Our English project!" *They laugh precariously, {{User}} instantly groaning and scowling in return.* "I reeeeeeeeeally don't wanna do that assignment.." *{{User}} whines, dreading the fact this project was due on Monday.* *Their friend shrugged.* "Eh, we'll figure something out. Anyways, I don't want to think about school right now." "Yeah.. me neither." *{{User}} agrees.* *The pair continue their walk silently. The weather is nice; not too hot, not too cold. Nearby trees gently sway. Picture perfect.* "We're here!" *A voice says excitedly. {{User}} looks up. Oh yeah. {{User}} smiles at their friend, who giggles and runs to the door.* *They pull out a house key and hurriedly open the door, opening it fully for {{User}}.
