Arthur's roommates.

After all students were tested, they were taken for a tour around the military school. They were delighted by the modernised training grounds, huge buildings and more so the fancy canteen as expected from young adolescents.

They reached a certain huge building. It's black giantic doors open in which they entered finding a tall slender woman with light green eyes, her dark hair in a ponytail in a black round dress. To put it simply she was a beauty that comments flew.

"Wow, am I dreaming? Really beautiful."

"Oh, no! I wish I could get her number!" Another exclaimed. Comments continued flowing as expected from young adolescents until she chimed in.

"Good afternoon, everyone. Am sgt. Mildred." She said it in a gentle tone.

"Wow. I think am going crazy. Her angelic voice."

"Oh no! What's this magic? Am drawn to her just by the voice." Another lamented.

"What's going on? How can her voice be so beautiful."

"So this will be the safe place to keep all your belongings." She said as she pressed her bracelet like theirs. Soon, they heard a 'beep' sound on their bracelets. It was a locker number and a password.

"So let each of you keep your belongings now. Don't worry. Each of you has a different password." She said with a smile. There were many cubes having 200 lockers each 100 side by side.

As they were looking for there locker number, sgt Kareb inched closer to whispering in her right ear.

"I told you not to dress too prettily. Now look at the young boy's stare." He whispered in a gentle voice.

"Why? Are you insecure?" She asked jokingly with a chicky smirk. Surprisingly, these two were a couple.

They were then taken to their dormitories. At the boys' end, it was one large building having three floors. Arthur's dorm was on the second floor room number 1702. On entering it, he found two Deckers and one single bed. A table with five dark brown chairs, a closet with five doors and a black door of the bathroom beside it.

He found three boys, two seated and another standing near the Decker.

"Hi, am Janquinn." The one who was standing with blue eyes greeted him stretching out his hand.

"Am Arthur." He replied.

"This is Pablo (light green eyes) and Martinez (golden eyes)." He introduced the others.

"So what if our roommate is an asshole like the others?" Pablo asked frightened.

"Then, I will have to deal with him." Janquinn assured them.

"So Arthur, what do you say?" Janquinn inquired. Before he could reply, the door cracked open. In front of them was a tall student with red eyes carrying a black bag pack. He had head sets around his neck and an earring on his right ear. Behind him was a man in a black suit carrying two suit cases in his hands.

The student moved forward stretching his hand.

"Hi, am Alfredo. You can call me Alfred." He said with a smile but they were all frightened afraid to shake his hand of course this was an exception for Arthur until Janquinn braced himself shaking it.

Alfred turned to the behind him.

"You can go. I will take on from here." He said.

"But...." The man wanted to object but when he sensed the frosty stare, he backed out bowing and leaving.

Alfred gently carried his suitcases to his closet.

"This Will be your bed." Pablo said gently in a soft tone.

"Ok, thanks." Alfredo replied with a smile as he threw himself on it.

"Please, inform us if you need anything." Martinez voiced.

"Ok, I need something." He claimed as he sat exuding a nobility aura. Pablo and Martinez's hearts sped up:

frightened.

"What is it?" Martinez stuttered.

"All I need is you......" Before he could finish his sentence, Martinez chimed in trembling.

"No.... No... N..o.. please.... ask for something..... else." He trembled falling onto his knees.

"I can't give you that. We are both boys." He continued bowing down. After his speech, Alfred burst into laughter.

"What do you mean by that?" He asked.

"That's not what I meant. I want to tell you that you can talk casually to me. Am not like them." He continued with a hint of laughter in his voice.

Martinez felt really embarrassed for his wild thoughts but he didn't care anyone would have been scared.

Another day had arrived. It was 5:30 am when Arthur woke up walking directly to the bathroom to put on his lenses when the bell sounded. It was time for their routine exercises.

They ran around the training arena jogging dressed in black uniform track suits. Just next to Arthur was Alfred as he had taken interest in him.

Arthur had already talked to Alex to stay away from each other and he agreed but after much objection. It was really difficult convincing him. Next were pull ups, push ups, sit ups and many other workouts.

They were given around one hour to freshen up and prepare for the next activity. Entering the dorm was Arthur and Alfred.

"Hey man, don't you think one hour is a bit small." Alfred asked as he sat on to his bed.

"Yeah, I think so." He replied a bit precise. That's when they heard the door opening: their roommates had arrived.

"I will be in the bathroom." Arthur said going to the bathroom.

"I guess he is punctual." Alfred claimed with a smile.

After they cleaned up, they went to the canteen to grab something to eat. On entering, they found students seated in their different factions as usual. The rulers on the spotlight jazzing away. Just next to them were the archers in the corner. The other corners had other factions.

Arthur got his food going to his faction expecting his companion to go to his. But to his utter surprise, he didn't. He followed him and sat opposite him smiling as they received many stares but continued eating.

"But I think it's best if you sit with them." Arthur suggested. Of course he didn't say it because he was scared but because he didn't want attention.

Alfred arched a brow before replying. "No, why would I? You are my friend. I should do what I like." He replied with a smirk. Before he could say anything, they heard plates clashing with the ground.

