Then use it she does. 

When she's done, she decides to go exploring. With her camera, obviously.

!!!

Juliet explores the dark room, she will stay here until school starts if she's left unattended.

No one interrupts her.

She hears movement outside eventually. The janitor, pushing a cart down the hallway.

...she turns on the Darkroom In Use sign.

The cart moves past her door.

She continues doing her thing.

Juliet finishes off what she can and then packs up her stuff. She leaves the In Use sign on and exits the room, attempting casual.

The art teacher, setting up for the day ahead, seems to object to this, but stares in shock rather than articulating any specific complaints.

"Um. Sorry. Am I not allowed in there?"

"I- you should ask for permission next time, but students can use any rooms we have, that's what they're for."

"Okay. I can do that. Thank you." She shuffles to the door. "I gotta get to homeroom."

Arrive to homeroom she does.

The teacher calls attendance, and the students recite the Pledge of Allegiance, and then they move on.

Juliet does so happily. Afterwards does she find anyone to be happy at?

Erica catches her on her way out.

"Hey. You haven't been in school. What happened?"

"Hey! Uh. I screwed up and my dad got upset. I was grounded." She smiles at her. "Did I miss anything exciting?"

"Not really. Jackson Whittemore had a breakdown in the cafeteria, but not much else."

"Is he alright?"

"I don't know, he's not really my problem."

"Did something happen to cause it?"

"Something about his parents," she says vaguely.

They arrive in science class.

Juliet sits next to Erica. "That's sad. I probably shouldn't ask him about it though?"

"I don't know. He's never seemed like the sensitive type. I didn't even know you guys talked."

"We met on Thursday. I think we got along well."
