So, after responding to all my reviews, I shall now start with the next chapter. C: I 'm sure there are a few people who wanted this update to come. Also, this is gonna be split between Antonio and Lovino, I will make it as un-confusing as possible. XD This is day after assembly where the principal announced that Arthur, Lovino, Matthew, and Gilbert would no longer be in school. So school is once again, in session.

Antonio stared blankly at the markerboard the teacher was writing on. It was almost as if everything was moving in slow motion. He didn't have Gilbert to cheer him up and make the class go by so much faster, so now it was like they were stuck in an endless time loop. Endless time loop of lectures. Feliciano sitting two seats in front of him wasn't helping. Of course the student in between them was absent today so Antonio was now staring at the back of the Italian's head.

.

Lovino sighed. He was sitting in what resembled a school-classroom, near Arthur, Matthew, and Gilbert since they were all from the same school. Lovino slumped over his desk with a heavy sigh. Somehow the classes they taught at school were a lot more interesting than this. When were they allowed to go home again? When their classmates changed their view of the assemblies? That was going to be a long time. Lovino looked up at the slideshow they were watching. Normally he would be sleeping through this kind of thing, but the teacher was walking around the room making sure everyone was awake, so much for that.

.

Antonio sat up, trying to focus on what the teacher was saying. He knew guidance was open if anyone needed to go down, but he was trying to resist the urge to leave in the middle of class. It was only the first one of the day. This just keeps dragging on! Antonio leaned to the side a bit and saw Feliciano was texting someone. Probably Ludwig. He didn't know who else Feli would be texting. Antonio shook his head with a sigh. If he didn't start paying attention soon, he was sure he was going to fail that test that was coming up soon.

"Alright class. I know I only have a couple of you paying attention…would anyone who needs to leave the room just do so?" The teacher turned and looked at the students.

Antonio stared at the markerboard behind the teacher. No way. Not going to be going to guidance in the middle of the first class of the day. He noticed that Feliciano had turned around to give him a questioning look. Antonio ignored it and continued staring at the front of the room. 'Go back to your texting.'

Lovino tilted his head slightly, trying to remain awake. Another slide. Another reason to gag as soon as he left the room. Were these classes actually rated to help anything? They were helping his gag reflex just fine. Seriously.

He almost jumped at Gilbert's voice whispering in his ear, "If you feel the familiar feeling of despair falling over you, don't be afraid to get help~"

Lovino quickly clapped a hand over his mouth to restrain the laughter. The albino was making fun of the slide that had just been showing on the screen, which apparently he had gotten as much from as Lovino did.

"Talk to a friend or a teacher that's nearby if you're in school~" Gilbert continued on, quoting the slide word for word.

Lovino looked over his shoulder at the german who was grinning broadly, "You are having way too much fun with this."

"Ja, of course~" Gilbert kept on grinning, "Don't have anything else to do."

"Try listening." Arthur looked back at Gilbert. His seat was to the left of Lovino's.

"I am. Didn't you hear my awesome quote?" Gilbert smirked.

"Obviously not. I was listening to the slide." Arthur sighed. Was he seriously listening to all these?

"Yeah well, you let me know if you learn anything from this." Gilbert waved a hand carelessly, much to Lovino's amusement. Clearly Gilbert wasn't even going to be bothered with this.

Lovino turned as he heard the door open and the teacher stepped out for a moment. The other students in the room all seemed to be, more or less, watching the slideshow, though he was half-wondering if some of them had just fallen asleep with their eyes open. Lovino shifted in his seat to look at the blonde who sat behind Arthur, "Are you listening to this?"

"Eh? Not really." Matthew slumped across his desk, "How are we supposed to talk to people about what we're feeling? Are we going to get counselor buddies or something when we get back to school?"

Lovino heard a muffled laughed and looked to see that Gilbert had tried, and failed, to restrain the responsive laughter.

"If they give me a counselor buddy I will deck the guy over the head and stuff him in the closet." Gilbert smirked, apparently now able to control himself.

Lovino shook his head with a laugh. At least he had three other people with him to talk to.

.

.

Antonio, despite all protests with the teacher, now sat in guidance. Geez. He leaned back, hitting the back of his head against the wall. He did not want to be down here. Antonio glanced around the room. The teacher had decided that Antonio did not well enough to be in class and firmly told him to go to guidance. Why he was the one down here and not Feliciano was beyond him. Lovino was Feliciano's brother, so how come he was the one who needed guidance? This was ridiculous! Clearly, Feliciano had more people to talk to than he did.

"Duuuude…" Alfred plopped down next to Antonio, "Did you just get sent down here, too?"

"Yeah." Antonio sighed. Apparently Alfred's teacher wasn't used to the quiet.

"Stupid teacher. I can't even be attentive without having someone be concerned about me." Alfred slumped in the chair, "I need Gilbert. Seriously. We need some serious laughter."

"Yeah." Antonio nodded, "I can't believe that guy isn't here…"

"I KNOW! What the heck? How does someone that full of life…" Alfred's voice trailed off and he hit his head up against the wall, much like Antonio had just a few minutes before.

Antonio sighed, but didn't respond.
