Leila had come up with a plan on the way back to her room, she had to fix this problem with her brother before they graduated, otherwise he'd grow old and alone in a stuffy old library. How could she travel the globe knowing he was lonely? She couldn't, that was the problem, one she hoped to fix rather quickly... She mewed in frustration when she saw that the hall window was closed, it was rarely ever closed and she couldn't exactly get back into her room unless she used the ledge to get in through her own open window. She could hear voices from the room next door to hers, which must mean that Tai and Melinda were out of class. All it took was a few loud meows and some scratching to get their attention and let into their room. "Lock out again, Leila?" Tai, a girl with pale green skin and leaves for hair, was one of her best friends, and also was the one most accustomed to her walking around as a cat. All she got was a mew in reply as Leila waited near the window, which was promptly opened for her.

The narrow ledge was easy to navigate and her window stood opened enough for her to climb through. Once back in her room she transformed back into her human form, her stomach growling at her. She hadn't eaten enough lunch, so shifting took a lot out of her. Yet she couldn't nap, not yet. She threw on a fluffy, pink robe and sat down at the desk, trying to figure out what exactly to write. She had never had to work so hard to make a new friend, but if she wanted to make sure Luke didn't scare her off, then she needed to be friends with her. Leila groaned and stood up, pacing around her room. Most girls didn't have a room to herself, but after scaring off several roommates, the headmaster gave in and left her alone. After three years the walls were entirely papered with cut out pictures of destinations around the world. Stuff seemed to littered every square inch of the place, things she had collect, bought, or otherwise acquired. How she would move all this stuff out at the end of the year, she did not know.

Before she sat back down to write she polished off two protein bars and a bottle of water, though even full she didn't know how to go about this. Myriam was shy, she was different... she was perfect for Luke, since he basically needed someone the opposite of him. Yet while she knew how to handle Luke, this girl was different. Leaving them alone so soon had been a bad idea, her brother was terrible at conversations and probably weirded her out. It wouldn't be a surprise. What did she knew about her? She liked water, it seemed. Or needed it, either way. She ate outside, so she must prefer to be out there... She was quiet. "Aha!" Leila realized exactly how she would fix it, or at least it would be a start.

Meet me by the back stairwell at midnight! Don't worry, we wont get caught.

The note was written in her usual bubbly style, her name signed with a small heart above the 'i'. Hopefully she would come, most people would not risk being out after curfew but if she came, Leila was sure this would make them friends, then she could continue on with her plan. Fluffy robe and bare feet she hurried down the hall, remembering where Myriam's room was. After slipping the note under the door she all but ran back to her room, not wanting Myriam to find her and try to ruin the surprise, or turn her down. With plan set into motion, it seemed like a good time to take a nap...
