Northern Light Academy (Accepting)

Florenza looked around - she was becoming overwhelmed with concern. For a moment, she slipped into a daze, taking a special notice of the cool breeze that blew her brown hair gently behind her shoulders. It smelt of freshly cut grass, causing her to feel a sense of nostalgia stemming from her childhood. Suddenly, she began to relax. Her muscles relaxed, her shoulders lowered, her teeth unclenched. Turning to Leon, she looked at him intently. He was eager to help Florenza, which she took a special appreciation in. She felt a little less in the dark at her new home, which in turn made her feel more comfortable.
Although Florenza was content with Leon's efforts, she was uncapable of determining how he felt about the issue. Was he troubled? Was he excited? Or was he just simply offering a nice gesture? Despite the unknown, she remained optimistic. "Yes. I think it is inside purse," she told the boy, beginning to unzip her clutch. Just as she was about to reach inside for the flight information, she stopped and examined the pair.
"I am sorry. I must have..." she began, searching for the English word interrupted, "Um, you two must have been doing something before me. I hope I am okay," she said, becoming increasingly timid as she reached the end of her sentence.

Leon Wong

Leon internally sighed, knowing that it would be quite rude if he just left the two other students to get his phone. He would have to make due with remembering the information, which was not hard but no particularly reliable. Noticing that the foreign girl was talking, the boy became more aware of the situation again.

"We weren't doing anything necessarily important. The two of us were grabbing a bite to eat. I'm sure that this won't cause too much trouble for us." Leon said casually, though he would be lying if he said that he wasn't that hungry. He didn't know about Rick's opinion, though from what he could tell Leon assumed that he wouldn't mind if she joined the two of them.

Leon also made a silent agreement to himself that he would try to help Florence with her English; it would be quite important, as classes started the next day. The young man hoped that she had at least one class with either Rick or himself for her own sake.

Leon described that him and Rick were headed off to get a meal from the campus' cafeteria. Florenza's eyebrows raised apologetically, as she instantly proclaimed, "I am very sorry Leon and Rick! It is okay. I can wait. You may eat." She smiled at the pair to let them recognize her reassurance. Florenza was going to take the most of what she was able to get, and so she did not mind setting off the locating of her possessions for some time. She did not want to intrude upon their hunger. After all, already becoming acquainted with two individuals was more than she expected of her day. And for the sake of her past self in Italy, she was happy to be in the company of boys. Getting along with males had never proven difficult for her before; it was familiar territory.

Maverick

Maverick casually listened the conversation, not saying anything until he was needed to. "There is an office close by where there are people who help with issues like this. It's not uncommon," Maverick stated. "I'll take you there but let me grab my lunch first."

Maverick studied the girl, quickly thinking. He realised that he still had some of his ex-girlfriend's clothing at the bottom of his suitcase from their last trip, and decided to put it to good use. "I have some clothes that might fit until you get it back." Maverick then casually added, "don't worry, it is female clothing, not mine." Rick winked at the end of the sentence.

Pleased with how the situation was going so far, Leon leaned back on his heels, his arms still crossed. "Then I think that settles it." The Asian boy stated. He had not expected to meet and get along with anyone the first day; especially with him choosing a lone room. He had to say that he was pleased with how the day was going so far though. The 16-year-old didn't know how 'interesting' it would be, with the exception of moving into an academy that is.

Looking between his two companions, Leon asked, "So the two of us will meet up with you after we eat?" The boy continuing to shift his gaze from the two people, though it was more directed at Florence because the question was aimed at her.

Florenza's head turned when she heard the blonde boy speak. His voice travelled through her ears so smoothly like a ballad, causing her to relax. With his soothing voice, she felt as though the situation was handled, although it could be far from it. Not paying much attention to his actual statement, all she was able to comprehend was that he would take her somewhere after lunch. She tilted her head innocently to the right with a light smile. "Grazie."
After she spoke, Rick began to tell her of some female clothes he had in his possession. Her light smile faded and her eyebrows began to furrow. How does he have female clothes? This is weird... she thought to herself in Italian, clearly perplexed. Who is this guy? He shot a wink her way, but Florenza was still decently confused. She decided it probably didn't say much about his character, shaking it off. Once again, she smiled her charming smile.
Her gaze now directed at Leon, she nodded in agreement. "Yes. I like that," she told him, not fully understanding what he said, but assuming they would soon return. Unsure of what to do in the time being, she started to look around for more loose cash blowing in the breeze.

