 <.< >,> v.v ^,^!
Running, running, running, stopping, trying to stop, skidding.
Bushy tailed and wide eyed, Ivory skidded past the doorway just a tad out of breath. Ooooh, what kind of prefect was she anyway. Running late and interrupting. She'd never keep her badge at this rate.
Lips parting apologetically to excuse herself, she paused just inside of the classroom. The near empty classroom.
"Oh."
Oh, was right. Yes...well...hmmm. It would seem she was not late after all. Staring down incredulously at her charmed wristwatch, she shook her wrist energetically.... as if that alone would make the apparently running fast minute hand drop back. Gah. It would seem glaring at the watch face made no difference. She'd rushed, dressed in a hurry, ran flights of stairs wearing two different socks only to be right on time and maybe even a little early.
Exhaling a sigh that sent her longs bangs up and out of her eyes, she walked all the way into the classroom with a smile towards the woman sitting behind the desk. "Hello, Professor."
Plopping down on one of the front seats, she leaned back slightly. Now to catch her breath and get rid of that ridiculous hammering feeling in her chest that always happened when she woke up late. Or well, 'thought' she woke up late.
