"Oh, well," the teacher awkwardly cleared his throat, "do you. . .uh . . Does Ms Quill attend sem classes as you, your highness?"

The teacher nodded hurriedly. " Yes, sir."
Adelen watched the exchange silently. He took her side and then disappeared back into the classroom. Somehow she felt longing for him more than before. It was in her heart and came to the surface and became a good throbbing.
"Should I escort you, Ms Quill?" The teacher asked with a small smile on his face and Adaline nodded.
