"It's just, impressive is all. Latin's really hard."

The only Latin Amber knew was 'menage a trois' and she was pretty sure she learned that from TV, not class.

"I have so much trouble confiscating the verbs and stuff. Do you think I could like, study with you some time?"

"What?" Ben blinked at her, resisting the urge to cringe. He swallowed audibly, immediately looking at the floor. Even after he'd started playing quodpot, he wasn't used to cheerleaders trying to talk to him. It was still unnerving.

"...I think you mean conjugate."

"Oh, right." She giggled. "See? I could really use some one-on-one tutoring."

"Yeah, probably." Ben nodded, slightly smiling and glancing up at her and then back at his shoes again. Though she was short, so it didn't do so much as averting his eyes went.

"I don't really study... but if you need help I guess...?" He cringed, not even properly finishing his sentence.

She grinned broadly. "That is so awesome of you, thank you!" She bounced up flirtatiously. "I promise I'll do my very best."

"I.. okay. Uh. Cool." Ben attempted to smile at her, albeit weakly. It looked more like he was in physical pain.

Surely, anyone who was watching them have this conversation was.

Ben glanced around.

They were alone in the hallway.

"I'll see you tomorrow... then." Now was the time to escape.
