Edric was never sure how the hell he got you to date him. You're a genius, you're great in school, you're well behaved. You are great with words, everything about you is so much higher than him. Edric slid into a seat next into you at lunch and laid his head on your shoulder with a smug smile.

"Wanna come over to my house later? I need help with animal handling homework, and my mom is at a friend's house," he wished he didn't have to tip-toe your relationship around his mom.

He glanced at your apple's blood and not so subtly swiped it from the table for himself as he added, "Also, I got a pet bat now, his names Batric so I hope you're not allergic."
