209. Proud

"I have not prepared anything..." Natasha looked at Lance, but he just covered his mouth with his hand, seemingly shocked at her forgetting this important presentation.

Paige saw Lance acting out, and pinched his hand to make him behave. It really worked, after flinching, he turned back to stare straight ahead.

Professor Norris shook his head,

"Then why did you appear today?" This evening, classes were only open for presentations.

Natasha's eyes wandered around, saying hesitantly,

"I would like to ask the professor if I can change the date..."

Because everyone was finished, Lance stood up, wanting to grab Paige's backpack, but she was faster, giving him a warning glance.

"Wait for me!" Natasha cried out when she saw both of them leave without her.

Professor Norris turned to her,

"Student, you have business here." Seeing her attention on him again, he looked through his calendar, figuring out when he could squeeze her in.
