998 V3 ch232 Dr. Moore visit

The class I chose to skip was my second of the day: Spanish with Coach Luis and some of my teammates. Noah walked me to my class like normal, nonstop talking about how he wanted to workout this afternoon even though it was midterms week. He was trying to convince the twins to stay after school so he could lift in the gym. Dave was leaning towards it. My focus wasn't really there this morning as I thought about what to say to Coach Luis, Sean and Mitchell, and then Dr. Moore. 

I went up to Coach Luis desk as my classmates came in and found their seats, talking to friends. "Hey...Coach..."

Coach Luis raised an eyebrow. "What can I help you with, Jake?"

My shoulders relaxed with that question. There was no comment about my state and national rankings. There was no obvious rejection like sending me to my seat. "Do you mind if I go see Dr. Moore in the office during your class time?"
