George sat in a familiar chair, in a familiar place, and sadly with a familiar face. (i'm a poet guys)

"Yeahhh," Quackity clicked his tongue, "So your game yesterday. Did you guys kick ass?" He asked, leaning closer to Georges space.

"We did alright." George emotionlessly answered. Sitting in calc class with a bad mood talking to Alex wasn't what he wanted right now. Honestly he didn't do well during the game. The stress of midterms later in the week, and other things, were a lot to handle.

Alex hummed in response.
Peaceful silence lasted 10 seconds.

"Hey, yknow what?" Alex started, pepping up, "You should give me your number."

"Why would I do that?"

Quackity huffed, "Because then we could talk outside of this class. And also pictures of the notes." He giggled.

"I don't give away my phone number." George said bluntly, reaching down to get out his notebook and pencils out.

"Whatever dude. I don't even need your number, I have so many friends. It's- it's like I have none!"

George didn't answer.

"Please!" Alex surprised George with one last plead.

Embarrassing, but persistent.

"Fine." George breathed.

The day of midterms arrived quicker than George wanted. Only two short days later he found himself walking to his first test.

But after three long days, the testing was over. Now with that out of the way, he has other things on his mind.

"Okay George, you ready?" Karl eagerly asked while standing near the door. He was swinging around his keys obnoxiously.

"No hold on!" George yelled from the bathroom. He looked at himself in the mirror, swept a hand through his hair, and sighed.

It was saturday. The day Alex and Karl planned the 'pool party'
They called it that even though the only people planning on going was him, Alex, Karl, Nick, and probably Clay.
