For a long while, the room was silent, each student waiting with bated breath to see what the trolls would do. The one called Kanaya was the first to act, nodding politely to the teacher as she made her way to the far corner of the room, sitting on the front row, two seats in front of Rose. The yellowblood, Sollux, followed, sitting beside her. It was only at the shoving hand of one of the officers that Karkat was moved, swearing under his breath as he took the only available seat, behind Sollux, and directly in front of John.
John's hands clutched the sides of the desk until they turned white, but he didn't dare speak. His stomach twisted itself into knots as he sluggishly registered the small nubs nearly lost in a wild tangle of black hair, the way the troll's old, faded clothing hung off his skinny frame. It was all horribly familiar, like someone had taken that awful memory and stretched it to fit an adolescent body. But that was ridiculous- there was no way this was the same troll. It just wasn't possible...But nonetheless, the old fear from that night came rushing back.
Forms were passed out, instructions given... but it was only when a slim finger prodded his side that he was brought back to reality. Beside him, Rose was tapping her fingers disapprovingly on her desk, looking at John expectantly. For a moment, he was confused, but then her eyes darted to the troll in front of him, and he knew EXACTLY what she meant. He tried to protest, to reason with her, but she silenced him with an insistent glare.
Turning back forward, he spent the next several minutes staring at the back of the trolls shirt, feeling Rose's gaze burn into his side. His heart was pounding, he was terrified... there was absolutely no way he could talk to a troll... but after several more agonizing seconds of uncertainty, he managed a tiny "um...", barely above a whisper. The troll's head snapped around like the boy had played a symphony. "What." he demanded, eyes narrowing dangerously.
The situation was critical. John's heart was beating so hard it was about to burst, and now he HAD to say something. Swallowing, his mouth suddenly dry, he pushed out a raspy "Hi," accompanied by feeble smile. The troll was not impressed. "Go fuck yourself" was his reply as he turned back forward, mumbling obscenities.
John didn't look up from his desk for the rest of class. An eternity later, the bell rang, and his punishment, it seemed, was over for the time being. Karkat had, of course, stormed out of the room the minute class ended, followed closely by one of the officers, with Sollux following closely behind, muttering something about "thtupid overreacting kk." Breathing a sigh of relief, John gathered his things up, and turned to Rose to find an empty desk. Looking forward, he found her doing the unthinkable... socializing. And she was doing it with a troll.
He took a step forward, listening intently to the quiet exchange. "It is very nice to meet you, Miss Lalonde. My name is Kanaya." "The pleasure is mine. I'd chat a bit more, but it appears my friend has taken up eavesdropping." John blushed brightly, looking away even as his friend beckoned him over. "I shall speak with you later, Kanaya." she said, smiling faintly at the elegant troll, and received a pleasant smile in response. "I look forward to it." she said, turning to leave. John blushed faintly, noting how properly and elegantly she moved, possessed of an almost ethereal grace.
Rose smiled, a strange gleam in her eye, but in an instant, it was gone, and her familiar, aloof gaze turned back to John. "One down, two to go."
