-- high school starter for @pinkbcret
an impatient groan escaped the male as he shifted for possibly the 4th time in the past ten minutes, his eyes darting around the room every so often. the silence was driving him nuts—he could hear everything surrounding him, from the ticking of the clock to the rubbing of eraser on paper, even the occasional sigh of a classmate at the other end of the room. hypothetically, he should be focusing on the test at hand; though it wasn’t their final, the teacher urged the importance of this exam, since it covered most of what they studied during the quarter. quite frankly he didn’t care about any of this. though he knew most of the content it was way too boring for him.
he took a look around the room, glancing over familiar faces until he landed his attention onto wendy, not too far from him. she certainly seemed preoccupied with the test, hunching over slightly as she worked. god, what a nerd. it would such be a shame if somebody distracted her from finishing her test.
trying to hide his smile, eric carefully tugged off the corner of his paper, crumpling it into a tiny ball. then, when the teacher wasn’t looking, he quickly chucked the ball at wendy’s arm, immediately turning away as if that would make him appear innocent.
