Sleepless nights[OPEN]

[eli yi-min jiang]

If there was one thing Eli couldn't do right now, it was sleep. Weird right? The boy spent almost every day worrying about falling asleep. He was mentally and physically exhausted all the time, yet when it came to night, or at least this night. The sandy blonde could not for the life of him, sleep. He let out a sad little sigh and tolled over on his bed, staring at his sleeping roommate for a second, wishing he could do that too. Sleep would be great. He sat up and looked at the alarm clock next to his bed. 12:00 am. Great, it was late, he couldn't sleep, and he had class in the morning.

He got out of bed, finding the idea of sleep hopeless, since he'd been trying for two hours now. He grabbed his shirt and a pair of pants, quickly changing and leaving the room. Sure maybe he wasn't suppose to do that, but a boy had to rebel every now and then right?

He slipped out of his room looking for anyone in sight, and continued on towards the kitchens. His mother told him that he should always make sure he didn't have an empty stomach when he was going to bed, since it would be harder to fall asleep. Was it true? Who knew. So Eli made it to the kitchens, not seeing any guards around. Sometimes it worried him, the fact that he went to a school where they had guards. He never fully grasped the concept of really mean people being here.

He went to the fridge and opened it up, finding exactly what he wanted, strawberries. Red juicy and beautiful strawberries. Honestly one of Eli's favorite fruits. He grabbed the carton of fruit and set them on the table, looking in the cabinets for chocolate. When he found it he grabbed a bowl and poured the chocolate chips , putting them in a microwave to melt,

Eli always had a sweet tooth, it was his mother to blame for that, none of his friends liked them very much, but his mother baked non stop, teaching Eli how to do so also. He ate a lot of candy and sweets, one would think that he'd be fat, but Eli ate just as much fruits and healthy foods to make up for it. Plus the constant exercise, it gave the boy a pretty nice build.

When the chocolate was melted he took the strawberries and rolled them in it, making the perfect chocolate covered strawberry. The perks of having a mother who owned a bakery. Now they just had to cool. He crouched down, his lips against the table, cheeks puffed out, eyeing them with wide eyes.

T.K sighed as he sat on his bed, in the corner against the wall stroking Xander. "I'm hungry Xan..." he muttered to the feline, "let's go, before he wakes up." he nodded, glancing to his room mate before he stood and placed Xander on the floor. He paused for a moment then, listening for staff in the halls. Hearing none he opened the door and walked out, making sure Xander stayed by his feet. After closing his door silently he pulled out his lighter, twirling it in his fingers as he walked with the little ball of orange and white. He knew he wouldn't get caught. The staff just didn't give a crap when it got this late he found. Besides, if they did try to punish him for being hungry well, he'd just kill them. Manically he laughed, before falling silent at a mewl from Xander. He blinked and looked down before chuckling softly. "Sorry." he grinned as he kept walking.

He probably could've made it straight to the kitchens with no bother. Even with Xander. Normally he did, but not this time. This time he came across someone in the corridor and the stupid guy just wouldn't leave him be. After a few minutes of kicking and scuffling with the other boy T.K eventually had him down, lighter held under his chin. "Say it again I fucking dare you!" he snarled. The boy let out a whimper and struggled a little. "I-i said nothing f-freak!" he stammered out before yelping and screaming until Tai covered his mouth. "Shut the hell up." Tai tutted, shuddering at the smell of burning flesh. After a moment he shifted, leaning to yank out the knife he knew was hidden in the other's pocket, he could feel it. "Thanks for this by the way, they took my last one." He cooed before making quick and bloody work of killing him.

Once he was finished T.K stood, pocketing both bloodied items careful not to injure himself. "Xander, you can come out now." he called softly to his kitten as he moved the dead body up against the nearest wall. He looked down for Xander and picked him up, ignoring the blood what stained his clothes and body. He huffed, annoyed that he needed a new white shirt again and that he'd managed to stain his favoruite jeans. "Every freaking time. Xander, when's Kris' next visit again?" he asked, getting only a meow in response. He chuckled at that continuing on his way into the kitchen. He hadn't even given a thought to the fact that the horrid scars from the fire that covered his torso were now on display. no, now that he'd been delayed for so long - about twenty minutes - his stomach was growling at him with hunger. So he spend up and got to the kitchen, opening the door without a care.

He stopped though when he saw Eli and tilted his head, putting Xander down carefully as he took the lighter out of his pocket, just to make sure the kid didn't fuck with him. "Hungry?" he asked, making his way into the room. Xander of course stuck close to Tai, toddling his little orange self over, between and around Tai's bare and bloody feet. When T.K came to a stop to look for his noodles - since that was what he felt like eating - he couldn't help but let out the slightest of giggles and look down for a moment watching his pet trying to lick up the blood. "That's dirty Xander you dumbo." he tutted trying to nudge him off gently before he looked to Eli. "T.K" he said, deciding to give him name to encourage the other to do the same. He liked to know a person's name. Because even though he wasn't a fan of people or interacting with them, it was always good to know just in case.
