"Araragi-kun. What do you want?" Her expression was stern and I could tell she wasn't in the greatest of moods. I gathered my thoughts and continued.
"I thought you might like a ride to school. I still have the cushion from last time if you wanted t-"
"Fine." Without another word she sat side saddle on the square rack hanging over my back bike wheel. I returned to my cycling postion and made off at a steady pace.
Several minutes into the ride, or what felt to me like forever, Senjougahara-chan spoke. "Can't you pedal any faster ?" "You'll fall off if I go any faster. Your not holding on to anything." Suddenly, I felt an arm wrap around my waist. I began to feel myself blush. "You can go faster now can't you?" I could hear the smile in her voice which, to be honest, made me smile to.
"Araragi-kun, your grades are horrific." I was sat in class like I do every school day recieving the usual abuse I get about my grades. "Would you like me to tutor you ?" I felt my jaw drop. Was she being serious or was she just mocking me. It's was hard to tell. "Umm, yes please." I said as quietly and with as little emotion as possible just in case she was joking.
"You can come round to mine tomorrow if thats all right with you." She was looking directly at me now. My desk is just to the left of her's right next to one of the classroom's windows. The idiots behind me are well know for throwing all sorts of rubbish out the window when they should be working. I suddenly remembered I was talking to Senjougahara.
"Yes, yes thats fine." I said franticly waving my arms all over the place. "Straight after school tomorrow." She nodded lightly looking at me as if I were crazy. BRIIIIINNNGGGG ! The school bell went suddenly signifying the end of the day.
"See you tomorrow Araragi-kun." She glided out of the classroom before I could reply. I packed up my things and started making my way out of the classroom when something caught my attention out of my peripheral vision. I reached down and picked up th object. It was a book. Senjougahara-chan's book. I inspected the cover for a second and then slipped it into my bag. I continued on my way home planning what I was going to do at my study date tomorrow. I began to feel myself blush again. Study date.
"Big brother ! Get up ! Get up !" I could feel my sisters kicking and shaking me through my bed covers "Get up !"
"Alright already ! I'm getting up !" I kicked off my bed covers and sluggishly crawled out of bed. I'm not a morning person so being awakened so rudely put me in a incredibly bad mood. My body felt heavy and my forehead was hot. Fever. I knew it was going around school but I didn't honestly think I'd catch it. I really he this doesn't interfere with mine and Senjougahara-chan's date. I mean study session. I got ready for school and made my way down stairs grabbing my bike lock as I go. I peer round the kitchen door. The toast smells delicious but I have no time to stop. Before my mum can harass me about breakfast being 'the most impotant meal of the day' I'm out the door, on my bike and cycling towards school.
