"Oh, I'd love that!" Penny said excitedly. "And Penelope won't mind -- she's pretty cool about me going places and doing stuff. I think she's just glad I've got friends."
To be fair, Penny was glad for it too. Not like she'd ever thought she wouldn't make friends, she was pretty good at it, but she'd been a little worried about how high school would go. So far so good, though.
As much as Penny missed home, she would readily admit she was glad that she wasn't trying to do high school with a bunch of Secret Service agents around. That would've been entirely too much -- and was what she had to look forward to if she ever went home. Joys of being the President's daughter.
