*THUD!* the man beside David, sat up abruptly in a flash after he heard a loud sound of someone falling down. He sensed something moving from the corner of his eye. He turned left and saw something he was never even ready to see. A white-haired woman was sitting right on the floor, pointing at him, as if she has seen a ghost or something.
"A-a THEIF!!!!!!" that was the last word anyone from the building heard until the people of the entire dormitory stood before the door of room 303.
"Is everything alright there?! Mr. Sinclair and Mr. Wallace?!" Brad knocked on the door first. All the Students surrounded the room trying to figure out that is whether they misheard or the scream was a woman's.
Everyone was waiting for someone to open the door... and suddenly a girl with her hair floating in the midair, her eyes widened, opened the door and was about to scream on Brad's face. But before she could do something, a hand from the back held her waist and covered her mouth. "MhmMhmH!" David was suffocating. At least her facial expression could say that. After the man saw David suffocating, he shoved her inside the room, and magically she landed on the bed. Afterward, the man closed the door and stood in front of the crowd.
"Oh Sorry, everyone! My girlfriend has some memory-loss syndrome once she's drunk. We were just sleeping after having some beer. She woke up out of blue and couldn't recognize me, that's why she screamed that loud. I sincerely apologize on behalf of my girlfriend." The man also known as Zane showed his sweetest smile to everyone. The crowd wasn't pleased with the explanation, instead, everybody was shocked after consuming the information Zane provided just now.
"What? Zane has a girlfriend?" One from the crowd asked.
Zane looked at Brad, his eyes are asking for help.
"Ok, Students as Zane explained everything, I think you all should go back to dorms." Brad motioned the staffs to take all of them to their room. And in a few minutes most of them were gone.
Meanwhile, inside the room, David tried her best to open the door, but all the time Zane was standing in front of the door and his hands were on the doorknob. This time David's strength was nothing to Zane. Zane kept smiling as he saw everyone leave. Brad was standing there too…
"Ok so Brad, I think I deserve an explanation." Zane's happy smiley face suddenly turn gloomy when he made sure that the crowd was gone. He crossed his arms in front of his chest, leaned on the door frame, and narrowed his eyes. After seeing Zane's cold expression Brad, the old man gulped and saved some courage to question him back, "Sorry, but Mr. Sinclair, I think I need an explanation from YOU." The old man also followed Zane's gesture as he adjusted his heavy glasses and crossed his arms too, "Where is Mr. Wallace and what is your girlfriend doing inside your dorm? Do you know you're violating our regulations?" Suddenly the door opened, and David stood before the two men, crossing her hands on her chest, giving both of them an are-you-both-kidding-me look. "I think I'm the ONE here who rightfully deserves an explanation of what is happening." David's lip turned into one tight line, looking at both of the men standing in front of her.
…
"So basically you two are saying that, this is the Boy's Dormitory?" a smile of disbelief appeared on the young lady's face. Zane and Brad nodded in unison. The three of them, were seated on three individual chairs inside the manager's office. Zane and Brad were facing towards David.
"What?" she narrowed her eyes and took a careful look on the both young man and old man's face. Scanning if they are kidding with her at this hour. Nope, they ain't lying, their eyes can describe what pure confusion is. "You guys kidding me?"
"Nope." Both of the men said in unison as they shook their heads right and left.
"If this is the Boy's Dormitory, then what am I doing here?!" finally she got into the point.
"Exactly!" Zane exclaimed, "You're absolutely right, Ms. White-hair!" David seemed to be disappointed after hearing Zane calling her that, "Sorry, but I have a name. It's David Wallace."
"Oh ok, Ms. David Wallace. So as I was saying…" Suddenly Zane paused, his eyes widened, he wanted to say something but couldn't translate his thoughts into words, and after some secs waiting, finally he opened his mouth, but said something different despite what he was thinking, "I see! Now it makes sense! Her name is David, I think that's why the system couldn't detect whether Ms. Wallace is a male or female, as her name is David." The young lady's and the old man's expression changed after hearing Zane's logical opinion.
"I think Mr. Sinclair is right…" Brad murmured as his expression trying to remember something, "Oh yes, I have the file of Mister… I mean Miss Wallace! An assistant of Ms. Darci came here to the administrator's office in person to book your room. He even said to book the best room for you, which is room no. 303." David's face filled with confusion after the old man finished his sentence. Zane on the other side was sensing something different from the whole situation, something totally different from what at least he expected the situation would be.
