Tammy rolled her eyes at the girl as she was finally left in peace. She hated the school's rumor mill as much as the next person. Almost nothing about her life on this campus was private, and on several occasions, many expected her to have some say over the actions of her companions. This was particularly difficult to do when dealing with Kori, who did what she wanted without answering to anyone. Tammy couldn't even say for sure if there really was nothing between Dark and her friend anymore. She could only go off what she was told.<br/><br/>~~~~~~<br/><br/>At the end of class, Kori packed up her belongings and headed out of class. One of the girls who had been pestering Tammy before stopped her along the way to the cafe, clearly still held up on the Dark story.<br/><br/>"Hey, Kori. You've got any say on the whole thing about you and you know, that freak?" the shorter brunette asked. "There's just some sort of bad energy about her, right? Aren't you worried it will rub off on you?"<br/><br/>Kori wheeled around to look at the girl, annoyance visible in her fake smile. "If you're so curious about this whole thing, why don't you go ask her? Or what you're too scared her 'bad energy' will rub off on you? Just get lost, will ya?" Unlike Tammy, Kori had a lot less patience for the nonsense. This saved her a lot of trouble as she attracted far less attention than the rest of her clique. "Okay, no need to bite my head off. I don't even know why you're so offended." the girl replied, as she saw it wiser to leave the girl alone.<br/><br/>While Kori went straight to the cafe, Tammy had gone to meet up with other friends. That was good for her since it meant she'd have a lot fewer questions to answer. After quickly grabbing a water and two apples, she was out of the room and on her way to the gym. By the time she got there, Dark was already waiting by the locked door.<br/><br/>"Dark, you're early." Kori exclaimed. "No trip to the cafe for you?" She pulled a set of keys from a pocket in her bag and unlocked the door.<br/><br/>"Come on in," she invited as she entered.
