Michaels POV:

I woke up to the sound of my terrible alarm clock, GOD why do they sound so loud in the morning?! 'That could merely be you who thinks like that you know?' Said a little voice in my head. Before the voice could ruin my thoughts with logical thinking, I silenced it out. 'HA! Try ruining my thoughts with logic now!' Happy with my victory over logic, I quickly head to the closet, opening it and grabbing a random set of clothes. 'Hopefully I don't look stupid.' I think as I wear them. I look in the mirror and whistle. 'Not bad for a random roll!' I smile, before heading down the stairs and getting breakfast, relaxing on the couch while eating some chocolate bread. But then I realize with dread, jumping from my couch and running for my bag, mentally screaming 'IM LATE FOR CLASS OH NONONO-'. Running out with my bag and locking the door, still holding the bread in my mouth, I dash out and run towards the school I go to.

Coincidentally, while I run and slowly get caught up with my crisis, I spot a familar figure. "HI RAN!!!" I yell, grinning like a madman and changing my course to dash towards him, intending to crash into him.

Ran POV:

As I walk along the roadside, mindlessly watching a bird in the distance. All of a sudden I hear "HI RAN!!!". Before I could face the voice, something heavy crashes against me and I get vaguely reminded of a certain twin tower incident. "Ow MICHAEL WHAT THE FUCK-" I yell in exasperation, struggling to get up due to Michael piled ontop of me. He looks at me with a smug expression. "Hi Ran, did you know we're late for school? :D". For one second my expression is a confused one, but as soon as my eyes flick to my watch my face gets a panicked expression as he bursts out laughing and giggling. "GET YOUR FATASS OFF ME WE GOTTA GO!" Scrambling to my feet, I help Michael up while he's still laughing, I drag him along as we dash towards the school we go to.

Shady POV:

I wait at the entrance, anxious as I watch the students come in by droves, 'Ran usually comes at this time, why is he taking so long?' I think in a worried tone, but its not long until I hear the running of two figures. I squint my eyes, trying to see the figures more closely, but its not long until I figure it out and wave my hand. "Hi Ran! Hi Michael! Your almost late, what happened?" They stop in front of me, panting out of breath before Ran, still out of breath, heaves "I got slammed by Michael, and we almost were late to school because of him." I gasp, quickly checking Ran and shooting a glare at Michael, to which he just shrugs and giggles. "Are you okay!?" I ask in worry. "Nah I'm fine, really." I nod, satisfied with the response. As the three of us walk to our classroom, we pass multiple students who wave at Ran, seeing as he's famous I don't mind. Before suddenly we hear a stoic voice.

Zik POV:

"Your late." I calmly say to the three of them, putting my finger's together. "awfully, late." I glare at Michael in particular, as he fidgets with his fingers. "I woke up late so uhm..." Before I could hear his apology which I desired to hear, he was rudely interrupted by Ran. "Hey, its alright, lay off Michael. Its not like he murdered a person or cheat with someone." He stated mildly, but with the air of someone ready to prevent a fight if needed. I stare at him in an annoyed fashion. 'Perhaps to someone like you it doesn't matter, but to me it DOES matter. Bastard.' I think resentfully, but keep a neutral expression and simply nod. "Fair enough, Michael, your forgiven." Before Ran could continue to push on. Someone makes a sudden appearance.

Umbralord's POV:

"Hi." I say in a nonchalant fashion, making everyone slightly jump. "UMBRA! Don't surprise us like that, where the hell did you come from!?" Ran said in confusion. "Oh I was at the corner of the classroom, lol." I point to a corner which looked like it got trashed by a hobo. "And since when did you wear clothes that didn't look like some-" I cut Michael off before he could continue "Just because I have those doesn't mean I wear it everyday now do I? And besides, this looks cooler." I say with a smug expression. Turning around, I look at the classroom, filled with students talking and my expression returns into a neutral expression as I turn back to the group. "We should get some seats before we all get separated."  finding a convenient spot. I convince everyone to sit there and sit with them, crossing my legs and fishing for my pencil case.

