Silver Leaf Academy Event Hall[/b][/u][/indent]

[color=orchid]"Right, here you go!"[/color] Karen offered a pair of plastic cups to a couple of older students dressed as Walter and Skyler White. Filled with green punch, it was her assigned job to offer drinks and food to all the other students here at the school Halloween Party. It was an event open to students of every grade, so you'd [i]think[/i] one of the teachers could fill her role tonight, but...

...No. She honestly [i]wanted[/i] to say that it was strange that she would be asked to do this before any of the faculty, but as the only Hispanic student in an otherwise snow white private school, she really couldn't claim to have been too surprised when the event coordinator had asked her to fill the role.

He had apparently thought he was doing something really nice for her too.

Still, it isn't like she had anything better to do here. She had simply went dressed as a Hogwarts student...a little in-joke that only she would get. And hey, maybe if she kept smiling and being friendly, the other students would actually warm up to her a bit. Dare she hope for the possibility of actually making a new [i]friend?![/i]

Heh.

Well, at least she got all the free punch and snacks she wanted, so long as she kept everyone else filled up. Plus, a front row seat to whoever ended up winning best costume of the party! She really cared so much about that! But this was all the price of being too damn soft to ever tell anyone "no". Clarissa always told her that it was her fatal flaw. Given all the gross fanart she'd been coerced into to looking at, the other teen might've been onto something there.

...Was it wrong that she was secretly hoping that Samantha would call her with some emergency?
