Selene wasn't going to lie - it was a relief when the teacher arrived to break up the fight, and no further incident happened. Selene couldn't help but take the opportunity to talk with Wynona a bit longer.
By the end of the week, they had already made plans to go shopping together on Saturday. The mall was a given, and Selene hoped for the discount store - and she had already asked her mother if perhaps she and Wynona could get a lift to the neighboring, larger city to show her their stores? Up to Wynona of course. But no matter how their shopping went, Selene was looking forward to the weekend.
She was a little more nervous, in fact, about Mr. and Mrs. Porter. When she had received her schedule, she had assumed the final class of the day to be a selection and had even contacted the front office after the carnival to ensure she would get the Art class. They had assured her she would, and it turned out they weren't exactly wrong. It was some combination class. While the Art assignment didn't bother her, the need to learn an instrument did. She had managed to skip over the Band in middle school via Theory of Music and didn't know much about the actual instruments. Some sort of keyboard felt appealing to her, though. Perhaps not practical though. She'd ask later.
And finally the science fair groups. Selene had already begun pondering how
scientific they could get in their volcanoes: able to try different ingredients, for instance, or try to get ahold of chemicals stronger than baking soda and vinegar. It bothered her a bit how the groups were split - she had set her jaw upon realizing Indiana was the same girl who had impugned upon Amelia's day at the carnival, and they were in the same group. Wynona also being a member helped, but perhaps over the weekend she should mention the incident to her? Just to make sure nothing came up. Ezera wasn't paired with Amelia, but at least wasn't paired with Mitzie either. Considering how the first day went down, it was probably for the best. Selene, however, barely knew any of her group. Sadie had correctly guessed her 'lie', and both Sonny and Sadie were involved in the first day's cafeteria drama. That was all Selene really knew about her group, though. Now seemed like a good time to correct that.
She scanned the homeroom's chaos for any of her group members, unattended and not apparently busy with homework. Once her gaze laid on such a person she got out of her chair with her
jacket and made her way over to them.
"Hello! So, I noticed we were both assigned to the same group for the science fair project. I was wondering if you wanted to discuss it a bit?"
