Setting an alarm would have most likely been smart on her part because time had a tendency to get away from her. Hogwarts had a thing about electronics and stuff so she didn't know if it would even work, but that sure would be an awesome excuse to use. Airey probably wouldn't let it fly though. She could feel a space rant coming up about responsibilities... the kind of thing that had absolutely nothing to do with space, but he always managed to throw it in anyways. It just so happened that she was right on time so the rant could be avoided. Thank merlin for small miracles.
Wading once more out into the water, the brunette spotted her flag and made way over to it. Feeling around in her pocket, she found a chocolate bar and popped it into her mouth. Before she had gotten very far out, she stepped on something and lost her footing. During the fiasco, she swallowed a large piece of chocolate whole.
Cough. Splutter.
DEATH
Flopping around and trying to breathe at the same time proved to be difficult. This was the end. She was going to die doing homework. This was the worst possible way to go. At the very least it was the chocolate that was going to take her out. Death by chocolate wasn't too bad. It had a certain ring to it. Finally it dislodged and she threw up a smidgen in the lake. There were only a few chunks. No big deal. Totes nothing to see here.
After her near death experience, she finally reached her flag, and grabbed ahold of her ruler. The measurements now read 2 feet and 3 inches. That meant that her measurement was right back to what it was at the end of the first day. Boring. AJ jotted down her notes in the middle of the water. She wasn't always the brightest crayon in the box. Time to go back to her common room and find some more chocolate. What were the odds that she would choke again? No really. What were the odds? She wasn't a Ravenclaw!
