"Viktor! Stop! Just go lay down!" Jon yelled to the dog, who folded his ears back and whimpered. The three year old husky had been pestering Jon while he was trying to work.  Jon stood up from the chair at his desk and looked down at the dog. "I'm sorry." he said for raising his voice. He didn't do it often he was just quite stressed. He'd been working for weeks on a project for work and only hours before he needed to submit the file to his boss, his computer crashed and he'd lost everything.

Looking at the dog once more and smiling apologetically as if the dog would understand his frustrations, he reached out and pet the dog gently on the top of his head. He made sure the dog left the office the same time he did, unable to trust the devious animal in his work space.

He wandered down the hall in search of Harper, the dog had run off to hide in the bathroom, likely curling up on the bath mat next to the shower.

"Liefste?" he called, a name that he'd been calling the other man for as long as he could remember. He wondered where Harper had gone, if he was home at all.

After getting off of work Star realized that she needed two more books before fall session started up. She knew that it was insanely early to be worried about her books, but she always liked getting a head start on her studies. So, after a bit of a bus ride, she walked across the campus and headed into the bookstore.

Twenty minutes later she was sitting on a bench in the quad, reading the introduction to her psychology book. After getting through the introduction, she paused her reading and looked up, glancing around to see if she recognized anyone from her classes the semester before. She had debated on taking classes during the summer, but she had never done so before. She figured that if she saw someone she had seen in class before, she could pick their brains about summer classes.
