Fourth Floor Common Room | Evening | 8/30

[onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com]

Hayley hadn't slept much since her arrival. She'd wandered back into her room after visiting the common room at the wee hours of the morning, but hadn't had anything truly restful. Even tired, though, she seemed happy and cheerful. Just ignore the bags under her eyes. She sat on a couch, her legs curled up under herself. She flipped through the channels, not staying on anything for too long. She was just in awe of it all. The colors, the shows, the clothes, the music.

This was the future for Hayley Fitzpatrick. It was awe-striking, wonderful, and terrifying.

Though deep down, she just wished she could relax enough to sleep.

"Well, you did say without clothes," Hayley said. "You still had about half when I saw you."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

She was right and he nodded his agreement. "Well, unfortunately, I can't go completely naked because I think that would be against the rules. These common rooms have cameras."

"So they will try to lock ya up, then," Hayley said. She giggled.

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"For all the way naked?" He considered that. "Maybe not lock you up but I'm sure Principal Winchester might lecture you."

[onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com]

"Wow," Hayley said. "I think I'm likin' this school better and better."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"And before I take anything off, I should introduce myself," he said and held out a hand. "Hannibal King."

[onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com]

"Hayley Fitzpatrick," she introduced, shaking his hand. "I'm new."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"I guessed that since I didn't recognize you," he said. "You on this floor?"

[onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com]

Hayley nodded. "I'm in 406," she said. "Honest to goodness."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"Not too far from me, then," he said. "I'm down in room 403. Get stuck with a good roommate?"

[onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com]

"I g-guess," Hayley said, stuttering a moment. "She seems nice, really."

Hayley was still scared of her roommate, actually.

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

He frowned briefly at that stutter and asked, "Whose your roommate?" Curiosity, of course.

[onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com]

"Rebakah?" Hayley said. "She's a guard. Or... she was a guard. She has a cat."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

He didn't recognize the name which meant it was someone he hadn't meant. "Guard as in...military?"

[onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com]

"Or, like, police I think," Hayley said. She involuntarily shuddered.

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

He frowned again, now finding himself curious about why cops made her shudder. "Did you ask her?"

[onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com]

"Ask her what?" Hayley said. She wasn't the brightest girl, sadly.

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"If she's a cop," he clarified. "Did you ask?"

[onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com]

"Oh, she made it kinda clear," Hayley said. "But she said she wasn't one here, but... yeah. Never know if you can trust 'em."

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"And you're not a fan of cops?" he deduced. "If she's a cop from another world, she's probably not here to cause trouble."

[onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com]

"They're the ones that sent me here," Hayley admitted.

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"But she's not the same," he guessed. "She doesn't know you."

[onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com]

Hayley nodded. "I guess you're probably right," she said. She was still scared of her. It'd take more than a cute boy telling her it'd be fine.

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"I think you'll be fine," he said, trying to sound reassuring. "There's a lot of people like that here, people from different military units and police forces. It takes some getting used to."

[onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com]

Hayley's eyes bugged. "No wonder they sent me here," she said. That really wasn't reassuring to her at all.
