Seating Changes

*Andrew's POV*

All of this talking with Artemis is beginning to get to my head. It feels weird. I know that we have a truce. But really. I'm kinda mad still with her. She challenged me. N one does that. At least. They never did before. I never thought that that could ever happen to a person like me. I am used to being the top dog. Always having the power. The upper hand. Not just challenge me, but beat me! What the heck. A girl beat me. What is happening to my world. It is slowly crumbling down.

At School:

None of my friends were here yet so I just at the benches in front of Art's first class. When they finally showed up, I stared at them and asked, "What the hell took you guys so long. I bored."

"Gee sorry dude. Traffic was crazy." They told me. Whatever. That's bullshit. I didn't hit an ounce of traffic on my way. I forget sometimes that they come from like Long Beach. Whatever it's their problem not mine anyway. I am just trying to be a stick in the ass to them. We are friends after all. And plus. I just saw Artemis so I am trying to act all tough and shit. I do not really think that she cares. She would not even look twice at me. And heck. She would never date an asshole like me...

Gah! Why am I thinking all of this about her? She isn't my type. Too nice. Too sweet. I am just this bad person after all. I was sent here 'cause of it. Goddammit. I like her far too much.

We laughed our way down to the basketball courts as we discussed Art and me getting a truce. Honestly. It is a laughable situation. They were asking for all of the gossips about the two of us. I told them that there is absolutely nothing going on. Sadly it is that way. I like her but she would never give a fuck about it.

First Period:

Honestly, I never start a school day without worrying about something but today is just one of those days where my mind is full of concern. My teacher is super cool and stuff and since school started we have been able to sit wherever we want. That was under the condition that we sat in the same spot the whole time. So I have been sitting next to my new buddy Jared and Edward. Jared and I play basketball together in the morning. Edward. Well, I got no words for him. He and I are close. But not for the reason you think it is. I will not tell. At least not now. It is nothing serious anyway.

Our teacher walked outside holding a red clipboard and it had all of our names and photos. At least the ones that I think were from last year. Cause Jared does not have that haircut right now.

She began to place us into different seats. And sadly I was as far away from my friends as I could be. As I sat into my new seat in my mind I began mentally listening to Sad Boy by G-Eazy. As I listened to the song in my head m finger began to tap along my desk. Jared stared at me from across the room knowing exactly what I was doing his lips mouthed to me, "Drew I thought that you fucking hate that guy's music. Quit it.  You are going to get in trouble." I looked at him and began tapping my finger to a different beat. It was Travis Scott's song Goosebumps.

Third Period:

After my shock of changing seats in class, i wasn't the happiest when I went to my third period class. My teacher stood outside of the door and told us to hold onto our bags and to stand at the back of the room. Slowly he turned on the projector and a paper appeared on the board. It showed all of our seats and our names. All that I noticed is that it puts new seats. I was put into the first row. Right behind Artemis. At least I had Jared near by. Burrrr. My seat is super cold. It's almost freezing. I'm trying to tell my teacher that I'm cold and don't like my seat but he won't call on me. Nope. Not at all. When I finally got his attention I was so relieved. He had me and Artemis switch seats. I was relieved. I got out of the cold. I don't know why but she wanted to sit there.

Hey! I feel a tapping on my desk. What is that. A woodpecker?! Nah. They would be louder. I turn around and see Art happily tapping my desk. Almost to the beat of a song. She saw me look and all she said was "It's a Twenty Øne Piløts song. Hallelujah."

I turned back around highly annoyed with her behavior. I tried not to get mad at her.

Fourth Period:

When we returned to class, my teacher sat at his desk staring at a paper on his desk. He told us to sit in our desks but not to take anything out. He began by telling us a number. I was group one. In my group, I had Edward and Nagisa in my group oh and Noah. He's pretty chill honestly. Art is lucky, however. She has fucking Tamaki in her group. He's super smart. But I'm hotter than him. I don't think that she could ever fall for him. The dude is just an exchange student. He barely even speaks English and yet he has the best grades. I don't know what his issue is.

After telling us all of our groups he pressed a button that made this really annoying sound and we all set up our desks. I don't know what we are going to do, but it probably won't be too fun. I sat in my seat across the room from Art and all that I could do was stare at her. She seemed so happy with her group. Tamaki seemed happy too. I don't know why. It's weird. I think that he might like her. Hmmm.
