"I could do with another three hours of sleep. I'm spent" grumbled Mick as he, Amber and Anastasia walked the halls to their next class together.

"Same. Don't think I got more than two consecutive hours last night" grumped Ana.

"Do you think she really did see a g-o-s-t?" asked Amber worriedly.

"No way, ghosts aren't real," argued Ana.

"Nothing would get past Victor the deathwatch beetle. He would scare a ghost to death" joked Mick, trying to make Amber feel better. "Where do you wanna sit?"

But Amber quickly abandoned the pair to sit with Nina in the front of the room instead.

"Well that just leaves us" laughed Ana, pulling the Jock to their normal seats in the back of the classroom. Getting out her French textbook and notebook, Ana got ready for the lesson.

"Morning, everyone" greeted their teacher as she entered the classroom.

"Morning, Mrs Andrews" echoed the class.

"I have your French test papers to hand back here" announced the teacher as she walked around handing back the exams.

"I got an A?" said Mick disbelievingly. "I got an A! Woohoo!!!" he cheered, pulling Mara into a hug from across the row.

"I knew you could do it," commented Mara.

"What's going on?" asked Amber, eyeing Mick who was still hugging Mara.

"I got an A!"

"What?" Amber asked, shocked. Honestly Ana couldn't blame her, she had seen Mick's lack of preparation for this test so it was quite a surprise he not only passed but got an A.

"I'm sure I didn't get all of these," admitted Mick. "But, Maybe I just made some really good guesses?"

"Stranger things have happened, eh, Mara?" asked Jerome, putting in his two cents.

Mara just sat quietly. Ana shot the pair a weird look... was something going on?

"Okay, settle down please" called Mrs. Andrews. "Amber, back to your seat. We need to begin our lesson for today".

Amber went reluctantly back to her seat while Ana turned her attention to the board, a beaming Mick sitting beside her.

"Mara, what's going on between you and Mick? You were acting very strange earlier?"

"Nothing! Amber, please. Let it go. I'm not even tutoring him anymore" begged Mara, only to yelp as Amber started to go through her bag. "Hey! That's private!"

"Funny. You and Mick must be like, psychically linked or something" snarked Amber angrily.

"Busted," laughed Jerome loudly.

"You creep! You did this" accused Mara, whirling around angrily.

"I never said a word. Promise" replied Jerome, holding up his hands in surrender.

"Why are you calling him a creep?" asked Amber. "You're the creep. Stealing my boyfriend by helping him cheat".

"I'm not stealing your boyfriend! And Mick doesn't know anything about it!" yelled Mara.
