I walk out of the classroom, taking a deep sigh feeling relieved my mid- terms are finally done. My hair is undone, my shirt messy and my head...? Well, don't ask.
Taking light steps towards the exit, I see a text in our group chat.
Stellar shenanigans
Naina: oh my god freedom never felt so sweet

Nova: so excited.
"Nova!" I hear someone yell so I shut off my phone and look up as Percy pushes past the sea of excited students filing out of classes.
With a crooked smile and messy blonde hair, he reaches me, "How'd it go?"
We fall into step together, "It was pretty good, to be honest."
"That's good." He nods, "I'm just glad its over."
Raindrops spatter on our shoulders as soon as we step outside, my hands flying to cover my head from getting drenched.
"Hey, do you want to grab coffee or something?" Percy suggests, pointing his finger behind him as he adjusts his glasses, "Nothing serious, just a causal thing."
"Sure." I shrug.
We sprint towards the cafe tucked into a cozy corner of campus, the smell of coffee wafting through the air.
"What do you want to order?" Percy asks, shifting through the menu.
"A regular coffee?"
After giving our orders, we take a seat at one of the tables.
