*Poke poke*
"Penny"
*Poke poke*
"Penny!"
*Poke poke*
"PENNY!"
"WHAT?" Penny screamed. She had been having a nice dream about going on a date with Leo when she was rudely woken up by her roommate/best friend Kelly. "Jeez, calm down you crazy person! I just wanted to tell you that if you don't get up now you're gonna be late for Astronomy class" Kelly said as she walked out the door.
Penny shot out of her bed and zoomed around the room as she got ready for class. She threw on a quick outfit before grabbing her school bag and running off to class.
She checked her watch and swore. She only had ten minutes to get to class and it was on the other side of the campus. She knelt down and tightened her shoelaces before breaking out into a full on run. She almost got hit by some guy on a motorcycle and she nearly ran into a few people on her way.
She checked her watch again, only a few more minutes to go! "Ack!" She let out a started scream as she crashed into someone. She landed on something warm and hard, possibly a person.
Penny looked down and wished she could immediately disappear. She had crashed into Leo and was now laying on his chest. She really wished she could crawl into a hole and die right now. This did not look very good. She was practically straddling Leo and she was out of breath because she had been running.
She thought it looked very wrong. She rolled off of him and slowly got up. She apologized to him for the third time in the last twenty-four hours and helped him onto his feet.
"So where were you off to in such a rush?" He asked. "Astronomy class, I just woke up a couple of minutes ago and I didn't want to be late" she answered. She held a hand to her chest and tried to catch her breath. "I have that class too, wanna walk there together?'' he asked her.
Penny chuckled a bit, this guy was smooth. "Alright" she nodded. Penny took the time to study Leo as they walked to class. He was wearing a white jersey with a gray sweater jeans. While she was doing that he was doing the same to her. She was wearing a red spaghetti strap shirt, jeans and running shoes. The two entered through the doors mere seconds before the bell rang. "I'll see you after class, okay?" Leo said. Penny nodded and went to sit beside Kelly, who had saved her a seat in the near the front.
"Who was that I saw you walk in with?" Kelly whispered. "Leo, I met him last night" she answered. She nudged Penny and they both shared a giggle before the teacher called for everyone's attention.
She felt her pocket vibrate and reached for her phone. She opened it and saw she got a text from an unknown number.
'Turn around'
Penny turned around and laughed. She spotted Leo a couple of rows behind her and two seats to the right. He winked at her before turning back to his book. "I totally saw that" Kelly stated. "Whatever" Penny shrugged. She quickly saved Leo's number and then got out her Astronomy book.
Penny turned her attention to her teacher and tried not to laugh at how stupid he looked right now. He reminded her of Dwight Schrute from The Office only he had a beard. "Space" he threw his hat onto his podium. "Time" he pulled out a pocket watch and presented it to the class. "Gravity" he took a bite of an apple and then dropped it on the ground. Penny watched in disgust as some girl in the front row picked it up and gazed hungrily at their teacher.
She was probably one of those girls who slept with her Professors in order to get good grades. "We are going on a journey together you and I today," he stated. "All you eager and nubile young minds on the very cusp of adulthood". A few people around the room laughed while Penny just rolled her eyes.
Her teacher, Professor, whatever, was really starting to creep her out. She glanced at Kelly and was shocked to see her staring dreamily at their Professor! "I shall be your consort, your guide, your chaperon into the heart of darkness" he exclaimed. Another chorus of laughter filled the room.
'What's wrong with these people?' Penny thought to herself. Couldn't they see what a creep he was? "Welcome to Astronomy 101" he said. He took a few steps back and spoke with an even louder voice, "But what do we know about the stars?"
"Virgo, the virgin" he paused to stare at a few female students in the front row. "Orion, the great hunter. These are no mere twinkling diamonds or lovely maidens to wish upon. No, they are dynamos filled with a throbbing, savage and pent up energy!" Penny covered her mouth with her hands to keep herself from laughing.
The guy was a total creeper! She started to hear the rapid turning of pages and tilted her head back a bit. She looked around for the source of the noise and saw that it was coming from some guy sitting beside Leo. He looked like he was having some sort of stroke while he rapidly turned the pages of his Astronomy book.
"Behold the work of Albert Einstein, a Professor once, like moi. The energy and mass of an-" he stopped and stared at the boy sitting next to Leo. He still looked like he was having a stroke only this time he had his hand in the air. She could faintly hear Leo repeatedly telling the guy 'don't put your hand up'.
"Young man, there are no questions until I reach the climax of my lecture" Penny let out a loud "hah!" and then slid down in her seat in an attempt to not draw attention to herself.
She glanced at the guy and saw that he was now standing up, and he still had his hand up in the air. "Ijustfinishedyourbookandthere'sonlyoneproblemEinstein'swrong" he spoke so fast the only thing Penny heard was 'Einstein was wrong'.
A bunch of people laughed at him before he started making his way over to the board behind the Professor. He continued to speak but he spoke so fast Penny was only able to catch bits and pieces of what he was saying.
"What about the other seventeen? Nobody ever talks about the other seventeen" he got up onto the platform their Professor was standing on and flipped over the chalkboard to the other side which was blank.
"For example" he said. Penny as well as the rest of the class and their Professor watched as he picked up a piece of chalk and started drawing strange symbols onto the chalk board.
The symbols looked like a mix of Chinese, Korean and Arabic characters. Then he turned around so he was facing the class and started speaking rapidly again.
Penny got out her phone and started texting Leo, asking him what was wrong with the guy. Not a second later she got a text back saying he had no idea what was wrong with the guy.
"-come on guys I can't be the only one in class" she turned back to the guy and was able to catch the last few words he spoke before the teacher told him that he wouldn't be 'Punk'd' in front of the Dean. She watched as their Professor circled around the guy and whispered something to him.
He stepped back from the guy and yelled "Get out of my class!". She watched as the guy ran out of the room. Their Professor stood in front of the class and asked, "Anyone else care to have some sort of mental breakdown?"
'What an asshole' Penny muttered. A bunch of people turned around and stared at her. 'Oh shit, I guess I said that out loud' she thought. She shrunk back in her seat and held up her book so it was covering her face.
She saw Kelly laugh at her silently from the corner of her eye. The rest of class was painfully slow. All she could think about was talking to Leo after class. She was starting to daydream when she felt her phone vibrate in her pocket again.
It was from an unknown number. 'I heard that. Detention' Penny looked around the classroom until her eyes finally settled onto her teacher who was grinning at her from his podium while discreetly pointing to his Blackberry phone.
Kelly noticed the distressed look on Penny's face and asked her what was wrong. Penny showed her the text.
"How the fuck does he know your number!"
A/N: :D Teehee, did anyone get the 'The Office' joke and the 'Big Bang Theory' joke at the beginning? C: Did you like it? And I was watching Transformers 2 on DVD while writing this so that the chapter would be as acurate as possible. Hope you all enjoyed this. I'll upload the next chapter within the next few days :D
