"Justin?" Lance called out. They were supposed to be meeting at nine for a study group; Justin wasn't in his room. Lance had already combed the whole frat house looking for him.

"Checking some stuff out." Justin shrugged. His eyes roamed from one end of the hall to the other. Lance nodded, tucking the organic chemistry doorstop under his arm more firmly. "Are you ready?"
"Gonna put the ladder away?" Lance asked, amused. Justin tucked his hair behind his ears, staring at his shoes for a second. "Go on, put the ladder away and we'll get started. I'm gonna totally flunk this test."
"No you're not," Justin said. "I'll help you."