"What? Mr. Dan came here in person to book my room?" David's eyes widened. "I think I need to call someone." She got up and took herself in front of the door, turned the doorknob and left the room. All the time Zane's eyes followed her until she was gone. And now it's time to analyze the whole situation…
…
David barged into the room now. 303 and pressed her right hand against her chest before locking the door. She can't believe herself right now. Eye widened, David looked somewhat hopeless with her heart racing inside her chest. She was almost out of breath. "W-why? Why, from all the 7.8 billion people, why is this roommate of mine happened to be Zane Sinclair?"

[The Following Events are Bonus Content to clarify the whole situation! :)) Enjoy!]
Previously, when David was sleeping…
Zane got inside the room. He locked the door. He turned back and saw a lump on the bed. That could be his roommate, mentioned by Brad earlier when Brad called him. Zane moved towards the bed and tried to see the face of his roommate, but as 'he' (the roommate) was wrapped with the blanket, Zane couldn't see his face. The young man let out a sigh and shrugged. Then he left the spot to get a cold shower.
The water fell on his perfect silky hair as he took the bottle of 'Men's shampoo from the shelf and poured some on his hair before massaging his head.
'Geez… today was tiring…' he turned off the shower and started massaging his head thoroughly. Suddenly he smelled something flowery. Zane sniffed and found out that the smell is coming from his hand. He sniffed his hand multiple times to make sure of his doubt. He quickly took the shampoo bottle and narrowed his eyes to have a clear focus, and carefully read the name of the shampoo, "Girl's Wish Flower Extract 2x Volume Shampoo?" the young man frowned as he again read the name, "What?!" His eyes widened. Zane tried to analyze the situation for a few minutes. Who knows, the room cleaner has replaced his shampoo while re-stocking the monthly bathroom supplies. He will call the room clear the first thing in the morning. He again sniffed his hand and chuckled in disbelief, before turning on the shower. He never knew that women's shampoo smelled so… lovely.
…
Zane got out of the bathroom, while drying his hair with a towel. He smiled subconsciously after he found out that his hair is smelling flowery. At least his hair has some fragrant. He wondered if the girls' hair always smelled this nice. Nice smelling hair? Hmm… it reminds him of 'her'. Suddenly he stopped smiling. His smiley face somewhat turned gloomy and cold.
He stopped drying his hair and threw the towel; it landed on a chair. Then he noticed the lump of his roommate moving a bit on the bed. He smiled, looking at the lump on the bed. Somehow, it reminded Zane of 'her'. 'She' always used to sleep like that. He silently chuckled at the nostalgia, but immediately his expression changed. His lips turned into a tight line. Why is he thinking about 'her' right now? It's so frustrating! Sighing, Zane approached to the door of his room, which was the other room inside this dorm. He turned the doorknob and realized that the room is locked. He (silently) laughed at himself, that how could he forget that his room is being renovated? Geez, he needs to appoint his doctor to get a medicine to improve his memory.
…
"Done," Zane murmured as he made a barrier between him and his other 'roommate' with three cushions, he took from the couch. "This will be enough, I hope I don't move too much tonight, and let my roommate sleep sound." He wished before diving inside the world of sleep. At first he wanted to sleep on the ground, but the next second he remembered how uncomfortable it was for him when he slept on the ground last time… at 'her's house. So he thought of sleeping next to his roommate.
… (And then David got up… ya'll know what happened next)
Previously after when David screamed her lungs out…
Zane was sure confused at the same time, shocked to the level of sky hopes. What is a girl doing beside him?! And who is she calling a thief? Him? A thief? His mind laughed in that claim of hers.
Thinking nothing else, his sharp mind started scrutinizing the whole situation. David was still on the floor. Her face is telling him she's completely shocked, so is him. Suddenly both of them heard sounds of a crowd's presence outside the dorm. Both of them looked at the doors way. After some time, Brad knocked on the door.
Zane's eyes followed David running towards the door. At that same moment, millions of thoughts crossed his mind. If that girl opens the door then it will harm her in many ways, first, she could get into a very sticky situation, and Zane's reputation would go down if all the people out there saw a girl panting and opening the door of a boy's dorm at this hour. Baseless rumors can spread in no time. This mutually harms both of them. Oh god... he needs to find a solution quickly! Zane was lost in thoughts before his eyes widened. An idea clicked his mind. And in the meantime, David turned the doorknob, already has opened the door half. Everything was trickling. Seems like the time has stopped. Zane then gathered all of his energy and ran towards David, who was still opening the door. In a flash, he grabbed her waist and could prevent her screaming right on Brad's face.
