"Judy, Nan!"

I heard a familiar voice saying from across the student lounge and when I looked, my eyes grew wide.

"Holy shit, she's actually here," Nan breathed, her eyes fixed on Sammy who was walking towards us with a bright smile on her lips.

"Sammy?" I asked once she finally approached.

"It's so good to see you both," Sammy said, sitting in the seat across from me. "I Hope I'm not interrupting."

"Not at all," I told her. "We are just surprised to see you are all. I didn't think you'd actually be here."

She nodded.

"I needed to get away from my pack and my boyfriend. Gavin was kind enough to set me up here. I'm really excited to start this semester with you guys."

"When do you graduate?" Nan asked.

"Two more years," Sammy explained.

"Too bad we didn't know you soon," Nan said with a small frown. "We are graduating this year."

"That's huge," Sammy said with a bright smile. "Let me guess, you're in the Gamma Force major?" She asked me.

I nodded.

"What gave that away?" I chuckled.