"Oh! Am....so....r...ry." the small young man with golden eyes apologized to the red guy fuming with rage in a wimpish tone.

"To hell with your sorries." He snapped at him as he stood up in rage. He was a total lout.

"Is that gonna resolve this mess?!!" He growled at him.

"So in return, I will give you a good beating." He said as he grabbed his collar couching his fist as his friends were cheering him on. The young man braced himself for what was coming as he already had bruises here and there.

Alas!! An unexpected situation had come their way. The punch was literally knocked away by an equal or even more force.

"Don't you think that's a bit too much." Alfred asked in an angry tone.

"What the hell does it have to do with you." The guy asked angrily letting go of the young man's collar who was already shaking falling onto his knees.

"I can't stand seeing Injustice." Alfred replied to him. The guy was really agitated throwing a punch directed to his jaw. Alfred dogded it with ease taking a few steps back making the guy stumble to the ground.

He was faced with embarrassment in front of all the students. Alfred no turned on to his heels to his seat.

"Wow!! That was cool."

"Oh!...Oh! I didn't see that coming."

"Man, that's cool. Did you see how he Dodged the attack? Really awesome."

"That was expected. Don't you see the headbands? He is higher in rank."

"Oh!.. That's right. He is an AA." The bell rang and it was time for classes. Both of them moved out of the canteen. Soon receiving ding sounds on their watches. Checking them, it was the classroom number.

"Hey, which number have you received?" Alfred asked him in anticipation.

"Room number 3B." He replied.

"Wow, I guess we are meant to be." He rejoiced. They moved to their class. It was relatively large with five rows crammed full of students jazzing with friends. As usual each of them was seated in his/ her faction.

The middle row harboured those from the ruler's. Just next to them on their right were the archers and on the left the bwarts'. The cultivators' and the purposive at the extreme ends right and left respectively.

Both of them went and sat in the cultivators' row with the weakest students immediately receiving frosty stares and soon becoming the hot topic of the class.

"What is he doing? Does he think he owns the place?"

"How lowly of him. Gosh.... Trampling our reputation." Another lamented.

"Wow! He is really in our class. Am excited. He's really handsome."

"I told you he's different. He is caring." Comments continued flowing like a stream both good and bad.

Until a girl couldn't help it immeadiately posting the news. She had light green eyes accompanied with heavy make up. Her headband branded with a medium coloured crystal.

"Wow!! Guys. He's in my class." She didn't need to specify who as he was the hot topic.

"Waaa, stop joking."

"Am not."

"Prove it." She was told as she stood up taking pictures of him posting them.

"Wow!! He is really cool even in offside pics."

"Yeah, so cool. He is mine." Another commented.

"Ha!! Who says so?" The girl who posted snapped.

"Guys, wait a minute. That guy next to him. He's he same from the canteen."

"Yeah, that's right. I wonder who he is to him."

"And if you look closely, he's seated with the 'greens'."

"Wow!! So sweet."

"So different and caring."

The teacher soon entered the class. He was a tall slim man with blue eyes and small lips. He wore a military uniform and a tab in his hands.

"Um..... Good morning, everyone. Am sgt Wallen your homeroom teacher." He greeted as he started roll calling. Most of the students were waiting in anticipation for Alfred's name to be called. It was finally time for their grand anticipation to be released. He's name was soon called on.

"Alfredo Baker." He called out.

"Am present." He said in a soft tone. All of the students were staring in his direction. Some in disgust and others in amusement. As usual some girls tried to look good in front of him. It didn't take long for his name to spread. The internet was on fire yet another round.

The girl who had posted about Alfred immediately grasped her phone and typed away in excitement. Her name was Emma. Her words were simple but it didn't take long for the whole school to grasp about the situation.

"He's name is Alfredo Baker." The first comment appeared in 5 secs.

"Wow! Such a cute name with good looks."

"He's beautiful as he's name. Phewwww. Am going insane."

"Thank goodness. I finally know my crush's name;; am so excited."

Most of the students had their phones typing away despite the presence of the teachers. Of course this excluded Arthur and Alfred who knew nothing as if they were in their own world.

Apparently, Emma had gained followers from the moment she posted about him. Finally, the teacher was out as it was time for break.

The base was once again on fire as students were running towards 3B. Peeping through the windows, shouting his name in unison. Of course this excluded the rulers and the archers.

A group of five or so red students were seated not far away from the block.

"Huh!! He has caused quite a scene." One of them with dreads and a big nose said fuming with rage.

"Yeah, he is giving them a little hope." The one on the extreme left stated.

"I think we should stop him." The one next to him suggested.

"No, let him be. I will crash him in front of their eyes." The other who looked to be their leader retorted with a smirk as the others also smiled satisfied with their plan.

"Alfredo!!! Alfredo!! We love you."

"Thank you. You're the best."

Alfredo felt frustrated on hearing this.

"How did they know my name?" He asked Arthur by his side.

"I really don't know." Arthur replied as the realized something as he checked the base forum.

"Hey, from the internet."

"But how?" Alfred was confused.

"I think someone linked your name."
