Chapter 2:
All right! Another chapter. Isn't that great? Huh, what… I think it is so shut up! Oh, sorry, okay well I hope you like this chapter as well as my friend does. She made me print her out a copy and she taped each page on her ceiling… Yeah, she scares me too.

Chi-Chi nervously stepped onto the bus the next day. She hardly had gotten any sleep while so; she missed a page of homework she was supposed to do. She was angry about it, but she didn't let it bother her. She made a meeting place with Kuwabara the other night, when she called him, and it was in a place she had never even thought of entering.
Her mother was a very cautious person so she usually got on Chi-Chi's case when she went into certain places. The place Kuwabara asked to meet her was the waffle down the street from the school, but it was a hangout for a bunch of people, especially goons. She was always told never to go in there, but it was Kazuma Kuwabara! Give her some slack.
The bus stopped hard, shaking Chi-Chi thoughts up. She rose and waited until every person got off the bus before she did. Finally, she stepped off and slung her backpack on her shoulder. She looked around, then headed towards the waffle house. You could tell which way it was by simply looking on the wooden fence around the school's ground. It was spray painted all over.
Kuwabara looked at his watch, impatiently. He wanted to get out of here before anyone else came. The house was totally empty at the moment. Around the mornings, people were just waking up. The door creaked open slowly and Chi-Chi's hair flew into the room along with herself and she slammed the door closed. Kuwabara stared at her. She was covered in mudballs. Her hair, clothes and face were drenched. "K-Kazuma?" she whispered meekly into the room. "Geez, what happened, Chi-Chi sama?" She turned to his voice and looked at him, sadly, "I just asked where this place was… I even asked politely and they started chasing me…" Kuwabara rose to his feet and walked over to her. She looked up at him and even through all the mud, he could tell she was blushing. "Let's get you washed up for school." He smiled and she looked down.
Chi-Chi gazed over her new clothes. They were the same uniform needed form school and they actually fit! "Kazuma, where did you get these?"
"Oh, this place has everything for accidents like this, no bog deal, promise!" He grinned and Chi-Chi used her wet hair to hide herself from his vision. "Come on, let's go to school now, we're almost late." He said, pushing her to the door and walked closely behind her, but right then, Charlie's gang walked in.
"Oh, hello lil' lady…" He said, looking down upon her. She scrambled back against Kuwabara's chest. He wrapped his arms around her shoulders and looked Charlie strait in the eye. "Move it," he said, very plainly as if he was tired. Charlie took this offensively and went it punch Kuwabara. Kuwabara was preoccupied with Chi-Chi and could raise a fist the block it so, he took it. Right into his nose. Chi-Chi screamed and squeezed from Kuwabara's grip before he fell.
Urimeshi stepped in at that point. He had watched the whole thing from inside and ran to the door to get a good shot at Charlie. Thankfully, he did, right in the neck! Charlie fell to the ground, knocked out. Kuwabara was already on his feet, trying to adjust his noes back into place and there was Chi-Chi, beside him, hugging his arm.
Urimeshi tilted his head at Chi-Chi. 'What does she think she's doing?' he thought, staring blankly at her, but he spoke, "why is she here, Kuwabara?" Instead of Kuwabara's voice, Chi-Chi's answered, "I chose to be. It's not his fault… oh, be careful!" She said, gripping Kuwabara's arm tighter, watching his hands. Urimeshi watched her, fascinated by her feelings towards Kuwabara. There was a loud crack and Chi-Chi gasped a bit at it. Kuwabara released his nose and looked at Urimeshi. "I owe you another one…" Yusuke grinned and laughed a little, "no big, Kuwabara. There was girl involved…" **sweat drop** Kuwabara came up to Urimeshi and looked at him angrily. "And what does that supposed to mean?" Chi-Chi laughed, watching them argue about something as small as that. Her eyes wandered to the wall clock and she screamed.
That snapped Kuwabara and Yusuke out of their fight. "What? What is it?"
"It's almost 8:30! I'm totally late, ugh!" She ran out the door pushing the goons out of her way and running all the way to the school doors.
