Aya honestly wasn't even sure what she was doing here. She'd had no intention of staying here, but somehow that Cosmo guy had talked her into at least testing this place out. At least it was warm in here, she could see the snow glistening outside the window.
She was sitting in the corner of one of the Residence's sitting rooms, hidden slightly by a bookshelf to the right of her. The main room had been way too crowded for her, too many strangers talking away and cuddling by the fire. She was much more comfortable here, in the shadows of the room, alone and unpressured.
Aya had grabbed a book off of one of the selves when she first walked in, now taking the time to examine it since she had finally found a comfortable spot. The book seemed to cover some complex topics and used a lot of big words that Aya didn't know, plus, there were no pictures. Aya's interest immediately dropped. "I'm not smart enough to read this..." she grumbled to herself as she stood up to place the book back in it's original spot on the bookshelf.
It was at this time that another person walked into the room. They didn't seem to notice Aya since they continued inside and sat down on one of the chairs, but the girl had already been thrown off by their sudden entrance. Forgetting about the book that she held over her head, only halfway back onto the bookshelf, Aya began to back away from the chair the stranger at in. This is turn caused the unsteady book to fall out of it's place and hit Aya in the head, earning a loud "OUCH!" from the girl.
No doubt having now gained the boys attention, Aya dug her fingers into her thighs as she felt her face begin to turn a deep red color. She wanted to runaway and find a new room to hole herself up in, but she knew that wouldn't do. If she was going to be seeing these people around a lot now, she would have to talk to them at some point. Still refusing to make eye contact with the other person, Aya managed to grumble a low, "W-what are you doing here?". Well, it wasn't the friendliest first thing to say to a person. But, hey, it was something at least.
