Got no clue how I wound up there, but I think I fell through some kinda creepy purple wormhole and woke up in the middle of class. It was real freaky for me. First off, who the hell trips and wakes up in the middle of class? For a sec I thought I hit my head on something stupid and blacked out- wouldn't be the first time- and that's how I wound up in a completely different place than I remembered. But when I noticed who all were sitting in front of me and where we were, I had a fucking heart attack. Nothing made any goddamn sense and..." He wiped the nonexistent sweat off the back of his neck and glanced away for just a moment. "I blurted something stupid and got laughed at, shit like that. So I made some excuse to leave on the fly and ran out before anyone could follow me. Get my head together, y'know? I had to ditch school just so I knew what the hell was goin' on. Actually, I think you were dogging after me down that hall 'cause I heard those boots of yours stomping around, but you never caught me~♪."

The tail end of his explanation was sung out in that teasing neener-neener way children like to do.
