i wake up. a pit forms in my stomach as i remember that last night was crybaby's last in our dorm, and she has to be transferred to kelly's. i sigh and sit up in bed, looking around. everyone is slumbering peacefully, except for crybaby.

her bed is empty. i hear the soft noise of sink water running in the bathroom. i think of iris, who should be arriving this afternoon. i climb out of bed and slip on my uniform, patiently waiting for crybaby to get out of the bathroom. around 10 minutes pass, and i get curious.

i walk up to the door of the bathroom and knock softly. "crybaby?" i don't hear a response, only the previously running water turned off. the door opens.

not crybaby, but a tall girl sharing a striking resemblance with me. the one and only, iris l/n. i whip my head to crybaby's bed, only to now notice her stuff is gone. i turn back to iris before speaking shakily. "iris?"

"hey sis." she says, her voice a soft rasp. "what..where's crybaby?" i ask, my tone sharp. "oh the cute girl? she left for another dorm an hour ago." she responds, my jaw clenches at how she describes her.

i open my mouth to speak but shut it quickly, shoving past iris and starting my morning routine. with crybaby, occupying my mind, i do a style of makeup similar to hers: light pink eyeshadow and matching blush, long eyelashes and winged eyeliner with babydoll lip gloss.

i finish up the rest and walk out the bathroom, only to see fleur and iris chatting it up, angelita sitting on her bed awkwardly.

i grab angelita who's sitting next to her backpack, and pull her with me out of the room after grabbing my own, the door shuts behind us with a soft click.

"who is she?" she asks, obviously confused. "iris, my...sister." i mumble the last part and start walking to kellys dorm, angelita strolling beside me. "you two arent...on the best terms, no?" she asks carefully. "yeah.. not really." i murmur. we step up to kelly's dorm door and i knock softly. footsteps approach, and a cute dark-skinned girl with space buns and a butterfly hair clip opens the door.

"do i know you?" she asks and raises an eyebrow. "im y/n..and this is angelita." i gesture to us. "im- we're.. looking for crybaby."
i say and strain my neck to peak inside, not seeing much since the door is barely open.

"im celeste-"

"who is it?" an annoyed kelly shoves celeste out the way and opens the door wider. i catch a glimpse of crybaby in the corner of the room, on a bed talking to a pretty dark skinned girl with long braids. kelly looks me up and down and and scoffs. "what do you want, freak?" she spits angrily. "let me in. id like to chat with crybaby."

kelly speaks to interject, but celeste interrupts. "come in, both of you." i smile and nod gratefully as angelita and i step into the copy and paste room of our dorm.

i notice crybaby perk up at the sound of my voice, and we lock eyes. my thoughts are interrupted by the soft voice of angelita. "hey." she walks over to crybaby and the other girl. "hi lita!" crybaby excitedly chirps but her eyes say otherwise as they're still locked with mine, clouded with an emotion i cant decipher.

"this is magnolia." she gestures to the peaceful seeming girl sitting on the bed beside her. "hi ladies." she says, her voice smooth as she nods to angelita and i.
