Continuous School

[Thursday, Lesson 6 - Science]

"Soooo cuteeeeee." Kaylee ran up to Lily as soon as she entered the room and began squeezing her as tightly as she could, like a boa constrictor trapping its prey.

"Alright, Listen up!" The teacher began to speak. "We are combining classes for this lesson. So form groups of three and do the usual."

"I wanna be with Lily!" Kaylee said rubbing her face against Lily's soft cheeks.

"Alright. Let her go." Ruby said. "She has turned bright red so you should probably let her go."

"Ah, sorry!" Lily regained her composure when Kaylee let go. She fixed her hair and looked at Ruby and Kaylee with a smile.

"So cute." The two of them said under their breath.

"Right!" Ruby said trying to compose the group. "What are we doing?"

"I think we have to follow this sheet…" Lily said picking up the paper that was given to them.

Kaylee said nothing but stared at Lily. Trying to resist the urge to squeeze her again.

"Kaylee?" Ruby said. "What are you doing?"

"N-nothing…" Kaylee slowly moved away from Lily without breaking eye contact.

"AND THEN IT GOES BOOM!" Ethan screamed from across the room.

"Stop it, you idiot!" Owen scolded him. "Let's just do this work… please don't bring back the vampire…"

"What are those idiots doing?" Ruby asked her group.

"Don't know, it looks fun though. We should also get on with our work!" Kaylee attempted to become organised and read over the sheet countless times hoping that she would eventually understand it.

"I don't understand…" She said finally giving up.

"Give it here." Ruby snatched the paper out of Kaylee's grasp and read it as quickly as she could.

"It makes perfect sense. All we have to do is follow this sheet."

"Hehe…" Lily said wondering what mess she just got herself into.

"Ok, so I just asked Owen." Ruby said. "Apart from wanting to kill his partners he seemed to be burning something."

"Burning something. That sounds dangerous." Lily slumped in her chair like a child, worried that the school was going to burn down.

"Don't worry!" Kaylee jumped up. After seeing a weakened Lily she wanted to whatever she could to help her. It was like she found an abandoned puppy in the rain. Kaylee wished to shelter it.

"What is all this?" Ruby asked.

"The stuff we need."

Ruby looked at the various objects Kaylee had retrieved. From Bunsen burners to toothbrushes. Kaylee picked up everything and anything she could find on her way to the storage cupboard, just in case they needed it.

Ruby journey into the pile and began rummaging through. She pulled out several objects and threw them away as they seemed useless.

"I didn't even know this school had steel drums." Ruby said.

"If you think that's surprising, wait till you get to the tarantula!" Kaylee cheerfully spoke as Ruby pulled her hands out of the pile as quickly as she could.

"HAHA!" Kaylee burst into laughter. "I was only joking! Right, Lily?" She looked towards Lily, who wore a mortified expression. Anyone would think she had passed out but she was just hanging on.

"Please don't joke about things like that…" Ruby said about to kill Kaylee.

"Sorry sorry. There are no spiders so don't worry."

"Snakes on the other hand…"

Kaylee's words made Ruby retreat again. Her hair was on fire as she approached Kaylee with murderous intent.

"Haha!" Kaylee continued to laugh.

"Here is a list of things. Get them out for me. Since you want to make jokes."

"Fine fine. I'll get them for us."

"OK. This is everything, I think?" Kaylee looked at everything in front of her. From the pile of over 100 objects all of which were various shapes and sizes she took out 3 things. A Bunsen burner and two small glass jars.

"What's the next step?" She asked.

"Why are you asking me?" Ruby said.

"I-i think we need to heat up what's in the jar…" Lily suggested.

"Of course!" Kaylee screamed. "It was right in front of me this whole time. Quite literally…"

"I think I feel Owen's pain now. I understand what it's like to put up with some idiots." Ruby said hoping it wasn't too late to change group.

"BLUUD!" A loud Ethan screamed from across the classroom.

"PLEASE STOP THIS! WE DID THIS LAST TIME!" Owen retaliated by attempting to set Ethan on fire.

"Looks like fun. We should try that."

"NOPE!" Ruby quickly stopped Kaylee from picking up the Bunsen burner and moved it as far away from her as possible.

"We shouldn't take after those three. Look, they are being sent out for it. They'll probably have to write an apology letter now."

Whilst Ruby attempted to control Kaylee, Lily sat in the corner doing the work on the sheet. She followed all the instructions perfectly and had no injuries or issues with completing the task.

"Hey, Look." She called the other two over.

"It's a purple flame."

"Ooh." Both Kaylee and Ruby stared into the flame to the point where their hair would catch on fire.

"Good job Team!" Kaylee said taking all the credit. "I think we did well."

"It was all Lily…" Ruby said trying to stop Kaylee's head from getting inflated.

"I'm just glad we had fun…" Lily said as she gently swung her body from side to side.

"So cute…" Kaylee slowly began continuing her approach on Lily. She wanted to squeeze her as much as she could and never let her go. Kaylee saw Lily as a stuffed toy that she would die for. If anything bad happened to Lily, Kaylee would kill them.
