After the 'thing' that had happened between the two of you. Peter has been awfully distant, yet close at the same time. He talked less, you guys were not having the regular conversations as you used too. It seemed like he was avoiding you, almost.
Though, he always managed to be around you... Lurking, almost stalk-like manner. You've realized how stupid it was for him to follow you everywhere but didn't want to talk to you. You two had almost every class together.
So when AP science came, it was much more awkward because he was your partner, your tablemate.
There you were in class, sitting silently as you waited for your best friend to sit next to you.
He never showed up...
Instead, there was another person that came and sat next to you. It was Jake Morrison, a guy that didn't belong in AP classes, though no one was sure why he was even here.
Jake approached you as he took a seat with you. He had a big goofy smile on his face, staring at you like he was waiting for you to say something.
"O-oh, hey... You got the wrong table. Peter was supposed to sit here" You were timid around other guys, it was no surprise. The only guys that you could talk to was Peter and Ned, and they were nowhere to be seen. Well, Ned didn't take AP science, but you wondered where Peter was so that this dumb boy that was still staring at you stupidly could go away.
"Haha, funny right? Mrs. Tate swapped our seats and... Now I'm here! With you" Jake exclaimed excitedly, staring you with the never-ending enthusiasm.
"But we're not supposed to swap seats with each other for the whole year" You tried reasoning with him so that he will go back to his seat, but instead you heard the class door opened and Peter entered the class with a rather frustrated look on his face.
"Pete! Hey, come here!" You waved at him, a big smile on your face. Pete noticed you but instead, he looked away immediately, and he took a seat where Jake was supposed to be.
"What?" You asked yourself silently, a frowned had carved itself onto your lips. Jake tapped you on the shoulder as you turned your attention towards you.
"Hey, I know you're close with that guy or whatever. But Mrs.Tate wanted me to be partnered with you, because well... You're smart and maybe you could teach me a thing or two" You nodded understandingly, smiling at him. You didn't want to come across as rude, so maybe it was best if you just treat him nicely and then you'll go on with your life.
.
Jake had redeemed himself to be a quite funny guy, and you can't help but laugh and giggle at every witty remark that he had made. You were actually starting to slowly accept him as the time went on, he hasn't failed to make you not entertained by him and you were grateful that he had helped you go through AP Science.
