The room goes silent, they stare at the teacher as if she was crazy, at that moment they really thought she was.

"I'm serious, Brady Fitz goes to the office," Mrs. Perri hands him a note, "go to the office and ask them to change your schedule immediately." The class keeps looking at the teacher. Brady grabs his stuff and leaves with his head down low.

"Gray she wasn't joking..."

"yea, Ms. Perri is hardcore."

They stay to their whisper voices. They crouch down to the desk and lean in so they don't have to be loud. He smells so good. Rho starts to blush. She can feel her face heating up.

" Who are you going against?" Rho asked

"This girl, Chelsea she's going to be easy." He replies.

Rho calculates in her head, she will be on Friday and next Tuesday. Grey is tomorrow and Thursday.

"your turn is tomorrow, Grey," Rho whispers to grey.

"okay thanks" he whispers back. Ms. Perri said out loud

"These 'test' will be on 6th and 7th-grade material. You are in the mathlympic team, you should know this material. 20 will "survive" the others will be kicked out."


"hey, do you want to study? What period is your study hall?" Grey asks her looking at her. With his green ember eyes. Rho stares straight at greys eyes and zones out.

"Rho!"

"Yea! Um, 7th period."

"Okay meet me at the library at the table near the back."

"umm okay."

Afterwards, they sit there and wait. Ms. Perri calls out the next tournament group.

"Okay, Sylvia and Cole come on and grab your ready so we can go quickly!"

Rho watches as Ms. Perri writes the problem on the board and takes notes. 10 minutes pass and I zoned out being brought back again by Ms. Perri telling Sylvia to leave and to not to come back. Ms. Perri continues to call out students. Ms. Perri says out loud with a stern tone, " Tomorrow we will continue to drop students by next Friday we will be down to 3-15 students," she pauses and the class is stunned. Even one boy choked on his water and was coughing like crazy. Ms. Perri continues, " Don't worry at the very least 5 in class. Once again 20 will stay out of 2 periods. Afterward, I'll change everybody schedule so all of you guys will be in one class period. Tomorrow we'll continue class dismissed."

Today is just a regular day. So 7th period will be my study period. Afer 6th period, I'm heading to the upstairs library. I stop by the café before I go. I grabbed my latte, I also grab something for Grey. I grabbed him a brownie and also a latte. It was around $15 but it was worth it. When I'm looking for my wallet my glasses start to fall. Fucking glasses I shoulda fixed them when I could've. i push up my glasses and look up with a ten and a five in my hand.

"Ohhi Gracie, how's middle school?"
