Lyrics: West Side StoryThe novelty of the shiny badge was fast wearing off. Ann saw it as a responsibility, something that she'd been entrusted to do, and whilst she still felt surges of pride at the thought, the Ravenclaw couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed with the sudden changes that were promptly instigated.
The changes, she tried to take it in her stride. When the clock hit the time, she'd left her studying where she'd been located in the common room, before promptly slipping out of the common room. Patrols, such a disruption to academic success.
It was dark out, obviously, and Ann was pretty sure nobody would be out after curfew. Really, it was against the rules, and why anyone would go about breaking rules was beyond Ann. She'd been told otherwise though, but hadn't had the evidence to back that up. Sighing as she pushed open the door to the trophy room, peering in and making sure to look in the various corners. Was that- ooh shiny!
A noise from behind her caused the Prefect to jump, turning around and pull out her wand, all in one movement. She wasn't going to yell out, that was a stupid, reckless thing to do. Instead, she murmured "lumos," as she braced herself for the worst- a Slytherin.
"Demi? What are you doing here?" Ann whispered with a sense of urgency, all the while forgetting to lower her wand so the light wasn't shining in Demi's face. "You know it's past curfew, right?"
