Snippet #1822253

Rosalinda sighed; with all the weapons hidden, she could finally get Gracie to talk to her properly. She sighed before heading to her computer; while she was away from the school, she had told herself she would instead be taking her classes online, for however long it would take for her and Gracie to finally get along. She didn't really want much...just a chance to talk with her, to make sure she knew she was trying to support her; why else would she put a knife on her the chain bracelet she had slipped into her sisters bag? She logged onto her computer and started looking through the work she had to get done. Nothing much; at least, nothing that she couldn't do within a few hours. She glanced up at a clock, winced slightly, then hurried to start her schoolwork.

If she wanted to be there by the time Gracie got out of school, she'd have to finish everything within a few hours. She was sure she could manage that, if she really worked at it, without breaks unless necessary. She paused, mentally telling herself to relax; she'd never get anything done if she was so worked up. Finally, she went into one of the quizes, failry early, and grinned slightly as she read through the first question, asking the difference between ectothermic and endothermic. Perhaps it wouldn't take so long, after all.
