BWI Portalocity Terminal [Saturday Morning]

Rather than fly from Philadelphia to Baltimore, Eric's parents had given him a lift. They had offered to drive him directly to the school, but he told them he would rather meet the group at the airport and take the shuttle. That way he'd get an early glimpse at all the hot girls he was sure would be going to his new school.

So now he was relaxing in the lounge, drinking a soda and waiting. It wasn't going to college, but it would do.

"Twice," Kennedy said nonchalantly--again, mostly an act. "Just last week, at the last school. People are a little too uptight about things sometimes, you know?"

"You broke rules, then?" he asked, sounding redundant to even his own ears but three years ago, he'd been given the power to break rules and, even so, it was still so foreign to him. "Dismissal sounds harsh."

"I broke some guy's nose." Kennedy shrugged. "Someone thought that wasn't cool."

Well, it hadn't been.

Jonas rubbed his nose, glad to not have experienced that particular painful memory. He'd run into doors before, smacking his nose hard enough to bring tears to his eyes but he'd never broken it.

"Why did you do that?" he asked, unable to help himself. "Isn't violence frowned upon?"

At least he hadn't asked if it was completely eradicated like in his own Community.

"Funny how that works, isn't it?" Kennedy asked with a little laugh. "Okay, so maybe I got a little carried away, but the guy was a jerk. One day into the semester and he was making girls' lives miserable. He just picked on the wrong person eventually."

She was not at all apologetic about throwing him into the locker. Not at all.

"Why wasn't he punished?" Jonas asked, proving that his middle name should be 'Questions'. "Misbehavior by any gender usually leads to punishment of some kind."

"Maybe he was. I don't know." One side of Kennedy's face scrunched up a bit. "I...sort of didn't stick around long enough to find out."

"Are you planning on breaking anyone's nose here?" Jonas wondered, suddenly fearing for his poor nose. He knew he hadn't done anything, just asked questions, but she still didn't seem like one to be trifled with.

"Hey, I don't go around planning these things!" exclaimed the girl with the giant, lumpy, clinking duffel bag over her shoulder.
