His voice was flat. Shocked. He put his head down on the desk, covering his face with his arms.
The guy in front of
us,
Joshua something, turned around. “Dude, how bad
Logan’s voice was muffled against his arms. “Don’t even ask.”
“That bad, huh?” Joshua winced. “I got a sixty-five. Thought that was rock bottom.”
“I wish I got a sixty-five. Logan said.
Around the classroom, students were starting to compare scores in hushed voices.
“What did you get?”
“Seventy-two. You?”
‘Fifty-nine. I’m screwed.”

“She got one hundred and five?”
“That’s impossible!”
“The bonus questions were insane, nobody gets those!”
“I thought she never studied!”
Sarah was staring at me with her mouth literally open. “Aria, those bonus questions… I couldn’t even understand what they were asking.”
“This is unreal, someone else said.

I felt Logan’s eyes on me. I turned to look at him.
He was sitting up straight now, his test paper with its bright red 15/100 forgotten on his desk. He looked completely stunned.
“Bro. His voice cracked slightly. “You said you’d fail with me.”
I shrugged. “I said maybe I wouldn’t.”
“Maybe? MAYBE?” He ran his hands through his hair. “You got one hundred and five! That’s not maybe, that’s like… that’s like breaking the
