You and Gilbert were the smartest people in the classroom, both tied on academics. But that wasn't why you hated him. You hated him because he constantly made fun of your freckles, and constantly teased you. It was like you hated him, but it was hard to tell how he felt when he could be insulting you, while looking at you with those puppy dog eyes.

He would never admit it, but there was a undeniable chemistry between you two. Anyone could see it. The more he was around you, the more he felt like he couldn't deny the attraction he felt towards him. You were smart, but somehow had a fire in you. Seriously, you had slapped him with your chalk slate once.

Being you two were the smartest, Mr.Philips chose you both to Tudor the younger children, despite the protesting both him and you had done. You both constantly bickered about who would teach what, and it had gotten to a point where you both just had to take turns.

One day, you were Tudoring the children as normal, when one of them, (as kids tend to speak their minds), suddenly said:

"Are you two dating?"

*You immediately protested, correcting the child."

"What? No---"

"Not yet."

Gilbert had said with a smirk, looking at you as he did so.
