AN: thanks for everyone who has reviewed so far, much appreciated! I loved
it opening my mailbox this morning and finding I had some. So thanks again.
And again, don't own the ducks or anything or anybody related to them.
Sorry.
"Come on Portman, don't make this more difficult than it already is." Julie groaned in frustration. It was their first day of tutoring and Portman was already having issues with it.
"Julie. I'm tired and I don't feel like studying. You realize I could get good grades if I actually cared, but you see the thing is I don't." It was true, both students were tired. They had gotten up early for practice then gone to school all day, then gone back to practice and were now sitting in the library trying to go over Portman's geometry.
"Look, I'm as tired as you are but we have to do this. Your parents are paying me good money to help you out and that's all I really want to do. I know you're not stupid and I never said you were. But can we PLEASE get back to the subject at hand?" Julie begged the bash brother.
"Fine. But just because you asked so nicely." Portman retorted. At that moment in time though a few of the Eden Hall cheerleaders entered the library that caused Portman to lose all concentration he may have had. Julie let out a frustrated sigh and let her head fall into her book. "Jules, you know I think you're better than all of them, there's no need to get jealous." Portman smarted off. Julie just looked up to see him grinning face to face.
"You're such a dork." She replied.
"Like you're one to talk." He shot back. Next thing you knew the two busted out into a fit of giggles. "Maybe the library isn't the best place to do this."
"Maybe you're right." Julie agreed. Portman than suggested they could go back to his room. He did after all have a single unlike Julie who had to share with some random girl she hardly knew. They quickly packed up their books and headed on their merry way towards Dean's room.
The two walked in a comfortable silence the entire way there. Julie was thinking about how cool Dean actually was. She was kind of dreading the whole tutoring thing but all things considered thought everything was going all right. Dean himself was off in some dream world thinking about the up coming weekend. He had just started seeing this new girl Rachel and couldn't wait for the weekend to come.
Once they got to Dean's room they settled onto the floor to pick up where they had left off. "You know I really do hate geometry." Julie stated while they worked on a problem.
"I think everyone does."
"Adam doesn't."
"Well isn't Adam just peachy?" Julie rolled her eyes and went back to the problem. "I mean what is it with you two. I know you like him Julie, don't deny it." Julie just shook her head and tried to continue. "Come on Julie you can tell me. The way I see it we're going to be spending a lot of time together. We might as well be comfortable with each other."
"Well, let's see. I'm dating Scooter and Adam is just my friend. Now back to our problem." The rest of their study time went on like this, Julie trying to get the problem done and Dean trying to get off track as much as possible. But at the end of the two hours they had gotten a few things accomplished. Dean was satiated with the amount of info he wanted to know about Julie and Julie was satiated with the amount of info she had relayed to Dean.
