"Morning, Konoka!"

"Hey Asuna! Ready to go, as always, I see," replied the long-brown-haired girl.

Asuna giggled. "Yeah well, I get up early every day cuz of my job, so…"

Konoka yawned. "Okay, my turn to get up. I'm ready in like 5 minutes!" Konoka walked into the bathroom to get ready.

"Alright," said Asuna, "that just leaves Negi He better be up!"

"Nope, still sleeping!" Konoka called from the bathroom.

Asuna swaetdropped. "Okay Negi, if you don't get your stupid little—"

"Ngh!" Negi groaned weakly.

Asuna grew more serious. "Come on Negi, time to get up." No reply. Asuna climbed up the ladder connecting the two bunk beds. She gently shook the boy.

"A-Asuna."

The girl moved in to get a closer look at her teacher, then gasped. "Oh my—Negi, you're burning up!" Asuna said as she put her hand to his forehead.

A dressed and ready Konoka emerged from the bathroom. "Kay, Asuna, ready—"

"Konoka! C'mere!" Asuna cried.

"What?"

"Come here, Negi has a fever!"

"WHAT?" Konoka ran over. "Oh, poor Negi-kun! I'll get a thermometer!" After a minute, she returned with the thermometer, which Asuna took.

"Alright Negi, I'm gunna take your temperature," Asuna told him. She carefully placed the thermometer in his mouth. Then she turned back to Konoka. "Konoka, call school and tell them that Negi's sick."

"I'm on it!" said Konoka and walked away.

Asuna immediately turned her attention back to Negi. The thermometer read 104.5. "Oh man, this isn't good." She gently stroked his hair. "You idiot, I thought you said wizards don't get sick."

At that time, Konoka came back. "Okay, they said that Mr. Takahata's gunna be subbing for Negi. And the school said to give their best to Negi-bozu."

"Alright Konoka, you go off to school, I'll stay here and take care of Negi."

"But you can't cut school, silly! And Mr. Takahata's gunna be there – your crush!"

Asuna sighed. "I know, Konoka, but this is more important. If Negi's not going to school, neither am I! I mean, I'd love to go to school without him, Takahata's there after all." Asuna secretly smiled. "Anything to get rid of this annoying kid!"

"But you look worried about him."

"Just go to school already, Konoka!" Asuna pushed her out the door.

"Okay okay, if you say so." Konoka shrugged. "And Negi-bozu, please get better!"
