"Class, this is your new classmate, Arthur Kirkland, and he is coming here all the way from Great Britain. Please do be nice to him and help him with anything he needs. Arthur, there's an empty seat next to Alfred that you can take." The teacher said motioning towards the empty seat. Arthur only inclined his head before walking to his desk and sitting down.
"Alright class, please complete 10-3 in your notebooks. You have today and tomorrow to complete it and if you need help, that's what you're sitting in partners for." With that the teacher retreated behind his desk.
Alfred studied this new student, blond hair, green eyes, thin build, pale skin. He looked like he'd be just another kid in the hallway. Damn, I liked sitting alone.
He pulled out his notebook and textbook, all but glaring at the assignment. He glanced over at Arthur who was already on his second problem. Alfred elbowed him gently, "Yo, Arthur right? How do you do this?"
Arthur raised a brow and moved Alfred's notebook closer to himself. He began the problem and paused occasionally to get a confirmation of understanding from Alfred. Once Arthur finished the problem he pushed the notebook back over to Alfred and pointed to the next problem. Alfred bit his lip and worked on the problem.
Arthur smiled lightly but it quickly disappeared. At the end of the class, Arthur finished the assignment and Alfred got most of the way through.
"Thanks a ton dude! I've never been able to do this shit! You really helped!" Alfred cheered. Arthur gave him a nod before continuing to write in his notebook. Alfred cocked his head curiously, "What are you writing, you're done with the assignment right?"
Arthur nodded before removing his hand from the notebook. At the very top was large letters saying, All Alone. Below it was a half a page of writing.
"Oh, it's a story?" Alfred asked curiously. Arthur nodded, "Can I read it?" Arthur's eyes widened and he hastily collected his notebook, shaking his head.
Alfred blinked in surprise to the violent reaction, "I'm sure it's not that bad." Arthur still shook his head, holding his notebook close to his chest.
The bell rang and Arthur bolted out of the classroom. Alfred waited at the door for his friends. Only when he sat down in his next period did he realize something, Arthur never spoke.
