A/N: I'm bored. I won't be held responsible for this story, since when in such a state anything is likely to happen. I do not own Negima, and by the way you can take this short blurb as my way of saying, Happy 2008.
A Day Indoors XXVIII
"I am never going to drink anything one of the girls gives me again." Negi said with a splitting headache as he sat up in the bed. He wasn't particularly interested in getting up, since after the New Year's party he'd intended to stay indoors all day.
The previous night's party was a complete haze. Everything had been innocent enough at first, he and the girls in his class had gone to Ayaka's mansion for dinner and short celebration and then everyone had split up to go to the get-togethers for their respective clubs to ring in the new year.
The 'Negima' club, namely Negi and his partners, had gone to Evangeline's resort for their party, checking in slightly before midnight. Negi could scarcely believe that the girls had managed to party for the entire twenty four hours. Their intention had been to leave the resort just before midnight. Now Negi was having problems remembering what had happened.
Normally, this wouldn't have been much of a problem, except for three things. One, he was in someone's dorm room and he was fairly certain that it wasn't the one he was accustomed to staying in. Asuna and Konoka's familiar effects were absent. Two, he was completely naked. He looked around the room for some sign of his clothes, but they weren't anywhere he could see. Finally, as he looked to the side of were he had awoken, it was abundantly obvious that he had NOT spent the night alone.
Negi looked around apprehensively, almost expecting things to jump out of the woodwork at him. He was accustomed to demons and monsters jumping out and going for him. That was normal. Right now irrational images flooded his mind, like a pregnant student jumping out and screaming 'you're the father', or the headmaster stepping out to say 'you're fired', or even worse Chamo jumping around saying 'welcome to the club'.
Negi groaned and tried to stand as his world spun for a little bit. If he could find his staff, or his ring, maybe he could cast a spell to relieve his pounding headache. He rose and wandered around looking for some sign of his staff, clothes, or the normal occupant of the room. None of the three immediately presented itself though.
Negi felt a little vulnerable walking around naked, but since no one was around he could at least afford to try to figure out where he was. The idea of stepping out into the halls of he girl's dormitory scared him worse than anything he'd imagined thus far.
Negi walked over to the desk and sat down. It was tidy and clean, with the books arranged neatly across the bookcase, and all the pencils neatly stored along with erasers in a case. There were a few writing assignments from his class arranged in a folder which showed excellent if not perfect grades. The name however had been blotted out, so that the person who had written the papers could not be identified.
Negi began to worry. If someone had actually gone to the lengths of eliminating their identity from the room, it did not speak well for what possibly had gone on there last night. While these scores indicated someone intelligent, the 'juice' the girls had gotten into at the party could turn fools into anyone, apparently himself included.
The groggy mage looked up at the bunk beds when realization struck him. Oh no, there's TWO girls that are supposed to be living here. Negi climbed up to look at the top bunk. The bed was neatly made, so whoever else might live here apparently hadn't been here last night. Negi finally sighed and went to the closet. Inside, were clothes that definitely indicated a member of Mahora Academy, but who? Negi cursed the skirts the girls wore as not giving him any real indication of the height of his sleeping companion from the night before. Then, his eyes fell on the drawers that contained… those things.
The prodigy gulped as he looked at the place where Chamo spent the majority of his time in Konoka and Asuna's room. If he could figure out… how large… well it was worth a shot.
Negi quietly opened the panty drawer and chanted to himself that he was only there for information and the Chamo hadn't succeeded in turning him into a pervert, yet. Having just spent the night in the bed with one of his students naked, Negi was beginning to have his doubts. Inside he found the underwear of the room's occupants. Negi lifted up one of the bras and examined the cup size. Training bras! Negi thought as he began to feel sick. Whoever he'd been with had been little more than a child! Well, I guess she's a woman now.
Negi slapped both of his cheeks and reminded himself that he was STILL younger than the rest of his class so he was still a child too. This didn't settle his thinking though. Okay, I've got a fairly smart girl with small breasts, who does that mean?
Negi ran down his mental list of the smartest girls in his class: Chao, that's sick; Hakase, not smart enough; Ayaka, not ahem large enough; Asakura, likewise; Akira, slightly larger and little less intelligent than this girl. That only left… oh God… Nodoka.
Negi stood there stunned as he ran through the possible scenario. Nodoka had been with him and the others at the party. Yue probably gave her some strange 'juice' to drink too. That, or Haruna had decided to arrange last night for the shy pair. They were both drunk when they left the party and staggered back to the dorms. Nodoka probably was helping him since she's nice like that. He was drunk and Haruna and Yue probably agreed to stay out all night so Nodoka could have the room to herself.
Negi sank to his knees and buried his face in his hands, unfortunately he hadn't put down the bra yet, so he ended up with a face full of lace. Wait, if this is Nodoka's room, I should be right next door to my own room! Negi thought desperately.
Granted, it might be embarrassing for him to run into his room naked in front of Konoka and Asuna, but with luck the two of them would still be asleep and he could at least get some clothing on before they woke up. He had NO idea what he was going to say to Nodoka now. She had confessed her love to him, kissed him, and now apparently bedded him. Negi's overactive imagination kicked in again, as he imagined himself as a father before he was old enough to shave.
Sighing, Negi listened at the door to make sure no one was around before he peeked outside. Taking a deep breath, he rushed outside and bolted to the next door down the hall and tried to open it… locked. If this is Asuna or Konoka's idea of a joke, I'm going too… The nude English teacher thought bitterly as he heard voices coming down the hall.
Negi pounded on the door as the voices got closer. Finally, with a faint click, the door opened and Negi charged inside.
"Thanks again for putting Negi-sensei up in your room Mei." Asuna said as she walked down the hall beside the lower classman carrying Negi's fresh clothes.
"It's no problem. I hope he didn't mind sharing the bed with my little brother." Sakura Mei said as she walked next to her. "It's the least I could do for Nodoka giving me her old tests, they'll be a great help in the coming year."
"So why was your brother staying with you anyway?" Baka Red asked conversationally.
"Mom and Dad wanted some 'alone time'." Mei said blushing. "He left early this morning to go home. So, why didn't you just carry him back to your room last night?"
Asuna chuckled a little to herself. "Konoka had something she wanted to do."
"Oh, what could she be doing that would keep Negi out of the room all night?" Sakura Mei asked innocently.
Setsuna, if I had to make a guess. "Oh, she and Setsuna had something they needed to get done for the headmaster. I don't really know what all they were doing." Nor do I want to… "I had to go stay next door with Yue, Nodoka, and Haruna."
"Oh well, by the way I'm sorry Aniki threw up all over sensei." Sakura said with embarrassment.
Asuna blushed despite herself. "It's no problem; I washed his clothes early this morning. And uh, look, Sakura-san we might want to keep that just between us. If anyone finds out that I undressed sensei, they're going to make a big deal out of it."
"No problem, my lips are sealed. Besides, it's not like anybody's going to know…"
A sudden scream startled the two girls out of their conversation as they walked towards the room where Negi was supposed to be sleeping. Asuna slapped her forehead and groaned. "Actually, it sounds like somebody just found out."
A/N: And THAT, little children, is how Negi got fired…
