Aurora came to school earlier than usual, not trying to see her parents after the night that they caused her great inconvenience because the two couldn't just do that when she wasn't there.

The school halls were empty, it was just her and an occasional teacher going from class to class.

Until she spotted someone in the hall.

It was that blonde girl.

The one John was holding so endearingly.

Aurora skipped over to her, the girl glanced to her left and smiled politely. "I'm Aurora, and I know it's kind of weird that I'm just y'know- so eager to talk to you." Aurora nervously smiled back.

The girl waved it off, "Nah, It's cute! Are you a freshman?"

Aurora blushed, "Er.. I'm a junior."

The girl laughed, "Well, you act all shy like one. What are you shy for?"

"Well, I know John, and uh- I felt if I gave this back to him as quick as possible, it would be better." Aurora placed his poetry book in the girl's hands.

"Woah!" She exclaimed, running her hands over the cover of the book, "Johnny never let me touch this! How'd you get it?"

The question wasn't really investigatory, but Aurora was sweating. "He left it behind in our poetry class."

"Sure," She nodded, "I'll give it to my boyfriend when I see him."

"Uhm, thanks, Julia." Aurora almost took off, when the girl gave her a quizzical look.

"My name's Cynthia."
