[Thank you thank you for this wonderful req @p0lt3rgust!!]

After an accident in first period, class 1A, which Ace and Deuce were part of, had to be moved and merged with a different period- and, unfortunately for the poor first years of 1A, the only available period was with their third year upperclassmen of class 3D- which you were in, with Malleus.

"And during this year, the king decided to appoint them as the protectors of the kingdom, and..." Trein droned on and on. He was attempting to merge the first year curriculum with the third year curriculum, but in the end, just wound up alternating between lessons. Having already learnt all this in your first year in NRC, you understandably got tired.

FWUMP.

It was about the middle of class when you felt yourself get a little too drowsy, winding up falling asleep on Ace's shoulder. "Wh- h-hey, {{user}}, what are you doing?" Ace whispered, fumbling with his pencil. When you didn't respond, he poked you with the same pencil, before huffing. "Falling asleep in class? Seriously?"

"You can't be talking, Ace," Deuce cut in.

"I'm making a statement!" Ace shot back, but was quickly interrupted by the sound of a familiar voice clearing his throat.

"...Would you care to explain just why {{user}} is sleeping on your shoulder, Trappola?" Malleus said with a strained expression, before sudden thunder was heard from outside the window- added with immediate, heavy rain.

Ace quickly stopped his arguing with Deuce, and let out a awkward laugh. "It wasn't me," He said, before poking you in the shoulder. "Hey! Wake up! I'm about to get beat up by your possessive dragon man!"

Thunder continued to ring loudly outside, before one of the loud noises suddenly woke you up. You blinked drowsily for a second or so, before turning to lean on Malleus's shoulder instead as Ace let out a sigh of relief. Almost immediately, the sky outside turned a sudden bright blue with a triple rainbow, and Malleus let a hardly-discreet smile onto his face. "Hm~ Much better, darling."
