Chapter 4: Falling to math class
"Ciel!" Mey-rin ran up to the door where Ciel was leaving to his next class, "Th-thanks for apologizing to meh! I'm sorry if my voice is like this, it annoys dem other people too."
"It's okay, just don't talk too much." Ciel waved and left the classroom. So next class is math, with Mr. Spears.
Ciel awkwardly smiled as he saw that math was his next class subject, he had always been good in math, so maybe this class would make his day a bit happier. On his way there, he saw a tall man, with slick black hair and deep red eyes. He couldn't take his eyes off him, something about him made this man so interesting. Blushing, he quickly turned to face away from him, but he tripped on one of his untied shoelaces.
"Ahhhhh!" Ciel shouted as the books flew out of his hands to the floor and he started to fall as well. He quickly shut his eyes, ready to feel the pain of his face hitting against the floor. But, he didn't fall. He opened his eyes and stared at the floor. He felt something, a hand, pulling him up by his waist. He turned his head to find that same man, with black hair and red eyes, carrying him in his arms.
"Are you okay?" his voice was gentle, yet it pierced him like a knife.
"Y-yes." Ciel stuttered as he was got up into a standing position. The man handed him his books.
"That's good, be careful where you walk next time!" He smiled as the bell rang.
"Oh no! I'm going to be late!" he turned and ran down the hallway, "Thank you so much!"
"Wait, you forgot some-!" Ciel heard the man shout behind him as he ran outside the building. That was so embarrassing! His faced turned hot and red even though it was cold and rainy outside. He made it to the B building of the school and rushed towards the math room door.
"Mr. Phantomhive, I see that you are late." A tall man with slick black hair and a huge black notebook scoffed as he entered the room.
"I'm sorry; I got lost on my way here." Ciel laughed nervously as he looked around the room for an empty seat.
"Make sure it never happens again." The man glared at him with those similar green irises, which his 1st and 2nd period teachers had too, "Please sit next to Mr. Kadar."
Ciel did not know who Mr. Kadar was, but he guessed it was the purple haired kid, since he was the only one who had an empty seat next to him. He slowly made his way to the desk, set down his things quietly, and looked towards the front of the room.
"My name is Mr. Spears." The math teacher said, his voice was very serious and scary, and seemed to bring chills down the children's spines, "I will be your Geometry teacher for the rest of the year. I do not tolerate students or assignments being late. Is that understood?
"Yes, Mr. Spears." All the children said in unison, knowing that his teacher was the strictest one they have had so far.
"Mr. Spears, may I please use the bathroom?" the guy behind Ciel, whose name was Finnian asked.
Mr. Spears turned his head towards the happy-go-lucky boy and his eyes were so cold Ciel saw Finnian starting to tremble, "No."
This is probably going to be my worst period today, so long to having fun in math! He looked towards the board where the math teacher was explaining something that had to do with all the class rules. Staring at the clock, Ciel could not wait for his next class to start.
Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.
