So many math problems. Clock's ticking. His pencil flies across the paper, while hers taps against the table. One hand plays with the chain of her cherry charm necklace.The boy jumps out of his seat and runs up to the teacher. Words are exchanged. Then he runs back. The girl breathes a sigh of relief. Staring back at the problem a thought starts to form. And then her pencil sprinted. She grabbed her paper and walked up to the half asleep teacher. After what felt like two hours the teacher looked up.
"We have a winner." She said lazily. The classroom groaned and the girl grinned. A sticker proclaiming '100%' was at the top of her paper. She skipped back to her desk next to the boy. He rolled his eyes.
"You got lucky."
"Oh really?" The girl pulled out her binder and added the sticker to the back with nineteen others just like it. "That's twenty. Guess who has to buy dinner tonight?"
The boy sighed and rubbed his eyes.
"Red Robin?"
"Yep."
"Seven?"
"Right again."
"Are you going to wear a dress and expect me to me fancy too?"
"Yes I am."
The boy leaned over and kissed her cheek.
"See you tonight nerd."
"See you tonight loser."
