Xion is Officially Booked For a Date?

Xion was still caught in the heat of his embarrassment. His ears burned red as he buried his face in his hands.

What had he been thinking back then? How could he be so stupid?

He groaned and rolled onto his side, only for a sharp pain to shoot through his swollen ankle.

"Ugh, damn it!" He winced, rubbing his ankle gently on the bedsheet.

The ache did not subside, but his sulking and embarrassment were soon interrupted by a loud knock at the door.

"Xion? Are you still in there?"

The voice sounded unfamiliar to him. He instinctively wanted to yell, to tell the person to go away. But it was not his home for him to act this willful.

Patting his cheeks and willing his frantic heart to calm down, he spoke, "Come i-"

Before he could properly end his words and tell the person to come inside, the door swung open with a swish. It slammed against the wall with a loud thud.
