                       ᝰ.         beyond the stars

"dying by the hand
of a foreign man"

           THE CLASSROOM WAS SILENT. well, as silent as it could be with twenty students in the room and without a teacher supervising them. the noise of murmurs became lower, contrasting with the noise of footsteps that grew louder with each step, when professor crewel entered the room it was silent. "good afternoon, puppies. this class will be different from the others." said the teacher as he stood in front of the board, writing on it.

"you will have a group project to hand in by friday. for your happiness and my sadness, i will let you choose who you want to be with. in five minutes i will ask the groups, keep it quiet." said crewel as he walked away from the board and sat down in his chair. jamil took a while to process, group project? was it really necessary? jamil sighed before his ears picked up someone approaching him. the boy could only ask for anyone other than azul, anyone but octavinelle's housewarden. "hey jamil!" exclaimed exactly who the scarabia boy didn't want to hear.

jamil turned his head, coming face to face with the boy with glasses "hello azul, what can i do for you?" asked the brown haired boy while looking at azul, who had a smile on his face. the boy with glasses let out a small laugh "i'm glad you ask, i'd like to know--" "do the project with me, jamil." said someone, interrupting octavinelle's housewarden. jamil's eyes turned to the person who had just arrived. alaric harewood, with an innocent face as he looked at the brown haired boy.
"please...?" asked alaric as he looked at jamil

               azul's awkward laugh left the atmosphere a little more tense "sorry, harewood, but he--""i can do the project with you, alaric. i don't mind." jamil said, interrupting the boy with glasses again. azul was trying to keep calm while looking at the two "oh ashengrotto... i didn't see you." alaric said as he looked at the boy with glasses, who had the fakest smile on his face. before octavinelle's housewarden thought about talking about something, professor crewel spoke again "times up. sit down, puppies, i'll announce the topics." said the teacher with two colors of hair

                    azul sighed before returning to his seat. alaric watched the boy with glasses leave but quickly looked back at jamil, and at the seat next to him. jamil understood what the white haired boy meant so he moved to the next seat, letting alaric sit in his place. the brown haired boy observed alaric, noticing features that he hadn't noticed before, such as his white eyelashes along with some not very marked freckles. while jamil watched the heartslabyul boy, he could only think of one thing, because why had alaric asked to do the work with him? when jamil noticed alaric was looking at him while talking about something, with a sheet of paper in his hand

"which one do you think we should do?" alaric asked while looking at the paper given by professor crewel, jamil looked at alaric a little confused "i'm sorry, i wasn't listening." confessed the brown-haired boy, alaric shook his head saying it was okay "professor crewel gave us a paper with themes, so we could choose one." the white haired boy began to explain while passing the paper to jamil. while jamil observed the paper, alaric continued to explain

"honestly, the topics that i find most interesting are the beginning of astrology and stars. but if we were to analyze, the stars would be easier to divide among ourselves." alaric said while looking at jamil, who had already finished reading the document, looking at the white haired boy next "it doesn't matter to me. but we have to choose a name for the group." replied jamil pointing to the place where it said to put the name. alaric tilted his head "group name..." murmured the white haired boy, stopping as soon as he noticed that the class wouldn't last long

"we should exchange numbers so we can schedule a day to do it" alaric said as he took his phone out of his pocket. jamil's hands became sweaty when alaric took his phone out of his pocket and gave it to jamil, after the boy with brown hair put his phone in, alaric called him just so jamil could have his number. by coincidence, as soon as jamil gave alaric's number, crewel dismissed the group, saying that he had some things to resolve with the headmage. "we should set a date. i'll text you some details." jamil said when he noticed that alaric was going back to his seat to get his things. alaric nodded as he gave the brown haired boy a small smile.

ALARIC WAS ARRIVING AT HIS DORM WITH HIS BOOKS IN HIS HANDS. he really was considering getting a bag to put them in, to prevent accidents from happening like before. as soon as the white haired boy passed the mirror, his upperclassman immediately came towards him "alaric, are you going to do something tomorrow?" asked cater as he put an arm around alaric's neck "i don't think so, why?" asked the red eyed boy as he walked towards the heartslabyul lounge

"tomorrow we're both going to watch the basketball game against rsa!!" the ginger exclaimed while following alaric "basketball? is the basketball club that active?" asked the boy with red eyes as he looked at his upperclassman, who nodded "one of our underclassman is part of it, so it would be really nice of us to go and see!" said cater while making a peace sign "and it would also be very successful if i posted it on magicam..." muttered the green eyed boy while looking at alaric. alaric looked at cater with a blank look "send me the time it starts and i'll be there." alaric said as he started heading towards his dorm.
