It was late at night, around ten o'clock and that in common was the usual curfew time. The girls could hear local crowds of people from the outside laughing merrily and chatting gaily, as well as screaming about all sorts of nonsense. Folks around town never had consideration for those trying to get a bit of shut-eye indoors, but they never cared. Nobody cared in this town. This town had strip clubs, bars, and various entertainments scattered around that always made people loud at night. Always so loud.
But the two girls never cared, they had each other and they were fond of staying up late. Constantly, Alice and Megan were sleeping in the same dormitory with eighteen other people; yet they only shared food and drink with each other.
It was a dormitory with cheap three-tier bunk beds enclosing the bedroom; six similar bunk beds. There was barely any floor space in the dorm, only enough carpet for someone to walk in and sit on their bed. There was paint chipping from the walls, yet guests made themselves at home by decorating the wall beside their bed. It was almost a colourful, creative dorm, and it did not need to look so basic with just blue painted walls.
"I have hot chocolate," Alice stated as she showed Megan a usual purple cylinder pot of cocoa mix. "Would you like some?"
"Oh, yes please!"
It was a basic, cheap-looking cylinder pot of pure goodness inside. It was just a galaxy hot chocolate mix, nothing fancy.
"I love hot chocolate, especially in this cold weather," Alice stated with a smile.
The brunette girl zipped into the small communal kitchen outside of the dorm to pour two reusable mugs of hot cocoa, and she picked out two man-sized mugs for the yummy hot drinks.
The nights were getting colder as winter swept through the beginning of January, though fortunately there was heating in the dormitory. Especially around this time of night, it was a time to shiver due to the outside cold caving into the building.
Alice retreated to the dormitory in five minutes. "Sorry, the kettle was taking forever to boil the milk," she mentioned. Alice handed Megan a mug of freshly poured hot chocolate, all before she climbed up the ladder to her bed.
Within seconds, Megan climbed the ladder to the top bunk bed to sit with Alice. She nuzzled into the brunette girl, cuddling up to the pleasant warmth of her body. She even planted a kiss onto Alice's cheek, and afterwards, she let out a little giggle of embarrassment.
"I can't stay up too late; I have work in the morning," Alice responded to Megan's kiss.
"Come on...just for half-an-hour," Megan craved with a rosy blush dusting over her features.
"Fine," Alice huffed as she then pulled the bed curtains together. Even though they were in a dormitory, the bed curtains gave them privacy to sleep.
Well, more than sleep as Megan's gentle hand crawled up Alice's pink nightie. Alice snorted and grabbed the eager hand through her nightie.
