Test week.

Tests are a teenagers enemy since there is no way of controlling the future, so we do what's best for it to have a positive outcome. We study our heads off. We spent hours and hours in the library or alone trying to cram as much information as possible into our brains. Aside from that we are expected to attend ten hours of school plus extracurriculars and have a social life, yet we have no time in between all of our everyday events. We come to our best resolution. We must cut sleep.

It's currently Tuesday... well not accurately. It's Wednesday and it's 2:51 am and I haven't slept since I'm too busy studying. I reach for the coffee on my desk, but when I'm about to slurp it I realize I have already drank it all.

"Fuck," I whisper to myself and I hear some grunts from the other side of the curtain

Suddenly a very groggy Logan appears in the curtains. "What are you doing," he asks rubbing his eyes

"Studying for this week's tests," I say and he walks into my portion of the room

"I might have to start doing that," he says and I nod before he goes into the bathroom

Our conversations have been short and dry since that day, but it was what's best for both of us. If we didn't interact we didn't have to speak of the matter. I liked it that way and so has he.

"When are you going to sleep," he asks getting out of the bathroom

"As soon as soon as it hits three o'clock," I say showing him my clock

"What are you studying about," he asks walking over to where my desk is

"ApUSH," I say showing him my notes and chrome book

"I took it last year,"  I turn to look at his face

"Do you remember this topic," I say giving him my chrome book

"Yep, but you need to help me with something," and suddenly he is sitting in my bed

"And what is that," I ask him frowning "You help me with my skating,"

"Oh please as if you need it," I say returning to my desk

"No help for you then," he says going to his side of bed and me going to bed since he robbed me ten minutes of studying

...

Wednesday noon

It's currently lunch time and I'm at the library with Cleo and we're studying for our Ap Lit test. This is a topic I'm familiar with since I tutored for this class before, so it's not as hard as other classes. Suddenly, Emory appears with Blake and they sit down in silence on the floor and start studying.

I love this library. It has dark wood shelves, a dark green paint, dark wood floors and gold chandeliers. It was the school's quietest library since it didn't have any electronic features besides amazing wifi access. The four of us sit here and we start to quiz each other.I quiz Cleo on a website I've found online and Blake quizzes Emory.

"So this means" I ask her and she answers gibberish  "Let's go again," I say and this time she understands

"Ohh," she says and I nod

"We are going to smash this test," she says and I smile

"Hell yeah we are," I say high fiving her

"Emory and I are going to eat are you going to join us," she asks getting up

"I can't I have to study," I say and they leave

"What are you studying for," I ask Blake

"Physics," he says and I haven't studied for it as much as I have for other classes
