Aubrey, Beca, Flo and Emily are all in Science, they were working in groups making posters about a recent experiment they'd just done, but the girls were getting a little annoyed because there didn't seem to be enough room on the A3 piece of paper for everything they'd written.

"Let's just take it all off and start again" Beca suggested.

"Come on, we haven't written anymore, than anyone else, yet we're struggling" Aubrey spoke.

"Beca, Aubrey stop a second. Look, put the title in the top left and work around it. We need the middle space" Emily suggested.

"Alright, let's see how that can go"

"I'll just cut more borders out" Flo said.

A couple more minutes had passed and the girls were still trying to cram everything on the poster.

"Why did you have to be so detailed Aubrey? It's a poster, no one's going to read it all. We need it to stand out, not be too informative"

"I tried Beca, believe it or not, this is half the size"

"Jeez dude, how stressful can one poster be"

"Stressful enough that this year actually counts, you can't just scrape by anymore"

"What the hell Aubrey? That was uncalled for and you know it"

"Well it's true, it's not our fault you're just trying now"

"That shouldn't make a difference or not. Other group projects I've helped, they've just never been this stressful. It's a poster, not a 2,000 word fricking essay. Well it may as well be by the amount you've written"

"Guys, guys come on, look. Flo and I will sort it, you just cut out what we need"

"There see, how's that?"

"Actually, good Em, plus we have room to draw too"

"Beca we don't have time for you to spend over an hour being all artistic. This needs to be handed in and Flo is still writing"

"I'll be quick, I promise"

"You have 5 minutes, draw something and if it's good, we'll border it and stick"

"Dude I take Art, pretty sure I can handle this. I need a cigarette after this"

"You always need a cigarette after Science" Aubrey eye rolled.

"Correction, I need a cigarette after every lesson"

"But we have double Science, unless you ask to go to the toilet, again?" Emily spoke sarcastically.

"Alright, someone's been around Beca waaay too long" Aubrey said.

"Tell me about it. Who'd have thought you'd know sarcasm"

"I know a great deal, I've dealt with your small ass for years" Emily chuckled.

"Touché, but, I'm not small"

*Ping*

"That'll be one of the girls, someone see what they want" Aubrey said.

"And what about you? You have a phone too, Posen"

"Yes, but I don't want to risk getting my phone out, come on Beca"

"Why me?"

"You ALWAYS have your phone out"

"Huh, got me there"

Girl's Chat

Stacie (09:56) – @Beca?

"Who was it?"

"Stacie, she tagged me"

"Why doesn't she just message you, directly. What does she want?"

"I don't know, why don't you ask her?"

"I don't use my phone in lessons. Shouldn't she be in lesson anyway?"

"Posen just ask her, not me, I don't know"

"Just reply to her"

"Eurgh, you're doing my head in, Aubrey"

Beca (09:56) – @Stacie?

Stacie (09:56) – Come to the loos by you, I left my lighter in class, please?

Beca (09:56) – Yeah, but why don't you just go back and get your back, just say you're on your period or something?"

Chloe (09:57) – Someone got sent out and can't go back just yet.

Stacie (09:57) – Thanks Chloe tell everyone in the group!

Beca (09:57) – What for now?

Stacie (09:58) – Stupid sub.

Fat Amy (09:58) – Mouthed to new teacher. Disagreement, being taught something we don't know. She asked the rest of the class, we all stuck up for her, he didn't like it, ergo, she gets sent out.

Stacie (09:58) – Thanks Ame. Anyway, Mitchell you coming or not?

Beca (09:59) – Yeah, two secs, plus Posen's doing my head in.

Stacie (09:59) – Nothing new there then, besides we all know you love her

Chloe (10:00) – That's your best friend you're talking about, girls

Beca (10:00) – I've had her being bossy all lesson. Hell, she was even telling me to ask Stacie why she didn't just directly message me.

Chloe (10:01) – Seriously?

Emily (10:01) – Yeah she was, I was shocked, she's normally telling Beca or shouting/whispering for her to get off it.

Chloe (10:01) – I'm shocked. Anyway, see you girls in an hour, have fun!

Beca got back in her class, she wasn't out for long and just blamed in on stomach cramps.

"You were quicker that I thought you were gonna be" Aubrey said.

"Well I was just giving her a lighter, I had one, sprayed and came back. Doesn't take long"

"Sometimes you and Stace are gone for ages"

"Someone tracking us, or more her, are we?" Beca winked.

"Oh, be quiet, just help"

"I thought Em and Flo had the poster under control"

"We did, but Aubrey didn't like it" Flo said.

"Why doesn't that surprise me. Right, come on girls"

30 minutes later...
