The three boys sighed in relief and start to file from the room. No one else moved while they exited the room.403Please respect copyright.PENANAGCYceJgLOq

"Where's Robin?"403Please respect copyright.PENANA4uM9W1Zz1V
403Please respect copyright.PENANA2wTkIspHaw
"He had to leave for that business dinner." Alexander spoke watching her, his eyes narrowed.403Please respect copyright.PENANAeOhDctDhFA
403Please respect copyright.PENANA4xljc7jLm5
"Eliza Benedetti." Leonardo hummed, "She's actually Italian, right?"403Please respect copyright.PENANAq3CM5bq9kU
403Please respect copyright.PENANAhe1mbpuLMe
"Yeah, mother and father." Alex groaned, rolling his eyes.
There was a hint of a smile on his face as he listened to their conversation, although not joining in.
"Hi, I'm Lily. Need any help?" Lily questioned, tapping her shoulder, as she wondered down the hallway. 403Please respect copyright.PENANANdsPCgLZfe
"Hey. Yes please, do you know where Room 124 is and where Business Corporations and Trade is?" Eliza asked.403Please respect copyright.PENANAgjfMyHsCsz
"Yeah!" Emily said getting really excited, "Your room is across the hall from me and B.C.T. Is in Wing A, Hall D. Big double doors couldn't miss it."403Please respect copyright.PENANArXHftqNdHJ
"Well this seems to be the beginning of a new friendship." Eliza laughed tossing her arm over Lily's shoulders, "So. What's it like here?"403Please respect copyright.PENANAWQqHrqmm1j
403Please respect copyright.PENANAdJArRb1l1R
"It's pretty good, actually. With the right privileges you could get away with murder and the Principal would cover it up for you." She said, "You re in. I've literally never seen her smile more than when she was introducing you."403Please respect copyright.PENANAcv6ho63Zx5
403Please respect copyright.PENANA6xiIl1VJ10
"Seriously?" Eliza's eyebrows scrunched up. 403Please respect copyright.PENANAX0hR2fxtR8
403Please respect copyright.PENANAcCsowV7x8O
"Yeah." Lily said laughing at her reaction.403Please respect copyright.PENANA8KVosmToPM
"Okay here's your stop and here's mine." Lily said.
"How long will you be awake?"
"Another five hours at least I've got homework to finish up." Emily answered.403Please respect copyright.PENANAmYqj5hAYgs
403Please respect copyright.PENANAXvGCGtjwwT
"Okay. Good, we can gossip when I get back." Eliza mumbled, mentally penciling in the personal time into her schedule.403Please respect copyright.PENANA6YXryTMCFk
403Please respect copyright.PENANAKc2itl65FU
"Some business thing?" Lily asked, standing in her doorway and already knowing the answer. 403Please respect copyright.PENANAQYOp5hTgAm
403Please respect copyright.PENANA1QTOZyrvBI
"Yeah, a dinner with the Claire's."403Please respect copyright.PENANAvUkqbwpd1c
403Please respect copyright.PENANAKMulfKVDmS
"That's Robin and his family." By the look on Eliza's face told her that she recognized the name, but had no clue who she was talking about and as if for further emphasis Eliza shook her head slowly, "Did you notice for boys in the front row. The one with the blonde hair is Robin."403Please respect copyright.PENANAyz5LugGI5Q
403Please respect copyright.PENANABnAkPQzYSX
"Who were the other two?" Eliza questioned.403Please respect copyright.PENANAV31CszccGP
403Please respect copyright.PENANApy3TcD5NEa
"Brown hair wasLeonardo Clauder he's a writer and musician, you'll probably meet him tomorrow, Marshal Bauer specializes in mathematics, science, and astronomy, and then Alexander Dane—"403Please respect copyright.PENANAdadpcxi5FJ
403Please respect copyright.PENANAoevalsatRW
"Yeah, I know Xander, that kid doesn't ever smile." Eliza said, "Is Robin like him, forever frowning?"403Please respect copyright.PENANALWrdHudurL
403Please respect copyright.PENANAXOK36ulGO5
"Yes, he is." Lily said turning to go inside her room, though when Eliza went quiet she turned back around to look towards her.
Eliza was staring down the hallway at an approaching figure, Lily couldn't quite make out.
