Arthur watched silently as Alfred put on an apron and gathered the materials. He looked on with great interest, Alfred was well built, but not too much. People call him fat but they haven't seen him with his jacket off, he's actually kind of ho- WAAAA?! Arthur tried to cover his face in his arms, his checks a burning inferno of embarrassment. 'What the actual fuck. I mean, sure he has a nice body! Whahahahah hahah, what the fuck. No. Nono. Die. Go away. You don't belong here. hahaha.' .

Alfred cautiously moved around his classmates, barely seeing over the mass of objects he was carrying. Reaching his table with no major embarrassment, he opened his arms and dumped the contents onto the table...and some onto Arthur's head. "Oh, hahaha, didn't see YA there dude! Sorry bout that! Ahhhahahaha!".

Arthur pulled his head out of the pile of scientific objects, his face still a beat red. Laughing nervously, which actually sounded a bit terrifying. "Ahahahaha ha, aha, hello Alfred how are you today hahahah!" Arthur's mind was in a jumble, trying to come up with an excuse for his embarrassing reaction.

"Dude, your face is sooooo red!!! Are you alright?! Hahah, did the chemicals get to your brain?! Haha!" Alfred continued to tease Arthur's embarrassment.

Arthur jolted up, standing, struggling to explain his situation. "N-no, haha, I....um...I was thinking of something that was funny, that happened at home, aaaand....I...laughed so hard my face turned red! Exactly what had happened." Arthur stood confidently, crossing his arms and puffing out his chest,a smirk on his face.

Alfred stopped teasing and stood awkwardly, uncomfortable with Arthur's strange out burst. "Alright man, whatever you say.. Dude...you're weird! Haha!" Alfred began to organize the lab in front of them, putting the test tubes in order on the rack. "Ya know, I completely forgot you were in this class! I guess I just never knew you existed! Ahahah!". The American laughed.

The Brits brow twitched in irritation. "Are you, implying that I'm invisible?" Arthur huffed and looked away, and put an apron on, as well as the goggles.

"Ah, n-No! I just...never noticed, ya know?! And if you think YOU'RE invisible, you should really get to know Mattie better!" Alfred put on the safety goggles for the lab.

"......who?" Arthur turned his head, confused on who this boy could be.

"HAHAHAHA! See what I mean?! Hahah!"Alfred continued to laugh while mixing the chemicals into the beakers. There were four beakers with a clear blue liquid. Alfred seemed pretty good at this sort of thing. Arthur figured it was time he contributed to the lab.

Arthur skimmed quickly over the instructions. .'heh, seems simple enough. I'll show him I'm good at chemistry too!' Arthur thought joyfully. Arthur took one of the blue-filled beakers and poured the contents into a test tube that was unlabled, and that also had red liquid already in it.....he poured in all of it. 'There that should be enough!'. He walked over to the portable burner, a large glass beaker full of water was resting on top of it. 'Is that supposed to be filled with water? Hmm, I didn't read anything on it...' Arthur proceeded with the project and poured the water out of the glass container and set it gently back on to the burner. Alfred continued mixing the contents into the beakers, two of which had already turned colours.

Arthur turned back to the burner and poured the blue/purple liquid into the glass container, then set the burner on high. 'There that should do it!' Arthur walked over to Alfred who seemed to be having troubles underneath their table. "Alfred what's wrong?"

Alfred sat up, bumping his head under the table in the process. "Haha, I can't find the fourth beaker...". Alfred crawled out from underneath the table and stood up. "Do you know where I put it?". Alfred smiled.

"Oh the beaker with the blue stuff? Haha, I though I would take care of it for you, and I put it on the burner." Arthur smiled back, proud of himself for taking an initiative.

Alfred froze for a few moments before going to the instructions in a hurry. "Um...Alfred?.....I'm going to go check on it..." Arthur started off to go check on the burner. Arthur looked at the liquid that had turned into a sickly green foam, dripping and overflowing onto and into the burner. Worried, Arthur reached to take it off the burner, but accidentally burt himself and stumbled.

Back at the lab station, Alfred found the problem, the red liquid, (which is combustable...) was supposed to be mixed with the yellow solution. And there was a warning to only heat the dark blue solution. This was a big mistake. Alfred turned to warn Arthur about the liquid, but saw him reach for the beaker. "ARTHUR DONT TOUCH THAT!" Alfred shouted across the room, it was too late, students heads turned in worry, everyone freezing in whatever they were doing. Arthur dropped the beaker and spilled the burning liquid all over himself. Luckily he was wearing an apron, so he didn't suffer any more burns than the ones on his hands. Then, (dear god) he tried catching himself on something, he put his hand onto the burner, burning himself even more, and pushing the burner off the counter.

The burner broke, sparked, and started a fire in the chemicals previously dropped. Alfred raced over and pulled Arthur away, to keep him from causing any more damage. Tino, the one Spanish guy, was close to the fire extinguisher, and put out the fire.

Alfred did a full visual check up on Arthur, whilst trying to ignore how undeniably cute he is- FUCK ITS NOT THE TIME FOR THIS!!!' . He seemed okay, everything but his burnt hands.

"Uh. Alfred, I would like to go to the nurses office now, if you please.". Arthur took his hands away from the ever worrying Alfred and turned to go to the nurses office, walking in utter embarrassment and shame. Alfred ripped his goggles off with his apron and raced to catch up with him. Thankfully missing the teacher who was turning the corner down the hall, to her horror, watched as smoke drifted from her room.
