- LEAVE ME IN THE COLD YOU BETTER RUN AWAY
"Leo..." A voice within a blonde-haired male's mind reached out to him. He opened his eyes, hoping that it would be his mother staring down at him, well and alive. Nope, instead, the ceiling of a classroom stared back at him. He sat up in his seat at the back of the classroom. How long had he been sleeping? Looking around him, he sighed. He had slept the entire lunch period. "Crap, I actually thought I was at home for a second." His abnormally colors eyes lit up at the sight around him. Students.
The teacher strolling around the classroom spotted the awoken Leon who silently clapped his hands together, pleading for the teacher not to say anything. He mouthed 'sorry' to the teacher, who stared at him with a face of disapproval. Back to school...definitely not off to a good start. Leon groaned inwardly, looking down at his desk to see his owl fast asleep. Taking a look around, he flicked the bird's beak. The bird's eyes shot open, glaring into Leon's green-speckled golden eyes. "What? It wasn't me." Bad lie. The owl got up on the desk, took a couple of steps forward before smacking Leon on the face with its wing. The male cringed, touching the spot the owl had slapped him at. The red mark instantly faded away with the male's touch. "I guess I deserved that heh." He whispered, petting the owl's head. The owl in turn tried to snap its beak onto Leon's finger but the male quickly pulled his hand away, grinning. "Nice try!" He exclaimed in a hushed whisper, trying not to laugh out loud at the stubborn owl. He had no idea how Shard managed to put up with him, but the owl did.
This morning Leon had been running late to school because Shard had refused to leave the village, much less, step out of the house door. He had looked ridiculous trying to convince the animal that today would be a fun day. If not for his healing ability, he'd have scratches and scars all over his face and hands. And here they were, sitting at the back of the classroom, doing nothing. Leon felt like a student again sitting at the desk, he ran his finger over the edge of the desk while thinking. Shard now moved so that he was bent over slightly, looking up curiously at Leon's face. "Well, let's get to the right class first..." The blonde whispered to his kei, earning a curt nod from the animal who agreed. They were in abinder's class which was why it was so awkward. Not a single person in the room had a kei with them. As quietly as he could, the male stood out of his seat, waved slightly towards the teacher, and left the classroom.
Once they were out, both Leon and Shard sighed out in relief. "I thought their stares would kill me!" He shouted, panicked. He looked back to see his owl gliding around the hallways to stretch his wings out from being in that classroom for too long. "Shard. Don't head this wa--" The owl obviously did not need to listen to the rest of Leon's words as it rammed into the male, who surprisingly did not fall back from the impact. "Geez, it won't kill you to be a little gentle at times." He smiled, hugging the owl before releasing it. He placed Shard onto his shoulder, and the bird remained perched there as Leon looked around. What class was he supposed to be in right now?
"Potions class!" He shouted, face filled with excitement. The halls grew silent as different people turned to stare. An oblivious Leon waved to them, still smiling. Back when he was a student, he and his friends got into loads of trouble with potions. They might have even blown up a wall. Shard shot Leon a knowing look with his sharp orange eyes. Soon after, Leon walked into the class, rubbing the back of his head with a sheepish smile on his face. "Sorry I'm late. For those of you who don't know me, my name's Leon. You can call me Leo. I'm a student teacher, still learning, just like all of you. Nice to meet you." He spoke. "I'll just be walking around for anyone who needs help with anything.." He trailed off, watching as the students looked him over for a moment's time before getting back to work.
Leon probably seemed nothing like what a teacher would be like. He was known to be highly unprofessional, especially with the way he dressed. "You can't blame me! I'm only 21." He reasoned with himself, feeling quite old compared to all of the other students in the room. Shaking his head so that he'd stop thinking, he began walking around, Shard looking around curiously on the male's shoulder
