Chapter Text
Y/n only stopped running when he reached the fountain at the center of Cherryton, the water was still flowing calming the Alpacas nerves enough to catch a breather. "T-that was terrifying.." y/n panted to himself. "What was terrifying? Do you need help?" A female voice spoke softly. Y/n's ears perked up as he turned to the bunny standing a few feet away from him. "I-i guess not.. I just need to calm down" y/n said while making some space between them. "I like coming here to calm down too," she said with a warm smile. The pure white animal moved slowly over to the fountain, taking a seat beside the frightened Alpaca. "I don't think I've seen you around here before, what's your name?" She asked carefully. "Y-y/n, what's yours?". "Haru" she replied sweetly. Y/n smiled at the girl repeating "Haru.. it's nice to meet you". "Likewise, did you just enroll here?" She asked, noticing he had no uniform. Y/n slowly nodded. "Sort of.. I'm still waiting to hear back about that" The Alpaca chuckled nervously. "I see.. well I hope you manage to get in" she said with a smile before turning back to the water. The two were silent for a moment, peacefully listening to the sound of rushing water behind them. "This was nice but I should get going, you should too. It's dangerous for herbivores to be out this late" Haru advised. "I-in a bit, I'm just gonna stay a little longer. Goodnight Haru" y/n said with a smile. "Goodnight y/n" she said with a wave before walking off. As her steps slowly faded into the distance y/n was left by himself once more, luckily much calmer than he previously was. "I better go find a place to stay.." y/n muttered before standing up, shivering as a cold breeze blew by. "Y/n.. please come back, I didn't mean to scare you" the deep voice spoke suddenly from behind him. Y/n whipped around to see the giant carnivore staring down at him with a begging look. "Y-you!" Y/n yelped, stumbling back onto his back. "A-are you okay?! I promise that I won't hurt you.." Legosi spoke softly, reaching down towards the Alpaca with his claws. "Get away from me!" Y/n shouted. Legosi's ears flattened as he responded "Okay.." then stepping a few feet back. Y/n took a long moment to calm down before saying "I'm sorry.. I've just never been so close to a carnivore before" The Alpaca admitted. Legosi shook his head "i-it's not your fault! I should have better self control as a carnivore". "D-do you always do things like that?" Y/n asked while crossing his arms. "N-no! It's just.. you smell.. good?" the wolf said with nervous smile. Y/n squinted at Legosi before chuckling slightly. "You're not what I was expecting" y/n said. Legosi tilted his head, flicking one of his ears. "I get that sometimes.." the wolf spoke softly. Y/n suddenly yawned loudly, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. "Please come back.. Jack will be upset with me if you don't" Legosi begged. Y/n sighed before saying "Okay..". The two walked back to the male dorms, the Alpaca making sure to keep at least a few few between them as they did. "Uh.. so.. what made you wanna come here?" Legosi asked while rubbing his arm. "To further my education I guess.." y/n replied while anxiously pulling on his wool. "Is that really it?" The wolf asked while tilting his head. "What else would it be?" Y/n said while crossing his arms. "Oh um.. nothing.." Legosi muttered. The two were quiet for a moment while they walked, listening carefully for the housemother. "Your wool is soft.." Legosi stated simply. Y/n furrowed his eyebrows a bit hearing those words. this wolf is weird. "thanks Legosi.. your fur is pretty soft too" y/n replied nervously. The wolf seemed to light of a bit, half smiling at the Alpaca. "T-thanks.." The two cautiously entered the dorm to see all of the other canines still asleep in their same spots. "Goodnight.." Legosi said before crawling back into bed, this time moving so far onto the bed that his back pressed against the wall. Y/n crawled back into his makeshift bed, laying his with back facing Legosi. "G-goodnight" y/n replied before covering himself with a blanket and drifting off into some much needed sleep.
~the next day~
Rubbed his eyes as he lifted his head off his pillow, looking around the room he was in. All of the canines had disappeared from their spots, leaving the room in complete silence besides the ac above them. "Where'd everybody go?" Y/n said while rubbing his eyes. The curtains that covered Legosi's bed from view suddenly were yanked open revealing the large wolf with his knees pressed against his chest. "They're in class.." he spoke softly. Y/n jumped a bit, before giving the wolf a glare. "Aren't you supposed to be in class too?". Legosi was quiet for a moment before he half smiled at the Alpaca. "Probably.. but they wanted someone to watch you". Y/n nodded slowly "that makes sense, we did just meet yesterday". Legosi's eyes widened a bit as he said "Oh.. well you don't seem like a bad animal".
"I like to think I'm not but.. I've made a lot of mistakes recently" y/n spoke softly. Legosi nodded attentively, saying "Me too, like last night". "Oh yeah.." y/n muttered. "Did you.. hate it?" Legosi asked carefully. The question had to register in the Alpaca's head for a moment, coming out as "uhhh.."
"Nevermind.." Legosi muttered. Maybe it was just y/n but he was starting to feel cramped in this dorm, he needed some fresh air. "Can we um.. leave?" Y/n asked. "I.. think so, we just have to be careful". Y/n chuckled and shook his head "That might be a little hard since you're so tall". The wolf huffed a bit before muttering "I know.." Y/n suddenly moved over to his bag, digging around for a clean shirt. Legosi watched the Alpaca move, enjoying the subtle beauty that the herbivore had. This was only amplified as y/n stood up, pulling his shirt off over his head. It was overwhelming for the wolf seeing a herbivore shirtless, the wool that covered his body so bare and stunning in the morning light. "Fuck.." Legosi spoke without realizing. "What?" Y/n said while turning to the flushed wolf. "N-nothing.. let's get going"
