[That's probably what he would have done anyways... XD] Marcellin "ROSE" Bellerose
"Life is a rose, beware of the thorns." ❤═━.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.━═❤ Rose frowned when Mr. Gray pulled away, but he understood, knowing that it probably looked bad from a distance. He reluctantly accepted his offer to follow him into the wagon. Now he was just going to ask questions and make him get all emotional again. Jeez, all he wanted was his real name so he could find out more about him! There were a lot worse things he could have been doing and had already done to his past victims. ❤═━.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.━═❤

Peregrine.Elliott.Gray.Wellington.IV If you look like a pirate, then speak like a gentleman... Once inside the wagon, Gray shut the door and went to make tea. Again. Well. This was oddly familiar. He filled the kettle and set it on the little stove, letting Rose stew in the silence for a little before he said, "Sooo. Here we are again. I feel like I should just ask you straight up right now, if I should get used to this scenario."
"I'm also a little curious what you wanted this time around? And is it so hard to just ask me? I don't believe our last encounter left me telling you to never speak to me again, did it?" ...and no one will notice you have a heart like a pirate too.

He watched as Mr. Gray prepared the tea, just wanting to get this over with so he could leave and try again later. He flinched when he spoke, not sure he wanted to answer that question. Surely the answer was yes, but if he told him that, he would certainly prepare and it would be much more difficult for him to break in. "N-no...?"
"I-I didn't w-wan--" He sneezed before he could finish his lie and groaned. He did not want to be sick. "I didn't want anything," He finally finished and sniffled. ❤═━.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.━═❤

"You're a terrible liar," Gray said. "Just so you know. But if you won't tell me what you wanted, I guess you're not going to get it, are you?"
When the kettle started to boil, he pulled it off and poured the hot water into the cups. "It's a little weird that you like me enough to stalk me--though you've yet to explain why me, of all people--but you don't trust me enough to give me honest answers to simple questions. Ironic, isn't it?"
He probably sounded annoyed and, well, he as. If he was going to be inconvenienced this much, he should at least get answers to his questions. He sighed softly when Rose sneezed and went to pull a blanket off the bed, going to drop it on the boy's head. "Do you need a change of clothes? They'll be too big, but they'll also be dry." ...and no one will notice you have a heart like a pirate too.

He stared down at the ground, feeling guilty. As much as he wanted to use his wet back as an excuse to get a hold of Mr. Gray's clothes, he refused the offer. "N-no thanks... I d-deserve to be wet and cold," He mumbled as he pulled the blanket off of his head and tried to give it back.
"The r-r-reason why I cam--" He sneezed again, but continued anyways, "was because I w-wanted to know your r-real name," He admitted with a sigh. Now that he blew it, he would have to find some other way to find out. It would be much too difficult to break in now that Mr. Gray knew he would do it often and his reason for it. ❤═━.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.━═❤

Peregrine.Elliott.Gray.Wellington.IV If you look like a pirate, then speak like a gentleman... "Elliott Welles," Gray said. "For all the good it will do you. I haven't used the name in years and you're not going to find much out about me unless you're interested in where I went to school in the seventh grade, and what my home town is." He plunked a tea cup on the table beside Rose and went to get him at least a dry shirt.
He got one of the cheap ones, but hey, it was still a shirt. He went to sit by Rose, studying him for a minute. The boy was a complete nuisance, but he always had that kicked puppy look about him whenever they spoke. And it was just so irritating. Gray handed him the shirt. "Put this on. You don't deserve to make yourself sick. Honestly. Less melodrama please. I'm not even mad. I just want a straight answer."
"You wouldn't have found anything in here with my real name anyway. If you want to know something about me, the best way is probably to ask." ...and no one will notice you have a heart like a pirate too.

He went through all the trouble of preparing all the tools he would need and even brought a guard dog (who failed at his job) just to be given an answer!? He didn't know if he should have been disappointed or glad.
He took the shirt with a small 'thank you' and removed his soaked shirt, setting it down on his lap since he didn't exactly know where to put it. He slipped on the shirt Mr. Gray got him and smiled. This was much better than breaking in and stealing something.
When he said that the best way to know something was to ask, he couldn't help but go for it, "I w-want to know everything. Everything from how you got that eyepatch down to the size of your..." He stopped when he realized that may have been much too personal. Well, both of those things. If he had to, he would be able to find out the second answer on his own later. ❤═━.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.━═❤

"I'm going to assume you meant shoe size. And that's size 11," Gray said. "Also, fair warning--don't call me Elliott." He went to remove the wet shirt from Rose's lap and hang it over the sink. "Alright. Well, I don't mind telling you a bit about myself but in return, you have to answer one question for me. Honestly. Or at least as honestly as you can."
"Why me? I mean, there's a huge school with loads of boys your own age. And a huge teaching staff. And yet here you are in my wagon, wanting to know about me. Why?"
He wasn't really sure why he wanted to know. Curiosity maybe, or vanity. He had to admit that it was a little flattering to have the kid (though despite reassuring himself that Rose was just a kid, there couldn't be more than four or five years difference between them) practically fawning over him. But given that people didn't usually do that...he couldn't help but wonder why. ...and no one will notice you have a heart like a pirate too.

