"Feli." Ludwig called, "Feli."

"He's not going to wake up like that. Don't you usually yell at him to get up?" Kiku asked, crossing his arms and staying near the doorway.

"I know but...it's the first day here. I want to make this different. At least by a little bit. I have some patience." Ludwig said, turning back to Feli, who still wasn't awake. After a few nudges, he lost patience.

"FELICIANO!" Feliciano yelped, slightly surprised at Ludwig's strong tone.

"So much for patience." Kiku mumbled.

"Oh gosh, hi...?" He mumbled, sighing. He was back to the normal world, away from his Other Friends.

"Yeah, get up. We need to set up the bed there, so I would highly suggest you get up." Ludwig said and Feliciano stood up, yawning. "Go ahead and explore the outside, I think one of those bickering folk are outside, Mr. Bonnefoy I think?"

"Alright." Feliciano got up, rubbing his eyes as he walked out. He hated that Ludwig yelled at him. But that was just Ludwig's nature and he couldn't do anything about it. He walked out and did find Mr Bonnefoy nearby.

"Good morning Francis!" Feliciano called out, walking towards him.

"Bonjour Feliciano. Would you like to accompany me around the premise? I do love getting some fresh air. Arthur likes to sleep in sometimes, like today."

"I would sleep in too if Ludwig didn't kick me out." Feliciano commented.

"Right, I heard that from the open window." He said, pointing to the bedroom Feliciano was in. "He's fond of yelling, isn't he?" He asked as they started to walk around the building.

"Yeah, he does it often." Feliciano admitted, "But he needed me to move, so I guess it was justified."

"Hmm, alright, well, I might as well tell you a few of the things I wouldn't recommend doing if you're going to be out and about, considering your roommates aren't the nicest to you." Mr. Bonnefoy said, "There's a well up north, I wouldn't go there if I were you."

"Why not?"

"It's dangerous, that's all I'm saying." He paused, "Now I doubt you're going to listen to a man like me, but I'm just warning you."

"Alright." They spent the rest of the morning walking around, Feliciano asking questions and Francis answering them.

"What was it like exploring?"

"Oh, it was rather grand. Women from across the world would often look at me, loving how I would style myself. Arthur found it irritating when women would come up and say that they liked how I looked, but I found it simply delightful."

"Why did you guys stop?"

"Well, we've traveled everywhere at this point, or at least places we could go."

"That sounds fascinating." Francis then told some stories of how Arthur almost got captured by some natives and Francis had to charm their way out. It actually worked.

"Well, I must be off. Arthur must be getting up and I'm not about to eat burnt lunch. I'll see you later Feliciano." They parted ways and Feliciano decided to go to the well, as he had nothing left to do. He was just bored or a burden inside the house, so might as well make himself comfortable outside.

After a few mishaps, he found himself at the well. It was behind the large billboard with an AD that started to fade away. Something about a toothpaste brand. The brick circle with moss growing around it was a little difficult to spot, but he could see it. The well was boarded up, but it was better than nothing. The flora and fauna were very interesting to look at while he sat on top of the well. The boards were sturdy enough to carry him, so as long as he held on, he would be okay. He found a black cat there as well, who would watch him but then scurry away at the sight of Feliciano walking towards him.

He spent a week going back and forth into the well's secluded area, not that anybody cared. Ludwig and Kiku were working on their class plans as they were teaching new subjects. Feliciano was teaching art, which wasn't bad as he was a very good painter in his younger years and hasn't changed since.

Though one day it rained and Feliciano had to stay in. He considered working on his lesson plans, but the school year didn't start until next month and some weeks, so it wasn't a priority. He was like a child, he preferred procrastination rather than work.

"Hi Kiku." Feliciano greeted, but clearly Kiku was into his work, so Feliciano didn't ask anything else. He debated on going to Ludwig, but he didn't want to get yelled at, so he just went to bed for a siesta. He hadn't dreamed or heard from the Other Friends since the first day. He wondered if they would return, they seemed a lot better than who he had now.

I'm not dead! Well, this book is messy but I am trying to work it out to how the book goes. It is working, I suppose. Though I did let Feliciano meet his other friends a little too early, but that's fine! I hope you guys enjoyed this. :)
