Y/n POV
I had just gotten to the library, I put my bag down as I found a seat my near the window, I look at the time on my phone followed by the clock ticking, slowly. It was 2pm on the dot. I mean he should be here but maybe he wants to be fashionable late.
I open my textbook and start to read, at least I should make up for the time I was alone to learn. That's when I hear laughing coming from the corner. I immediately look up to see Brandon and a group of his jock friends with some cheerleaders.
I roll my eyes as Brandon and I make eye contact. It's funny how I have to sit here and wait for him to show up. But he can come whenever he wants with whom ever he wants.
He walks up to me as I continue to pretend like I didn't notice him but I clearly did.
B: Hey
He says softly standing on the other side of the desk, his hands gripping the chair in front of him as I slowly look up at him. He was smiling but I wasn't having it
Y/n: Your late
I respond as he pulls on one of the chairs from in front of me to take seat.
B: What no hey, how are you, how's your day
He states as I muffle
Y/n: I was waiting for around a half n hour. Look I understand you don't wanna be here, and you might have other places to be; but that makes two of us. You need to pass the midterm and I need the extra credit. I'm here on time so it would be amazing if just for two weeks you can show up and learn
I state clearly annoyed, he innocently looks at me
B: Ok relax
He answers as I took a deep breath.
Y/n: So I highlighted the sections you need to know for the midterm
He nods as I slid him my textbook, he didn't really say anything and I kinda felt bad for what I said but it was the truth.
I start typing out something for another class as I look over at him. He was flipping through the pages with a face full of confusion
Y/n: Is everything okay
I ask in a calmer tone this time
B: Yeah, actually I don't really understand
I exhale as I look at him feeling bad maybe he did need my help
Y/n: Can I ask you a question??
He nods looking into my eyes
B: Sure
Y/n: Why are you in this class if your not interested
I ask as he fixes his glasses
B: it's not that I'm not interested it's just that I'm stressed. This year many recruiters are coming to the game. I could be picked for any team to play state. But I need to pass this freakin test to play.
I nod understanding his concern
Y/n: Well, maybe if you tried to focus on the methods being taught you'll understand. You know what I always do. I make flashcards and quizzes to test myself. And then I know the content
I explain as he nods understanding what I was saying
B: But what if I'm not good enough I mean it's political science its honestly kinda boring
He pouts
Y/n: I guess that's why I'm helping you right?? and I'm sure all you need to do is focus