He was probably just messing with him. Either way, he looked through his belt of equipment and found a small notepad and a pencil, quickly jotting it down. Only one question in exchange? Easy enough.
... Nevermind, not easy. He had to answer it, though, even if it was difficult. "I've never cared for guys my age... You should have seen the whole incident with me and my middle school teacher. That was... bad. And you're easily the hottest teacher. You look like a sexy pirate and have a nice a**," Somehow, he managed to tell him that with a straight face. "Oh, and you're also very kind to me. You haven't even hit me yet. Usually people get fed up with me stalking them and just lose it... That's probably why Morgan sounded so satisfied after slapping me." ❤═━.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.━═❤

Peregrine.Elliott.Gray.Wellington.IV If you look like a pirate, then speak like a gentleman... Gray was slightly taken aback. He looked down at himself. He...looked like a pirate? He wasn't really sure how he should take that. Though it did seem like Rose meant it as a compliment. "I see. Well, I don't think anyone has ever been interested in me on the basis of my looking like a pirate," he said. "So that's new. And I don't think I've really had a reason to hit you. I mean...eh....I'm not really a violent sort of person."
He sighed and sat on the bench beside Rose, wrapping the blanket around him again. "Besides, you're my student. I think it would be going against my duties as a teacher if I tried to beat you up."
"As for me. Well, I lost the eye to an Undine. They are...very knowledgeable about just about everything--magic in particular but they tend hoard secrets about like dragons hoard gold. So if there's ever something you want to know, they're the ones to ask. Problem is that their secrets don't come cheap. Sometimes you luck out and it's something rare but obtainable. Other times, it's something you'd rather not give up."
"In my case, it was my eyes--both of them, but I managed to weasel my way out of giving up the second." ...and no one will notice you have a heart like a pirate too.

At least he wasn't trying anything perverted. He listened to Mr. Gray's story with a frown, having expected it to be because of some epic sword fight on a ship or something. Well, not really expecting it, but that's what his mind came up with as a replacement story until he found out what really happened.
"I'm glad you got away with one of your eyes. You'd look pretty dumb walking around with two eye patches on," Rose joked with a grin. He jotted something down on his notepad then repeated his earlier question, "And size...? I'm not talking shoes." ❤═━.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.━═❤

"I'm sure I'd look even more dumb because I wouldn't have the slightest clue where the hell I was going," Gray retorted. "The tripping over rocks and running into walls wouldn't help either." He made a face as Rose repeated that question. He was...quit tenacious.
"That...I will leave to your, undoubtedly, very active imagination." He doubted that information would do anything but serve to feed some probably very disturbing...thoughts. And frankly, he'd never actually bothered to measure. ...and no one will notice you have a heart like a pirate too.

"Well... this isn't exactly a question about you, but it's still a question," He mumbled, for once not getting straight to the point. "I was wondering... maybe after I graduate...? I mean, you only seem against it because you're a teacher, and I'm a student... so...." He never got directly to his point, just hoping Mr. Gray could piece it together and at least get something close to what he meant. ❤═━.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.━═❤

Peregrine.Elliott.Gray.Wellington.IV If you look like a pirate, then speak like a gentleman... Gray wasn't sure how to answer that. Because well, sure, they were both men. But...eh. Whatever. The main issue was, assuredly, that Rose was a student and Gray feared for his job. And given Rose's nature, it wasn't as if they could casually "see each other" or whatever. Rose obviously wanted more than that. The issue was that by the time Rose graduated, Gray may have moved on--he didn't want to, of course. He liked it here. But he couldn't avoid the possibility. But, eh, that was two years from now.
"Why not?" Gray said, grinning. "Of course you may change your mind by then. But yeah, if I'm still here and you're still here and you're still interested in it. Hey, I even like you--when you're not trapping me in my storage closet." ...and no one will notice you have a heart like a pirate too.

"R-really...!?" He tackled Mr. Gray in a hug, snuggling him happily. "I definitely need to start studying now. Well, I should probably pay attention in class first. ... Or actually go to class." Even with such horrifying thoughts as those, it was definitely worth it. He actually had a reason to try to graduate now besides getting a way to support himself on his own. "You better not forget. Run off with someone else and I'll hunt you down," Rose told Mr. Gray with a smile, still snuggling him. ❤═━.¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸..¸¸.•´¯`•.¸¸.━═❤
