Cigarettes & Coffee Hearts

Tutor?!

I woke up more tired than ever before. After the concert last night, the band decided to celebrate since we survived round one. We didn't do much, but we did hang out at the stage and decided to talk to the remaining bands about the competition - leaving out Midnight Wolves. Some of the bands were actually pretty interesting, and we even made a few friends. A few hours of talking and we had decided it was time to go back to the dorms and crash.
I yawned and cursed the blinding sunlight that beamed through the window. Sam was already up, playing some game on her computer. "Morning buttercup." She muttered before yawning herself. I looked at the clock to see it was only 9:30. "Any plans for today?" I asked. She just shook her head. "I'm going to hang out with Hunter." She looked at me shyly. "And you know, the rest of the group..." I saw a faint blush form on her cheeks. "Sam, it's fine. Go hang out with Hunter. I'll find something to do, I promise". She looked a little relieved at my request. I walked to the bathroom, took a quick shower, and did my morning routine.
When I got out of the bathroom, Sam was gone, so I decided to leave as well. I didn't really have anywhere I needed to go, so I just decided to walk around the campus. I was enjoying my little stroll until I saw Derek walk out of the Guidance building. I walked over to him to ask what it was about. "Hey, why you walking out of here for?" I walked beside him, and I could tell something was up. "It's nothing really." He muttered, looking the opposite way. I stopped in front of him and crossed my arms "Okay, seriously. What's up? What happened that caused you to come from there." I motioned to the Guidance Building. He coughed into his hand awkwardly before muttering a few curse words. "I'm failing Sociology. If I don't get up up, I'll be kicked out of Band Jam, as for the rest of you guys. We'll be eliminated from competition". I looked at him, bewildered. And then I sighed because I knew what I was going to have to do.
Tutor him.
And I really did not want to tutor him.
"Dammit. Fine okay, come with me. We're going to my dorm". I grabbed his wrist and began to pull him in the direction of my dorm. He struggled against my grip. "What the hell are you talking abou-" I cut him off, whipping around. "If you're going to be an immature little shit, I won't tutor you". I let go of his wrist and began to walking away, only to have my wrist have the same tight grip his had just a few moments ago. "Fine. Thank you." He agreed, but I simply pulled my wrist out of his grip and began to lead him to the dorms. "I'm not doing this for you, I'm doing this for the band."
A few hours later, and tons of studying, we decided to take a break. I got off the bed and walked over to Sam's cabinet and I grabbed a can of Sprite, throwing a second to Derek. He caught it with ease and popped the top open. "I swear if you don't ace that test tomorrow, I swear I will kill you". He looked at me in confusion. "How do you know I have a test tomorrow?". I flicked him on the forehead. "I don't have this book for fun. Plus," I turned on the TV. "I may or may not be in your class."
"What? Since when? I've never seen you in my class." Confusion definitely clouded his face. And you bet I laughed at it.
"I sit in the back corner. It's easier back there. Professors can't see you, and they can't call on you if they can't see you." He groaned at the smart idea.
"You smart son of a gun." He laughed. I felt a smile creep up on my face as well. He looked at the scattered papers and books on my bed. "So um, in exchange for you tutoring me for tomorrow, how about I take you somewhere to eat before Band Jam tonight? I'll drive to that too." He suggested. I felt a bit of heat creep into my cheeks, so I took a drink of my Sprite to lessen it. " Sounds like a deal," I said and jumped off the bed, putting on my shoes. I turned to face him. "But first off, I tutored you for the sake of the band. And second, I choose where we eat." He laughed. "Alright. Fine, lets go. I'm starving". And with that, we left.
[YES FINALLY A POSSIBLE DATE FOR THE TWO. MAN I SUCK AT THIS IM SORRY GUYS. ILL UPDATE TONIGHT OR TOMORROW. SEE YA THEN.]
