Son? Huh. Edward wanted to just follow right behind Jonathan, but unfortunately some of the boys had taken it upon themselves to heckle him over sounding like a nerd before, apparently. It might have ended even worse, but luckily Edward knew how to charm some of the girls in class, at least temporarily, making them speak up to have the boys lay off him.

He assumed that really would only lead to more hurt down the line, but at least it meant he could follow behind Jonathan. Of course, by then it was too late and he had to go to his next class anyway.

It wasn't until it was time for detention that he did see Jonathan again and he just sat down next to him this time. "If I knew what was good for me, I wouldn't be stuck here."

He just continued their exchange, as if the hours between then and now hadn't passed.
