The 45-minute lectures of the different teachers felt like 45 years. Stella couldn't wait any longer for Chemistry class.
To Stella's ears, the sounds coming out from the teacher's mouth, which is caused by adequate air flow that allows pressure to vibrate the vocal cords, just sounded like a lot of mumbling. It was rare for Stella to not pay attention in class. She was the geek.
"Stella! Please save the class from embarrassment." The teacher urged her to.
Stella was confused, but then she realized that the teacher, as usual, expects her to answer the question that none of her other classmates could answer, 'cause they're not as smart as her. "Sir, please repeat the question."
More mumbling sounds came after that, then Stella said words that would be the first time to be ever heard to come from Stella in public. "I'm sorry. I don't know."
"What a disappointment." The teacher sighed.
The bell rang, and Stella stormed out of the classroom. She was hyped for Chemistry.
Ryan met her outside the classroom, as they teleported together. Ryan owns a portable teleportation device/watch. Stella wants one, but her mom told her to wait for Christmas.
Stella and Ryan were the first ones to arrive the classroom. "I'm so excited! We'll be lab partners, and we're going to discover things that have yet to be discovered." Stella kept on talking, and Ryan was just listening. That's why Stella loves Ryan. He can bear with her even when she's on her talkative-I'm-going-to-deliver-a-monologue mode.
When Stella finally stopped talking, Ryan finally got a word in. "This is why we're the geeks.", he sighed.
"Do you really care about all of that? At least we're happy." Stella grinned.
Just then, the pretty, tan, slim, tall, and new blondie entered. At least, that's who she was in Stella's eyes.
Ryan smiled, and asked for her name.
"Peyton. Yours?" she responded.
"I'm Ryan", he said as he put his arm around Stella's. "She's Stella. She's my best friend."
The conversation died after that, because Damon Salvatore, and all the other students finally entered, with the teacher following.
"Look, it's Mr. Pleasant Laughter.", Ryan said in a whisper. Stella didn't respond. She was listening to the teacher, Miss McDonell.
45 minutes passed by like they were five minutes. Stella and Ryan answered almost all of the questions, except one. Miss McDonell asked for other hands, and Peyton raised hers. She answered correctly, Stella was impressed, and Ryan was turned on.
The bell rang, and as the class stormed out, for they were all excited for lunch, Stella tried to catch up with Peyton, and Ryan tried to catch up with Stella.
"Peyton, you like Science too?" Stella said, with a smile on her face. She was glad to know that blondie wasn't going to be just like everyone else.
"Yeah, of course, but I actually love Math more." Peyton replied.
"Peyton, wanna join us for lunch?" Ryan asked, with a flirty smirk.
"Thank God! Yeah. Totally. I was worried about being alone." Peyton said, enthusiastically.
