**Alex P.O.V.**
The next day of school, I was determined to make Simon my friend. No matter what people did or said, I would be there for him no matter how much he protested. When I got to class, Simon was sitting in the back again, I sat down in the empty seat next to him, but he didn't seem to notice. When he did, he freaked out. I didn't know why he got so worked up about me. Was it my hair, the way I look, how I acted? What ever it was, it scared him a lot. He then looked away, as if trying to pretend he didn't notice me. What was his problem? I was determined to find out. "Hey, do you want to hang out at my place after school," I said quickly. I wondered what his answer would be, but it would probably be... "y-y-yes-s," I was shook.
**Simon P.O.V.**
I can't believe I just said that! I said yes! I started to pet Trucy, not actually knowing what I was doing until I heard her whimpering. As soon as that happened, I stopped. "Great, I'll see you there," said Alex. "Y-Y-Yeah," I said, silently panicking. He then walked away. I was left there, still processing what had just happened. I was then in deep, deep, water at that point.
Time Skip
**Alex P.O.V.**
The minutes were just ticking by, one by one they passed. It was almost time for Simon to show up, he might not even come. That's what I thought for hours until, *knock* *knock* *knock*. HHeee'ss hheerree. (Poltergeist reference) I made my way to the door, I opened it and there he was, except he wasn't with Trucy. "H-H-H-Hey-y-y, I-I a-a-ass-sum-med yo-our f-f-famil-ly-y d-didn't-t al-l-llow-w p-pet--," "Okay, I get it, you can stop talking," I said with a giggle, having interrupted. He let out a sigh of relief as he enter my house. It was just awkward silence for about ten minutes, but then something unexpected happened, "D-Do you-u li-ike R-RPG-Gs," Simon asked out of nowhere. I then replied, "Yeah I like some, do you know about Persona?" "O-Oh, I-I-I lov-ve Per-Per-Persona," his eyes lighting up as he said it. I was somewhat taken by surprise from his reaction. We spent the next hour talking about each and every persona game, starting with 3. When we finally got to 5, "Ry-Ryuj-ji the-the i-is be-st cha-charac-cter," Simon said with excitement. "What do you mean," I asked. He then replied, "H-He's fu-fu-funn-n-ny, he-e-e's l-loy-yal, an-an-and he's bra-a-a-ave. Th-Th-That's why-y I-I li-i-ike-e him!" I had never seen this side of him, he was confidant in everything he said, and he was kinda loud. It was a couple of minutes later when we heard a knock on my door. When I opened it, there was Simon's father, here to pick him up. We said our goodbyes as I closed the door. I think I just made a friend.
There's the end of chapter 3. I hope you liked it. Some of you may not know what Persona is, but if you do, you might enjoy this chapter a little more. Anyway, thanks for the support, God bless you, I love you, BYYYEEE!!!
