Hearing his name, Blaine came to a stop and glanced over his shoulder as Valerie approached. A brow shot up in question but upon receiving a compliment? Warmth spread across his cheeks and an ear to ear smile made his eyes crinkle at their corners. “Thank you. That means a lot.” Long fingers curled around the leather strap of his satchel resting on his shoulder as he jumped at the chance to take her up on her offer. “Seriously? Yeah! We should do that. Whenever you want. Pick the time and I’m there.”
The Lima Bean was filling up with students grabbing some coffee before they went home or hanging out with their friends to gossip about the day. Blaine entered alone, however. Leather satchel slung over his shoulder and his phone gripped in one hand. Hazel gaze drifted from table to table trying to pick out the girl who he barely knew until they were assigned to work on a project in Photography together. Valerie. That was her name. She seemed nice enough and even if they were strangers? Being assigned a partnership with some of the kids in that class would have made him want to pull his hair out by the end of one day. McKinley did seem to have it’s fair share of … be nice.
Instead of spending their after school hours in school, Blaine suggested they meet here to organize things and get to know one another. He’d grabbed his homework and hurried to the cafe as soon as the last bell rang. By the looks of it? He’d beat her here. Grabbing one of the last empty places to sit, he staked their claim on it by sitting down and setting his bag on the tabletop. There. They had their spot. The former Warbler busied himself by firing off a couple texts to his boyfriend while he waited for his new partner to show up.
