Studying

Scene: Inside a college library, or some place where students study.

Two big study tables close together. At one, there is a girl seated with open books all over, she's cramming for a big exam. At the other, we see a boy sitting down and then reading a novel.

It starts out quiet, girl is anxiously reading and studying. The boy is calmly reading. He starts to lightly cough every so often. The girl hardly notices, but does glance over a couple times. The girl keeps looking at him sharply, hinting. Back to normal....soon the boy laughs at a joke in the book, girl stares him down a little, right at his face. Back to normal....boy gets a text noise, he responds to it, laughing at the funny joke his friend sent. He sends one back. The girl is very stressed and keeps giving him the stink eye.The boy sneezes a huge sneeze and we see that he has gotten some leftover sneeze on his book. He reacts, and finds a spot on the table to wipe off his snot, with some noise. Then blows his nose into his sleeve. The girl has had it.

Girl: (walks over to boy) Honestly, could you get a hint? I can't stand it anymore? May I? (She reaches towards his face to pop a zit)

Boy: Huh?

(Black out)
