CHAPTER 8. Kurt likes Kim.

  “Hey, paintbrush, are you ready to do some studying?” Kurt asked.

  Noah leaned against the tree, and Elsa glanced at him.

  When he raised his brow at her, she quickly turned her attention to her friend.

  “Go away,” Kim said, glaring at Kurt.

  Instead of him going away, Kurt took a seat beside her.

  Much to Elsa’s discomfort, Noah took her right, while Ryan took her left.

  Adam, the other friend, sat on Kim’s free side.

  She was a little confused as to why they were getting special attention.

  “Why? We’re friends, really good friends.”

  “What do you want?”

  “Seriously, this is how you treat lab partners?”

  “Kurt, we have to work on one project together, that is all.”

  “What is going on?” Elsa asked, looking from Kim to Kurt and back again.

  “Nothing,” Kim said.

  “Our biology teacher put us together, and we’re to complete an assignment as a team.”

  “Have you done what I asked you to do?” Kim asked.
