She was late. She should've known she was late just by how the light hit her face as she woke up.She stretched, thinking her clock said 6:30. Her head then snapped back to the clock, where her blurred vision became clear, and read it out to herself. "8:30...Shit." Santana cursed under her breath as she rushed to get ready. She knew that her parents would kill her if they knew that she couldn't be bothered to get up at the right time when they were out of town. School had started an hour and a half ago. She quickly put on her Cheerio's cold gear and uniform, forgetting to grab a jacket as she walked out into the freezing cold. She didn't exactly care at the moment, and she knew she wouldn't later, because Sue would definitely warm her up, but she wanted to go back in and grab one. "Maybe I have one in my car." Santana slurred, her toothbrush still in her mouth. She spit as she got into her Barcelona Red Corolla, not bothering to pick up her toothbrush from the lawn, and she sped out of her driveway, on her way to school. "Fucking A..." Santana cursed again as she felt for her phone and it wasn't there. "Fine. Fine, I'll go without it." Santana urged herself to go forth without her phone. "What the hell? I don't even like school." Santana murmured to herself as she U-turned around to get her phone. She rushed inside, grabbing her phone, but again forgetting the Cheerios jacket. "FUCK!" She yelled, slamming on the pedal. She was 40 miles over the speed limit, but she didn't care, as long as she didn't get pulled over. Much to her demise, she saw a police car behind her. She clenched her teeth together, pulling to the sidewalk.
The time was now 8:55, and if Santana was any later, she'd miss her open notebook exam, and she'd have to take it without her notes. And she'd be damned if she ever took a Chem exam without her notes. After noticing that the policeman was taking forever to get out of his vehicle, she burst out herself, running to the window of HIS car. "Listen. No disrespect or anything, but I'm in a hurry."
"I didn't ask for your life story." Santana had to bite back her tongue. She wouldn't get arrested. She glanced at her watch- thirty minutes until her Chemistry exam. "Do you know that you were speeding?"
"Yeah. I was in a hurry. Sorry. Here, just ticket me, I'll pay for it later." The policeman eyed her strangely.
"Why aren't you in school?"
"That's why i'm in a hurry." Santana quickly replied. The police officer still refused to believe her.
"I wan't born yesterday, young lady." I'm sure, Santana thought, despite the fact that it'd probably get her arrested.
"Listen. You can follow me. I don't even care." Santana said, taking the ticket that was being handed to her. The police officer nodded and Santana rushed to her car. The time was now 9:15. She had 15 minutes to get to school and take her Chemistry exam.
She got to school at 9:20, signed in at 9:25. She ran to her locker, completely flustered, and she tore it apart searching for her Chemistry notes. "Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, FUCK!" Santana whispered to herself. She looked down the hallways, desperate for someone in her class. She finally laid her eyes upon Rachel. She didn't care at the moment, though. She had 3 minutes to get to the opposite side of the school and take her exam, and she needed notes. "RACHEL! Rachel, STOP!" Santana yelled, sprinting towards Rachel's locker. Rachel looked completely flustered. "Rachel, please, I'll do anything if you give me your chemistry notes. Please." Rachel calmly took her notes from her locker, but held them back for a second.
"You'll do anything?" Santana nodded feverishly. "Okay. I have a favor. Meet me in the auditorium after school." Santana nodded once more. "Say it."
"OKAY! Okay Rachel, I'll meet you there! Just PLEASE let me use your notes!" Santana glanced at her clock. 2 minutes. As the notes were handed to her, Santana was overcome with joy, and she leapt forward and hugged Rachel, kissing her on the cheek. "Thankyouthankyouthankyou!" Santana then smiled and waved as she burst through the halls. One minute. She finally got to the classroom, and as soon as she walked in, the bell rang. She looked fine, but her mind was a mess. She wasn't in peak condition to take this exam, but she would anyways. She even smiled as she was given the test.
1) What is one example of a Binary compound?
"The fuck is a Binary compound?" Santana mouthed to herself as she flipped through Rachel's notes. They were extremely organized, and they even smelled like Rachel, which was nice. She found her answer in a heartbeat.
Calcium Chloride.
The rest of the exam was a breeze thanks to Rachel's notes. There were some questions that she wouldn't have even gotten if she had used her own notes. Whatever Rachel's favor was, Santana would be happy to oblige.
