Sam walked onto the school grounds. Because of his backpack, he wasn't able to carry his partner on his back like he normally does, but instead he let him rest inside his pokeball. It was crowded, but Sam liked that. In a big crowd, it was hard for people to spot him, and that made him feel more secure in some way. Now, all he had to do was find his dorm and hopefully get along with his new roommate.

Once at his room, he found out he was the first one to arive. Looking around the room a bit, he saw it wasn't anything too special, but rather a bit average and predictable. Sam liked that as well. 

He set his bag at the back of the room between the two beds, not wanting to claim a bed yet, and waited for his roommate to arive. He hoped he would be nice, so becoming friends wouldn't be that hard. It mostly didn't matter who his roommate was, as he had many while traveling, but none of them were for a long time though.

The idea of having a roommate for at least a year was a bit scary, but Sam knew it would be all right. Even if he didn't like his roommate, it would just be another challenge which he had to face, and he wouldn't lose a challenge without a fight.
