Soon after my embarrassment, class ends. I intensify my gaze on Lexi as she hugs me and says bye. "I know, I know, I'll see you at break. Promise?" When my gaze turns into a glare, she decides its best if she were to leave now.

"Good luck!" Lexi shouts behind her as she runs to her next class. I turn around to Ciel nervously and wave him on with my hand. "Why don't you talk?" He asks and I look away as we walk to the next class. "Come now, I asked you a question."

I shake my head stubbornly until my arm is grabbed and he pulls me into a janitor's closet. "I just smelled her Claude! Where is she?!" I look up at Ciel in the dark space, my eyes widening in fright. He places a finger to his mouth and releases me.

"Your highness, if you followed her scent you would've noticed the other with her." Ciel's arms wrap around my waist as Claude says this. "And..." The closet opens and we stumble out into the hallway. "You would've realized it hadn't faded."

Ciel helps me stand up and pushes me behind him. "What do you want with her Alois?" I take a step back in fear, clutching the books in my hands tighter and my satchel closer. "I want her Ciel, you aren't taking her from me."

Alois states darkly and I feel myself begin to sweat. "You two are scaring the poor girl." I hear from behind me and I whip around to see Claude. I back away, bumping into Ciel. "Let's get to class Tayla." He says with gritted teeth as he grabs my hand.

"Wait! Tayla, right?" I nod my head nervously. "I have no idea where I'm going either and I figured you might be able to help me." He holds up a schedule. "No Alois, she's my escort at the moment." I pull out of his grasp and grab the schedule from Alois.

I look at him and then Ciel, before grabbing both their hands. I stick my tongue at Claude, causing him to glare darkly. "What are you doing?" Ciel questions as I yank them down the hallway. We arrive at Mr. LS' room and I pull them to the door, releasing them as I walk in on my own.

"I think she showed us we have the same classes." Alois smirks and walks in behind me. Ciel follows soon after and they both take a seat on the opposite sides and I sink into my seat. They're gaining unwanted attention.

"Tayla, would you like to introduce your.....er, friends?" Mr. LS requests. Kate speaks up with a snort, "she probably paid them!" The class bursts into giggles and Mr. LS sends Kate out the room. "Th-This i-is A-Alois an-nd Ci-Ciel Phan-antomh-hive..." I say quietly and stutter on every word.

"Thank you, Tayla. You may have a seat." Mr. LS states, he doesn't hate me as much as Ms. G so he stands up for me most of the time. "Pretty voice," Alois comments in my ear and licks it. I feel myself become more embarrassed as I pull out a notebook and write.

"Tayla, I know you like your notebooks but you need to pay attention." I write on a piece of paper and hold it up to him. "Mr. LS, I am paying attention. You're talking about types of phobias. By the way Achluophobia is the phobia of darkness. You said, Acerophobia, fear of tasting something sour." He reads out loud, glancing back at the board and nodding.

"Alright, Tayla. I won't doubt your listening skills again, thanks for the correction." He smiles at me and I look away when I hear the other student's comments, "she is such a teacher's pet/ I never knew she was so attention-seeking/ I thought she was quiet but she's even trying to make the teach look stupid."

I gaze down at my desk as Mr. LS continues his lesson. I don't look at Ciel or Alois for the rest of class and I keep writing, ignoring everyone and everything.

"Tayla, please stay after class." The entire class breaks into a chorus of laughter. Everyone exits, including Alois and Ciel, 'they probably don't want to be near a nobody like me.' I think sourly.

"Tayla, are you doing okay?" Mr. LS places a hand on my arm gently and I pull it away. "F-Fine." I stutter out and grab my stuff. "Is anyone bullying you? You can always come to me if you need someone to talk to you know." He tells me and I nod, my gaze staying on the floor.

"Alright, go on to free period." He ruffles my hair and I walk out the classroom silently. "Hey Tayla! A bunch of people tried to speak with us but we told the bloody twats that we were waiting for you." Alois startles me and I smile softly, 'so they did wait...' I look at them both and give a soft smile, "thanks."

"It says we have free period! So, what do you want to do?" Ciel asks and I grab their hands and pull them outside. "SB! Over here!" I hear Lexi yell from a table with a bunch of her friends. I wave weakly but lead Ciel and Alois to her, letting go of their hands as I do.

She greets me and I smile at her. Ciel and Alois both take a seat next to where I'm suppose to go but I shake my head and back up. "Come on, Tayla. Chill with us for once." Lexi pleads and I shake my head, giving her a apologetic look before turning tail and running.

Ciel's P.O.V

Tayla is out of our view before anyone can say anything else. "Why do you keep trying so hard Lexi? She doesn't speak." A girl with black hair asks incredulously. "She's my friend, you guys should try too, after all she is reliable and a good person."

Lexi answers her tightly and clenches her fists. "So you guys are basically a bunch of shit eaters?" Alois asks bluntly in a bored manor. "Excuse me?!" A brunette exclaims.

"As much as I hate to agree with him, he's right. You all don't care for her and are....what is it called again...? Oh yes, two-faced." I state, standing up with Alois. "They have a point. I'll see you guys later." Lexi says and walks away with us.

"Thanks, not a lot of people would think to stand up for her. One question, are you two cosplayers?" Lexi asks us bluntly. "No." We answer then glare at each other. "Oh yeah, you're the real deal. I have a list of questions but my top one is, is Sebastian here to?"

"Uh....yeah." I answer with a straight face and roll my eyes. "Really?! Can I meet him?!" She squeals excitedly and I nod. "Sure, you can bring Tayla too." Alois glares, realizing my plan. "Actually she does what she wants and doesn't walk home with me. Another question, what's with you guys and Tayla?"

Alois and I glance at each other and then to Lexi, "nothing." We answer simultaneously. She looks at us suspiciously, then, as if not even asking the question, she continues. "Knowing Tayla, she'll be under her favorite trees." She leads us to a hill that isn't to far from the school.

"Tayla! You up there?!" Lexi yells up a tree and we look up. Tayla looks down before hanging on the branch upside down with her feet loosely and then dropping, "Tayla!" Lexi says nothing as Tayla does a flip and lands on her feet.

"Bloody hell! Are you insane?!" I yell at her and she shakes her head, taking a bite from the apple in her hands. "Sorry about earlier SB, its just that I wanted you to make more friends other than me." She shakes her head as if saying 'I'm not mad' and then hugs Lexi.

"So.....Who's up for gym?" Lexi grumbles and Tayla covers up her laugh as we walk back to the school since break is almost over.