403Please respect copyright.PENANAuyvTq5SbI7
"Alex!" Eliza called out as he got within yards of them. 403Please respect copyright.PENANAnR1hNAeeTQ
403Please respect copyright.PENANAGYMyTJhCNJ
"Eliza." he rolled his eyes as he mocked, feigning his emotions.403Please respect copyright.PENANALEK42LNEMb
Nonetheless when Eliza stretched up to hug him, Alex returned to the gesture and gave her a genuine smile.
"It's been a while, friend." Eliza smiled, "Dovremo fare qualcosa al più presto. E 'stato troppo a lungo. (We will have to do something soon. It has been too long.)"403Please respect copyright.PENANAh31AaQ8qIr
He paused for a moment and nodded in agreement, "Okay. I'm free all next week, except for Monday and Thursday."
He turned to Lily and talked to her quietly, Eliza straining to hear, for about a second. 403Please respect copyright.PENANAIobzBLBR9b
"Okay. What is happening here?" She said sighing and cocking her hip out.403Please respect copyright.PENANACO23uUtMgP
"None of your business, Benedetti." Alexander scoffed, keeping his back to her.403Please respect copyright.PENANA9OTxhhF2mV
"Look at me?" She smirked.
"Don't you have a dinner to go to? Go get ready." Emily scolded, but smiling all the same.
"Alexander."
"I'll walk you to your car. Go. Get. Ready." He turned around and looked at her. 403Please respect copyright.PENANAxvwG6331XX
A smile of victory spread across her face and she spun around on the heel of her foot stepping into her dorm room, "Its adorable, really," she called back. 403Please respect copyright.PENANADxXH3INiiu
Eliza's mouth dropped open, "Holy shit. . ." 403Please respect copyright.PENANARt7AIcWm6h
"What?" Emily questioned slipping past Asher, who followed her with his head down and his hands in his pockets.403Please respect copyright.PENANANFMJVqR8Ec
"I have a balcony!"403Please respect copyright.PENANAe1eWhSJ7At
Eliza was standing on the balcony, leaning over the railing, staring at the sun that was just starting to set. 403Please respect copyright.PENANAeQZURe5mVy
"Most rooms in the east and west wings have them." Lily nodded.
"Get ready." Xander stared down at her and shook his head.403Please respect copyright.PENANAFFaOBlFP7i
Eliza rolled her eyes and walked into her closet.403Please respect copyright.PENANAXN4OMUlw73
"Good luck." 403Please respect copyright.PENANAZZYco5piAA
"Thanks, I'll probably need it." He replied back and sat down on her bed.403Please respect copyright.PENANAdA2PtRVw0s
The door closed lightly behind Lily, leaving the two of them together. Eliza stayed in her closet as she stripped from her uniform.403Please respect copyright.PENANAiZ1h14Y2rX
"Blue or black?"403Please respect copyright.PENANAeGYN6ZknBL
"Blue."403Please respect copyright.PENANAA46ld1gMYG
Eliza came out carrying a pair of dark, navy blue heels in her hand and clothed in a matching dress.
"Are you almost ready?"403Please respect copyright.PENANASnWUPO9CNP
"Almost. Jeez." Eliza said slipping her feet into the heels as she walked towards her bathroom, "Just gotta straighten my hair and do my make-up."403Please respect copyright.PENANAeMuMuGRJhD
Eliza disappeared into the bathroom listening for a response. The bed shifted and she poked her head back outside.403Please respect copyright.PENANAElBCP8AUB3
"You're laying down? It's not going to take me that long."
"It will if you keep talking."
She muttered bad words in Italian under her breathe and stomped into the bathroom. She plugged the flat iron into the outlet and let it heat up unaware of the fact that she'd started singing to herself. Eliza made it halfway through the song before the iron was hot enough and quickly started to section and straighten her hair. Once done she moved onto her make-up. She'd done it earlier before her introduction and now she was simply applying touch ups to things like: her eyeliner, her mascara, her lip stain, and her foundation and highlight.
"What time do you have to be there?"
"Oh, I'm late. I was suppose to be there around 5:30," Eliza shrugged.
"It's 5:30 now." Emily gasped and pushed her out of her room, "You're impossible."
