The Grey in Between

Nick

I had been walking around for a few hours now, in fact, it was almost dark. Realizing I forgot my phone but not wanting to go back to get it and chance another run in with the hot, pink haired, pierced guy, Andrew. I opted for just walking around.

Huge mistake.

I was lost, the campus ten times bigger then my entire suburb and even more labyrinth like, I had no idea how to get to the dorm room, or the dinning hall, as my grumbling stomach reminded me.

I just then heard a shout. I turned around, jogging up to me was Brad or Chad or whatever, the senior who helped me earlier.

"Hey! It's Nick, right?" He asks me, a grin plastered on his face.

I nod, a little unsure.

"What are you doing out during dinning hour?" He asks, looking around as if to see if I was with anyone.

"I, uh, I went for a walk and sorta got, uh, lost," I admit sheepishly. He nods with a knowing grin.

"I did the same thing my first year, let me show you to the dinning hall?" He advises, "you can come sit with me and my friends."

"Uh, sure!" I say, a little too excited.

I walk beside him as he leads me out of the labyrinth of the campus towards the dinning hall, Brad, as I discover his name really is, has a girlfriend back in New York, where he's from. He came here because of the amount of graduates who go into ivy leagues from the school.
