moved her own behind around and laughed. Jack rolled his eyes and looked away. "Can't say I blame you, I mean look at that thing-"
"Ashley, just shut the hell up," Eliana interrupted. Ashley shrugged and did as she was told. "Anyways, Jack said that he can prove he was right. You ready to do so, dude?". Jack nodded and pulled out his shrink ray. The girls confusingly looked at each other. "What's that supposed to be?" Ashley snarkily asked. "I'll show you," Jack replied.
What are his intentions with the shrink ray?
