Well, anyway, the bell rings pretty soon after that.

Before Nurse Riley can recover from her leg-shaking orgasm and stand back up from behind the desk, the final bell rings. Which means class, the day, and the week are over now!

Your classmates are all a little bit..... preoccupied with staring over at the front desk in shock as you start to happily pack up your things into your backpack. Occasional small noises creep their way up from behind the desk and out into the space. But you don't really mind! With your books and pencils stuffed into your bag, you hoist it up over your shoulder with a smile and give your classmates a little goodbye wave as you head out towards the door and Miranda gets up to go check on Nurse Riley. Cool!

You're planning to head up to your room, so you can pack away the rest of the stuff you want to bring home with you, but right as you leave the door you bump into a group of eight girls waiting outside. At the front of the group is Talia, that girl with the short crop of white hair, arms crossed and smiling happily down at you.

"Well, you barely made it in time, but you did still make it." She snaps her fingers, and two of the girls step inside of the classroom. Talia walks a short way down the hall, wagging her finger at you to follow, just before the two girls usher the rest of your classmates out from the classroom with barely-packed, still-unzipped bags and close the door.

As you're looking over at your confused classmates, double checking their stuff, talking with each other, and hoisting backpack straps over shoulders, Talia brings your attention back to her with an ahem. As you turn back, now a fair distance from the classroom and the rest of your class, the other girls still behind Talia beam eagerly and happily back at you. You can't help but smile yourself, seeing so many happy people!

"Congratulations then, Debbie. You're one of us now. You did a very good job, I'm sure you'll fit right in in no time -- I'm pleased to have you aboard. Welcome to the Argent Sorority."

There's a few minor woops and cheers, but what they lack in volume and number they make up for in effort! Your smile grows even wider as you're showered in praise by all of these new friends you just made. Everything hard about today seems really worth it now! Talia introduces you to the other girls, but you forget all of their names pretty instantly (except for Penelope but that's only because she was eating a cookie when you met last time), and then basically tells you to head home and enjoy the weekend. Next week, she says, they'll be out in the Courtyard ready for you to rock up at any time. Awesome!

You give a smile and wave to your new besties (without letting on that you don't know any of their names), and then awkwardly leave the situation and head over to your shared room to pack.
