I13 DT - Library - Research

[Haley Crusek]

Haley sat in a comfortable chair in the library with the book she’d taken from the Maldon library propped up on her knees. She had a small tablet with her as well, and she occasionally tapped out a few notes, and did some searching of the school’s databases.

My god, was she actually doing homework?
((open))

[Kayla Turnbull]

One stack over, there was a muffled sound of twittering and giggling.. A group of girls were present, glancing Haley's way occasionally, feigning studying the next.

[Haley Crusek]

Haley ignored them for a while, but eventually looked up at the girls when she felt their gazes upon her for the third or fourth time, a "what the fuck do you want" look on her face.

[Kayla Turnbull]

The lead girl just laughed, then turned back to her book, glancing and chittering.

[Haley Crusek]

Bitch she thought to herself, looking back down at her book, too quietly to be heard by the rest of the non-telepaths in the room, but not nearly well shielded enough to prevent Kayla from hearing it.

[Kayla Turnbull]

The other girls didn't seem to hear, but the leader put her fingers to her mouth in mock shock.

shhhh. No talking in the library. Don't be rude.

[Haley Crusek]

Then tell your friends to shut the fuck up. Who the hell are you anyway?

[Kayla Turnbull]

oh, grow up. We're just having a little fun. What are you, a baby?

[Haley Crusek]

Haley visibly bristled. No, I'm not. I'm just trying to read this stupid book for a...project so my teachers will get off my fuckin' back.

[Kayla Turnbull]

The girl rolled her eyes, obviously not caring in the least.

well, you have fun with that. And if you need the number for someone to fix your haircut, I'd be happy to help you out.

With a smirk, she gathered her clique, and headed to the exit.

[Haley Crusek]

Bitch please, I've seen grandmothers with more style than you.

[Kayla Turnbull]

The girl responded with a dismissive wave and smirk, and was gone.
