"James, would you please wake Ashley up before the period ends?" The Teacher asked, seeing the raven-haired girl fast asleep. "Will do Miss." James saluted as the teacher moved on to help another student. He glanced down at his friend, who was peacefully passed out on her desk, she had piled her belongings into a makeshift pillow and was using her arms and hair to keep light out of her eyes. It was the first time he had seen her look so calm, if not then the first time in a while. He wasn't sure if the others had noticed, but she had been acting differently, he couldn't place his finger on how exactly, but the best way he could describe it was she was more stressed. She didn't talk much about herself much so maybe it was her home life? He found himself blankly staring at her for a while before realising he still had a few more questions to answer. He'd let her sleep a while longer.
