Billie waited for something to happened. Anything. Standing in a crowd of people was never her strong suit. Crowds of any kind were never her strong suit. She even found it hard to be surprised by the strange Headmaster's words. It was something her mother would have done. Super flashy and unnecessary. She sighed, trying not to freak out because of the mass amount of people around her, all of them probably better than her. 

It was a pretty regular thing. After all, Billie was one of the lowest of her class. Her entrance exam over the summer hadn't exactly inspired much hope. She was in the freshmen classes even though she was clearly older than most of the students there. Still, she was trying and that was all that mattered, right? Even if everything blew up in her face. 

She bit her lip, trying her best to get out of the crowd and into a more... secluded area of sorts. She wasn't a loner... She just hated crowds. She always had. Something about feeling lost... She shook her head and quickly made her way down to the stables to check on Eva, more worried about the horse she hadn't seen all day than meeting with any of the other students...

She paused at the door, memories coming back to her from this morning.

[i]"...Try to make some friends? For me?"[/i]

The face of her mother, those worried eyes staring her down. She'd promised... Letting out a frustrated groan, Billie turned around, a scowl on her face no doubt, as she looked around the room for someone to talk to. She noticed a blonde girl sitting on the ground and decided to walk over to her, offering a hand to the younger female. [b]"Surprised?"[/b] Billie asked with her hand held out to the girl. [b]"I would have been had I not been.. preoccupied by other things..."[/b] She explained, her voice trailing off.
