After school, the SOS brigade were doing some work. As their leader, Haruhi Suzumiya, is still the same person she is now.

" Come on, people! We mustn't slack off!" Haruhi barked. Kyon looked at Haruhi.

" Speak for yourself, Haruhi! We have a person who is already slacken off!" Kyon said irritately. Haruhi looked at an autistic fat boy, Satoru Tanaka, who appears to be sleeping on the job. Haruhi stared at Satoru as Kyon got concerned. " Oh boy! Something tells me Haruhi's gonna be pissed at Satoru for sleeping on the job. This is not going to end well for Satoru!" Kyon said in his mind. But then suddenly, Haruhi went to the boxes...and grabbed out a blanket and put it on Satoru. " What?! Haruhi never done that before! Could it be that she's always nice to Satoru!" Kyon questioned in mind as he looked puzzled. Haruhi looked Kyon.

" Pretend you didn't see that, Kyon." said Haruhi. Kyon sweatdropped.

" I will..." Kyon said looking confused as they went back to work. By the time, it was getting late. So the SOS Brigade are heading home. " Hey! Satoru! Wake up! It's time to go home!" Kyon called Satoru as Satoru finally woke up.

" Oh crap! I fell asleep on the job again!" Satoru panicked. Kyon comforts him.

" It's okay. You couldn't help it." Kyon said calmly. Satoru calmed down as he looked at the blanket on him.

" Thanks for the blanket, Kyon." Satoru said. Kyon had to tell Satoru about the blanket.

" Oh I didn't give you that blanket." Kyon said. Then Satoru looked confused as he tried to figure out who did give him the blanket.

" Is wasn't Koizumi, was it?" Satoru said. Kyon shook his head, no. It wasn't Koizumi. " Then it was Nagato, right?" Satoru asked. Still, nope. " Mikuru?" Satoru asked again. Once again, nope. Then Satoru figured it out. " Haruhi?! Haruhi gave me this?!" Satoru said all shocked. Kyon nodded, yes, as Satoru got the right answer. Satoru looked puzzled. He realized that Haruhi never did that before.

" It seems Haruhi was so nice to you. Even I find that confusing!" Kyon said to Satoru, sweatdropped. Satoru looked puzzled for a minute...and smiled.

" I guess Haruhi wasn't that bossy all the time." Satoru smiled as he put the back of his right back to his chin. Kyon smiled too.

" Well, come on. It's time to head home. Your parents must be worried sick about you." Kyon said. Satoru agreed as they both went home. When Satoru got home, his mom went up to him.

" Satoru Tanaka! You came home late! Don't you realized that your father and I are worried sick about you?" His mom snapped. Satoru felt guilty.

" Sorry. I had to help Haruhi and the other with SOS Brigade work...again. But unfortunately, I slept on the job again." Satoru sweatdropped. His mom facepalmed.

" sigh Unbelievable, Satoru. You're never going to do a good job if you're gonna get a job like that! Unbelievable..." His mom looked stressed.

" Well, look on the bright side! Haruhi didn't yelled at me. She gave me a blanket instead." Satoru smiled. His mom looked confused...and then sighed.

" Look, whatever. Dinner's ready. Just go sit down and let's enjoy." His mom said. Satoru felt guilty as he got scolded by his mom. He sat down and enjoyed a family dinner. He also had homework to do too. After he finished, he watched his favorite anime and went to bed. The next day, Satoru is at school in the same classroom he always go to. Kyon was talking to his friends.

" Hey, guys!" Satoru greeted. Kyon and his friends looked at him, not saying anything. " W-what? Is there something on my face?" Satoru said looking all confused. Then Kyon finally asked.

" We're talking about you and Haruhi." Kyon said. Satoru looked shocked.

" W-why do you asked?!" Satoru said looking panicked. Kyon smiled. Satoru sighed. " Anyways, is Haruhi here?" he asked. Kyon looked at Haruhi as she's sitting at the window. " I guess she changed her hair again?" Satoru sweatdroppped. Kyon chuckled.

" Yeah...Say...I have an idea! Why don't you go talk to her? See if you can brightened her good mood?" Kyon asked to Satoru. Satoru's heart started pounding.

" W-why me?! I'm not very good at talking to girls!" Satoru panicked.

" It'll be fine. Just go talk to her.' Kyon smiled. So Satoru went up to talk to Haruhi.

" Um...Hi, Haruhi." Satoru said as his heart continued pounding. Haruhi gave him the silent treatment. " So...I like your hair!" Satoru laughed nervously.

" Thanks." Haruhi said, still looking at the window. Satoru was still nervous.

" Listen...sorry for sleeping on the job again." Satoru apologized to Haruhi.

" That's okay. You were tired." Haruhi said. Satoru's heart started to pound fast as he tried to say something else too.

" So anyways...thanks for the blanket you gave me!" Satoru grinned nervously. Haruhi went quiet for a minute.

" You're welcome. Look, I gotta get ready for class. Better talk to me some other time." said Haruhi as she's getting ready for class. Satoru felt bad to himself.

" Nice going, you idiot! Haruhi is peeved at you! A fine friend you are. Now she thinks I'm an idiot! Sigh Oh well. I gotta get ready for class too." Satoru said in his thought as he gets ready for class. Ichigo and Nagato looked at him.

" Hmph! Pathetic...He needs to learn how to be a man." said Ichigo.

" Just give him time. He'll man up eventually." said Nagato. Ichigo grabbed his workbook.

" Let's hope so." said Ichigo as class started. During lunch break, Kyon and Satoru were having lunch together. Kyon felt pity towards Satoru as Satoru looked sad.

" Is everything alright, Satoru?" Kyon comforts him again. Satoru looked at Kyon.

" Haruhi thinks I'm an idiot because I slept on the job yesterday. She's really angry at me." Satoru whimpered.

" Haruhi's going through some problems. Just give her time. I'm sure she's not mad at you anyway." Kyon comforts him once again. Satoru looked depressed. After they finished their lunch, their class starts. Satoru looked at the window, hoping that Haruhi will forgive Satoru for his lack of work.
