Tate is the only person that belongs to me. I'd never be good enough to create the BR characters. Sorry if anyone seems ooc.

Kenji sat quietly at the back of the writing class. There had been an assignment to write a poem about something that was important to you, and some flake was up there reading a poem she wrote about her shoes. Uriko was giggling at something, Kenji figured it was a friend, or the pathetic ness of the flake's poem. He smirked, thinking Uriko would be so angry with him, but it was worth it. That was because he had written a poem about Uriko, and had gotten flowers to hand her to boot. Kenji got before the class, when his time came and began reading for all of the room to hear.


Uriko's jaw had dropped and she was speechless as Kenji made some flowers appear from, what seemed to be, nowhere. After Kenji sat down Uriko recovered herself and growled a little. "Kenji," Uriko grumbled, "I'll get you. Oversized rodent..." Even though she said that she was purring so hard in her heart. She was embarrassed, that was all.


Kenji sat across from Uriko at the lunch table, studying her closely. Uriko seemed to begin feeling a little awkward over how hard he was looking. "Kenji," she said, blushing a little, "What are you thinking about?" "Something is on your mind today," he replied, "and I don't mean the little surprise I gave you in class today...something...serious." "Serious," Uriko asked, "Oh, yeah. Some woman was in my dreams last night...warning me about something."

"Warning you about what," he pushed her to continue. "Clones..." she answered, "but she was a lab pet herself...how can we be sure we can trust her?" "I guess there's no way," Kenji said, with a concerned look and a shrug, "We won't know until something happens..." Uriko sighed and continued eating her lunch. "Well let's hope it doesn't cost us," she muttered. "Don't worry Riko," Kenji whispered while looking her in the eyes and putting a hand on her shoulder, "It'll be fine."

Uriko blushed again and shoved her self further into her outer appearance of busily eating. Ahhhh... she thought if we weren't in school I'd give him such a BIG kiss right now. Damn school's rules on intimate contact! The bell rang sometime later and Uriko shook her head. "Well see ya' later Kenji," she called as they went their separate ways. "Bye Riko," he yelled back over the rushing crowd.


"Darn," Kenji grumbled to himself, "last period and the teacher keeps us behind to do cleaning duty...I hope Uriko doesn't get worried."


Uriko sat on the school's steps, looking a bit fidgety. "What's going on," she wondered out loud, "Kenji's never late...I hope nothing happened to him...maybe I should check the nurse's office." "Wait," said a familiar voice behind her. Uriko turned around to see Kenji standing there, and seemed a little surprised. "How'd you-" "A teacher asked me to do something so I took the back door," he answered, "sorry for being late." "Oh," Uriko replied, "that explains it all."

Then Uriko felt something. It felt odd, and she couldn't put her fingers on it. Something wasn't right. She looked at Kenji for a moment, and saw that look he always gave her when he was studying her, so very closely. "Kenji," she asked, "Do you know something ELSE now?" Kenji's ability to hone in on her thoughts and feelings made her nervous at times like this. Kenji just shook his head and answered, "Sorry I worried you." Then they left together, with Uriko still feeling something was very off.
