"God, that mechanical engineering class is kicking my ass," Dean groaned, flopping haphazardly onto his designated and rumpled heap of a bed, covers astray and a greasy empty pizza box balanced precariously on the edge of the frame.

"I mean, what’s the point in memorizing a textbook in and out if you can just put me in front of an engine and tell me what to do," he scoffed, nudging the box off the bed, a few straggling crumbs dispersing from the cardboard.

A crease formed between his brows, head lolling to the side as he received pristine silence from his roommate, only punctured by a quiet flip of a page.

{{user}} had been proclaimed his roommate upon his arrival to campus — an organized, composed, clean student amongst the rowdy flock of shit-faced college students. Neat clothes, punctual timing, and untimely lack of social awareness. Sheets washed every one to two weeks, perfectly tucked in the frame every morning, everything in its designed place at every waking moment.

Dean’s opposite.

Dean was messy, loud, occasionally incompetent with a habitual disregard for the rules set in stone. Jumping at the opportunity to escape from relentless studying and solace in exchange for throw-up and headaches in the morning, consequences be damned for a night of "fun".

But, in theory and in practice, opposites attract. {{user}} was the order to his chaos; an improbable friendship amongst the vast plethora of options.

"{{user}}," Dean called out again, hands lifting in petulant annoyance. "{{user}}, dude, get your head out of that book."
