"Arrrgghhhh..."

Clover groaned as something nudged him.

"Who the he- oh." He looked to his right side to see Engel with Claire as she and him sat on two chairs beside his desk and poked him.

"Okay, okay, you guys can stop now. I'm awake- WAIT." Fear briefly crossed Clover's features. "D-did I sleep through c-class...?" He stuttered nervously. Engel and Claire briefly shared a look and nodded toward him before leaning in to whisper to each other.

"Should we tell him about the teachers?" Engel whispered. "Yeah. Definitely. He deserves to know." Claire whispered back. It was then that they met Clover's gaze once more. "Hey um, Clover?" Clover flinched. "Y-yeah...?" Engel sighed. "You're not going to die." He reassured Clover before Claire nodded and continued. "So...Miss Bloomie let you sleep during class. I asked Mister Rose about it a while ago and he confirmed my suspicions that it was Miss Hexi's ideas. He was quite surprised himself by Miss Bloomie's change of heart."

His eyes widened. Oh. Was it because of his current relationship with her? (NOT ROMANTICALLY! I mean as a mother figure)

"Oh..." Clover blinked. Claire and Engel looked at him expectantly. "...you know Miss Bloomie is crazy right?" They nodded. "Well...she's my..." Clover hesitated but decided to tell them. "...my adoptive mother- ACK!" Clover was then cut off by them shaking him. "Wait- REALLY?!" Claire smiled widely with stars in her eyes. "HOW-" Engel started but was cut off when Miss Bloomie entered the room. Her eyes narrowed even more when they met Claire's and Engel's. The sweat dropped nervously.

"I was looking for you two. Your next class is about to start. You should go. Not you Clover." He froze. "Me? Stay?" Clover nervously pointed at himself. "Is there any other Clover here?" She rolled her eyes. He shrugged and sat down. "So, mom. What did ya wanna talk about?" She froze when he called her mom. "...mom?" Tears started to form in her eyes. "Huh? Wait. OH NO- I DIDN'T MEAN TO THAT WAS A SLIP-UP-" Clover frantically apologized, only to see Miss Bloomie sniffling. "Huh? Did I say something or..." He trailed off when she pulled him in for a hug. (I have a headcanon that the teachers are touch-starved-)

"Y-you called me mom!" She sobbed. Clover hung from her arms awkwardly, not knowing what to do besides patting her back slowly. Unbeknownst to them, Miss Circle, Hexi, Thavel, Sasha, Emily, and Mister Demi were peering through the door.

"You were right Hexi!" Miss Sasha whispered happily. Finally, an instance where Miss Bloomie wasn't chaotic.

"Yes! She's right!" Miss Thavel and Emily whisper-shouted.

"At least they're happy?" Mister Demi smiled unsurely while Miss Circle nibbled on an Oreo. "Hey, can I have one of those?" Miss Hexi asked Miss Circle. She shrugged and gave one to every teacher there. She would have to give one to Miss Grace later.

Once away from the door and back to their respective classrooms, the teachers taught their students happily, which confused them.

"Um...Miss Bloomie...you can put me down now..." Clover awkwardly smiled. She happily obliged and set him down. "Say it. Say it again!" She shook him gently. "Mom?" Clover repeated, raising an eyebrow. "Yes! Thank you! Now you can go to your class! I'll make a note saying you were late personally, so you don't have to worry about being punished!" She walked out of the classroom happily, leaving Clover confused and frozen.

'What the heck...just happened?"

He shook his head incredulously. Gotta get to class first.

~Timeskip to After School~

"Bye!!!" Claire shouted, while Engel just waved. Clover waved back to the two of them, smiling. As he neared the entrance to the school, he froze. That was his mom. His BIOLOGICAL MOTHER.

Heading towards her, Clover's face had an unreadable expression. Miss Bloomie, being the protective mom that she was (even with her flaws here and there), accompanied him because she knew his parents abandoned him (to get milk and stuff cuz they didn't give two flying rainbows about his situation).

"Clover!" She beamed. 'Yeah right' He inwardly scoffed. 'After you abandoned me?' "Hey, don't try to get buddy-buddy with me. I know you don't give a [REDACTED]." Miss Bloomie gasped.
"Clover! Language!" She scolded, all while glaring daggers at Lallie (MC's mom).

"Hey, come now. You know I'm your mother. You're lying. And who is this weird woman beside you? She looks like [REDACTED]." Miss Bloomie's eye twitched. Clover scowled. That was the last straw. "Okay, Lallie. CUT THE ACT. Just get to the point. You can't be insulting mom like that. [REDACTED] you." Clover gave her the middle finger. I'll bet that Miss Bloomie looked like the proudest mom, right there and then.

Lallie stared at him blankly. Then proceeded to lash out in anger saying; "YOU- YOU UNGRATEFUL WASTE OF AIR! I CARED FOR YOU AND GAVE BIRTH TO YOU! JUST GIVE ME!-" She was cut off by Miss Bloomie pointing her box cutter hand at her threateningly.

"Y O U

At that moment, Miss Bloomie looked so threatening that you could die from her gaze. Although she also looks guilty about killing people, she knows she has to.

"Y-yes ma'am." Lllie gulped. She then scurried away like the cockroach she is in fear, not without a warning glance to Clover who only flipped her off again with an annoying smirk. "Uh...mom...was that really necessary...?" Clover stared in the general direction Lallie went, eyebrows raised skeptically.

Miss Bloomie, upon seeing Clover a bit unsure and scared, reverted to her normal self (mostly around Clover of course). "Awww...Clover! It was. Especially since she insulted you!" Clover gulped. "Uhhh...but she'll come after me?" Miss Bloomie's eye twitched. "Well...if she does...you know what'll happen to her." She grinned while Clover sweat-dropped even more. "And you'll be staying at my house in the meantime! Just so sweet little Lallie doesn't get any ideas, hm?" Clover nodded, relieved that he didn't have to stay in his apartment.
