A/N: Chapter four is here! Hope you all enjoy!
The loud calling of an owl's nightly chant enveloped all of the Lars's sense of hearing as well as his inability to sleep. The young man was too anxious to sleep on this earlier Tuesday morning.
A wide and sad smile grew on the man's lips as his eyes stared up at the darkness above him. "I'm gonna fail." Lars whispered in a defeated attitude.
This last week had flew by him in a blink of an eye. His weekend went by even faster and Monday did not seem to exist. Only today, Tuesday, existed and the nefarious chemistry test that he's been dreading since last week Tuesday.
Although Lars forced himself to get back onto his studies, he still felt that he was not prepared for this test as well of three other test that he would have take this week.
Another sigh escaped from his parted lips. 'No sense on laying here.' The idea of going back to sleep was not going to happen anytime soon. The sleepless male rose into an erect position. He allowed his restless body to adjust to from the swift motion before he turned his head to the right and peered over at the digital clock on his nightstand.
'1:03 AM. Fantastic.' Thought the man before he laid back down.
Though the distressed youth was having a rough time trying to find sleep, Lars figured that it would not be wise of him to get up earlier than need to be. 'I have to get some rest.' Was the last thing Lars thought to himself before he forced his eyelids to conceal his orbs.
Warbling voices of birds chirping pieced the sense of hearing of Lars. These sudden sounds of the morning song alerted the male that it was still Tuesday morning. A powerful yawn forced the male's jaw to open while he concurrently turned to the right side of his bed and gazed at the time on the digital clock.
The numbers read 12:37 PM. The man's eyes grew wide as his mind became frantic.
"Oh shit!" Yelled Lars as he jumped out of his bed and darted towards his bathroom. Unfortunately for him, this sudden motion resulted in him tripping over an unidentified object and landing flat on his face.
Lars recovered from his clumsy footing and jumped back onto his feet. From that point on, he was able to safely make his way to the bathroom.
"Hey Uncl- aah!" A terrifying yell escaped from Jin's, Lars's nephew, lips as the young boy literally jumped out of his uncles path and landed roughly on the hardwood flooring to avoid being trampled by Lars.
Thanks to his nephew's quick thinking, the twenty-three year increased his speed and continued to stamped his way from across the living, desperately trying the reach the portal of exit.
"The hell is wrong with him?" Kazuya's question was the last thing Lars heard before he pulled the portal open and dashed threw it.
The man slammed the door behind and did not bother to lock it, figuring that it would take to much time. Instead the male compelled his legs to guide him towards his dark blue, Cadillac 300 C. Once he reached the driver's side door, Lars jammed his thumb on the unlock door button and unlocked the doors. He climbed into the driver's side and shut the door in an instant and swiftly jammed the key into the ignition. When the motor hummed, the frantic youth peered over to his left side and read the time on the digital clock.
It read 12:40 PM.
Lars studied the time for a few more seconds before he finally threw the gear in reverse and recklessly speed out of the driveway. In the process of doing so, the male barely missed hitting an on-coming car which slammed on the breaks and honked their horn at him.
"Fuck you!" Lars shouted at the top of his lungs as his concurrently switched the gear into drive and speed off once again. The male only had twenty minutes to get to class and was not about let anything or anyone impede him.
"I only have one minute!" Lars whispered to himself in a low growl. The hysterical male walked at an unreal speed down the long hallway towards the class that was located all way at the end of the hallway on the left hand side.
Lars contrived his sore legs to move faster while his golden orbs remained glued to his smartphone. Not once did his eyes leave the screen which held the time 12:59 PM pm on the thin, translucent screen. Lars wished and prayed for the time not to change, he prayed that he could get a break from this overwrought day.
For a split second, Lars allowed his orbs to lift away from the phone and onto the hallway. He eyebrows furrowed when he caught sight of an unusual setting in front of his Chemistry Lab.
There in front of the lab, stood the entire class of students waiting anxiously in front of the door. This sight allowed the man to slow down his speed until he eventually came to a halt.
The slightly confused male took the time to observe his peers. Some students stood in a slight daze, while quite a few students chattered amongst themselves. Then there were the few who actually focused on the test and continued to study. 'I probably should be doing that right now.' Thought the male.
This thought, however, remained just that. Not once did Lars make an attempt to pull out his textbook and study, nor did he bother review over his notes. No, instead Lars just stood there with a blank stare on his visage.
"Um, excuse me!" Called the voice of an unknown male. Lars turned to face the person who spoke. He, along with the rest of the class directed their attention onto this man.
In front of the class stood a short, frail, liver-spotted male who was dressed in a austere white lab coat, a bland green dress shirt paired with beige slacks. Standing next the male was the nerdy female with the two tone dyes of pink on the left and hot pink on the right side of her head.
'Who's this?' Thought Lars.
"Hello there class, I'm Dr. Bosconovitch, the Microbiology professor," Began the professor . "As you are all aware, today was your schedule test; However, Professor Ekoda will not be here today. So you are all free to leave." With that said, the rather older male turned around and walked away from the class. The pink haired girl quickly followed the man.
It did not take students long to process the fortunate news. Within seconds of the professor leaving, the large gang of students hastily made their way back up the hallway and onto their next destinations. Lars, on the other hand, just stood there with the same blank stare on his face.
'I can't believe it!' He thought with a hint of excitement. The tensed male was able to relax with a much needed sigh of relief. With Tuesdays and Thursdays being the days of only this class, Lars could take this free time to catch up on his studies for this class as well as he other courses.
A/N: In the next chapter, I will have it set on the day of the test and I will also have it where Lars and Alisa will exchange some dialogue as well. So until next time, I will post next week!
