Thomas created chat
Thomas named chat "Highschool Homies"

T - HELP ME I NEED HELP!

P - What do you need kiddo?

T - So, ya know that test on kingdom geography? Well I flunked it, the teacher gave me a second chance but it's tomorrow and I don't have anything learned!!

Ro - Well, obviously I, Prince Roman, can help you! It's quite simple to learn things for being royals.

T - Well, we're all princes Roman. Except the author and maybe the reader. But hey, we don't judge anyone. Be they a lady, lord or even non-binary royalty.

L - We are getting off topic. If Thomas needs help with this test then we should arrange a study group to assist him in his education.

AC - I agree. We need to help all we can. Be it quizzing Thomas, flashcards, or even just map studying.

Ro - Ah, said like a true princess.

AC - Excuse you, I'm a warrior princess.

D - Yeeesssss you are a warrior princess Author. You can clearly stick up for yourself and it's good to learn how to.

AC - So I can stand up to you Deceit? Yeah it's useful.

D - Damn, that's cold. Later losers.

Deceit left chat.

AC - Okay, study group meets in the library at 7 pm. Sharp, young adult fiction. Don't be late.

In the library

(Ps, I'm using normal writing format for this scene and any other scenes where the Sides talk to each other face to face)

Your P.O.V.

Walking to the library, I noticed the halls seemed oddly quiet. Usually there was quite a few students mingling after dinner. Apparently not tonight. I arrived at the library and slipped in quietly. I had my books with me and was trying desperately to catch up on my "Basic Decision Making" class. It was an odd class to fail and no one knew I was failing it. If anything, everyone else in the school is acing that class. I took my book out of my bag and started on the homework I had to do to catch up. I grabbed my Bluetooth headphones, connected them to my phone and turned on some good old My Chemical Romance.

I had been working for about 10 minutes and was fully immersed in I'm Not Okay (I Promise). Someone sat down opposite me at the table and looking up, Virgil was there. We looked at each other noticing just how similar we looked with big black wireless headphones on and black hoodies. I moved my headphones so one ear was off and asked him what he was listening to. "My Chemical Romance. You?"

"... My Chem Romance..." He chuckled. WAIT!! HE CHUCKLED?!?! No one sees him smile. A few people spread rumors about "legends of the emo smile" which, in my opinion, are bullshit. Now, I know that royalty isn't technically allowed to swear, but almost everyone at this school swears like no tomorrow. Anyways, if Virgil not only smiled at me, but chuckled too then he must be very comfortable around me. There are his friends, but even with them he doesn't smile much.

"Hello you emo nightmares. Prince Roman has arrived with Thomas, Patton and Logan in tow." At this point, both of us had our headphones around our necks, now playing loud enough for us to hear without disturbing the library, especially because the whole group was here. I finished the worksheet without anyone seeing the subject I had been working on and put it away, grabbing my "Special Arts of All Types" homework. We had to write a song with music and be able to sing it well by the end of the year. All. On. Our. Own. Lyrics were impossible but I had some ideas. I also had the music figured out already. Thomas was working with Logan and Patton to learn the geography of the land, Roman seemed to be working on his Special Arts project too and Virgil was getting frustrated by whatever his homework was.

Probably math.

Eventually, Thomas groaned and said, "Ugh, I'm never going to learn this. I may as well accept the fact that I'm never going to be able to rule my kingdom."

"You keep talking bad about yourself and I am going to PHYSICALLY FIGHT YOU!!" Patton started whisper yelling towards the end. I reached my hand over and rubbed his back soothingly without saying anything. He calmed down and continued to try and help Thomas. I went back to trying to make words rhyme with words and had a hellish time. Eventually, I had a first verse. No chorus, nothing else, just *A* verse. Reading it back, it was unironically super emo. Roman is going to trip when he hears me sing this at the end of year ceremony.

We had been working for what seemed like minutes when I checked the time and realized, "Oh shit! It's almost midnight. Gotta go guys, see ya in class tomorrow."

"What? Do your clothes transform into rags at midnight?" Virgil. Always one bringing the sass.

"No, I just have to be somewhere tonight. It just so happens that I need to leave now. Bye all and good luck Thomas." I walked to my dorm and to the window. Opening it for some fresh air and changing into pajamas. I crashed and crashed hard. Sleep was my weakness and if I was put under a sleeping spell, I doubt a kiss would wake my heavy ass sleeper form. Struggles of being an awkward highschool royal.

*insert highly annoying beeping sound*

I woke with a start then gathered my surroundings. Bed. Alarm. Turn off. Need more sleep. Fuck. I knew I had to get out of bed. It's a daily struggle. Should I go to class be educated or should I ditch class and sleep? The real question is what's for breakfast? I grab black skinny jeans, a dark purple t-shirt, and an oversized zip-up hoodie. After getting dressed I throw some eyeliner on and that's it. I walk to breakfast, book bag in hand.

I get there, find Thomas, start interacting like a human, and ask him how he feels before his retake test. He is nervous and I try to calm him down. He nods his thanks and goes to the classroom. I eat my breakfast quick and head to the library to get a new book on my way to class. I walked into class a few minutes before the bell rang and I went to my usual desk in the back corner. Virgil has the other back corner desk. We often shared glances because we were bored in a class of kingdom history. He'd roll his eyes and I'd mimic the teacher who droned on and on and on with absurd mouth movements only he could see. We made boring classes fun and we'd walk each other to class every now and then.

He slowly opened up and became more comfortable with me. Thomas passed his test and learned from his mistakes. Patton helped when needed. Logan is still a big nerd. I'm stuck on lyric writing and Roman is still Roman. Welp, take it easy guys gals and non-binary pals. PEACE OUT!!
