“Oh uh– yeah it’s just a few doodles, no big deal,” Winnie shrugged lightly after being called out. She had several books open around her but the one she was supposed to be writing notes in was instead filled with various little sketches. “I’m still studying, I swear,” she added quickly as if the other would care, despite that statement being totally false.

“Do you think it’s too soon for us to take a break?” Jasmine asked the other, closing the book she had been studying without waiting for the other to answer- she had been rereading the same paragraph for the last twenty minutes and had been looking for any excuse to grab a quick break. “I’ve been thinking about getting a cup of tea, would you want one?” 

“The assignment has officially been submitted!” Marzia announced, swinging back in her chair rather dangerously. “Let’s do something to celebrate like eat our weight in ice cream or jump into the lake that’s probably still freezing cold right now.
