"Hey, Vivian, are you okay? We heard you scream something and then Ashley McCollins ran off," Ciel says, scaring the short girl half to death.

"I'm fine. Just defended your honor.." She says, flashing him a fake smile.

He stares at her for a minute. She starts squirming, hoping he doesn't see through her fake smile. "You know, you don't have to lie to me," He says, sitting down next to her.

"I-I wasn't lying," She says, her eyes darting around.

"Yes, but your smile was false. What's bothering you?" He asks, looking over at her.

"It's nothing really. I'm just a little overwhelmed. I don't know why, but I'm starting to doubt I'm human. Hell, I'm starting to doubt I'm sane." She sighs. "And everyone is being so nice to me." She puts her head in her hands. "I just don't get it! What have I done to deserve this?! I've been nothing but mean to all of them!"

Ciel puts his hand on her back. "Maybe they just think you need a friend. You do look kind of lonely, even if you don't intend to. You stare off in space, and block everything out, as if you don't want anything in. Maybe, you should give them a chance. You never know, you could make a few friends. Though, if I were you, I wouldn't try hanging out with Ashley. She's kind of a bitch."

Vivian giggles lightly. "I could tell. As you probably know, I'm good at observing people." She looks up at him with lidded eyes and a soft smile on her face.

"Oh? From what I remember, you said you 'defended my honor' what exactly did you do?"

She giggles again before turning and looking forward. "I could tell she looked like a bitch, and she called you a 'poof', what ever the hell that means, so I accused her of both hitting on me and being 'in the closet'." She says, wrapping her arms around her knees. "You should have been there. The look on her face was priceless."

Ciel sighs. "So, in all today, you mocked Mr. Hellwit, one of the scariest teachers in the school, made Luke Hoddard blush, the boy who has no shame, scared Amanda Delica, who, from what I can tell, isn't scared of anything, and accused Ashley McCollins of being a lesbian that fancies you, who everyone knows is a full homophobe. Good job."

"I guess you could say those of the rites of passage you have to go through to become my friend," She nervously scratches the back of her neck. "Except Ashley. There's something about her that I can't trust.."

"You can say that again," Someone says above the two.

"Aah!" Vivian screams, whipping around and falling backwards on her butt. "How much of that conversation did you hear?!"

"Just the last few things you said," Luke says, smiling. "So, 'the rites of passage to become your friend', huh? Does that mean you're our friend now?"

She opens and closes her mouth a few times before giving him a death glare so scary it could rival Ciel's. "Sure?" She shrugs, rolling her purple eyes. She hates being a mean person, or letting people down, although she does enjoy a few pranks and jokes from time to time (and "from time to time" I mean she enjoys them often.)

"Well, I've had enough of this," Vivian stands up and brushes the dust from her skirt. "I'm going home. Come on, Ciel." She grabs his hand and pulls him up with her.

"Okay." He says, walking slightly behind her.

"Sorry, but people make me nervous. I feel like the only people I can trust right now is you, Klaus and Sebastian." She says letting go of his hand so they can pick up their things.

"Don't you have to stay for detention?" Ciel asks, picking up his school-bag.

"Fuck detention. I just wanna go home and watch anime~!" She whines. "I'll just skip today and go tomorrow!"

"I don't think you can do that," He says, sighing. "You'll get in more trouble than you're already in."

She sighs and rubs her temples, fighting off another headache. "Don't worry, Darkwing. I got detention for today and tomorrow too." Luke says, putting his hand on Vivian's shoulder. She quickly grabs his hand and twists his wrist. She turns around and lets go of his hand.

"Oh, it's just you!" She says, smiling. "Sorry 'bout that."

"God, you must have inhuman strength. That hurt!" He says, clutching his wrist.

"Whoops?" She scratches the back of her neck. "Ciel, you wouldn't mind waiting for another two hours, would you?"

"Not at all," He says, setting his stuff back down. "I can wait."

"Thanks!" She smiles, setting her stuff down and grabbing a book from the pile of books she was planning on checking out. She walks out of the library with Luke.

"Is that Attack on Titan?" He asks, pointing to the book in her hand.

"Mm-hm. Is manga not allowed in detention?" She asks, looking down at the 'book' in her hand.

"No, it's not that, it's just, I didn't know you'd like something like that," He says.

"Oh, well, there's a lot you don't know about me yet." She keeps walking until they get to the detention room.

"Darkwing! Hoddard! You're late!" The teacher yells.

"I had library duty," Vivian says with a bored expression on her face as she walks to the back of the class and sits at one of the desks.

Luke shrugs. "I was in the library?" He says more like a question than a statement. He walks to the back of the classroom and takes a seat next to Vivian.

Vivian leans back in her chair and kicks her feet up on the desk like in her first class. "So, how did you get into detention?" She asks Luke while keeping her eyes on the manga.

"I fell asleep in class," He says, shrugging.

"Oh," She says. "I thought it would be for throwing spit balls at the teacher or something."

"I did that too, I just didn't get caught," He says.

She smiles lightly at him. "You know, I think this the beginning of a beautiful friendship."
