The next day

>BEEP!! BEEP!!

"Ughhh" I groan at the sound of my obnoxious alarm- I hate it so much-

I stood up from my bed and made sure to feed Lionel before I did anything else.
I always get up extremely early, I don't even know why, I mean I do cause that's what my mom asks me to do but I don't know why she wants me to get up so early.

I walked to my closet to get dressed, I wear basically the same thing everyday, I mean if the outfit works why fix it?

I ate breakfast then headed off to school, I like to walk instead of taking the bus because riding without seatbelts is a serious hazard.

I reach school in a timely manner and by timely I do mean half an hour early but that's about when Amaya gets here so it's all right.

"Hey Gregg!" Amaya runs to me which surprised me but is very usual- I guess I'm still on edge!

"Greg guess what?"

"What?"

"I got into that tutoring program I was telling you about!"

"Oh! The college prep one?"

"Mhm! Did you hear back yet?"

"No... but I'm so happy for you! If I don't get in I know who can help me!"

Amaya giggled and we both walked into the school library (it opens early on Fridays)

"You know, I'm still really nervous- I mean I know college is 2 years away but I still don't want us to be separated." Amaya looked to me but I didn't know what to say.

"Well, I'll make sure to visit you every weekend, and I'm sure Catboy would as well" I laugh then let out another sigh.

"Heh that's only if I get accepted into my dream university, but thanks Greg... or should I say Gekko?"

"What's with the Lizard puns?" Someone said from behind us, both Amaya and I turned.

It was the kid from last night. I could tell my face turned pale, mostly from shock- if not completely from shock?

"Uh who are you? Usually Greg and I are the only ones this early." Amaya said looking between mines and his faces.

"The names Lukas, And it's not that early, it's already 9? I didn't know you guys had your first class in here?" He shrugged and Amaya and I looked at each other.

"We're late?!?"

Amaya rushed out the door and I followed behind as we reached the entrance it was still empty outside.

"Huh lemme... it's still 8:45? That kid punked us!" Amaya groaned before sitting on a nearby bench.

"Heh, I guess everyone's out to get us, even in the daytime" I sat next to her, I wanted to think about that kid named... Markus? I think? But Amaya was clearly distressed and I didn't want to be absent in her sorrow so we sat and chatted till the first bell.

It was now after school, and Connor, Amaya and I were outside walking.

"How about we go to the movies? Or a documentary maybe?" Connor tried convincing Amaya to spend the evening with us but she was set on going home to study, trying to keep a 4.0 GPA seemed very difficult.

"Connor, I'm already going to get ice cream but I can't stay behind on my studies, plus I'll see you guys tonight when you know what happens!" Amaya stopped walking as did Connor, so instinctively I did aswell.

"Amaya, we just don't hang out as much, I mean Greg and I know you're going to get in that fancy University, so why not just have fun? Like old times, I promise I won't beg anymore?" Connor ended his surprisingly emotional monologue.

Amaya let out a sigh, I assumed she was gonna reply with a "no." but she smiled.

"After ice cream we can go see whatever movie you guys want, then we can eat out, on me, but no more events this month? Deal?"

I looked to Connor who looked at me and smiled.

"Dealio as Stealio" Connor winked

"What does that even mean?" I asked but he was too happy to even reply,

I mean I was happy aswell, so I didn't mind.
