"I don't see any point in being mean…" said Arthur, "It's pointless…. and all it does is hurt others more than it does good."

“I know…” He muttered, “Tell that to dick head one, two and three.”

"How about we avoid angering the idiots?" said Arthur slowly, tensing at the thought of getting hurt.
(Be back in a bit, have to go eat.)

Kyle glared slightly, “Way to point out the obvious. And besides, I don’t find them, they find me.”
(Okay)

Arthur shrunk back, a lock of red hair falling into his eyes, "I don't know what to tell you then…." he said softly,
(I am gonna disappear when my dinner is served, but not until.)

Kyle sighed, glancing a look to the otherside of the room before looking back, “Then don’t say anything and avoid the topic. So… where’d you come from?”

Arthur paused, thinking about how to answer that. "It… it's a long story…." he said carefully, not really wanting to go into it.

Kyle nodded a little, balling up his hands in his sweater before wrapping his arms around himself, “Okay. I won’t push if you don’t want to tell. I’m practically a stranger.”

Arthur sighed a bit in relief, "thanks… for understanding…." he said softly. "Most people push on that…"

Kyle smiled a little, “It’s your life. If you don’t want to tell I shouldn’t pressure you too.”

"Unfortunately for me… most people don't understand that concept" he said sighing.

Kyle nodded, “I wish people would, it would make life so much easier.”

"Mine too" said Arthur with a smile, glad he'd found someone that understood as he brushed away the lock of hair. The hand accidentally knocked back his hood in the process, revealing the rest of his dark, ember red hair.

Kyle leaned forward just a little but, tilting his head to the side as he gave the other a quick once over, “How’s school been going for you? Well, this morning’s classes anyway?”

(Ok… Sorry about that, my mom was having issues…
Arthur sighed, "Ok I guess," he said, "I mean… I have a ton of classwork to do now, and I'm behind on literally everything…" he closed his eyes for a second. "I'll catch up… somehow…"

“Do you…” He sucked in a breath, “Do you maybe want me to help you with anything? If not that’s fine too but I can help if you need me too.”

"I'd actually really appreciate some help with the science work…." said Arthur quickly, "If…if you don't mind that is…"

Kyle shook his head maybe a little too quickly, “No, I don’t mind,” He smiled a little, “After school then?”

"Yeah…" said Arthur, "I can meet you at the front gate? And we can head to my place?" he asked it tentatively.

“Sure, sounds like a good plan.” His smile grew just a little.

(Omg….. I'm so sorry…. I don't remember what happened… I probably got interrupted by family and accidentally closed the window as I was typing….. Sorry… I promise this doesn't happen often…)
Arthur smiled faintly, "Great. I guess I'll see you then.." he said softly, blushing softly for some reason.

(It’s fine, don’t worry about it)
“Yup, see you then.” The bell rang shortly after that, signalling the end of lunch. Kyle packed up his things quickly.
