Insomnia and a walk.

Brian and you exchange some small talk before you head up the stairs to your bedroom. Despite your earlier nap you're feeling tired, and look forward to a solid night's sleep.

It doesn't happen. You fall asleep easily but wake suddenly in a dark room. Fumbling for the switch you turn the light on to find it's shortly before midnight. You grumble to yourself, realising that this is another episode of the insomnia that has periodically troubled you for years. From experience you know that lying in bed and trying to will yourself back to sleep will be counterproductive, and you get up and huddle into your clothes, intending to take a walk in the night air.

The cottage is dark and you assume Brian is sleeping. You leave the cottage and take a deep breath, filling your lungs with the clean air. You stroll towards the main campus, enjoying the cool of the night and the moonlight shadows on the grounds of the campus.

You're near the Mellon building when you hear a door open and hushed voices. You see the shadowy forms of at least three people coming out of the side door of the building and making their way towards the upper campus. Curious, you follow them, staying to the shadows.
