Well. That was it, then. This semester had been charming and all, really, but no way was Rebecca sticking around school for a summer when she could be tanning on the beach somewhere exotic. Like South Carolina or something. Anywhere she could pass for a college kid, basically.

So on this fine morning, she was loading her meticulously-folded clothing collection and assorted other belongings into her bags. Some stuff, she almost thought she might be able to leave lying around -- she'd be back in September, after all -- except on second thought she really might not, because her track record for sticking to boarding schools really wasn't the best. Better to avoid having to make an awkward return if she didn't have to, all things considered.

Finally, her stuff thus packed, she whistled for Pitt and took a seat on her empty bed, surveying the room.

...

"It's really a shame," she decided, "about that headboard."

Yeah, sorry, next occupant of 303. That headboard was pretty much a goner at this point.

Beat.

"And the dent in the wall."

Well, she'd made her mark, at least. That was nice.

Well. It had been almost a week and Pitt the cat didn't seem to want to budge, even though all the other kids who'd shown up on the island had long since vanished.

It was possible, Rebecca supposed, that Pitt just wasn't one of those kids, and was simply a cat who'd shown up randomly at her door. Although really, the research she'd had her father's secretary do done pointed toward Pitt being of a decent, show-cat sort of breed, so that seemed unlikely. Maybe he was just too obstinate to get into strange portals when there was already a human around to give him food and stacks of pillows to hide behind. That sounded plausible.

Well. Regardless of what it was, she and Pitt were cohabitating fairly well.

"You know, I think I like you better than Matt," she decided, watching Pitt leap over her desk to sit on a cushion on the windowsill. Pitt had the grace to look appreciative. "Just don't step on my clothes and we'll be fine."
