As I walked alone in the hallway, I looked back down at my clock. 0:00:00:10. Ten seconds! Oh, my. I continued to walk in the hallway, only a little faster. Suddenly the bell rang, and I was late for class. So i continued to speed up until I was running up the steps to my locker's hallway.

You wanna ditch the rest of the day?" He held out his hand when he stood back up. We were allowed to take a few days off when we met our Match.
