A sweet dream manifested itself in the real world. Like a ray of sunshine in an otherwise dull grey classroom. For Rolo, 'twas like a sign from above. That fate had ordained that the two shall be thrown together again and again. For the universe could only ever reach balance and alignment if they were to join as one. A union to be heralded throughout the ages. Ballads would be made about their story, and sung by the greatest of bards. On the courts of kings emperors alike. A love that blooms in the darkest of times, and brightens the darkest of lives.

Rolo stared at Corinne as she walked into the classroom. She walked past his desk. Passing him like he wasn't there. It wasn't very difficult to notice Rolo, even in a crowd. But it seemed like he was completely invisible to her.

As the class progressed, Rolo couldn't help but steal the occasional glance at her. For someone so sweet to love someone such as he. How lucky could he be?

Giggling could be heard yet again from near the front of the class. It was barely stifled yet it kept getting louder.

[color=lavender]"Do you find the suffering of the lower classes amusing young man!?"[/color] asked Mrs. Laherty. She was clearly pissed off.

[color=turquoise]"Uhh no miss."[/color] answered Divo.

[color=lavender]"Give me that note!"[/color] demanded the teacher.

[color=turquoise]"Hey!"[/color] exclaimed Divo as the old manatee snatched the note from his hand.

[color=lavender]"Check out the little cookie who came late to class. I wouldn't mind coating her with my frosting."[/color] read the literature teacher.

The class erupted into a sea of raucous laughter. Rolo noticed that Corinne was starting to look very uncomfortable. The amount of guilt and anger he felt started to boil over into a foam of violent rage. Rolos face was so tense that he looked like he was about to break his desk in two.

[color=orange]"Shut the hell up you squares! Or I swear I'll shove my fist up all your asses!"[/color] thundered Rolo.

The laughter switched off like a light. Nobody messed with Rolo.

[color=lavender]"My word!"[/color] exclaimed Mrs. Flaherty.

She considered sending Rolo to the principles office but she decided against it. She was secretly impressed with the authority the large student exercised over the others.
