With her books held tightly to her chest and her hair in its usual loose braid Rosalie smiled to herself as she entered the history classroom; a decent night’s sleep had worked perfectly and the dark bags under her eyes had reduced significantly – go her. Her dream itself had been dreamless nothing beautiful white static but Rosalie found it a blessing considering her usual slumber was plagued with vicious nightmares of horrible ghosts and a cacophony of their dreadful cries.
Following the flock of students into the classroom she picked her seat – a desk by the window that overlooked the grounds, the perfect place to daydream out of in the midst of boring lecture. At least this lesson would be sort of fun, the Greeks were kind of cool, she loved the mythology and she’d spent most of last night reading up on Persephone and Hecate – her decided favourites. She’d also came to energy drink fuelled conclusion – after bouncing the idea with her roommate- that Aphrodite was a clear feminist icon and should be appreciated more instead of the blatant slut shaming she was usually described with. After all being forced to marry someone against your will sounded because you were hot – well that sounded awful no wonder the poor Goddess had so many affairs.
Taking the window seat she settled down and waited for the class to begin. Zoning in and out as the teacher mentioned something about pre assigned partners. Well there went the freedom of choice. As the teacher read the names she searched for her partner – Xavier Kingdon. That was a new name, even amongst the newbies like herself – blinking softly her curious gaze landed on a tall boy who she offered a friendly smile to.
