I wish I were brave enough to go after him. After six weeks of breathing the same air in this stuffy lecture hall, he’s finally noticed me. My pulse explodes in a gallop because holy shit. My heart skips a beat when the corner of his mouth lifts in a faint grin. Cool and casual, befitting of a sophisticated college junior. In the end, I settle for a small nod of greeting. This is the first time we’ve ever made eye contact, and I don’t know how to respond. It’s impossible to stop the flush that rises in my cheeks. Like a sense of humor.Īt the sound of my voice, Justin pauses in the doorway and turns his head. On the bright side, Dana the TA runs those, and she has all the qualities Tolbert lacks. Can’t remember when my next tutorial is.”Īnother “perk” of being in Tolbert’s class-along with our weekly lecture, we’re forced to attend two thirty-minute tutorials a week. I need to check the schedule before I go. I’ve got rehearsal in twenty minutes.” I get up, but I don’t follow her to the door. “Wanna grab something from the Coffee Hut?” Nell asks as she gathers her books. So yeah, maybe it makes me a teeny bit vindictive, but I get a sense of triumph from knowing that Tolbert is failing the captain of our championship-winning hockey team right along with everyone else. The athletes who play for Briar almost always end up in the pros, and during their years here they get everything handed to them on a silver platter-including grades. Briar is known for two things-hockey and football, which isn’t much of a shocker considering Massachusetts is home to both the Patriots and the Bruins. He must have failed too, but I don’t feel much sympathy for the guy.

Almost everyone else has gone, including Tolbert, but Garrett remains in his seat, his fists curled tightly around the edges of his booklet. He doesn’t look like the BMOC today, though. All he has to do is snap his fingers and an eager girl appears at his side.

Dude walks around like he owns the place. Case in point-Garrett Graham, the other star athlete in this class.
