The bell rings, and school is finally OVER! I grab my backpack and head straight out of the school building. And with my luck I spot Calum just a few feet away from me. I need to confront him about the project, but should I though? He's surrounded by his friends. I think their names are Luke and Michael? I really need to stop being a pussy about this. I walk silently behind him and softly pat his shoulder.

"Um, Calum?" I ask nervously. He turns around, obviously confused to why I'm talking to him.
"Yes?" He scoffs.
"I was just w-wondering when you wanted to work on the project."
"What if I just write an essay about myself, and you do the same. And then we'll trade when it's due." He sighs.
"Yeah o-okay sure." I smile nervous. His friends just stare at me, as I turn around to walk home.
