Yuki's eyes would glow,

"A-Are you making lobster bisque!?" Yuki asked. Reo nodded as she smiled with her eyes closed.

"When will it be done??" Yuki asked. Reo shrugged,

"I don't know, Are you going to the Christmas party?" Reo asked. Yuki would look at her surprised as he slugged down.

"I don't wanna…" Yuki said. "Then no soup for you…" Reo said. Yuki groaned,

"Why does everyone want me to go to this damn party…" Yuki groaned. Reo sighed,

"Because we want you to get back out there Yuki… I don't like it when you're like this…" Reo said. Reo would take the spoon out of the pot and lay it down on a towel. She would stand across the island from Yuki. Reo and Yuki would make eye contact.

"Listen to me Yuki, If you ever take any advice from your dear old mom… If you have really good friends you like… Keep them around…" Reo said as she turned back to cooking. Yuki would gulp,

"Alright…" Yuki said as he started tearing up. Yuki would wipe his eyes,

"Alright… I guess I'll go…" Yuki said. Yuki would get off the stool and walk up the stairs to his room. Yuki would take off his hoodie. He would be wearing a white T-shirt. Yuki would stand in front of the mirror in his bathroom. Yuki would lift his shirt,

"I have a gut now…" Yuki thought. Yuki would look out the window at the snow falling.

"I wonder If the old geezer would be up to putting me back in shape…" Yuki thought. Yuki shrugged, he would walk over to his bed and grab his phone. He would text Kaki,

"How are people dressing?" Yuki asked. Kaki would start typing.

"A semi-casual suit or something." Kaki texted back. Yuki would sigh as he walked over to his closet and grabbed his suit. Yuki would examine the suit. Yuki would grab a white undershirt from his closet. He would walk into his closet and close the door. 20 minutes later at a ballroom in downtown 13. Nakamura, Ben, Callie's new boyfriend, and Callie would be sitting at a table talking. Nakamura would have her hair in a ponytail with curtain bangs while wearing a red strapless dress. Callie would have her hair down with her bangs covering her forehead. She would be wearing a green Bodycon dress. People in the ballroom would be talking, dancing, drinking, and laughing.

"Is Yuki coming?" Callie asked. Nakamura sighed,

"I honestly doubt it, he usually holds up in his house alone nowadays…" Nakamura said. Callie sighed as she her hair out of her eyes.

"Hey Babe, could you get us some drinks?" Callie asked. Callie's boyfriend would get up and walk over to the punch. Nakamura would smile,

"How long have you two been together?" Nakamura asked. Callie would look up from her phone at Nakamura.

"Oh uh… Nearly two and a half months…" Callie said as she looked back down at her phone. She would be looking at her texts with Yuki. On October 31st, Callie asked Yuki to come to her Halloween party. Yuki left her on read.

"Hey Yuki, I know it's been a while since we've talked. I wanna know if you would like to come hang out with me and Charlie?" Callie texted Yuki on November 12 at 1:30 PM. On the same day at 1:50, Yuki would respond with

"I'll pass, and please stop texting me. I'm busy." The text said.

"Babe… Babe!" Charlie said sitting next to Callie. Callie would look up at Charlie surprised.

"I brought the drinks," Charlie said. Callie would look at the table. Callie would grab her cup downing the drink. Meanwhile, outside the ballroom in the hallway. Yuki would be standing there with headphones around his neck. He would be wearing a black suit with a red tie. He would put a fedora with a red band on his head. He would grab the door handle pulling it open. Yuki walked into the ballroom looking around. Callie would look at the entrance of the ballroom spotting Yuki. Yuki and Callie would make eye contact. Yuki would swerve his eyes over to Akuga and Kaki talking to each other. Callie would shake her head and look back to her group. Yuki would walk over to Akuga and Kaki.

"Yo, Kaki. What's up." Yuki said. Kaki would turn around looking at Yuki.

"Oh, Yuki! What's up, man!" Kaki said smiling. Yuki would have a small smile,

"Nun much…" Yuki said. Kaki would laugh,

"The dorm's been pretty boring alone, you should come back," Kaki said. Yuki would shrug as a man in a suit walked over to him.

"Can I hang up your hat sir?" The man asked. Yuki would nod, handing the man his fedora. The man would walk away putting Yuki's hat on a rack.

"What have you been doing the past 3 months?" Kaki asked. Yuki would shrug,

"Not much really, it's been kind of boring…" Yuki said. Kaki would take a sip of some punch. Suddenly, someone would tap Yuki's shoulder. Yuki would turn around. It would be a boy the same age and height as Yuki. He would have spiky navy blue hair.

"Yuki Homura? I'm Thomas Wright, nice to meet you." Thomas said with his hand out to shake Yuki's. Yuki would shake his hand,

"Nice to meet you, have we met?" Yuki asked. Thomas would look at Yuki confused,

"No I don't think so…" Thomas said.
