Cissie had been pleasantly surprised to find that a class taught by Lex Luthor didn't have the mountains and mountains of homework she'd been expecting. There was a lot of reading, though, and between the cardio class of Evil and ballroom dancing, she wasn't as caught up as she needed to be.
She had settled on the rec room as the place to catch up because everywhere else had failed. If she tried to read in her hut, she got distracted by Cassie and the dogs. Reading at the treehouse was right out because of Bart and Bob. At least here, she could mostly manage to tune out the jukebox and people did seem to let her be once they saw she was busy.
Well. It had been a good idea in theory. In practice, she'd found that the reading was pretty dry and boring. It had taken her fifteen minutes to get through one paragraph and she still had about three chapters to go.
"Oh my god!" She threw up her hands and shut the book with a loud bang, admitting defeat before her headache grew even worse. "I knew I should have taken that other Phys Ed class. Anything is better than dealing with old dead people."
