Summary
"After a few moments of Beau staring down at him, Caleb seemed to realize that she was still there. He blinked up at her, gaze coming more into focus.
“Ja, I’m fine. Let’s go,” he said, pushing his chair back from his desk. As if he hadn’t just zoned out for a full minute before responding. He stood up and left the classroom, not even waiting for Beau to follow him. So that was how it was gunna be today. Beau felt a prick of annoyance form at the base of her skull. Fucking perfect."In which Caleb is having a bad time, Beau and Nott confront Caleb about his past (it's mostly Beau let's be fair), and Molly is in the dark and kinda lonely (but trying his very best).
The second work in a shamelessly self indulgent, stupidly elaborate High School AU. Basically, the Mighty Nein are shoved into an after school program together. Slow burn bonding, angst, and probably cuddling to follow.
