Some people were arriving, so Kalinda watched them. She was begining to get worried. How many students did this school have? How many would come to this dance? She leaned against a wall, near an exit, just in case it all became too much for her, maybe coming to a valentine's dance wasn't such a good idea. But she wanted to come, wanted to see it. 

She just hoped no omes emotions were running too high. Strong, powerful emotions could and would press up against her blocks, and break through. As long as she kept her own emotions in check, she should be okay. Simple really, just stay a wall flower. Except that brought on self loathing and embarrassement, both sore spots with her.

just act normal then. She sighed, and looked down, focusing on her shoes. High heels. Not much good for a quick get away. She felt oddly calm after that. That was normal.
