Nice.
He looked up and saw a girl about his age standing above him. She seemed pretty... excited about the raffle, though he couldn't really tell why. He got up, brushing the dirt of himself, but was mainly just his face.
Suddenly he saw it as a bit of a blessing. Maybe the mud would help disguise his fresh cuts on his cheeks. But it didn't it just made him look as if he'd been beaten up by a mud puddle. Really.
"Sorry." He mumbled to her, once on his feet.
India felt a - well, someone bump into her and looked up to see a rather muddy boy her age. Muddy because he fell face-firt into the mud. Ouch.
"I'm fine, sorry you er fell on the ground." She blushed slightly, not exactly wanting to comment on his rather raggidy appearance. He just looked like a few rocks had decided to pelt him when he fell. Evil rocks. "Um so you know, you have mud all over, i'm sorry - so I've got a question." She smiled confidentally, her blue eyes twinkling mischieviously.
"Would you want to start over forget about falling over and introduce eachother and all - it would be nice to know atleast one person here to be honest!" India smiled. Her accent was thick and almost sticky like veggiemite. Not her favorite breakfast treat. "I'm India," she smiled, offering her hand to shake in such a discrete way where if it weren't taken it wouldn't look like a mockery of the nervous new-girl.
