The triumvirate of Moore, Brandt and Walsh always tried to be early to math classes. This was primarily because of the fact that Morgan – who was currently attempting to hide behind her bangs from the teacher as they made their way into the room and found three seats in an empty cluster of five desks toward the back – was absolutely terrible at anything concerning numbers. She couldn't get her head around them no matter how hard she tried, and was only in Math Part B because of all of the work that had gone into memorizing how the patterns of things worked and spending hours being tutored by Cat, who was a math wiz.

(Nick just didn't care either way.)

( So the three of them were early, and the teacher had yet to notice them, and they planned on keeping it that way. The quieter one was, the less one was expected to actually pay attention. )
