Shizuma wakes up early to surprise Nagisa with breakfast in bed. After the events that occurred last night, she is going to make appointment with the doctor first thing this morning. But first breakfast. She slowly untangled her body from her wife's without waking her up. Once she is successful, she grabs her wife's silk robe and quietly slips out the room. She goes to the kitchen and looks for something to make. For a while she hunts and finally spots eggs, sausage. Bread and hash browns. Sei walks in and freezes. She blinks once and then twice. She focuses on Shizuma cooking and trying not catch the house fire, like last time. Sei strolls over and peaks on what she is exactly cooking. Shizuma spots her out of the corner of her. She turns around at Sei. "Good morning Sei, I hope you slept well" "Good morning? Yes I did thank you for asking." she scratched the back of her head and sits at the table Shizuma was offering. "Shizuma what's going on? You never do this unless it's something really special." Shizuma smirks victorious. "Have you read the newspaper or watched the news this morning by any chance?" "No did something happen? Shizuma what did you do?" Sei raises an eyebrow questing Shizuma and her evil ways. "I am shocked and hurt for you to that. I didn't do anything at all it was all Nagisa. I would never do anything to harm another human being." she openly mocks her in a hurtful tone. "Stop playing innocent, I known you since you were a child. I know you had something to do with whatever happened. Nagisa would never do anything to anyone. Now you on the other hand, we'll just say for now that I wouldn't put it past you to hurt someone when it came to a certain red head." Shizuma giggles, handing Sei the paper and walks over to flip the sausages and hash browns. Sei eyes watch her for a second and turns to the paper. Her eyes went wide when she read the front page: "CEO of trillion yen corporation arrested." she read on learning his actions. She glanced over the paper at Shizuma. "Shizuma what did you use fir Nagisa to go with this plan? Who did you use? It says here that he had drugs in system. I know Nagisa would never do such a thing. She is way too innocent, ever for you." Shizuma glares at Sei. She pulls away to place the food on the plates and sets it on a tray. She starts to carry the tray and freezes in front of the door. Sei sets down the paper and stares at her. "Sei can you make appointment with the doctor first thing this morning for Nagisa and second can you order three cakes each with different designs and flavoring." "I knew you bribed her! What was you plan and why? Yes I will call." Sei leaps off the chair and points at Shizuma. "Thank you. And Sei I will tell you later and please don't tell Nagisa about the paper she will be embarrassed if she knew." Sei nodes. Shizuma giggles and leaves. Sei shakes her head and picks up the kitchen phone and dials. XXX Shizuma sets the tray on the table next to the bed. She gentle smiles at the red whom she loved so much, sleeping peacefully. She possible disturb her when she had such a cute face, but she had to. She kisses her on the lips, Nagisa stirs in her sleep. Her eyes fluttered open and she stretches. "Well if this is a rare sight to see. Shizuma bring me breakfast in bed and the house isn't on fire." Shizuma playful pouts, "I will have you know I work hard and I have gotten better."

So I placing a body around you until I can figure out who is after you. I will not let anything happen to you." Nagisa stops eating for a moment and looks at Shizuma. "Shizuma I am ok, that was nothing I could really handle. But I will never do that again. And I think I know why Momomi and Kaname were there now. You knew that you would have someone you can trust and rely on if anything went wrong, I would be protected." "Yes Nagisa I would never put you in harms way. I actually have a warm heart you know." Nagisa giggled "yes I know I melted the ice around your heart remember." they both smiled and gazed at each other, looking back on the memories of when the first met under the tree.
