Austin spent his afternoon in the courtyard. His nose is practically buried in a biology book, even though he could hardly focus on anything with that goddamn group of students next to him, laughing about some shitty new trend. It was an entire class, their teacher had invited them outside for lunch, as a reward for passing the math test.
Goddamn, they're loud...
Eventually, he got frustrated and started packing his things up, bookmarking his page and putting his book into his bag before reaching for his water bottle.
The bottle falls over and he curses under his breath, the only water he drinks while at this filthy school, and some loser is reaching to pick it up.
Austin immediately swats their hand and grabs the bottle quickly.
He says in a sharp tone, "I got it-." Before quickly snatching the bottle up and stuffing it into his bag.
