"Close to me? What do you mean?" He asked her wondering what she meant. He never thought of people being 'close' to him, he was a technical student-teacher. He had very few friends because every friend he once had left him to dry when the bitch came into the picture- she drove them all away. He only had her at one time but he has grown a back bone since then and like he was currently is testing to waters to see if he can get away with many things. For example having friends that are female that are students as well in his class. She never approved of that but he didn't care tonight, he was having fun.

Claire looked to him with her own sense of wonder to her look. “You know..you walked into a room and instantly everyone welcomed you. Unlike Posh who can part the sea of students in a moment’s notice, you can talk to people and get them listening.” She was beginning to think she was getting a bit too good at noticing what was going on around her. She noticed small things, like the way the girls around her instantly changed their postures when a man walked by, or how even the men seemed to tense when a girl looked their way, even if they couldn’t see the girl. Conversations changed, moods shifted, even expressions morphed to fit the mood. It was all like some big kaleidoscope of detail. “Sorry, I should really think a little more before I say something…” She admitted, knowing he would most likely find her either odd or annoyingly quiet by now.

"I just have practice, its not exactly an art- its just practice. You'll be able to do it sooner or later." He said with a laugh knowing she never wanted that kind of attention. "Don't worry about it. its a party- we are taking a break for it and social rules so just relax.Posh can't hear you. " He said with a sincere smile, looking at his watch he made a face," It's midnight- I'm gonna finish my beer then head out. I gotta get up early tomorrow. " he said with a smile to her as he turned back towards the building they were from. "Do you need some one to walk you to your dorm? If your leaving any how..." They were walking back and he could barely make out Posh's back in the door way, he still needed to talk to her about class tomorrow.

"Already that late?" She said, then remembered she had to do a review session with Schwartz tomorrow. And the worst part was she hadn't even studied the notes thanks to Posh playing dress up on her. If she had any hope of learning at least a fraction of what she was suposed to she needed to get started quickly. Claire was glad for the offer but politely shook her head. "It's alright, I'm not far from here." She said giving him a slight smile. "It was very nice to meet you Matt. See you around." She said before taking her leave quickly. She would text Posh and tell her that she left early, that she felt tired and had to leave. Hopefully she wouldn't be too mad with her later. ~~ Posh noticed when Schwartz returned without Claire, her eyes narrowing a bit in suspcion but then her phone buzzed in her pocket. 'Sorry Posh, felt tired and I have notes to study for tomorrow. See you in class tomorrow.' Posh smiled slightly at how humble even the girls texts were. But that was just another reason why she liked the little girl and felt she needed to take her under her wing. She grabbed her drink, planting a kiss on her her boyfriend's cheek before heading over to Matt. "So, what's the news? Natalie making demands again?" Posh asked him, hoping Natalie wasn't on her way over here. The girl hit a sour cord with Posh, though they were friends once. After all she was part of the reason Natalie even met Matt. She was surprised he forgave her for the craziness it brought to his life, but Posh really had no idea Natalie could get that possessive. At least now he was asserting his independence. Wether or not that would end him up with a couple scars or an even tighter leash was another story entirely..

Watching Posh head over to him he slowed his pace coming to atop just out side the door. "When hasn't she? She is threatening to hurt herself again...I'm kinda buzzed umm...I need to get a sub for my class tomorrow...I'm horrible with hang overs...ummm...Can you take my phone-and call the Dean and inform her that I won't be teaching my class tomorrow...She will know I'm drunk. Ive been over this with her." His speech was slightly slurred now that he had already chugged what last of his beer. Taking a deep breath he went inside and got another beer, coming to stand by Posh again. "And don't worry- I'm sleeping in my car- so no worries...." He pulled the phone out of his pocket and gave it to posh- she shoudl know by now that he was no good with a phone when he was drinking. In a way he got dumb off beer- it made his brain not function correctly. "Oh Posh...She is a nice girl...I agree with you...Poor thing isn't social though- try something smaller next time." He said referring to the party size. He personally won't mind her in something small and tight fitting. She had a very attractive body. He was sure the phone had many messages from Natalie but he really didn't care right now...

