Everything that had happened between her and Logan at the party was innocent, that was what Balo was telling everyone any time she was questioned about things. Apparently, a few people had noticed him leaving her room the next morning and she could already guess what they were assuming. Perhaps the smart thing to do would have been avoiding him for a bit, try to get seen together just a little bit less until the whispering died down a bit, but she didn’t want to do that. She loved spending time with him and she enjoyed his company.

So she did the exact opposite, she treated everything as she would normally and hoped the rumors would die down on their own. Maybe it wasn’t the approach her sister would advise her to take but it certainly felt like the right one.

“Hey, Logan! How are you doing today?” She sits down next to him in the cafeteria with nothing more than a pear, the fruit quickly ‘accidentally’ finding itself placed onto his tray as she settles herself into the seat next to him. “Would you mind if I pick your brain a bit later for the communications homework?  I don’t think I’m understanding it correctly.” She was going to wait for him to answer before she went into a full-blown chatter session, it felt like the right thing to do.

Plus, there was already guilt creeping up at the realization she had immediately started the conversation by asking him a question about class. Probably wasn’t the best thing to start with, in hindsight.

Collen knocks on Logan’s door in the morning, hoping he wouldn’t be walking up his friend’s roommate in the process of getting the boy for the gym. Logan had expressed interest in learning to box, and Collen was more than happy to teach him. It was something he loved, the chance to share someone he cared about so much made him excited.

He got up earlier and made sure he had well packed his gym bag, ensuring there was extra stuff for Logan just in case his friend had forgotten something he’d need. It was always better to over prepared than to find out down the line they needed something neither of them had - after all. He knocks again, “Logan, today’s the day! Come on!” There’s a hint of excitement in his voice with the words, and he wasn’t even going to deny it if it was questioned.

He was excited to teach Logan, and he had a very good feeling about this.
