So much for starting fresh with a renewed sense of anonymity - he was already starting to make a name for himself at the school. Really though, he had spent pretty much his whole life in the spotlight and so it was hard for him to live any other way - much to the dismay of his parents and his bodyguards who would have had any easier time of it if he didn't insist on being so extroverted. The university was exponentially larger than his high school though so it would definitely be a greater challenge to conquer, but he was looking forward to trying something new, and so far so good. He already had the kids who worked at the coffee shop in his pocket - he was friendly and funny, consistent, and generous with the tips so it was no surprise that they had caught on to his usual order as well as that of his girl. He supposed it helped that he was a good looking guy with an endearingly goofy charm. In light-hearted conversation with the barista as he waited for the drinks, he looked down at her touch and broke an easy, crooked smile when he saw it was her. "Hey pretty girl. I did get you your drink, with an extra shot of vanilla because they forgot it yesterday and Kendra felt so rotten about it." He handed her her cup as the girl behind the counter passed it to him and dropped some change into the tip-jar with a wink to the employee before grabbing his own coffee, his free hand having found it's way to the base of her neck to guide her away from the counter. "Hi friend Tori. I can't believe you're making friends already, Rachelle." He mumbled teasingly and dropped his hand from his girlfriend in order to shake Tori's as he finally took a moment to actually look at his girl's companion. His smile lingering, he casually scanned the background to seek out his men who were on duty that afternoon - just to be sure - and then looked back to the girls, a brow cocking at Chelle as if expecting an explanation on why she had to be so darn friendly.
