Ella heard an older girl also asking if anyone wanted to partner and she walked over, smiling nervously at the girl.
"I'll be your partner. I'm Ella, by the way...do you want to get pricked or do you want to use your potion?" Truth be told, Ella would rather stick herself and fall asleep than be unable to wake up her partner!
