   "Anya's nervous." Anya simply said, with no enthusiasm or energy. Becky looked at her oddly, inspecting her for a bit. Anya couldn't help but notice, so she looked at Becky. The whole day, Anya tried avoiding the idea of the finals. It always made her anxious, she didn't have any faith in herself.

Was she going to fail? If she did, her dad's mission wouldn't go so well..and Anya didn't want that.

She was finally adopted by a family who she loved, and they loved her. They had the loving essence every family needed, but it was still full of suspense with their secret jobs. Becky just continued to stare at her, and she finally said something.  

"Sorry if I creeped you out, Anya-Chan! I'm just wondering if you're alright..you've been acting off lately. Are you okay?" Becky asked sincerely, and Anya had finally realize her moody behavior. Anya nodded and smiled.

"Thank you for caring about me, Becky! Anya is very lucky to have you as a friend!" Becky's heart melted from her cute actions and her smile, and so she started squealing and giggling. (Not a ship)

"Yuck, get your hyperactive excuse of a friend on a leash!" Emile had yelled out. He was throwing more shade than usual, which was just as odd. Damian quietly scolded him and Ewen could only agree with "the bossman." Damian looked at Anya from behind while Becky rolled her eyes and stuck her tongue out at him.

"I swear, they're getting ruder! We could probably get him in trouble with two tonitrus bolts if we told the Housemasters about the awful things he's said. Of course, the other two would probably just defend him-" She cut herself off and rolled her eyes.

"I don't even wanna think about them, let's head to class. Tomorrow, midterm results are being announced! Let's go!" Becky took Anya's arm gently and smiled, which she had smiled back and they headed to class, ignoring the three behind them.

No! She was suppose to talk to Damian, he was obviously waiting to say something! Loid clutched onto his sleeve and quickly let go, of it, forming it out again to look proper. For some reason, Anya didn't notice her father and didn't turn back around.

Damian just stared at Anya, not showing any change of emotion on his face. He sighed and turned around, walking off and Emile & Ewen turned around.

"Damian-Sama! Class is this way!" Ewen yelled out and Damian just gritted his teeth, basically seething at them.

"I'm going to the restroom, head to class without me. Oh, and tell the teacher I'll be here." He simply stated with a calm tone, and he walked off. Ewen and Emile just stood there, planning to follow him and wait for him outside.

He sharply turned around and looked at them in the eyes.

"And do NOT, follow me!" He strictly yelled with a more stern expression. They flinched at the sight of it, jumping back and running off to class.

Damian continued to make his way down the hall, and into the restroom. He turned the corner and walked inside. He looked at the mirror and sighed to himself.

"When will father really notice me." He asked himself and he fixed some of his hair back, trying to keep it out of his sight, and still maintain it well. He pushed his hair back slightly and tried to replicate his older brother's look.

Of course, Father and Demetrius does not have a great relationship either..but, Demetrius got most of his attention while studying. I'd like it if Father did the same for me.

He messed with his hair a bit more before shaking his head, having it return to its casual look. Damian couldn't help but just accept the fact, that his father would never treat him with care. He wouldn't be noticed by him, even if he was just as "amazing," or "awesome" as his brother.
