His eye, at least - Austin knew for sure was the nosebleed was all about. He recalled back to all the tests he'd done for the rest of the day after lunch, deciding to skip the rest of school and push his limits. He'd had around 12 - 13 nosebleeds in total, and even felt kinda lightheaded once. He would've sped to school, but it would've probably crumpled the [url=http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/05/15/article-2629428-1DE11DFA00000578-661_634x901.jpg]suit[/url] he'd been forced to wear for the occasion. He had no idea why his dad had made him wear the damn thing, as [i]he[/i] of all people should know how out of place he looked in a suit. Grumbling under his breath, he spotted a spare seat and plopped himself down in it. He would've gone to see how Jay was, but it didn't take a genius to figure out who'd caused the black eye. Besides, both Scout and Alicia had decided to tend to him, and Austin didn't want the spot to get overcrowded. Especially since Austin had disappeared for the rest of the day on Monday. The teen decided to look around for a bit; see who else had shown up. He knew a lot of people would be busy with jobs, and college, and whatever else mature people did. A smirk begged to sneak across his lips, but he held it down - he wasn't gonna do something like that at a memorial service. It did humour him that he was possibly the only one in the room without some kind of job or duty to tend to. Comic book reading was fine for him, thanks. He looked at the speakers who were preparing themselves. Some were obnoxiously excited, others trying to calm their nerves. He noticed Rachel Lewis up at the podium, rehearsing her little script. He groaned to himself, already bored, and wanted to slap himself for not bringing a comic book. Sure, it was a special occasion, and a sad one at that, but he got so booooooooooooored. Having to tag around with his dad at work all day was better than this. He looked around again and sighed to himself, before getting up and walking over to Jay. [color=D79100]"Heeeeeeeeeeeeeey! Hope it isn't getting too crowded around here. By the way, what the hell happened to your eye? Was it King, by any chance?"[/color] He frowned with half-concern, half-upset.
