"Yay ice cream!" Megan flew up off her bed when Doreen walked in. She rushed over to help her roommate with the bag. "Oh peanut brittle. That sounds yummy."
Megan wasn't quite sure what prompted her roommate to throw a ice cream night (and she wouldn't complain about that.) She just hoped no one was making Doreen's stay at the mansion hard. She really liked her roommate and she remembered what it was like to be new. She also remembered being picked on when she first got to the institute, because of her helmet. She didn't want Doreen to go through that.
She hoped that Doreen just wanted to have an ice cream night to get to know her roommate better. That was probably it. If there was something wrong, Doreen would tell her.
"I got some Disney movies to watch. And some movies with animals in it. I heard the Secret of Nimh is good and has mice and rats and stuff. Those aren't squirrels but they're rodents so I thought you might like it. I also found a Spongebob DVD. I know there's a squirrel in that."
