"So why exactly was my boyfriend, sitting at your table?" Elizabeth stands in front of me on my way out of the school. "I....uh...don't know?" A sharp sting is delivered to my cheek and I flinch.

"Don't act like you don't know! Why is he following you around like a lost puppy!?" I grimace and take a step back. "I-I don't know wh-what you're talking ab-about." I stutter and duck when she throws a punch. "You little dork! Take your beating!" I dodge another punch by pushing her arm with my hand so that it went off course.

She continues and I continue to dodge, probably shocking the entire hallway. "You-You little bitch! I'll teach you a lesson!" I move back again when she throws a punch at my face, her balance is off and I move around her, only to stop when I see her cronies. Elizabeth tries to kick me in the face with her heel, 'she's so off balance.'

I grab her heel and push her to the ground. "I-I'm sorry!" I stutter and run in the other direction. "Get back here!" I hear her voice but ignore it, running to the side entrance of the school. I jump when I feel a a hand on my shoulder. "Zara! You scared me!" I scold her slightly and she grins.

"You did it." I tilt my head in confusion. "Huh? Did what?" She laughs and slaps my cheek lightly, "you stood up to Elizabeth!" I pause, "no I didn't.....oh my gosh, I did! I can't believe this!" Her face is so happy while I look distraught. "Yeah believe it girl!" She is bouncing and I grab her arms. "No! Don't believe it! I can't believe I did that! I'm so dead, she's going to kill me and I'll be dead! Zara what do I do?!"

Zara slaps me a little harder, "wake up and smell the watermelon! She doesn't rule over you anymore!" I shake my head and plop down onto the floor. "I'm so going to die....I won't live this down, what if Alois saw. Oh my gosh what if he figures it out!? I can't let him-!" Zara grabs my shoulders, "calm down woman! Tell him you took self-defense classes before and he'll buy it." Then she adds in a mutter, "but I doubt it with your lying skills."

I sweat-drop and push her away. "Are you guys okay?" We hear two sets of footsteps approaching us and I cover my face with my hands. "Cookie?! Are you alright?" Someone kneels next to me but I don't look up. "Her face is just a little sore from Elizabeth hitting her." Zara comes up with an excuse for me.

"Really? I think she did a okay job defending herself. A little slap like that shouldn't effect her so much." Ciel counters. "Be quiet Ciel, she's your sister. If that hurt her then you should be worried." Alois states from next to me and my hands are grabbed, "let me see." Alois pulls my hands away from my face.

I hear him gasp but keep my eyes closed, I hate lying to anyone. "What is it?" Ciel asks Alois. "It wasn't just a measly slap. Elizabeth scratched her face." His hand trails over the four scratches made by Elizabeth's hand and I flinch slightly. "Come on, I can clean this up for you." Alois holds my hands and helps me up.

I follow Alois, my eyes still closed. From the silence around us, I'm guessing Ciel nor Zara followed...jerks. He grabs something from a locker, pulling me along into a room. He picks me up and sits me on something. Water running draws my attention, but I don't open my eyes due to the sticky feeling on it. He wipes my eye with something wet, taking off whatever was on my eye.

"You can open your eye now." Alois tells me. I open my eyes to find us in the girls bathroom and the cloth he used to clean my eye with is slightly bloody. "You should be more careful, Lizzy isn't the nicest of people." Alois tells me, wiping the rest of my face. "Well she was mad about me simply being around you." I respond, wincing a little more.

"Why?" He asks, completely oblivious to the reason as he uses peroxide to clean the cuts on my face. "You seriously- ow! Don't know?" I ask, grimacing in pain when he uses rubbing alcohol right after. "Nope," he pops the 'p'. "She is your girlfriend and you just so happened to not sit next to her at lunch." I explain.

"What? She's not my girlfriend." I look at him in surprise when he puts a bandage on my face. "Thanks, but really? She's been saying you two have been dating for the longest. Why haven't you said anything?" I ask, looking in the mirror at his work, surprisingly it was good. "I didn't find a need to. We never dated and if she wanted to spread rumors, let her. I was only there because Ciel wanted to sit with them." He shrugs like its nothing.

"I guess that makes sense. Wow, you're really good at this." I comment, running my fingers over the bandage lightly. "Uh..yeah, I guess." He shrugs. I purse my lips and look at him. "Where'd you learn?" His shoulders tense and I frown. "I just did," I don't take that as an acceptable question and push on.

"I've never tried it and I could never do this. This looks like it'd take time to learn." He glares at me suddenly, "stop being so nosy and be glad I help you!" I flinch and look down at the ground sadly. "I-." He starts to talk but stops himself. The room becomes awkward and I decide to change the subject.

"So is there a reason you took us into the girls bathroom?" I ask, trying to loosen the tenseness of the room. "You wouldn't want to be in the boy's bathroom would you?" He retorts and I smile. "Well...." He smacks my arm, "oh you did not just say that." I laugh and so does he. "Let's get going, Ciel took Zara home." He says after checking his phone.

'Those little....' I hiss in my mind. He grabs my arm and helps me off the counter. He doesn't let go of my arm as he pulls me back to his locker, placing his stuff inside. "Where's your car? Usually, I would ride with Ciel." He questions.

"Its right outside, come on." I switch our positions, me pulling him along now. Getting to my car, I take out my key and unlock my doors. "Hey!" I shout when he snatches my keys out my hand. "You're injured, you can't drive." He response to my anger makes me more angry. "Give me back my keys!" I shout and he laughs, getting into the driver's seat.

'I-Is he going to steal my car...?' He starts the car up and winds down the window. "You coming?" I let a smile break onto my face as I climb in. "Want to get something to eat or go straight to your house?" He asks, pulling out of the school parking lot. "Um-." I'm cut off by my stomach rumbling and he laughs.

"Food it is." I blush as we drive into a small restaurant.

3rd P.O.V

Alois gets out the car and quickly opens the door for Keke. She blushes again and mumbles a thanks as she gets out.

'He opened the door for me....does he like me? Oh my gosh, no. I'm me, he's....well, he's Alois Trancy! He can't like me, that's not how things work!' She glances at Alois before dragging her gaze back to her feet. 'I mean, I don't like him either...right?'

Alois is having different thoughts. 'She's cute.'

A/N: Blunt much?

'The question is, will she like me. She probably thinks I'm some stuck up jerk. At least she's not scared of me, that's an upside. What if she doesn't think I'm enough for her?' Alois starts to think frantically, similar to Keke. The author, of course, thinks of them both as oblivious bakas.
