*yawns* ... *zones out* ...Oh!

I do not own Strawberry Panic.


The brown haired beauty woke up to find that she was along in her room, yet again. The girl roll onto her side, in hope of going back to sleep but stopped when she heard the sink in the bathroom being turned on and realized that her girlfriend was still in the room. She stretched as she stared at the ceiling. Momomi decided to just lie on her bed and wait for her crimson eyed girlfriend to come out.

Soon after, the girl heard the door knob clicked as it was being turned. The bathroom door began to open, revealing dark haired girl. The younger girl knew her girlfriend was already done. Her gaze started to slowly drift towards the tall girl. "Morning Kana-chan." Momomi said as she rolling back onto her side.

"Morning Momomi." The tall girl said as she walked towards the closet.

The other girl couldn't help but gaze at Kaname, who was ruffling through a mountain of clothing. She knew where the other girl's uniform was, but chose to just watch her dig through her closet. And after staring at the other girl for a good ten mintues or so, Momomi decided to get up. She quickly hopped out of bed and walked towards the other girl and gave her a morning kiss. Surprisingly, it was the younger girl who pulled away from the kiss this time, but only to move toward Kaname's neck.

"We shouldn't...class starts in an hour." Kaname said in objection but did nothing to resist. Instead she placed her hand around the other girl's waist.

Momomi lead Kaname towards the bed. "Don't worry...We have time." The girl whispered seductively into Kaname's ear. And without a moment to spare, Momomi pushed the older girl onto the bed and began to unbutton her shirt.


Kendo, that'll fit Kaname-kun quite nicely. The red head continued jotting notes into her book, but stopped when she across a bad thought. Momomi...I needa get Kaname away from her as much as possible... The girl bit the end of her pen in frustation. I guess making her join just a "few" more clubs shouldn't be too bad." The girl smiled deviously as she started writing in her book again.


"You heard it too?" "Yea!" "What?" "We heard some scary noises last night." "No way? Really!" "Yea, but I heard it was just two lovers outside." "Really? I heard it was some creep trying to sneak into the school." "Maybe it was just some animal. Or maybe...it was a ghost!" "Eeeek! Stop it guys. You're scaring me."

Shit. They heard that last night? Kaname thought as she listened to the group talking. It's barely even afternoon and everyone's talking about it. ...These rumors srpead too quickly...Well, it doesn't seem like they who made that noise, so we're safe. Kaname adverted her attention from the girls to her book. Kugimiya really needs to be careful.

"Hey Kaname-kun." The girl strolled over to the seat behind Kaname.

Well speak of the devil. The tall didn't bother greeting her back.

"Seems like we're all they're talking about today." Kugimiya said as she leaned over her desk. She was quite happy despite the fact that they could've been caught last night.

"Just be thankful no one saw us." The tall girl claimly stated. "I don't even wanna know what those Miator sisters would've done if they even caught us."

"Yea, yea..." Kugimiya waved it off. "Oh and before I forget..." She dug out a small memo and tosses it front of the other girl. "Here."

"What's this?" The dark haired girl flipped though the small book.

The red head quickly pointed out. "It's your schedule of clubs, events, several meeting, and such."

"And you decided this without me?" Kaname asked in a tone that clearly showed that she was mad.

"Well, that's why I'm showing it to you now. But really, it's not that much." Kugimiya said almost immediately. The girl flipped the memo to another paper. "These are the clubs that'll probably best for you. Just take a look."

Kaname went from glaring at the girl to looking at the memo. Archery, Kendo, Tennis, Basketball... "These are all sports." The tall girl said in a questioning tone as she skimmed though the rest of the list.

The red head brushed her hair behind her ear. "Well yea, it suits you. And plenty of people will be cheering for you, on and off the court." Kugimiya explained; leaning over the other girl's shoulder.

"Stop that. People are going to be suspicious." The tall girl said. Her eyes began to wander around classroom. Thankfully, everyone was too occupied with their own little conversations to notice anything.

"Of what?" Kugimiya asked but received no response from the other girl. Soon the silence became awkward, which caused uneasinesses for the red head. Kugimiya finally obeyed and retreated to her seat. "At least consider it, please? The dance is only a week away. You'll only need to stay in the clubs for a short period of time." She finally said.

