Nic arrived at the cafe and signed in, found his spot and sat down, ordering a drink to calm his nerves.  Looking around, he had to admit everyone looked good and like they were mostly here to have a good time and meet new people and that was the whole point of this.  There was a little guilt; but maybe that was a good thing too.  A shadow fell across the table and he looked to his card before looking up.  “Ben?” Nic asked, standing up and extending his hand to the other.  “I’m Nic Ricci, have a seat.”

Katie had already had a few drinks and she was just really enjoying the little vacation she was having right now with everyone and she knew she was going to be going back home soon so she wanted to enjoy it. She ran a hand through her hair as she walked to the bar and laughed a little as she noticed someone there and smiled, “So are you going to be me a drink handsome?” She laughed raising her eyebrows for a moment.

Tap. Tap. Tap. Macey knocked her knuckle against the open door of Ben's classroom. She was usually pretty blunt and outward with her questions and opinions, but for some reason she had some butterflies floating around in her stomach. She'd been playing her part of the conversation in her head for the entire walk from her office to his classroom. "Hey future bro, got a sec?" Macey questioned as she leaned her shoulder against the door frame, waiting for his response.

There were few people that got this side of her. After the incident, after Daniel...Stef was hardly the person she was before that fated summer. She needed Ben to know the role he played. He pulled her out of the deepest depression.  He knew how to keep her anchored. And sure, they weren’t together anymore but that didn’t mean he didn’t try any less. “We owe each other, then.” She let him take his hand back and offered him a soft smile. “I’m sorry. I don’t want to argue anymore. I don’t want to keep feeling like you’re slipping through my fingers, Ben. How will we save each other if we can’t even be in the same room? I might not be a part of the gang like that anymore but I’m still loyal to all of you. Especially you, Santi and Cat.

HATE IS A STRONG WORD || F2F: LAUBEN

[She had homework that needed doing, but that didn’t stop Lauren from refreshing her dash from time to time in the background to see if she had any messages, that could serve as a fun distraction. However, what she saw instead was the exact opposite of just that. "Don’t blame us when Mr. Darcy just turns out to be another person that will leave you behind.” She’d clearly missed the message when it had first been posted, but there was no missing Becca’s reaction to it now. Before she even knew what she was doing, Lauren was slamming her laptop shut, her parchment and quill falling to the floor as she marched out of her dorm and straight to Ben’s. Not even caring who else was around, she flung the door open so hard that it hit the wall with a loud bang and all but growled at Ben, who thankfully was alone in the room.] I don’t give a shit what’s going on between you two generally, but where the fuck do you get off saying that to her?
