'shun... Tell the teacher I can't make it today' he was in bed, hurting and ill again, as much as I wanted to stay and look after him, jushiro would murder me if I didn't get our class notes.

'yeah, will you be alright juu?' I was dressed and ready to go, I had ten minutes before class so I took a seat next to jushiro's bed to talk for a little.

He nodded 'yeah, I'll live, make sure you don't forget anything today, please'

I had forgotten an important part of the lesson last time, Jushiro was ticked, I promised it wouldn't happen again 'yeah, I promise, though was today physical?'

'no, that's tommorow, today there is theory and kido'

'Ahh, yeah that's right, I got it covered' I gave a smile 'make sure you sleep today.. If you can'

'I know.. I will, promise, now don't be late or you'll get roasted by Yama-jii'

I realised if I didn't leave soon I'd be late, I really didn't want to be roasted by yama-jii 'yeah, see ya juu' with that I raced to the classroom leaving jushiro in the dark, it helped him sleep.

Yama-jii was our teacher, his name was actually Yamamoto... Etc, it was super long and we had nicknamed him instead of saying it, he was a hundred or something of years old. though so far he had aged well, he looked about forty to fifty. Though he taught a class, jushiro and I seemed to be his favourites, despite my sometimes childish behaviour, he thought we had potential, by our second year in the academy, Yama-jii had us doing extra classes and training, we never really asked why, our teacher has a firery temper, especially when I would sneak into his room to look at the portrait of a firery monster that he said existed a long time ago, it had facinated me.

'I take it jushiro couldn't make it shunsui' I wasnt late to class but Yama-jii still looked angry.

I bowed 'no sir' then sat in my seat.

'then I expect you to pay attention shunsui' and with that he continued on with the lesson, it turned out that day we were learning bakudo theory to practice that afternoon, I made sure to record everything this time.

After I was free from classes, I took my time to head back, I recalled seeing a pretty red headed lady earlier in the day, just maybe I would be lucky enough to find her before I got back, alas I wasn't, oh well.

I had to go through the theory with juu but I wouldn't if he was actually sleeping, this afternoon he was when I let myself into our dorm, I was glad he was, it meant he would get better sooner, I'd just help him later, now I had some time to myself, I would use it to wonder and dream, we had been taught about the zanpaktou, the blades of our souls, you didn't recieve your blade until the third year, but when you did, you could start communicating with your zanpaktou and try and find their name, I wondered what mine would be like.

'how was class' I was brought back from my dreaming by juu's quiet voice.

I looked him, I had let it get dark in the room, or darker then it already was anyway, it was nice and cool 'it was good, not as fun without you though'

'that can't be helped... What did you do?'

'it was a new bakudo, an easy one at that' even though it was dark, I could still see jushiro's hair faintly, it shined in minimal light, I doubted he could ever really hide in the dark even if he wanted too.

Jushiro sat up and turned on the light, it was too bright for him to start with, then he got used to it 'why do you leave the light off, it's like we are vampires'

'I have studied it, you sleep better when it's off, can I get you water or anything?'

It seems he forgot just how much I pay attention to his health, he looked surprised 'you stalked my sleep to find that out? And yeah, some water please'

'of course, got nothing better to do when your sick' I got up and got him a glass of water, he drank it gratefully.

'I suppose, but that's kinda creepy shun' he smiled.

I loved that smile of his, when I first met him it was rare to see any emotion, now all he did was smile, I was proud of juu, he'd come a long way, the smile made him look a little less sick 'a little, but no one else is gonna do it' I gave a grin 'so how are you feeling?'

'better, much better, Was Yama-jii mad?'

'no, he could never be mad at you, your too innocent' I gave a cheeky smile.

'yeah right, so what was this bakudo I missed' jushiro worried too much about keeping up I thought, but I guess I was too leanient. I taught juu what id been taught that day, giving him the notes, it wasn't a good idea to try it in his state but he got the idea, on the odd occasions I got sick, jushiro would do the same for me, not that I was as interested, he would force me to learn if he had to, I really was lazy at times. Jushiro and I made the perfect team.
