You snuggled into your bed not wanting to get up. Light streamed from your bedroom curtain, the blinds fluttering against the window. The rays of light warmed your bed and you smiled. You had survived your two weeks of school and you were being rewarded with the weekend. You rolled over in your cocoon of blankets and saw the time half past ten. You were planning on spending the day in town with Feliciano, Romano, Feliks, Eliza and Laura for lunch at a cafe in the town centre. Also, Felila was dying to take you shopping, Laura told you it was a ritual that everyone in that group had to do. It could of been worse but at the moment you could sleep.

A couple of hours later you were locking up your apartment, you bent down and laced up trainers, adjusted your checkered shirt so it hung loose around your elbows and made your way down and out of your apartment complex. You breathed in heavily and sighed, it was a nice day, it was sunny but not hot, a sign that Autumn was approaching.

You drove carefully the road. You were a careful driver always had been, afterall when your mother would eventually place your siblings in your care you would be the one taking them to school. Your phone buzzed as you turned into the carpark and you cast your eyes to look at it, sprawled across the passenger seat, a missed call for Feli. However, when You cast your eyes back to the road a car had appeared from nowhere. "Fuck!" You shouted and spun the steering wheel trying to avoid hitting it but a sickening scracthing noise caught your ears.

You hastily slammed on the brakes. Parking your car in the middle of the path, you raced out of your car to inspect the damage. A long silvery scratch decorated the side of a ranger rover. You hurried your hands in your hair, you didn't have a job yet. You couldn't afford to pay for damages to someone's car. Despite the injustice of it you thought you best option would be to quickly park your car before the owner got back. But as you turned you bumped into something. Or rather someone.

"Privet ___" A sinisterly cheery voice spoke, your blood turned to ice. You had damaged Ivan Braginsky's car. You were in deep shit now. Ivan Braginsky was in the academy due his amazing Literature skills, but that didn't stop his reputation. He was from own for threatning people even beating them up if they got on his badside. He even had three people do his homework for him, one of them being the Latvian boy you helped. Originally, He respected you for not taking anyone's shit but you made it very clear you didn't use your reputation for fear but rather than hope. He was your typical school yard bully and you did not like him.

"I was getting some doughnuts and coffee for my sisters, and I was coming back to my car but what do I see? I see you destroying my property" This tone became darker and colder the more he spoke and you felt scared. You weren't scared of many people but Ivan was different, their was something about him that just

"Look it was an accident" You said cautiously, raising your hands in surrender. "I can and will pay you back for damages as soon as i get a job" You said calmly, but as soon as you finished speaking, Ivan grabbed your by your shirt and slammed you into his car. "You think your some hero like that American bastard but let me tell you something" He leaned closer to your face, his breathe tickling your nose, you turned your face and closed your eyes. Trying to find any opening to attack.

"You are nothing more than a desperate little girl who wants attention" He growled, you bravely turns to face him, eyes wide open and you spat at him. He loosened his grip and you took the time too push him away from you, you quickly mad detour way to the other side of the car as Ivan stumbled. He was seething, you could practically see the dark aura surrounding him. He growled and began to storm towards you.

However he was tackled by two forces. The three men began to attack eachother and it wasn't long before you recognised them as Alfred and Gilbert. Ivan stumbled to his feet and retreated "Don't beat up girls, you lowlife commie fuck" Alfred yelled at him, he chased him for a bit. You and Alfred had gotten close, you were lab partners in science since you shared the same class, much to the dismay of some girls and guys. He tried to flirt with you for a little bit but the way he would geek out over space reminded you of your brother with technology, so you two became good friends. Meanwhile, Gilbert was panting as he lay dramatically on the ground. You leaned down and outstretched your hand.  He paused looking at you... oddly it wasn't a look cocky or flirtaous look he had given you before, there was something gentle almost starstruck about it.

He took it and you pulled him up "Thank you" you said, "Couldn't let a pretty Frau get beat up by that Russian pig" He said, a small smile on his face but it was quickly replaced by his usual cocky smirk. "How about a little kiss to thank your hero!" He said and pointed at his lips. You rolled your eyes and walked away. "What?" He yelled after you "What?!".

"Anyone's you would look gorgeous in blue or gr-" Felila paused "Honeybuns are you even listening?!" Felila sighed exasperated. You snapped put off your thoughts "Sorry sorry, yeah I like the green jacket very nice, like the faux fur around the collar very Jon Snow" You joked. Felila smiled and sat next you. "Thinking about your knight in shining armour" he teased, you blushed slightly "It's just that look he gave me" you started and then stopped "It seemed so out of character for him" you contemplated. Feliks stood up again "Not everyone is the face they show the world" he stated and outstrecthed his hand. You took it and continued your shopping trip.
