Ivy stands in front of Heidi like she's sculpted from contempt and high society. Her hair is perfect. She's wearing a pencil-pressed skirt and an expression designed to be perfectly dismissive.
Heidi clocks the NAY boys walking away, two dark birds gone… which means she can deal with this pest in front of her however she deems fit. She wouldn't want to be sassy in the presence of her sweet brother.
She looks at Ivy with a calm that fools no one. "Why? What's it to you if I'm hiding?"
Ivy's laugh is a chisel as she shrugs. "Because, darling, how about 'cause I can?"
"How about: No, you don't own the school or its grounds, so you CAN NOT?" Heidi counters, eyes blazing.
Oh, she's bloody ready for these damn bitches today. If there's one thing she's learned in the labyrinth, it's that she's not as weak as everyone in the school makes her feel.
