Tuesday had arrived and you had gotten up early with your brother and you and your friends had made it to school quickly. You had all split up and you had made it to your first lesson where you sat down next to Kairi in Drama until Marluxia strode into the room. He flicked his hair over his shoulder and was about to speak when his eyes found you. His eyes lit up before he dropped to the ground in front of you, grabbing your hands.
"Your royal princess! It is so lovely to see you! May I say it is an honour to be teaching you and your brother!" He said excitedly, your eyes were wide in shock.
"So why is he praising just her then?" Hayner mumbled, from behind you. You smiled awkwardly at Marluxia as he let go of your hand and stood up.
"Now then students we will begin our duologues please get with your partners and make some theatre!" He said flinging his hand in the air, the class groaned and you gave Kairi a hug goodbye as Seifer stopped in front of you.
"Hi beautiful." He said as he sat down beside you, you inhaled and exhaled before giving him a smile.
"Hi Seifer, are you ready to begin?" You asked, he gave a small nod and you held out a book. "So I have these options..." You began until he leant closer.
"Why don't we just pick an easy one, where we fall in love." He said slyly "because you know we are." He added, you blinked in disbelief.
"No. No we're not." You said "the choices are these." You pointed to the high lighted pages and he scanned them.
"Alright, but they all seem boring. Nothing with action." He said, you licked your bottom lip in annoyance.
"Not all of them are about action. In fact you could do an action based one for your monologue." You said, trying to stay positive at his unconvinced expression.
"Fine, which one do you want to do?" He asked, you glanced down at the pages and pointed to one. He took the book from you and turned to the pages and started reading.
"Sure, why not. Whatever you want." He said, you blinked again and took the book from him.
"Sure?"
"Well if we can't agree on this, how will we agree on what position we do it in." He said.
"Stop hitting on my sister!" Hayner snapped turning around from Pence, you blinked in confusion and then it hit you, your eyes narrowed.
"Hey! You can't say that to me!" You muttered angrily as Seifer stood up as Hayner stormed over.
"Stop listening in on my conversations." Seifer ground out, Hayner's eyes narrowed.
"Then leave my sister alone."
"She's my partner." He retorted, Hayner stepped closer.
"I don't care, if you believe you have any shot with her you're sadly mistakened." He hissed, "she's off limits, especially to you. Now sit down, get on with your duologue and stop trying to get to my sister!"
A loud clap from the front of the class caused you all to look over at a very annoyed Marluxia.
"Please students get on with your work!" He said, Hayner glared at Seifer once more before heading back to Pence. Seifer sat down and you glanced down at the book.
"So this one?"
"Yeah." Seifer said folding his arms in boredom. You nodded slowly.
"Okay 'looks get in the way'... finally." You muttered, Seifer took the script from you.
"You have to admit it's weird." He said, you nodded.
"But it will be good."
"You have to wear an ugly mask." He pointed out, you pursed your lips together and nodded. He folded his arms, you sighed.
"That's the whole point of the play... she wears the mask to weed out the losers." You said, Seifer scoffed as the two of you began to work on setting your duologue.

You groaned and slumped down in your seat beside Luna. She patted your back soothingly as the boys entered the room. Prompto raised an eyebrow and sat beside Genesis who sat opposite you.
"What happened to you?" He asked, you groaned in response and Luna smiled as Cindy chuckled.
"She had to work with Vanitas during Home Ec today because she was late." She explained, you nodded, and Axel scoffed as he placed a hand on the back of your seat.
"He's even more annoying than Seifer..." He said, you glanced up at him as Zack leant against the table.
"If he annoys you {Name} let us know we can handle him." He gave you a wink and you rolled your eyes as Paine chuckled.
"You haven't got a shortage of protection {Name}, but I wouldn't trust any of them." She laughed at their faces, and you smiled slightly.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Reno said folding his arms. Genesis chuckled,
"I thought it was obvious. Paine would do a better job protecting her than you all would." He said slyly, Noctis from the other table turned around with an eyebrow raised.
"You must be joking, we can protect her just fine." He said, Prompto gave a nod and Yuffie burst into laughter.
"I kinda believe Noct, but you Prompie... Don't go near the trouble." She sniggered causing the others to chuckle, Prompto huffed in annoyance and Vanille tapped her chin.
"Honestly I think she can handle herself." She said giving you a cheeky grin, you shook your head and placed your head back on the table as the boys scoffed.
"You guys can stop bickering now and get back to your seats." A voice caused you to glance up and Luxord was stood with a smirk on his lips leaning against the door. Axel, Reno and Zack rolled their eyes and headed back to their seats. Luxord pushed away from the door and headed to his desk. "I hope we've all had a good day so far..." His eyes scanned to you and he smiled slightly, "And if you could leave the Princess alone that would be splendid. I'm referring to you, Axel, Reno, Zack... stay in your seats today." He said opening his book, you felt your cheeks redden as the boys folded their arms in annoyance. "Today we will continue with finding our essay books. I hope you are in the final stages and narrowed your choices down to two." He said, you sighed and opened your book and continued with the work, your two choices becoming Twelfth Night and As You Like It.
