The whole class begins to talk to their partner while I go over to Mr Webb to confirm what I heard WASN'T true, "Um Sir, is it okay if you could read my pairing again please?".
"Alex Sharpe & Sophia Collins" He reads, confirming the thing I didn't want him to say.
"Would it be okay if I could swap with someone?" I ask him.
"Why is that?" Mr Webb asks me.
"We don't exactly get along so well..." I say reluctantly.
"Then consider this task a way to be able to tolerate Alex" He smiles.
"But—"
"No buts Sophia, if you continue to argue with me, I will award you a F for this project".
"Okay" I say quietly. I turn back and I walk forward when I walk into somebody, Alex. He places his hands on my waist to prevent me from falling.
"You seriously are blind aren't you?" Alex asks me. I can't work out if he's in a good mood or a bad mood.
"I am not" I say to him.
"So you just look for opportunities for just touch me and admire my sexiness?".
"In your bloody dreams, Sharpe" I say as I remove myself from his grasp.
"So I've gathered your name is Sophia?".
"Well aren't you a genius?" I say sarcastically.
"Hey I don't exactly want to work with you either, and I'm trying to be nice, but it won't take me very long to be obnoxious to you again" He says in a serious tone.
"We need to plan out what we're going to do, let's go over there" I smile falsely and point to a spare table. For once, Alex doesn't say anything and quietly follows me. HALLELUJAH!
We sit on a table, Alex opposite me, I pull out my pencil case and my notebook. I write 'Ideas' in the middle of the page so I could make a mind map.
"Do you have any ideas?" I ask him.
"Babe, hotties like me don't have ideas, we just let others do the work and we take credit for it in the end" He says, so proud of himself.
"Well you're obviously delusional because I'm not going to let you do that".
"Why Princess?".
"Because it's not fair on me".
"I don't care" He smirks.
"Then I guess I won't care when I tell Mr Webb and get you removed from this class" I tell him.
He moves over the table until he wasn't very far away from me. "You won't do that" He whispers, his hot breath tickling my ear.
"W-why is that?" I ask him, words unable to come out of my mouth.
"Because you won't" He moves back to where he originally was.
"Then you better do some work" I say firmly.
"I can't do this here" He says.
"What do you mean you can't do this here, I'm not telling you to have sex with me".
"Well if that's what's on your mi—".
"NO" Okay I admit, I dug myself a hole there.
"I can't work in class, I prefer working elsewhere".
"Where's elsewhere?" I ask worriedly.
"My dorm" He says quickly with a huge grin on his face.
"NO! No no no no no no no".
"Come on, I hate working in class dorm, I simply won't help you".
"But I have—".
"Excuses excuses. My dorm. 8pm. Tomorrow" He tells me.
"What about your dorm number?".
"You'll just have to ask someone, see you tomorrow doll" He stands up.
"Wait where are you going?".
"I've got a girl waiting, don't wanna be late" He winks.
"You're so ew" I say to him.
"Right back at ya" Once he says that, he walks out of the class and I'm left all alone.

I go to maths and it was really boring, we were doing Pythagoras' Theorem. I think it's quite easy but what does Pythagoras actually have to do with accounting? The answer? NOTHING!
I go straight to my dorm and I have a nap for an hour or so when I get a text from Hannah, 'How was class today?'
'It was really shit, we have to do an event and guess who I got paired with?'
'NO WAY'
'Yes way'
'Lol man that is actually pretty funny ngl'
'No it is not, he is so annoying and lazy, he left class halfway through'
'Ooooo what a bad boy'
'No and the worst part is I have to go to his dorm tomorrow evening, so we can start this project'.
'OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGG NO WAYYYYYYYYY Why don't you just bring him to your dorm?'
'And risk Tyler finding out? NO THANKS'
'Do you wanna go out and eat?'
'No I'm sorry Boo, I've got homework to complete and I need to at least start this stupid project'.
'Okay then have fun xx'
