"Are you cheating off of me again, Henry?"

"I don't know what you're talking about, you're cheating off of me."

"How can I be cheating off of you? You're on number 11 and I'm on 15! I can't copy what you dont have!"

"Hey Kylee, do you have an Instagram?"

"Maybe. Why?"

"Could I get it so we can compare answers on the study guide?"

"Um, I mean sure, I guess."

She took out a piece of paper and wrote down her username and handed it to him. He looked it over and made sure he actually knew what it said (because for some reason people can't read her handwriting even thought there's nothing wrong with it) and turned back to her to ask what it said.

"Well obviously it says k.m.foster. Duh," she replied sarcastically. It was practically her first language.

"Well I'm sorry I can't read your handwriting," he shot back.

"Maybe you just need glasses, Henry."

It seemed as though every time they were together, they were drawn to each other. Always bickering without actually arguing, and using their scores on previous assignments against each other.

"At least I didn't get 54 out of 55."

Case and point.

"You know what?" She replied.

And the conversation dwindled from there.

A ding filled the room notifying Kylee that she had received a notification. She sat up on her bed and opened the source of the notification: Instagram.

He actually added me wow

This could go so many different ways

He probably just wants to compare answers though

Best not get my hopes up...

And with that final thought she accepted his friend request and added him back.

Shoot I should have waited a minute, now I'm going to look desperate.

Oh well can't do anything about it now.

Only a few short minutes after adding him back, he dm'd her.

H: hey so what did you get on the first page?
K: image sent
H: image sent
H: this is what I got
H: how'd you get 102??
H: are you wrong or am I wrong??
K: im never wrong 😂
K: um actually I really think it was you. you were supposed to divide by 2 and then subtract 4 but you subtracted 14
H: ahh shoot you're right
K: haha told ya
H: hey whatever, I did the rest of it right
K: yeah ok sure Henry 😁

Left on read, Kylee let out an agrivated puff of air but couldn't help it when a smile slowly crept onto her face.
