~Alfred's P.O.V~

It was the first day of school after winter break and I have to say that I was pretty excited. But who wouldn't if they were going to be able too skip class and show the new students around school? It's also the perfect chance for me to win some new fans.

It started out great, my brother made pancakes, mom and dad were out of town for a business trip, and when I got to school I was able to do some harmless flirting since Kiku wouldn't be there today.

As soon as the bell rang I walked to the principals office where the new students were to get their schedule. I put on my signature smile and knocked on the door.

"Come in." Came Mr. Edelstein's stern voice.

I opened the door and proudly shouted in a totally awesome superhero pose, "THE HERO IS HERE!"

Unfortunately I didn't get the reaction that I was expecting. Instead of getting whispers of how amazingly hot and sexy I am, I got full on glares from the principal and the one and only student in the room.

"Mr. Jones, it's nice to see that you're finally here. This is Mr. Kirkland, he's a new student here at the academy. Please show him around and tell him how the school works. If I hear that you did bad anything from him then there will be trouble." He said with the most serious look I have ever seen him give me.

"Yes sir. But what about the other students?" I asked confused.

"There's no other students. He's the only one that passed the test this year. Got a very high score too." He said with a slight smile.

"Ok, well it's nice to meet ya. The names Alfred F. Jones but you can call me Alfred or Al." I said holding out my hand.

"Arthur Kirkland, It's a pleasure to meet you as well." He said in a very sexy and smooth English accent. He accepted it with a slight frown.

I took a second to look him over. He was pretty attractive, slight frame but obviously not weak, huge eyebrows that somehow matched his beautiful green emerald eyes. He was British and attractive. He could pass for a popular.

We left Mr. Edelstein's office soon after and I went to go show him around the school.

"Alright, so where do you want to go first?" I asked.

"The library."

"The library?" I asked, giving him a look before it dawned on me. "Oh, I get it. You want to get the boring stuff over with first. Good idea."

"No, I just want to check out some books." He said sounding offended.

Before I could answer he was already walking to the library.

"Don't worry about showing me around. Someone else showed me earlier." He said not looking back.

That was weird but oh well. This just gives me a chance to do whatever I want.

I spent the rest of first period and the second one on my phone in the boys bathroom. Unfortunately I had to go to third which was English.

I slowly made my way when someone grabbed my shoulder from behind and forcefully turned me around.

As expected it was Ludwig Beilschmidt a.k.a one of Kiku's best friends and my enemy.

"What do you want Beilschmidt?" I asked irritated.

"I want you to break up with Kiku."

"How many times do I have to tell you no?"

"You have no right to be in a relationship with him. If he knew half of the stuff you do when he's not around then he would have already left you." He said hardening his glare.

"Hey, he asked me out. It's not my fault if I want to be social."

"You're not being social. You're being a cheating bastard that goes off and lies to his boyfriend who he's supposed too be loyal to." He growled.

"Shut the fuck up. Now leave me alone before I turn the school against your little boyfriend." I threatened.

He gave me the bird before walking away saying, "this isn't over Jones."

I sighed. This was seriously getting annoying. When was he going to give up?

I walked in the classroom feeling irritated. I didn't speak to anyone during class.

~Arthur's P.O.V~

I stared at the building before me. It was surprisingly big for a school that only carried one thousand students. It was old and made out of stone with circle Windows and vines growing all over it yet it was obviously well taken care of.

After about ten minutes of staring I walked in the front doors. When I got in I wasn't surprised to see all sorts of groups of students. Nor was I surprised that they all hung out with their own kind.

I started walking down the hall trying to ask for directions but everyone either ignored me or gave me a weird look. Just as I was about to give up a blonde haired boy with a strange curling strand sticking out and violet coloured eyes walked over to me with a shy smile.

"Are you new?" He asked, his Canadian accent showing.

"Yes." I answered not really sure what to say.

"I figured. I've never seen you before. Do you need any help?" He asked kindly.

"Yes please. Everyone either ignores me or gives me strange looks."

"That's because everyone has their own social group. The only people that are aloud to hang out with more than one individual group are the populars." He explained.

"Wow, that sounds like a stereotypical movie scene." I said surprised.

"I know. But what can you do? So what did you need help with?"

"I'm lost. Could you take me to the principals office?" I asked.

"Sure, but how about I show you the rest of the school first?"

"Are you sure? I don't want to take up your time."

"It's no problem. My club won't be meeting up till after school and my boyfriend won't be here till later."

"Alright, thank you very much." I said gratefully.

At first we walked in awkward silence, Matthew telling me what room was what. But eventually Matthew began to ask me questions about my life.

"So, what was your old school like?"

"This is actually my first school. My father believed in homeschooling but unfortunately he passed away and my mum couldn't afford to a tutor. So we moved and here I am." I said as if it were nothing but in actuality it hurt to talk about.

"Oh I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to bring up bad memories." He apologized instantly.

"It's quite alright. You didn't know and besides, I expected to this kind of situation to happen at some point." I said calmly.

We then went back into silence. But this time it wasn't awkward. More like a compatible silence that good acquaintances can have.

Unfortunately school was going to start soon so Matthew took me to the principals office and then headed to class promising to sit with me during lunch.

I knocked on the door and heard "Come in."

I opened the door to see a man in his late thirties early forties. He had dark brown hair, blue eyes and a frown on his face.

"You must be Mr. Kirkland. It's a pleasure to meet the son of my old colleague." He said softening his face into a small smile.

I smiled back, "You must be the man that gives my father assignments for me to do. It's a pleasure to finally meet you."

"Same here. You are a very intelligent young man like my son and we are happy to have you here. I just wish it was under better conditions." He said with a sad smile.

"As do I but unfortunately we can't change things." I answered.

We didn't talk much after that. Just the basic rules and my schedule until there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Mr. Edelstein said sternly. It was surprising how he was smiling a second ago and now has a frown on his face.

To my surprise the door busted open and a boy who looked a lot like Matthew but with a cowlick and sky blue eyes shouted "THE HERO IS HERE!" in a ridiculous hero pose.

Who was this idiot? I could already tell that I wasn't going to like him. I scowled in annoyance. He didn't seem to be ashamed for his actions at all.

"Mr. Jones, it's nice to see that you fin-" Mr. Edelstein began to talk while my mind began to wonder.

So far I have yet to see many mythical creatures around here. It was quite a shame but I guess most of them prefer to stay in the magical realm.

My thoughts were brought back to earth when I realized the boy was talking to me.

"...call me Alfred or Al." He finished saying, his hand outstretched to me.

"Arthur Kirkland, it's a pleasure to meet you as well." I said trying to make my voice sound normal but caused me to frown in the process.

We left as soon as Mr. Edelstein dismissed us. We walked quietly until Alfred spoke up.

"Alright, so where do you want to go to first?" He asked me.

"The library." I answered truthfully.

"The library?" He asked in disbelief before he looked like he understood what I was saying. "Oh, I get it. You want to get the boring stuff over with first. Good idea."

Alright, that was very offensive.

"No, I just want to check out some books." I said showing how offended I was.

Before I let him come up with an answer I started to walk ahead of him saying that he didn't need to worry about showing me around.

As soon as I got to the library I was greeted by the wonderful smell of books. I love books, they were where you could see how far the imagination can go. The stories, knowledge,and wisdom that is held in every one of them.

I spent the rest of first period and second finding books. By the time I had to go I had written down a list fifty three books that I wanted to read.

I left, saying hi to the young librarian, and looked at my schedule. Looks like I have English.

A/N: That is part one of chapter one. Hope you enjoyed it. The next one will be about their second half of the school day.
