Koda looked at Declan skeptically. This guy really was a nerd wasn't he? He was strange for sure, even going so far as to say that Koda was smart. No one ever bothered to tell him that, especially recently. The teachers just treated him like all the other delinquent kids.

"So what if I'm lazy?" Koda muttered. "Everyone's like that ya know? I don't want to be smart or anything."
