Claire had gone back to Arlington to attempt to regain some normalcy, and realized immediately that it was a futile effort. Word had spread about her infamous jump, despite her best efforts to remain anonymous. Gretchen bailed on her, turned out even she didn't like all the attention Claire was getting. Mostly because it took the focus off herself.
But the former cheerleader who could regenerate tried her very best to get on with her life, going back to class once they'd started up a new semester. She was still undeclared, but leaning toward psychology. She wanted to be able to help people like her.
For now, she had to focus on keeping a low profile. Noah lectured her for days after the jump, and for good reason. After the fact, she realized the foolishness of her actions, but she still believed the world should know about specials. The faster they were educated, the faster they might get over their fear.
But Noah ultimately let her go back to Arlington, hoping things would blow over, and no one would come after her... She walked around campus with her head down, trying to avoid the stares.
