It had taken him longer than it should have to consider that Seojin-a had simply gone to the dining hall early. It had been one of the places he hadn’t looked yet, though he didn’t quite know why. Maybe because he had seemed so uncomfortable at dinner last night? He’d been quiet and eaten his meal as quickly as possible before he’d excused himself. Ahh-Bo had thought that was because he just didn’t enjoy being around other people (which he could understand based on his very limited experience from last night.) Logically, that would mean he’d avoid places where other people were, right?

The halls had emptied as he’d strode through them; everyone else had gone off to eat. The young noble was determined to find his new friend however, even if that meant committing a mortal sin against his own body-missing breakfast. If he thought about it, he couldn’t say why he was willing to do this for the vampire and none of the other boys. He honestly couldn’t say what made him want to be around him so much either, just that it made him happy and it was fun to tease him. He was much quieter than any of Ann-Bo’s other friends, though he’d revealed he had a sense of humor when they’d been alone.

Either way, it was only until he realized that maybe he should check the dining hall that he had finally found him. And by found him, it meant literally crashing into him just inside the entrance. He’d stumbled, his athletic reflexes attempting to snatch whatever had begun to fall. He’d managed to snag a handle of the bag. Unfortunately by then, the bag had already tipped far enough for all of its contents to clatter to the floor.

”Aigo! Mianhiyo,” he’d exclaimed in surprise, and then upon realizing it was the very person he’d been looking for, he flashed his dazzling grin, ”There you are, Seojin-a! I’ve been looking everywhere for you!” He squatted and began shoving the items back into the bag a bit too enthusiastically.