Michaels POV:

I nervously look at Zik, who seems to be neutral, too neutral. "Ey, is there anything your mad at-" I get cut off by him staring, seemingly right at my soul. "No. No there is nothing on my mind right now. Thank you." He replies calmly, yet theres something so wrong about his tone...what is this dude hiding, and how do I find out?

Ran POV:

I look at Umbra, fishing around for his pencil case which he always loses too smh. 'Does this dude not know the meaning of keeping things organized?' I think, before sighing and turning to the rest of the classroom. Theres nothing to do, all is calm, 'Hopefully.' I nervously think, sparing a view at the tension between Zik and Michael. Just what the hell is going on between them!?

Shady POV:

I smile, chatting with my group of girls. We usually call ourselves the "Big Family" as a joke but like meh. I look at Ran, trying to make sure he's alright. Noticing he is slightly nervous, I track where his eyes are and land at the pair of them. 'Cant they just solve themselves already?!' I think, exasperated. "Hey, girly are you here?" I get snapped back to reality by one of my friends. "Yeah, my bad."

Umbralord's POV:

As I fish out my pencil case, I look up, and immediately get confused at the situation unfolding before me. 'So Shadys talking to her group, Ran is just staring, now...why the fuck is Michael and Zik looking like theyre about to kiss???' I ponder to myself, before looking at the clock. 'Alright, time for me to be crazy.'. Grinning, I stand up, ready to cause some chaos.

Zik's POV:

I stare at Michael as if it was a staring contest, fingers connected, eyes locked. "Michael." I mutter, getting Michaels attention "W-What do you want? You look like your about to maul me jeez!" 'You wont be saying those after I do what I want with you- wait, what?' I mentally stop myself. 'Why am I thinking this? For what purpose?' I get consumed in my thoughts, attempting to find a solution and reason. That is, until I get rudely interrupted by him.

Umbralord's POV

"HI CHAT!" I yell out to no one in particular, but I quickly grab Ran and shake him. "DID YOU KNOW THE MOON IS MADE OF CHEESE? AND WE'RE ALL JUST MONKEYS?-" I get rudely cut off by Shady, how dare she!? "Umbra, your being loud and obnoxious, stop. Your not cool, what an ICK.." I stare at her exasperated, is this woman really thinking me, ME, is saying this seriously?! "Woman, your better not be taking this seriously-" but of course, before I can continue, that DAMNED bell rings.

Shady's POV:

Heh, looks like I got under Umbra's nerve's again. I smile cheekily at him, and much to my satisfaction he simply glowers and rolls his eyes. Turning to Ran, noticing he's sitting properly, I smile. 'Such a gentleman, unlike him.' I cringe at the way Umbra sits, its just so unproper, its like he doesn't care! "UGH! UMBRA! SIT PROPERLY ALREADY!" my eyes tick at his smug expression "Make me!" he says, taunting me. "Why you!-"

Ran's POV:

"ENOUGH ALREADY!" I say in an annoyed tone, shutting both of them up. I rub my temples in frustration. "Class is about to begin, and can you both not argue about something as miniscule as this!?" I stare at both of them. "Sorry, I'm really sorry Ran, It wont happen again..." I nod as Shady apologizes. "'pologies." Knowing I wont get any better apology, I nod to Umbra too, who simply shrugs and faces the board as we wait for class to begin.

Michaels POV:

'Can't someone help me from this predicament!?' I think in a panic as I feel Zik's hand slowly pull my chair closer to him. "Zik, what the hell are you doing!?" I say in a hushed tone. "I'm simply pulling you closer to me so I can see your textbooks better, I forgot them, you see." as I listen to Zik's explanation, I calm down, nodding. "Wait, you never forget your textbooks though?" I question him in the same quiet tone. "People forget Michael." he replies simply. Yet I take a peak at his bag, and notice that he does, indeed, have the textbooks he needs. Infact, he has all of todays classes! So then, why the hell does he want to use mines? 'Maybe because he likes you.' says that small voice. 'Shut it! I dont even like him.' I counter, annoyed. 'Whatever you say.' The voice responds, fading away. "Zik, why are you using my textbooks, you clearly have-" I stop, looking at the dead eyes he stares me with. "I forgot the textbooks." I sweat, nodding as he returns to his neutral expression and class begins, with Umbra chatting with the teacher as if he was his friend.
