“…Lost?” Adam cocked his head at the person who’d wandered in, looking out of place.

Jace smiled apologetically as he nodded and looked around nervously, “Yeah, sorry, I... d’you know where the library is? I...” wasn’t paying attention died on his lips as he blushed lightly, not wanting to incriminate himself for his own stupidity.

ollie-hawthorne:

She called it getting used to a new neighbourhood. That was why she’d had to spend the afternoon wandering around aimlessly but the truth was, she’d hated the quiet of the house. She wasn’t due to start taking care of Liam until she’d moved and settled in but once she’d unpacked, she’d felt restless. Anxious. Aux Amis had been a cosy coffee shop she’d often visited when she lived nearby and she found herself wandering there without thought.

As usual, the small coffee shop was a hive of activity. The perfect distraction from her thoughts. She ordered her usual - a cortado with cinnamon syrup - and snagged the last open table by the window. She’d all but sunk into the armchair when someone hovering nearby caught her attention. ‘I suppose you can sit if you need to.’ she remarked. ‘I’m not meeting anyone and I don’t have much use for a second seat.’

Jace needed All The Caffeine (tm) if he was going to be able to get through the slog of readings and papers and projects he had for his classes. In truth, he was excited for it and bounced on his toes as he waited for his black eye coffee (extra super large black coffee with two shots of espresso... he would be climbing the walls in just the right amount). Despite all the work he needed to get done, Jace was all about taking mini-breaks to make sure he could keep going for longer. A short stroll around the building or one level of a video game were his usual go to but sometimes just sitting and chilling out were the key.

He smiled at the gorgeous woman who’d invited him to sit and, after a quick glance around and realizing there were no other spots, Jace let himself sit as he slid his bag off his shoulder and gave a little nod of appreciation, “Hey, thanks, it’s good to get off my feet for a bit.. I’m Jace...” he said his name with a smile and without any expectation of conversation though he definitely wouldn’t mind seeing what he could draw out of the girl.

This was probably a bad idea, Nate mused as he closed the app and set his phone down on the kitchen counter. No one was ever allowed onto Delmore property without the guard getting some level of notice to look into them. Any exceptions were people coming and going very quickly and under a watchful eye, namely some kid delivering food. He sent a name to the guard at the gate, the name from the app, but Nate knew it could be a lie- anyone could be showing up. In a huff, before they could question what he was doing tonight, he shut the laptop and shoved both into his office drawer out of sight in case the person was a thief.

The exchange had been brief, Nate mentioning he’d been alone for a while and how he wouldn’t mind some company for his usual Friday night pancake breakfast. He was a man of routine, liking to end his weeks with his favorite meal. His name on the app had been Nathaniel Keaton, his first and middle name and his icon had been Cosmo licking his face, not much given away there either. By the time he was done showering and changing, laying out the ingredients along the left of the countertop to the stove, there was a knock on the door. “All right, Cosmo, don’t let me die tonight, bud.” The dog let out a quick whine, leaning into Nate’s leg as he opened the heavy front door with its thick distorted glass windows. Anxiety kept his sapphire gaze on the steps, slowly trailing up their body before he met their face. “You made it…”

Jace was never really one for taking chances on things. Growing up, his family, his mother especially, had always been very straight-laced and conservative, hyper-vigilant about the boys doing dangerous things. It always made sense to him to not do stupid things and risk injury but as he’d gotten older, as he’d watched Zayn push past the boundaries that their parents had set for them, he had started to question. Getting his parents to let him go to the university was his Big Deal and he’d been a very studious and cautious student.... in a fit of rebellion against boredom, Jace had downloaded an app, made a profile, and connected with someone.

It wasn’t dangerous he tried to lie to himself but he could too easily see through his own crap. The cute guy in the picture with the dog could have been from anywhere, the actual person could be some psycho... maybe the panCAKEs were a lieeeee.... no. No, no, no... Jace decided he needed to trust. Just in case, he left the details with his roommate and instructions to call him about half an hour after he left. If he needed a quick out, that would be it.

The uber dropped him off at a rather large house and he gave his name to the security guard at the gate, his nerves kicking into high gear at the grandeur of the place and the countless unknowns before him. He held his breath as he waited for someone to answer the door and his eyes widened when it finally opened. The guy was... oh no, he was hot. Really hot... and the dog was even cuter in real life and Jace forgot that he was supposed to actually exhale and breathe back in which he did quickly once the man’s voice hit him and knocked some bit of sense back into his mind. “Oh, god, yeah, sorry, hi, uh...” he laughed nervously and scrunched his face in embarrassment, “Sorry, hi, I’m, uhm, Jace....” he shoved his hand out stiffly, with an apologetic look, “I’m also nervous... you probably noticed, of course you noticed, I’m acting like an idiot, I’m so sorry, I promise I’m not crazy....”
