Akiya smiled at Daichi and return. "I'm guessing you got good news?" He chuckled. "I'm going to go get some food, and maybe some coffee, do you think it's available during lunch? I don't feel like going through withdrawal symptoms today," Akiya said half jokingly. He should probably get help with his coffee addiction, but... Coffee... He loved coffee.

A grin lit up Jae's features when Daichi responded. Score.
//Screw the library. Get your cute behind to the caf. We can talk while we eat.//
Besides, he was looking forwards to the time they would be spending together for the project. Why not get a head start?

"More like my ass saved." Daichi responded with a smile and a shake of his head. He saw the blonde then heading off in another direction and that was rare. But at the end of the day Daichi was honestly glad that Aki came out of the Deen's office unscathed, and he found himself staring at the blonde's retreating back with a soft smile. He turned his attention to Akiya again whilst his cell buzzed in his hand. "I think coffee is available all the time, Akiya." Daichi fell into pace with his other friend, thinking that he might as well walk Akiya over to the cafeteria since the library was on the way. Then he looked at the text message on his screen. Cute...behind?"What on earth?!" He exclaimed out loud then blushed immediately, snapping his cellphone shut before Akiya could notice. (Y//////Y) Stupid Jae saying stupid senseless things.

Akiya looked over at Daichi when he shouted. "Something wrong?" He asked noticing the blush on his friend's face, well, he didn't have to ask, someone had probably said something to Daichi that either a) Made him embarrassed, or b) complimented him, or c) both a and b. Akiya guessed it was c.
He smiled at his friend, and wondered if he was going to get together with either the guy he had been standing next to, or the other tall guy he had been sitting next to. Yep, Akiya was currently thinking of ways to match his friend up.
Watch out Daichi. Akiya wants to play matchmaker.

Good thing Daichi can't read minds. He might just freak out then and there.
"Eeeek! Er, no! Nothing's wrong! Everything's great!"
....yeah right. Just great. The young man gave himself another mental kick, then mentally groaned upon realising he's been mentally kicking himself a little too often these days. Looks like some things in his current lifestyle really had to go, in order to maintain his own mental health.
"So who's your partner for the project?"
Daichi asked conversationally as they headed towards the cafeteria. Maybe he'll head to the library first to pick up some books before returning to the cafe to meet Jae. Or maybe he should meet Jae first. Or should he have dinner with Akiya instead? Should he ask Jae to join them?
Decisions, decisions...
Oh screw that. He'll just do as he pleases when the time comes.

Akiya smiled at his friend and then looked forward because he was finding himself to be looking at Daichi too much and that wasn't good, since he could probably end up running into someone. Akiya gave a "I don't believe you" hum to Daichi's response, chuckling at how cute he sounded."
"Kai-kun is my partner, we met the other day when it was raining and I had lost my keys," yep. Akiya could also be a ditz sometimes. OK. Most of the time. "Since he feels the odd one out in his band, he asked me, well I asked him since you weren't around, if he wanted to be partners. He was just going to ask me the same thing. I also figured that you would partner up with the guy who sat next to you," he gave Daichi a knowing smile.
"Do you want to eat lunch with me? Or do you have a place to be?" Akiya said moving on from the topic, since it would probably make his friend uncomfortable.

"What guy next to me?"
Daichi asked quizzically and then remembered a warm body pressing right up to him and all that.
FACEPALM.
"UHHHHHH! It's NOT like that, please! Oh no...."
GROAN.
Daichi heaved another sigh of defeat. Then he realised again how often he was doing that recently. Damned. At the rate he was going with all this, the youth would be getting wrinkles like he was in his 40s or something.
"Kai-kun...I think I've seen him around in the dorms. Shoulder-length black hair right? Tall...skinny, loves wearing shorts I think. I think."
Daichi pursed his lips for a bit. He'll never EVER be caught dead wearing shorts. That's just so....omg. Weird. At least he didn't think he looked good in them. Or in leather, so to speak. Or anything else too, come to think of it.
"Lunch? At 6pm?"
Daichi asked incredulously after checking his cellphone and realising that he hasn't replied Jae yet.
"I really need to head to the library to pick up some stuff before it closes, but...I don't know. Haven't decided yet."
He answered truthfully as the cafeteria slowly came into view at the end of the hallways.
"Where's Kai-kun then? Shouldn't he be with you?"

