"School is just....school," he'd shrug, "classes are just that, none really stand out to me, guess cause I'm still settling back in." He'd tap a finger on the table, "I do like the literature class I guess, all the writing and and all that."

He'd clear his throat a little. "Guess books is something we got in common," he'd admit, his cheeks reddening a little, "got a buncha books stacked in my room, I'm reading Macbeth right now."

The vampire leaned back a bit. "That was the first thing I did when I got back, hoard a shit ton of books," he'd snort, "they'll keep me busy a while I guess."

He'd shake his head. "Nah, no friends really," he'd shrug.

"A fellow bookie!?" squealed Amber in excitement, sitting up on her seat a little just little bit before she calms herself and seats herself back "Heh... well... maybe we could read together sometime and talk about some of our favorites books. Or maybe even check out this hoard of books you speak of and compare it to mine."

Ughhh part of her thought she sounded so dumb and nerdy there but it was always exciting for her to meet someone with a passion for literature. But what Nathan said next was of more concern to her.

"No friends?" spoke up Amber, stuck with pang of sorrow for the poor guy. The moment she learned of his lack of friends she knew what she had to do "Well... why don't we be friends? Would you be okay with that?"

He was smiling, well not quite smiling, but he did look less grumpy than before, which was an accomplishment. "Uh...sure....yeah....to all of those," he'd clear his throat, "haven't had any visitors to my dorm yet, but you can come by if you'd like." Yeah, this was all unexpected, but it seemed like a good kind of unexpected.

Friends? He'd blink in surprise and tilt his head. "Yeah, we can be friends.....uh....should we exchange numbers?" he'd ask, slowly pulling out his cell phone. "I can text you....or y'know...you can text me.....or text each other?" he said it all in his usual grumpy self, but there was a slight excitement in his voice.

The waitress would appear to take their order, Nathan would order a blood based dish and a soda. He calmsd a bit, and his face returned to it's full grumpiness. "So.......yeah, no roommate, so just come by whenever you want."

"Great! Sound good." agreed Amber as she gives the grump a big old grin. She pulls out her phone and holds it out to Nathan. "And yeah, lets exchange phone"

After giving each other their numbers, the waitress returned. Amber made her order: seared human flank with a side of steak fries and strawberry blood soda.

"So no roommates? Well I will come by and visit so you don't feel lonesome." Wait... bleh okey that came out weird didn't it! "Y-you know... to hang out and stuff. Actually I could invite you over to my home sometime if you like."

He'd blink in surprise at the way she'd worded that, but decided not to comment on how it could have been interpreted. "Uh yeah sure," he'd say, continuing, "just come by wherever." He'd tell her his dorm number to make it easier to find him whenever she wanted.

"To your place?" he was ninety nine percent sure her mother would know of him and his family. "Uh....sure....maybe..y'know....dinner at your place?...But y'know....blood for me," the thought made him a little nervous, but he was no coward.

The vampire would brush some hair from his eyes. "Next time we hang out though, I'm paying," he'd say with a grumpy grunt, "not letting you pay for everything."

"Hee hee, of course! I am sure my mom will be able cook something up just for you when you come over. And if your that insistent than sure, you can go ahead pay for the next time we have lunch or dinner together. I promise I won't go overboard with the food and make you go broke." joked Amber, not that she actually planned to do such a thing.

Their food and drinks were soon placed on their table by their waitress. Amber quick to thank them and after they left wasted no time in cutting up their meat in bite size bites to consume.

"Hrmm... so tender... they always have the best food here. Enjoying your meal as well? I hope if more than makes for the lunch those bullies ruined."

The corners of his lips moved upward in almost a smile at her joking about making him go broke. "Better not " he'd snort, "at least until I get a job, then I can buy you a little extra stuff." His cheeks would very briefly flush when he said that, he wasn't sure why and it only lasted a second.

Their food came, his nose would twitch as the delicious scents hit it, his stomach would immediately growl. He quickly dug into the food, which came with a blood based jello desert.

"Its a lot better than the blood pack," he'd say with a grunt, "the place I got the pack from didn't warm the blood right." He'd make a face, "even had some cold congealed clot bits in it."

He'd eat one of the blood jello, it was so good he'd instantly down another, he'd glance at the last one and slowly he'd slide it over to her. "Here uh, try one, its really good," he'd say, his voice sounding a little less grumpy.

"Mhmmm?" mummered Amber as she inspects the offered jello.

Part of her was bashful because sharing food felt more like something she would do with a family member or a significant other, not someone she just met. Buuuttt... to refuse would put her in an equally awkward spot as she didn't want to potentially make Nathan feel bad for trying to share. Plus she was the one techically paying for the entire meal so...

"Oh okey! I'll just have one bite~" Amber then digs out a piece with a spoon and inserts it in her mouth. Her face brightens up as the sweet taste reachs her tastebuds.

"Oh woah! Your right! This is good!"

Her face brightening and enjoying the treat made him briefly smile before returning to his usual grumpy look. "Yeah, its pretty good," he'd take another bite of his food, enjoying the blood based foods, "definitely better than a badly warmed blood pack."

The vampire would finish his food relatively quickly, downing his blood based drink. "The drink was good too," he'd say with his usual grumpy grunt.

Nathan would then look to Amber. "So...uh....thank you," he'd say, that small sweet smile briefly appearing again, something Amber had managed to draw out a few times. "It was all good."

"Your welcome! Glad that you could enjoy your meal." replied Amber just as the waitress returned with the check. Amber slide it over and paid for the amount as well making sure to give the waitress a generous tip.

"Alright well we should have enough time to back to school if we get going now. Ready to leave Nathan?" asked Amber whom was shuffling out from her seat and stretches out her spidery legs while waiting for Nathan.
