Alex threw on a random hoodie he had found on the floor of his dormitory and grabbed a belt from his half open closet.
Picking up his phone from his bedside table, and his keys he headed for the door, locking it behind him.
He walked down the long corridor that would take him to the girls corridor and kept his eye out for the right number.
Alex stopped at the dorm marked 'Room Two' and knocked twice.

Meadow almost dropped her sketchbook when she heard the knocks. Looking down and realizing she was just hearing a sports bra Meadow dropped her sketchbook and grabbed a sweater off her dresser. Meadow skipped over to the door and opened it quickly.
"Alex! Come in to my humble abode." she said. Her dorm was spotless because Meadow was the world's largest clean freak. She walked over to her bed put her sketchbook on her desk.

Alex walked into the room, his keys jangling annoyingly in his hoodie pocket. He glanced around his friends dorm, "How can you live like this!?" He asked sarcastically, as he pretended there was a large mess.
He walked over to her side of the room, and helped himself to her chair at the desk. He picked up her infamous sketchbook, "Can I look?" He asked before flicking through the pages.

"I can't stand messes. It's an obsessive thing," Meadow said laughing. She smoothed a crinkle in the comforter. "It makes Claire happy, because I'm always cleaning." Meadow looked as Alex opened her sketchbook. "Yeah, If you want. It's not much." Meadow looked apprehensive as Alex opened her book.

Alex grinned, "I see" he laughed, "Fancy coming over to Joe and my dorm?" He offered, "Its a right mess... well my side" He added truthfully.
He flicked through the pages of Meadows sketchbook carefully and slowly, "These are amazing" He said honestly, "Where did you learn to draw?" He asked, shutting the book and placing it back where he had found it.

"Next time we'll meet over at your place," Meadow grinned. "I'll be cleaning like crazy." She peered over at the open sketckbook. "When I was younger all I did was draw, so my parents got me a tudor. I've been drawing like crazy ever since." Meadow picked on the edge of her sweater. She secretly loved when people told her she was good at drawing.

Alexlaughed, "I can't stand cleaning...I prefer my lovely mess" He said with a grin, "That way I know where I threw everything" He said, thinking that is actually what happened. He once decided to clean his desk and spent an hour the next day trying to find his sheet music.
"You going to carry it on?" He asked, meaning drawing and whether she considered it as a future career option or anything.

"That's how my brothers live. I can't stand it." Meadow laughed. Her brothers were like a tornado and their rooms resembled a tornado attack. "I have to have everything organized because I can't remember where I left things."
"Yeah, I want to sit on a villa in Italy and paint the lanscape all day. Or be a painter on the streets of Paris." Meadow said. "Painting is my passion."

"Well Boys will be boys eh?" He chuckled, resting his elbow on the edge of her desk.
"I need a good clean out though..." He added randomly, talking about his belongings that were currently scattered around his dormitory.
"Oooo Paris" He said in an odd voice, "Nice" He laughed, "You have your future planned out pretty much then..."

"Boys will be giant messes is more like it," Meadow joked. "I can help you clean out. I am super efficient at cleaning, as you know from my dorm." Meadow nodded at the immacuatlely clean room.
"Yeah, my parents aren't too crazy about me going abroad after college, but they'll agree sooner or later. I have killer puppy dog eyes," Meadow said, grinning.

"Or that" Alex said with a laugh to her first comment, "But I can't help it!" he added defensively, "its not in my nature to clean..." He said making up a pathetic excuse, as always.
"That would be helpful" was the reply to her offer.
Alex smiled, "Well It's really your choice" He said, he laughed, "Sure that will still work" He continued with a nod. "I have no idea what I really want to do after school"

"No problem, I'll help," Meadow laughed. Boys were so clueless sometimes. Especially when it came to cleaning. She was the cleaning master, of some sorts.
"I'm lucky to know what I want to do after college. I had no idea when I was a junior. I knew what I loved so that's what I'm doing. I can't wait for college to end and it hasn't even begun yet." Meadow sighed.

Alex smiled gratefully, "You know I'm useless" He grinned.
"I bet your excited, I would be" Alex laughed, "Get out of this place" He said, although it wasn't that bad.
"I suppose I'll have more of an idea about what I want to do next year" He said pondering, "Definitely Photography or music.."

"You're not totaly useless. You take pretty pictures," Meadow joked. "You should go into music or photography. Or be a photographer for a magazine like Rolling Stone. It's photos and music."

"I take more than just pretty pictures!" Alex said with a laugh.
"Hmm" He said, "Thats not a bad idea! I've always wanted to visit the Kerrang! studios in England actually..." He said, trailing off. He smiled widely.
