The urge to roll my eyes was strong, but I refrained from

doing so. “You have Advanced Calculus next, right?” I

asked, switching the subject.

I usually loved to join in on the teasing, but I wasn’t in

the mood today. Waking up late had made me a tad

grumpier. My knee was sore and ached every time I took a

step – a constant reminder of how amazing my morning had

been so far. Grumpy Lila was no fun.

Riley looked thoughtful for a second. “Yeah. I do,” she

responded after a long second. “You?”

“English. We have twenty minutes before our classes

start.”

“I actually need to see my teacher before class. Did I

mention I hate math? Yeah, I probably did a hundred times.

We have a test next week, and I’m pretty sure I’m going to

flunk it.” Riley’s normal cheerfulness disappeared, and her

brows tensed with a frown. She looked deeply saddened for

a moment, but just as quickly, her expression changed, and

she was back to happy Riley once again. “I’ll see you at

lunch?”

I grabbed her hand before she could leave. “If you want,

I can help you this weekend with Calculus.”

She smiled brightly, her whole face shining like the

moon. “Really? Thank you, babe. How about we talk more

about it at lunch? We can pick a time and place.”

“Sounds good to me.” I let her hand go, and she waved

before running through the gates.

I looked down at my phone. Fifteen minutes until my

next class. It was enough time for me to grab an iced latte.

Perfect. Maybe sugar would help my mood.

The coffee shop was only a few feet away, sitting right

next to the campus. It was pretty much only visited by the

students of Berkshire. It wasn’t lunch yet, so when I walked

in, the shop was fairly quiet. I ordered myself an iced latte

with extra whip cream and went to stand next to the heater.
