This was ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous.
"Gaila! I have to get in there!"
"Keep your perfectly pressed panties on! I'll be out in a minute Nyota."
Uhura leaned heavily on the wall next to the bathroom she shared with her inconsiderate roommate. Gaila had been getting on her last nerve recently by breaking all of the rules she had setup upon moving in together. No bringing back men to the room without the other roommates consent had been the first rule to go and it had gone downhill from there.
If Gaila had bothered to study the morning bathroom schedule Uhura had labored over she would realize that she was 8.3 minutes over her allotted time.
Uhura had a very important meeting with Commander Spock in ten minutes (not taking into account the time it would take her to get all the way across campus) and, although he would never be mad at her for something as trivial as being late, she refused to let her roommate make her tardy.
"Gaila!"
The bathroom door opened and the Orion walked out as if the woman that would greet her wasn't going to be furious.
"The bathroom is all yours. Go crazy!"
Deciding not to respond to Gaila's sarcasm, Uhura strode into the bathroom mindful of not inhaling too deeply for fear of overdosing on the cloud of hairspray Galia left behind.
"Better hurry up Nyota! Wouldn't want to keep Commander Spock waiting, now would we?"
Gaila barely dodged the hairbrush.
