The evening Amber had shown Kevin around Hammel he found himself in the student lounge, frowning over homework. Ugh, who understood any of this, anyway?
He pushed long brown hair out of his eyes, glancing around the room, eyes lighting upon Payson Hartley. If there was ever someone with an almost magical ability to do well in class, she was it. He didn't quite believe that her studious nature was to blame for most of her success; he was so sure that even if she never studied again she would still do exceptionally well.
It wasn't fair.
She happened to also be in Ms. Reynold's Home Economics class with him, the class he had skipped to show Kevin around. Deciding to use that to his advantage he shifted his books to one side of the table he was studying at, then stood, stretching gratefully; he was stiff after being hunched over the desk for -- he checked his watch -- five minutes. It was just so unnatural for people to sit still for that long!
"Hey, Paysoooon."
He inwardly winced at how high pitched his voice sounded, though his expression was one of friendly interest. He really needed to figure out how to bring up therapy to his parents.
"So ummm. What did we do in Ms. Reynolds today? Did I miss anything too important?"
