"I refused."

You breathed out hard as you pounded your hands on top of your professor's desk.

All your teacher did was stare back at the two problems in front of him.

"She's right, Mr Archimedes -"

Dang, am I right. First time we actually agreed on something.

"I can't work with...this..."

Ratio stayed quiet as he tried to find the correct words.

"Mediocriter of the mathematical field."

I take that back.

"What did you call me?"

Ratio crossed his hands across his chest.

"You heard me perfectly fine the first time."

"I'm simply being a decent human being and giving you a chance to correct your wording."

Before Ratio could open his mouth to retort back, the professor spoke up.

"You're right. You two wouldn't work together."

Both of you whipped your heads back to the teacher in newly founded hope.

"Thank you, Mr-"

"Not so fast. What I meant to say is that you two won't have to work together at the price of 30% of your grade."

All hopes crumbled to the ground.

"What...?"

Ratio and you stared in shock.

Mr Archimedes simply took his glasses off to wipe them.

"This project is mandatory for all students, and the groups are randomised, meaning you couldn't pick who to or not work with."

"But -"

"So as to what I was saying, whether you want to or not, we can't force you, but it would be detrimental to your grade."

A loud clatter rang around the room as you peeked and saw that Ratio out of shock had dropped his prized book.

This was the same book he carried around with him wherever he went.

Wow, this must have hit him where it hurts.

"Well?"

Mr Archimedes smiled brightly as if oblivious to the gapping students in front of him.

In this gloomy room, he shined the brightest.

This could only end in one way...

1-0 to Mr Archimedes.

Sensing the inevitable defeat, Ratio quickly grabbed your wrist before bowing down to Mr Archimedes.

"I thank you for your time, Professor."

"No worries though next time, please hesitate before reaching out to me about you two issues."

Ratio quickly left the room, dragging you closely behind.

You two made it halfway out of the corridor before he let go.

Massaging your arm where he once held, you scowled.

"Maybe next time, grab my backpack, I felt like my arm grew a whole inch from all that dragging."

Ratio only rolled his eyes in response.

"Now I'm stuck with you."

The disgust clear in his tone.

"Don't talk as if I'm not stuck with you too."
