A/N: Hi readers! So guess what? Today, I was taking my PSAT, and an excerpt about Wuthering Heights was on it! I thought of my story and all you lovely readers. I just thought I'd share. And about the Aleks X Ana pairing, I wanted to clarify that it isn't the main pairing, but I accidently made their relationship like potential romantics, more than friends. I hadn't recognized it, so I thought, hey let's put a love triangle in there. :D So here's chapter five.

*Allison's POV*

I couldn't stop fidgeting for the life of me! I was tapping my pencil, and even my fingers. Classes were forever boring at this point. And Austria wasn't in my class, so it was sort of unbearable.

My nieces, Kayla and Veronica, were also in my class. I think I cared for them more than Al did! Liam also took a bit of a responsibility for Louisiana, but that was about it.

Spain nudged Feliciano Vargas' arm, and passed him a note. Ugh. Note-passing was a waste of time. It wouldn't teach you anything in life.

Romania sat beside me, poking me in the shoulder. "Bun, Allison. How are you?"

"I'm fine. How are you, Vlad?"

"I'm quite bored and exhausted. Otherwise, I'm pretty good."

I nodded several times, and watched him stride back to his assigned seat. He DID look very tired. He had heavy bags under his eyes, and he was slouching. That poor Romanian. He needed to rest up, and be refreshed for school.

I sat beside Louisiana. He was one of the southern states, reminding me a bit of France. I hadn't minded. Just as long as he's not a pervert.

"Hello, Louis. Who are you talking to?"
"I'm talking to Selicia. Say hello, Allison."

Although I couldn't see her, I couldn't say she was unreal. I knew things existed that couldn't be seen by the naked eye. I believed in spirits, and things of that nature, so I believed in Selicia.

"Hello, Selicia. I'm Allison. It's nice to meet you," I greeted. What he was talking to looked like nothing other than a shadow. That was fine. I wasn't going to judge.

The class was getting rowdy. New students were transferring into the class. Roderich was one of them. I had to admit, I had the biggest crush on him. The Austrian could still be in love with Elizabeta, but I didn't care. I would capture his heart no matter what!

*Veronica's POV*

I can't believe Russia transferred into my class! I was SO excited. I was trying to contain all of my joy, but I was soon about to bubble over.

I approached the platinumblonde, and flashed him a sweet smile. "Hello, Ivan. Welcome to the class." Thank goodness for Californian hospitality!

He gave me his sweet smile, but behind it was evil, and that was a bit alluring. "Spasibo(1), Veronica. It's very nice of you to say that."

"I hope you find the company worth speaking with." I had to show a bit of kindness to him. He WAS Russia after all. He represented one of the biggest countries in the world.

He nodded and strolled to his seat.
I watched Britain and France partake in a heated argument. It was all about whose political status was better. That REALLY got the whole class in on it. Even Amelia, the sarcastic American, who is Allison's twin sister. She even had an opinion.

The bell rang, and students flowed out of the classroom, and toward the elevator. This was the kind of day where everything got crammed. It took most of us about an hour to get to our dorms. It was quite hectic.

I saw Anasztázia walk towards me, as did Aleks. He and she were inseparable these days. They were so alike, and I didn't mind Aleks. His Scandinavian roots were really interesting.

Before Ana and Aleks could reach me, I went into the elevator, and was caught in there with none other than Russia. It was awkward, but one of us had to say a word.

"So, what floor is your dorm on?" I said quizzically.

"I am on the sixth floor. Belarus and Ukraine are on that floor as well. A lot of Europeans are," he explained in his quiet, innocent voice.

I'm not sure why people feared him so much. He seemed so kind and gentle… But maybe there was more to his smile. Maybe he was more sinister.

I got off at the first floor, waving good-bye to the Russian. I couldn't keep thinking about this. I had a great day, and that wouldn't ruin it!

*Amelia's POV*

Ugh. Study groups at the library. Allison insisted. She WAS my little sister after all. I aimed to please.

She invited Svalbard, Budapest, Louisiana, and Maria Vargas. We were all friends here, yes. But I only wished that she invited Lovino. I haven't seen him around school, and I knew Maria had seen him. She knew I had the desire to visit him, and yet she didn't bring him. That was just brilliant.

"Calculus? You've got to be kidding me," Allison muttered.

Svalbard looked up from his book occasionally. "It isn't too bad. Norway taught it to me when I was in my high school years. You just need a good tutor."

I chuckled. Allison was too caught in her optimism to get logistics. I got calculus, but I know Ally doesn't.

