A few drops of water fell gently on Barty's face awakening him with a loud 'yelp'

The boy let out a gasp as the water trickled down to his clothes; making him shiver at the process

"Evan, you fucking lunatic!" Barty yelled even before opening his eyes to confirm if it was really Evan or not, but sure enough when he did he was met with a proud smirk on the face of the blonde boy.

The two boys started bickering loud enough for the whole dungeons to hear, startling Regulus who was a sleeping mess on the couch.

Regulus opened his eyes with a tired yawn as the headache started to set in "woke up yet another day" he complained miserably, trying to move, but he soon realized that his body was trapped with another's.

The boy's eyes turned round as his heart beat fastened, almost having a heart attack. next to him laid an unconscious girl whose face was deeply buried in his sweater "Ew, get off of me!" he groaned quickly getting up sending the girl on the floor, but when she moved the hair out of her face; he soon realized that It was carmen all along.

"What the hell!" she mumbled tiredly, getting up from the floor.

"Carmen- I'm so sorry" he advanced towards her, supporting her dizzy figure.

"Regulus?" she asked running a hand through her hair "What time is it?"

he glanced at the rusty clock by the end of the wall only to realize that first class had already started "fuck, It's ten o'clock"

"No!" She groaned running up the stairs and stumbling into her room, trying to ignore the intensity of her throbbing head.

Snatching a towel and turning on the shower; she never felt more grateful for having a dorm all to herself, ofcourse it sometimes felt awfully lonely, but she liked it like that.

The hot water fell on her head first, making her sigh with content as relaxation indulged her, It was already late so she might as well use it to her advantage.

By the time she got out of the shower, half an hour had passed, but it was a relief that she had a free period for her next class.

"shit!" she heard a mumble coming from across the room

"Regulus, what are you doing in here?" she panicked holding the towel close to her body while he quickly turned away, his back facing her.

she noticed that he had already changed clothes, his semi-wet hair brushed neatly, though his curls stood messily and she loved it like that.

"I brought you coffee" he extended his arms, still his back to her and her heart warmed at the small, but loving gesture.

"I knocked a few times, but when you didn't answer I got panicked and-" he rambled but Carmen quickly cut him off "It's alright, thank you Reggie"

After getting dressed; she tapped his shoulder gently, still he didn't turn "Can I turn now?"

"yeah" she mumbled blushing under his gaze

Awkward silence filled the room as they both stood face to face unsure of what to say.

"Do you want me to do your hair?" Regulus asked pointing to her dripping hair

"Sure" she laughed alittle sitting on the bed, her back turned to him.

He started combing her hair slowly and it felt magical to say the least, and the fact that he was touching her, one way or another reminded her of last night's events; which she deeply felt embarrassed about.
