My teacher asked why I always bring a water bottle to PE but drink from the fountain the entire class

I pack it every morning. I even fill it with ice. I clip it to my backpack like I'm training for a triathlon.

But the second we get to the gym? Straight to the fountain. Six times. Sometimes seven if Coach isn't looking.

The bottle just sits there in my bag, sweating through my math homework, fulfilling its true purpose: making me look prepared.

Punchline

I told her it's a "hydration decoy." She gave me a lap.
