As soon as He Ming returns with the drinks, Ryan sets that pencil down. Knowing that it's too hot to drink just yet, Ryan simply picks up the cup to warm his hands and inhale the scent. Coffee is probably the only food or drink he actually likes, and this cup has a pleasing scent. Not that he has the time to really appreciate it before He Ming thoroughly distracts him. The way his hand drags up his arm has him shivering a bit, though it's not unpleasant.

He's so close...

Ryan sets the mug back down, watching him curiously for a couple seconds before responding, "There's no time for a break. I need to graduate before my scholarships are up."
