"Well done to Jackie and Ryan for an excellent group presentation."

"Well done to Elisa for your part in the presentation."

He turned to the popular girl, "stay after class we need to have a word about your lack of participation. Everyone you can leave."

As I walked out the classroom I already knew that Easton was probably confused about why his name wasn't called to stay behind.

As I walked out the school building I felt a hand on my wrist.

"My name wasn't called..." he said, confused.

"I may have or may not have done it." I speak.

As I tell him, this smile appears on his face as he stares at me. A smile I haven't seen before, like he's the happiest ever.

And Easton never smiled.
