Marina moves to the side of the room again, sitting as far into the corner as she possibly can. She heard the word field trip and sort of paid more attention, but when the lecture started she took out her ink and quill and started to take as many notes as she could. She could tell from he way...

Marina slid into her desk at the corner, completely ignoring Freddie, which was fine because he didn't want to have much to do with her anyway. She listened when the professor talked about what they would be doing today, happy to follow along. She liked taking notes too, so it was nice when she...

Marina yawned as she sat in the class, mostly because she hadn't slept well the night before. She never did when she was coming off of a holiday or a weekend, it was just a fact for her. Though she wished it wasn't. She rolled her shoulders as she listened to the lecture, not really wanting to...

Marina headed into the class and sat in the corner of the room, trying to keep herself away from everyone else. She didn't have a lot of friends, or any really, outside of Selena and Ares pretty much, and Ares wasn't in this class. She listened to the professor as she talked about what they...

So they weren't going to the dance? Had he just come from there maybe? She was kind of relieved to hear she didn't appear to be missing out on anything, she had been wondering if there was thinking going on there she might have wanted to join in at, but if no one was having fun then she didn't...

"I really don't want to go to the dance, Ares," she said, trying to emphasise that she really didn't want to go to the dance. She wasn't going to be very good company anyway, at least here in the library she could exist without really taking up other people's space. This was a place she was...

Being honest with herself, Marina was surprised to see Ares in the library. Though she had invited him, she had rather thought he would have found someone to go to the dance with, or just simply attended by himself. Those kinds of things had never really been her forte, she wasn't like her...

Marina nodded as Ares sort of agreed to drop by. She wasn't sure if he was actually going to, but he hadn't told her anything he then hadn't done yet. She'd only known him barely three months but she wasn't sure that should matter, right? Friends could be forged in anything, and it wasn't like...

Most of the school was buzzing about the roses and whether or not they were going to the dance tonight, Marina had chosen the second option - ie, she didn't want to go. She'd gotten a couple of roses that she was happy about, but dances had never really been her thing. She'd only gone with Ares...

Marina was almost completely still as the professor started on the topic of certain dark wizards. She knew most of them only by name, as not much of what they had done had any effect on the small community of wizards in Puerto Rico, but even Grindelwald was well known over there. Voldemort not...

Marina avoided Freddie entirely as she headed into the class moving completely to the other side of the room. Frankly she didn't care what he thought of her anymore, and clearly he didn't think of her enough to even apologise for his behaviour so why should she even bother to try? She took her...

Marina smiled at Ares when he mentioned he hadn't decided if he was going. "Ah, okay, I hope you find someone, I would hate to think you went alone. I'm sure you will find someone though - you were sweet to me, and I'm sure that counts for something." She wasn't entirely sure why he'd gone with...

Marina rolled her eyes. She didn't know what he was capable of because he had so far resolutely denied her from getting to know anything about him and to this point she had no idea what she'd done to deserve the treatment he'd so far heaped on her. Maybe he knew about her mother? She doubted...

She looked down at the yellow rose and grinned when she saw it was from Selena. She liked her roommate. She wasn't entirely sure she would consider her a best friend, but she was a good friend at least, she was unobtrusive and that was the point really. "It's from Selena, she's my friend," she...

Marina noticed Freddie and Ares sitting together when she entered the class and wondered vaguely if maybe this meant they were friends now. She wasn't sure that made her very happy ad she knew that Freddie didn't like her for whatever reason. She wasn't sure she knew entirely why, she just had a...
