Luna's View:
I was looking out of the window, trying to find something of internet to look at during this boring maths lesson. Slash didn't even sit anywhere near me! I was in the back corner and he was slap bang in the front and middle. Fortunately, he seemed to actually be enjoying this class.

'Luna?'

I looked over at Mr Telford.

* Mhm...?

'Since you don't want to focus on my lesson, tell us about the turning point, routes and one other thing about this graph.' He ordered, eyeing me.

* The discriminant is more than zero, hence no real roots, it'll never touch the x-axis. The turning point is a minimum point since the coefficient of x squared is positive, and if we differentiated this equation, we'd get the gradient function, which is 4x + 7.

'Hm, good! Start the textbook work I set please class!'

Slash turned around to look at me and smiled; I smiled back.

Eventually, the bell rang and it was time for break.

* I need to get something from my locker real quick.

We went downstairs to my locker and I grabbed a few books. Slash was looking at the club advertisement posters on the bulletin board when a few people approached me.

"You monster's never know when to not show off, do ya?" Harry said, smirking.

* Mr Telford asked me a question, I gave him an answer. Perhaps if you spent more time studying rather than attending parties, you'd be doing better in your studies.

Harry and his friends came closer.

"Wanna say that again you little fucking punk?" One of his low life friends asked, trying to scare me.

* What's going on here..?

"And who might you be, you glowing freak." They crossed their arms in sync as a group.

* Slash, nice to meeting you. Now, since when was it okay to talk to others like that?

"When they're annoying pieces of shit. Now you better get walking before you regret hanging around this weirdo..."

Slash stepped in front on me.

I didn't need protection.

* Slash-

* I'm fine, thanks. Now go away!

I moved out of the way as one of the boys grabbed Slash and slammed him up again my locker.

* HEY!

They looked over at me.

* It's as if you forget who my father is.

Within seconds their eyes widened. The worst thoughts came into their heads.

"W-We'll get back at y-you!"

They ran off like pussies.

* You get bullied..?? Luna why didn't you tell anyone?!

* I'm fine Slash, they can't do anything to me.

Slash frowned and I felt his aura change to a guilty one.

Slash's View:
I need someone to keep an eye on her, I suspect a group of human students are picking on her.

I-I could..! I've always wanted to go to school and I mean, with Luna, if an added bonus...right?

I guess it would look less weird...
