I unlocked the front door and stepped in the house finding Nyx playing xbox upside-down on the couch. The headset was on her head, but she wasn't yelling at anyone yet so I assumed she was doing good.

I sat beside her and pulled my homework out and got to it without another word. She had set up dinner on the coffee table in front of me, and I picked at it from time to time as I did my work.

That was the rule after all. As soon as we get home, no matter how late, we shut up and do homework, no questions asked. If the other person tries to cause them to procrastinate or makes it hard to focus then they get in trouble. But if the other person was doings something loud first then there is no penalty.

So now that I'm here, Nyx can't yell at the TV. So I saw her mute her mic out of the corner of my eye.

While I was focused on my homework, she was focused on the game. After a few more kills the game was over and she got up and made me a drink which she set in front of me.

"You going to class?" I asked as I picked up the drink and sipped on it.

"Not for another hour, no." She admitted. "But I don't want to lay down otherwise I won't get up when I'm supposed to."

"Yeah, and I'm not waking you up again. I have homework to do."

"Need any help?" She asked.

"Nope. I'm good."

In the time I've known her, I've also learned that she's literally a genius. Math is easy for her, and English is cake. She knows history like she's lived through it, and same goes for science. The woman was the smartest person I'd ever met. She make education look easy, and it infuriated her teachers whom always thought she was ignoring them and sleeping.

"Go have a bath then?" I offered.

"You know what... yeah I think I will." She nodded and wandered off upstairs.

I finished up my homework and tossed it in my bag before throwing that over to the door. I then leaned back and turned on Netflix where I watched the first thing on my recommended list which was just some random horror movie.

As I was watching, Nyx crept up behind me and put both her hands around my neck causing me to scream out and jump up away form her.

She laughed hysterically and I groaned before a smile touched my lips. "You're a fucking ass hole." I told her.

"I scared the shit out of you! Admit it!"

"Of course you did! I'm watching a horror film and you pretended to choke me out you dick!" I laughed.

She was standing behind the couch in nothing but a towel. Hair was down at her shoulders, and soaked like she barely bothered to dry it off.

She was pretty. I'll give her that.

"Go get dressed you crazy broad." I waved her off as I sat back down on the couch. She laughed and headed upstairs to her bedroom, coming down a bit later where she plopped down on the couch, putting her feet up on my lap before yawning.

"Don't get comfy you have class."

"I think I might skip it." She confessed.

"You skipped the last one. Get up." I pushed her feet off getting her to groan.

"I don't want to go. It's lame."

"Are you twelve? Get moving!" I pushed her forwards and she stood up with a groan before collecting her things. "Did you do your homework?"

"Yeah." She yawned. "I do it everyday because if I don't you don't let me sleep." She slung her backpack over her shoulder. "I'm heading out. Cya later tonight."
