" It's been half an hour since you've opened this . " I said pointing at the book in front of us .

" Ugh - fine . " I just smiled .

" Ok . So - lets do it - "

Me and Sam were currently in his room doing our assignments that were due the day after tomorrow or somewhere later in the week . As exams were near , we didn’t want to keep any pending work . After about another hour I was finally done with all of my assignments . I was just waiting for Sam to be finished so that we could focus on the studying part . Me and Sam were alone in the house as his mom was out with her own friends and Amelia had gone away to meet her family .

" I'm done . I am finally done with all of these . YAY . " he celebrated .

" Well - the congratulations award goes to Mr. Sam . Congratulations . " I grinned, making him laugh .

"Ahem - I would like to thank my dear friend Miss. Ellie Hansler for the support . I wouldn't have done this without you . " he said dramatically, making me hit his arm playfully .

" Wanna eat some fruits ? I'm hungry . " he said as we sat down .

" Oh sure . Need some help ? " I asked .

" Nah . Don't worry . You just soak in the awesomeness of my room . I'll bring some fruit . " he said as he walked out of his room .

" Ok . " I smiled .

His room was actually pretty nice . It had this feminine designs that perfectly complemented the room . He had soo many photos hung up of his mom and him and his cousins and family . He also had some drawings up .

" I bear fresh berries . " came in Sam after a few minutes .

" Oooo . "

" I hope you don't mind some apples too . "

" I don't . " I said . He came and sat down near me . " These are good . "

" I know . "

" Wanna play a game for a while ? " he asked .

" Game ? "

" Ya - remember that trivia of friends ? " he asked .

" Of course . "

" Oh okay . You sure ? " he asked, taking his phone out .

" I mean - I think - wait, why ? " I asked .

" Welcome to the trivia ladies and gentlemen . " addressed Sam looking around at his empty room .

" Really ? " I laughed .

" Yep . I have all the questions here . " he said, showing me his phone .

" Okay then . Let's do it . " I said with excitement .

" Alright - drum rolls please, “ he said, hitting his desk as fast as he could, making me smile with more excitement . “ Number one - What is Monica's biggest pet peeve ? "

" Animals dressed as humans . " I said standing up .

" Correct . " he smiled.

" Monica and Ross had a grandmother who died. Chandler and Joey went to her funeral. Name that grandmother. "

" Oh uh - Muriel or something ? "