The crimson eyed girl slowly closed the small memo. "...I'll consider it..." Kaname could've sworn she heard the other girl say "thanks" right after that. Knowing her, she probably has a goofy looking smile plastered right on her face. The girl merely shurgged it off; she couldn't have cared less.

Soon, many students began to return to their seat, which was a good sign that class was about to start. As the dark haired girl her notebook, she realized that she had forgotten something and reached into her school bag. Kaname quickly placed the pieced of paper onto the red head's desk.

"What's this?" The girl questioned, though she had a pretty good idea what it was.

"It's for yesterday." Kaname stated before facing the front of the room again.

"I told you I was paying for it." Kugimiya insisted. She tried to return the money, but the other girl simply refused to take it back.

"You and I might be partners, but we're still not friends. So you have no need to treat me to anything." The dark haired girl said coldly.

Even though Kaname had agreed to "work" with Kugimiya, she still didn't like the idea of actually being around her. It was only the idea of "defeating Amane" that made the girl stick to the red head's plans. If it wasn't for that, Kaname would've went back to ignoring the girl's existance.

As the hour hand allined itself with the eleventh mark on the clock, the classroom grew silent. Everyone began doing their classwork, with a few people who would occasionally pass a few notes when the teacher wasn't looking. As for Kaname, her mind began to wander. She was almost in a "trance-like" mode, but still managed to intake everything that was being taught.


"You mean the two lovers? I know right!"
"How romantic!~"

Hmph. Two lovers. Momomi twirled her pencil around as she listened to the gossiping group. She began to daydream of how Kaname would do something romantic like that with her. Sneak out at night, for a romantic date; a walk in the park, a visit to the beach, or even a small dinner at some resturant, as long as could be together alone. They would just talk for hours, not caring about the world around them. Kaname would hold her, not wanting to ever let go, and tell the younger girl how much she loved and how much she needed her in her life. Momomi desperately wanted to her the simple yet complex words of "I love you" come from Kaname.


When the school day finally ended, the sun, which was slowly moving towards the western skies, was still shining brightly in the sky. Most of the school girls took advance of this great weather to head outside and have some fun. However there are still some, namingly Kaname, that isolated themselves in their rooms.

As soon as the tall girl got to her room, she threw herself onto her bed. Great, now I have a headache. She placed her arm over her forehead and closed her eyes. No matter what, she couldn't shake this bad feeling about partnering up with Kugimiya. Just the fact that she wouldn't even tell Kaname her objective for entering this contest was already concerning. But not only that, she seems to get these "bad vibes" from just being around the girl. The tall girl covered her head with her pillow, hoping to block out the thoughts. Momomi and I started anew, so why am I still so focused on defeating Amane. The girl gritted her teeth out of anger.


After finishing her own class, the brown haired girl headed towards her room. "Kaname?" Momomi examined the room and found her girlfriend lying on the bed with a pillow over her face. There you are. "You weren't in class last period, you okay?" Momomi asked in a concerned voice.

"Uh, yea. I just got a headache." Kaname yanked the pillow off her face and looked up at the other girl. I wanna tell Momomi, but how will she react. "It's best it she doesn't know." Even so...I don't know what to do.

"Sorry." She sat besides the dark haired girl as she brushed the girl's hair with her fingers. "I hope it wasn't because of this morning." Momomi teased.

Kaname smirked. "Heh, if anyone should be sorry, it should be me." The older girl placed a hand over the bruise she left on Momomi's behind, which made the other girl flinch. The two couldn't help but laugh after that. Soon, the two were lying in bed together. Kaname lied on her back while Momomi cuddled besides her. The brown haired girl fell asleep rather quickly, but Kaname was still wide awake, still deep in thought.


A/N: Mother Nature sure hates me...Now before you guys think I'm talking my "monthly gift" I'm not. Apparently a tree knocked out a telephone line around my neighborhood, so my internet got cut off on Saturaday. Otherwise, this chapter should've been up already.

Also, I'm trying to upload these chapters two times a week since I pretty sure most of you guys are tired of reading these bits and pieces. I know I've been dragging this story long enough and I probably lost the few readers I have. ^^; I just wanna thank you all for even bothering to read my chapters (if I can even call it that). Hopefully the next chapter will be in by Thrusday or Friday.

I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter and please review. :3

P.S HAPPY 4th OF JULY EVERYONE !
