The first thing Hayden took out was the map of the school she'd made last year. There were ten pieces of paper: one for each floor of course. It wasn't the best map obviously, just a rough outline of the rooms so she wouldn't get as lost. She wasn't a very good artist, but the map certainly had a lot of different colors on it. Hayden paused for a moment to study it. She smiled as she remembered Lex helping her work on it last year. And how she'd explored so many different parts of the castle in order to make it as accurately as possible. It wasn't wonderful, but it was pretty cool if she did say so herself. Hayden went back over to her trunk and took out her camera. It had been careful packed away in a nice carrying case. Now it was time for Hayden to take it out and she set it carefully on top of her dresser for future use. The clothes would be the last thing she put away because boring. She had more interesting things to unpack, like a picture of her and Mya from over the summer.
Next was the cat. No that wasn't right. Hayden stopped. She put her hands on her hips and stood at the end of her bed as she contemplated what was in front of her. It was like a game of what doesn't belong. The bed, the blanket, the pillows, the cat. The cat that wasn't hers yet still decided it was supposed to be curled up on her bed. She'd just been in that same spot, so where did the cat come from? "What are you doing?" She addressed the cat very formally. Please move sir or madam because that is not your bed. Hers. "Move." But it didn't. It just laid there, like it was deliberately disobeying her. Maybe it was. WHOSE CAT EVEN WAS IT? Norah had been skipping down to the dormitory with book in hand when she heard a voice coming from inside the door and stopped short. If somebody was IN there they couldn't just SEE her skipping. That was second year behavior, and she was NOT a second year anymore, even if she was still shorter than all of them. The THIRD year poked the door open with her finger and saw there was only one person inside. Weird. She could have sworn Hayden had been talking to somebody. Giving her dorm mate a big grin, Norah crossed the dormitory to her bed and sat on the soft quilt before saying, "Hey, Hayden! Have a good holiday?" Catching up, it was necessary. 'Specially 'cause even though they lived together she had never really gotten close with the other girl.
The thirteen year old found her eyes straying back to her book, which had a ginormous picture of a flower on it, as she waited for a reply. The plant book was just so COOL and the pictures were nothing short of awesomesauce, the very highest Norah praise. But then, "Is that a cat?" She stood up immediately to approach it, still grinning from ear to ear because WHAT IF HAYDEN HAD A CAT AND SHE COULD PLAY WITH IT AND BE BEST FRIENDS? It was a very legitimate question, y'know. She wasn't allowed to have a cat of her own but she DID like kitty snuggles. She liked 'em a whole lot.
