This will be the turning point for the story as it leaves the canon storyline. I may re-edit or make a new story when a new video from Katie comes out!

Clover solemnly strolled through the school garden, thinking of Claire. School ended early because of the earlier incident, so there was technically no homework.

But although classes ended and the other students had left, Clover had decided to stay in the garden to clear his mind. Most of them, anyways.

"Clover...?"

A female voice asked. Clover jolted and turned his head to the sound. Oh. Mister Rose's daughter, Alstroemeria.

"Hey, Meri." Clover greeted, smiling ruefully. Alstroemeria nodded to show that she understood that he didn't want to talk much at the moment and continued to tend to the Alstroemerias and Chrysanthemums.

(I'm not calling her 'Al' because that's already another character's name [Alast- *explodes*]. And yes, she's named after a flower like Mister Rose.)

In contrast to Mister Rose's bright attitude and polite demeanor, Alstroemeria was a quiet girl. Oh, no, no! She's polite! It's just...she has some trouble showing it due to her being more on the mellow side. This doesn't mean that she is antisocial, though. ([New Note] I don't think I meant for her to be a self-insert at all...)

"Clover? What are you doing here? School ended more than an hour ago." Mister Rose walked into view with Miss Hexi peeking out from behind him. He and Miss Hexi looked rather concerned. (NO THEY ARE NOT DATING-)

"Sorry, Mister Rose and Miss Hexi. I was just trying to take my mind off of today's incident." Clover sighed and answered nonchalantly, trying to not worry them.

Unfortunately for him, they had seen through his mask and were now sitting on either side of the boy. It honestly was a bit too much for the boy at the moment.

As Clover sat uncomfortably in the middle of the two teachers, Alstroemeria watched curiously from her peripheral vision whilst continuing to tend to the garden.

"Clover?"

Miss Bloomie called. She had offered to walk Clover home since she was his legal mother (not biological).

"Oh..hi..."

Clover answered tiredly. Miss Bloomie sighed in relief, as she spotted Miss Hexi and Mister Rose with him.

"Greetings, Miss Bloomie." She froze as a voice spoke.

"Oh-...Alstroemeria! I forgot that Mister Rose brings you here at the end of the day!" Alstroemeria smiled and returned the greeting from Miss Bloomie. Clover smiled awkwardly, letting his (your) mom (😨 WAIT THE JOKE-) know that he was uncomfortable. ([N/N] I kept the joke guys dw)

"...Why don't we visit Mister Rose's little graveyard, Clover? I'm pretty sure Claire was just buried there." Miss Bloomie offered. Clover's eyes shone as he agreed, eager to get away from the uncomfortable situation.

~Smol Timeskip Brought to You By Oreosᵗᵐ <3~

The walk was deathly quiet, except for the occasional chirping of birds. (I forgot to mention that Mister Rose's school garden is outside-)

'...I wonder how Engel is doing right now...he was pretty messed up after today...' Clover wondered. Miss Bloomie looked down at his melancholic eyes and sighed. "Look, Y/N. I'm sorry for-"

Clover cut her off. "No, no. I get it. 'I hAvE tO dO iT' and blah, blah, blah. There isn't an excuse for killing students, 'MoThEr'." He snapped.

Miss Bloomie stepped back in surprise, looking at the anger-filled boy. "Then why didn't you just-"

"I DID! YOU WOULDN'T LISTEN! AND IT'S THE SAME FOR ZIP, OLIVER, AND EDWARD! YOU ALL FAVOUR THEM OVER STUDENTS WHO DO THEIR WORK RIGHT! ZIP AND OLIVER WERE THE CAUSE OF CLAIRE'S DEATH!" Clover yelled as he let all of his emotions loose.

Miss Bloomie's eyes widened by a minuscule at Clover's outburst, looking at him in concern.

"Oh- I didn't mean to- crap..." Clover snapped his mouth shut, eyes wide with horror at what he had done. He couldn't exactly comprehend why he had done it.

(Dude idk how to write about boys this literally just sounds like a girl having a mood swing 💀)

"Bloomie? You okay...uh never mind...." Miss Hexi paused, and slowly backed away from the scene before her, not wanting to get involved, but was unfortunately caught by Miss Bloomie anyway. But not for the reason she thought it was.

Miss Bloomie was apparently...crying?

"*sniff* HEXIIIIIII..." She wailed, looking up at the taller woman. Miss Hexi just looked down at her, confused.

(I believe that Miss Bloomie is more of a quiet person so this isn't quite accurate to her character.)

"If you're THAT upset over what Clover said, I suggest you sort it out with him, Blooms." The Drama teacher sighed, rubbing the back of her neck. Miss Bloomie only sniffled in response.

(I just love making characters suffer don't I-)

"Well...I can't exactly apologize to him now...he ran away somewhere..." Miss Hexi deadpanned, shaking her head. "Of course, he did, Blooms. Now go find him. Don't need ta state the obvious." Miss Hexi scowled, ushering the smaller teacher out of the garden graveyard, cursing under her breath.

(She said, "Man why can't you just get the freak along???" [No lmao this is a joke she didn't say that- it would've been Mister Cubit to say that though-])

Short chapter, I know! Got pretty lazy and ran out of ideas!

New Comment --->

I adjusted a few of the scenes that I felt were too childish or weird for me, though I did keep the "your mom" joke. I also made the MC sound more masculine in the fight part instead of sounding like a wimp (in my opinion he did. Appreciate the support from those who thought he was written all right though :D).
