Ky finished his paper and nudged Kaiko. Whispering, he asked, "Are you done?" "Yes but," she showed him her paper, "I can only write in Japan..." He put his finger against her lips to hush her, "Its alright. Essay, the teacher, knows all sorts of languages." He grabbed her paper and walked to the front to hand them in. Everyone was surprised the new kid was finished. Treista glared but kept working. "Two more minutes class...then turn in your papers." He smiled softly, "No not yet...we have two more classes before then...I have a granola bar in my bag, I'll give that to you after class, ok?" The teacher stands up and walks around picking up all the rest of the papers. He then begins a lecture as Ky writes down notes. He stared at the clock and wrote on the edge of his paper, Kaiko the period ends when the big hand passes the nine. She whispers, "Ok..." Kaiko looks at the clock. The big hand was only on the seven. She sighed. This will take forever. The smell of lunch is so tempting. She decides to listen to the teacher, because everyone else is doing that, all but Treista, she's talking with her friends, glaring at Kaiko every so often. Just barely being able to hear Treista's conversation, listens in. "She thinks she's so cool because she gets to be with Ky. Ya right," her friends snicker. "Did you really not brush your teeth this morning?" one asks. Standing up, Treista yells, "OF COURSE I DID!!!" "Do you have something you want to tell the class Treista?" "No sir." she responds blushing. "Well I suggest you take your seat and pay better attention." she sits embarrassed as ever.

Ky smiles at Treista's embarrassment. He keeps writing and the time clicks by. Finally the bell rings and Ky grabs the granola bar out of his bag. Treista walks over and takes it. "Well Ky! How did you know I was hungry?" Kaiko gets angry and stands up just as Treista sinks her teeth into the yummy frosting covered granola. "You know Treista, that bar has been in my bag for over a month...I don't think it's good anymore." He smiles as he opens a fresh box of granola bars and gives Kaiko two. "Come on Kaiko, we have English next. Treista just stands there in disgust as a few kids linger to snicker at her. Kaiko sticks her tongue out at Treista, and then bites into a granola bar. Mmmm these are good. She thinks. As she follows Ky to English she sees all the other kids getting books and going to their separate classes. When they get to English Kaiko asks, "When is this class over?" even though she is very excited because Treista isn't in this one, or at least hasn't come in the class yet. Ky looks at Kaiko happily. He thinks to himself, She is so much cuter then all the other girls, just then a boy comes over and slams his text book on Ky's desk. "Kyyy," the boy makes a pitiful crying face, "Why do you always get the cute girls stalking you?! Its not fair!" he slams head on top of the book again. "You have to hook me up with one of your many girls before the spring festival!" "Alright Shu...I mean Shawn." Ky looks around...he had promised Shawn he wouldn't let anyone know his nick name...Ky almost let it slip. "This is Kaiko and she is um, well, visiting." "Hi Shu!" she smiled a big smile. "Why did you slam your head on that book?" she asked curiously taking another bite into the granola bar. Smiling as she ate, she quickly perked up surprised. Kaiko stood up and walked over to Shawn and started to smell his hair and shirt. "Do you have a dog? Or live near one? I can smell a..." she smelled him again. "A 3 year, 7 month, and 25 day old German Shepard." Then, satisfied with her answer, she took another bite out of the granola bar. "Oh GOD I can't believe you told her about it! You're not my role model any more!!! KY I HATE YOU!" The boy walked off as the class fell silent. "Kaiko I think you and I need to go apologize to Shawn. Don't call him Shu ok? It's, well...it's not a good thing, ok?" Ky got up and walked toward the door. He had three minutes to make things better. The teacher would be there soon and I he didn't feel like standing outside holding buckets of water. "Hi Shawn...Ky didn't tell me your nick name...I heard it," she looked down at her shoes. "Sorry for blurting it out," she looked at him with sad puppy eyes. "Can you forgive me???" she looked so innocent. "Pleeeeease??? Don't be mad at Ky...its my fault. Pleeeeease?????" She put on her best sad, innocent face.
