Play the game of school

Arushi's POV -

"How can someone be so pretty? He should be illegal." I said , overwhelmed by even thinking about him.

"You need to sort out your priorities." Yami said beside me , laughing.

"Like you never got obsessed with fictional characters. They're just so....ahhhhh" I put my head in my hands , another wave of goosebumps and butterflies hitting me.

"Anything you would like to share with us Arushi?" My teacher called me out.

No , fuck off.

"I'm sorry ma'am." I said , sheepishly.

"It's alright. Kindly pay attention now." She said , resuming her teaching.

"Oh my god! You would've got me in trouble too if I hadn't turned my head around to get my book!" Yami whisper-shouted.

"What trouble? She literally just talked to me while smiling?" I asked her.

"She called you out for not paying attention in class in front of everyone!!" She retorted.

....so?

"C'mon..it's not a big deal." I told her , shrugging my shoulders. She looked like she was restraining herself from saying something.

"It is a big deal for me." She muttered under her breath and I chuckled.

Alright Hermione , you're in for a big ride.

"C'mon class , we're going to the computer lab today." The joy that those words sparked in our blood is incomparable. The cheering that broke out from our classmates made me cheer in excitement too. There was actually nothing to be excited about. It was some weird flex sitting in the computer lab and doing nothing while the teacher begs you to do something. Monkey minds think alike.

We were start of the line...if you could call it a line. We would've been there at the end if it wasn't for Yami but oh well. All of the students were taking their time to get to the lab.
But no no no , not us. Why? Because we should be there at time.

I rolled my eyes at Yami's words as did the two boys. We were talking when those two decided to shout in the hallway.

(Author's note- This is a hindi song , if you don't understand hindi , just know that it is not something you would shout in school hallways.)

"Kaamwaaliya re meri kaamwaaliya!!!!
Yeh dono hai meri kaamwaaliya!!!" They started shoutin- singing in sync.

I widened my eyes and looked at them unaffected by the eyes of other people.
But look oh!
We're the only ones here..thank god.

"Are you two out of your minds?" Yami said , trying to contain her laugh.

Okay , so me murmuring in class she has a problem with but them shouting in the hallways is not a big deal. I didn't mind them either actually.

I laughed along with the other three as the computer lab came into view. It was now their cue to stop as three teachers must be sitting inside. Me and Yami were walking a little ahead , clutching our stomachs , trusting them to be sensible enough to stop when we enter the lab.

But they didn't.

I spun around to see them proudly singing with their eyes closed and looked at the teachers.....smiling?

What the fuck?
Weird humans.

Our computer teacher  looked at me and Yami as we grabbed their hands and shushed the boys to our seats. They finally shut up when they realized where they were.

I laughed and turned towards Aditya sitting next to me " You guys have no chill."  Yami was shaking her head and now all four of us were laughing at this bizarre scene.

Our class slowly filled the seats around us and everyone looked like they were having the time of their lives while were supposed to write computer programming.

"Let's see who can type the fastest!" Akshat got a brilliant childish idea in his head.

"Let's go!" I said , nodding along.

"You three play , I'm writing in my notebook." Yami said with a smile.

"But-" I started but was cut off by Aditya.

"Suits you. Let's go!"

Alright then...

I started typing with my flash fingers , thanking all those years spent on texting.
Right now , the competition was between me and Aditya. When he saw that I was winning , he kept on typing with his right hands and held my hands with his left one.

You fucking cheater!

"Let...me...go!!" I said in between my laughs.

He didn't comply , of course just continued typing.

After 2 seconds , he let my hand go and put a pencil pouch between our hands , still keeping my hands steady while not touching me.

Oh my god , this guy...

As soon as I realized what he was doing , I stopped my struggling and just gave up , smiling up at him.

Very thoughtful sir , now let me fucking win.

He looked at me confusedly as to why I had stopped my struggling and loosened his grip.

Stupid.

I typed the last 2 sentences in 5 seconds and won the round.
He was typing it from the last 50 million years.

"That wasn't fair!" He whined.

"And what you did was?!" I retorted.

"I never go fair and anyways you made me confused. I thought you got angry at me or something" He huffed.

"Worry and emotions always makes people confused."
