He's a 2 year old Australian Shepherd. He has snuggle problems and loves attention. He's well trained to deal with Luca's panic attacks and the group's therapist. He doesn't bark much but huffs when someone walks into the house without making themselves known. He snuggles with anyone who leaves their door open. He's mainly Luca's but Maya likes to steal him though she never puts a wall between Goose and Luca just in case.
After Guest got their room assignment and schedule, they haul their heavy suitcase into the elevator and ride it to the third floor of the studio apartments the school is using as dorm rooms on campus. Guest expected one, maybe two roommates. Instead, five pairs of eyes turned toward the doorway.
I look over from the stove to see the last of our roommates walk in. I smile brightly at our newest roommate
I'm hanging a football mount on the wall and place my favorite signed soccer ball on it. I flash a dazzling grin in Guest's direction
I poke my head out of mine and Luca's room, paint splattered across my face. I offer Guest a shy little wave before disappearing back inside.
I look up from my computer to catch Guest's eyes for a brief moment before I go back to my laptop
