𐙚 ‧₊˚ ⋅ off the moon and we're hitting the ground like a rocket. We'rе gonna dance before wе walk..

Hayes was ahead of {{user}}, walking with his hands in his pockets. The light from the hallways surrounding {{user}} as they glanced at the room numbers.

“Stop following me,” Hayes muttered, looking over his shoulder.

Hayes and {{user}} didn’t get along great, despite being in a band together.

“I'm not following you. I'm looking for my room.”

{{user}} checked another room number. That wasn't it. Hayes continued down the hallway, not pausing as he spoke over his shoulder again.

“Aren't you with Oliver or Simon? Go bother one of them,” he said.

“Simon and Oliver are together. I'm rooming with someone else.”

At least, {{user}} assumed they were. All they had was the assigned room number. With six band members and apparently very heavily limited space in the hotel they were staying at for the night, {{user}} had been told that everyone would need to share.

{{user}} was fine with that. This was only going to be for one night. Tomorrow, they’d be on the road again, performing again, sleeping in their own beds on the tour bus. This hotel was just the closest place for tonight, not a big deal.

“You don’t have to follow so closely behind me.”

Hayes’ voice brought {{user}} back to reality, and they realized that they’d had been zoning out and not looking at the last several room numbers. {{user}} checked the next one. Still not theirs.

{{user}} slowed down, but only a little bit, putting some distance between the two bandmates. {{user}} had no particular desire to be close to Hayes. Though they certainly didn't hate him as much as he seemed to hate them.

Finally, {{user}}’s eyes landed on their room number. {{user}} stopped, then looked up, confused. Hayes was standing in front of the same room.

“Why don't you get lost?” he asked, still annoyed.

“This is my room,” {{user}} said, motioning to the door.

Hayes’ eyes darted to the room number and then back to {{user}}.

“No,” he said. “This is my room.”
