Lawn of the Dorms | Late, Late, Late Night (2am EST)

It was a quiet night. Just after midnight, a steady rain had started falling, drenching the island quickly and showing no sign of slowing. A few hours later, at 2am, the peace of the night was broken when the fire alarm started blaring. It would shrilly blare, stop and then repeat the same shrill blare two seconds later. And it was not going to stop until the all clear was given.

Thus, all the students had to carry their tired selves from their snuggly significant others or their snuggly beds to go wait IN THE RAIN on the dorm lawn. The fire department was making sure all the students were a safe distance away from the school so there were no awnings to hide under. All the students would be stuck out in the steady rain.

The fire department headed into the building but this could take awhile. Enjoy your fire drill, kids!

[IT'S FIRE DRILL TIEMS! Just remember it's raining but it's warm. Have fun! See here for fire drill details! And take a look here for our previous fire drill!]

"Turtle."

Joan was practically whining. "I didn't grab my purse, but can I please have an umbrella? I'll stop by tomorrow and pay you."

Turtle was trying hard not to be amused by the fact that Joan sounded like she was kind of whining. "Yeah, no problem," Turtle said, offering one out to her. It was pink. She just grabbed it at random, really! "Just about everyone's taking a rain check on this one."

"...No pun intended."

So intended. What a liar.

"Thank you," Joan said, taking and opening the umbrella. It didn't dry her out, but at least she didn't have rain beating down on her head.

"And, hey, did you get a message from Marco the other day?"

Turtle rolled her eyes. "About him taking off for the summer? Yeah. How lame is that?"

"Yeah, boys are dumb," Joan agreed, also rolling her eyes.

"And I'm sure," Turtle said, shaking her head, "that he's going to come back with some story about how he was on Letterman or this or that and blah blah blah."

"And laugh at us because we got stuck standing out in the rain for a fire drill," Joan added.

"Oh, hey, it's not so bad," Turtle said with a smile. "I mean, umbrellas help!"

"That's true," Joan agreed. "I'll take mine and let you sell more. See you tomorrow!"

"Hee, sure," Turtle chuckled a little. "Thanks, Joan. Stay dry!"
