It was only the first day, and the place was already swarming with people. Maddie could practically see dollar signs waving at her.

Suddenly, there was a knock on her table. Looking up, Maddie saw it was Lexie, gazing at her with a goofy expression, clueless about what Lexie might want.

Seeing Maddie's dopey look, Lexie felt a surge of irritation and, hopping from one foot to the other, exclaimed, "Maddie, quit staring at me like a deer caught in headlights. Didn't you promise we'd have a go at each other? I'm here to take you up on that. Let's head to the back lawn of the dorm."

She apologetically put down her pen and said, "Sorry, totally slipped my mind. You're here for that brawl, right? Sure, let's get going."

"Now?" Lexie raised an eyebrow.

Maddie checked the time and nodded, "Yeah, now. The gates aren't closed yet. We'll have time to get back after."
