Author's Note: Ara Sorry! I think my work ethic with this isn't too great. Let me try and ease this up for my readers, (well, the ones that are left…): I think I will post one chapter a week, at least. That way, for those of you who check a lot, (I'm one of those people who, once getting a good fan fiction, will check a lot!), this may be easier. I'm sorry; I wish I could work better… But the whole typing thing gets to me. Ha ha.

"Would you mind spending some time with me?"

There. He just saw a flicker of movement on the left. That made it the twelfth time. Shuu sighed; was Haruka so oblivious? She had brought him outside and they were walking around the perimeter talking. And being spied on.

Haruka was very happy. Spending time with Shuu was always great, but being spared from others made it even greater. The only thing that spoiled her mood was the fact that there were some boys slightly, oh how to put this, stalking them. Just slightly.

"We're going back. Now." Shuu said, grabbing Haruka's wrist and dragging her back in the general direction they had come. He couldn't stand having these people bothering him and buzzing around like flies. If only the fact that there was a lady present, he would squash them all.

Haruka could tell that Shuu was annoyed. She supposed that he noticed all the other boys as well. The thing was that she didn't want to leave. Of course, she wished that all those other fools would poof away for a while, but she loved being outside. Besides, when had she been the one to obey Shuu?

"Hey! I don't want to go back in just yet!" she said slightly upset that she couldn't get out of his grip, but at least he wasn't able to move forward. The reason of that was because she had dug her heels in to the ground. Shuu pulled harder, "Why don't you listen to me like a good, little girl, and come inside?" "I happen to like the outside! Besides, when have I ever listened to you?!" "You listened to me for coordinating tips, and you'll listen to me now!" "That's different! I like the outside!" "You also like food, but I don't see you stuffing yourself to death right now!" "Shut up! If you want to go back in, then go back in by yourself!" "So you are as stupid as you look!" "Geez, Shuu—" "It's 'Drew', May."

She shut her mouth. He having corrected her about his 'real' name stung her. She didn't understand completely why, but she understood at least a little bit. Having a completely different name was just like never even knowing him. It was like he didn't want her to know him. It was like he didn't care.

But she knew. She knew he did care. That fact didn't make it hurt any less, though. Just like having a bee sting you, and have a band aid just to cover it.

He just pretending made it hurt this much. Then how much would she hurt if he wasn't pretending?

Shuu glared at her as she seemed to have deep thoughts as her eyes glazed over. He had wasted his breath lecturing her for the last minute or so. He calmly exhaled and released only enough energy to hold her back. He inhaled deeply and exhaled again with his eyes closed. Then he opened his eyes quickly and tugged at her with all his might. The boys all around swore they saw a dangerous glint in his eyes.

Haruka was brutally snapped out of her thoughts as a powerful pull sent her tumbling forward, straight in to Shuu. Except Shuu had quickly sidestepped her falling form.

He didn't think that he had pulled hard enough to make her fall. He could have caught her, and he should have, but upon instinct, he sidestepped. Plus, he knew that the grass wasn't too hard. A smirk began to appear on his face as he started a cheeky remark, when a hand shot out and grabbed the neckline of his shirt.

Since Shuu had so 'skillfully' sidestepped her, Haruka thought that she could regain her balance by grabbing on to his arm. She reached out and blindly took hold of something. That 'something' felt like cloth. It most definitely was not an arm. She fell face flat on the ground and then felt something not-so-light fall on top of her body. She felt flat. Haruka started pounding the ground, gasping for air.

He fell to the ground along with Haruka. That had been unnecessary. Luckily, he had landed on something soft. Unluckily, it was Haruka. Shuu lifted himself quickly recovering, off of her and started her for being so rash. The he heard what she was gasping…

"So…heavy…Lungs…crushed…"

"She stayed on the ground even after Shuu had gotten off. Haruka did not realize that Shuu could hear and understand every word she was softly gasping. Then she felt some weight back on her back. "Who's so heavy?" he growled, pissed. "Lungs…!" she groaned heavily. She scrambled up using strength she never knew she had and managed to slip out from underneath Shuu.

Haruka ran hard, laughing, as she got away from the pissed off Shuu, who had landed on his butt. She ran harder when she heard him following.

A couple of minutes later, he caught her, and growled,

"Where are we?"