Posh nodded understanding what he was saying about the Dean, Natalie and Claire. The two were the uptight type completely and totally not sold easily on just going with the flow and taking things for what they are. "I'll ring her up in a sec. Just try not to give yourself too much of a headache tomorrow. And if the car gets too cold, my door is always open." She said with a joking flirty wink, turning on the phone and heading to the bathroom. She opened the phone and the first thing to pop up were the text warnings from Natalie, she looked over one frantic one and debated deleting it. She finally gave up on her descision to delete it, knowing it would get him in trouble....why did he chose to stay with that girl anyways? Especially when he had someone there all along to help him...Not that she was jealous of Natalie, the bitch was mental, but she did wish she would have taken that chance and spoken to Matt that day at the orientation before she allowed Natalie to. Then maybe she wouldn't have been placed in the friend zone... She flipped her hair over her shoulder as she prattled off to the dean about getting a sub. The Dean agreed to hire a sub and quickly Posh hung up. She walked back out a sway in her step s she offered Schwartz back his phone. "Easy as cake and tea, now what was this you were saying about something smaller? And besides you know better than I that the best way to fix something is to plunge head first into the quickest solution." She said adding to the comment about Claire.

Taking his phone back he sighed while she was gone he had done a beer bong with a few boys, each were more drunk then they needed to be. "Thansks Possh. I really appreciate you as a friends. I dos." He said as sober as he possibly could. "I sh-should be fine ins the car." When he looked at his phone his brown furrowed a bit reading over the message," I really don't like her...she needs to leave me alone...You two were friends can't you talk to her about it?" He said back to her about Natalie," And as for Claire...Don't get me wrong I'm not objecting to her wearing what ever or anyting at all. but a smaller group would work better for her I think... Don't get me wrong..Oh bloody hell...I can't put on a bloody shut up filter tonight." He was drunk so he was a bit hard to understand but he was okay. He was going to sleep in hsi car till his alarm went off on his phone to wake him up for class. If Posh did call the dean he wouldn't have to scar Claire...

Posh shook her head, giving him a look with a bit of a laugh. "Well as a friend I suggest you give your throat a break." She said and nudged his side. "And we'll deal with Natalie later. I don't have the patience to deal with the beast tonight." She said fluffing her skirt. She was glad Matt was able to relax but she worried about him, the guy didn't take to alcohol too well. And yet he was worried about Claire. Interesting but not okay with her completely. ~~~ Claire looked over the notes, feeling her head suddenly feel light headed. She didn't know any of this, at least she knew a little of it but not enough for her to survive. She pulled her hair up into a pony tail, then went back to fidgetting with the pen in her had. It had been forever since she'd actually been around that many people, the last ime ending very badly for her...she shook the thought off going back to focusing on the notes. However things just kept coming to her mind. Posh and Matt, the only two people that actually gave her the time of day...why though? She didn't do anything special or even have anything to offer. She was just the quiet, weird foreign exchange student. Giving up from trying to study she turned to her Facebook on her phone. Messages from all over, those of the people that missed her posting friendly messages on her wall but she knew she wouldn't answer them. She looked away from the phone and laid on her bed. She'd been lucky enough to have a roomate that was a partier, a girl that stayed out in late hours doing god knows what. Claire looked at the wall, wondering just how badly she really wanted this..to be here. After all her mother always talked about how much she loved this school and the people. Perhaps it would be the same for her. She snuggled into the pillow just thinking that her mother had once slept on a bed like this, thinking about the days ahead herself...

When the alarm went off he felt like he was going to throw his watch out the window. The sky was just starting to get bright and it was hurting his eyes. Sitting up he moved his seat back up and realized he was still in the same clothes as last night he was going to turn the car on and go home but he forgot he didn't have his keys- he left them with Posh before he even drank. Smiling he went to an old room mates room and borrowed some clothes, they were simple a white T shirt and the same jeans he had last night. He didn't mind but when he grabbed his bag out of his trunk he smiled. He was going to be a student today not a teacher- he felt a little stress off his shoulders however when he was almost to his building he almost ran into Natalie- she over looked him because he looked different then he had since she last saw him. Swirling to miss her he dodged behind a few other students and went inside under the cover of them. Sighing he went to his class room and sat in a desk in the middle where Posh usually sat. No students were there since he just unlocked the room. Leaving the keys on the desk. the sub wandered in a few minutes later. He was an old stuffy scholar who was most likely a spitter. Sighing he introduced himself to the teacher as Matt, he wanted o be known as a student this week. He didn't want to give up his cover for an actual social life just yet.

