I got ready for school and instead of having the butler drive me I decided I would walk. I looked at the time (7:53) I still had over half an hour,It should be plenty.

The teacher had to go run some errands for a few minutes so everyone in class could just hangout.
I sat by the window (as a mc should.) looking out, I saw Aether he was outside in the yard, he was in P.E.

Aether saw me and waved. I thought to myself, should I wave back.. I waved back with a smile without even realizing it.

He gave me a smile back then turned to this blue haired girl.. no boy.. I didn't really know but I knew I was jealous.
