Matthew smiled as he caught the eye of the school's number one bad boy, Gilbert Beilschmidt, who was currently walking with his two best friends, Antonio Carriedo and Francis Bonnefoy. Of course, what most people didn't know was that he and Gilbert were friends, Gilbert being one of the few people (he was actually the only one, even Alfred, Matthew's older brother, forgot about Matthew) that could see Matthew without a problem. He blushed as he saw Gilbert wink at him and quickly looked away, turning to go to his locker. Once he got there he realized that he had already grabbed everything he needed and cursed Gilbert in his head. Now he was going to have to run to his class in order to get there before the bell rang.
Checking to see that there were no teachers in the hallway, Matthew clutched his belonging to his chest and ran for his class. His teacher barely looked up as the door opened and when she did, it was like she didn't see him come in. Matthew sighed but thanked his invisibility. In times like these, it was pretty handy.
"Birdie! Birdie, c'mere!" A loud voice said in the back of the room. Matthew looked up and smiled at the sight of Gilbert, waving his arms around in order to get Matthew's attention. Not only did this action get Matthew's attention, it also got the attention of their teacher.
"Beilschmidt! Stop making noise! And you," She said sharply, pointing at Matthew, "take a seat before the bell rings!" Matthew hurried down the rows of desks until he got to the back. He sat at the desk next to Gilbert and tried not to look too pleased at the "This Desk Belongs To Birdie" note on his desk. Many people wanted to sit next to Gilbert all the time and so, the note came to be. Gilbert carried it around and in classes he shared with Matthew, placed it on the desk nearest to him. Of course this didn't always work because Gilbert was usually anything but early for classes. Matthew looked at Gilbert gave him a tired smile.
"Hey Gil," He said, "haven't seen you in a while."
"Of course you haven't!" Gilbert exclaimed. "We've been in summer vacation this whole time." He said a bit condescendingly, but his smile more than made up for the barbs in his conversation.
"Really? I must have blinked and missed it!" Matthew shot back sarcastically. They both looked at each other before they burst out laughing.
"Beilschmidt! Jo-Williams! Quiet!" Their teacher said, mistaking Matthew for his brother before realizing that she had the misfortune of having him the next class period. Matthew quickly quieted down, the mistake his teacher made being more sobering than cold water. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on the person), Gilbert was too used to getting shouted at by authority teachers to care too much. He heard her mistake and decided that a little revenge on his (cute) friend's part was necessary.
"Of course, supreme lady in authority. I just have one question," he said, smiling charmingly to dissuade any thoughts that he was up to no good.
"Make it quick." The teacher said.
"Did you not have any coffee this morning? Because I'm pretty sure that we have no Jones in our class." Gilbert said innocently. The students snickered at the show of disrespect from Gilbert, but settled down as soon as she glared at them.
"I thank you for your concern but the topic has no relevancy to what we will be discussing today." She said coldly, before standing up and putting on a smile. "I hope you all read your book over the summer because we are having a test today." She said vindictively. Students groaned but they knew better than to turn and glare at Gilbert, who was smiling wickedly at Matthew.
"Oh Gil." Matthew said, shaking his head in mock disappointment before getting up to get a test.
"Get me one too Birdie!" Gilbert shouted.
"Beilschmidt! Be quiet!" Their teacher hissed.
"Yes, supreme lady in authority, ma'am." He said under his breath, causing the few students seating near him to laugh. She fixed her glare on them before choosing to glare at Gilbert, who just cheekily waved and smiled. Matthew chose that moment to return, and instantly regretted it as she chose to glare at him for getting Gilbert a test paper.
"Why do I get myself in these types of situations?" He moaned quietly to himself.
"That's 'cause you love me!" Gilbert said triumphantly.
"Oh shut up Gil!" Matthew said smiling.
"Ja." Gilbert said almost agreeably before looking down at his test.
