Roommates

[deutschykins]

WHO: Ludwig Beilschmidt, Gilbert Beilschmidt, Lovino Vargas
TONE: Awkward
RATING: PG-13 (To be safe?)
WHEN: Whenever it was the Gryffindors moved back into their dorms
WHERE: Gryffindor Dorms
WHAT: Ludwig tries to make (somewhat) friends with Lovino while making his loudmouth brother shut up about their secret relationship.
STATUS: Ongoing

Ludwig set his trunk down with a heavy sigh before collapsing on the bed. Finally. They were finally back in their own dorm rooms. Despite Hufflepuff being fairly nice and welcoming, it didn't quite feel like "home," he supposed. Which was more than he could say for the actual house he lived in with his brother and father.

Speaking of...Gilbert was nowhere to be seen, most likely meaning he had either gotten himself in trouble again, or was spending time with his friends. He would be back soon, though; after all he was the one upset by the temporary room adjustments for the house.

Blue eyes glanced over at the empty bed on the other side of the room, vaguely wondering who would be occupying it. The blonde didn't know very many people, and he was truly trying to rectify that this year. Maybe this would be an opportunity to make a new friend? As long as their new roommate was one who wanted to be befriended, of course. Otherwise, he would mind his own business.

Contrary to popular belief, Gilbert can take a hint when given to him once in a while...just not very well unfortunately.
With a "Ah, my bad," while waving apologetically at his brother, Gilbert went against his better judgement (or at least Ludwig's) and went to get closer to their new, potentially hazardous, room mate.

"But any way, hey this is great! Lovi is gonna be our new roomie!" As he approached Lovino, Gilbert gave the Italian a nonchalant smirk, all the while having what seemed like a staring contest with the other boy. Although Gilbert isn't mean-spirited, sometimes he can't help but tease others a bit. It was his way of getting to know people, even though most don't really see it that way.

"For fucks sake can you get any louder?" Lovino asked with venom in his voice as he dramatically rolled his eyes in the albinos direction.

He was trying hard not to get into a fight, the hell he'd get from his sister that wouldn't be worth it right now. He started to fiddle with his brand new designer luggage, it was a gift from his grandfather for entering in his last year of Hogwarts. The brand new sets of clothes on the inside were from his parents, needless to say they had spoiled him quite a bit this year.

"Now if you fucking get out of my way, I'm going to try and start setting my shit up." he said as he exchanged glances with the both of them.

Gilbert hadn't even been in the room for ten minutes and already the irritation began to show on Lovino's face. Ludwig knew that it took a great deal of patience to deal with his brother at the best of times, but right now he was just overdoing it. When you lived with someone for so long, it wasn't hard to tell that they were being obnoxious on purpose.

With a sigh, he stepped forward, grabbing the other by his upper arm. "He has a good point, Gilbert. Getting unpacked should be our first priority, shouldn't it?" The blonde spoke in a firm voice, raising his eyebrow for Gilbert to take the hint.

Just as Gilbert was going to respond to the Italian, Gilbert felt Ludwig grab him, grip tightening around his upper arm almost as if warning him not to do anything stupid. The act was further emphasized by his brother's tone. Gilbert looked at his brother in slight annoyance before giving a resigning sigh.

"Cheh, fine fine I get it." Pulling his arm away, Gilbert once again directed his attention to the other occupant in the room. Lovino was staring both of them down while tapping his luggage impatiently. Now that Gilbert was paying more attention, he noticed how nice the other's baggage was. Money isn't everything, but growing up with so little as he and his family did had left Gilbert bitter towards those more privileged. However, that didn't mean he was so bitter that his eyes didn't wander at fancier things from time to time.

"Damn, I keep forgetting your family is loaded. Nice luggage you got there! Gift from someone?"

"So long as you're out of my way, I could care less what either of you do." said Lovino as he directed his gaze mostly to Gilbert, it was NOT going to be a pleasant time for the three of them if he kept acting the way he was right now.

[deutschykins]

And they were back to where they started. Keeping his mouth shut was never one of the albino's strong points, especially around someone with money. Ludwig had to admit, it was hard to miss how nice Lovino's luggage was. It must have cost a lot; though he was much less bitter about more privileged students than Gilbert was. So long as they didn't shove their money in his face, he honestly couldn't care less.

"Gilbert, I mean it. Don't get in a fight on our first day back in the dorms." His tone remained absolute, almost daring the elder to argue with him, though he sincerely hoped Gilbert would just listen to him this time. There would be tension if it ended here, yes, but better that than an all out brawl.

Its was fun rousing up everyone, but Gilbert no longer was up for both Lovino AND his brother looking like they wanted to outright sock him in the face. He didn't need to go to the hospital wing again. 'Bet the Nurse is sick seeing me all the time anyway hehe.' Finally taking the hint from his brother, Gilbert gave an over dramatized sigh.

"Ok fine fine we'll go deal with our stuff and get out of your hair," Gilbert directed at Lovino. Patting his brother on the shoulder to assure him that he was done messing around, Gilbert headed over to the bed to where he already dropped his luggage on before hand.

[pomodoroo]

"Keep it that way! I do not want to fucking deal with you acting like an obnoxious brat every single day just because YOU think it's funny. I already deal with enough bullshit from my little brother and older sister and I don't need to be having headaches in my own damn dorm." He had his fingertips digging into the leather of his suitcase so hard his nails turned white, it was taking his entire willpower to not throw the damn thing out the window.

[deutschykins]

A relieved sigh left Ludwig's mouth once Gilbert retreated, following suit shortly after. He could only pray that the outburst from both his brother and Lovino was a one time thing--though he highly doubted it. Silence overtook them after the Italian's last remark, Ludwig glancing over at Gilbert to make sure he would hold his tongue.

[preussen_blau]

Gilbert look over his shoulder at his new short tempered roommate and snorted as some sort acknowledgement before turn back towards his things to unpack. "Yeah yeah what ever, I said I'd get out of your hair right? I'm not that horrible to always be in people's faces...well, don't promise anything later but details." While saying this, Gilbert was scrutinizing a random garment he pulled out of his luggage before folding it and placed it in a nearby drawer. Despite Gilbert's usual devil may care attitude, he isn't a lazy slob like most people like to think he is. Altough Ludwig tends to take care of the little things more often then Gilbert, his little brother didn't get his obsessive meticulousness from just anyone.

"It's not like you've done a good job of staying out of my fucking way the past seven years we've been here though, now have you?" Lovino asked with agitation in his voice. He knew he should of stopped talking, but the longer he was around the two Germans the more riled up he felt.
