As we turned to the noise we could see Alphonse sitting on the ground and Cadmael's sword completely destroyed as well as a nearby oak tree. I jumped up and ran to Cadmael:

"Are you okay? What happened?"

Gilbert looked at Alphonse and smiled:

"You are not asking the right person."

He extended an arm to help Alphonse up. He was shaking but was fine. Cadmael smiled and stared at his sword innocently:

"I guess I got a little carried away.

-A little? Asked Gilbert."

The teacher came running and started shouting at Cadmael:

"What do you think you are doing? Alphonse could have gotten seriously hurt!

-He is fine. I would have stopped if he didn't dodge.

-What happened for you to behave that way? Can't you control your strength at all? Do you know how expensive this sword was? Are you going to pay for it?"

I quickly jumped in and proposed to pay for the sword but for some reason Cadmael stood between the teacher and I completely blocking me.

"Take Alphonse to the infirmary. Check him for any injuries."

Cadmael shrugged:

"He is fine."

The teacher didn't listen to Cadmael and Alphonse got taken to the infirmary for a check up while Cadmael was being escorted to the principal's office. We couldn't follow them so Gilbert and I stayed behind. I was being really worried however Gilbert on the other hand couldn't care less and already forgot what happened:

"Oh I had something to tell you!

-Yes?

-Something really strange happened. I think Andrew told me the truth.

-Does he lie often?

-That's not what I meant. He told me he liked someone and maybe he does.

-What makes you say that?

-He usually sleeps around with everyone but now that I think about it he spends all his time with me and we don't even sleep together. I don't know what's gotten into him. Is he really in love? How could that happen?

-Who would he be in love with?"

Gilbert laughed:

"I don't know but RIP for the happy person."

Gilbert suddenly shook his head:

"You know what? It can't be. I'm sure it's just a phase. I started thinking about it because I felt as if he kept coming to see me but I'm sure I just read too much into it.

-Why don't you ask him?"

Gilbert seemed really surprised by my question:

"Why would I do that?

-If you ask then you'll know for sure.

-I guess you're right.

-He did say that he was in love with a man right? Isn't that enough by the way?

-I have no idea what's going on in his head."

Cadmael finally came out from the office and I ran to him:

"What happened?"

Cadmael shrugged while smirking:

"Nothing. It was an accident and Alphonse is fine. They just told me to pay more attention in the future.
