“Ever since I got back there’s something about fresh morning air that… just really makes me sick.”

“you know, I don’t really get the whole point of this “only nerds study on weekends” outlook. like what even is that? sorry that I’d rather be successful than be known as a slacker or a failure. some people are so weird, you know.”

“I really don’t know whats worse, trying to navigate around this campus without some sort of map or being alone while doing it. Would you maybe be able to help me? I need to find the halls, before this suitcase pulls off my arms.”

“I called the DMV to schedule my second driving test, but they said that they were booked until 2020. I think I traumatised them. Guess I need a chauffeur... any takers?”

Weighed down with hours of studying and homework, Olivia couldn’t concentrate at all in her dorm, the place where she usually did her best work. Maybe it was her roommate’s deafening typing, maybe it was the calculus that seemed to fuck with her brain, maybe it was something else, but she needed to go to the library. Gathering up her books, she headed across the campus and towards the school’s library, feeling almost envious of the two fair-haired freshman who giggled over some Tumblr post, their Spanish homework forgotten to them.

Finding a corner of the library that few people came to, she stretched her arms before taking out her calculator, not wanting to do this homework but having no other choice. Just as she began to actually understand the first problem, she heard a loud thud. Raising an eyebrow, she reached for the fallen book, turning towards the person who seemed to have dropped it, although she wasn’t quite certain if it was them. “This yours?”

Though anxious for the school day to begin, Alexander couldn't say that the emotions currently churning within him where any worse than the ones he’d been battling all summer. If anything, he was in a better mental state now than he had been for the past few months. The lack of attention he was getting right now--just standing around by the main building, eyes glued to his phone--felt like a breath of fresh air compared to the way his parents had been breathing down his neck in the days before. 

And though he still didn’t feel any more inclined to go up to anyone new and introduce himself, push out some of that negative energy he’d been internalizing and make new friends, he was at least willing to smile warmly when others passed by him and that was progress enough.

Leaning against the brick wall, and inhaling a bit of the fresh air, Laurel lit a cigarette with a sigh. She lifted it to her lips, reading to take a drag before she spotted another person. “You’re not going to narc, are you?” She accused, rolling her eyes gently, keeping her eyes locked on the figure.
