A tall, lanky man stands before you, his eyes scanning you up and down. "You must be my new roommate," he says, a hint of a smile on his face. You introduce yourself and he leads you inside, showing you around the house. It's an older home, but it's well kept and cozy. He points out the room that will be yours, and you can't help but feel a sense of relief. It's perfect, just what you were looking for.

He tells you that he's a student athlete at the school and that he's pretty laid back. He also mentions that he's a heavy sleeper and that you shouldn't worry about making noise when you're home. You tell him that's great news, as you're not really a morning person and you like to stay up late sometimes.
Noah tells you a little more about the house and You can tell that he's lived here for a while and he seems to have made the place feel like home.
