WALKING DOWN, NELLY YUKI walks out with a guy, "Have fun." I say a little confused, seeing the noirette smiling bashfully, "Up from rubs and facials?" B questions.

Seated on the couch, she's accompanied with her minions. Thinking it over quickly, I start to shake my head, "No, I think I'll just grab a snack, shower and head to bed early."

"Alright, goodnight, V."

Getting ready for bed, I maybe got the best night of sleep in my entire life.

Taking my flashcards and binder, I refresh my mind for the final time before making my way over at Hunter College - the location where the SAT's are held, "Where is S?" I question Blair. A little confused by the lack of blond locks, "I haven't seen her." B denies, "Rough night?"

"Yeah. And not in a good way." Nelly sighs, making my brows raise at the statement, "Todd doesn't want to get back together." she tells us, "No?" B and Isabel pout, "Todd?" I ask confused, completely out of the lope, "The boy she left with." Penelope whispers.

Where I nod at, "We stayed up all night having the same conversation as to why we broke up over, and over, and over again." the words she said all clicked into one; Blair sabotage. things in my mind click.

"Unbelievable." they all said not so convincing words of reassurance.

"I got no sleep. I spend the whole night crying." she mumbles, turning to the door, "Do you really think this is going to work?" Penelope asks my best friend, "Yes, but I also believe in insurance."

Holding up a set of batteries, "From her calculator." B smiled. Taking my phone, I try to call the blond. Having it go to voicemail, I groan, "I still haven't seen Serena." I sigh.

Walking into the building, I keep looking around. As B asks Daniel about the blonds whereabouts. Wanting to call again the supervisor points to the board which specifically says; 'no phones'

Sighing I hand my phone in. Taking my assigned seat, which coincidentally between Tom and Will. All in different rows, but still awkwardly next to each other. Taking a deep breath I shake it off. Tapping the noirette infant of me, "Nelly." I whisper.

Not turning around, I keep tapping, until she does, "What?" she asks a little annoyed, "Want to switch?" I ask her - a little frustrated by how she makes it so hard for me to help her - raising a brown when she doesn't reply.

Furrowing her brows we switch calculators, smiling softly. My gaze shifting to the set of eyes burning into the side of my face. Seeing B shake her head slowly at my act, I shrug, "You would jeopardise your own future for Nelly Yuki?" Blair asks as soon as I walk out.

"Ask me anything." I start, "A mathematic question." I add. Watching her face, I nudge her to do so, "The square root of 2?" She sighs.

Taking a deep breath I think it over, "One - point - four, one, four, two, one, three, five, six, two, three, seven." taking the calculator from her hands I type the question, having my exact answer stand.

"I know math, B. It's like a calculator in my head." I shrug, she looks surprised, "I didn't know you were that good in math."

"That's because I don't come out and say it. How do you think we don't have the same math class?" I ask. Having the brunette look blankly, "It's fine, B. I don't like the attention."

Smiling softly, I pass the girl. Whom keep standing in confusion caused by her best friend, not sure if she knows as much about the girl as she once believed she did, "Valerie. Val, wait up." a voice calls.

"Will, hey." The wind blowing my hair, "I feel like I haven't seen you in forever." he tells me, "I'm sorry, just SAT's. I was studying a lot." I apologise.

"With a broken calculator?" he asks me. Furrowing my brows at his words, "You gave the girl yours. She gave you a broken one. You didn't even touch it the whole test."

"Just trying to fix a problem." I shrug, "A math problem?"

"No." I deny, shaking my head.