"Come on Claire, you're going to make us late-wow can't believe I'm saying that." Posh said as she pulled Claire along. After all Posh was usually the one who sauntered in late, especially since she was the one battling the nasty cotton mouth and headache at the moment. However Claire seemed to be in a bit of a fog at the moment, unable to keep from lagging behind. "Sorry Posh, I fell asleep after studying." She said quietly and Posh rolled her eyes. "Gosh Claire, no one is going to get you if you let one night be a break." She dragged her into the class and made a b-line for her desk, till of course she noticed Matt. 'What the hell-?' She looked up at the desk and saw the sub then looked back to Matt. What was he up to? Claire peeked around Posh and saw Matt. "Oh, you're in this class?" She asked and Posh raised her brows at Claire. "In this class he-" She paused nodding to herself for a moment. She released Claire and the two sat down, Posh kicking up her feet on the desk just to mess with him. Claire pulled out he rnote book and the notes, looking them over a bit before class. She had a confused look on her face, her nose wrinkled slightly in thought. "So, Mr. Liberman is replacing the teach today. He's worse than the english teacher." She said almost groaning to herself at how boring this class was going to be.

"Oh hey- yeah I'm in here all the time- just not recently... Hey Posh." He said giving Posh a 'don't do it' look. He knew she could give his game up if she wanted but he hoped she wouldn't. "Yeah...That's why I'm not sitting in the front he spits...any how Claire do you need help with the notes..well understanding them? I can help if you want." He said to her knowing she wouldn't probably want help. Smiling at Posh," So you looking forward to class Posh? When the questions start...you wanna have a race to see who can get it done faster? For extra credit of course..." He said as he was telling her in a weird manner in a way that maybe Claire wouldn't get the reference.

Claire didn't answer at first, her nose practically burried in the scribbles she'd written all over the page. She then looked to him shaking her head with an apologetic look. "I think I've got it. Just a few terms and what not..." Posh peeked at him from under her hand that covered her eye lazily. She sat back up from her lean giving him a smirk. "Some ones awfully chiper this morning...Sure, I'll take the wager, only because your overly confident I'm not going to kick your butt." She said, wondering just why he wanted to keep up this fiscade of being a student. After all he got the best of both worlds of being both the professor and the student. But she would play along, get it over with so that he could have some time of refuge in relaxing, besides this also meant that he wouldn't be stuck behind a desk or with Natalie all day... Everyone seemed to enter the class at that moment, everyone filling into seats as Liberman began his explenation in his monotinous, lisped cognay voice. It was hard to understand at times, especially when his hearing aid fluxuated and he couldn' hear what he was saying. Claire looked to Matt, not having paid much attention to their previous conversation because she was in thinking mode at the moment. However she was looking a bit overwhelmed with all the work and terms that she had no idea what they meant and she couldn't understand half of what the old man was talking about. "Um-perhaps I might need a little explaining...I don't want to be any sort of trouble.." She said and Posh rolled her eyes. "Oh tosh, don't worry bout it, kitten. He has the best grade in the class." Posh joked, trying to keep her smile to a minimum.

Smiling at her when she finally came around he nodded to her," Of course, hows your free period in the Library?" He said in a smooth soft voice to kept he teacher form noticing. "Posh you think this guy will ever start asking questions?" He looked at Posh about the grades issue," I'm not the best student in the class sand you know it...I'm just the top in this class." He laughed about it lightly.

(heh if he knew what questions to be asking. Lol you know your screwed when even google cant explain it to you.) Claire nodded to Matt, swallowing her normal aversion to help from someone she wasn't quite sure knew what they were doing. She also had a bad sense of needing to complete things for her benefit. Paige rolled her eyes glancing at Matt. "Basically he's just re explaining what you went over last week. I don't even think he knows what he's talking about." She said looking over the table he'd written on the board basic comparrisons for formulas to their application in societies problems. "Can anyone give an example of how this would be applied in a modern day problem?" He said pointing to one of the formulas.

Matt raised his hand and the teacher called on him already knowing his name since he introduced himself," With a Bell- say the class change bell, A bell's vibrations are passed onto the air particles around it and create sound waves that are interpreted by our ears. So differnt pitches would mean different periods and so on." The man nodded ," Good good,What about a calculator how did that work with Physics?" "Integrated circuit chips, the more advanced the more we can get a calculator to do. The particular formula he was pointing at was one with sound and electronic conversions at the end to get it in bits. He looked at posh and smiled at her," He really doesn't know what hes talking about." looking back at Claire with out even looking at the notes he stared explaining the classes high lights per day since the class started in an easy way to understand it. "Got it?"
