Leon and Alfred

After watching enough of Leon's embarrassment, Rio stepped out of his car and started walking towards the entrance.

Aldric, who was mocking Leon, stopped joking and walked past him.

"Back from the dead huh." He said as he went forward to hug Rio and welcome him. "When I saw your shadow's name in the list, I was curious, but _ there was no need for that, if you just called me, you know."

"It doesn't matter. Let's go inside." Rio said and started walking through the stairs.

From the beginning Leon kept his head down thinking Rio or anyone from the academy shouldn't see all this drama - but when he peaked up, he saw Rio staring at him. "I _ it's not.."

Leon wanted to explain he didn't have anything to do with this, but Rio just turned his head and ignored him like a stranger.

Seeing the ignorance, Leon just felt even greater insult then some taunt, making him then frown.