Romania sat down at our library table. Who invited HIM?

Anasztázia looked up, and brushed her light brown locks out of her face. "I invited Vlad. I thought it'd be rude if I hadn't asked him to come. After all, I still owe him for the frying pan incident."

"How very… Kind of you," he responded.

Svalbard stopped writing for a moment. "Anyone need help right now?"

Maria raised her hand above her head, and waved it around wildly. "I do. Math just ISN'T my subject. Well, Algebra isn't anyway. I learned geometry through my fashion designs."
Svalbard sat beside her, and guided her through a problem. He seemed kind, and helpful. Not a bother to any of us Americans, and that's what counted the most.

"So, who's taking the anatomy course right now?" Romania probed, looking at the group.

"I am," Allison answered. "Sadly, I have Germany in that class. He can be such a pain."

Maria squealed childishly. "Germany? He and his brother, Prussia are AMAZING. I love Germans."

Vlad inched away uneasily. "That's not an odd obsession of anything." He came back to his normal spot, and beamed. "At least you're passionate about it. That's all that matters."
We all looked back down at our books. Romania was indeed working on anatomy with Allison. Svalbard was discussing the English lecture with Louis. I was stuck listening to Maria speak about fashion. Not my interest, but what can I say? I set myself up for that .

"Who wants to go to the café after studying?" I heard Ana ask us all. Surprisingly, we all muttered in confirmation.

I was surprised that Kayla wasn't here, but maybe she was studying alone. Who knows? No one is her keeper.

"I've finished Calculus homework," Svalbard blurted out, picking up his books. "I've new books from the library if anyone is interested."

Ana jumped to the opportunity, and read through all the book titles that were available to her. She took half of them, and tucked them away safely in her tote.

Aleks chuckled. The two seemed to get along better than anything. Romania had that jealous look on his face. He was like a book. Every emotion he was feeling came out onto his face without warning. He was obviously jealous of Ana and Aleks' relationship. It was quite clear.

Ana stood to her feet, and led all of us to the café.

"We're supposed to eat tropical foods? I'm used to creamy Italian food," Maria complained, frowning.

"It's not too bad. You'll see," Ana reassured.

Allison and I both ordered some coconut water. We both didn't have an appetite right now.

Romania ordered Ahi Poke, which was basically a bunch of fish, with seaweed. It looked a bit outrageous, but he seemed to have a certain liking to it.

Svalbard decided to try the same thing. He was used to the cold of the Arctic, so I'm sure fishing was big there.

"May I try some, Vlad? I mean, I know a big boy like you would finish it on your own but…"

The fang-possessing Romanian shoved a forkful of fish in Ana's mouth to shut her up for the time being.

His usual friendly nature wasn't there these days. Ever since he came here, his friendliness faded. He still had a strong fervidness for Black magic, but without his kindness, Romania wasn't really himself.

Ana sipped her coconut water she ordered as well, and looked down at the tiny handbook in front of her. She jotted down a few things in it, and sipped her water again.

"Anyone have any ideas for cute fall fashion that already has not been invented?"

Allison frowned. "Maria… Don't you have an anatomy test to study for? Fashion shouldn't come first." She stood to her feet. "I have to go yell at Al, if you'll excuse me." She turned on her heels, and left.

Svalbard had to retreat back to the library to return some books, and Louisiana had to go consult France about something. Maria didn't want to hear the lectures so she left.

This left Ana, Vlad, and I at the table. It was quite odd, and the silence was ill at ease. We all had no clue what to say.

"Well, I'll be off now. I have some black magic to attend to. England won't be happy if I'm late." Vlad then left as well.

Ana and I decided to go back to our dorms. Sadly, we had nothing planned for today.

School, on top of social issues, would set up for a reasonably interesting school year.

*Maria's POV*

I went to Lovino's dorm, and let me tell you. The damn Italian babied me like he didn't have any other siblings. He was forgetting about poor Feliciano.

"Maria, where were you? I was waiting for you after classes."

Oh. My. Gosh. This was NOT what I wanted RIGHT when I returned home. I loved Lovino with all my heart, but I didn't like the attention right when I got home.

I hugged him tightly, and then exited again. I went to go see Feliciano. He was the dreamer.

Once I walked into his dorm, he was doing the usual. He was making pasta. I didn't want to bother him, so I placed myself on the couch.

I started doodling and dreaming, just like Feliciano. I pondered on today's happenings. Overall, it was a really nice day.

A/N: Tried so hard on this chapter XD I hope it came out good. 3
