Falling asleep in the Common Room

Azrali sighed as she entered the Common room, her messenger bag thunking against her thigh, two text books in her left arm and three letters in her right hand. She felt over worked and agitated, but what was she going to do? Continue working. What else was she going to do? If she didn't do well in her classes her mom would kill her. She sighed as she dropped her books down on the coffee table and sat on the couch. She was so annoyed. She sat forward, her face in her hands, and groaned. She sighed and flipped open a textbook, lazily looking over it but not really reading it. She sighed and leaned forward, resting her head in her arms on the book and closed her eyes. She wanted to think that she wouldn't fall asleep in such an uncomfortable position, but she was wrong.

When she finally woke up, she was in the same uncomfortable position, but someone was sititng next to her. She yawned and stretched, sitting up sleepily. "Oh, bugger. How long was I out?" She muttered. She turned towards the person, "Oh, Ello."

"You've been out for a couple of hours," Henrietta replied as her eyes still scanned through the books she was reading. "And hello to you too. I'm Herietta but Henri is a better way to catch my attention."

Henri had been sitting next to the girl for a couple hours now and she found it incredibly awkward but she had no choice. Her dormitory was full of gossiping girls, the library was crowded, it was raining outside and there was no way she was going to study in the Great Hall.
