Okay, rush out after them. (Skip historical sexy stuff and follow Lexi)

Rats! You're too nervous! Okay, you jump up from your chair and dash out of your row to follow them. In your speed to catch up, you're not very stealthy, and you nearly trip over a couple of times. But you make it! And that's what counts.

{if@ Speed < 6}Huffing and puffing as you at last catch{else}Catching{endif} up to where the two of them are walking through the empty hallways outside of the theatre, you gently slap your hand against Lexi's back.

"Oh, didn'cha like the first lecture either?"

"Either?"

"So Lexi!" Cameron blurts out. "What are we out here for?"

"Well, I'm out here for a big secret!" Her smile widens and she waves jazz hands as she says those last two words. "And you two are out here for me!"

H-hey! Well, true, but still, that's a little bit embarrassing.

Lexi turns and walks down the hallway, continuing to talk as she does so, you and Cameron keeping pace behind her. "If you guys want to hang, that's cool. Everyone but the principal's in that theatre, so we've got the entire school to ourselves. Pretty much."

"Like a playground!"

Lexi stops walking and looks back at you, eyebrow raised above her smiling visage. "Yeah. Like a playground." She starts walking again. "We can run in the halls, be super loud, it'll be a blast. But when we get to my thing, you dudes are gonna wait outside -- then we can hang out again once I'm done. All cool?"

You don't actually hear the last part, you're too busy running up and down the halls until you're puffed out. It takes a little while! You run your hand across the walls as you run, playing a little game where you have to take it off just before each of the posters, windows, and paintings, then put it straight back just after them, as quickly as you can. You do a mediocre job.

Once you've finally used up a bunch of your energy reserves -- sitting down all day sucks -- you walk slowly back to where Cameron and Lexi are standing, dragging your feet a little in a sly attempt to get a piggy back. No cigar. Once the foolhardiness of your plan is revealed, you walk normally again up to them.

"Alright, this is me!" Lexi smiles. "I shouldn't be too long. Sorry for getting you guys out of the lecture for this."

"It's okay!"

Cameron just kind of nods.

"Cool. You dudes are the best." Lexi looks down at her baggy pyjama pants and gives a brief pout.{if@ LectureListen 1 == True} "Well, thanks for the hair fix Cam. Leans me at least a bit closer towards being properly dressed for this."

With a yawn,{else} She reaches up and pats at her poofy hair. The pout returns.

With a sigh,{endif} Lexi stretches her arms, smacks her lips, and walks through the door, leaving you and Cameron standing outside. You haven't been here quite long enough to know what it leads to. About a minute passes of standing out here.

"Sooo...." You break the silence, swinging your arms by your side. You roll your lips back and forward for a few seconds. "Wanna head in?" You suggest with a bright smile.

As it turns out, Cameron does not want to head in. He says that it would be a complete and total breach of Lexi's trust, and incredibly unfair of the two of you to do. She gave you specific instructions, and she said that she won't be long, so you should just wait here for however few minutes it takes her to be done. You really shouldn't pry into her business, especially not when she's asked you not to. The three of you can have fun when she's out again, you two only came out here to make sure she was alright -- maybe you can even sneak back in and catch the rest of the lecture. But go in after her? No way, Jose. Not happening. It will not happen.
