“Kel, wait up.”
Keladry turned, smiling at Faleron as he jogged up beside her. He didn’t miss the disgruntled look on Cleon’s face.
“I’m having some trouble with maths,” he began, affecting embarrassment.
Cleon crossed his arms and glowered pointedly from behind Kel.
“I was wondering,” he continued, totally ignoring him, “if you could, you know, take some time to help me? Of course, I totally understand if you’re busy...”
He presented a bashful smile, something he was rather good at and which few ladies had ever been able to refuse. Of course, he knew it was going to take a lot more than a bashful smile for Kel, at least in the long run.
“You know you don’t have to ask,” she scolded. “I don’t mind at all.”
Cleon rolled his eyes.
“If you could find time today, that would be great.”
He watched triumphantly as Kel thought for a moment and then said, “Actually, why don’t you go get your book and meet me in my room? I was going to spar with Cleon, but we can do that another time, right?”
Cleon forced a smile and said graciously, “Sure, I don’t mind.”
“Good,” she said. “I’ll see you in a little bit.”
Both boys watched her double back the way she came, disappearing around a corner. As soon as she was certainly out of earshot, Cleon snarled, “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re doing, King’s Reach.”
“Why, Kennan,” Faleron said airily, “whatever do you mean?”
