The key turned in the lock and Hubert pushed the door open. Quietly, the tiny red-head surveyed the room before him. It was clean, a good size and was equipped with two beds, two desks and chairs, two closets, two chest of drawers and a small bedside table and lamp by each bed. Even though it looked like a nice room, Hubert couldn't help but feel apprehensive about the whole thing. Honestly, he would have preferred to be with his brothers even if Hamish never made his bed and always stole socks while Harris always left his dirty shirts on the floor and never emptied the garbage. Actually, maybe it would be nice to be away from his brothers and not be living with them for a change. But what if his new roommate had even worse cleaning habits than his brothers? At least with his brothers, Hubert knew what to expect and could plan accordingly. With this new and unknown roommate, well, who knew what could happen?
Unfortunately, there was nothing Hubertt could do. The best thing to do would be to get unpacked and avoiding having a panic attack while he waited for his new roommate to show up. After quickly surveying the room, Hubert headed for the left side of the room and put his suitcase on the bed. Then, he carefully set his messenger bag on the left desk. Hopefully his roommate wouldn't mind taking the right side of the room.

When Hubert saw who his roommate was, he felt a familiar brief sense of relief and anxiousness. At least he knew his roommate a little bit, maybe having a new roommate would be fun. He would just have to keep an open mind.
Hubert smiled when Pinocchio introduced himself and nodded in order to confirm that they had indeed sat together during class. The shy red-head gave Pinocchio a small wave and said quietly, "I'm Hamish Wilson." He said, not yet able to look his new roommate in the eye. He wasn't quite used to interacting with other kids beyond his brothers. Even at the orphanage and in their former school, Hubert had kept mostly to himself and only interacting with other during class time.

Pinocchio tilted his head to the side as he looked at the red haired boy,"Hammish?",the wooden boy asked before beginning to giggle a bit,"I'm sorry. I've never heard that name before.",he said as jumped onto his bed and sat criss-crossed-applesauce with his hands in his lap.Pinocchio scratched his head as he looked at Hamish confused,"Why don't you talk much?",he asked.Pinocchio had assumed that all boys,well,real boys,talked all the time and were always rough and competitive and he was surprised to see that his new roommate was none of the above.

When Hubert heard Pinnocchio repeat his brother's name back to him, the shy red-head's eyes went wide and he slapped his hands over his mouth. He had just introduced himself as Hamish! Of all the silly things to do! "A-a-actually, I'm Hubert. My brother is Hamish. I-I, uh, got mixed up. I...uh...I..don't like talking..." He mumbled nervously, twisting the edge of his shirt in his hands. Well this was just a lovely first meeting. His roommate probably thought he was an idiot now and would probably tease him for being so silly. It was going to be Brookside all over again.

Pinocchio was confused,he felt upset as he watched the boy fumble over his words,seems like getting use to the real boy thing will be harder than he thought."Oh.",Pinocchio said worried,"It's alright Hubert.You don't have to worry.".Pinocchio saw that Hubert started to twist his shirt and mumble a lot,"You can talk to me!",Pinocchio exclaimed happily,"You're gonna be friends anyway so we could talk to each other about anything! Father said that it's always good to talk,that is if you have something nice to say of course.",the wooden boy said with a smile.

Despite his fears and nervousness, Hubert couldn't help giving Pinocchio a shy smile. The wooden boy didn't seem to mind his shy nature and he had even said that they would be friends. Hubert couldn't help wondering about that idea, he hadn't ever had any friends besides his brothers. Of course there had been Jayjay but that had been different. Jayjay had been a teenager after all, Hubert couldn't remember the last time he had made a friend close to his own age. He wasn't even sure if he had done that before.
"I-I I guess so. I'm not very g-good at talking to people. Besides my brothers, anyways." Hubert said. He was no longer twisting his t-shirt into knots but he was still clutching the edge of his t-shirt. It was going to be awhile before the shy triplet felt at ease.

Pinocchio smiled,"Well that's alright.",he said trying to cheer up the shy boy."I have an idea!",Pinocchio said excitedly as he rushed to his suitcase to take out his wooden toy cricket that was dressed in a fancy suit and top hat."This is Jimmy.",Pinocchio said as he handed the toy to Hubert,"I talk to him all the time when I feel nervous and lonely.And soon enough it helped me when talking to other people!"."Maybe Jimmy can help you to!",Pinocchio suggested excitedly.

Hubert nodded and looked down at the ground as Pinocchio tried to reassure him. So far the wooden boy had been rather nice and friendly, but even so Hubert still felt extremely nervous. Inwardly, the shy triplet sighed and wished he was more confident like Harris or more energetic like Hamish. His brothers never had any trouble when they talked to people.
The tiny red-head looked up suddenly with an uncertain look on his face when his roommate suddenly rushed off to his suitcase. Hubert watched as Pinocchio returned, holding a tiny and dapper-looking wooden cricket. Carefully, Hubert took the wooden toy in his hands and stared at the unexpected gift as he listened to Pinocchio explain what 'Jimmy' was for. Slowly, Hubert smiled a very tiny smile. "Um, H-hello, Jimmy." Hubert said uncertainly but a little bit happier than he had been.

Pinocchio got up and put his ear toward the cricket,"Uh huh.Uh huh.",Pinocchio said as he nodded before he picked his head up and looked at Hubert."Jimmy says 'Hello'!",Pinocchio said with a cheerful grin."Ya know he doesn't make any sound.",Pinocchio said with a chuckle,"You gotta use your imagination and think of how you want him to respond!",he said as he tapped on the boy's forehead.

Hubert giggled quietly as Pinocchio pretended to make Jimmy respond to his greeting. He nodded when Pinocchio explained that it was all really just pretend. "Of course I know that!" He said, his voice almost reaching a normal speaking volume. With a determined air, Hubert took Jimmy in his hand and held the wooden cricket up to his ear. "He says that he very happy to meet me." Hubert said. Then he held up the cricket to his ear again. "He also says that we should help each other get moved in."
