When do you finish classes?

November's pov:

The foggy streets of Greytown are full of people busy living their lives. While here I am in a hurry to get on time for the beginning of my classes, I am always on the verge of being late because of how far my apartment is from the campus. Even tho I go to the University of Greytown, that doesn't mean that I need to live in the dorms the university offers. I am a shy person who prefers a quiet and calm atmosphere, so when I got accepted by the university I started looking for an apartment to live on my own. Sometimes there's nothing that makes me more happy than having enough peace and privacy.
I am a liberal art major, first year to be precise.
I am always in a hurry because I keep on forgetting things like once when I forgot to finish my assignment for one of my classes and I got an 4 because I forgot about it. By the time I got to class it was already 8:25 'Exactly on time' I sighed in relief. After some minutes I noticed a pair of eyes that were locked on me the whole time since I entered the classroom it were Gavin's..
Yes that Gavin!

Gavin's pov:
7:34 am

I woke up by the sound of the front door closing, it was my roommate that is almost never at the dorm.
Surprisingly today he is.. I mean he was, he'll probably come back next week or something, he always sleeps over to his girlfriend house, it would be better if he would just leave the dorm. I got up to check the time, it was almost 7:38 am so I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth then put some clothes on. Then proceeded to make a sandwich to eat later on the way to the campus. I always leave earlier not to be late and forget things, so I took my backpack and the sandwich and left for classes. By the time I arrived it was 8:14 am. When I got to class Mrs.Watson handed me two pieces of paper that were blank? I asked her what the papers where for, and she told me that we must do a project due to next month together with a classmate about a topic we had learned in the past months. I told her that I'm not really that close to no one in my class. She then answered: what about November?
November? That November? We never really talked. I then told Mrs. Watson that I never really got the chance to talk to her, plus I'm also kind of shy!
She than laughed at my response and told me not to worry because everything will be alright.

Back to November's pov:

Gavin was staring at me the whole time since I got here. He has never done that.. before I got to take another look at him Mrs. Watson began her speech in front of the class. "Good morning dear children, today I would like to introduce you all to the new project we will all begin with. For this project you need a partner"
A partner I thought to my self. Why do we need a partner for, we can make the project alone it's not that hard.
"If any of you is thinking right now :why do we need a partner for this project? Well since you guys are liberal art majors you guys need to communicate with others too. I get that sometimes it is awkward to talk with someone you really don't know nothing about but we're here to learn after all, aren't we?"
She's got a point but how am I supposed to communicate with someone if I don't even know who my partner is?
"I'm gonna tell you all the groups I have made myself specifically for this project, just to be sure everyone is going to work on something it doesn't matter if it means that you need to search up things, write, print, or draw something. Everyone must do something! And most importantly communicate, learn thing about each other and make friends"
While Mrs. Watson was reading the groups she made herself I had a chance to take a look at Gavin who was surprisingly not looking at me anymore.
Then I heard her voice saying: November and Gavin!
I didn't know how to react to that, I turned around to look at Gavin. He was looking at me with puppy eyes that held the whole universe in them.
I thought to myself: it cannot be that bad right? Right? I mean we know each other since forever. We were in the same class since middle school.
Let's give it a try

Gavin's pov:

There she was. November was almost late as always! I stared at her for a while now I wonder if she has noticed or not. I don't know how i am supposed to talk to her. I am afraid I will say something embarrassing or make things awkward between us, we never really talked before! Just remember what Mrs.Watson said. Everything will be fine. By the time Mrs. Watson announced the groups she made herself I decided to think about a topic for the project and a way to not embarrass myself. To late she was now starting back at me after the teacher said our names. I'm doomed.
I hope everything will be fine.
