Daisuke Niwa sat stiffly on his chair. The sensei was teaching English Literature in front of the class. The auburn hair knew that he should be paying full attention to whatever the boring sensei was babbling about but he couldn't. Being an obedient student he was, with every sensei developing a great sense of fondness towards him, Daisuke had never ever not pay attention in class. Until today. He could feel a pair of ice-blue eyes boring a hole through his back. And he knew who it was. It was Satoshi Hiwatari, the youngest chief-in-command for the police unit force in charge of capturing Dark, Daisuke's hostee. Unknown to anyone except his okaasan and ojichan, Daisuke is actually the tamer for the great phantom thief that existed in legend, Dark Mousy. But in a sense of reality - minus the clumsiness - of Daisuke, the somewhat knew that Hiwatari-kun is suspecting something. Take for instance, the time when he was tricked by Saehara, his classmate the so-called super reporter to help the sensei to run an errand in the school lab. When he reached the lab, the card key wasn't working and he had used his ability to release the super high-tech lock within 5 seconds out of choice, Hiwatari-kun had seen the whole process. That of course, had made Daisuke even more aware in front of the blue-haired detective. And it seems that every time whenever there is no one around except for the both of them, Hiwatari-kun tends to talk a lot about Dark in front of him. The thought of it made the back of Daisuke's hair stand. Scary and emotionless - the perfect words to describe Satoshi Hiwatari.

"Niwa!"

"Eh?"

Daisuke glanced up to see his sensei glaring down at him. Tapping his foot impatiently with his arms crossed against his broad chest, the most feared teacher among the students looked at the ruby eyed boy. Daisuke sweat dropped. Darn. "Umm..."

"The usage of the conjunction 'although' is?" repeated the sensei for the umpteen time while staring at the boy. "Well?"

Daisuke looked around him for the sign of help. But none of his classmates came to his rescue. Not even Risa, the girl that he had a crush on since god knows when. Daisuke sighed softly in disappointment. He is bound to be damned. With fear in his eyes, the auburn-haired try to meet the fierce sensei's eye. His palm is sweating profusely and he felt a cold shiver ran down his spine.

"Well Niwa-kun? I'm waiting for the answer..." growled the sensei. Daisuke could feel heat creeping up to his face. His face must be as red as a tomato by now. Stupid. I couldn't even answer to such a simple question. Then suddenly he thought of someone. His hostee - Dark whom was sleeping at the back of his head. Surely he'd know the answer right? Dark! Dark! Help me in here...I need your help! Silence. Dark!! Silence once again. Okay, sometimes even hostees have not the slightest idea of what conjunction means. Daisuke smiled weakly at the sensei. Just when he was about to tell the sensei that he don't know the answer to that question, the ice prince stood up. Satoshi gave Daisuke a look and looked at the sensei.

"If you don't mind sensei, I would like to answer to that question on behalf of Niwa-kun. I think it'll be better than us sitting here wasting my precious time to wait for him to answer it right?" said Satoshi in a monotone voice. The sensei, a bit taken back by what his bright student was saying, could only nod in agreement. Satoshi smiled secretly. Daisuke was staring at the blue-haired boy unblinking. He couldn't believe that he was saved by a person whom barely talks to him once a week. A warm feeling pierced though his heart as he watched how the detective answers the question with such confidence.

"The word 'although' is used to show concession. For example, 'Although the job of catching thieves was tough, he never complained'. Is it correct sensei?" asked Satoshi eyeing the sensei coldly. Only the ice-prince could produce a look that cold that could make the fierce sensei slightly afraid. "Is that right sensei?" asked the boy again when the sensei didn't answer, a bit pressuring this time.

"Un. Yes, that's absolutely correct Hiwatari-kun. You may sit down now," instruct the sensei with the back of his hand sweating. Then he turns to the ruby-eyed boy as calm as he could and looked at him. "Learn from Hiwatari next time, Niwa. Do you get me?"

Daisuke could only nod weakly. But deep down inside, the idea of consulting Hiwatari-kun was extremely scary. I mean, who would ask help from a walking ice block? He quickly sits down when the sensei instruct him to. Glancing back to where Satoshi was sitting, Daisuke saw the boy staring at him. The auburn-haired quickly mouth a silent thank you and smiled gratefully to the blue-haired. Satoshi, seeing that Daisuke was trying to say thank you to him, could only nod politely. That was one of his good points - always being polite in whatever mood he is in. Not that he wanted to but in order to avoid conflict, he had to. That was what working in the police force had taught him.

