Arthur POV
At lunch I parted from my friends and told them I needed to talk t\ the dean. The desk lady, Nataley smiled at me. "He's a little busy Arthur, feel free to wait he should be done in a few minutes" she said to me.
"Thanks Nat" I said flashing her a flirty grin, she blushed hard. I knew she had a bit of a thing for me, but I wasn't mad or embarrassed. It gave me a bit of leeway and who could deny my dashing good looks. I sit down in one of the comfy waiting chairs and pull out my phone. I log onto my Tumblr account and begin to scroll through my dashboard.
A few minutes later I hear the door open and the sound of shuffling feet reach my ears.
"Merlin, good to see you, Mr. Pendragon has been waiting your arrival all week, he knew you'd change your mind" I hear Nataley's soft voice sound in the room.
"Is he in a meeting ?" the stranger responds. I listen to their conversation without taking my eyes off my phone screen.
"Yes, though he should be through any minute and I will send you in, for now you can go sit by Arthur. At that time I decided to look up. The Merlin person turned around and we locked eyes. I felt it was one of those moments when you look a random person in the eye on accident and you're just like, well that was wasn't weird in the slightest. The pale boy's lips stretch into a close-mouthed smile. He walks toward me and he takes two steps before the sound of yelling fills the room. I immediately jump from my seat and flash Nataley a 'sorry' smile she just waves her hand as I open the Dean's office.
What I open the door to is hilarious but also sad. The dean is standing over someone's parent yelling at them and the parent seemed to shrink on their seat.
"Dad, Stop!" I yell at the man who Immediately shuts his mouth and begins to straighten his suit. I walk over to the mom sitting in a conference chair looking like she had seen a ghost.
I put my hand on her shoulder and say "I'm sorry you were treated hostile in this situation feel free to sue the school"
The lady gets up from the chair and leaves the room at nothing less than a run. I flash a smile toward my father and shut his office door, taking a seat in the recently vacant chair.
"What was that about?"
"Nothing, what do you want son?"
"I love you too dad, actually I wanted to talk to you about giving me a few honors classes" I say
The man laughs and says "Arthur why do you want to join honors classes, you have good grades but all your classmates say you sleep in class"
"Yeah but shouldn't that tell you something, if I am able to get straight A's while I'm 'sleeping' don't you think I should be able to get into honors classes and still pass?" I say
"I guess, i'll give you one month if your grades drop below a 95 then you are going back to normal classes."
"Okay, you won't regret it" I say my in relief.
"Yeah whatever, take the rest of the day off and I'll have Nataley print your schedule for tomorrow, now leave my office"
I exit his room and head toward the door, glancing quickly at the pale boy and I see a white t against a blue background. My lips stretch into a faint smirk.
Merlin POV
When the blond leaves the room I look up at Nataley she smiles at me sweetly and said "Mr. Pendragon will see you now" I quickly power my phone off and get up my feet moving me towards the dean's office.
I exit his office a few moments later. I sigh as I wave goodbye to Nataley, I have no clue what I'm going to do for the rest of the day. I reach my flat in ten minutes and Immediately head for the shower to wash away the icy feeling on my skin from the cold air outside.
I strip and wait for the steam to rise. Once I catch a glimpse of tiny wisps of steam I pull back the shower curtain and step in.
The scalding water feels miraculous against my icy skin, I stand there a moment as the water paints my skin red. I start at my hair, putting my head underneath the stream. I reach for my honey scented 3 in 1 and lather my hair and body. I watch as the water washes the suds down the drain.
I step out of the shower and wrap a towel around my waist before padding out of one room and into the other. I flop onto my bed and check my phone for messages, there's one from my friend Gwen.
"Where were you in science Coach Juneau is assigning a project" Gwen
"The dean said I could take the rest of the day off, he's switching me to honors" Merlin
"Okay" Gwen
I set my phone on my bedside table and shut my eyes.
When I wake up my phone chimes I grab for it and check the time 4:59 AM. I check my notifications and see the my new schedule has been emailed to me. My first class is honors science and It's taught by Coach Juneau at 8:50. Ugh! Early classes, I roll back over and go to sleep.
Arthur POV
My phone chimes rising me from sleep, my schedule has been printed. I open the document and read. My first class is honors science at taught by Coach Juneau at 8:50. I check the time, 5:06. I roll back over with a groan, I hate Early classes.
