The Next Day…

The sun had just started to venture over the horizon, when our little Filia started making her way to her teaching career. She usually had no problem getting up early for her duties; it was a joy to her to teach children the basics of magic and on top of that a true blessing to know magic.

Not everyone in the area could do magic, so performing big magic was illegal in the city. Not that Filia took any mind of it, though some small spells that could be done did come in handy. Like a simple light spell, or even a spell to keep a certain purple haired character out of her way!

Sigh. Why does Xellos keep bugging me? Sure we have known each other since high school, but I know his type! He isn't the sweet guy he always acts to be! He's sneaky, annoying, and rude! Not to mention that smile! What's with him? He only does it to get me angry at him!

Another sigh. Oh well I can't let that guy get to me, no matter how persistent he is! Today he will definitely not push my buttons!

Without realizing it Filia had already made it to the Majestic school of Magic! Many other teachers were arriving to perform their class objective, except of course Xellos.

Before entering to her classroom, Filia always heard loud noises coming from within Xellos classroom, which was beside hers.

It's always the same thing every day! I bet his own class doesn't even respect him! He always comes in at the last second to start class too! How did that guy ever become a teacher anyways?

Feeling a bit annoyed with the noise level, Filia opened the door to see what the children were doing. To her surprise they had been throwing crumbled up pieces of paper at each other, quickly she noticed the leader of this mischievous act, standing on top of front desk that belonged to Xellos.

"Alright everyone please clean up this mess, class will be starting soon." As if Ms. Filia was the voice of reason, everyone started cleaning up and throwing away their paper. The red haired Lina had even stepped down from the desk, and grinned at the teacher.

"Hey Missy will you be teaching class today?" asked a long haired blonde from the third row.

"No Hun, I just came in to see what the noise was all about, every one of you always seem to be so loud on Monday mornings." Filia gave a small smile with her hands on her hips.

"Though instead of throwing paper around, you all should be preparing for class to start!"

The red haired girl started to speak up. "For what? It's not like we actually learn anything from that guy! He's a total joke!" The rest of the students kept quiet, not wanting to start an argument between the teacher and student.

Shocked, Filia pointed a finger at the young girl. "You shouldn't speak to your superior's like that young lady, even if they might be a bad teacher!"

"Pfft, whatever" spoke Lina in a voice loud enough for Filia to hear. "That's enough young lady, go to the principal's office!"

All too quickly Lina packed up and left the room, heading out the door with a slam.

Well that was weird, I wasn't expecting to send someone to the principal's office so early..

She watched as the door closed, looking back at the students. "Ahem, well everyone please take out your textbooks and start reading where you last left off on, I hear there might be a pop quiz today."

As soon as Filia had mentioned a quiz, the children quickly started taking their books out, reviewing there last subject matter.


Good looks like my plan worked, I didn't want to be in there anyways, seeing that guy again would have been way too weird after what happened this weekend, at least not till tomorrow.

Lina had been wondering about Xellos since the Library, how he saved her from those flights of stairs. It made her heart flutter the way he looked up at her and carried her down, but she quickly took the idea out of her head. Come on Lina snap out of it! I shouldn't be thinking this way about my teacher its way to gross! She held onto her books with her eyes closed trying to take the image out of her head.

SLAM!

Ooow what gives?

Opening her eyes Lina had accidentally bumped into someone, causing her books and bag to fall as well. She was sitting on the floor with her hands behind her for support, eventually the slight daze from her eyes drifting away. Realizing then that a purple haired man was just opposite of her in the same position she was in.

There was always a smile on the man's face, no matter what the situation even if it had to be shown as forced sometimes.

"Oh! Morning Miss. Lina, I'm terribly sorry about bumping into you like this." He had a hand reach behind his neck with his head slightly leaning to the right. "I didn't see you as I was rushing to class, and by the way it's the opposite of where you're heading" he pointed out matter of factly.

"Ya I know that" she stated quickly, starting to recollect her books.

"Hm? Do you need to be somewhere else?" he had started to help collect her things as well.

"I just got kicked out of class." The statement made Xellos stop for a second, looking at Lina.

