Anni smiled at the ast friend to join the group, Ryan. Of course, he had to go and try to take off Kaitlin's hat.. And then point out that it was getting warmer. Anni stuc her tongue out at him. "Bugger off! I wear it 'cause I wanna!" She said snootily, sitting up and crossing her arms. Ryan frowned underneath all his hair. "You've worn them since the beginning of sixth grade. You never take them off even at the Dam Beach Party or during PE classes!" Anni turned her head.

"HMPH." She grumbled, putting an end to the conversation. She actually liked her hat, even if it was annoying on the hotter days. It was a pretty orange color today, so today was orange day. Monday's were always orange days. It helped her wake up and be read for the day after two days of staying up super late.

Kaitlin wasn't shocked that the next person to walk into the room was her best friend Anni, hyper as even. She sighed slightly, always wondering what drugs she took to make her like that in the morning. She claimed it was because she slept, but it was unteenager like for her.
With another sigh, Kaitlin blinked up at Anni, waving her over. Ryan himself was already trudging himself over to speak with them both.

"Tell me, why is it you wear that bulky hat?" Ryan asked her as he sat beside her, reaching towards the hat. Feeling her body shake with nerves, she slid away, keeping the hat on. Pursing her lips, she stared at Ryan.
"How ruude~" she teased, pulling the hat on tight enough, just so it wouldn't harm her, erm . .
"God, your so weird," Ryan mumbled, giving her a derp face, then looking at Anni. "Whats with your hat, too? Its getting hotter out, you know.."
Ryan needed to shut up, from Kaitlin's point of veiw. Last thing she needed was for her best guy friend to expose her.

The ride to school was normal. Long, filled with music and commercials from the small black radio, her mother cursing at the other drivers and being silent, and a nice 20 minute nap. Her mom drove up the driveway to her school, aiming at her best friend. Shaking her head and laughing at Kaitlins expression as she scuttled away fom the black Saturn, Anni reached down and grabbed her blue backpack (that was in serious need of a bath and a replacement), practically leaping from the car. "Bye mom!" She called, tugging her light orange hat down over her head, makig sure it was tucked securely over her.. erm..

Anyways! Darting up the steps, Anni called out a 'hello Dimples! Morning Zoe!' to the two figureswalking the long wayup onto the deck, and dropped her backpack underneath the bridge.

Que another tug on her hat and a scratch to the head.

Throwing open the door to the Lodge, the energetic red head announced her prescence with a loud 'HELLO EVERYONE! I HAVE ARRIVED!' to the entire four people in the room. Her science teacher, Mr. Young, Kaitlin, Other-Friend Ryan and his sister, Dana of the HORRIBLE BELCHES.

She was hyper. Taking a small jump from the top of the two steps, she landed loudly on the leaf mosaic on the floor, sliding to her knees in front of her best friend, Kaitlin Frazer. She too was wearing a hat, only this one was a bit larger due to the.. uhm...

"Good morning~!" She sang loudly, falling to her stomach to stare up at the other girl. Dana looked over from where she was eating a breakfast burrito, fresh from the microwave. "How are you so awake?" She mumbled, almost face planting into the burrito. Anni smiled widely, making a peace sign from her position on the floor. "Because I go to bed at a reasonable time, stupid!" She chuckled. She also ate a healthy breakfast and a protein shake before she left her house. It also didn't help that she was one of the hyperist people in school. No, that had absoltely no effect on her at all...

The car ride had been its usual self. Music was turned up to at least 46, the minimum to start the girls heart in the morning. Her carpool driver, as well as math teacher, rocked her head and threw punches at other drivers as she went, the Body Pump music still making her work from her class even earlier that morning. Her math teacher's daughter sat beside her in the front seat, her own iPod blasting so loud from the earbuds that she could even hear it over the loudness of the surround sound car speakers. Of course, Kaitlin could sleep through this.



Dimples turned off her car in put it in park, opening her door. As the door clicked open, Kaitlin felt the sleepiness of her mind instictively open Pillow, the car door she sat next to every morning. Her feet touched the cool concrete, her ankles sore from not walking much that day. Standing and sleepily grabbing her things from the trunk, Kaitlin went ahead of the other two and started for the Lodge.

It didn't take more than a few minutes for her to hike her way across the Circle and up the stairs to the bridge. She had tripped a bit on the branches that were scattered across the forest floor, and as soon as she had reached the smoothness of the concrete, she could have sworn that her best friend's mother had tried to hit her with her car.
Dropping her backpack onto the deck below the Bridge's Roofing, Kaitlin eased to the lodge door, making sure her hat was sucure. It was uncofortable, but it was nessicary.

"Yo, Kaitlin." A blond midget giant greeted her, his bangs folded over his eyes. Kaitlin gave a grunt of a reply and dropped her lunch on the ground near the others. There may have been two other people in the building, but the lunches seemingly outnumbered them. Clearly, some needed to be brought home. Mostly Corey's, as it seemed to talk to people.
Grunting and walking down to the Lodge's Circle area, Kaitlin kneeled down and sat against the backdoor, leaning her head back. The hat itched so badly it made her want to rip it off, whether or not she was at school. It was a secret, yes. But did she really care? No. Though, she simply adjusted her hat again, and stared off into the distance, yawning periodically.
