Waking up early together, still with the damp hair that doesn't get to dry from last night. Adley covered herself in a robe, sitting on ryan's lap while he blowdried her hair on the bed, imagining that this could just be how their life would be.

"Hey" he reached to her ear, "i made a decision, i'm going to Las Vegas with you" Adley looked up to him in surprise, then breaking a smile, letting ryan continue doing his work as he patted her head gently

Beep beep

Bee man clicked on his watch, while still munching on his top ramen, showing off his wrist to Tim and Greg, "check this out" he said calmly, sweat spreading all over his shirt

"12'87" ?!" Tim blurted out mad, dropping his chopsticks, "are you sure that's your mouth? And not some darinage pipe? I'm never competing with you again!" He continued while Bee man wrote his new record on their notebook

"Ryan you alright?" Bee Man ignored Tim who was still mumbling nonsense, looking up to ryan reading on his bed, "why are you suddenly studying english?"

"Knock it off, your grammar sounds ridiculous, just stick with pidgin" Greg joked, Ryan just rolled his eyes while his friends were fighting about nothing

He jumped off his bed and went straight to his computer, working and working, not even noticing the moon on the sky, "anybody's using the bathroom?" Tim yelled while holding up his pants, "i can't hold it anymore", he ran out of their dorm room trying to find a toilet just as Adley walked in, he laughed embarrassingly, facing the wall "next time you're here let me know! I'll lose the underwear" adley just giggled and went inside

She approached her "boyfriend" who has his butt stuck to the chair infront of his computer, she played with his hair as she asked, "What are you up to?"

"Sit" he told her without looking at her direction, "have you heard of Six Degrees of Separation or Topological Relations?" He asked, finally facing her.

She shook her head

He fake coughed as he was about to explain, "Stanley Milgram's Six Degree of Separation states that in this world, no matter who you are, you can be introduced to another person through six acquaintances. Whereas topological relations describe the relationship between elements adjacent in space, even if they don't have actual locations. The combination of these two is called a social network. Got it?" He ranted, Adley just sat there not sure of either getting anything, but she nodded.

"My darling had this amazing idea for a website, he combines Stanley Milgram's Six Degree of Separation and Topological Relations. Six Degree of Separation states that~" and so on and so on, after Adley decided to share his word to her roomates and her roomates to other people at school.

"You put these two together, and what? You have social network." Anthony ended proudly with his skype call with Mark Elliot Zuckerberg that has been going on for 16 minutes and 31 seconds.

"Wow this is just awesome!" Mark replied.

Adley fell asleep on his shoulder, still with his working position as all of his roomates were already asleep, he smiled as he knew that he was done with his work, and his smile widen seeing Adley already asleep on him, he woke her up gently, slowly leaning his head down before Adley turned to point at his roomates, questioning him

"It's okay" he told her quietly, just before she stopped him again, as the beep sounds, goddamn it, he thought

"It's not, darli- i mean, Mr.Higa. Time's up"
