[center][b][h3][color=6ecff6]Eric[/color][/h3][/b][i]End of Lunch Break[/i][/center] Somebody's voice came from behind Eric and a hand clamped down on the professor's shoulder. He suddenly realized how this must look to other people and froze. Math and science were supposed to be [i]best friends forever[/i], that was a hoot! The hand that was blocking Peter's right hand side fell down to Eric's side, giving the smaller male a chance to escape. Eric kind of hoped Peter would take that chance, he didn't want to make even more of a mess of things then it was going to be. He glanced over his shoulder and saw that it was the guidance counselor of all people. The man who never seemed to wear proper attire and was always trying to extend his lunch... that must have been what he was trying to do now. This was such bullshit, he really didn't want someone psychoanalyzing him right now! Eric sincerely hoped the counselor wouldn't bother. What was the man's name again? Something uncommon that started with an I... Oh, Nicolas Ishiguro, his surname had always stood out to Eric. Wait a minute... That bastard had not only used Peter's first name, but he had also used his own. The two men hadn't ever had a casual conversation, yet the counselor was talking to Eric on a first name basis! While Eric was raging about this, he felt movement underneath him. Peter seemed to be shaking underneath him, his face a deep blush and his teeth clenched. It made even Eric feel slightly concerned about him. His eyes shown with the pure form of misery before he slightly started to move out from under Eric. Walking away with seemingly with no direction in mind. As soon as Peter was out of sight, Eric shrugged Nico off, uncomfortable that the counselor had touched hum. It wasn't like he was in any dangerous situation, yet his face went a few shades paler. His cool exterior had given away as soon as Peter was out of range, his juvenile anger leaking through slightly over his professional vocabulary. [color=6ecff6]"Dr. Ishiguro, I will not take this opportunity to criticize your attire, but I would suggest you check yourself. Both Professor Kalenki and I were out on break, the students are nowhere near this area, and if I may speak for both the Professor and myself, I would say we both would not like you engaging in our personal business. I will give you that you may have wanted to get Professor Kalenki out of a compromising situation, but you didn't have to, pardon my language, be a dick about it. I'm sure Kalenki can fight his own battles without your sass."[/color] Eric stood a good three feet away from Nico, keeping a clear distance between them. The man didn't feel even slightly intimidated by Peter, even if his words did [i]hurt[/i], but he felt quite the predator vibe from the guidance counselor. Even if he wanted to chew Nico out for barging in, he would keep a safe distance.
