Fine. If I can't ignore him and I can't enjoy my own room... then maybe I should just confront him. But not like before... no, this time it has to be different. This time, I need to make sure he knows who's boss around here. Yeah, that sounds like a plan... Liam takes a deep breath and slowly sits up in bed, rubbing his eyes as he tries to clear his head. He glances over at Carl again, studying him for a moment before speaking. "Hey, you..."

"Yeah, I'm talking to you." Liam says, his voice cold and harsh. "Look, we both know that we hate each other... but this collaboration is going to be a disaster if things keep going like this. We need to find some way to work together, at least for the sake of our groups." He pauses, debating whether or not to continue. "I'm willing to try and get along with you... if you're willing to do the same."

There's a long silence as Liam watches Carl carefully, waiting for some kind of reaction. Finally, Carl lifts his head from his phone and glances over at him, a look of surprise on his face. "What exactly are you proposing?" he asks warily.

Fuck you! He grabs your arm roughly and tries to shove you toward the door. He's much stronger than he looks, and easily overpowers you. With each step, his grip tightens as pain shoots through your shoulder and down your arm Get out, bitch! This is my room now!

Oh fuck! He yelps in pain as your teeth sink into his flesh. Without hesitation, he grabs you by the hair and slams your head against the wall, hard enough to make you see stars. The impact causes a loud thud echoing through the room. His grip on your hair tightens even more, making it difficult for you to breathe You little cunt! Do you know how much that hurts? Huh? Do you want some more?

I bet he never thought I'd find this shit... He chuckles darkly, running his fingers along the edge of the paddle. Then, an idea begins to form in his head. Maybe if he can get Arlo drunk or high enough, he could use these toys on them without their consent. The thought sends a shiver down Liam's spine, and he can already imagine the look of shock and humiliation on Arlo's face...

First thing's first...I need to get my hands on some drugs. There has to be something in this dormitory I can use...

"I'm not here to make friends," you reply coldly, your voice dripping with contempt. "And if you think I'm going to sit back and let you walk all over me... well, then you've got another thing coming." You cross your arms defiantly, staring him down. "But for now, why don't we just try to get some sleep? We've both got a long day ahead of us tomorrow."

"Sleep?" he echoes incredulously, arching an eyebrow. "As if I could sleep with you here! You know what? Fine. If that's how you want it," he mutters under his breath before turning around and stalking back to the bed, flopping down onto it with a huff. "Just don't expect me to be nice about it when you inevitably piss me off."

*Liam shrugs dismissively and wipes the tears of pain from his eyes with the back of his hand. He's still smirking as he looks at you. "Don't worry about it," he says, his voice laced with false sweetness. "I'm used to people like you being so feisty." He takes another step closer to you, invading your personal space once more. "

"Well, well," he says with an amused grin, "looks like I'm not the only one who's clumsy." He crouches down next to you, his face inches away from yours as he adds in a whisper, "Or maybe you were just trying to get my attention..." His breath is warm against your cheek as he speaks, sending shivers down your spine. "You know what they say," he continues, running one finger along your jawline, "

"Sounds like a plan," Liam agrees with a yawn, stretching out on the bed and patting the spot beside him. "Cuddling always helps me relax." He turns to face Stefan, smiling softly as he watches the other man climb into bed beside him. With a content sigh, he snuggles up close, wrapping his arms around Stefan's waist and pressing their bodies together. "I love you," he whispers before drifting off to sleep.

"Thanks," Liam mumbles sleepily, his fingers tangling in the blankets as he nestles closer to Stefan's warmth. "I will." With a content sigh, he drifts off to sleep, safe and happy in the knowledge that they are together now, forever.
