as you already know, i sat next to him in my first lecture of my degree.
his back was ramrod straight, he sat staring out front not blinking. i smiled at him when i sat down, despite the fact that he wasn't looking at me.
he was quiet for the entire lecture, and it continued that way for about two months.
until one day, he came in wearing a gas mask. yeah, a gas mask, like the old fashioned gas masks worn in the 1940s during the war. the lecturers are usually pretty lenient on what you wear, but our lecturer did demand he take it off.
he sat there for ages, i couldn't tell what he was thinking, since you know the gas mask.
but he did eventually, only when he did it turns out he had painted the area around his eyes black.
the lecturer glared at him for a long time before, he turned back around. i was still staring, his deep blue eyes flickered to me.
he winked at me, and my heart went crazy.
he leaned in, and ushered me closer. i don't know why i did it, but i moved so that he was close to my ear.
"spontaneous quiz, luke i am your stoner?" he said to me. what the hell?
"knocked up" i replied.
he leaned back, blank face. he didn't speak to me again for a while after that.
