Who: Simon and Sydni
Where: Sydni's Room (le gasp!)
When: After dinner

There went Sydni, walking out of the dining area and heading back to her room. Simon had been eating supper, thinking about his earlier encounter with Sasha, that dog and the fact that Heaven and Hell was closed for the week. Damn. He'd been wanting to go with Sydni. He'd been dying to go with her. He had so very badly wanted to scope the place out so when Cissy got back from New York, he could ask her to go. Oh well, it looked like things would be delayed another week.

All throughout dinner he'd been looking for Sydni. He had missed her after their Supernatural Races: Fact and Fiction class. The caf seemed like a sure place to find her, but he'd apparently missed her here, too. Moving as quickly as his gangly legs could carry him, Simon dumped his tray into the dirty dishes bin (some of it splashing onto the poor cafeteria workers) and raced out the door. Despite his exceptionally long legs, he again managed to just miss Sydni as she disappeared into the forbidden section- the House of Fire's girls' dormitories. Fantastic.

He waited a few moments, hoping another female would happen by and he could ask her to fetch Sydni for him. Ten minutes passed. Fifteen. Ninety, for all Simon knew. What he did know was that he was getting impatient, and not allowing the opposite sex into your room was a stupid rule. Where did the students have sex? On the school grounds, that's where. Wouldn't it make more sense to let them hole up in their rooms? He decided to go for it, consequences be damned. Making sure no one was looking, Simon snuck up to Sydni's door, took a deep breath and knocked.

Who:  Xander and Ita
What:  Surfing lessons postponed
When:  Morning
Where:  Meeting in front of the school and then Ita's room

Ita stared glumly at the rain.  Normally, she loved rain.  It made sense considering her relation to water.  But today she had plans, and the rain definitely would interfere.  While she had no problem surfing in the rain, it would probably cause a problem for her drying off when she'd fought the pull of the water for long enough.  Plus, most other people didn't like the rain, and the ocean was sure to be rougher and more dangerous with a storm.  Sighing, she leaned against the cool stone wall of the building and continued to stare out of the windows at the rain, very obviously pouting.

She hoped Xander would still want to hang out.  She did want to learn to surf, certainly, but she had wanted to spend some time with the Incubus.  She had definitely enjoyed the last time, and she hadn't really been able to spend time with anyone in that way since she'd gotten here, other than with him, of course.  Not that she just threw herself at any guy walking by, but she did enjoy the chance to fool around with a guy now and then.  And dating - it was always nice to go out with someone you were interested in, even if it was just for fun.

Sighing again, she cast a glance at the picnic basket she'd prepared.  Wine again, and salami and mozzerella pasties, with baklava for dessert.  It was rather light, so she'd also packed some grapes and plums.  Fruit was nature's candy, as far as she was concerned, and she ate it as often as she ate junk food.  Good thing, too - she might not have been so cute if she only ate junk food.

Hearing footsteps approach, she waited until they were close enough, and still looking out the window, she stated the obvious, "It's raining."  She sounded rather pathetic, but she was feeling rather pathetic.  It was rare that she disliked rain, but right now, she really did.
