She woke up three hours later for no good reason at all. She looked at her clock. "5:30 in the frikkin afternoon...hopefully I didn't mess up my sleep pattern too much. I'm kinda hungry, maybe I'll go down to the cafeteria and get some food" She thought as she got out of bed, perked herself up a little, and headed to the door. She suddenly felt her pocket to find it empty. "s**t, where's my key?" She said aloud as she looked frantically across the floor. She walked back over to her nightstand and saw it sitting there. "Duh, what's wrong with me?" She thought as she grabbed the key, walked over to the door and opened it, locked the door behind her, and began walking to the cafeteria. When she got there, she was surprised to see a pretty crowded room, with a decent line to the food area. "Well, I guess I go stand in line...dad warned me that one of the biggest downsides to citylife is dealing with traffic...oh well" she thought as she walked over and stood in line. She sat down at one of the few empty tables after buying a banana, a bottle of water, and a bag of doritos. "Well...here I am...eating alone as usual...." she thought as she opened her bag of doritos and began to munch while she let her mind wander.

Damien laid on his bed staring at the cieling. He looked over at the clock and realized he hasn't eaten anything in almost two days. "Man, i'm hungry," he said to himself as he climbed down from his bed. He looked around his empty room before heading to the cafeteria. He waited in the long line before he got his small dinner: a sandwich, a bowl of fruit, and a cup of coffee. HE walked in and looked around and noticed that the vast majority of the tables were full. Then he saw the girl from the park sitting alone nibbling on doritos. Still embarassed from the events that transpired earlier, he was reluctant to talk to her. But he saw that there was pretty much no other option but to sit there. So he heads over to her table. "Excuse me," he said sheepishly. She looked up into his eyes. He returned the look, then blushed slightly and quickly cast his gaze down to his food. "God, she has pretty eyes," he thought. "Umm, would it be ok if I sat here? I swear I won't bother you."

Yukora was eating her Doritos when she suddenly heard a voice. She told herself to ignore it, since the person was probably talking to someone else. "Why would anyone talk to me...?" She thought as she looked in the general direction of where the voice came from, and she suddenly saw a boy standing over her. He was focused on her, so she assumed he really was talking to her. She then saw him blush slightly, look down at his food, and ask if he could sit with her. Immediately, her mind jumped into action. "Wow...he really is talking to me. Who woulda thought" she thought as she moved over a little, making more room then there was before. "Dear God...please stop me from looking like a dork" she prayed as she smiled up at the boy and responded "absolutely, you weren't bothering me, I was kinda lonely anyway." She felt herself blush ever so slightly and looked down into her almost empty Doritos bag. When she looked back up, she noticed he was already sitting. She searched her mind rapidly for something to say that might strike up a conversation, but all she could come up with was "so how long have you been here?"

Yukora listened intently, but noticed herself blushing about halfway through. "Stop it!! You finally have a stranger striking up a normal conversation, don't mess it up!!!" She screamed to herself inside her head. She avoided eye contact, but occasionally looked over at him to try not to scare him off. She continued listening until he went silent after saying his name. "No, you're not babbeling! I mean if you were, I wouldn't be one to talk, I babbel all the time, my mouth doesn't know how to keep itself shut." she said before thinking "Stop it!!!" She re-thought about what he'd said and continued. "Nice to meet you Damien, my name is Yukora" she said as she held out her hand and smiled. When he took it, she noticed his grip was strong and firm, but soft at the same time. She took her hand away and continued. "I got here earlier today, I haven't gotten any dirty looks so far" she said before pausing to try to remember if what she was saying was actually correct. "Actually, I did get some weird 'wow what a freak' looks when I walked around campus with my head in the map...and I shouldn't forget the 4 times I bumped into people...that was embarassing" she said as she blushed more. She stopped and throught about everything he'd said, to make sure she didn't forget anything. "Wow, a 20 hour bus ride?? That's crazy! My dad drove me here, we recently moved to this city, the drive was only about 20 minutes." When she was finally ready to let him continue the conversation, she sighed to herself and sat back a little. She took a sip of her water before unpeeling her banana and taking a bite

Yukora still gazed at Damien for a moment before shutting out his talking in her own thoughts. "Wow, he seems really nice, and he's kinda cute, but he probably has a girlfriend or something, but I'd much rather have a friend then sit here alone" She suddenly heard the sound of another male voice seem to leak into her mind. She snapped herself out of her thoughts and looked at the boy that had suddenly joined their table. She tried to re-adjust her ears to listen to him, but he was talking too fast. Her ears finally caught up to her brain when she heard him pause, then ask if they could be friends. He also said something about making friends and knowing people care about you, but she didn't catch all of it because she began asking herself questions inside her head, still physically looking at him without realizing it. "Well, strange person that suddenly joins my table and interrupts my thoughts, then talks super duper fast, how can I be your friend if I don't even know your name??" When she noticed he was silent again, she pulled back into the conversation and focused on getting his name, making that her new goal. "I'm sorry, I must have spaced out, what's your name again?" she asked, her voice sounding very curious and full of wonderment.
