Chapter 1 Ai-chan
"So, wait. You multiply 'b' by four plus 'c' times 'a,' and then you find the square root of that. 6.23865. Kaoru! I don't get it!"
Kaoru giggled at Misao who was sitting next to her. "Just take the product of these two over here," she pointed at a spot on the textbook. "And add it to this one." She moved her finger slightly. "And multiply it to this!" Kaoru clapped her hands to emphasize the simplicity of the problem. "See? Easy!"
Misao gave her a blank look. "Yeah, for you. You're the smartest girl in the entire city of Fukuju."
"Am not." She rolled her eyes. "Just work harder, okay? I'm trying my best here! Uh, Misao? Misaaaaoooo?" Kaoru's hand waving in front of Misao's face went unnoticed. "Moshi moshi?" She shifted her gaze in the direction Misao's was in.
"Oh."
A few meters away stood a tall boy - a junior - with ebony hair and a stoic glare planted firmly on his face. He was talking - well. not talking - listening to another junior with spiky brown hair and a red bandana who seemed to be raving about the prices of the school lunches and how they were impacting his profits.
Misao gave a giggle and sighed dreamily. "Aoshi-sama. You're much more interesting than math, Aoshi-sama."
"Snap out of it! I'm tutoring you now during lunch because you have a test next period. Remember?! Misao!" She attempted to ignore the sparkles in her best friends eyes. "And since when was he your master?"
"Since last week," Misao said in a sing-song voice, her hands holding her head up from the table.
"You know, you do have his school picture, so you can stare at him whenever you want! It's study time now! Do you want to fail?" Kaoru persisted.
Misao just gave another sigh.
"Mi-sa-o! Get a grip, will you! Tameiki-sensei's gonna get mad at you!" She paused. "Again!"
No answer.
"Wa-ke up!"
Still no response.
Kaoru tugged on her friend's arm, long braid, and ear. None but the last worked.
"Ow ow ow ow ow! Hey, cut it out! I'll study, I'll study!" Misao battered away Kaoru's hand.
"Good. Now then, where were we? Oh yeah. Okay, so you take this answer here and put it on the side for now. You plug this back in later, after you've done the quadratic equation to solve."
The bell rang.

"I think I failed."
Two certain sophomore girls walked toward Fukuju Middle-school to pick up a certain "little punk seventh-grader" and take him home.
Kaoru was Yahiko's next-door neighbor and sempai in kendo. Everyday Kaoru picked him up and walk him home as a favor to his parents. She enjoyed helping out the family, but didn't like it much when Yahiko called her -
"Oi! Busu! I'm over here! Hurry up!"
"Busu again, is it? Just wait till next week at kendo! I'll pound you!" She screamed at him.
"Hey, Kaoru, wanna borrow my kunai?" Misao offered.
Kaoru groaned. "No, I'll get him at kendo ten times harder than normal anyway." She grinned evilly. "Wouldn't want to kill him."
Misao smiled. "Well, I don't know about you, but since I'm staying over tonight I want you to be in 'let's talk about boys' mode. Not 'I am going to kill my little neighbor' mode. What do you think?"
"Aoshi-sama again?" She shook her head.
"Well, of course him! But I also heard from my sources that there's an amazingly cute new guy at your dojo! How 'bout it, Kaoru?"
"I'm not that into boys, you know that."
"But.! But. I know you're still sad about Enishi, but he was a jerk! You've got to get over him and move on!"
"Yeah, you're right," Kaoru confessed lamely. "We're here."
Yahiko had run off to his house by the time the girls stepped through the front door of the Takani residence.
"Tadaima."
A/N: Enjoy? Hope so!! Canchan here-this was written by Ashuli. She's written two of my chapters so you'll see her writing again later. Ummm. she's helped me write, edit, and listened to me ramble about my ideas so Ashie.. Thankies!!! Hmmm. I've been writing this fic out of order (a first for me) and so the first two or three or more that I wrote aren't too vital to the plot; they were just fun things that happened to me. Yea, I rambled for several days online and made Ash listen to me until I fully fleshed out my plot. This is just the first chap-an intro chap. So another will be out soon if not already. Canchan ^_^ PS. REVIEW PLEASE? Clicky clicky!!!
