Tutor Session with Alfred - RP

Apr 26, 2011 13:35

He was supposed to be meeting Alfred to help him study for their quiz in Chemistry they had in just a couple of hours. He placed his book bag down on the lunch table, and took his books out of it. Hopefully Alfred would be on time, since they only had an hour for lunch.

Alfred looked rushed into the cafeteria, notebook in hand. Not wanting to be too distracted with food, he went straight to the dessert section and grabbed some soft serve. Then he scanned the tables full of people, until he finally found his brother, sitting at one of the back tables.

“Hey, Matt!" he said, as he made his way over.

Matthew brightened at the sound of his brother's voice. It never failed, when he heard the happiness there, he couldn't help but smile a REAL smile. His brother, and now maybe Lars, had been the only two to ever really see it. (Maybe Feliks, but he wasn't sure about that one.)

"Alfred!" He said. "Good! You brought your notebook!" He grabbed his own notebook and opened it to the first page of notes. "I know you can memorize this pretty quickly." He said, motioning for him to sit down. "After the quiz, and the test next week, I promise you can forget all about it, okay?" He smiled.

Alfred grinned, as he took his first spoonful of ice cream. "So, what are we learning?" To tell the truth, Alfred didn't really have any good notes in his notebook. A paper and pencil meant doodling, which led to comics, which led to not listening at all. So really, he was helping himself by NOT taking notes.

"We're learning the basics right now." Matthew started. "Atoms, protons, neutrons, electrons...basic stuff that everything is made up of." He paused, and pushed his three pages of notes at Alfred. "I don't expect you to copy, these. But I think looking over them will help." He opened his book to a certain and also showed Alfred the pictures and diagrams of atoms.

He started explaining more to his brother, calling Alfred's attention back to the study session every few minutes, because Alfred would get so distracted.

He had come prepared for the elements on the Periodic Table they needed to know for the first quiz, with flash cards. He knew those helped Alfred memorize things. Hell, it helped Matthew memorize things. And if a trick worked once, it would work again.
