“Who are you texting this early?” Theo asks, slowing his pace ahead of me so I can catch up. Max does the same.

“Yet another morning person,” I reply, my voice still groggy.

“Oh?” Max asks, his brows raised with intrigue. “Someone interesting?”

“I’d say so,” I answer, grinning at him. “They were your friend first.”

Max’s eyes go wide. “Jude? You’re texting my friend Jude?”

I nod. “Yep. Turns out we’re taking Intro to Psych together, so we figured we’d partner up for a big project.”

Theo also looks shocked. “You’re texting about school stuff this early?”
