Friday
'15 more minutes, 15 more minutes, 15 more minutes,' Pico anxiously eyed the clock as he sat at his desk, ready to be free. He, and most of the other students in the class, had already finished their English test but the teacher would not let them do anything until all the tests were handed in. Of course, there were those one or two kids who wanted to take their time. Most of the students wanted to get out so they could hang out with their friends or get ready for the football game, since it was Friday, but Pico had other plans in mind. He started to let his mind wander, imaging deflecting a huge ki attack back at an enemy, saving a group of people from utter disaster. It was only his first week being on his own, so his new job was still fresh and exciting.
As he let his mind wander, the last student turned in their test and the teacher said the students could do whatever they wanted for the last few minutes of class. A few of Pico's friends moved so they were sitting next to the boy and started pestering him with questions about what they were going to do tonight.
"We need to go to the football game tonight! We're playing North City and I hate those guys," one of them suggested.
Another shook his head, "I dunno. Last time they played North City the guys got destroyed."
The first kid answered back, "Well, yeah, but that was last year. We got Martinez now! That guy's a beast! Plus, with us in the student section, the school spirit is going to be through the roof."
The second kid turned to Pico and asked, "What do you think we should do, P?"
Pico scratched his head, "Uhh, I can't really hang out tonight. Big Shot's Associate needs me to job shadow and-" His friends groaned, unhappy about Pico's situation.
"...And it's really important that you go. Yeah, yeah, we know. But come on, dude, you're always busy. Can't you take one night off for once? Please?" The first friend asked, practically begging.
The second friend added an idea, "Hey, you can invite Presta if you want. I know you and her are real close and all."
Pico paused for a second. Maybe taking one night off wouldn't hurt. Maybe get a little bit of crime fighting in beforehand so he can get his fix. He took a breath, "Y'know what? You're right." The school bell rang, signalling dismissal, "I'll meet you outside the stadium at 5:50, sound good?"
The guys were surprised, but both were excited, "Awesome! See ya later Pico! Thanks so much!"
