The Sexual Education class was short for the students, hungry for some more images after the ringing bell announcing the end of the period. Curious about the new information given, the whole class took a free condom before leaving the room.
Hoagie and Wally were the last, noticing with interest the girls before them.
Both young adults couldn't stop laughing at lame local jokes provided by the previous class.
"You missed a great one, man" smiled Hoagie rising an eyebrow.
"Yah! Where were you?" Inquired Wally not really caring about the answer.
Nigel kept silent to the questions while arranging his books inside his locker. He shrugged.
"What was so interesting you can't stop smiling?"
"Oh, what was NOT interesting!" Hoagie pulled out his phone where he took photos of parts of the movie he just saw.
"What's that?" Nigel asked trying to look interested.
"Oh, wait. I dropped my phone while I was taking this one. But it's a hottie" said proudly.
"Great..."
"What's wrong with you? Are ya mad because you missed all the action?" Wally hit the british's shoulder.
Nigel rolled his eyes.
Would you shut up, already?
"I'm tired. That's all. I skipped class because I was working on a project with Abby." He rubbed his eyes behind the sunglasses. "She stayed all night long and we could finally sleep at 4 in the morning. Boy, that girl knows how to fight, though..."
Wally and Hoagie stared at their friend, not knowing what to ask, where to begin. Could they...?
"What project were you doing, again?" Hoagie asked, not sure about smiling. "You're with me on physics"
"Not a school project. More personal-kind."
"Oh, really..."
"What about?" Wally shrugged.
Nigel's cellphone rang. Both came subconsciously closer to Nigel so they could read over his shoulders.
A text from Abby.
Tied up. Harmless. No mercy.
Your place ASAP
Without noticing the intruders, Nigel sighted tired, but drawing a slight smile. Then he received a couple of congratulation nudges.
"Way to go, pal!"
"Go for it!"
Under the sunglasses, he gave his friends an odd glance not sure about what he was being congratulated for.
"Uhm... Thanks. Gotta go, Abby needs me"
"Got ya covered!" Hoagie exclaimed.
"Go have some fun" Wally nodded.
"I... will?" he shrugged with a smile. After all, he knew he would.
Nigel ran through the hallway thinking about the great battle he and Abby won last night against the Count Spankulot, Stickybeard and Grandma Stuffum saving Sector YU. Or at least they thought they had won. Abby said she would keep an eye on them during the day, since their treehouse had been destroyed after the attack and the sector didn't have any weapon. Before the treehouse was destroyed, both teenagers hid at Nigel's some KND weapons they could hand over to those kids in need. It didn't take Nigel by surprise the text he previously received.
It was a tough job, but someone had to do it, and he actually enjoyed it.
