Now, grab a seat over on the left side of the room." Apparently, the young lad didn't want to be apart from her if he was willing to question before the whole class. Ah, the pangs of young love!

"Thank you, Miss Toussaint." He said, giving Celandine a small nod, but not completely attentive to her, one of the team Captains was apparently nervous.

"Jitters, Miss Flores?" He said, calling over her and Cedric to the front of the class with a gesture. "No need to be nervous. You'll both do just fine, I'm sure of it. And even if you don't do perfectly, which I'm sure you will - Uh, do perfectly that is! - It was your first time and always remember that anyone who is an expert in anything was once a beginner."

Kapoor began searching the room as the students were still getting into their seats. He'd knew he'd left it here somewhere. Now, where was it? Where was that blasted GONG!

Aha! Kapoor moved over to the wheeled blackboard and pulled out a large metallic instrument. Once it got it into a painfully obvious place in front of the class, he hit it once creating a small, but very apparent GONG!!!

"Students, I'd like for you to turn your divination books to page 221, we're going to be delving into the Japanese practice of Hana kotoba. For starters, who can tell me what Hana kotoba means?".

"Hana Kotoba?" she repeated. 'Is that a trick question? The Japanese practice of Hana Kotoba...' she thought for a minute before answering. "Does it mean...flower language? Or language of the flower? Something like that..."

Abigail happily picked up her bag and headed to the opposite side of the room from Josh. As she did so she passed Josh’s crush and felt a tad guilty ‘I was trying to embarrass him not her.’ So as she passed she quickly whispered “I’m sorry I really wasn’t trying to embarrass you. Good luck being team leader.” She smiled hoping she was ok as she looked a tad nervous.

Quickly she made her way over to Kay and sat down just as the teacher gonged his gong, making her jump slightly. Turning to Kay she gave a weak smile still a bit embarrassed after everything that had happened, “Hi.”
