Aetius shrugged, thinking that he had heard something - although this had happened before and there had been no one there. "I say we go and catch up on some sleep lost to the evils of homework and studying," he said as they walked away. "I don't need to bring much, after all. Just a few weapons and some birdseed." He looked once more over his shoulder as they left the cafeteria, as if searching for something that wasn't there. Ah well, perhaps there really was nothing there and they were just being paranoid.
