~Normal POV

It was an unfortunate fact that Klaus didn't have all his Whitmore Academy classes with Isadora. In fact, he only had 3 classes with her; English, math, and history. His other four classes were switched around between him and one or more of his other dorm mates. Science class, with Mrs. Shultz, was the only class he had with Fiona and no one else. This wasn't a bad thing. Klaus and Fiona were friends and dorm-mates, and she was dating Isadora's triplet brother Quigley. The two sat next to each other at their lab table waiting for class to start.

"Alright, everyone, settle down," Mrs. Shultz commanded; she went around the tables passing out papers, "I have an assignment for you today. I'm going to have you work in groups of three on an experiment. Just follow the instructions on these packets and work together. Remember, no tasting or smelling the chemicals or you're going to get sick! Now everyone get in groups of three, not four, not five, three! I have papers to grade from my other class so don't bother me unless it's important. Now get to it, and work quietly."

The students all began scrambling around trying to find their friends to work with. Klaus and Fiona simply smiled at each other and began reading over their assignment. They didn't know anyone else in the class anyway.

"Excuse me?"

The two looked up to see a girl had joined their table. She looked to be somewhere between Klaus and Fiona's ages and, for some reason, her school uniform was clearly a size too small. Fiona raised a brow at this obviously promiscuous girl. The mycologist couldn't help noticing the girl was far too interested in staring at Klaus. This wasn't good.

"Uh, can we help you," Klaus asked politely.

The girl smiled flirtatiously at him, "Yeah can I work with you two? Everyone else is already full. My name is Aubrey."

Klaus looked at Fiona and shrugged, "I'm ok with it if you are."

Fiona gave Aubrey a wary look. She didn't want to agree to work with this girl, but there wasn't really a choice in the matter. If she declined then it wouldn't matter because their teacher might force them to work together anyway. With a polite smile, Fiona agreed to work with her, and she and Klaus introduced themselves.

"Isadora's gonna flip when she sees this bitch hitting on her man."

Aubrey happily sat down on the stool on Klaus' other side, and the three began their assignment. All throughout their work, Fiona kept a watchful eye on Aubrey through her triangle-shaped glasses. She couldn't ignore Aubrey's flirting. This girl was obviously far more interested in Klaus than her grade. And as Isadora's friend, Fiona felt it was her job to protect Klaus from unsavory girls like this. Klaus and Isadora were incredibly happy together, Fiona and everyone else could see that they were absolutely devoted to one another, so it was only fair to be a good friend and keep away the bitches who would dare to mess with such a happy relationship. After some time of the three working on their experiment, Fiona noticed Klaus stealthily slip her a note while Aubrey wasn't looking.

Help! Aubrey just put her hand on my leg and I can't get her to let go! Isadora's going to be furious!

Fiona pretended to drop her pencil and leaned down to pick it up. Sure enough, she could see that Aubrey had indeed put her hand on Klaus' thigh and clearly had no intention of moving it. Fiona quickly sat back up and wrote out a reply.

Want me to tell the teacher?

No I just need an escape. Fast. What if I "accidentally" pour one of these chemicals on her hand?

Don't! Too risky! ...Unless Isadora doesn't want kids ;)

...Good point; other ideas?

Switch seats with me.

Will she listen?

Will it matter? She's been giving you the bedroom eyes all class and you're a happily taken man! You either switch seats with me, or she thinks about moving her hand elsewhere. Take your pick.

Got it, switch seats! I owe you for this; you're a lifesaver!

Fiona cleared her throat to get Aubrey's attention, "Klaus and I are going to switch seats. I need to be closer to these jars on the other side for this next part of the work."

Aubrey's mouth pressed into a very forced smile, "Ok I understand."

Klaus mouthed a thank you to Fiona as he quickly moved to switch with her. The plan worked for now. Fiona tried to hold back a smirk at Aubrey's obvious frustration at the seating. However, after several more minutes of working, Fiona received a note from Aubrey this time.

Listen you little bitch, I don't care if you're his girlfriend. He's hot, I want him, and I'm way prettier than you!

Fiona held back her laughter at the insinuation before replying.

Klaus isn't my boyfriend; we're friends. He's dating one of my best friends Isadora Quagmire. I'm dating her brother Quigley.

Then why are you keeping me from him?!

Because Isadora said I can be a bridesmaid at their wedding! And there's no way in HELL any of us are missing that wedding! So fuck off you iceberg, you're not sinking the Kladora ship on my watch. And for the record, Isadora is way prettier than you.

