It was like he'd never even been gone. Well, actually, that wasn't
completely true. As much as Max would've liked to say that Scarlet Oak had stayed the same, boring wasteland (as Angeline would have called it), he'd heard something was going on at the park. He'd not gone to inspect himself (really being above all that petty curiosity nonsense) but he'd heard about it from all sides that day. He was a little behind on classes even though he'd gone ahead and turned in the homework someone else had done for him that day. No matter. He'd be caught up by next weekend. It meant very little socializing for his first week back but Max had had his fill of a fabulous social life for a while. It would be - not
nice but -
all right to get back to working hard and staying up late to do homework. Of course, he'd have to take a break to see Nicci and her friend but that was a necessity. He smiled at everyone as he passed them by in their seats, even deigning to wave to a few of them.
Spotting Russell and his posse, Max moved towards them. He sat close enough to exchange glances with Russ when their names were announced for court but not so close that people could congratulate them at the same time like they were one person. This morning, Max had had a rather posh back-to-school outfit picked out. Once he stepped outside, however, comfort won over fashion for once and he'd ditched the custom-made jacket, leaving him in a
light blue shirt that complimented his eyes. He could still feel the humidity in his skin and while it was great for the pores, sweat stains were one of a fashionista's biggest enemies. He smiled when he saw a few familiar faces looking for seats and gestured them over. "Ugh, what is this weather, Michigan? I should've stayed away and waited for this heat wave to exhaust itself before coming back."
