JaDine Oneshot & Drabbles Collection 2

Seatmates (AU)

AN: AU of JaDine and friends as high school students 😊 (drabbles format)

NADINE

Nadine sighed looking at her new seat. 

They always changed sitting arrangement after every semestral break, but it was her first time sitting at the back of the room. 

It was already hard to concentrate in front, as she was always tired because of her part time work, and always feels sleepy.

But since she was in front before, she could urge herself to stay awake… now what will she do?

Nadine heard a sigh beside her.

She looked around to see James, her new seatmate. It looks like he wasn’t happy with being at the back either.

Nadine gave him a smile in consolation.

James smiled in surrender, and nodded.

JAMES

James was trying hard to concentrate. Why is it that from back there, the board felt sooo far away?

And it was as if it goes farther away as the clock ticked.

Their teacher's voice was soft as well… It’s really hard to concentrate.

He looked around and saw that Bret was actually already asleep. He sighed. He needs to concentrate. He didn’t want to be like Bret.

"James... James…”

He looked at his side to see Nadine with her hands holding both her eyes open.

He fought a chuckle. She looks so cute trying to fight off sleep.

“Pinch me please, James? I can’t hold on for much long.” Nadine said placing her right hand beside James’s left.

“Pinch you??” James asked, surprised.

“Please? So I’ll be more awake…” Nadine pleaded.

James sighed and pinched Nadine though he only gave it a little pressure.

“James, I didn’t feel that at all…”

“I don’t want to hurt you…” James tried to say.

“You won’t hurt me.”

James sighed once more and do as he was told. This time he nipped Nadine’s hand. He saw her flinched, and inwardly he flinched as well.

“Thanks.” Nadine said. “Want me to pinch you?”

Again, James fought a chuckle.

“Yeah, sure.”

ANDREA

Andrea heard Nadine's twinkling laugh and reflexively looked at her back.

Surely Nadine was laughing and besides her, James was pouting.

Nadine notice her gaze and address her, still giggling a bit.

"Andrea, do you have any candy?" She asked.

"Candy? Wait, I think I have some mints here." She said, opening her bag and looking for her candy.

She randomly gave Nadine two.

"Thank you!" She chirped. "James's tummy is growling." She said, giggling some more.

Andrea just smiled in welcome.

JUDE

Jude was bored. It was their free period but everyone was busy doing their seatwork for math.
