BWI - Portalocity Lounge [Friday Morning]

Chloe got off her flight from New York and followed the signs to the lounge. She dumped the duffle bag of clothes that Andrew had hastily purchased on the floor and slumped into one of the uncomfortable airport chairs.

She was still against this plan but she realized on the flight that sulking wouldn't make it any better so she was going to put on a brave face and make the most of it.

"I know everybody at my old school." They didn't talk to her, mostly, but Tara knew them. Tara finally looked up at Elle. "Were you homeschooled?"

Elle nodded. "For most of grade school, yeah."

"D-did you like it?" Tara asked, curious.

"It was kind of boring," Elle said. "Learning wasn't so bad. Sometimes. But the people my father had tutoring me were... dry. Boring."

Elle shrugged. "Learning wasn't so bad, sometimes, but the rest of the time it was kinda boring."

Plus her tutors had never liked her.

"I g-guess I can see that," Tara conceded. "Nobody to talk to."

Tara would be fine with books and nobody to talk to, but Tara wasn't most people.

"Wouldn't have been so bad if the people tutoring me were actually interesting." Elle wrinkled her nose.

"Oh! I'm Elle, by the way. Elle Bishop."

"Tara Maclay," Tara said, shaking her hair out of her face and holding a hand out for Elle to shake if she wanted. "I'm going to be a sophomore this year."

If she stayed into the school year, which wasn't certain yet.

Elle reached out to shake Tara's hand. "Me too," she said. "How old are you?"
life_inshadow: ([pos] mildly impressed)

"Fifteen," Tara answered. "But I'll be sixteen in October, so I signed up for driver's ed."

"I'm gonna be sixteen soon," Elle said. "Two weeks, pretty much."
