So the study sessions are going really well and I was extremely prepared for the following classes. What am I going to do after Romeo and Juliet?? I guess I'll just have to find another excuse to hang out with him...
Our test on the whole book is Thursday and I'm really dreading it but Marcel thinks I'm prepared. Right now I'm in algebra class and these penguins she has all over her walls are starting to really creep me out. Just 2 more minutes and its lunch time.
"Does everyone understand?" My dreadful teacher asks.
...no response...
"Good." I roll my eyes at how pitiful she is... And after what seems like forever the bell rings
'YES! FINALLY!!' I think silently to myself as I get out of my desk and catch up to Marcel who is already headed up to the roof for lunch.
"Aren't you glad that's over?'
"Extremely" he says with a chuckle pushing his glasses up to keep them from falling. That's when a tall, muscular jock with a football jacket walks up to Marcel and shoves him into the lockers making all of his books he was carrying fall to the ground.
"Watch where you are going you little twerp!" He says and keeps walking with three people following behind snickering, two of them I recognize as Zayn and Niall from my first day here.
"Who the hell are they?" I ask helping Marcel back to his feet.
"No one.. Anyway, the Romeo and Juliet test is tomorrow and we have one final study session tonight, so make sure your ready to work" he says like nothing even happened so I decide to just ignore what just happened.
"Oh I will, I have to past this test!"
"You'll pass.. Because you have me" he says with a cheeky smirk on his face.
"Oh so if I didn't have you, I would fail?!" I say as I follow him up the stairs that lead to our spot on the roof.
"Yep, because I know everything.." He says pointing to his brain.
"Oh we'll see about that"

After work I head straight to Marcel's place to study. I have all of my books, study guides, and everything else I could possibly use. I even drank a redbull to keep me awake through work so I'd be ready to study extremely hard tonight. When I knock on the door I hear his familiar voice through the door... But it's not the familiar 'Marcel voice' if you will, it's the voice I hear when he's at home... when I know he's being himself.
"Who is it?" The raspy almost sexy voice calls
"Ally!" I yell back.
"It's open!!" He calls so I open the door to walk in and find Marcel in the kitchen.
"Hey, did u eat yet?" He says stirring a pot of what looks like pasta and may I say it smells heavenly in here.
"Nope... Not yet"
"Oh good, I made dinner!!" He says proudly setting the pot of pasta in the center of the table.
"You didn't have to do that..." I say thinking of the trouble he went through just to make dinner.
"Yes I did, mans gotta eat" he says rubbing his stomach... Oh god. YOUR SO STUPID ALLY! He made it for himself and I just happened to be here... Awkward.
Through dinner we review Romeo and Juliet, not your ideal conversation when your having dinner with a guy but I don't mind it.
"So I have big plans for our studying tonight...."
"And what is that?" I say helping him clean up from dinner. He leaves and comes back with a movie in his hand handing it to me, Romeo and Juliet.
"Oh, wow..I was not expecting this!"
"I knew you wouldn't be expecting it, you were probably thinking I would make you write an essay or some crazy shit." He says laughing and I decide to just laugh along knowing that was EXACTLY what I was thinking.
"Here I'll put this in the tv and you can go change into some comfy clothes." He says looking at my work uniform I'm still wearing from earlier.
"Um, I didn't bring clothes to change into so ill just stay in this, but you can go change is you like." I say referring to his pants and sweater.
"Oh no, don't be so silly.. You can just wear some of my clothes." He says walking back to his room and I'm not sure if I should follow him or not so I decide to just stay put. He soon comes back in sweatpants that hang low on his hips just enough for me to see the rim of his Calvin Klien boxers and a white V-neck.
"Here" he says handing me a t-shirt and sweatpants. "The bathrooms the first door on the right"
"Thank you" I say taking the clothes from his hand and heading to the bathroom. His bathroom is very plain, nothing special, is it weird that I'm checking out his bathroom?? Oh stop Ally! And that's when a knock on the door interrupts my thoughts.
"Hey, do you want me to make some popcorn??" I chuckle at his qwerkiness
"No thank you, I'm fine!" I tell him
"Suit yourself.." I can tell he's smirking by the tone in his voice.
When I walk back into the living room he's sitting on the couch with a bowl of popcorn in his lap.
"Hurry up! It just started!" He says motioning to the spot next to him. So I sit next to him watching Romeo and Juliet. Romeo kinda looks like a young Zach Efron in this movie! Ha! And that's the last thing I remember as the caffeine from my red bull starts to wear off and I drift off to sleep.
When I wake there's a blanket drapped over Marcel and I and I'm snuggled up to him, still on the couch where I must have fallen asleep last night. I look up to see Marcel who is still sleeping next to me. I take time to admire his beautiful features, his perfect jawline, his slow breathing, how he looks so much better with no glasses, and how his hair looks sexy pushed back and curly instead of slicked with gel. And that's when I feel him stir underneath me.
"Goodmorning beautiful." He says in a groggy morning voice and I chuckle and blush before I realize that it's Thursday... And we are both supposed to be at school, taking that test...
