Maximus smiled, the right side of his lips going upwards. He shook Alastors hand and then pulled his back.
"Maybe later," he told Alastor and looked back down. "I mean, class isn't over for another forty minutes, but once it is, sure."
“ Okay!” he said happily. Once the class went on the more Alastor started to dose. His head dipping down
Maximus continued working on his sketch, shading and giving highlights using the oil pastels.
He worked until the teacher, Ms. Romano called that there were five minutes of class time left and that everyone should start cleaning up. Maximus got up, putting the oil pastels back and went to the sink in the back of the room to wash his hands.
Alastor had his head down on the desk, sleeping quite heavily. Some kids poked him out of literally poking fun
Maximus stood next to his seat, like everyone else and slid his backpack onto his back.
He noticed that Alastor was still asleep, a kid poked and he stirred and kept sleeping.
Eventually alastor jolted up at the bell. He quickly grabbed his bag and gathered his things "now to lunch!" He said half happily half tiredly.
Maximus smiled softly and walked beside Alastor.
"So you know where the cafeteria is?" He asked Alastor. He clenched his strap in his hand tightly.
"nope!" Alastor said with a laugh. His soft smile faded though as a few girls from their grade came up to him "h-hi," he said softly
Maximus turned and stared at them, waving a hand in the direction away from them and the girls scattered off, going back the way they came, Maximus took Alastor's arm by the elbow and lead him to the cafeteria.
"I don't eat here though," he told Alastor.
"o-oh, well would you like to go somewhere else?" He asked, tilting his head. " We can go somewhere else," he said softly
Alastor watched the girls go "thanks, as much as I don't mind the attention, I'm not into girls," he blurted out
Maximus shrugged.
"Everyone has a different preference I guess." He said and steered Alastor towards the doors of the stairway to the locker room and made his way halfway up the steps before plopping down and pulling out his lunch.
"We have three lunch periods, so while kids are at lunch, there are classes going on and so the stairway is always empty. Plus this isn't the main stairway, just the one to the locker room and there's no gym classes after third period, but they leave the locker rooms unlocked for the athletes." He explained.
(just slacking around the house, I'll be less active until I get ungrounded)
"really?" He asked and smiled "seems like a nice hang out, I'm surprised there isn't more people here then.." he said and looked around. Alastor was wondered by how well the school was kept in shape
Maximus shrugged.
"Usually because people think it's weird to eat lunch in the locker room stairwell and prefer the cafeteria, with other people." He explained and gave a small smirk. "I, on the other hand, do not."
" I'm glad you don't" he said softly " they get too loud, and me and sound doesn't work to well" alastor mumbled
The blue haired boy pulled out some snacks and ate them peacefully
Maximus smiled politely and dug into his lunchbox.
He began to eat the bag of popcorn and finally broke the silence when he was done with the popcorn and moved onto his fruit snacks.
"So why'd you move here, of all places?" He asked curiously.
“Just.. Problems.. “ he said and lowered his head. Some scars become visible on his neck “ the gay kid isn't always the most liked person in the world..”
Maximus nodded understandingly.
"I don't think you'll have a problem with that here," he told Alastor, taking a ziploc bag of white cheddar cheese out and beginning to eat them. "We even have a GSA here, they meet every Thursday after school until like 4:30."
“Wow, this school has everything,” he said and chuckled, Alastor hadn't noticed it, but his face had flushed as he admired the other's features silently
Maximus bobbed his head in a nod as he ate.
"Yeah, I went to every meeting like my freshman year, but the crowd just isn't for me." He said and smiled. "But you could go, I would go with you, so you're not alone."
“ That would be nice,” he mumbled. The blue-haired boy pulled a small bag of chips from his pocket and snacked on those for a moment. “ so you’re?….” Alastor had to think about how to put it. “ so you're apart of lgbtq?”
Maximus nodded and smiled very softly.
"Yeah," he said between chews "i'm pansexual."
“I'm just gay,” he said and laughed. His hair fell into his face. His smile was something of a sun ray. He had sharper canines than most, but it fits his crazy style