Akiya smiled and looked at his watch. "I sort of skipped lunch today," he chuckled. Akiya nodded at the description Daichi made of Kai's looks and smiled at him, "Well, I don't know about the shorts part though, I've only seen him in regular jeans and pants," he shrugged.
"As to where he is, I think he's going to have dinner with his band-mates, we agreed on meeting later in the dorm to do the assignment," Akiya chuckled. The drummer was a ball of energy.

"I hope you didn't skip lunch cos you were too full from coffee...."
Daichi began with a grin and a lift of his eyebrows, rearranging the sling of his duffel bag. He looked at his cell again and finally made his decision.
"Okay. I think I need to head off to the library first. I'll bug you later at the dorms?"
He smiled broadly. Akiya had gradually been more and more forthcoming and nice, and most importantly, more vocal. Without coffee. He liked that the other was feeling more comfortable in his presence.
"Enjoy your lunner! See you!"
...Lunch + dinner.
Daichi chuckled as he waved and stepped off for the library.

Jae made it into the caf and glanced at the clock. It usually closed at seven, offering those students on limited incomes a place to come and eat supper before close. Jae wasn't on an entirely limited income but the place had nice food and it was a short walk from the dorms.
He grabbed a tray and got in line, waiting for his cell to buzz. It didn't. Frowning, he loaded his steamed rice, vegetables and fish onto his tray and wandered over to the booth he and Daichi had been sitting in when they'd first met.
Picking at a few veggies, he glanced back down at his phone. Still no response. A frown touched his lips and he let his eyes wander to the doorway, hoping to see the shorter student but alas, it was vacant. A strange let-down feeling settled in the pit of his stomach and his frowned deepened. Why he was feeling so suddenly down about someone he'd just met was something he didn't really want to think about. Instead he began to nibble here and there at his food, not nearly as hungry as he had been.

Akiya came into the cafeteria and immediately started filling his plate with whatever he could fit on it. OK, maybe not whatever he wanted fit in the plate, he was sort of selective about his favorite food. However, he had to make the most of it since he was running low on money again. His father still refused to help him, and his mother was trying her best to send him money she could get her hands on.
It wasn't until he was walking to look for a seat that he noticed the guy who had been sitting next to Daichi in class today. Akiya took a deep breath and mustered his courage to go and talk to someone for the first time.
"Hey," he said tentatively.

Now the young man had the opportunity to reply Jae's text...in private. In case his face went as red as a beet again.
While at the library picking up a couple non-fiction selections, Daichi whipped up his phone and started punching the buttons quickly.
//Be over in five minutes!//
Blush.
Even though his text was completely innocent, he still blushed.

Jae glanced up at the soft greeting, mustering a smile for the boy he recognized from class.
"Hello." He replied, chopsticks suspended mid-air. "You're from Kre's class, right?" He couldn't for the life of him think of a name for the guy and felt mildly guilty for the fact. He was obviously someone who knew Daichi as they too had been scribbling notes during class.
His phone buzzed on the tabletop and he glanced at the display. Immediately his grin widened but he quickly tramped down the feeling of jubilation.
//If you're busy, don't worry about it.// He sent back quickly. Daichi seemed like a studious kid and if he was genuinely trying to get some work done he didn't want to interrupt him.
Text sent, he glanced back up at Akiya with a smile.

Akiya tried not to feel uncomfortable, but starting a conversation sure was difficult. He took another deep breath and waited until the other was done sending the message. "I... just wanted to tell you that Daichi said he was going to the library,"
Takes another calming breath.
"I figured you two are partners for the project," he gave a shy smile.
Meeting new people was hard.

Unlike the others his age, Daichi didn't have the habit of responding to text messages immediately. He preferred to reply at his own time and discretion, and preferrably when he was alone. So upon receiving Jae's next message the young man smiled and slipped it back into the pockets of his denims, hands already full with new reading material, some for school and others for his own private time.
"These please, thank you."
A swipe of his student ID and he was back out on the corridors, armed to the teeth with thick books. Thick boring books that would have Aki fall asleep upon looking at the mere thickness of them.
Then he replied Jae's text.
//On my way!//
Whoops! He nearly dropped a book there.
