His brows lifted in surprise the instant he met familiar Cheshire eyes. Soon enough, Ryoma Echizen walked over to him.
"Hey." Suna stood up, receiving his hand in greeting.
"What brings you to Palo Alto?"
"Semester abroad." Came Suna's simple answer.
"Hn." Ryoma nodded, eyes drifting towards the group he left. Suna's followed and found a couple of women any respectable man wouldn't be seen with. "We're heading for the beach, maybe you'd like to come along."
"No thanks."
"Alright. Good luck on your studies."
"You too." Suna returned. When he sat back on his table at the cafe and took his pencil, he found himself glaring at his notes. Then, he sighed, looking away. Unwittingly, he became someone who he never wanted to be. And he was right. He was a fool for letting a woman, who rejected him months ago, dictate how he felt. It was stupid. And he felt stupid. But no matter how much he loathed feeling this way, he couldn't get himself to stop loving the equally foolish, blinded brunette back in Japan.
