MC: "I guess it would have to be Lauren."
*I grumbled* ugh... I must really shaken from her threats if I'm even entertaining the idea of being her "servant"!
*I paused continuing to walk down the hallway*
Well... she can't be all that bad. I mean she did get Alexis off the small student pathway so she can't be all that bad. If she really thought that little of us she could've just let Alexis stay on the pathway, right? I'm not just saying this to make my decision seem less stupid! That'd be ridiculous!
*I sighed and looked at the map to see where Morgan marked the L spot.*
MC: "Should be right here." *I looked up from the map to read the nameplate and it matched. then turned my attention to a doorbell at the base of the door. I tilted my head in confusion* "Wha? Why would this even be here? I thought tiny students aren't supposed to interact with giant students like this? Plus this is off the safety of the small student path!" *I shook my head at the bizarre design choice... okay mainly stalling.* "good grief... this shouldn't be as hard as it would seem... just think of her as a... lab partner! Yes that's it!"
*I run the bell and immediately yelped regretting the decision. I begged internally for her to not have heard it or not be in her dorm room. unfortunately for me... she was and she did... I heard her giant thundering footsteps approach the door. She swung it open and her voice boomed out
Lauren: "Who is... *She looked side to side perplexed* What the hell?! I thought I heard the doorbell!"
MC: "*I gulped... I knew I should've taken the chance to run but... I need to interact with one of them eventually so... might as well throw myself at the deep end, right? I yelled out up at her to get her attention* D-down here! It's me... the kid who fell onto your table earlier this morning!"
Lauren: "*groans* ugh... you know I wasn't being serious when I said I needed a servant, right?! I was just saying that to get those girls to lay off!"
MC: "I...I know. I just... well i just wanted to hang out with you, I guess... *I gulped nervously, hoping against hope that she takes that at face value and just believes me*"
Lauren: "*Rolls her eyes at my clear nervousness and grabs me forcefully off the floor to her face despite the rule of having to ask tiny students before picking them up* Listen here gnome! You know I'm an elf and you should know what we do to you! You are beneath me in every way and if we enter my room then you are completely at my mercy! I could kill, play, use you any way I want and not get in any trouble for it! Nod your pathetic head if your stupid gnome brain can comprehend the gravity of what you're doing wanting to be with me. Hell, even approaching me at all!"
*I sheepishly nodded my head. My face became visibly red, somewhat from blushing but also because she was holding me upside down the entire time.*
MC: "I mean... just because you're an elf doesn't mean you're necessarily mean though, right? I mean... you did stop your friend, Alexis from trampling anymore tiny students on the pathway, right? Why would you do that if you didn't care at all?"
Lauren: "*Blushes profusely, reorienting me onto her palm sitting upright* Sh-shut! I was... *She was clearly stammering trying to come up with an excuse for that* saving her from trouble is all! She could be expelled if she continued and injured a small student! *Her lips tremble as she looked away trying to regain her composure*"
MC: "I-it's okay... I believe you. Sorry, for assuming your motivation for doing that then. I didn't mean to get you so flustered..."
Lauren: "*gasps hearing me apologize for assuming she was a good person. She retreats inside where no one can hear her. and plops me on her bed* Sh-shut up! Don't apologize for that, pathetic... I mean... UGH! What's your name, Cretin!!"
MC: "Uh... *I look up at her perplexed by her behavior. Was she good or not?!. Reluctantly I spoke my name (Just insert your name here for the purposes of this, his name is still MC)* You can call me MC, Lauren."
Lauren: "*Sighs exasperatedly* ugh... Hi... *groans* MC... Gugh... Gnomes can't even name their children properly!
MC: "*I was about to protest and debate her point... but that would be stupid considering how vulnerable I was right now so I held my tongue* R-regardless... if you want to call me something else, you can always do that Lauren."
Lauren: "Whatever... *She mutters* Now listen! I know why you're here! *She grabs me from the bed* You just want my amazing Elf body don't you! You want gawk at how beautiful I am, don't you!"
Why would she just assume that?! Was she that sure no one else would want to be her friend that the only reason a tiny student would want to be with her was to just gawk at her?
MC: "N-no! I mean... you do look good but that's not why I'm here. I just want to be with you and that's that! You're... well... I think you were nice to look out for the tiny students like that and to be okay with me having the opportunity to visit you when Morgan put your dorm location on my map. It showed that, even if you don't want to admit it, you want a gnome friend like me, d-don't you...?"
Lauren: "*blushes looking at me completely surprised by my words towards her despite her, very, apparent superiority complex and rude behavior* ..."
How did Lauren react to this? indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
