On Tuesday morning, a special assembly for grade 12 was announced during roll call. As we were nearing closer to sitting our half yearly exams, I just assumed that this would be a lecture from our principal and teachers on how this was the most important year of our lives, that every second here counts, study hard, don't waste precious time and all that other bullshit that I had drummed into me last year.

The pressure placed upon us right now was high, a constant reminder, from every teacher, of where failure would land us. This was my second chance year already. If I failed or got kicked out again, then there was no way I was coming back for a third attempt, but after the hell dumpster of a weekend that I'd just been through, I was in no mood for the lecture.

I was waiting out the front of the assembly hall for Claire when I saw Sebastian and Jupiter walking hand in hand down the path. I had no idea either of them was even at school today, they hadn't been at our table this mo

    AndyThe clock on the wall, in the assembly hall, marked every second that passed by so loudly, like a bomb that was counting down. I wondered if it was only me who was getting distracted by the haunting tick, tick, tick as the time was slipping away. My hand was beginning to hurt from writing nonstop for the last two and a half hours, but I had to push through the pain and complete the exam.Claire was seated in front of me, and I'd stolen glances at the back of her head throughout the entire exam. She hadn't stopped; her hand was working like crazy, scribbling on the page in front of her. She doubts her essay writing skills, and she really shouldn't, because she nails every point the question asks each time, providing in-depth details and tying it all together brilliantly. I wish I could remind her in this very moment how amazing she is, but I just had to hope that she paid attention to my pep talk before we walked into the exam.I didn't think I'd be so nervous, seeing as this is m

    ClaireI tidy my hair, pulling the loose strands back into my ponytail as Andy throws his pants back on and grabs some paper towels and kitchen spray to clean over the chair we just fucked on, wiping away any evidence. He throws the paper towel in the small garbage bin in the kitchen just as the front door opens and Gabby walks in, still wearing the same dress she had on last night but carrying her heels."Oh my goodness, what smells so amazing in here?" She asks in a sing-song, I'm so fucking happy, voice. Yep, she broke her own rules, I can tell. There's only one thing that makes Gabby this cheery."Sex," Andy answers her with a straight face, and I nudge him in the ribs, giving him a look of murder. "Just kidding, it's banana muffins, Claire baked them."The timer on my phone goes off, and Andy opens the oven door and, with a mitted hand, pulls the muffin pan from the oven and places it on the wooden chopping board. The sweet aroma fills the kitchen and wafts out into the downstair

    ClaireWhen Andy suggested a study date at his house, promising that we'd have peace and quiet because his parents would be down in Sydney for the day, visiting his oldest sister, I thought it was a great idea. Andy insisted that we study in his bedroom, stating that he didn't want to have to cart all his books downstairs, but there was no room on his desk, so we had to set up our study session on his bed.I lay on my stomach at the opposite end of his bed and propped my books up on the wooden bed frame so that I was able to read them easily. I started with maths, following the practice paper we'd been given, while Andy lay beside me, working through his PEHPD practice paper. I was breezing through the questions, which made me realise I was wasting my time studying for a subject that I knew I was going to ace, so I decided to move along to English, focusing on the practice essay writing, which I knew would be where I'd struggle the most.I'd read the practice essay question three time

    GabbyInside the restaurant, we are shown to our booth and handed some menus, not that I bother looking over mine, I'll be having my usual. The waitress returns to our table with a bottle of Chardonnay and two glasses. She opens the bottle and pours us each a glass before leaving with our order..The conversation flows seamlessly between us, as if we've known each other forever. Nate tells me about how his parents are divorced, his mum lives in Sydney, and he lives with his dad in a two-bedroom house not far from my own. I feel so comfortable with him, and I don't want the date to end, so when the waitress returns to collect our empty plates, I suggest we order dessert, just to keep the date going longer.While Nate browses the menu, I look around the crowded restaurant and almost spit my wine out when I see two very familiar faces walk in the door."Don't look, but Jupiter and Sebastian just walked in," I warn Nate, who looks up from the menu but doesn't turn around. I watch as the h

    GabbyStepping out of Claire's walk-in wardrobe in my brand new, black, strapless cocktail dress, I did a twirl just to show it off. I felt like a princess, all the guilt I had from paying way too much for a new dress, shoes and make-up vanished when I saw the look on my best friend's face."Gabby, you look amazing," Claire exclaimed as she fixed the strands of my hair that had tangled from my twirl. "You're going to blow him away.""Nothing gets blown on the first date, Claire. I have a strict three-date policy before sleeping with a man." I giggle, knowing exactly what she meant, but my dirty mind can never resist making something sexual."How do you last the first two dates without jumping into bed with them?" She asks me, and I can tell that she's not being judgmental at all; she knows how much I enjoy having sex."Well, I have a set of dating rules that I stick to, like never going home with a man on the first two dates, and I don't bring condoms with me either, that way it remov

    ClaireI was caught between a rock and a hard place. Andy had made his feelings about Gabby's crush on Nate quite clear. He was strongly against any friend of his dating his sister, not that he and Nate were that close, but as the only friend he's actually made, since transferring to Brixton, he wanted to protect that budding friendship.Then there was Gabby, who had been pestering me all week with endless questions about Nate, and I probably would have been able to answer them if I knew him better, but the reality was, he was a complete mystery to me. We'd attended the same school for years now, even shared some of the same classes, but he was quiet, kept to himself and didn't share much. The little I knew only served to drive Gabby's interest in this boy further, and when she begged me to help her, I found it hard to say no.I was directly going against Andy's wishes by inviting Gabby to watch the match; this could lead to a fight between us if he ever found out my involvement in th
