First meeting

Jemma sat in the front row, the seat to the right of the desk, her usual place.

A large book on his right, a notebook filled with notes highlight on his left, a pen stuck between his lips, attentive listening to the teacher facing her.

?: Very good for this year I decide to innovate, so you go to be paired.

Jemma sighed, she had never liked to be in pairs, that engender misunderstanding, conflict, misunderstanding and bad note, unthinkable ...

Leo was seated in the 14th row, sitting perfectly in the center of the amphitheater.

Leaves scatter all over the tablet facing him, his gray pencil typing nervously on it, listening to the pairs forming by his teachers.

He never liked to be in pairs, it was too much pressure, it made him nervous, and no one ever understands him when he talks about electronics.

?: Jemma Simmons and Leopold Fitz Laboratory 12b.

Leo grimaced lightly at the understanding of his full name.

Jemma instinctively turned her head toward the back of the room, as her gaze rested on the blond-haired young man seated in the 14th row, middle seat as usual.

Leo slowly turned to where his new partner was, leaving a nervous smile on his face as their eyes met.

Of course he had to fall with the most intelligent and beautiful girl in the academy ... to whom he never addressed a single word.

Of course she had to fall on the most intelligent boy, who probably loathed her because he had never addressed her a single word.

When the class was over, the students hurried out as Leo reached the corridor, his gaze rested on Jemma leaning against the ripe in the face, supplies in his arms, gaze lost in reflection.

He approached slowly, clearing his throat when he reached his height.

She looked up at him.

His breath broke off for a second.

F: Um ... you ... you're Simmons, I mean Jemma ... jemma Simmons ... is not it ?! He said stuttering like a teenager.

Ok it was a teenager but like ...

S: Yes and you are Leopold Fitz. She said with affirmation.

F: Just Fitz or Leo ... my mother calls me Leopold and you're not my mother ... obviously. He said nervously ending his sentence mumbling.

Jemma pulled a smile that she could not hold back, he was nervous and she found her very cute.

He let a smile stretch on his face.

?: Fitz-Simmons.

Said a male voice that he recognized as his teacher.

They both turned their gaze towards the man who was at their height.

?: I want you to know that I did not pick your binomial at random, it seemed obvious to me that putting the best biochemistry student with the best engineering student would make an all-out science team, 'Therefore expect you a total investment in partnership.

He explained seriously.

F: Of course. - S: Of course sir.

He said at the same time.

They exchanged a glance.

?: Well, I wish you a good day in case.

He said, moving away.

F: You too. - S: Likewise.

He said again in unison.

They exchanged a look again as Jemma smiled at her.

Leo smiles at him.

Maybe partnering will not be so bad after all! He said.

S: Well, if we go to our new lab, Fitz ?! What do you think ?!

She asked.

F: Excellent idea Simmons.

He replied, smiling a little more.

Jemma entered the corridor first, a slight smile stretching on her face.

This partnership will probably be better than it would have thought.
