-Chapter Four-

Joseph groaned as he trudged into detention, dragging his feet along the floor whilst the door opened slowly. He huffed as he stepped inside, seeing only him and Caesar now in the room. The blonde boy raised an eyebrow at him, standing up and running towards Joseph, suddenly pinning him against the wall.

Joseph's breath hitched and he stared into Caesar's beautiful, sapphire eyes, looking down at his lips every once in a while. He shook thoughts out of his head quickly

"My parents just took away my phone for a week because you got me in detention. I want you to be a good boy okay, Joestar?" The Italian said sternly, making Joseph nod his head quickly

"My family don't know yet.. I mean.. Granny Erina will be told soon and then she'll tell my dad who'll tell my siblings," He huffed, rolling his eyes after Caesar had sat himself back down in his own chair, tapping his fingers on the desk when Mr Speedwagon entered

"Read the text and answer the question, sorry, but I really must go!" Speedwagon called, shoving two, thick books in front of both the boys and a sheet of paper with 60 questions on it, making Joseph groan.
A little thing JoJo had never told his friends, not even Caesar, was that he was Dyslexic, he didn't want to write or read and have the blonde find out about it, his family were the only ones that knew..

He sighed and just played with the pen between his fingers, muttering nonsense under his breath as Caesar was already starting some of the questions, making Joseph gawp

"Are you gonna start or not..?" Caesar muttered, staring at Joseph who just shrugged his shoulders, slouching back in his chair as Caesar sighed, "I've literally never seen you try do any of your work, how're you gonna succeed if you don't do anything in school?" He asked, tightening his bandana.

Joseph continued to just shrug in response, he saw from the corner of his eye Caesar staring at him still, "Are you okay..? I mean.. You usually have a teacher whisper to you in class everyday-"

"I'm fine, thanks," Joseph gave Caesar a fake smile and opened his book, scribbling down the 'answer' to question one, even though he hadn't even read anything yet.

Caesar grabbed the book and stared at the words written, making Joseph gasp and try to pull it back, his eyes wide as his mind raced with thoughts.

The Italian furrowed his eyebrows in confusion as he read Joseph's work, reading:  King Joolean was sorrie for hurteng peepols feelengs and being a meane man.

This had nothing to do with the lesson, Caesar had no clue what this meant or why everything was spelt like this

"Joseph, what... Why's..." He trailed off, making Joseph stare around the room awkwardly, "JOSEPH!" Caesar yelled, causing JoJo to look at him with wide eyes as a book was shoved in front of him, "Read one sentence of this to me." He ordered, making Joseph gulp. He knew he'd get made fun of if he didn't, so with a deep breath, he finally begun

"The.... Uh.. Um... Battel of.. Haystengs.. Was.. Was.. In.. Ten sixty six and... Har owld Goodwinson.. Lost... Uh.." Joseph stopped there, his face flushing red as he couldn't continue anymore. He was embarrassing himself more and more.

Caesar sighed and took the book away, shaking his head and looking at Joseph with.. Was that pity in his eyes..?

"Joseph, you're dyslexic, aren't you?" He asked quietly, receiving a small nod from Joseph who looked down at his lap, "Why didn't you tell me, huh?"

"Because you're.. Well.... Ugh. You're Caesar Zeppeli! You're literally the definition of perfection and I didn't want you to stop talking to me because m different," Joseph huffed, seeing Caesar shake his head

"You're not different because you're dyslexic, I would've stopped talking to you by now if I found you that annoying, not because of something you can't control," Caesar whispered, pushing Joseph's hair back and pulling him to his feet.

Joseph felt himself being pulled forward by Caesar who embraced the boy into a... Hug? JoJo's eyes widened at the action but he hugged him back quickly, this affection was never shown by Caesar before..

"So you don't hate me..? Joseph asked quietly

"Non potrei mai odiarti, JoJo .." The Italian muttered, finally pulling away and clearing his throat, walking back to his seat and working again as if nothing happened, leaving Joseph dumb struck.

He couldn't believe this boy sometimes..
