Hopefully it wouldn't be very full of students doing last-minute astronomy homework, otherwise he'd probably be out of there within a few minutes.
He watched Sadie as she rummaged around his her bag, all the while he was wondering how she knew his last name. When she handed over a letter, it all pieced together. "Oh, thank you." Lucky for him, she was nice enough to pick it up and give it to him. Most people would have left it there on the dirty floor. He opened up the letter. "Don't mind me," he told her as his eyes shifted to the parchment in his hands.
And it was from Lucie. He had been wondering where she had gone off to! And to think, he thought her leaving might have had something to do with the almost-drowning incident. He finally came to the end of the letter and he tucked it away in his back pocket. Poor Luce - sounded like she was going through a really rough time. He made a mental note to write her this week.
"From a friend," he said, finally breaking the span of silence.
Well that sounded like a reasonable enough excuse for her. "
Have you been to the Astronomy tower before?" she asked, crossing her arms across her chest. *facepalm* Obviously he probably had. That was one of the stupidest questions ever. Ugh she really should think before speaking. Like really. Astronomy wasn't required either and he may be one of those kids not taking it.
Phew. Good thing this guy didn't seem to think she was some freakish mail stealer girl. In fact he barely seemed to care about her having his letter. She stood there quietly as he skimmed through the note, carefully observing his facial expressions. Was it a good note? A bad one? Those kinds of things drove her insane in wanting to know. "
Oh I see. Is everything alright?" she pressed a little. Ehhh don't mind her and her pressing manner. Heh.
