10th Grade; School Day

Virgil's POV

Our fourth class was just ending, Roman and I were heading to lunch. We didn't sit with many people, but Lily, Chloe and Brook insisted on sitting with us. They call themselves 'Our Number One Shippers'.

"So, how is the relationship going?" Lily asked us. This was a weekly question, and it wasn't annoying the first time, but after every week, it gets irritating. I would never tell her that though, I wouldn't even tell Roman that.

"It's amazing." Roman said, but the way he says it, the fact that he says 'amazing' is probably why I don't mind being asked that question so often.

"Agreed." The three practically squealed. 

~~~~~

Lunch was over, we were in our next class, it was boring old science. Nothing ever happened, but today something...happened.

Roman was my lab partner, all the teachers knew not to separate us. But, as the teacher started to teach the class, he heard someone snickering, non-stop giggling. And he had enough of it, clearly.

"Who is laughing?" The teacher, Mr.Avery, asked. He turned away from the white board to look at the students.

Everyone looked around to see who it was. Except me, I wasn't going to get in trouble for snooping.

"Why are you being suspicious?" He asked me. I froze. I felt all the eyes looking at me.

"He wasn't doing anything." Roman almost snapped at the teacher, but thankfully he didn't, he kept his cool.

"I have a hard time believing that. Why didn't you turn to see who it was when everyone else did?" He asked, I thought that wouldn't get me in trouble, but I was apparently wrong.

"I-I didn't w-want to be n-nosy." I said quietly.

"Stop stuttering, you're in tenth grade." I stopped talking in all, what did teachers have against me?

"Well, maybe if you weren't intimidating him for something he didn't  do, maybe he wouldn't stutter." Roman was starting to get upset, I could hear it in his voice. 

"R-Roman, calm down." I told him, he looked down at me, for he was standing by this point. His eyes soften, and I knew he was sorry. He sat back down.

"Im glad someone can control you." The teacher scoffed at him.

"What did you say?" I asked him. Mess with me all you want, I don't care, but if someone messes with Roman, Im going to stand up for him. Like he does for me all the time.

"Oh, now you aren't stuttering?" He asked me. I felt tears gathering in my eyes.

"Mr.Avery! What are you doing?" Ms.Plum walked in, perfect timing.

"Hmm? These two were being suspicious after I asked who was laughing." He explained, it wasn't true though, he only thought it was me, but then Roman stepped in.

"Im sorry, but I don't think Virgil would ever laugh in your class." Everyone snickered, except me and Roman.

"Now leave those two alone, and sign the principles birthday card." She handed him the card, and left.

"Where were we?" He turned back to the bored. 

~~~~~

After that class, we had Theater. It was my second favorite class, my first was art.  

Last year we did a play together, we both got the parts we wanted. And I would say I did semi-decent, but my Dad loved it, and so did Patton.

~~~

"Im glad Ms.Plum came in when she did, I worried that you were going to punch the teacher." I told Roman.

"Speak for your self, I've never heard you speak to anyone like that." Roman laughed, so did I.

"I didn't like the way he was speaking to you."  I explained to him.

"Aww, thanks Virgil." He hugged me right before we made it to our class.

~~~~~

"Virgil, I hope Mr.Avery didn't startle you." She told me, Ms.Plum was a really sweet teacher.

"Im fine..." Before I said anything else Roman budded in.

"He actually snapped at the teacher for once in his life."

"Did you now? What caused you to do that?" She asked me, it wasn't that big of a deal, but what ever.

"He was being mean to Roman." I said quietly, this subject was really starting to embarrass me.

"Aww, that's adorable." was the last thing she said before she walked off.

~~~~~

A few classes later we left school. It was a really slow day if you ask me. I can't wait to get out of school.

My dad picked us up, Patton in the passenger seat. 

A few minutes into the car ride and nothing was said, and then Patton started to make conversation.

"So how was school?" 

"It was fine." I told him, I was currently staring out the window.

"In Science the teacher was being a real..." Roman started but I quickly interrupted him so he didn't say anything that he would regret.

"Jerk. He was being a real jerk." I saw my Dad smile at me through the rearview mirror.

"Oh, why is that?" Patton continued.

"Someone in class kept laughing, and he turned around to see who it was. And Virgil happened to be the only person not to turn around to look, therefore the teacher automatically assumed that Virgil was the one laughing." Roman was starting to get mad again, but I didn't think he was going to get that upset because it was in the past.

"And then he started to get mad at Virgil because he started to stutter, but he only stuttered because he was inches away from his face and probably felt intimidated..."

"Roman. Calm down, Im fine, and I didn't get in trouble." It felt weird to tell Roman that, since he was always the one telling me that.

"I know, I just...I hate how people treat you." He turned to look at me, I could see love in his eyes, and anger, but that was just because he was getting worked up. 

"I know." I told him, right now he is feeling what I felt when the teacher was talking to him.

"And you know what Virgil did?" He asked a minute later.

"What did he do?" Patton asked.

"Mr.Avery said something snarky to me, and Virgil stood up to him." Roman still sounded so shocked that I did that.

"Stop making a big deal of that." I told him, I looked back out the window, watching all the tress and cars go by.

"But I love that you did that, it made me feel so loved." He held my hand in his.

"You know I love you right?" I asked him.

"Yeah, and I love you too." 

~~~~~

We made it home. We decided to spend the night at my place. We don't exactly have any reasoning or pattern for whose house we stay at, we just choose randomly.
