I started to walk back to my music class before looking back towards Alfred. His head was buried in his hands, so I supposed that he was just as frustrated and embarrassed as I was.
     I decided to stop thinking about it for the time being and went back to playing for the rest of the lesson. I even got next lesson off because I was to continue with music practice, that was convenient. This way, I don't have to see Francis in class. I worry about Alfred, though, he would have to put up with him all lesson. He'd be pestering him about it, or at least giving him suggestive looks across the classroom, about that moment just then.

     After playing for around two hours flat, the bell rang for lunch.
     I stood up, placing my guitar down as I picked up my back, exiting the music building. Staring at my feet as they hit the ground, I walked towards the cafeteria to get my lunch. The best they had in this stupid school to eat really was a lump of bread, so that's what I bought.
     As I went into a large hall to sit down, I looked around. It took me a good few seconds to find Alfred, but I did eventually. The reason it took me so long was none other than that he had his head pressed against the table, hiding his face.
     I decided it would be mature and obvious to go sit with him, so I went for it. I sat next to him and poked his arm.
     "Oi. What are you doing? Your pizza is just sat in front of you right now, that isn't like you; you'd normally be scoffing your face. In fact, this is quite terrifying. What's up?" I asked him as he looked up to me, taking his glasses off and wiping his eyes underneath them.
     "Eh? Oh, don't worry, bro! It's nothing!" He replied in an exaggerated tone, smiling with an open mouth and laughing slightly to himself.
     "You sure? You don't seem okay. You know you can just tell me if something's wrong. What's the worst that I'll do?"
     He stopped smiling and looked down to the table again as he sighed. He then proceeded to shake his head and scoff down his pizza, just like he would on any normal day.
