Being a freshman in college was already hard enough. What didn’t make it better was that you had a huge crush on the statistics class teaching assistant, Shikamaru Nara. You liked everything about him; the way he explained things broke things down till you understood every detail, and he was super smart. He honestly should’ve been the professor. Honestly, it was so hard to ever get any work done in class because you couldn’t stop stealing glances at him, but you never have a chance with him, right?? Because you were freshly 19 and he was 26.

@thealchemistThe fluorescent lights of the lecture hall hummed overhead, casting a sterile glow over the scattered students. It was the third week of Intro to Statistics, and the seats were already thinning out—droppers, mostly, who'd realized the professor's monotone wasn't worth the 8 AM slot.
