The four girls sat in the small cafe on the corner of a street in the Tokiwadai, they sat on big leather chairs facing a dark mahogany table with their favourite cakes on the table and each with a modest cup of tea. "This is really good" Saten mumbled to Misaka, who was sitting opposite her, whilst munching on a piece of cake, holding the cake up to demonstrate what she meant. Misaka laughed at the sight. "Saten, it's really not flattering to talk with your mouth full!" she laughed once more as Saten embarresedly, as Saten placed the cake down and hurriedly tried to wipe her face of the crumbs that surrounded her mouth, Uiharu also joined in on the clear-up, clearly feeling responsibility for Saten and fussing over her. "No Uiharu, I'm not a child!" Saten retorted as Uiharu continued to pick pieces of cake out of her hair. "You're such a klutz" She said as she ignored Saten's request and continued. Sitting opposite, Misaka and Kuroko were in stiches at the sight. "You two look like a married couple" Kuroko said as her laughing subsided. "Just like we should be Onee-san" She followed up as she leant over to Misaka to steal a kiss, to which Misaka stopped her by planting her foot in her face, revealing what was under her skirt, whilst and fending off Shirai's ravaging arms. The waiter stood at the table with a puzzled look on his face as the two couples painted an interesting scene. Misaka realised what had happened and shouted at the waiter for looking up her skirt in embarresment, hiding that she was really just embarressed at the fact they were fighting like so in such a place. The four girls sat looking down gently sipping their tea, hiding their faces from the other customers in shame.

They left the restaurant in high spirits though, walking back to their dorms joking and playing with each other in the usual manner that they had come to know and love. Saten felt at home in this atmosphere, she wasn't letting anyone down or holding any of them back, unlike when they went on missions. She felt a small pang of sadness in her stomach as she bowed her head slightly and frowned at her own uselessness. She felt a pat on the back and heard "Aw c'mon, don't get us down now Saten, we still need to go shopping for some stuff for our sleepover tonight!" Misaka reassured her with her cheery smile and Saten couldn't help but smile right back at her.

The next day the sun was high and gave off a very lazy feel too all those who walked under it. Saten left Uiharu's house in high spirits as she plodded back home in a state of joy, things like that always made her feel much better, she loved having girly nights and watching trashy movies whilst shovelling down a tub of ice-cream, though Saten wasn't the conventional girly-type, she did enjoy some of the stereotypical things just as much as she did playing video games and watching action movies. She glanced both ways on the busy road as she slipped her headphones in and switched her music player on, "Hah.." she laughed inwardly at what she had just reminded herself of as she hit play. "Level upper, huh?" she said to herself as she crossed the road, forgetting that to the outside world she was just talking to herself, come to think of it, she really was just talking to herself. Saten laughed, as she found her thought train humorous in her light-hearted mood.

As she closed the door behind herself, having just get in, she almost said "I'm home everyone" but then remembered she lived alone before she spoke, a sad fact but nevertheless, her joyful mood didn't let her do anything but laugh at herself again. She rested her bag down as she slumped on her bed lazily, she hadn't exactly walked very far, but found it to be exhausting as the sun deemed this so. Her eyes shot across her desk that sat in front of the window which gave a nice view of the city, her notepad was sat open on a page with some writing scrawled across the page in her familiar, scrawly handwriting. It reminded her of her pleasant lesson she had and how it inspired her hope for her future and getting an ability.

EDIT: This is going somewhere, I promise, you'll see it next chapter :)
