Week 19: Tuesday

Who: Titania & Sydni
Where: House of Fire's commons room
When: After classes
What: Introductions and possibly homework help!


Titania felt bad that she didn't go to her last class of the day. She kept thinking that her teacher probably hated her by now, and never wanted to speak to her again. Being as social as she was, that was going to hurt her pride - like nothing else did around this school. She was just someone who held it in and kept it locked inside.

And as she sat there - well, laying there now - trying to get this science assignment finished, something around the room kept trying to distract her. The CD player next to her wasn't helping much, even though she kept changing the track or CD every second. Yeah, she wasn't up-to-date with the whole ipods. A cellphone is still new to her. So is the computer! Maybe she should have done her English assignments on there, but writing them out in her notebook was helping her - with her wrist dying every so often.

You know, thinking about it, someone could easily sneak up on her and she'd be scared shitless. Slowly, she turned her head around toward the entrance to the common room, arching a perfectly drawn on eyebrow, but seeing no one there or walking by it. She was being panicky. But why? Shaking her head and basically laughing out loud at herself, Titania went back to working on her homework. Staring at it more like it.

But she finally moved a few seconds later to change the CD. That was when she saw something in the corner of her eye, causing everything to bounce out of her lap because she jumped probably a foot off the couch, almost having her whole body slam against the floor. Luckily the table was there to break her fall, both hands clenching onto the side while she stared at the stranger with wide eyes.

It was a girl once she was able to calm her heart and learn how to breathe again. "Oh, god. Wow. Hello. I didn't know you were there.. I'm so sorry!" Let's see how long it takes for Titania to say her sorry before someone kindly tells her to shut up.

Week 19 - Thursday

Who: Jillian and Ita
When: Thursday Evening
Where: Jillian's Room
What: Girl time!

It was time to see Ita. Jillian had been so busy with classes and boys that she'd barely been able to catch up with Ita, and girl time was a necessary part of her week that she didn't want to skip this time around. She had a lot to talk to Ita about, particularly boys. Particularly one boy. Maybe she shouldn't get her hopes up quite yet, but they'd had a good date. A very good date. She also wanted to ask Ita about her date with Kin and see how that had went. Jillian had missed Ita terribly.

She cleaned up her own room and got it ready to have Ita over. She didn't really have much in the way of entertainment, just a radio and some CDs. She didn't watch television, so she didn't have one, which sucked a little since they couldn't watch movies, but she figured that it was only fair that she hosted. Ita had done it the last few times, after all.

She'd left a message for Ita to come over at around seven. She had tea and cookies ready for her friend, and she was lounging on her bed in her pajamas when the knock at the door came. Bounding up, she moved over to the door and opened it, grinning widely as she moved to hug her friend. She'd changed a bit in the month that she'd been there. Hugging came a little bit more naturally to her, especially since she knew that Ita would return the hug freely.
