They did go report Jim to the adults, who promised them that they would make sure Jim was directed away from the girls. His transformation was almost done anyway, so he would only have to stay there for another day or two.
They went to lunch and split off from Aaron who had her own table that she had been assigned to.
The food in the cafeteria actually looked pretty good even better than in his high school. He and Mark grabbed their food and made their way to their table only to find it decently empty, save for two androgynous boys sniffing far apart from another. One looked completely normal whole the other had a large lizard tail growing out from his butt and scaled hands.
The normal glanced up at staring at his food to see the two approaching and opened his mouth, only for a long thin pointed tongue to drop out of his mouth, the point of it ending near his chin. He blushed and quickly used his hand to shove the tongue back into his mouth and remain silent. The lizard one didn't even bother to glance in their direction.
Mark and Sam exchanged a look. Well this wasn't going to a lively lunch.

Apparently, Aaron had the same problem. The group of new friends convened after lunch to trade stories. Apparently Aaron's table only had two other girls, also turning into men. One was crying while the other was going their best to comfort them. Neither of them paid Aaron any mind.
The group decided to head towards media room, in order to play some games and take their minds off recent events(they had missed orientation due to their change). As they walked, Sam noticed that a lot of boys that they passed on the hallway would perk up the moment he passes them and stare at him until he was about a foot away, before shaking their heads in apparent confusion. None of them really tried to approach him, which he was thankful for, but he figured that all of them were a little distracted by their own changes to think about a supposed pretty girl.
Boy. He meant boy. He wasn't ready to fold and start thinking himself as a slut.
The media room was packed, but the group of three managed to find a corner in the room where they played some board games. However Mark would often win the games, as Aaron and Sam would often get distracted by staring at each other and not paying attention. Mark never called any attention to this, just silently and happily winning each game.
Time passed and soon it was dinner. Mark and Sam once again found themselves with the two other boys. The long tongue one mumbled something that sounded like a "hello," while the lizard one continued to ignore them.
The facility had a curfew of 7 PM, since the virus made the afflicted much more tired and exhausted. While neither communicated it to each other, both Sam and Aaron were secretly hoping to have sex again before it was too late.
However, to their dismay, a security guard stopped the group from entering their rooms. "Go to your own dorm rooms, please," he said, giving them a hard look with his yellow eyes.
"Um…" Aaron said. "We were hoping to sleep together and-"
The guard scowled. "Room assignments exist for a reason," he said. "It's too prevent things like what happened to you from even happening. Now…" He pointed his stick at the couple. "You own dorm. Now."
Aaron didn't bother to hide his disappointment as he gave both Mark and Sam a small hug, which only made Sam's heart beat a little faster.
Mark scowled at the guard as they entered and when he closed the door to their dorm, he began to complain. "I really wanted to lose my virginity," he grumbled, hoping into his bed. "Fuck."
Sam felt a little sorry for Mark, but there wasn't much he could do about it. Instead he just curled up in his own bed, as he felt exhaustion began to take a hold of him. As he fell asleep, Sam only prayed that, somehow, he would be back to normal come morning.
