This is the first chapter of the second book. so if it doesn't make sense, read "what could happen on a tuesday" : )

The next morning, Arthur was tired he had stayed up late watching the telly, because he knew if he let his mind wander, he would think about Alfred. He got to school late, and found someone waiting for him in his class room. It was Alfred, and he looked just as tired as Arthur.

"Hey." Arthur said, and the boy spun around, and flung himself at him. They held each other in a hug for a few seconds, and Arthur pushed him away to close the door, hoping no one saw that hug through the crack in the door.

"I've missed you." Alfred said

"I saw you last night, there wasn't enough time for you to miss me." he said, even though Arthur missed him too.

"There defiantly was though." Alfred said, "And I have a lot of questions I need to ask you."

"Questions?"

"Yeah, well, um, I've got a bunch more but I didn't really ask before I did what I did yesterday…" Arthur didn't get where he was going with this until he said, "Did I rape you?" in an almost whisper.

"Of course not! I, I've, there was consent, some time I'm sur-"

"So do you love me?" he asked again.

"I thought we went over this." Arthur sighed, but the did want to be truthful, "Well, I guess I could call what I feel love." he blushed.

"Do you have any siblings?"

"Wow, the topic change-"

"We don't have much time before class, do you?"

"I have three brothers."

"What's your birthday?'

"April 23rd."

"What year?"

"1991."

"so that makes you…" he looked like he was trying to count in his head

"22."

"Wow, that is younger than I thought."

"How old did you think I was?"

"I'm the one asking questions." Arthur rolled his eyes at that, but Alfred just continued

"So are you going to treat me any different in class or any different than any other student?"

"No."

"So did that detention count?"

"Yes-"

"Is it on my permanent record now.?"

"Yes." of course if it counted, that what it means.

"Was I late?"

"What?"

"To class, you said I'd have to be in detention every day if i was late."

"Oh, well, yes you were but-"

"So I have to go to detention today?"

"No-"

"But you said you would be treated no different-

"Well then you have detention!" Arthur was getting flustered at all these quick questions!

"Okay. Is this legal?"

"What?"

"For a teacher and student-

"I don't think so."

"Oh. So will you get fired now?"

"Only if you tell someone, git!"

"Right, but after I finish this semester?"

"I'm still a teacher, and you're still a student, so the rule still applies I'm afraid."

"When I graduate?"

"I think so, but we just can mention we were together now."

Then the bell rang and interrupted Alfred's questions. Alfred gave him a quick kiss on the check, and ran out the door before students entered the class room.

Arthur went back to his desk and sat down. Hopefully that was the end of his interrogation, but he somehow knew that they would continue the conversation at some point.

sorry it's short and mostly dialogue : ) hope you can forgive me of this
