Ro's POV

The past few days had been, awkward, I suppose is the proper word. I spent all of Saturday holed up in my room watching old TV show reruns in my pajamas. When everyone came over on Sunday, I kinda just made the food and let them fend for themselves while I went back to my room, just in case, Harry decided to show up. Even though we hadn't discussed it, most of his friends were coming so there was a high chance he would have joined them, but I did not want to stick around and find out.

Today was a little bit tricky. For the past week we had been meeting up every morning, so I wasn't sure if that was a standing thing or just a one time thing. I was going to text him to ask, but then I realized, I didn't have his number, and even if I did, I wouldn't know what to ask him. I thought about texting, Liam, but I didn't. Instead I paced around our usual meeting place until the bell rang.

As I listened to our stupid professor give his lesson, I distracted myself with a few doodles in my notebook instead of taking notes. The screen on my phone lighting up was what finally caught my attention. I picked it up, seeing I had a text from, Liam, which was odd since he was sitting right next to me.

Liam: Are you feeling, okay?

Me: Yeah. I'm fine, why?

Liam: You just seem a little off, and you sorta bailed yesterday...

Me: Just wasn't feeling well, I'm fine, now.

Liam: Good, Cal and Ron in charge was not something pretty!

I let out a slight laugh at just the thought of them two being in charge.

"Ms. Monroe," Professor Williams raised his voice. "No cell phones in class."

"Says who?" I challenged with a raised eyebrow, not bothering to look up from my phone as I text, Liam back. I know it was a little rude of me, but I knew exactly what was coming my way. I wasn't the only student that used their phone in class, he just wanted a reason to pick on me.

"Says me," he sorta yelled. I could just picture his face turning red.

"Well," I smiled, finally looking up as I sent out my text. "You should have put that in the syllabus then, huh?"

A few of the students chuckled, including, Liam. The only one that was giving me a warning look was, Jesse who was at the front of the class just shaking his head at me. I knew I should stop, not only because I was being rude, but I felt myself getting too angry. I felt like my entire body was on fire.

"Monroe, I have had enough of you, you don't even know what the lesson was about, and if you can't-"

I cut him off, reciting his lecture, word for word as I looked him dead in the eyes. I knew he was getting pissed, but so was I. The only thing that cut me off was the sound of the bell, ending the class.

Like everyone else, I quickly gathered my things and left that damn classroom, getting as far away from there as I possibly could. Once I felt I was far enough, I rested my back against a wall, taking deep breaths, I couldn't tell what was wrong with me, but I felt that familiar ringing in my ears as well as the head spin and nausea.

"Hey,"a slight muffled version of, Liam's voice filled my ears. "What was that? It was amazing, you just-"

"Eidetic memory at it's finest," I informed him, slightly out of breath.
