Strep throat?!

Matthew's evening went as planned; read a bit, then go to bed. But the next morning was terrible, his throat started to hurt, he went to the infirmary to make sure it wasn't serious. Unfortunately after getting a throat culture, the test showed he had strep. This sucked, he had to stay in his dorm a few days and miss school!

Gilbert, whom was passing by the infirmary, heard what the woman had to say to Matthew, or mattias, or Maxime..? Yeah. it definately was maxime.
As the young man got out of the room, looking sad, the albino jumped behind him, almost glomping him while he did so.

"Heeeeey Max! why are you so gloomy today?! " he shouted.

Matthewjumped and turned to see the albino, he forced a smile to assure him he wasn't entirely down.

"Oh hey Gilbert" He said. "Just a sore throat nothing serious" He blinked realising the name he's been called. "And my name isn't Max, it's Matthew"

Matthew..? Ooooh Of course it was Matthew!

"Is that so~? Then what's up with that sad face of yours then, Matthew?" He added, looking carefully at the Canadian. He has said his name right, right? Yeah he totally did. He was too awesome to mess his name up more than once in a conversation.

Matthew sighed a bit "Well, There's a chance it mght be step and I would have to miss out on classes"

Hearing what the blonde teenager had just said, The Prussian Gasped.

"There is a way to skip classes if you have a sore throat?! I need that!" The albino shouted once again. Discretion definetly wasn't Gilbert's type.

Matthew stared at him in a mix of horror and confusion. Why would anyone purpously get sick to miss class?!

"Gilbert! Being sick isn't fun...Why would you say that?"

Gilbert looked at the face the young Canadian was giving him. He didn't miss class on purpose? Really? Did Matthew really liked school that much?

"Oh God, you have alot to learn Matt~ Skipping school is awesome. Almost as awesome as me you know?! It allows you to take a break on whatever you are doing in class and relaxes you~ I'll let you know that it is a really good cure to stress" he finally said, patting the teenager's shoulder.

MAtthew sighed and shook his head.

"I'll never understand you Gilbert"

The albino stopped patting the boy and looked at him.

"And why is that~?" he said, still staring at him.

"You're so cryptic"

"Cryptic?!" he laughed. "I am only but stating the truth there, Matt~. Ask anyone in this school, beside that Arthur nerd and they will tell you that skipping school is an awesome break! " he finished, still smiling at the teenager.

"And just HOW do you propose to get my kind of illness to skip?"

Gilbert stopped smiling and looked at the boy, confused.
"You know that you are the one that told you would have to skip classes, right?"

Matthew rollled his eyes "Yeah, and you're the one who purposly want to skip. I don't even want this virus"

Gilbert looked at him once more.
"Now I am the one unable to understand you, Mattie." he finally said, confused.

"Sorry I tend to jump to conclusions...I thought you were going to try to get strep so you could skip class"

The albino looked at the young boy for a second.
"Because you can actually try to get strep on purpose..? I didn't know that!" he laughed. "Anyway, when I want to skip class, I just do it. Screw the excuses hehehe!" the white-haired teenager finished.

Matthew just shook his head "Well that's your choice I suppose"