Urimeshi and Kuwabara stood there, dumbfounded. "I forgot to tell her the clock's an hour ahead…"
Chi-Chi's legs felt as if they were going to fall off when she finally reached the school doors, but they were locked. "Huh? OH NO, I'm too late. Man…" She took the time to look at her watch and found it was only 7:56. She rose an eyebrow and looked at the doors again. She suddenly had a sickening feeling in her stomach that maybe that clock was an hour ahead. Just then, Kuwabara and Urimeshi came jogging up with smiles, "uh sorry, we forgot to tell you, the clock at the house is an hour ahead!" Her mouth dropped.
"I'm going to kill you two!" She fell to her knees, catching her left over breath. Kuwabara came to her left side, Yusuke to her right. "Sorry… we forgot." Chi-Chi thumbed the edge of her book, sadly. "Aw, come on Chi-Chi sama, please forgive me…" Kuwabara said, giving her chibi eyes. She looked at him and smiled. "Okay, I forgive you Kazuma sama." He grinned and folded his hands behind his head and laid down on the steps. Yusuke looked at Chi-Chi the same way and said, "what about me Chi-Chi sama?" She looked at Yusuke and whacked him over the head; "you're pathetic!" She said, half way drowned out in Kuwabara's laughing. She simply moved up a step and let the two fight it out.
The bell rang; she rose with her books and went into the school building.
Kuwabara sat watching the board be written on with white lines spelling out stuff like
x=y 788 and 8+yx*77. He yawned at looked down at his book. Same thing. He closed it and looked at the clock. They still had two hours before lunch. He glanced back at Chi-Chi who was looking intrigued at the board. He cocked an eyebrow at her and turned back around, before the teacher saw him. He reached into his bag and pulled out a notebook. He looked up to the teacher once more then filled to a clean page. On that page he wrote:
Dear Chi-Chi sama,
How do you understand all this crap? It's not even written in English…
-Kazuma
He ripped the page out of the notebook and folded it in half. The teacher looked back and Kuwabara snapped into his normal position. As usual, she had looked over at Yusuke. She eyed the room then continued. He then tossed the paper back to Chi-Chi and waited.
Chi-Chi nearly dropped her pencil at the sudden paper flying at her. She looked around, then opened it and read it with a smile. She took her pencil and carefully wrote back:
Dear Kazuma,
Yes it is! Only, in the English metric system. Do you need help with it? I'd be happy to help it you want!
-Chi-Chi sama
She folded it on its already made line and slid it on the ground to Kuwabara's feet. She saw him pick it up and immediately looked back at the board.
Kuwabara read slowly, over and over again, admiring her neat handwriting. But no sooner than he stopped for the 7th time had he written:
Dear Chi-Chi sama,
PLEASE? I don't even understand what a metric whatever is… When can I come over?
-Kazuma
She smiled as the paper flew back to her. She read it and laughed a little, not catching any attention though. Only Kuwabara blushed at it, knowing from studying her voice. She held it after the teacher had turned around to assign the homework. Kuwabara looked at the clock. Only 5 minutes until the lunch bell rang. 'Man, time sure does fly! Literally,' he looked at the teacher and wrote down his homework.
After everyone had packed his or her bags, Kuwabara turned to look at Chi-Chi. "Chi-Chi sama…" He whispered to her. She looked at him and turned her entire body to gaze at him. "Meet me at the fifth table outside on your right! Okay?" She smiled lightly and mouthed 'okay'.
Soon after she had gathered her food (pizza, coke, and chips for Kazuma) she went to the table he told her to. She blushed as he smiled warmly to her as she approached. "Good, you remembered!" He said, taking the chips off her plate when she sat down. "Thank you," he said, popping the bag open and took a few chips out, throwing them into his mouth. Chi-Chi smiled, "I don't think you'll be able to come to my house to study."
"That's fine! You can come over to mine!" His voice was a bit blurred by his mouth being full, but she smiled. "I don't I'd be able to do that either… How about the old art shop?" He stopped and looked at her, smiling after swallowing all his food. "I like your style!" He said, shaking her hand and laughing. Chi-Chi laughed along with him then started eating her food.
