"I'm boreeeddd" Lyra complained, laying upside down on the edge of her bed.

Silver groaned and slammed his computer shut, spinning around in his chair to look at Lyra.

"We've been working for a total of ten minutes" He said, rubbing his temples.

"But this project is booorrringggg" the brunette complained.

"Well of course it is, nobody cares about what makes shiny Pokémon their weird color, but it's the topic we were assigned"

"I hate biology" Lyra stated, dramatically throwing her arms over her face.

Silver turned back around towards the desk and opened his computer again, "And I hate doing a project the night before it's due, but you don't hear me complaining"

"You just did" Lyra said matter-of-factly.

Silver ran his hands through his hair and sighed. He had made the mistake of pairing up with Lyra for a school project. Not like he had much of a choice, since Lyra was the only person he could tolerate in their biology class, and it was a partner project. Out of all her dimwitted friends, Lyra wanted to do the project with Silver, for reasons he guessed were pity.

Lyra's Pokegear rang for the fifth time that night and Silver groaned, "Tell your stupid friends to stop calling you" he snapped.

Lyra laughed with no humor and flipped back onto her bed, typing away on her computer, "It's cute that you think that'll stop them"

Silver's face grew a little bit warmer, "Well then put it on silent or something. We have to finish this tonight"

"How many slides do we need?" Lyra asked, looking at the presentation she and Silver were working on.

"Ten. And we have three" Silver grunted.

"This is not happening today" Lyra complained.

"It's gonna have to. I'm not going to let you bring down my grade"

"Why did I even take AP bio..." Lyra muttered to herself, looking up information on oddly colored Pokémon.

Silver spun around in his chair, "Because your stupid friends were taking it? The same reason you're taking pre calculus? Can you not do anything without your friends?" He hissed.

Lyra didn't look away from her computer. She was used to Silver jabbing insults at her, mostly unprovoked, but he at least had a point this time.

"I wouldn't expect you to understand" Lyra said, "You're incredibly smart and talented and I'm just...popular"

Silver scanned her. Something seemed to be bothering her, but Silver wasn't going to press.

He turned back around to his computer, "It's not that you're not smart or talented, Lyra" he said, "You're just applying yourself in the wrong places"

Lyra smiled, "That's the nicest thing you've ever said to me"

"D-Don't get used to it!" Silver stammered, his face matching his hair, "Because once we're done with this project-"

"-You're done with me, blah blah blah" Lyra finished, giggling a little bit at the end.

"Thanks Silver" she said, her tone more serious.

Silver took a deep breath, "No problem"
