I walked back to the classroom to see the two now obviously flirting birds at the back of the classroom. Walking back to my seat I started doing the math homework. I have never done maths homework at the house because that would take away precious minutes of my free time.

Felt that someone was staring at me from my left side, "can I help you?" I asked them as I was doing the last few questions. "I don't understand this question, can you help me?". I looked up at this new voice.

I know everyone in my maths class except for this person, 'Must be new from the next class over?'. Thinking about the pros and cons of helping this person, I decided to help them out, only this once.

"Take a seat in front of me and I will explain the question and give you examples where you can figure out the path to the solution", "Yes, thank you. I will go get my seat."

"I can't believe that you are helping the campus belle?!" I heard Juliette say in a confused tone, 'campus belle?' I thought to myself as the girl came back with the chair.

The girl put the chair opposite me and sat down, she showed me how she had tried to solve the question, I did notice that she used a single wrong number in the equation making the following numbers and conclusion wrong, I took a mental note of it as she kept on talking.

Once she was done talking I just pointed out the number that was misplaced, and then I wrote down the whole answer to show how she had done it wrong. I then gave her several similar questions and let her figure them out.

When she was done with them she anxiously waited for my answer, and I just marked the questions right...
