"Please, please, please tell me he calls you Miss Whitmore all day long in that really annoying, condescending tone of his."
Veronica looked up from the compact mirror in her hand to the couch that her roommate was currently sprawled over, knitted afghan pulled up to her nose. The other woman still wore sweats and a messy bun, clearly content on skipping classes like most everyone else. "I don't think he sounds condescending," she replied, not answering the question and turning her attention back to the winged eyeliner she was trying to perfect.
"Of course you don’t," Melanie was content to continue on whether or not Veronica chose to listen. "You're practically in love with him. You wouldn't notice it."
Veronica snapped the compact shut and started scooping make-up back into her bag, glaring a warning in her company's direction. "I am not in love with him," she defends, and Melanie only cackled from beneath her blankets. "Then you certainly went out of your way to look like the opposite of a TA for nothing." Veronica could practically sense Melanie eyeing her high-waisted shorts. As if they were the most not-TA-like thing about her appearance.
She focused on tying the laces to her heavy combat boots. "This is how I always look. Besides, Professor Bell's classroom is hot, and I am not wearing layers. He doesn't mind."
Another snorting cackle, and Veronica flinched at the sound of it, because it was not at all pleasant. "Why would he mind? You look like a rockabilly wet dream. He probably loved that shit." She adjusted her positioning on the couch. "Cause he's a cute, wittle, baby vampire," she added in a cooing tone, because she was on the team that thought Professor Bell was young (with no real evidence to back them). The only other sides were those who thought he was ancient (but only because he taught weird history) and those who didn't want to get involved (this was Veronica's group).
Standing quickly she tapped the toe of her boot on the floor to adjust the fit. "I'm leaving," she announced, not bothering to indulge the outrageous comments of her friend; half-way to the door.
"Don't forget your papers."
"I have them."
"Don't forget your coffee."
"I have… oh, wait. Thanks."
Veronica could still hear Melanie's sassy mmm-hmm of a response as she closed the door.
Checking her watch as she descended the stairs into the basement, a disgruntled noise sounded off in her throat. For the benefit of no one, but herself. She wasn't late, but she wasn't exactly early either. She preferred to be early and the strap of her bag was digging into her shoulder and she couldn't adjust it because her hands were full of coffee and test papers. It was all very annoying.
She was pleased that there was anyone around to witness the awkward way she attempted to open the door with her lack of hands. Pushing it open with her hip, she fumbled for the light switch with her elbow. Dull fluorescent light filled the room, and she yelped in surprise at the sight of someone else in the classroom.
Not someone. Obviously, it was Professor Bell, and you really think she'd be used to this by now. Certainly not the first time she'd found him working in the dark.
Leaning against the door she composed herself quickly, because she could only hope he'd not heard her ridiculous, childish shrieking through his headphones. When the pace of her heart stopped over-reacting she crossed the room to unload her papers on his desk.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
