Milo was not happy to be heading over to Elijah's dorm at the moment. In fact, he was pretty sure that it was a lost cause even. But a certain junior artist had bugged the hell out of him just to get him to agree to go and talk to Elijah and try and make things better. Though last he knew Elijah was still pretty pissed off at him and he was kind of returning the feeling on that one. He wasn't thrilled to come face to face to the guy after their last talk. It wasn't his fault that Elijah had chosen to be a complete ass to him. Not his fault in the slightest. It was all on the other guy. He was completely innocent - well in his own eyes anyway - but that was the only set that mattered. He didn't care how other people saw the situations, he was going to see them his own way and that was the end of it. He was stubborn in that way. He could sit there for days and allow someone to debate with him and make all the points that they wanted, but he refused to budge on his side of things, no matter how off base they were.
He was actually kind of sure that Elijah was probably more mad at him then he'd been the last time that they'd talked. Because of course everyone knew what had happened between him and Taylor, everyone. Just as everyone knew that they were back together again and that everything was fine - or rather better than fine - between the two of them. It was all he ever heard people talking about these days. Of course people added their own flares to it. Like for instance, that during the three days that he'd been gone he'd slept with a countless number of girls. He couldn't blame them for that one though, that was something that the old Milo would have done. But no one knew the real story. That he hadn't been off having fun and screwing random girls. But that instead he'd locked himself in a hotel room for two days drinking until he passed out each day and practically drowning in misery and self-loathing. Of course no one wanted to put that spin on it. No one wanted to believe that he was a good guy, he never was in these situations.
Still, one thing had held true with almost everyone. Everyone pretty much was upset with him now and most everyone thought that Taylor was a complete idiot for taking him back. He was pretty sure that Elijah was included in that group of people as well. Not that he could talk when he'd dumped Roxanne without even so much as a reason. Hypocrite. He sighed and shook his head as he reached the other guy's dorm and debated on even knocking. He wouldn't be surprised if Elijah would choose not to answer it if he did decide to knock. Well at least then he wouldn't have to waste any time with trying to apologize. Maybe it'd be a good thing that Elijah hated him. He could live with being hated by just one more person, he decided as he stood in the hallway. After all, one more wasn't too bad, especially not if it saved him from having to apologize or whatever... again. At this point he was seriously considering just walking away, but he cringed at the thought of a lecture from Addie for not doing this. He'd rather deal with a hypocritical Elijah than a pissed off Addie so he knocked on the door.
