A/n: Hello, how are you? Hmm, well review! Want to see what you guys think!
One note…um, I was going to make it more American like, with football and cheerleaders…but it's in Yokohama so, whatever. It's Japanese like…though I wanted it to be different…(then it would be un-realistic! )

Chapter Two
As arriving to school and parking near a shade, Nel was completely lost. Maybe she forgot her notes, but in a matter of time she would remember completely.
"Nelly jelly, it's time to get out and go to school!" Clair remarked and smiled, looking at Nel. Nel glared.
"You know Clair… I would really appreciate if you didn't call me that…" Nel opened the door of the car and patted herself around.
"Uh huh, but then again…" Clair locked the door to her car and started to walk on to campus grounds where all the other students were. Nel brushed her hair with her fingers and followed Clair up stairs to the second floor. They sat at the edge, but it was big enough to keep them from falling.
"You know, Cliff was just looking at you now…" Clair said and Nel eyed her.
"Say that again and….pfft. Stop teasing will you! Mirage is his girlfriend, and he is out of my league!" Nel had to keep her cool, and make sure she knew where this conversation was going.
"Yeah, yeah, say what you want," Clair exclaimed and smiled mischievously, "Nelly jelly."
"Oh, will you quit it!" Nel said and as she made movement, her elbow hit her book bag that was on her side. She didn't know, as she kept shaking Clair, "don't me say it again damn it!"
"Okay, okay! Stop strangling me!" Clair laughed and heard the bell, "better get going, and don't want to be late, especially for that exam."
"Right," Nel said and stood up. She was missing something. Right her, book bag. Where did it go? "Hey, Clair…did you see my bag?"
"Silly! Did you leave it in the car?" Clair asked as she quirked her brow, slightly in an angle.
"No, I just needed a tissue and grabbed one from my book bag on the way up the stairs, so no way." Nel was becoming frantic! All her notes, secrets and dignity were in there! She had to do something!
"Hey! Down here!"
Nel heard a voice, mellow, and distant. She looked over the edge of the place she was sitting on. Nel and Clair's eyes widened, as they quickly raced down the stairs and to the human who had it.
"Oh my, are you okay?" Nel asked and took the book bag and slipped it onto her shoulders.
"No, apparently, I'm not. Your book bag just hit my head. Luckily I didn't get a concussion. What do have in there?"
"Heh heh, stuff," Nel said and looked at Clair, "I'm very sorry...uh?"
"Albel." The student rubbed his head and winced several times.
Nel continued, "Yes, Albel. Is there anything we can do to make it up to you?"
Albel shook his head, not as a "no", but as in thinking something that ought to be good, "Well, meet me at lunch and we'll discuss. See you then."
Nel and Clair eyed each other.
'Lunch? Of all things?'
Nel's brain was fried, and Clair smiled, thinking of what was to come.
--
The brazen sun shined through the rest of the beautiful day, and it was a perfect day for lunch.
"How did you do on the test Clair?" Nel asked, but didn't get a reply. Apparently her friend was dozing off into space, "Clair? Clair Lasbard!"
"Huh! Oh…yes Nel?" Clair was back into reality.
"Why are you dozing off like that? Right now it's time for lunch, and no time for fantasy! Oh, wait a minute. It's Albel isn't it?" Nel started to tease. She had gotten the valued chance.
"Now Nelly jellies, let's not tease." Clair said in a very motherly tone.
"Whatever."
Entering a classroom, and spotting Albel at the side with his girlfriend feeding him lunch, he raised his hand, "over here!"
As Nel and Clair walked over to Albel and his girlfriend, they grabbed two seats on the way there.
"Hi, I'm Welch. Albel has told me a lot of what happened this morning!" This girl had two long pigtails that reached the lower end of her back. She was very cheery, or excited most of the time.
"Well, Nel, I've heard you're a girl with exponential knowledge. I've talked to Welch about it, and she agrees. I'd like you to be my tutor for the next two months."
"What! Albel Nox, you're asking me out of all people to be your tutor? No can do, that's Clair's calling! Clair's calling!" Nel couldn't possibly help out one of the most known guys in school.
"Nel, I can't! I have work!" Clair kicked Nel on her ankle.
"Owe! Okay, I'll tutor you, but it'll take some time to adjust and, this is our last year before college and all. What are your grades?" Nel breathed normally, and tried to sit tight as a clam.
"Average," Albel said casually, "I need at least to passing grades to get to college. I need your help."
"Well, okay. Welch, are you fine with it?" Nel looked at Welch who ate her rice as regularly, and nodded.
"Well, okay. I'll give you my phone number. I must be going now. What class is this?" Nel asked.
"Class 3-A." Welch said, "yours?"
"Class 3-C. See you guys." Clair said and Nel didn't feel good at all.
