~~ ETHAN ~~

"It looks like one of us has to sit next to that kid with the horns today..."he said frowning, and suddenly clapped his hand on Rodrigo's shoulder. He laughed nervously. "Thank you for taking one for the team, Rodrigo, you are the greatest brother in the world."he thanked with a smile. He left Rodrigo's side and passed the desk by the crazy students from earlier, instead heading towards the kid with the notebook; who looked normal compared to everyone else, and took a seat next to him and another blond boy.

~~ HIBIRD ~~

Hibird sat atop of his desk, mindlessly knitting a jacket for the young master while monitoring the room. Hibird scowled, eyes narrowing as the scumbags from Glamour obnoxiously entered the room. It was bad enough that Jecht's unworthy boyfriend was shamelessly flirting with every girl in class, but now Trixxtal's lackeys had arrived. Heaven help him, Lucifel was once again mouthing off about hell and calling everybody foolish mortals while Cepheus unsurprisingly was copying the math homework like the dishonorable bastard he was. He had no idea how those faithless losers managed to get so many dates. He still had no why Jecht, his brother in all but blood, adored the blond heathen who Hibird had no doubt would eventually betray him.

Two new faces entered the room and Hibird set down his yarn, but kept the needles in his hands as he glared at the strangers. He would need to immediately conduct a background check on them in order to ensure that they were not assassins after the young master. Luckily, Kyoya did not have this class right now, so he could safely interrogate them without worrying for the young master. One sat in between him and that fool Minato who dared be assigned as Kyoya's roommate instead of him. At least this new student did not sit next to the Glamour members.

"Who are you? And who was that with you?"he demanded, and the blond looked startled at the sudden address.

"Oh, uh Ethan. Ethan Smith." the new student answered, suddenly looking at Hibird warily. "And that is my brother, Rodrigo."

"Really now?" Hibird asked, a hint of skepticism in his tone, looking towards the black haired boy who looked nothing like the blond in front of him, "Well, Ethan, I have much I need to speak to you about. And you will answer my questions otherwise we will have *problems*."

~~ SEIRYUU ~~

He really did feel guilty when he saw Valor's happy smile disappear because of what he said, but the more Valor stared at him, the more that guilt was replaced with irritation. Couldn't Valor stare at something else, anything else, besides him? Seiryuu tried his best to ignore him and concentrate on the lesson, but to his horror, Mr. Madore spoke up the dreaded words:

Ok, you all will be working in pairs for today's exercise, choose your partners...

He groaned and did not bother getting out of his seat, knowing that Valor would be over to his side in his flash and not allow anyone else to be Seiryuu's partner.
