Sighing in defeat, he decided he might as well go to class. It<span style="font-style: italic">was</span>probably the safest place.<br/>So, reluctantly, he made his way down the hall to the classroom.

"Be quiet or get out! Miss Sterling, you've already caused a distraction in the<span style="font-style: italic">five minutes</span>you've been here. I'd think<span style="font-style: italic">you</span>would have a little consideration for the feelings of the other students."
