Naturally, Carmen and I discussed our plan in the dormitory, while other girls were figuring out what to wear.

''But it's really pretty, come on.'' she replied and waved them in Nora's face.

Finally, sixteen other people came down the Grand staircase and I bopped my head to see if Oliver was coming too. He definitely was and I could hear his voice from below. It didn't seem like he was sad about us at all as he walked down the stairs, laughing with Leroy Moss.
