It was raining the next day. As if everything else in the world didn't already suck, it also had to rain.
I was in a foul mood as it was. Alexis had called me last night, begging to get back together. Why? God if I knew--I had cheated on her after all. Either way, she didn't take my rejection well, and spent nearly 4 hours repeatedly calling and texting me.
And now, as I made my way to Physics, not only did I feel her angry glare on my back--I was also wet. I hated being wet.
"Morning," Newt greeted, once again, during Physics. Against my better judgement, I looked up. My eyes widened when I saw how wet he was, and I almost felt guilty for complaining at all.

Instead of laughing, I rolled my eyes. "Have you ever heard of an umbrella? It's this nifty device that stops the rain--"
Newt didn't seem to be offended by my blatant sarcasm. He laughed and replied, "Look, we've only got one umbrella at my house and my aunt needed it more than I did."
Before I could say anything more, class began and Newt turned his attention to Miss Jane.
