As usual, Mona had gotten up at around six-thirty to prepare for her morning exercises; she'd decided that it would be best to simply head to the assembly following her jog around campus. Mona [i]did[/i] feel slightly off as drew closer to the auditorium, her feet pounding the pavement and her lips mouthing the lyrics to the song that blasted through her earbuds. Although she didn't have a killer headache, there was a slight churn in her stomach as she pushed on. There weren't enough painkillers or Martin family remedies in the world that could change that. But as she finally stepped foot into the crowded space and began her search for an empty seat, it was pretty obvious that she felt a lot better than how some of her classmates looked. Mona's eyes instantly landed upon Nate as she walked down the aisle; he sat with a girl she barely recognized, and Mona could tell by the look on his face, as well as his current outfit, that he was in a hell of a lot of pain. Part of her felt slightly guilty for pushing the young man to drink as much as he did. Maybe then he wouldn't be in the state he was now. Ramona took the first empty seat she could find, which happened to be closer to the front of the room; she sat in between a guy who still reeked of alcohol, and a girl who could barely keep her eyes open long enough to see the Headmistress signal for their silence, let alone sit upright in her chair. With one of her earbuds still pumping neo-soul into her ear, Mona passively listened as the Headmistress began to speak. She clapped along when instructed to, and nearly fell out of her seat when it was announced that they'd all been placed on Academic Probation. [color=#B96D4D]"You've gotta be fucking kidding me,"[/color] Mona said, mostly to herself as the room erupted in a cacophony of conversation. [color=#B96D4D]"She can't just do that to the entire Junior class... right? That's bullshit."[/color] When Mona realized that her two seating neighbors weren't paying her any mind, she quickly stood from her chair and followed the rest of the crowd out of the auditorium. Mona's first instinct was to pull out her cell phone and send a quick message to Junie, but as she furiously typed and made a beeline for the cafeteria, a sudden text message from Nate made her stop in her tracks. [color=#B96D4D]"Groping me at the bash... huh?"[/color] Mona said, trying to comprehend the message that was displayed on her phone. [color=#B96D4D]"Nate, are you still drunk or something, dude?"[/color] Mona was prepared to type out a response, but it was in that moment that Mona also noticed that she wasn't the only one in the courtyard who'd received a notification. Her eyes widened as she realized that the message was sent to all of Nate's contacts. [color=#B96D4D]"Yikes."[/color] [center][quote][i][color=#B96D4D]"I reaaaally hope you don't have Ty's number saved in your phone, Nate..."[/color][/i][/quote][/center] [/indent][/indent][/indent][/color]
