"Are you ok?" a blonde girl asked Molly after the water had fallen on her head.
"Yes, I'm fine. Really" Molly said, weakly.
"What's your name?" she said, picking some of Molly's baggage up. Molly bent down and picked up her uniform and her papers. "I'm Molly. I need to get to dorm….um…146"
"Oh" she said smiling "That's my dorm. We share it with this other girl named Irene." She started walking down the hallway. Molly followed her at a distance.
"Why was there a bucket of water over the door?"
"Oh. The boys like to play pranks" the girl said smirking. "We usually get them back though"
"Umm…what's your name?" Molly said, shyly.
"Oh, Mary Morstan" she said smiling and shaking Molly's hand.
Molly noticed that Mary was dressed in lose jeans and a sport's t-shirt. She had her blond hair in a messy braid and there was car oil on her hands. She followed Mary to the room when Mary suddenly turned around.
"I've got to warn you about Irene. She's…a bit of an….interesting person."
Molly just shrugged and Mary opened the door. Before Molly said anything she saw a girl with dark brown hair sitting on the bed kissing a boy.
"Oy! We got a new girl here! She didn't need to see this!" Mary yelled.
The boy looked up, startled. He got up and ran out. Irene just sat there calmly. She rolled her eyes at Mary's comment. She seemed to be the exact opposite of Mary. Skinny jeans, a tight shirt showing some skin and her hair in a tight bun with red lipstick on: she was every boy's dream.
"What's her name?" Irene asked, still sitting on the bed, gesturing to Molly.
"Molly" Molly said quietly.
Irene gave Molly a look up and down. Her damp and messy hair, her wet clothes, and her mousy look: she wasn't having a good day. Molly took a long look around the room. It was rather big with three twin bed stuffed into it. There were two to the right of the doorway and the other one was to the left. There were chest of drawers and a lamp by the bed that Molly assumed was her bed. The bed that she assumed was Irene's was made. There wasn't anything on the walls and it looked clean. Mary's, on the other hand, was messy and there were sports posters all over her wall.
"Well, I better go get clean. Where's the bathroom?" Molly asked.
"Down the hall, to the right." Irene said. Molly set her things down and grabs a change of clothes. She walked down the hall.
"So what did you get out of the boy this time?" Mary asked after Molly was gone.
"Math homework" Irene shrugged. Mary sighed, and then had an idea. She grabbed Molly's school papers.
"Look at this" she said to Irene "She's in AP Chemistry and Anatomy. She is in really good classes."
"Do you think she's really, really smart? Like Sherlock?"
"I think she might be but doesn't know how smart she is. It seems like she is so shy and she would just think this is normal."
Irene nodded.
"Do you think we should invite her to come to meet the boys with us?" Mary asked.
"Yes. It would be really nice. She's the new girl. She doesn't really have friends yet. Besides, then there would be three girls and three boys in the group."
Mary nodded and they went silent. They both sat there waiting for Molly to come back. Molly came back into the room to have Irene and Mary stare at her. Molly just stood there, waiting for one of them to talk. She was feeling really uncomfortable with them looking at her.
"So, Molly" Mary started "we are meeting up with three of our friends tonight and wondered if you wanted to come." They both turned to look at Molly.
"Oh. Sure." Molly replied.
"Now" Irene said, smiling "We need to find an outfit for you to wear."
