Maddie sat in front of Miguel and Demetri working on her PSAT. She had studied all month for it and was doing pretty well, at least she thought.
All of a sudden she heard a pencil drop and then heard Demetri's voice, "What's going on? The test is almost over."
She turned around and saw Miguel who looked really upset. She exchanged a worried glance with Demetri before looking back at the boy behind her.
"It's just a practice test. Relax." he blew Demetri off.
"Easy for you to say. You have a girlfriend." Demetri whined.
"What does that have to do with anything?" Miguel asked in disbelief. Maddie squeezed her temple together. There was about 10 minutes left in the test and she had one question left, she should be fine.
"I gotta do well on these, so I do well on the actual test, so I get into a good college, which will lead to a good internship, then a high-paying job, and then, after a couple promotions, I should have enough confidence to get a super-hot girl." Demetri nodded to himself.
Maddie exchanged an exasperated look with Miguel. She didn't understand why Demetri didn't just go for someone.
"You got the karate thing. And so does she. Not to mention she's also drop dead gorgeous, but that's besides the point. I gotta play the long game." Demetri explained, before going back to his test.
Maddie leaned over and grabbed Miguel's hand. He looked at her with a sad expression.
"Hey, it's ok. We'll get to the bottom of this, I'm sure of it." When Miguel had seen Robby at Sam's house, he called her right away. She didn't get much in before he hung up, too upset.
Miguel nodded at her before she let go and got back to her test. She finished just a minute later. She looked over her test, satisfied. Just in time as well, because the bell then rang, signaling the end of test taking.
As Miguel, Demetri, and Maddie walked out of their classroom, they saw Sam waiting there, and Sam grabbed Miguel.
"Hey." she greeted.
"Hey." he said, not as enthusiastically. They both kissed and Maddie averted her gaze for a second before standing beside Miguel.
"I'll-I'll meet you guys." Demetri spoke, before walking away.
"Yeah." both Maddie and Miguel called after him.
"What's with the doom and gloom? Come on. I'm sure you did amazing, again." Sam questioned, all cheery. Maddie frowned and sighed, causing Sam's attention to be averted to her best friend for a second, before Miguel pulled it back.
"Yeah, I was just a little..." Miguel trailed.
"Distracted." Maddie finished for him. He pointed at her signaling she was right. Maddie crossed her arms and had a sad look on her face.
