"It basically says that you shouldn't do things that'll make you look girly like snuggling your pillow," Did that sound like a real reason? ... He doubted that his pillow was as snuggly as Messy's? Alec just shook his head. "Really, Messy. I would give it to you to snuggle but you'd make it... flat." You know, with all the snuggling he was doing to his own pillow.
... No. Just no, Messy, no. "Dude, I think that's the reason why your nose 'gets blocked' when you sleep," Because he was pretty sure that Messy was the one who snuggled his pillow too much. And he probably made it all flat afterwards. Poor pillow. "Well... yeah!" Basically. "But I don't understand what you're saying half the time..." He shrugged and pulled out some stringy sweets and started biting on them. Really, they needed to have these discussions more often. ... He was hearing himself snoring?! "Mate, I don't think so! You're the one that's snoring!" Nod. ... Oh? "You don't like that nickname?" If that was the case, then Alec was going to call him Pinky a LOT over the next couple of years. They would be old grandpas and Alec would still greet him with that pink nickname of his. ... Oh! "Thanks mate!" Now, wasn't Messy being sweet? Why couldn't he be like this all the time? "Yeah, of course! Erm... you wouldn't... give a weird speech, would you?"
... Good? "I... yeah, yeah it was!" he said, letting a grin spread across his face, "It was a lot of fun just... catching up and... yeah." He did miss his Dad a lot, even if Hogwarts was great. "What about you? Were you happy to see your sister again?" You know, the one who was allergic to candy.
Messy's question made Alec just stare at the floor, completely at a loss for words. Why? Because he knew that anything he said to answer Messer's question was going to hurt him. And he didn't like that. "No. No, he's not me," he whispered, secretly hoping that he could give any other answer instead, "Erm... his name is Jake. Or... well... Jacob. And yeah. They're dating now." He also didn't know how to answer Messy's next question. Really, how did the guy manage to ask these kind of questions?! "Erm... I... well she's happy..." he mumbled, ruffling his hair, "But I don't like it. Not that she's happy! But that... well... she's with another guy. Sucks, really."
So Messy was not abducted by aliens?! ... Alec blinked at what the boy had to say next. Shipped away... by your own father... that didn't sound too great. For the first time in his life, Alec actually felt sorry for the dude. If they were girls, he would be cuddling the guy to make him feel better. But since they were guys... things had to be awkward instead. "Erm... well..." he started, keeping his eyes on the brown haired boy, "Erm... where did he ship you to?"
While waiting for Alec's answer, Messer was busied himself with eating more foods. He was hungry and nothing better than night snacks especially when your roommate was willingly grabbed some foods from the kitchen for both of them.
"Snuggling pillow is not girly." Isn't it? Make it flat?
"No, I didn't make it flat. Its still pillowy." he showed his pillow to Alec
"See still pilowy." he squeezed it in front of his face.
"I never snuggle my pillow when I was sleeping. I use it as a pillow you know like put it under my head." he told his roommate. Wait. He was seriously accusing him speak in his sleep?!
"Ugh. Mate, I don't speak in my sleep." Maybe he was just mumble in his sleep and its definitely different from him speaks in his sleep. He put his right hand on Alec's right shoulder.
"Mate, I get it that its hard for you knowing that you're snoring. Don't worry I won't tell anyone. Your secret is save with me." Nods.
"Its not like that. The nickname sounds..umm..girly?" Pinky. That's so girly, wasn't it? And he still didn't know where did Alice gets that nickname? As far he could remembered he never wear something pink before. Weird speech?
"Naaaah, I won't embarrass you." Much.
Envy. That was the first thing that crossed Messer's mind after hearing Alec going on and on about his time with dad.
"Umm..What did you guys do?" He hoped that there wasn't any sign of envy-ness in his voice.
"Yeah, I am. Its good to finally see her again."
Talking with Alec about Anya or girls in general was a bit weird. They never talked about this kind of stuffs before. But come to think of it, they never have a serious conversation. Every times they tried to start a nice normal conversation they ended up teasing each other. Maybe its one of the signs that they're growing up.
Jake? "Does he go to Hogwarts?" He never heard any Jake before. Maybe he needs to stop asking Alec questions but if he didn't ask anything he won't tell him anything. Alec would probably keep it to himself.
"You like her don't you?" That was more like a statement than a question.
"And don't give me that bullsnitch that you like her because she is your bestfriend." He wont accept that answer from Alec.
"To my grandparents." He didn't really mind being shipped away by his own father especially if he shipped him to his grandparents house. They always have the greatest foods.
