I think that every student can agree that one of the worst possible moments is when the teacher says, "Everyone pick a partner" and you have no friends in that class. 

So you have to quickly scan the room for your options, to see who's your best choice out of everyone. But then the panic sets in when you come to realize that you aren't social which means you have no friends which means you have no partner. So your gonna be the loser who has to raise their hand at the end so the teacher can pair you up.

You see though I rather die than be that person.

So I quickly look around the class again to make sure I didn't miss anyone, who am I kidding there's no one. Though low and behold I see a hooded figure sleeping on the desk. Scrunching my eyebrows trying to recognize who it is, and then my eyes widen.

YES!!! I'm not gonna be a loser!!!

I speedy Gonzales my stuff together and speed walk to my future partner, who hopefully won't reject me. I sit on the desk next to them trying to let them know I'm here. So I scoot my desk closer, but he doesn't walk up, then I tap my pencil on my desk and nothing, then I clear my throat and you guessed it nada.

Is this kid actually sleeping or ignoring me cause I'll admit I'm a little hurt. 

I finally accept defeat and sit there. I look around to see if there are any others, but to my luck, there isn't any.

"Okay, it looks like everyone has a partner. I'm gonna go partner by partner to see who's with who," the teacher smiles.

Looking at her smile makes me hate her more than what I already do because I feel like she taunting me or trying to embarrass me in front of everyone.

She starts from the front of the class and words her way back, thankfully we're the last ones.

"Damon," I whisper yell at him to wake him up.

The teacher quickly makes her way to the end and I'm trying to come up with something to say to not look like an idiot.

"Okay, the last two, who's your partner December?"

"Umm," I clear my throat, "You see it's-"

"-As you can see I am," Damon mutters finally getting up from his nap on his desk.

The teacher looks shocked, "Oh, well okay that's fine, just shocked because you usually work alone."

"Well as you can see she's with me. So can you move on with whatever we're supposed to be doing."

Wow! Now I know to never get on Damon'd nerves, well I mean I technically can't since I've never talked to him.

The teacher opens her mouth to say something, but quickly closes and resumes to which what she was saying, "Umm like I was gonna say, just work on this one piece of paper right now with your partner. If you have any questions feel free to ask me."

She moves away from the front of the class to her desk to take a seat and do whatever teachers do on their computer.

I turn to Damon, "So what are we going to do? Split up or how are we going to do this?"

I wait for a reply, but nothing comes so I look over to Damon and notice that he's back to sleeping on his desk.

"Okay then, "I mutter to myself, "Guess its just me."

I look at my paper and begin with the first question, 'What were UK's Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip given as a present for baby Prince Andrew while on a visit to the Gambia'?
