The door to a college dormitory swung open and Courtney burst inside in a complete frenzy.
Due to her recklessness, she accidentally ran smack into a young woman who also just so happened to be leaving at that time.
"Ow!" She cried as she hit the floor.
"Shit, I'm sorry!" Courtney panicked. "Are you alright??"
"Ugh… Y-Yea. Door gave me a pretty clean hit though…"
A clean hit was an understatement. The young woman's nose was bleeding.
Feeling guilty, Courtney ran across the room to the kitchen and grabbed two fist fulls of paper towels.
"H-Here."
The young woman snickered.
"All this for one little nosebleed is a bit much don't you think?"
"Oh… now that you mention it…" Courtney was so embarrassed that she could have imploded.
In all fairness, her concern wasn't wholly out of the blue.
Courtney's father never turned her into a dragon, but he gave her the sin of pride when she was just five years old.
