(Sorry about the longer posts, but remember it contains the posts for two characters in it.)
Desmond was filtering through some paper work in the student council room. A long grey and black metallic table with several chairs as his work space (they had the Business Club decorate it for them). There was a kettle that whistled in the back room, a kitchen like are that opened into another conference room next door which served as the teachers’ lounge. Each packet that he opened contained all the requests and approval papers for the various school clubs, each page had to be signed and initialed by the principal and two student body officers. “Damn, I knew there was something I forgot to do earlier.” He said, cursing that kettle in the back and wondering if whoever had put it on was ever going to get it off the stove.
Moments later it was removed, and following that a girl with long flowing hair carrying several al ceramic cups on a plate, “Hello again.” She said sweetly.
“Hello to you too.” He responded, taking a cup of tea when offered. He signed several more documents before sighing once more.
“Should I co-sign?” Kalen asked looking over the papers.
“Unfortunately only another officer of the board can sign, which means we need a vice president.”
“That shouldn’t be too hard; whomever was elected last year is currently the vice president until the next elections isn’t she?”
“Ms. Sheals has moved to Europe, and so we’re out of luck there.”
“Have you asked the Principal who he thinks it should be?”
“Yes, and that’s what worries me.” he sighed once more before standing to leave.
A few minutes later he was on his way down the hall to the classroom he had left almost an hour ago. He knocked on the door and entered apologizing to the teacher for interrupting and scanning the room for his target.
