"Huh?" You tilt your head in confusion.
"You didn't know about this? Apparently they're renovating the Nova building so classes are doubling up now." Vivi tells you.
"I thought they were going to do that during vacation.... I don't even know anyone from the Nova building, and everyone there seems... Mean...." You sigh looking down. She frowns touching your shoulder.
"I'm sure you'll make a friend at least..." She murmurs. The bell rings and you both separate. You head for your first class, Anatomy. You yawn as you reach classes and pause, looking at the crowded classroom.
"___! You sit there next to Trafalgar." Mr. Ceasar says pointing at a tattooed teen that looked cold. His silver eyes pierce you and you take the seat next to him shaking already. He frowns slightly at that before looking ahead. "Now then, once the next bell rings we'll begin."
"Students are still coming? What a nightmare..." The guy besides you mutters.
"Y-Yeah.... I don't see why they don't do the renovations during vacation..." You breathe rubbing your cheek and looking down.
"Right? This is just more stress on the students that have social anxiety, crowding so many in one room." He frowns again looking around. You blink and look at him in slight surprise, he offers a smile. "I'm Law by the way."
"___." You relax a bit, taking the hand he offers.
"Nice to meet you." He rumbles before the bell rings.
"Listen up brats. I've seated the best with the worse in hopes of raising your test scores. So listen to the smarter on of you and you'll probably succeed, now, let's-"
"Are you implying that just because one does not understand anatomy that they must be dumb?" Law interrupts, again surprising you as he frowns at Ceasar. "You shouldn't say such demeaning things to your students, even if you are an asshole." Your jaw drops and Ceasar grits his teeth glaring at Law.
"Tch... I'll let you off with a warning this time Trafalgar." He growls before continuing with the lesson. You couldn't help but look at Law with admiration. He peers at you, offering a wink.
Damn he's cool....

You log off with a smile before climbing into bed with a yawn. "Goodnight..."
Wood work class was not what you signed up for. You were just put in it because your other choices were all full of people. Now It was even more so. You stood at your work table nervously, about to be paired with another Nova building student. Though you were curious after meeting Law, you were still anxious.
"Eustass, you go to table 17." Mr. Franky says. You pause, 17? That was your table. You look around for your new partner, until your eyes land on the approaching red head. He was intimidating, clearly built, pale skin, amber eyes and red hair kept back by a pair of goggles. He pauses blinking at you before offering a smile.
"Morning, I'm Kid." He offers his hand. You blink in surprise before taking his hand.
"M-Morning... I-I'm ___..." You squeak out. He blinks and tilts his head.
"Don't worry, I'm not a biter." He winks playfully before turning to the table. "So let's get started on the...Whatever we're doing." He rubs the back of his neck.
Saws were terrifying to you, especially since the sadist Heartless sent you those horror movie links for you to watch. Now every time you used one your imagination would show case the worst case scenarios and made you less motivated to work with a saw. Its getting too close... You swallow, about to stop completely but his hands come over yours making you freeze.
"Take it easy, you're in control, don't be scared..." He breathes guiding your hands away from the blade gently as makes the curve cut with you, just as the cut is finished, some rowdy guy bumps your table making it jerk and your heart skip a beat. Kid swiftly brought your hands to his chest, looking them over swiftly before relaxing and turning off the saw.
"Your arm!" You gasp and he looks at the already bloody cut before gritting his teeth.
"Hey asshole! Chill the fuck out! You almost hurt her with your screwing around, you piece of shit!" He grabbed the guy by the collar and you blanch. " Listen up you shits! If I catch any of you fooling around I'll saw off your writing hand got it!?" He demands to the rest of the class. They pale and step back as he releases the guy. "I'm going to the clinic." He adds to Mr. Franky before stalking out. You grab a towel and hurry after him, wrapping it around his injury and making him pause to raise an eyebrow at you.
"Are you okay?" You ask quietly. He blinks and nods.
"Yeah, you?"
"I'm good. Thanks." You smile. He smiles back.
"Good, if you weren't I would be tempted to go back and break that guys nose."
Damn he's scary...
