Ella was late for class. She was having an extremely off day. Everything was going wrong and it was just going downhill from there. She had woken up late and didn't have time for breakfast. She discovered there was a large tear in her skirt, but luckily that was fixable. She made it to her first class on time, but had left all her books and papers in her dorm. This included the HUGE essay that was due at the beginning of class. No excuses. " This is amazing. What an amazing day." Ella grumbled sarcastically under her breath. She adjusted her bag on her shoulder, having sprinted to the dorm at top speeds to gather her books and papers together. So she had her things now, but she was late.
Ella suddenly heard a rip and before she could stop it from happening, the seam of her black My Chemical Romance messanger bag had split. Papers flew down the hallway, books crashed to the floor, and a few ink bottles spilled creating a dark puddle. Ella just stood there for a moment, eyes wide. This could not be happening. She dropped to the floor, but instead of gathering her things, she sat there and tried getting herself together. " This is it. I'm not going to class. I'm going back to bed." She mumbled, running a hand through her blonde hair. She succeeded in getting her books into a small pile but that was it. As for everything else, she had no ambition to clean up.

Acelin strolled slowly around the corner, late for class, and noticed there was a book lying on the floor. She picked it up the book and juggled it between her hands. "How odd," she thought but continued walking. It wasn't two steps when she came across a piece of paper. She crouched down beside it before she reached to pick it up when she noticed the whole corridor was strewn with papers and books.
She also noticed a Puff sitting beside a dishevel pile of books. Acelin walked towards her, picking up the papers as she went, and joined her on the floor. "A cold spot for such a nice day," she said, smiling happily, adding everything she collected to the already formed pile. "But now why are you sitting here?" she asked, her heavy Irish accent coming through strongly, "do you also have a class to get to?"

Ella let out another heavy sigh, running a hand frustratedly through her blonde hair. " Stupid books." She mumbled, beginning to gather her papers into a neat pile. She heard footsteps heading towards her and glanced up to see a red-headed girl gathering up Ella's papers and books that had spread far down the hall. Ella felt her cheeks tinge pink, just a bit embarassed at her misfortune. She looked down at her pile and continued trying to clean up her mess.
She glanced up when the girl spoke to her." What?" She asked, sounding distracted. " Oh, yes...I know. Just having a bad day." She explained, giving the girl a shy smile. " And I did have a class to go to...I don't think I'm going anymore. I just need to go back to bed or something." Ella sighed. " Thank you, though. For picking up my things." She said, giving the girl a thankful smile. " I'm Ella."

Acelin grinned cheerfully at Ella. "Hi Ella," she said, her accent ringing clear, "I'm Acelin but you can call me Ace." She held her crossed legs by the ankles and rocked back and forth distractedly. "Bed?" she asked, "so soon? Aw!" She frowned and put on her puppy eyes, quivering her bottom lip. Then she laughed at how silly she was being.
She looked around and saw that all the papers were now between them and she noticed the broken bag. How does she fit everything in there? she asked herself, smiling at the bag. "Nice bag, by the way," she said, "pity about the break though." She looked back to the girl. "You look so sad," she said frowning because she felt bad for the girl. "You need some comfort food, ice cream. Yes. To the kitchens!" She jumped to her feet and grabbed Ella's hand and tried to pull her up. "Come on," she said excitedly, "let's go!"

Ella smiled back at the girl. " Hi Ace. I like your name. It's sweeet." She said, drawing out the last word. She finished gathering up her things into a neat pile. Ella then remembered her bag was broken. Well that was problem. She bit her lower lip, contemplating what to do now. Ella looked up at Ace before laughing. " Maybe. If it means that this bad day will be over, I'll go right back to bed. " She giggled.
An idea suddenly dawned her and she wondered how she hadn't thought of it before. Ella rummaged through her bag for her wand. Once she had found it, she turned the end towards the tear in her messanger bag and muttered a repair spell. In less than a second, the rip had mended and her bag was as good as new. " There we go." She said happily, shoving her things back inside. She decided to carry the heavier book though. She didn't need her bah ripping again.
" Comfort food?" Ella asked, another giggle escaping her lips. Ace's good mood seemed to be contagious. Or at least Ella hoped it was. She felt Ace tugging on her arm and stood up. " To the kitchen it is then! Lead the way!" Ella said with a smile.

Acelin smacked her forehead when Ella pulled out her wand. "Of course!" she said, "how silly can we be?" It was a rhetorical question and it still made Ace laugh.
She heaved the girl to her feet and jumped up and down for joy, clapping her hands together. "Yays!" she cried, 'to the kitchen!" She giggled, and turned down the corridor. She knew every conceivable way to the kitchen. Since Rus and Alexis had talked her into eating more, Ace had had more reason to know how to get to the kitchen.
“So what do you have to comfort you?” she asked, smiling her dazzling smile around.
