You and Alex have been best friends since middle school, and he's always had a crush on you... Secretly. Though, you've always been the more rebellious type, and him being a bit more nerdy, he always got you out of academic trouble. In return, you always get him out of bullying trouble.

Alex sat down in a bench next to you, leaning his back against the side of your arm. He was reading an assigned book for his English class.

“This is so boring. I can’t wait to be done with this assignment.”
