"Sure whatever you want," Jay replied easily to her request about listening to him play in his dorm, though that wasn't to say he wasn't surprised. He didn't claim to know how the girl world worked though so he just shrugged it off with a lazy smile. When she mentioned skipping Jay laughed lazily knowing she would never even seriously consider skipping school. He had skipped a few times here and there, no more than the regular highschooler, Lacey never came with him though. He had to find other friends for that.

"Well, I guess I'll see you after school sometime," he said as they arrived at Lacey's locker. He walked backwards away from her, giving her a small wave, when he turned around to continue walking to his locker though, he ran straight into someone. "Shit sorry," he said automatically, not even looking at who who he had run into, still processing the fact he had pretty much bowled into someone. Once he got his bearing straight he realized the person he had run into was Cara and a warm friendly smile spread across his face. It was always good to see her, even in a situation like this.

"Care, I totally didn't see you there, my bad," he said, with a lazy grin while he scratched the back of his neck. He felt terrible about running into such a caring sweet person, though he hoped she'd see the funny side in it. He hadn't witnessed it firsthand but he heard she could have a bit of a temper. "You are okay though yeah?" He asked sincerely after a few beats. He wouldn't have described her as fragile, especially since Lacey had, had a fit last time he called a girl fragile, but she wan't exactly tall or solid. Don't get him wrong though, in any case other than this, that a was a positive thing.

Looking down at her books he noticed she was on her way to business, he had to hold back an involuntary grimace. If geography was his least favorite subject, business was his second least favorite. "On your way to business I see..." Jay said nodding towards her books, his tone doing nothing to hide his distaste for business, in fact it probably aided in making his dislike more obvious.
