Megan walked into the Library she wanted to glance around before the time came when she would actually have to use this palce for studying. She loved to read so it would not be much of a deal to her. She browsed the shelfs not really looking for anything at all.

Blake was walking through the library, but she was not looking for a book or a quiet place to do homework. She was walking with her skateboard under her arm (giving the library an ounce of respect), looking for the back door that would lead her straight into the field that led to the skatepark. She went down an aisle and bumped into Megan, a girl she had met a few times, in the lounge and hallways.
"Hey Megan!" Blake said, in a voice too loud the library. The librarian gave her one of those 'librarian looks' that made Blake want to laugh. Giving the librarian a 'sweet' smile, she took off her baseball hat that she had been given by one of the boys at the orphanage who was like her big brother. Blake knew that this was not what the librarian wanted, but she settled for that. She looked back down at the book that she was practically raping, looking for any imperfections that the student that had previously taken it out had made. "What brings you to this area?"

Megan looked up when she heard her name. She seen a girl that she meet the other day. She thought her name might of been Blake. "I'm doing great." she replied in a hushed voice she did not want to get kicked out of the only place that she found refuge in. "I'm just looking for a book that I can read. You know the dorms are kinda of lonely with only me in them. Hopefully more girls will come and they could be put in my dorm." she smiled. "Looks like your going skatebording. Sounds fun.. I love to skateboard."

Blake laughed at Megan speaking in her 'inside voice'. Then she took register of what she had said. "You're the only one in your dorm? That's insane!" Blake really was surprised that she was alone. "Well that would kind of suck, I mean, it would be extremely agonizing to be alone in some weird room that you've never been in before...I don't even know what I would to. And I guess it doesn't help that I would sleep in every morning since Ginevra is my human alarm clock!" Blake continued in her normal voice, not bothering to quiet down. "By the way - I'm Blake, I'm in Dorm One, so I'll probably see you around, we're neighbours! And don't worry, you'll definitely get more girls in your dorm, not everyone's here yet!"
Well, apparently I have a lot to say today, she thought to herself. She paused for a moment to let Megan talk for a bit.

"I hope so." she said, glancing at the librarian. She was giving them the evil eye. "It is a bit differnt being in a dorm by myself. At my other school in London we had like 8 or 9 girls just in one dorm. It was crazy packed." she glanced down at the book in her hand then remembered she did not even tell her name to Blake. "I'm Megan by the way. Dorm 2."

Blake was surprised to learn that anyone would put 8 or 9 girls in the same dorm room. For one thing, if she knew anything about how girls act while together, that room would be crazy loud. She decided quickly to voice something about that. "How did you guys manage in a room when there were 9 or you in it? That is wicked crazy...here we only have 4 and it's already pretty packed!"
She suddenly remembered about Megan saying that she was from London. "Hey!" she blurted out, just as suddenly as her remembrance. "You're from London too? I was sent here because my orphanage was too packed, I think...Even though they told me it was because I was going to get a 'quality education..."

"It was a bigger school" she said not sure if she wanted to get into it. "The rooms them self had two rooms into one." she glanced at her to make sure she was not confused. "It was not as packed at you would think but it was still really crazy.. Lots of drama and uncalled for things." she then looked away when Blake said she was in an orphanage in London. "Iam from London. my family was very popular."

Savanna was reading a book at a nearby table when she heard Megans voice talking about london. She closed the book losing interest and stood up. She yanked on her big beaded necklaces hanging around her neck. She loved them she had all sorts of cool colors to match all her clothes. She made her way around a shelf of books and spotted Megan talking to a young girl. Savanna decided to introduce herself. " Hey there i dont believe I have met you yet, My name is Savanna Raye, Im dorming with Megan." she explained. Savanna didnt want to seem like some strange new kid randomly introducing herself in libraries.

"Oh, Hey Savanna." she said and Smiled "how have you been." she said, glancing back down at the book in her hands. she was really itching to read it it was supposed to be a very good book and she could not wait to read it. she glanced back up at the librarian again who was giving them an even more of a dirty look. she laughed to herself at the look on her face.

Savanna smiled."Hey Megan im pretty good, just been reading.what book you got there? Im having trouble finding a really good one." She asked. Savanna looked around hoping a book would catch her eye as she fiddled with her bead necklaces again. It had definately become a habit. "That librarian is such an old hag"Savanna joked."everyone knows libraries arent quiet anymore." Savanna laughed noticing Megan's laughter.The librarian looked so hideous and creepy as she continued with her dirty looks, she was far too busy checking out books to do much else. This too, made Savanna laugh harder, which pissed off the librarian even more " i think we really mad her mad"Savanna stated, the librarian was now bright red and shaking her finger at her.

"It's called The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. It's supposed to be a good book. I'm excited to read it." she said, looking back up at the librarian. "You know maybe we should go take a seat and she would not be turning so red." she smiled, but really she did not want to get into trouble because this was the only place she could come that she would feel at home in besides when she played her guitar and sung.

Blake had said hello to Savanna when she approached her and Megan. "I'm Blake, nice to meet you!" That was how she was always taught to introduce herself. This time, though, she managed to do it without an unpleasant drone, but not as if she didn't want to introduce herself to Savanna. She took Megan's advice - even though she definitely didn't want to - and sat down at the nearest empty table.
"So what were you reading?" Blake asked Savanna once she was sitting, forgetting all about her attempts to go skateboarding. It didn't matter, it was better that she was with people she knew. Blake had decided against mentioning anything more about Megan's past in her United States school, sensing a hint of discomfort. She placed her hat back on her head, waiting for Savanna's reply.

Savanna looked up from her book as she heard a voice addressing her and what she was reading. "hey there Blake, I was just reading Twilight." Savanna said informingly. She brushed her hair out of her eyes and smiled at Blake."what brings you to the library?"Savanna asked noticing a skateboard leaning against the table. Hmm savanna thought skateboarding off the librarians desk, would be pretty funny, the librarian would be so pissed. Leave that for Alex though, when his wounds healed. she smiled randomly at the random thought easing its way through her mind. " or were you just stopping in to say hi?" she added.

Twilight? Wasn't that the book that Ginevra obsessively talked about and read? Yeah, the cover looked the same as the one that was constantely perched on Ginevra's bedside table. "Oh, that's cool, yeah, I know Twilight, my roommate's read it!" she told Savanna. "Oh, no, I only come here to use the back door. It lead right out back to the park near the skatepark. It's a nice little short-cut!" she explained, holding up her board. "Then I saw Megan and stopped to say hi! But, now that you mention it, I should be off...I don't really feel right being in here...I'm getting the chills," she joked. Winking, she said, "Kidding! See you guys!" She got on her skateboard and skated across the library, even though the librarian was looking daggers at her. She waved at the librarian and continued through the library, knocking down a few of the books with her outstretched hands.
