Where Have You Been? [Cece]

[Rory Lennox]

It was finally Friday and Rory was finally finished with class. Math was her last class on Fridays, and her least favorite subject. It wasn’t always like that, but her new math teacher was so hard. When she’d told her mom about it, she just said that Rory probably wasn’t trying hard enough. But she was studying with Sasha now, and the tests just didn’t seem like they were getting any easier.

Well, at least the weekend was here and Rory wouldn’t have to worry about it until Monday. Now she was looking just looking forward to dance practice. It wasn’t real dance practice, but she would always head to the training rooms a few times a week to make sure her technique was up to par. Dance team was fun, but it wasn’t as intensive as the classes she would take at home.

She was just stopping by her dorm room to change and pick up her dance bag. She had to stop and ask her history teacher a question about a project, so almost everyone was already settled back in their respective rooms. Or they’d decided to go somewhere else. It was Friday and it was actually a really nice day out, so there were also a lot of people outside in the courtyard.

Rory was fishing through her bag as she walked down the hallway looking for her keys, when she accidentally clipped someone’s shoulder. “Sorry!” Rory said, looking up and seeing a familiar face. “Oh! Hi, Cece.” She greeted her former roommate with a smile. She hadn’t seen her…since she moved out probably?

Fact: Friday was the longest day of the week.

If someone were to ask Cece how her classes went today, she wouldn't really have much to say. She went to them, the teachers said stuff, she remembered some of that stuff. There was no training today, which was THE WORST. But! Butbutbut! It was BEAUTIFUL outside and Cece was determined to enjoy it.

As soon as class was over, she ran back to her room to dump her backpack and change into clothes that could get dirty. After that, she got distracted by a pile of junk on her desk and rearranged it. She also had to make sure that fresh air was getting into her room. Stale winter air was sooo gross. But once she was set all set with the window, she had to have the door open to have air actually come in, but she didn't want to LEAVE it open while she was gone! So Cece left the door open and cleaned up some of the other stuff she had sitting around her room. Mostly clothes she had kicked under the bed.

Her room was probably freshened up by now, right?

Cece shut her door and then began making her way outside. She was trotting along when suddenly something ran into her! Someone. Well, that was good. She hated running into doorways and stuff, but it happened. Oh, someone she knew, too!

"Oh hi!" she exclaimed. "Rory! I haven't seen you in, like, forever!"

It had been a while since the two girls had seen each other, even though Rory had only moved down the hall a little bit. But Rory was used to always being busy, so she was constantly trying to find something to do, whether it was dance team, dance practice, training, or her school work. She was going to try to join more clubs too, since even after all that stuff, she still had more time on her hands than she needed.

Cece seemed like the type of person who always wanted to be busy too, although it wasn’t as much of the structured type of busy that Rory preferred.

“I know, it’s definitely been awhile.” Which made her a little sad because she like Cece a lot. They were both very outgoing, along the other girls in her old suite; although Cece was definitely way more hyper than Rory. But her telepathy just made it difficult in her old room.

However, she did love her new suite mates a lot too, and just because Rory couldn’t live with Cece (at least not right now) didn’t mean they couldn’t still hang out and stuff, right? “Are you going outside?” She asked. Since it looked like she was coming out of her room and classes were over, that seemed like a pretty logical assumption.
