Aladdin admired him. She had since the first day of school. He was smart, handsome, and he was an amazing student body president. Actually, he was good at everything he did. He could be intimidating sometimes, but she was mostly over it. He didn't really scare her anymore.

Aladdin sighed, waking up from her daydreaming. Her history class was so boring, the teacher didn't ever teach them anything, he just handed out papers and made the class fill out worksheets. It was hard for her not to zone out in the middle of class. She didn't learn anything in the class; she finished all her classwork and homework in the first ten minutes of class. It left her with more then half the class period to do nothing but stare out the windows and think about her crush. She looked at the assignment she would need to do in the next class. The chemistry experiment they were going to do today was pretty advanced.

She was a bit of a science genius, so she was placed in the most advanced chemistry class the school offered. It was the most difficult class she was taking, and it was by far her favorite. She liked her math and French classes too, but chemistry had a special place in her heart.

The first semester she and Kouha were lab partners. It was awesome because they got along so well. Also, Kouha actually understood most of what was going on, so she didn't have to do all the work alone like she had with a few of the other students she had worked with before they had gotten assigned partners.

Second semester was her favorite though. Sinbad dropped the class so he would have more time for his student leadership groups, which left Kouen without a partner. Kouha switched classes; he said he was dying to take the computer sciences class and it finally had an opening. As a result, Kouen and Aladdin became partners. Aladdin was pretty sure that the day the two became partners was her favorite day of her freshman year. It was even better then the first day of school when she had met so many new people. She had a chance to spend time with Kouen now.

It was good that she wasn't the type of girl to let her emotions distract her during class, because she would have failed the class otherwise. She still had the highest grade in the class. The class was challenging enough that she had to focus on what was going on or else she would get too confused. And she wouldn't let her grades slip she liked learning. Everything about her chemistry class made it the best part of her day.

The class was hard, even for Kouen. He was glad when he was partnered with the little genius. She wasn't an idiot like his last partner. Well, Sinbad hadn't been a complete idiot, he had just been more interested in paying attention to the girls in the class. That idiot wouldn't stop flirting with them. It had really pissed Kouen off. Why couldn't he just focus on the class like he was supposed too? He wasn't surprised or disappointed when his previous partner dropped the class. It made things much easier for him. He would actually be able to have a conversation about the class without having to listen to his partner drooling over the girl at the next station with the rather curvy body. It was a relief to Kouen.

He had wanted to pick the little genius's brains for a while, and now he had a reason to ask Aladdin to do things. It wasn't weird for him to invite her to the library or to get coffee over the weekends so they could talk about the class. He was pretty sure Kouha had switched classes just so they would be partnered together. His brother had a habit of doing anything to help Kouen out. He had definitely pulled through this time; Aladdin was able to answer all of Kouen's classes. And she wasn't just good at chemistry; she could keep up with him in history too. This little freshman impressed him.

"Kouen, are you listening to me?"

"What do you mean?"

"You had this zoned-out look on your face. I was asking if you wanted to study together on Saturday night for the test next week. It's supposed to be huge."

"Sure. Didn't we already plan on studying together though?"

"I just wanted to make sure. You were busy when I called last week so I just wanted to make sure."

"Judal came over to the house and no one else was home. There was no way I was going to leave him alone with Kougyoku."

"You don't have to explain yourself. I understand that this class isn't the only thing going on in your life. Anyway, I'm getting dinner with Alibaba and Morgiana so do you want to meet after that or before?"

"Probably after, I have to take care of a few things first. Stepmother is causing more problems then necessary again. The library or your house? I'd say my house but Gyokuen is bringing over her religious group again and I really would rather not have to deal with that another time."

"Yeah, let's not do that again. It really freaked me out. Kouha didn't give me any warning. Let's meet at my house, I think the library is doing an event or something this week. It's going to be too busy there for us to focus. Oh, I have to go. I'm supposed to be tutoring someone right now. I'll see you later Kouen. Bye!"

She ran off.

"Oi, Kouen! Are you coming or not? The student council meeting starts in two minutes. You are going to be late if you keep staring off after Chibi. Let's go."

"Judal, shut up. Sinbad is still talking to the teacher, I just saw him. And Koumei is off hiding somewhere. It's not like we can do anything without the senior class president and the secretary. Jafar is the only one ever on time, but he is staying behind with Sinbad so we are missing a treasurer."

"Then I will exercise my right as Student Council Vice President and force them all to get there asses there."

"Judal, let's go."

"That's what I have been trying to do."

Hello!

I really felt the need to write KouenxAladdin story. Originally it was supposed to be one long chapter but I changed it and now its going to be multiple chapters. This tends to happen a lot.

I'm not sure if I like how I changed it but whatever. I couldn't write it in one chapter. It just wasn't working.

Let me know what you think in a review. :D

Until Next Time!
