"Anytime," Layla replied. Determined to switch subjects and to cheer her friend up, Layla added, "So you know, it's about time for dinner and I hear that tonight's special is something delicious; if I'm not mistaken I think the cook is going to be making some special dessert - probably in celebration of some princess' birthday. So what do you say I run down to the dining hall and snatch you a plate of food? I'm sure you're must be at least a little bit hungry, right?"

Flora's stomach growled at the mention of food, causing her to blush a richer shade of crimson. "I really haven't eaten all day. I tried to head down to lunch earlier but my legs aren't quite working yet. I fell to the floor and I decided that bed was safer," she said, giving a light self mocking laugh.

"Enjoy your time in bed; I mean, how often does anyone around here get to have almost a full week free of classes? I know that I wouldn't mind being in your position right now - you know, minus the whole situation with the sand merks; I could definitely go without the sand merks. But lying in bed for a few days? That I can do. But only for a few days because after that it gets a little bit repetitive . . . and I'm rambling." Layla rolled her eyes and laughed. "Anyhow, what I'm trying to say is that you should just kick back and enjoy having people wait on you; you're too giving sometimes, Flora, you know." Pausing, Layla smiled, "Okay, I really am going to go get your food now."
Layla walked over to the door and just as she slipped through the opening, she called back over her shoulder, "Remember - take it easy for once!"

Layla had a point, Flora had to admit. She was just a bit too giving. Now that she thought about it, wasn't it Stella who had nicknamed her "Miss Goody Two Shoes" or was that "Doormat"? She was more comfortable doing things for others then having others do things for her.
She nodded once as she had decided that she was only going to ask her friends for the lecture notes from the classes they shared and if they could bring her meals. That was it. She wasn't going to abuse their friendship and ask for extravagent things.
