(Karl's POV)I opened my eyes to a bright light pouring out from my window and my alarm clock blaring in my ears. I push myself up into a sitting position, smack my alarm clock, and stretch my arms high into the air. Before pulling my puffy blanket off and stepping  onto my carpeted floor. Groggily, I stretched again before picking up my phone and heading towards my closet, I picked out a white collared shirt with a purple sweater over top. I grab some cuffed jeans and slip them on, I then pair them with a pair of high-top converses. 

After getting ready, I walk downstairs, and I sigh in relief when I walk past the couch and see no sign of my mom. I grabbed my school bag and pulled my phone out of my pocket. I open the camera and look at my hair. And ruffle it a bit before putting my phone back in my pocket.

 I jump slightly as I hear a noise behind me, "Karl?" I turn around to see none other than my little sister staring at me "Hi Lizzy why are you still here, shouldn't you have gone with mum?" she runs toward me before bursting out in tears, I pick her up into my arms and hug her"She g-got mad a-at me Karl She sniffles before continuing "and she yelled, and it was scary, and then she said she wasn't going to take care of me anymore." I hold her tighter to my chest and stroke her hair"shh Lizzy calm down it's all okay, i'll drive you to school." She looks up at me with red, puffy eyes, "Really, but you will be late for your school." I giggle slightly "Lizzy it's fine your more important anyway" I smile at her before setting her down and squatting to her level "Now why don't you go get your backpack so we can go, and then i'll pick you up after school, and we can maybe get a treat? How does that sound?" I see her face perk up as she runs to go get her backpack while screaming "Okay!"


(Sapnaps POV)I set my head on my desk as the teacher mindlessly rambles about some mathematical equation we've only been in the class for around 40 minutes, so we still have around 35 left which is too long for my liking not to mention that no one I know is in this class except for George, and he's refusing to talk to me. I get pulled out of my thoughts as I hear someone calling my name. "Sapnap? Sapnap?" I look up at the teacher who is now standing in front of the whiteboard, "Uh-Yeah?" I say nonchalantly like I wasn't just zoned out, "You haven't answered a question, why don't you come up and solve one? "Fuck" I nod my head "um sure" "I haven't been paying attention at all"

 I start to get up but am interrupted as someone walks through the classroom door "Hello I apologize for being this late something came up that I needed to figure out." the teacher looks at him sternly "fine ill let it slide just this once now go sit down and get the notes off of someone beside you" I see him smile and scan the room for a seat before staring directly at me, I feel the guilt grow in my stomach as Karl walks over to the empty seat beside George and sits down they immediately start joking around until Karl makes eye contact with me, he smiles sadly before looking back at George "I need to say sorry" I rest my head back on my desk and look at the boy he smiles as George says something to him, he's perfect from his cute smile to his fluffy brown hair "What the fuck am I thinking about"

 I get pulled out of my thoughts as chairs scuff against the floor and textbooks get packed away. What? How is the class already over was i thinking about Karl for that long? I watched George pack up his stuff before turning to tell Karl something before leaving the classroom. After almost everyone had left, I walked up to Karl. He didn't notice me as he was still putting his books away. I hesitantly poked his shoulders. I stepped back as he turned around. "Oh uh hi Sapnap.". "Karl uh. can we talk like um now?" He looked up at me with a sad smile. "Sure about?" I knew he knew what I wanted to talk to him about. My hands started to sweat. Everyone had left the class at this point including the teacher leaving us completely alone. " Karl I'm so sorry I shouldn't have gotten mad at you over something that was not your fault I didn't mean anything I said, and I know we just met, but I would like to stay your friend." He looked up at me and smiled before taking a step forward and hugging me. "It's fine" he giggled as I slowly hugged him back, heat rushing up to my face. He eventually let go of me before picking up his bag and walking to the door of the classroom. He stopped before turning "Bye Sapnap" he then headed out the classroom door.

 I stood there flustered and confused from the whole situation. I smiled to myself before picking up my bag and heading out of the classroom.
