I entered the cafeteria and see my friends all sitting round our typical table I walk up behind Childe "hey guys, Childe can I talk to you alone " Childe was flirting with some girls and he quickly ends it and stands up

"Sorry ladies gotta go I will talk to you later " he winks before placing his arm on my shoulder"So what's so important that you need to talk"

We make are we to the roof we jimmied the door open and we sit the ventilation system, Childe pulled out a pack of cigarettes he takes one and he holds the pack out towards me

"I don't smoke you shouldn't either" he rolls his eyes before lighting the cigarette

"I'm trying to okay just let me have this " he smirks " anyway spill why do you need to talk to me...  girl problems, if it weren't you wouldn't have came here off all places "

"There's this guy okay an-" Childe drops his cigarette before he interrupts me "the blonde guy you keep hanging out with really him? Okay it's good you like someone and really if you date anyone that's a start so i'm not going to judge but really what do you like in him "

"Okay okay don't judge your the one who is sleeping with a professor. He is nice and smart and he is really cute okay and he is a brilliant artist and he never smiles but when he does it's so nice and he has the most infectious laugh I have ever heard an-"

"Wasn't he your like sworn rival a few months ago and you are smitten over this guy have you done anything about it or~ what?" He leans his head in his arms

"I asked him to attend an event with me last night and he looked really nice but I didn't do anything there but this morning I was teasing him maybe a little to much and I made an indirect kiss joke and then asked if he would want a proper one and he said yes and I did it and he asked what it ment and I said it ment that I liked him but I think he ment what it makes us now and I don't know what to do know" I start to twiddle my fingers together I don't think Childe is the best guy to ask for advice on this but I don't have lunch with the I block for a few days and I really need someone to talk about it

"You need to do more then that your probably killing the guy inside did you acknowledge it throughout the day " he straightens back up and checks his watch "we gotta go if we don't want to get caught up here" he jumps up and makes his way to the door and we make our way to the cafeteria before the bell rings

"I didn't I acted like nothing happened and I also asked him to come to fencing" I smile at some girls and they all start to silently squeeze

"Why asked him to visit and isn't his club at the same time " we arrive at my class and we continue to talk outside the class

"It's on earlier now and I also offered to help him set up the alchemy club  as well "Childe winks at some girls as they pass

"Are you going to say anything to him about what happened or are you just gonna keep acting like nothing happened and I'm assuming that your have been acting like nothing happened since you never answered my question earlier do you really like the guy "

It's like the speak of the devil because Albedo walks up behind me "shhh- hey blondie did you have a good lunch " I smile at him and Albedo looks up his glasses slide down his nose slightly before he pushes them up his nose

"It was fine I um finished the drawing if you want to see it" I noticed that he was holding his sketchbook in his hands " I would love too " I wave bye to Childe who just walked off in the middle of me talking to Albedo and we head into class, the stools were back at the back row don't know why they were gone for so long but it ment I had no excuse to sit next to Albedo but I still want to sit with him so I just sit down next to him and hope he doesn't question it.

"It's not that good but I tried my best " he opens up his sketchbook and it looked like a photo "it's amazing I still can't believe you can draw this good how long did you take to draw that it's really good" I can't explain it but what ever he drew always looked amazing and I could look at them all day he always looked so focused when he drew but not how he is like in test it's a different kind of focus and it was so cute

"It's not that good I don't deserve that amount of praise " he takes out his chemistry textbook and the teacher walks in as she does Albedo closes his sketchbook and stuffs it in his bag he then starts to pay attention to the teacher his hair was getting longer I rember he always had chin length hair through out middle school but it had been getting longer over the years it was now just below his shoulder if I didn't know any better you could mistake him for a girl it was nice the way his hair had a subtle curl that made his hair look so soft and fluffy and I wish I could just touch it. Kaeya don't, don't think that, that makes me sound like a creep why am I thinking this. I want to just bang my head onto the table at least I didn't say it out loud I would not live it down.
