I kept a hold of the starry boy's wrist, he seemed a bit stunned by the human contact but I wasn't planning on letting go. If I let go I was worried he'd walk as slow as his stares.
It took us about 10 minutes to get to Redcrest, we stayed in silence the whole way there and when we arrived he asked, "What is this?"
"You're joking right? It's highschool, where are you from?"
"Andori-", he stopped himself and turned away.
"Right, well i've never heard of that" and then after i grabbed his wrist again and pulled him inside.
I won't lie, the confusion on his face is kinda cute.

The earthling girl had brought me to a tall building, it was a dark red shade and many other humans were running inside. The sound of a bell filled the area, the girl turned to me and asked where i was from.
I began to tell her of Andoria, however i stopped myself. Was it wise to share such information with someone i had met on accident? No.
I never said where i have arrived from, but she didn't see to care. She grabbed my wrist again, the thought of contact is unusual. Back on Andoria, the only contact anyone would receive was violence unlike here.
We entered the building together quite statically, I was observing the building when I noticed some of the other people staring at me, and whispering.
"What are they looking at?" I asked the girl
She turned slowly, stopping in her tracks.
"You, but don't worry about them, they're cunts" she bluntly replied, "Now come on, i'm late enough as it is"
⋆｡°✩
I was right, he was as slow as his brain.
I managed to get him the office before the final bell went, but I was not leaving him there alone. I could already tell he had no idea what he was doing with his life, he looked at everyone like we was aliens or something.
I tapped on the office desk, hoping that Miss Miller would be there, she's the only office worker that can tolerate my constant late arrivals.
"Late again I see Scarlett Adams?" ,she laughed as she pushed her chair over to the front, "oh, and you are?"
"This is, uh what was your name again?" i turned to the boy.
"Maxus, Maxus Primavera", he smiled to me not realising he was supposed to be telling Miss Miller.
"Right, you got that didn't you?" I awkwardly turned back to Miss, if she asked me to spell that I'd be dead.
"Yeah, let me get you set up Maxus" and she began typing, "Go sit down then" gesturing to the two seats behind us.
He was staring.
Grabbing his arm, I pulled him to the chairs and we sat down. We stayed in silence for a moment when I decided this was probably the right time to start questioning again.
"Do you have a staring problem?" I asked
"No, i'm just observant" he replied
"And what are those things under you eyes?" I pointed to his pretty blue eyes.
"These? Oh well.." He seemed to be thinking for a moment, "Birthmarks, that's what they are" he said and then swiftly turned away from me.
"Well that's not what normal birthmarks look like, where are you from? Outer Space?" I joked, but he didn't find it funny. His head shot around quicker than a bullet and he whispered, "How did you know, is it obvious?"
Now i was the one staring.
"Dude, I was joking", I started but I continued to stare for a moment, "Are you, like an alien?"
"No, not quite" he stated, he looked like he was going to cry or explode. I'd rather none if I'm honest.
"Then, what are you?" I waved my hand in his face sarcastically, pretending to check if he was real.
"
An andorian citizen, what's it to you?"
We stayed in silence for a minute or two, not looking at each other, just glancing occasionally. So starry boy is actually a starry,alien,space boy? I've got to be dreaming right.
The silence was broken by Miss Miller "Maxus, I've got your timetable here ready" she smiled, it was so warm, she's the loveliest woman here and she doesn't believe it.
We walked up together, he took the paper and showed it to me.
"Damn did you do this on purpose?" I whined turning to the teacher, Space boy was in all of classes. Every single one.
"No, you just have the smallest classes." She protested while smiling, "Now off you trot, you've missed first period already"
I slammed the paper back into Maxus' chest and dragged him out the office.
Seems to me that I'm putting up with him longer than I wanted.
