Seeking Solace

"Excuse me, everyone! Quieten down, please. That's it, thank you." The tour guide waved his hands around until he had everyones attention, slightly annoyed that today he had to lead a primary school class around everywhere. It made the job so much harder and yet he still only got the same amount of pay.

The students all grouped together, looking towards the tour guide and occasionally glancing around at the artworks that were displayed on the walls around them.

"Now," the tour guide began. "If you look over here you can see.." The students looked where they were told and sighed as all the information being said went in one ear and out the other. The teacher looking after them wasn't having much fun either.

"Excuse me, miss." A quieter student at the back of the group tugged gently on the teacher's sleeve.

"Oh, yes?" she looked down at her student curiously.

"Um, I can't see Genny anywhere." came the reply. The teacher immediately raised her head to look around the small group, searching for Genesis whom everyone called Genny. Sure enough, the young red-headed boy was nowhere to be found.

"Goodness, do you know where he is?" the teacher asked, beginning to panic. The student shook their head and the teacher walked up to the tour guide, interrupting him and explaining the situation.

"We shall all search!" the tour guide said to the students cheerily. They nodded their agreement eagerly and were soon sent off in two groups. One group went with the tour guide and the other went with the teacher.

After quite a while of searching, the group with the teacher arrived upon a small room with artworks of angels, the brightly shining wings captured perfectly on canvas. In the back corner sat Genesis Rhapsodos, his head buried in a book.

"Genesis! How dare you scare us all like that." the teacher walked over to him quickly, towering over him.

"Ah, what?" Genny looked up, yanked from the world of his book and thrown relentlessly into reality again.

"Genesis Rhapsodos.." the teacher muttered, a small smile tugging at her lips. "When will you get over your love for LOVELESS?" she questioned. Genesis' cheeks tinged red and his grip tightened on his LOVELESS book.

"Never." he mumbled. "Besides, she needs me."

"Who needs you?" the teacher questioned, amused.

"The.. the goddess." Genesis said. His cheeks flushed brighter and he stood up, ducking his head in embarrassment.

"Come on, we need to go join everyone else." the teacher said, leading him out of the room. "Why did you go in there anyway?"

"I.. like to be alone when reading." he stuttered. The teacher sighed and chuckled.

"Genny, you're one of a kind."

Authors Notes:

Seeking Solace. One of the 100 non-yaoi Genesis Rhapsodos themes that I'm doing. If you would like to do it too, go ahead. The more stories of Genesis that aren't yaoi, the better.

Anyway, I don't really know where this came from hehe but I like it all the same XD

Yeah.. this is one of 100... bleh
