Alexander glances at the short boy two rows in front of him. He\u2019d seemed unfocused since Alexander saw him this morning, and it hadn\u2019t gotten any better in the hour-long period where they\u2019d been apart. He probably wouldn\u2019t have even noticed on any other day, but Nolan, unfortunately, sat directly in his line of sight for both the classes they had together every Monday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A nudge on his shoulder draws Alexander\u2019s attention from Nolan. His eyes linger for a moment, still pondering over Nolan\u2019s behavior, before turning his head towards the male on his left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou pining over Broody McDark-hair again, Alex?\u201d he whispers to Alexander. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2019m not pining over anyone, Logan. He\u2019s been acting weird all day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAll day, as in you\u2019ve been watching him this whole entire morning? Sounds like a love-sick stalker, buddy.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alexander scowls. \u201cI\u2019m not a stalker. He\u2019s just acting differently. I don\u2019t like it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBut you are<\/em> love-sick?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDo you boys have something to say to the class, Mr. Brooks, Mr. Wilson?\u201d Alexander\u2019s head snaps up the same time Nolan\u2019s does. Nolan twists himself all the way around in his chair to stare up at the blond and his obvious discomfort at being called out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNo, Mrs. Smith,\u201d Logan says, covering for the both of them. \u201cWe\u2019re sorry.\u201d Alexander glances at the short boy two rows in front of him. He\u2019d seemed unfocused since Alexander saw him this morning, and it hadn\u2019t gotten any better in the hour-long period where they\u2019d been apart. He probably wouldn\u2019t have even noticed on any other day, but Nolan, unfortunately, sat directly in his line of sight…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,3],"tags":[9,10,8,11],"class_list":["post-43","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-family-friendship","category-romance","tag-alexander-brooks","tag-logan-wilson","tag-nolan-caldwell","tag-sick-day"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bellesbooknook.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bellesbooknook.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bellesbooknook.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bellesbooknook.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bellesbooknook.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=43"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/bellesbooknook.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":44,"href":"https:\/\/bellesbooknook.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43\/revisions\/44"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bellesbooknook.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=43"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bellesbooknook.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=43"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bellesbooknook.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=43"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
