Terry's first week back at school was tediously boring, with the only exciting thing that happened was it starting to snow outside. He spent his weekends studying and in the library, but some days he liked to go outside and play in the snow. He built snow castles and snowmen, and dodged the other boys who wanted to throw snowballs around. His classes were still boring, except his art class, which he always looked forward to.

Reid had started the year's subjects, which were a lot more advanced than the previous years' classes. He had to sculpt, paint, and draw still-life, and learn more about shading and light. He was pleased that Reid seemed to let them all work at their own pace, on whatever they felt like. He had started his still-life, sketching anything around him. He caught himself drawing Reid a lot, but always threw these away in embarrassment. What would the art teacher think of him?

He was sitting at his small desk, starting another sketch of Reid when Pig decided it was time to start teasing him again. He had already been talking about his favors loudly, and around the teachers. Terry thought this was because the boy was so ugly, even he wouldn't do any favors for him. He wished he could say it to Pig's face, but instead he kept quiet.

Pig approached him, and bent over his desk, asking for an eraser. It was hard for him to do anything while Reid was watching him closely. "You better watch your back, bum boy. I'm gonna get you one day..." Terry sighed and ignored him, looking over to Reid as Pig walked away.