"What a new record, getting kicked out of class without me addressing it!" The smile he had been wearing seemed to be even brighter than before.

His reaction made her blush slightly. "Ya, well, what of it!" He handed her books back to her; she quickly snatched them out of his hands.

A few people were around, however walking too quickly to even pay attention to what was going on between the two.

"Well Miss. Lina if you want you can return back to class with me, no harm done." He started to stand up, patting his black pants slightly to stroke the dust off a little. He held out a hand to Lina, giving her his trademark smile.

She stood up on her own, keeping her books to her chest making sure they wouldn't fall again. "I guess, it's better than sitting in a principles office." Her body had turned around, away from his hand and smile, a faint rosy hint of blush appearing on her cheeks.

Xellos had taken back his hand, still smiling. He leaned over near her left ear. "You know Miss. Lina today might have been a bad day to wear a skirt." After his sly remark, Xellos had started walking away from Lina stating quickly. "We better hurry, the bell is sure to ring soon!"

Lina stood there for a few seconds, his words sinking in. THERE'S NO WAY! He had his eyes closed the whole time! A panic face came across her features, dropping her books yet again. Na, there's just no way he saw anything, there's just no way! He's messing with me, definitely!

As she quickly started to pick up her books, she headed in the direction back to class, wondering if her teacher had in fact just been teasing her.


Well it's been a few minutes; this should keep them occupied till there, always late, teacher finally comes in!

Filia had felt accomplished, having settled down a class of twenty two children into reviewing for their non-existent quiz. A small white lie to accomplish the goal of learning!

Filia had started walking to the door stating that Mr. Xellos will be coming in soon, so as to not cause another ruckus. Closing the door behind her, she turned around to find none other than Xellos himself.

"Ah! My little dragon! I didn't get the pleasure of having a small chat with you yet this morning, like on those rare days. Perhaps over lunch?", a slight twitch of the eyebrow appeared on Filias face. She quickly slid to her left getting a good distance away from Xellos.

"Mr. Xellos", she crossed her arms, looking at him disappointed. "You really should be here earlier like the rest of the teachers; I had to take care of your class today!" Filia quickly raised her chin to her right, giving an 'hmph' sound.

"Ah pardon me Miss. Filia, but does that mean you actually walked into my classroom? Nothing like that has ever happened before! Perhaps I should make my students become even louder if you were to venture inside again!" Xellos wagged a finger at Filia, irritating her slightly.

"Xellos don't you dare!" Just then a familiar red haired girl came from a few feet behind Xellos.

"Hey you're supposed to be in the principal's office!" Just as Lina was about to fight back, Xellos gladly intervened. "Well you see Filia, I accidentally bumped into Miss. Lina on her way there, so as an apology I've allowed her to return to class."

Filia was watching the young girl, then shrugged off the past remark she had made. "Anyways Xellos if you excuse me I have a class to teach befo-"

Ding-Ding-Dong-Ding!

"Ooooh! Xellos!" With a frustrated look, hands clutched besides her, Filia entered her class room with a slight show of anger.

I've never been late before! I should have already started my lecture! Looking back Filia noticed Xellos had already entered his classroom, leaving her to feel a bit better for his disappearance.


Xellos had held the door open for Lina, who hesitantly walked past him into the classroom. She smiled at her various classmate friends, sitting to the front, the only available seat.

"As you all might notice Miss. Lina is back from her little time out section, but enough of that let us all start the day with a…" Xellos had walked to his desk, placing his suitcase on top, opening to reach quite a few papers out "Tah-Dah! A Pop-Quiz!"

There was a slight joy among many of the student's faces, studying before a quiz really did help with the grade.


Authors notes:

So what did you guys think? I tried mixing viewpoints just so there is more idea of whats going on in everyone's head, also keeps the story in my opinion. There still hasn't been much Filia and Xellos love teasing being done, its of course Filia still cant stand Xellos! Lina might be developing a small crush but who knows? She also hates Xellos! There is just so much hate in this fic.. not enough love!

Is Xellos a little weird in this chapter? Please review! It makes me smile and I'm much faster to updating!
