Mount Olympus [7]

Rayah

I smile even wider, burying my face in his shirt.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I take his hand and stay with him, sighing.

Jace

I smile at her and walk us to our next class.

```
Nic

"Alone, preferably," the teacher says. "This is a private matter."

Rayah

I moan, "I don't wanna go."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I hesitate before letting go of his hand, kissing him quickly before glaring at the teacher and walking to my locker.

Jace

I chuckle and walk in, setting her down and sitting at the table, "I don't have this class, do I? I can't think straight today..."

```
Nic

I watch her go before looking back at the teacher, "If this is about that test you made me take after school the other day, I don't want to know. I don't care. That was messed up."

"It was a learning disorder test, you know," she says, students filing into the classroom behind me, before handing me an envelope. "Those are your results. I don't have the time to discuss them with you."

I look at the envelope before leaving the room, tempted to just throw it away.

Rayah

I shake my head, "No...you don't."

,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I stare at the books in my locker before sliding my phone in my pocket and just leaving school. Whatever.

Jace

I nod and hesitate before standing, kissing her forehead, "I'll see you later then. I've gotta figure out where I'm supposed to be."

```
Nic

I don't find Jackie, so I take the stairs to the roof. Closing the door behind me and wedging it shut, I walk to the edge and look at the envelope again, turning it over in my hands.

Rayah

I hesitate, "I think I'm leaving though."

,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I text Nic that I left before heading to my house.

Jace

I study her, "Where you planning on going?"

```
Nic

I just finish reading the first page when Jackie texts me. Not sure what I'm supposed to feel about this, I stand and leave the school to her house.

Rayah

I shrug, "Home."

,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I close the door behind me and make to take a shower, wrapping myself in a towel and heading downstairs when I hear the doorbell.

Jace

I hesitate, nodding, "I'll come with then."

```
Nic

I ring the doorbell when I get there, leaning against the doorway and reading over the paper again.

Rayah

I nod and lead him out.

,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I awkwardly open the door, my hair down, and flash a smile as I move some hair out of my eyes, "Hey."

Jace

I take her hand and follow her out.

```
Nic

I look at her and flash a smile, "I would have texted first if I knew you'd be in the shower. S'alright if I come in?"

Rayah

I lead him home, yawning.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I smile and nod, stepping aside, "Of course."

Jace

I whistle while we walk, looking around.

```
Nic

I smile and walk in, sitting in her living room, "When you're dressed and everything, I need you to look at something for me."

Rayah

I smirk and look at him, "I never thought you'd do that."

,,,,,,,,,,,,
Jackie

I nod and head up, smiling before getting dressed and heading back down.
