Frenemies~Catradora

Adora's POV

I got up at six AM so I could work out, I spent usually an hour doing various work-outs. I didn't want to wake Catra since she was still asleep, so I put my earbuds in and just did my routine on the floor in front of my bed.

I was always jealous of Catra when it came to body image, she loved her body, always has. I always have to work-out and build as much muscle as possible. I loved how I looked now, but that's not always how it was.

Once I was finished, it was seven AM and I went to go take a shower since I was sweaty. When I got out of the shower, she was still asleep, typical. I went over to the outfit I had laid out, I loved it. It was a white turtleneck, a tan blazer, and some corduroy pants. It was comfortable and pretty.

It was seven-thirty, thirty minutes before class started and Catra was still asleep. Should I wake her up? No, it's her responsibility. Well....ugh I guess.

"Catra, wake up, class is in 30 minutes." I heard nothing back so I walked over to her. "Catra, seriously, you should get up."

"Mmmf, Adora you're being so loud, let me sleep." She huffed.

"Fine, don't listen to me." I had given up on trying to wake her, if she wants to be late for the first day she can.

It was with that thought that I heard her sit up and go to the bathroom. Pff, you're welcome.It was seven forty so I decided I would start walking to class.

Should I wait for Catra? No...no I shouldn't, I honestly keep forgetting that we aren't even friends, stupid Adora.

Catra came out of the bathroom as I was leaving, I didn't say anything after I left. I was walking towards my class and headed over to the coffee shop, I had time to spare to get a coffee and be early. I got myself a black coffee, sugar gives me headaches.

Once I got to my class it was seven fifty, perfect, 10 minutes gave me time to set my things up. I still don't know how Catra got into this law program, sure she was as smart as me, but if I'm being honest, she was lazy. The only times she would work hard is when she saw I was super focused on something, so maybe she could top it. Ohh......Well that connects a lot of dots.

Sure, we both wanted to major in law, but she must've known I had chosen this one.

The professor came in 2 minutes before class started, still no sign of Catra. Once it hit exactly eight AM there went Catra strolling in with a few other students. She was wearing a white button up with a red cardigan and her hair up. She looked....I mean she looked fine.

"Okay everyone, sit wherever you'd like, as long as you pay attention to the lectures and participate in answering questions, there won't be any problems." I sat in the front, as I usually do in all my classes.

I saw Catra walking towards me and I just assumed that she would be sitting in the back like she usually did, but I was mistaken because I heard her plop down right next to me.

"Catra, really?" I asked while rolling my eyes.

"What? She said we could sit anywhere, princess." She whispered while her gaze was to the lecture in front of her.

"You really have to sit right next to me? There's like 100 other seats in here." I started while pulling out my laptop.

"Maybe I wanna sit next to you." She smirked.

Yeah, sure, whatever.

Catra's POV

Seeing her blush made me smile, but I bit my lip to hide it. I may have been teasing but I don't want her to think we were actually friends.

She left me for that Glitter girl, she was at fault. She was MY best friend, I thought if I competed with her that she would pay more attention to our friendship...but I got carried away.

It wasn't on me, I had to keep telling myself.

The professor had already started lecturing, Adora was taking notes on everything she said, she looked really cute when she was concentrating.

I snapped out of it and turned to my own laptop and I started taking notes, the teacher kind of just got right into it. She seemed a bit stuck up in my opinion, she kind of reminded me of one of my teachers.

I whispered, "Hey Adora, doesn't she remind you of Mrs. Smith?" I said with a bit of a smile, she looked over and was giggling.

"I was thinking the exact same thing." She was trying to keep in a laugh as we both looked at each other smiling, god I missed this.

We both realized we were smiling so she turned away and looked back at her work.

When class ended, we were both obviously going to our dorm so I kind of just walked beside her, she didn't seem to mind too much. It was a bit of an awkward silence before I said something.

"Hey...did you want to study a bit, I know it's our first day but it's never too early to start right? You don't have to I just-"

She cut me off, "Yeah I like where your heads at, might as well." She said cooly.

On our way back I started to think about this morning. I was awake for the duration of Adora's work-out, but she didn't notice since she was focused. I swear that girl takes everything seriously. Why pretend to sleep? Well....I don't know, I guess I may have been watching her work-out, BUT only for tips. Okay who am I kidding, I don't work-out.

Once we got back to the dorms we both sat on the ground and got out our computers. We just started quizzing each other on random things, and it definitely became a competition, neither of us got anything wrong, obviously.

We were both enjoying ourselves, when I said "I miss this" It was almost under my breath but I was sure she heard it.

She stopped laughing, "What?"

I got nervous and backtracked. "Oh nothing, I think we're done." I shut my computer.

"Oh, okay" I thought I heard a tinge of disappointment in her voice, but in reality I knew it wasn't like that.

Adora's POV

I could've sworn I definitely heard her say that she "missed this". Missed what? I was so confused. She was getting dressed for bed and she put on a t-shirt and shorts, I recognized that shirt, it was mine, I guess we both kept things from each other.

Today was good, I hoped that Catra would want to study with me again,if she said what I thought she said. As much as it hurts, I miss her too.
