Acquaintances[ON HOLD]

Study buddy

********* Hero's POV*******

It's been two weeks since school has started and for the most part I'm settling in. Zac and I of course have hit up the parties and man are they much better than high school parties ever were. I love having Zac as a roommate,we have the best time. We play video games,talk about all the girls we see on campus and other guy stuff.

I admit though I was not prepared for the amount of work and studying that is involved in college classes.
We have this huge essay due in geography in two weeks and I don't know how to even start it. I'm so lost. Like professor said this easy will be 25% of our overall grade. Isn't it early in the semester to start giving such massive assignments out. It seems like it. It should be against the law. I can't even focus in class right now I'm so worried about that stupid essay. The only reason I even realize class is over is because I feel Josephines book bag brush my leg as she grabs it.

"Oh sorry" Jo states as she finishes up packing her bag.

"It's ok" I respond

Josephine and I have continued to sit by each other in class these past two weeks. The class is 3x a week,so I've seen her for a total of 6 times but we both get to class early so we always seem to find something to talk about before class starts. I've noticed she really attentive in class and she doesn't seem to struggle much when we've had our daily two question quiz.

Maybe I should ask her for help?? Would she even want to help me? We've never meet up outside of class ever,would it be awkward?

Oh what the hell I need the help

Just before she's about to leave the classroom I tell our her name,which of course bring attention to us....way to go Hero that was just stupid.

"Um let's walk and talk yeah?" I ask her as she looks at me questionly

"Um sure" Jo says very unsure

"So um do you have any idea what the professor is talking about in this class?" I ask

"I mean for the most part yeah it's pretty simple.Why?" Jo states as we continue to walk

"I'm not one to normally admit this but I'm confused and lost. I need help. I'm terrified of the essay that's due in two weeks. It's 25% of our grade and I have no idea what I'm doing!" I ramble

"Ok....well first deep breaths.... and second I'll help you....I mean if that's what your asking...." she stutters

"Yes that's exactly what I'm asking...." I sigh in relief

"Ok so when do you want me to help you? Times kind of ticking." She says giving a half smile

"Um how about Thursday? We could meet at Smiths restaurant?" I ask not sure of how to set any of this up. I've never had to work with a "tutor" before.

"Thursday's good but are you sure you want to meet at Smiths? That place can kind of get loud and distracting." Jo asks

"Um yeah I'm sure that way we could eat while we study. We could always grab a table in the back part it's more quiet back there. My roommate Zac and I have been there lots already this year." I state. Zac and I like to go there to eat their wings and they have games such as pool and darts. It's almost a bar for underagers.

"Ok if you're sure that's where you want to go then sure." She sighs

"Ok um 7?"

"Sure"

"Ok I'll see you then. I have to run off to my next class" I say as I start to speed walk in the other direction.
