Extra Study Help // Jack & Bailey
Jack approached the address Bailey had sent to him. He was lucky that it wasn't all that far from his apartment building, just a subway ride away. Slung over his shoulders was his backpack in which lay a text book and the few notes he had bothered to take. He felt odd coming to someone's home empty handed, so after departing the subway he had ran to the nearest starbucks and picked up a drink for each of them. Coffee for himself and tea for her.
He had spent quite awhile contemplating what to get her and in the end settled on the tea because in his own experience, while it was possible for people to dislike both tea and coffee, the dislike for tea was usually small enough that the person would still drink it and not mind all that much. He really hoped that was the case. He probably should have texted her to save himself the uncomfortable moment if she didn't like it, but of course Jack didn't think that far ahead.
In retrospect the drinks might have been a bad idea for another reason. Now he was standing at her door with no hands to knock on it. Awkwardly he lifted his elbow and rang the doorbell instead.