Aubrey's jaw dropped open at that. The next thing that happened was Aubrey, in a fit of jealous anger, "accidentally" mishandled a beaker of chemicals, and Fiona shrieked out in pain as the liquid burned the skin on her left hand. Mrs. Shultz hurried over to their table as Klaus set about grabbing their papers to prevent them from being damaged. Klaus quickly explained what really happened, he had seen the whole thing, and Mrs. Shultz thankfully believed him.

"Miss Widdershins, go wash your hand immediately before that wound gets worse, make sure you wash it thoroughly. Mr. Baudelaire, help Miss Black clean up this mess, and when you're finished," She pointed to Aubrey, "You can go directly to the principal's office," She then pointed at Klaus, "And you go take Fiona to the nurse."

Fiona hurried off to the girls' bathroom to clean her wound. Klaus and Aubrey began cleaning the lab table after putting away their papers. Klaus was glaring at Aubrey through his glasses the whole time.

"What's your problem," She asked him lowly so the other students wouldn't hear.

"My problem? My problem is that you just poured acid on my friend's hand," Klaus snapped at her.

"It was an accident!"

Klaus rolled his eyes, "I saw it; you did it on purpose. Look, you're interested in me whatever, I have a girlfriend! Her name is Isadora Quagmire; we've been together for over a year now and we're very happy together. And even if I didn't have a girlfriend, did you really think I'd go out with you after you poured acid on my friend?"

Aubrey smirked, "I bet I'm better in bed than your girlfriend."

Klaus gave her a wide-eyed look of shock and didn't reply. He finished cleaning up the mess and grabbed his and Fiona's school bags before telling Mrs. Shultz he was going to take Fiona to the nurse. He stopped in front of the girls' bathroom and patiently waited for her to come back out. Once she joined him, she took her bag from him and the two set off to the nurse's office.

"How's your hand?"

"It hurts, but it only made a small wound," She showed him her left hand which now had a nasty red mark on it.

"I'm sorry that this happened."

Fiona shrugged, "Ah, it's not your fault. She'll get in plenty of trouble for it."

"Listen, Fiona, thank you so much for helping me with her. You're a great friend, and I really owe you for that."

Fiona chuckled, "Hey I did that for Isadora too. I'm not letting the Kladora ship sink on my watch."

Klaus smiled, "Thank you. What can I do to pay you back? Anything you want, except money I'm saving up for a present for Isadora..."

Fiona thought for a moment before smirking at him, "Switch rooms with me tonight."

Klaus' smile faded instantly, "But then you sleep with Quigley- oh... I can't do that. Duncan and Quigley would murder me if I slept alone in a room with Isadora. It wouldn't matter what we did or didn't do!"

"I'll handle Quigley for you, and we let Duncan and Violet sleep in the same room anyway. Come on just for tonight? Quigley and I want some alone time."

Klaus considered her offer. "You're sure that, at least, Quigley won't try to kill me?"

"I'm positive; and I'll tell Violet to take care of Duncan for you too."

The two stopped in front of the nurse's office before he finally responded, "Ok I'll do it. But if I hear anything from that room tonight I will disinfect everything it."

Fiona laughed, "Oh please, Quigley and I aren't stupid. If we wanted to do that we'd leave the dorm first."

~...

Fiona was happily snuggled up in Quigley's arms as the two slept soundly. Switching rooms with Klaus, even for one night, was already a wonderful decision. She had a bandage wrapped around her left hand now, but getting to sleep in her loving boyfriend's arms made it so worth it.

Knock knock

That is until her peaceful slumber was interrupted by a soft knock on the door. Quigley, being a heavy sleeper, was undisturbed so Fiona got up, put on her glasses, and opened the door to see Isadora smiling at her.

"You need something," Fiona asked softly.

Isadora hugged her and whispered, "Klaus told me what happened today. You're an amazing friend. Thank you so much for taking that girl down a peg for me. And I am so sorry you got hurt in the process."

Fiona smiled, "You're welcome, Izzie, anything for my friends."

Isadora was about to walk away but stopped and added in a quiet but excited tone, "And thanks for switching rooms with Klaus!"

She let out a small giggle before quickly walking back into her room and shutting the door. Fiona smirked as she shut the door and got back in bed with Quigley.

"And he thought I'd do something tonight but they're obviously having their own fun in there... even if it is innocent. Those two are so adorable together... but Quigley and I are cuter. What can I say? I'm biased."

~The End!

Kliona friendship one shot for the win. And no Klaus and Isadora weren't doing anything bad when they slept in the same room that night; they're smarter than that, and they're too young for such things. Bye!
