Chapter 35 - When In Jail

The university campus was quite impressive. I admit, it would be so cool to be able to study there.
I was giddily jumping and down on the balls of my feet when we entered campus and began to stroll around. There was supposed to be a tour guide but he/she is nowhere to be seen, at the moment.

"Um, so where the heck do we go?" Aria frowned, confused.

"Err. . ." Jack scratched the back of his neck, with the same amount of confusion.

"We cou-" I began to say, then got cut off by a male voice.

"Hey! Sorry, I'm late. Trouble in the Science lab," A guy, around the age of nineteen or twenty, jogged up to us. He had blond hair, a charming smile and green eyes. "By the way, I'm Tate. Tate Walker." He smiled, offering me his hand.

"Uh, hi, Tate," I shook it reluctantly. "I'm Rose, and this is Aria and-"

"Jack Veslovskiy is the name and I advise you against flirting with Rose, her boyfriend might kill you. Feel free to flirt with this crap bag, though. " My comrade interrupted me, his expression blank as he gestured to Aria, who rolled her eyes and stepped on his foot.

Jack's face contorted to pain for a minute, before he kept his expression straight once more and Aria smiled contently.

"Um, okay then. Ready for the tour?" Tate directed this question at me.

"Yeah. Tour. Ready . . ." I breathed out.

Tour. Ashton. 5 Seconds of Summer. Luke. Longing. Sad, I am.

I lowered my eyes to the pavement and kicked a rock as we walked. Tate glanced at me, a small frown on his features. "Are you alright? Don't you like the campus?"

I looked up at him. "Huh? Uh, yeah. I like it but . . . It's complicated." I said uneasily.

Jack and Aria were trailing behind us, oblivious to our conversation.

"You seem upset," He stated.

Thanks for pointing that out, Captain Obvious . . .

"I am upset." I agreed, bluntly.

"Are you going to study here?"

"Probably not," I told him truthfully.

He furrowed his eyebrows. "Oh. Why not?"

"I'd rather be with my boyfriend in Sydney, and besides, I'm not sure if they'll accept me."

Hehe. Boyfriend. That's different. In a good way.

"Your boyfriend . . . What's his name?" Tate asked "Just trying to be friendly." He hurriedly added at the end.

"Luke. I think we're dating. Not so sure. He didn't really tell me exactly." I rubbed my arm.

Tate nodded, then pointed towards a white building. "That's the Science lab. It's cut into three divisions: Biology, Chemistry and Physics. Well, for now, only Biology and Physics; the Chemistry lab will be off-limits for a week or two. Big explosion, very dangerous." He explained.

I nodded in acknowledgement.

"Those," He pointed towards two tall, wide beige buildings. "Are the dormitories. Girls in the left building, guys in the right building. Across the road from that, is the apartment building for the teachers, staff and security. Where do you come from?"
