Clary just gave a small giggle to Heather when she said to not let Cain know that she was the one asking about him. "Don't worry, your secret is safe with me. I'll let you know what I find out soon though, I might be able to get you something before actual lunch period." she said as they continued on with their early lunch. She was glad that Heather wanted to do a girls night too. It would definitely be super fun! "Okay." she said when she mentioned not inviting Jo. Clary wanted to ask, but at the same time she knew better. She didn't like to press anything like this because she knew it could possibly cause issues. "I don't think anyone really gets to hang out with her enough except for Billie anymore. She got to be better at being ghost-y than me over the last year." she laughed, "Plus, I mean, girls nights are always fun. Full of chocolate and drinking and games andandandanditsbeensolongsincewe'vehadonethatIcan'tevenrememberwhenwediditlast." Clary was beginning to get more excited, but once Heather helped her get back on the seat instead of in it, she took a deep breath and gave a small nervous laugh. "Yeah, and I don't think Morgan would appreciate having to be pulled away from class again to help me out." She took one more deep breath and ate another nacho. "Oh! I can totally do that thing to your hair I did last year when we have girls' night too! I found my hot curlers last night." -- If there was one good thing about Samanatha, it was that she was a very understanding person, especially given the circumstances. "I know, and I am sorry that you are having to shuffle around your lessons again. Reginald was not too happy with it either, but with things becoming more and more unpredictable it is best to prepare now. I do hope that with the amount of Demons in the school that will make that part of your lessons shorter." Aren said, and he gave a nod. His head was going faster than he intended, and as he walked away he called to her. "But I will be sure to tell the girl that she can find you anytime before midnight!" he continued on his way off, his mind relatively heavy still. So much going on, and so little time. "If I make it to the end of this year, I am going to Tahiti for the next decade." he mumbled to himself. -- Miles felt an immediate rush of embarrassment flood over him, but he was glad that this girl, Iris, seemed to be a good sport about it. How was he supposed to know though?! Not exactly like there were pictures of the teachers on his class list. He took a seat when she gestured to them, and he looked around the room. Her voice caught his attention again, and he shook his head. "Not exactly anyway. I was given a map, but as I have come to notice, it is not exactly easy to use." he gave a soft chuckle, "But I would definitely appreciate the tour. I will definitely need help learning the grounds here. The only place I have been to that I can even use as a comparison is Buckingham Palace, and even then, that was just a tour." He had to admit, it would be nice to be shown around this school, especially since he would need to have to plan out his routes to and from classes, and that would take a little time in and of itself. Especially with how large it was and how, according to the map, spaced out his classes were. The only good thing was that some of the classes would be easy, and that they hopefully had at least five minutes to get to class from their previous one. "So, how long have you been at this school? It seems like its a good place to be." -- Alex sighed as he and Jo entered the gym. She was really wrapped up in her thoughts, he could tell from how she was staring out into space, but before he could say anything someone came over to them. Alex gave a gentle smile and shook the girl, Willow's, hand. "Pleasure to meet you as well." he gave Jo a sidelong glance and he smiled a bit at the blush that tinged her cheeks. It wasn't too long after that when a girl with black hair approached them and introduced herself as Tiffany, Jo's oldest sister. Alex shook her hand and instinctively when she tightened her grip on his hand, he made his hand shake firmer. "As is nice to meet you, I'm Alex." he blinked only slightly at Tiffany's words before he gave a soft smile and a chuckle. "You sound like you would get along with my sister, Billie." he said. He watched the small interaction between the sisters, but he nodded when she told them he was going with her after classes to talk to Aren. He watched a moment as Long walked a little past them, and he looked to Jo when she spoke to him. "Of course you can. If you have any other classwork you need to work on, feel free to. If you need anything else, just ask. Right now, I do need to grab something out of my office though." he said as he walked off. Alex rubbed Jo's shoulder a little, but when he saw Devin, his whole body tensed. He couldn't act again today, but he did scoff a laugh at the bruised eye he had. Apparently Joe hit him pretty damn good, which was comforting. His eyes traveled briefly over to where Joe had walked into the class with Maggie, and he felt himself look over to Devin again. He knew how that weasel was, and he knew he was going to have to not only say something to Joe about it, but Maggie too. -- Billie and Randa walked into the gym after they changed, arm in arm, as they continued on talking. "But I totally pissed him off. It was so awesome. He's got a hell of shiner now too, so not only is he like a homing beacon of attention for his hair, his eye is going to get him some attention too." she laughed a bit and Billie chuckled and shook her head. "I hate that I don't have history with you and Maggie this year. It's always fun when we're all together. Wonder if you two will have Erin. That will just make that class even harder to control." Billie said. She laughed a little, but soon her attention was drawn to the girl who had choked up Devin yesterday. She was now definitely showing him why she shouldn't be fucked with, but her words sent a cold chill down her spine. She looked over to Alex and Jo and she saw the bruising on Jo's neck and it made her eyes go over black. "Now that girl definitely knows how to make an impression." Randa said, and she looked over to Long who blew his whistle. She could see him pretending not to notice what Tiffany was doing, and Randa smirked at that. This was why Long was one of the cooler teachers. "Everyone front and center! I'm assigning your class partners for the year. Now, I want you to know that today will be a little different than the rest as not everyone is here yet and we have more new students arriving. So, for the purpose of today, all those of you whose partners are not here or are sitting out, please pair off with someone else. Today is essentially a free day with the weights. You can also run laps or spar over there on the mats I have set up." Long said, looking at his clipboard. "Alex, I will need to speak with you in my office before you begin. And Devin, I will speak with you once I am through speaking with Alex. All the rest of you may go on as usual."
