Wellston Private High School:
Infirmary-
---------------------------------------------------------
John entered the infirmary after being dismissed by Vaughn. He had a lot on his mind now that he was essentially ordered to be more flexible with his rule.
Darren was busy dealing with Seraphina, Arlo, and Remi. The duo gave John stares of disbelief and distance. Mostly because they did not trust him, but also because they had never seen anyone ever fight with Seraphina and be conscious to tell the tale.
John returned their glares and directed his attention to an unconscious Seraphina. He stopped at her bedside and stood for a moment. He knew that he was being watched extra carefully now by the former royal duo because of his proximity.
He sighed and was interrupted by Doc demanding his attention so he could heal him and get him out quickly.
John took the tonic without saying a single word and Doc was not having it.
"Ungrateful," he muttered as he took the empty glass.
Surprisingly, John actually spoke up.
"Thanks..." He whispered under his breath, but loud enough for everyone in the room to hear.
This caught Arlo and Remi's attention who both simultaneously looked at each other to confirm what they heard.
Doc walked away mumbling obscenities under his breath. Nothing new to be assured.
"Oh, and..." Doc began. "Enjoy this while it lasts!"
This confused the three conscious individuals in the room, but unbeknownst to them, Doc would be leaving Wellston soon to pursue other endeavors.
After taking his tonic, John prepared to leave, As he stood, he almost expected Doc to protest, but he let him go without a fight. John walked past Arlo and Remi without acknowledging them and made his way back to his own dorm.

Headmasters Office
Same Day-
---------------------------------------------------------
Blyke had been called down to the headmasters office to reveal to him the coming changes to his living situation.
"You called, headmaster?" Blyke asked.
"Yes, Blyke! I would like to discuss how you have been living with your friend, Isen? Correct?" Vaughn began.
Blyke felt immediately embarrassed. He did not know that Vaughn knew of his current living situation.
"As you know Blyke... We do not allow these kinds of changes," he stated. "I would like you to move back in with John for the rest of the year."
Blyke visibly compulsed at the idea.
"With respect, no..." Blyke answered.
"Unfortunately, that is not your choice to make," Vaughn responded.
"Not too long ago, Mr. Keene found a vile dropped by you during a fight with John," said Vaughn.
Blyke knew this was his death sentence.
"If you would like to stay here at Wellston, I suggest you comply," Vaughn asserted.
Blyke stiffened and realized the full and monumental challenge that would be living with John again.
