ADRIANNA ARLETTE CARVALHO tuesday, june 23rd harlem high school ━━ 10:55 am
in the dimly lit classroom of their tenth grade american history class, adrianna and notti found themselves nestled in the back row, a cozy corner they often claimed as their own.
adrianna, always the nurturing type, sat comfortably on notti's lap, her textbook balanced precariously on her knees as she listened intently to the teacher's lecture.
meanwhile, notti, with his head resting gently against adrianna's chest, struggled to keep his eyes open. the rhythmic cadence of the teacher's voice had lulled him into a state of drowsiness, and try as he might, he found himself slipping further into sleep with each passing moment.
" ethan, baby, are you even awake?" adrianna whispered, poking him gently in the side.
notti stirred slightly, his eyelids fluttering as he tried to focus. " mmm... yeah, i'm awake," he murmured, his voice muffled by adrianna's chest.
adrianna couldn't help but chuckle softly at notti's predicament, her fingers absentmindedly tracing soothing circles on his back.
" you're so sleepy, ethan," she teased, leaning in close to him. " did you not sleep well last night?" she asked, hints of concern laced in her voice.
notti let out a sheepish chuckle, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. " nah, i slept like a baby," he told her. " it's prolly because i went to sleep late," he admitted, a hint of guilt in his voice.
adrianna rolled her eyes playfully. " because you were up playing video games," she added, giving him a playful nudge. " next time, try to get some sleep, okay? you'll never make it through the day like this,"
notti only subtly nodded his head. " yeah, you right, addy," he admitted. " i can sleep, doe?" he inquired, looking up at her.
" mhm," she hummed, nodding her head.
she watched as notti drifted off into a peaceful slumber. adrianna glanced down at him, a fond smile tugging at her lips as she watched him sleep.
she knew he had been up late playing video games, and she couldn't bring herself to wake him again, not when he looked so peaceful.
as the lecture continued, the teacher's voice growing louder and more animated, adrianna felt a tap on her shoulder. she turned to see the teacher glaring down at them, a disapproving frown etched on his face.
" miss carvalho, mr. reyes, this is a classroom, not a nap room," the teacher scolded, his voice sharp with irritation. " i won't tolerate such behavior in my class. either sit properly and listen or leave,"
