RIVER

It's been a couple hours.

After personalizing our dorm the way we want it, me and Sabrina finally decide to go look for our friend. Luckily, we don't get lost.

The outside of campus is a lot easier to manage then the inside, especially when there's so many buildings around. Even so, we ended bumping with another familiar faces before we get to Theo.

"I've been looking for you," Vance flashes me a lazy smile when he seems me, hugging me by the waist before nodding at my best friend, "Hey, Sabrina"

She returns the gesture, "Hi."

"River!" one of Vance closest friends as well as one of my favorites of his rushes to us, "I thought you were only arriving tomorrow."

"I didn't want to miss the first day, after all this is when everyone gets to meet each other," I say truthfully.

"Honestly, I feel like I've never talked with so many people in such a short time," Gisele waves her finger around the crowd behind us.

Mason appears behind her, "What's up?"

"Look at those brand new tattoos, i swear you make me want to get more everytime I see you," I shake my head at the guy, biting my lips with envy.

He chuckles, "Give me a call and we will do it."

"You guys realise that it's dangerously bad for your skin, right?" Vance's gaze dances between the two of us.

"I don't know, V, you'd look good with some of that body painted in ink," I wink at him, expecting his reaction of an eye roll.

Vance is a medicine student, therefore he's pretty serious when it comes to health. Nothing too extreme— I couldn't handle being around someone like that for too long— but he's... wary.

Although I'm simply joking, I know exactly why he never let Mason get near him with the ink needle. Every two months he donates blood and for that he can't have any tattoos.

"I prefer leaving that for the two of you," he scrunches his nose and I decide to drop the matter before he gets uncomfortable.

"You're talking as if River's were fully on display, I swear I die with curiosity every time," Gisele presses her lips together.

It's true, mine are pretty well hidden. They're not a lot but it felt exciting to have something in my body that only a few people get to see.

"What about you, Sabrina, have any tattoos?" Mason lifts a brow, welcoming her into the conversation which warms my heart.

Sab shakes her head, "Not really."

"She's more the type of person to do a sketch for someone else than actually get a tattoo," I supply, knowing how well this woman draws.

"Art major?" Gisele questions.

My best friend nods, "Yeah, you?"

"She's in computer science but I am on the same as you," Mason steps in, grinning at her, "It's good to know I will have a familiar face around."
