Enemies of Power

Discussing School

"-and remember the Exam is WEDNESDAY," Logan told his class as they were packing up. It was his final class of the day. It was just a review, but it was still stressful when none of the students listened. Well, most of them anyway.

The teacher packed up his things and locked up the classroom. He headed to the staff room to pick up the rest of his things then went to find the one of the Administrators.

"Hey Logan," Another teacher walked up to him.

"Hey Pam. You haven't happened to see Dan, Thomas, or Jackie, have you?"

"I last saw Thomas in the theater. He was helping Phillip with coming up with props for the latest production."

"Okay, Thanks for your help." Logan walked towards the gymnasium that also dubbed as the theater.

Opening the door he heard voices, one belonging to who he was searching for.

"I think it would be easier to have to students-" Thomas stopped talking and looked over to Logan.

"Salutations Thomas," Logan said.

"Hey Logan, what brings you in here?" Thomas responded walking over to him.

"If you are not busy I would like to discuss something with you."

"Go ahead, I have the time."

Logan sighed. "Where to start?" He thought for a moment. "Patton and I adopted a child a couple weeks ago. He's old enough to be in the ninth grade"

"You want to enroll him?" Thomas asked and Logan nodded. "Do you have an estimate of when he would start?"

"No, we haven't exactly discussed this with him."

"Okay, we can get a schedule set up for him and you can let me know when he wants to start."

"That sounds like a plan." Logan turned to leave.

"And Logan?" He turned back towards Thomas. "Tell Patton I said hi."

"Will do."

"Hey Virgil?" Patton looked at the boy in the passenger seat. They were on their way home.

Virgil looked at Patton. "Hm?"

"I was wondering if you'd want to come to work with me these next couple days."

"At that dog place?" Virgil asked. Patton nodded his head. "Sure...I uh guess." Patton smiled.

"Pawsome!" Patton chuckled at Virgil's groan. They continued on in silence.

"How long would I be with you? I don't want to be in the way to much?" Virgil said after a minute.

"Nonsense. Besides, I bet Joan would love you. They have a friend that sounds a bit like you."

"Oh."

"And just until we figure out what to do. We were thinking of sending you to school." Patton looked over a Virgil for a brief moment. "It would be the same school Logan teaches at so you'd have him there with you."

Virgil sighed. "I...I don't know... Maria taught the kids what she knew and I learned a bit from...uh...before that."

"I'm sure you'll do good. You are a bright student. We're home."

Logan got home and heard the TV. Virgil was asleep on the couch and Patton was in the kitchen.

"Hey Pat," Logan put down his things and walked towards his husband.

"Hi Logan!" Patton turned around and smiled. He was covered in flour.

"Virgil fell asleep shortly after getting home. I decided to make cookies to have with dinner."

"Okay, I talked to the school administration today."

"Yeah? What did they say?" Patton went to the oven as the timer went off.

"Thomas says that as long as we tell them when he'll be starting it should be fine. He also says hi." Logan told him while he put the next batch of cookies in the oven.

"I was thinking of seeing if he wants to start sometime next week or the week after? I talked to him about it a little after therapy today."

Logan nodded. "Speaking of which, how did it go?"
