Melissa just smiled and nodded. “That’s great!” She said leaning on the desk again. “We still have a few minutes of class. Can I compare our answers I don’t think I did 2 right.”

"Sure! Number two was a bit tricky, I agree, and I don't know about number five either." Ciel turned her paper so Melissa could see it better. She was really hoping she got most or all of the questions at least close enough to the right answer. Re-doing them would be a pain.

Melissa nodded and erased something on her paper. "You got five right I think," She said smiling.

"Oh, cool. How'd you do on number two?" Ciel asked, glancing at Melissa's paper. She couldn't see anything wrong with it, but coming from her that wasn't saying much.

“Got it wrong but I figured out what I did and fixed it,” she said smiling wider.

"Oh, yikes. That's good that you were able to fix it, though. Getting it wrong but not knowing why is the worst," Ciel said, smiling back at Melissa.

Melissa nodded. “Yeah I hate it when that happens,” she said. The bell rang. “Hey I’ll see you at lunch. Meet you at the library again?”

"Mmm. Yeah, sure!" Ciel nodded and started to pack her stuff up. Now all she had to hope was that all the classes between then and lunch didn't assign too much homework.

Melissa has a little bit of work to catch up on by the time she got to lunch but she decided to do it after school. She really just wanted to hang out with Ciel. Plus homework’s the perfect excuse to be left alone. Melissa went to the library smiling wide.

Ciel managed to get a lot of her homework done in class, but she still ended up with a bit. It would have been a miracle if she hadn't, after all. But she really had nothing but time after school, even with the new club meeting she was going to. She opened the door to the library and looked around for Melissa.

Melissa was sitting in her usual spot. leaning on the arm. She waved at Ciel when she saw her walk in.

Ciel waved back, a big smile on her face. She walked over and sat in the spot she'd chosen as her regular spot. "Hey, there! How is your day so far?" Ciel asked, rolling her shoulders slightly.

"It's been good," she said smiling. "How about you?"

"Pretty good as well," Ciel said happily. "I got most of my homework done in class, and whatever's left, I can totally finish after GSA. What about you?" She asked, hoping Melissa didn't have to do any homework.

"I finished a lot but I have some makeup work from yesterday but I'll just do it when I'm home," she said. "I think I can go to GSA by the way."

"Oh, cool." Ciel nodded, really happy that Melissa didn't have any homework. "Really? That's awesome!" She exclaimed, smiling widely. "Now I have two people I know coming with me! It's going to be great."

Melissa smiled and nodded. “Yeah I’ll know for sure by gym,” she stood up for a second. “Well since both of us are free why don’t we do something fun?”

"Wonderful." Ciel grinned. She may have gotten a little too excited too early, but this was Melissa she was thinking about. "Sure! What do you have in mind?" She asked, looking up at Melissa.

Melissa thought for a moment. “We could…explore the school a bit or pick out different books here,” she said. “School library books are always so strange.”

"Huh. What if we… explore the school– I still haven't figured it out, sad as that is– and if we have time, we can look at the books around here," Ciel suggested, her lips lifting into a slight smile. "Because, you're right, school books are the weirdest."

“That sounds great!” She said. “I my way around pretty good but honestly there’s still some spots I’m not sure about.” She offered her hand to Ciel.

"Perfect!" Ciel accepted Melissa's hand and stood, a small, excited smile on her lips. Getting to know the school better would definitely help her, and going around with Melissa would make it even better.

Melissa smiled too. She tried to fight back a slight blush when Ciel took her hand. “Okay great! So where have you been getting lost?” She asked.

"Uh… over on that side of the school, mostly." Ciel waved in that direction. She was pretty sure it had a name, like the south or the whatever wing or something, but she didn't know what that name was. "It's all twisty and there are all sorts of weird corners and stuff. It's like a freaking maze."

“Oh the east wing yeah it was an extension so it’s all weird. That’s mainly where the gym and a few random classrooms are. There’s also a few hiding places,” she said walking in the direction Ciel waved.

(I was going to base this off my school but then I realized someone rich like Brandon wouldn’t step foot in my school lmao)

(Ha, that's honestly the same with my school. Nobody rich there, that's for sure! :)

"The east wing! That's what it was called." Ciel nodded, pursing her lips together slightly. "I'm glad you brought me to the gym, because otherwise… not good." She frowned lightly. "Any important classrooms? And are the hiding places as cool as they sound?"

Melissa nodded. “Well theres some guidance rooms and a second nurses office. Oh and the art room,” she said. “You’d actually probably be interested in there. Ms Kent let’s students hang in her room all the time,” she said. “Other than that there’s a few hidden hallways leading to emergency exits that I’ve hidden away in.”

"Cool, cool… ooh, and art room! I'll have to check that out some time," Ciel said, grinning with excitement. "But not right now, because you're here." She raised her eyebrows slightly. "Hidden hallways? That sounds awesome, but also not the best for a school." Ciel couldn't help but think of what could happen in hidden hallways, but quickly pushed the idea out of her head. Melissa had a boyfriend and there was no way anything would happen.
