You claim not to be frightening, then pretty much threaten me on your next sentence. Very convincing. Absolutely not frightening at all.
That's good. I'm sure you grade their work fairly. You were always really good at reviewing my work, I remember.
[ It gets a little chillier the farther up north he goes. He doesn't have a lot of really warm clothes, but the Spring brings along some sun and he finds that it's only at the end of the day, when it starts to get dark, or early in the morning, when there's barely even any light out, that he needs a few extra layers, and he buys a thick sweater and a jacket on the way for that reason exactly.
Going by bus is tiring and it takes a while, but he doesn't have enough money for a car, and he's not about to steal one. He's also not going to get on a plane. So, hopping from one bus to the next, hitchhiking where he can manage to get someone willing to drive him a little farther up north, sleeping in dingy little motels by the side of the road, finally, eventually, he makes it there.
And then, he... stalls. He tracks down her address first, easy enough. Goes to the college where she works now. He's definitely in full creepy stalker ex mode at this point, but he doesn't really care.
He's absolutely delaying approaching her at all because he's a coward, and he has no idea how to. Now that he's so close, the distance between them feels like a gaping abyss, and how is he even supposed to cross that? ]
