The instant Fiona spotted Dominic in Mystical Lifelore class, her heart leaped. For the first time since she'd been sitting beside him, he acknowledged her arrival with a nod. In response, she gave him her sweetest smile. He didn't react to that and he didn't have to, for the teacher entered a second later. All attention zoned in on the centaur. Another boring lesson that Fiona found completely incomprehensible ensued. She'd finally begun to pick up in other subjects, but not Mystical Lifelore. Mystical Lifelore was a dragon she was having a hard time slaying. Except, possibly, with the help of one person.
At the end of class, she turned to her seatmate. "So... when can you schedule another study session."
Dominic appeared to give the question a second's thought. "Tomorrow. After school."
"Make that two hours after school. I have to check in at the Cloth House every day."
