"So Yusuke what did you get on your test?" Allie was egger to see how Yusuke had done with her help.

"Oh not to bad…I got a 89!" he waved hi paper around in the air, it was the easiest way to show how exited her was, but he wished he could hug her. Then again he always felt like doing that. "Thanks for helping me."

"Oh no big." Allie said. But the truth was she had really liked being with him.

"Wrong, very big, you really helped." He smiled.

Allie blushed a little and turned away to see the disgusted face on Tsumi. "that is absolutely disgusting!" she scoffed.

"You are just jealous because….well your just jealous!" Allie shot back. Tsumi cocked an eyebrow and looked back down at her book. It was really boring, about worm insides or something; she was reading but the information wasn't going to her brain, she was to busy with other things. Her training basically trumped Allie's social life, and she was improving rapidly now, her over all fighting skills were improving, and she was getting much faster reflexes. Allie was lucky she decided, she was lucky she had started training so much earlier than Tsumi, she was already passed the stage where she was impressed by her abilities. Tsumi remembered when Allie had first gone into the 'im improving more than you' stage, she had been very full of herself, but Tsumi now understood, a little.

She looked back over at her friend too see her still blushing. "get a grip." The words came out much harsher then Tsumi had expected and Allie recoiled, her eyes opened with a mixed look of fear and surprise.

"Well you don't have to be so bitchy about it!" Allie hated when she was mad but Tsumi was totally ruining her moment.

Tsumi turned away, Allie's words came like a slap in the face, she had injured something deep inside Allie, a sort of mortal pride. The bell rang and Tsumi gathered her things quickly passing Allie and Yusuke as quickly as possible. She decided to skip math, she absolutely hated that she had every class with Allie, and she hated her damn perfect grades. She pulled her book bag across her shoulder and walked out into the crisp November air. She was walking along down a street when something dropped from a tree and then disappeared.

She looked around, finding it strange that she could not locate the source; she was normally very good at doing that. Suddenly, someone taped her on the shoulder. "Tsumi did you just see that?"

"What are you doing here?" she shoved the words at Allie.

"Well you love math, and I thought it was weird that you weren't in class so…"

"You came to find me? That's nice Allie but I don't need help!"

"I didn't think you did! I was just worried that… I don't know you were, upset somehow by me."

"Well I'm not so leave me alone!" Allie looked around, she had a strange feeling like someone was watching."

"Did you see what it was that dropped from the tree?" she asked.

"No."

"Do you feel weird?"

"I told you I don't need help!"

"I didn't mean it that way! I meant do you feel someone watching us?"

"Yeah sort of why?" Allie looked at Tsumi like she was crazy.

"why? Why would I care that we feel like someone is watching us?" she rolled her eyes. "well if we both think someone's watching us, most likely they are!" Allie looked around and not finding the source of her dilemma she returned
