As Neven left she called over her shoulder with a giggle, leading J back out the way they'd come. "Nice to meet you, Neven" 
Once they made it out of earshot she gave her map another try. This time she found the place with ease, and after saying farewell to J, she quickly made her way down the halls of the apartments until she finally reached hers. "Well, home sweet home" she muttered turning her key in the lock. She took this time to examine the contents of the items found in he[img][/img]r mailbox. Reading over the memo's she noted she needed to find several outfits for the coming events and she wasn't prepared at all. She knew she would have had a dress for tea tomorrow somewhere in the little luggage she'd left in her car, but she was wholly unprepared for the ball and walk. Perhaps she'd ask J to go shopping with her later. She probably hadn't chosen her gowns yet either penelope reasoned...

Penelope checked her phone clock one last time and she knew she'd make it early with plenty of time to spare. She'd fortunately decided to choose her attire the evening before which made dressing a breeze. Giving herself a last once over in the mirror she applied a final coat of lipstick and gave a little smack. "That'll do" she said to herself giving a nod of approval. She had hoped she wouldn't be too informal in her floral blue dress. It hung loosely around her body and stopped just at her knees.

It was still early enough in the afternoon she reasoned, so it ought to do, especially on such short noti- Her thoughts were interrupted by a ringtone she couldn't recognize. Clutching her normal phone and finding it dead silent she remembered they'd issued her one as well. This would be the first time it had rung and she wondered who would be calling her. "Julia maybe?" She knew her name was in the contacts along with everyone else's but it was still rather odd. Digging it from the bottom of her bag she was surprised to see Aarons name flashing across the screen. She was excited nonetheless. He was afterall the first person she'd met at the academy. 

"Hello? Aaron?" She answered softly, gathering her small purse and heading out the door, locking it behind her and shuffling down the hall slowly. "Have you left for tea yet?" she asked scanning each room as she passed them. She wasn't sure which room he was in but figured if she waited they could walk together if he hadn't left yet.