Leon Wong

Seeing the girl turn and start to look around for something, Leon looked between Rick and Florence a few times before looking back at the cafeteria. Shooting the blonde boy next to him a questioning look, the dark-haired boy raised his eyebrows.

Female clothing? Why would Rick have those? Leon went through reasons that the other man could have another gender's clothes in his possession in his head. He supposed that they could have gotten in there by accident, or possibly were a sibling's garbs. They had to be someone else's; from the short amount of time Leon had spent with Rick, he quickly discarded the idea that the teenager had gotten them for himself. The Asian man decided that he might bring the topic up again, but not at the moment.

Feeling a sharp pain in his stomach, Leon took a small step in the direction of the food court before recalling that Rick was getting food too. Trying to hide the fact that he had thought to go ahead alone out of habit, he swiftly turned his foot so he was facing the other two students. "Ready?" He asked, his hazel gaze alert after the mental incident.

Now content with the hopeful future course of events that were to be carried out, Florenza gracefully put one foot directly in front of the other, her chin tucked to her neck to provide sight of her footsteps. She was deep in thought, creating ideal situations in her head about her potential life as a student at the academy. On the journey over, all that consumed her imagination was the horrors of a different country and the culture shock that would soon ensue. While her day of arrival had not gone completely smooth, she began to gain hope, becoming more optimistic of the upcoming year.
Expectantly, Leon would provide Florenza with help to further her English vocabulary. She was more than thankful she was not the only foreign student coming from a different country, which was her original thought. And from what she was able to understand through their conversations, he knew much about conversational English. His comprehension of the difficult language was the exact aid she was searching for - the exact aid to help her to blend in.
And Rick. Florenza was not able to form an image of the strikingly attractive young male in her head, for to her, he was a mystery. The blonde boy seems unpredictable to her, and she can't quite figure out who he may be quite yet. But when she began to think of his soft eyes, his wink, the wave in his hair, she blinked.
Coming out of her daze, she looked up. She realized she was smiling, but when she scanned her surroundings, she didn't notice anyone who may have seen. Looking ahead, she saw was must have been the main building of the academy.

Maverick's face tinted pink with how he worded the sentence, but chose not to mention anything. Neither of the two in front knew his story, and he definitely did not plan to share it with strangers. Rick turned to Leon, "yes, let's go eat."

Rick ran a hand through his hair, making a note of how he should have a shower later if he continued to do that: because god forbid if he got his hair greasy.

Maverick admired the girl walking away from him. Maverick smirked slightly, he definitely had not thought of being with someone foreign. He had only ever been around the locals. Rich locals, at that. Maverick thought about the idea then remembered that he did not do dating, not properly.

Florenza walked up to the main building on campus. There was a sign, but she could not tell what it said. However, she was not too fazed by it. She sat down on the grass, which wasn't as well-kept as her gardener kept hers in Italy, but she felt a bit more at home with it. Her back leaned uncomfortably against the sign, while her eyes gazed around. The sky was a particular blue that day, with only short wisps of white clouds slowly drifting by. The breeze blew past her, just barely grazing the cold tip of her nose. Her eyes shut.
She remembered the blonde boy, and in fact, she could not get him off her mind. Hardly did she know him, but he struck her different than anyone else she had come in contact with in this foreign country. An interesting character she presumed. Perhaps she was particularly interested in him due to his nativity to this country - she assumed he was a native at least. Obviously, her previous experience with males was purely Italian-based. Due to the culture there, they all had a common thread in their personalities. But that is not the case with the blonde. He was unique, different, a mystery. Although, she could not find a common thread between him and any other native she had met so far.
Thinking about the boy, Florenza ended up being lulled to sleep, her back still resting in an uncomfortable twist.
