OUTSIDE THE DIGANDI HOUSE.

"We could still talk. Just avoid fight. Think."

"If you say so. But it sounds like...... I just don't like it."

"Well, I don't really want to wait for school to start again."

"You're right, waiting would be strained. I suppose a party would be nice, then..." Selia blinked, looking up at him.
"If I may ask, what the hell were you doing wearing that outfit earlier?"

"Trying to get you and Karin to avoid me, or run away if I acted all weird."

"You know, I wouldn't have cared, right? But you shut the door on me.."

"...Oh, yeah. Sorry 'bout that."

"No problem." Too busy making out with Karin to care, weren't you!? She wanted to scream.

"...Otherwise... Selia, don't be mad. IgissthGaron." he muttered really fast.

"Oh, I'm used to it now," Selia said, looking restrained, but anger clearly in her voice.

"But, that's okay. Because she's like you, alot. I guess I sort- AGH. I don't like both of you, okay? So please, don't bother. Want to go for a walk? Or do you hate me? Look, just go home, I'm really tired."

"Fine. But, I'm not going home. I won't stay, if you don't want me to." Selia stood up and grabbed her jacket, not putting it on, then left- the normal way, walking out the door and down the street.

Antonio followed her. He stood in the doorway. "Hey, Selia." he called. "... Come on in. Despite being summer, it's pretty cold. Come use my fireplace."

Selia turned around and went back in. "Thanks.."

He lit it despite it being nighttime and his whole family was off in their bed, and gave her some floo powder. "Okay, off you go, now." He said jokingly.

"Thanks, again," Selia said, believing his joking completely.

He yawned, looking very tired, and with a wave turned around to go to bed.

Antonio's grades flew in.

Antonio:
Astronomy: E

Charms: O

Defense Against the Dark Arts: O

Herbology: E

History of Magic: A

Potions: O

Transfiguration: E

Antonio grinned. Good grades. Again. He tossed the letter into his trash and went onto his bed.

Eric and Fry were over. "Hey,"

"Hey,"

"Hey,"

"Eric's grades were amazing." Fry sighed.

"Mine were mostly O's." Antonio said.

"... Antonio's grades were better. What do you want to be?" Eric asked.

"I don't know. Anywhere away from THEM." Antonio responded. The two others immediately knew what he meant.

"I kissed Holly." Fry said randomly.

"I don't like girls. Nasty species." Antonio responded. Eric shrugged.

"Holly's nice, and pretty, and-" Fry snapped.

"Her boobs are too big." Antonio cut in.

It was suddenly really awkward and quiet.

[I lqtm'd.]

[who said what? o3o]

Fry stretched out on the floor.

"Ehhhh, it's getting quite late..." Eric sighed.

"It is? It's only six-thirty... PM..."

"That's late, won't your parents be worried?" Eric asked nervously.

"Nah, they won't care. They'll be too caught up in other stuff."

"Like what?" Antonio asked.

"I don't know. I'm just HOPING that they'll be caught up in other stuff."