Then suddenly, the sensei shouted merrily as if he had just won a lottery. All the students looked at him as if he had just grown another head on his shoulder. They started talking among themselves as it if a rare chance to see another side of the fierce sensei. The sensei hit his wooden long ruler against the blackboard to signal the student to keep quiet. Just as soon as the chaos died down, the sensei looked at them and smiled. Baring his crooked teeth.

"I've just thought of something magnificent!" he announced to the whole class. Everyone looked at him questioningly, wondering what the heck he's talking about. "Since I realize that many of you are weak in English Literature, I've decided to start a new project. Each one of you is to be paired up with a partner that is good in English and you'll need to write ten essays with the help of your partner."

Immediately, the class began to make noises. Then Saehara raised up his hand and asked, "Do we get to choose our own partner?"

The sensei pointed his finger at the junior reporter and replied, "Good question. But sorry kids, I'll be the one to choose your partners for you." Upon hearing that statement, the whole class became a zoo. Daisuke looked around him and saw girls squealing and boys shouting. The only person who sits silently at the back of the class is Satoshi Hiwatari. The blue-eyed genius was playing with his pen and Daisuke couldn't help but realize that Hiwatari-kun do look like an angel. Sitting there peacefully being shone by the ray of sunlight with the gentle wind tousling his blue hair, Satoshi looked so innocent and beautiful. Wait a sec there, beautiful? Where did that come from? Then suddenly Satoshi looked up from his pen and their eyes met. Ruby meets sapphire. Fire meets ice. Daisuke was the one who broke the eye contact first and he immediately looked away. Blushing furiously, he looked out of the window, afraid that Satoshi would saw him red-faced. Damn it. What was I thinking? Beautiful? Mentally, Daisuke kicked himself. Then suddenly his attention was grabbed by the sensei in front.

"Quiet down people! I'm going to give you your partner now. When I call out you and your partner's name, please come up to the front to get you ten essays' title". Everyone groaned. Daisuke slumped back into his chair. Then suddenly Risa called him. Daisuke blushed when he saw the pretty girl.

"I hope I get you as my partner Niwa-kun. You're the only one I can think of that could be a good partner. I don't want Riku. She's too serious in this," smiled the brown-haired girl. Daisuke blush even more. Now. She is beautiful. With that thought, Daisuke glance to the back where Satoshi was sitting. The detective was staring at him with an expression that Daisuke couldn't quite make out what it is. But that was just for a while, then the cold mask came back to Satoshi's face and he turned away. No matter how, Daisuke couldn't take his ruby eyes off the angelic profile of Hiwatari Satoshi.

"Niwa-kun? Niwa-kun! Mou..." pouted Risa.

"Nani?"

"Didn't you hear? You're not my partner! I got Saehara..." said the younger Harada twin. Daisuke looked at her.

"Risa Harada! Please come up here to get your titles...Saehara is waiting for you!" demanded the sensei.

"C'mon Harada-imouto...don't be shy," teased Saehara grinning while holding on a stack of papers. Probably the titles that sensei had just given to him and Risa. Daisuke felt a pang of jealousy. Why didn't he get Risa but Saehara did? He looked at the face expression of Risa. She looked disappointed. Daisuke almost felt guilty. Well, almost anyway because right after that, the sensei called out his name.

"Niwa Daisuke!"

The auburn-haired got up from his seat and walked towards the sensei, wondering who his partner might be. Almost everyone in class had been called out. Wait. Not almost, correct that. Everyone in the class had been called out except for the boy sitting at the back of the class silently. Just when he was about the reach the sensei's side, his partner's name was called out.
"Hiwatari Satoshi...you'll be Niwa's partner for this project," alleged the sensei smiling at Daisuke. The ruby-eyed was speechless for a moment. "Ne Niwa? Take this opportunity to brush up your English!" continued the sensei while patting Daisuke's back. Slowly he looked at the approaching blue-eyed detective and tried his best to give out a smile. Satoshi was looking at him with a different look, something that makes Daisuke's heart jump a beat and blush furiously.

"It'll be a pleasure working with you," whispered Satoshi into the boy's ear. So near that he could feel the detective breathing on him. Daisuke could do nothing but gave a mere nod.


1) Tamer - Winghost (Daisuke is currently the tamer for Dark)

2) Sensei - Teacher

3) Okaasan - Mother

4) Ojichan- A not so formal way of saying grandfather.

5) Imouto - Younger sister. In the anime, Risa is always referred to being the younger one among the Harada twins. So their classmates differentiate them by calling Risa Harada-imouto.
