Welcome To My Humble Abode (Ken)

[Faust Spaulding]

Faust Spaulding

Silence was something Faust was both fond of and irritated by, especially in his current situation. Usually schools were places full of the ever present cacophony of adolescent voices but today was different almost; it was just too quiet. Sighing as he sat with his legs crossed on his bed, the young pink haired male decided he would just try to meditate or find something to do but he just couldn’t focus with all this damned quiet. Clearing his throat, Faust looked at the empty bed across from him and remembered that his new roommate was supposed to be coming today and he looked around the room at his pristine home setting. Everything was neat and packed away and he had a flat screen on the wall in the front of the room, sitting atop a large gaming cabinet which housed a PS4 on one side and an Xbox One on the other, both unplugged and ready to be played whenever. Usually he would play games with Charles, but his brother wasn’t visiting him today and now he was feeling… lonely?

Standing swiftly, the tall male seemed to walk over to the window and look outside at the freshly cut greenery, the sun dancing off his brilliant gold iris. His black and pink striped cardigan sitting atop his black undershirt and his black joggers firmly cupping his firm posterior, with pink and black socks lightly hugging his toes. The sky was as bright and blue as ever, and Faust almost prayed for a storm to sweep the island but not even a cloud sat in the sunny sky. That’s when he started hearing a rustling outside his door with the sound of keys right after, his roommate must have arrived, perfect. Running to the door and opening it for his roommate, Faust looked to the boy in front of him and smiled before motioning toward the room behind him.

“You must be my new roommate, welcome to my humble abode. I‘m Faust Spaulding, and you are?”

Ken had fallen asleep in the classroom that the student council uses. Rubbing his eyes he looked down at his rollex watch. Oh crap he was late. He had only been at the school for maybe a week, but it had taken a while for them to set him up with a room. The stuff he brought with him was kept near the office. Packing up his work in his bag he rushed to the office. Getting the key, and his stuff he headed to the room.

He hoped his roommate was nice, and he was a little upset he was late first impressions were a big thing with him. Getting to the door he set the box down, and unlocked the door. Barely pulling the key out the door swung open, and there was his room mate staring at him, and welcoming him to the room.

"Nice to meet you Faust, I am Kenneth Armorr." grabbing the box he walked in.

Ken looked at the nice room. The school accommodates the kids well, but this room was even nicer than some others. Two game systems sat near a great tv. The sheets on one bed were much nicer than on the other. The bed with bad sheets must be Ken's. Setting his box down on the bed he looked back at Faust, and smiled.

" Sorry I am late I got caught up doing work last night, and passed out." Ken reached his hand out for a hand shake.

The life with a new roommate has finally begun, and Ken hoped it would be good. Faust seems like a good guy. These two might not see each other much because Ken spends a lot of time in the class room doing paperwork, but Ken still hopes that making this new friend will be fun, and cheerful.

Faust Spaulding

Watching as the tall young man walked into his new room, Faust smiled before closing the door behind the man and looked at his side of the room and then to Ken’s. It was almost like looking at a prince compared to a peasant and it kind of made Faust feel a bit bad watching the boy with his side of the room looking so bland, but then Faust caught a glimpse at Kens arm. He was wearing a Rolex, something that Faust knew all too well didn’t come cheap so he knew the boy must have had parents who were well off, which made him feel better almost instantly. Seeing people who were struggling with money always reminded him of his days being homeless, but seeing people who were modest with their riches was always nice. Not that Faust’s brother, Charles, was very modest with such things and seemed to enjoy having rich parents a lot more than Faust did, but he didn’t pay it much mind.

“je suis très heureux de faire votre co naissance…pleasure to meet you.”

Faust said with his native tongue slipping out so freely, he was used to speaking both French and English in Quebec so when he wasn’t around people who spoke both languages he always felt odd. Shaking Ken’s hand, he looked back over to his expensive pink satin sheet, with equally expensive black pillows and then over to Ken’s bed, and he suddenly got the urge to share again. Walking over to his large walk in closet, Faust pulled out a squared package of bed sheets his mom had sent him as backup incase his own were destroyed and he held the blue expensive satin sheets out toward Ken.

“Hopefully these will be more comfortable than those scratchy sheets the school provides, I have matching pillows too.”

He said with a toothy smile ever present on his face and then he motioned his head over to his game systems and the large neat stacks of games to go with them while looking at the boys. Opening his mouth to continue speaking to his new ‘roomie’ he spoke in a joking manner while grinning with amusement.

“What‘s mine is yours, just try not to break anything. Or Charlie will kill you, haha.”
