Chapter 6: schooling

Allen P.O.V

A bead of sweat flew down his face, as he look down at his cards. His right eye began to twitch, as his lips Trimble. "Impossible." He whisper under his breath.

The only reason I was being patient, was because of the money on the table. I tilt my head and gave an innocent look towards the boy who's about to lose all his money. "Is anything wrong?" I ask my voice low and kind.

"I give up." He said laying his cards down, at the same moment I began to pick up the money, counting each bill as I collect it.

Standing up I held my hand out towards the guy. "Good game." I said as he shook my hand. I then turn around and walk out the closet we sat in. Leaving him in a dais.

"So how many poor bastard did you trick to play poker with you this time." Lavi said as he lean against the wall.

I laughed, hitting Lavi on the shoulders. "Darling I'll never trick a poor man." I said walking pass him. "There's no money in that type of game." I said turning my head a little, back towards him.

School had ended an hour before, leaving the students with the rest of the day free. "So Allen, Lenalee is waiting at the park. She wants us to hang out." Lavi said scratching his head. While a weird feeling came over me, notifying that I'm about to a third wheel.

"Sorry I must decline." I said a little to dramatic. "I must look for more jobs." I said before turning and skipping away.

"Well have fun with that." Lavi shouted after me.

"You know I will!" I yelled with a smile on my face, as I heard Lavi laughed.

I headed towards the cafeteria with out thinking, letting the smell of food guide my way.

"Allen!" Road called in a sing song voice, before I walk inside the cafeteria. Running up to hug me the spike hair girl smile up at me.

"Hey Road." I said smiling down at her. She then grab my hand and walk inside.

"I heard you like the game poker." Road said as she pull me towards a table. "I also heard you were pretty good at it." Road said with a wick smile playing on her lips.

"Hey Allen." Tyki said as he look up at me from were he sat.

"Hey."

"Tyki play poker with Allen, I want to see who's better." Road said with glee.

Tyki P.O.V

Looking down at my cards again I couldn't believe that I lost.

"hmm... I thought you would have won Tyki." Road said putting her finger to her lip. "I guess I was wrong."

I began to laugh, as I look at my cards again. "What?" Road ask her face full of curiosity. And I laughed even louder.

"That little cheat."I whisper smiling to myself.

Allen P.O.V

Putting on the black and orange uniform shirt, I was still shock at how fast I was hired. Walking out into the auto shop, my new boss Mr. Rogers smile at me. A man stood next to him, wearing the same black and orange uniform.

"I fill so proud when ever I see someone wearing my shirt." Mr. Rogers said whipping tears that weren't there. "This is Link, he'll show you the ropes around here." He said patting the boys back.

Leaving us, Link and I stare at each other for awhile. "Well let head to the back, we'll get you started right way." He said as he began to walk away. I had to jog a little to catch up to him. "Everything here is organize in alphabetic order." Link said as we continue to walk. "But even so the most heavy stuff is in the back." Link sounded like a soldier giving simple orders.

Once at the back, he gave more complicated orders. About how to move an engine careful. "Sometimes we may even have to fix a car, so learn every part well." He said hooking the wire up to the engine. All I could do was nodded my head and hope I got everything right.

...

Getting back to my dorm room, I had crash into my bed.

"Are you ok Allen?" Lenalee asked me sitting up on her bed.

"Yeah, just a little tired." I said brushing my hair back.
