A/N – Thank you all for the reviews! Ack! I am horrible with updating, I apologize once more. And I'm sorry, I spelled Kyonkichi wrong. But I ask for your forgiveness, as I'm sure you all are forgiving people… Right? ;;

Uh-Oh

Yuki anticipated Monday, and in fact woke up earlier than the occasion warranted. This surprised Honda-san, who was doing laundry, and hadn't made breakfast yet.

"Um – ah – would you like me to whip up something fast for you, Yuki-kun?" she said, panicking, nearly dropping her basket of freshly folded laundry in anxiousness.

"No, no, that's alright," Yuki-kun chuckled, and grabbed the basket before it tumbled to the floor. "I just wanted to go to school early, that's all."

Tohru was relieved to see that Yuki-kun seemed in a better mood than before, and smiled to herself.

"That's nice," she beamed up at him. "So no student council meeting today?"

Yuki frowned in thought. "No. Actually, I was hoping I could see my friend, who seemed ill last time we talked, and I wanted to see if she was okay."

"Uwah!" That surprised Tohru, and she nearly dropped the laundry down again – this time out of concern. "That's horrible!" she said anxiously. Yuki took the basket out of her hands, "Maybe I'd better take that," he laughed.

"Oh, er, right," she laughed too, but then frowned. "Is she alright?"

"I don't know," Yuki said with some trepidation.

Yuki got to school early, and waited in the student council office, where the members sometimes came in the morning. What was Machi's first class? He angrily realized that he didn't know. But then again, why should he know? It's not like they were in the same grade, or had the same classes.

He glanced at his watch, anticipating. Where was she?

Machi heard the alarm go off. She hit the snooze, and rolled over on her bed…

It buzzed again. She muttered, and reached for it once more…

The third time, she angrily opened one eye, "UWAH!" she scrambled out of bed, and looked for her uniform.

Yuki finally decided to wait in front of the school's main entrance. Sure, there were many ways people came to school, and he was taking his chances by waiting there – she might come from the back of the other side of the school – but he was running out of ideas.

People walking pasted him saw the concerned look on the class Prince's face. They whispered amongst themselves: what was wrong with Prince Yuki?

Machi dashed out of her house – almost forgetting to lock the front door on her way out, and cut across nieghboring lawns, panting, gasping for breath.

Did she have her backpack? Yes, it was on her shoulders. Did she have her homework? Machi wasn't sure, but she sincerely hoped so.

"Machi!"

A voice made her skid to a grinding halt. She nearly fell flat on her face.

"Are you all right, Machi?"

She looked left and right, searching for where the voice came from. Finally, she glanced up to see Yuki looking down at her, with a deeply concerned look on his face.

She blushed, and said, "What are you doing? We're going to be late!" She dashed through the hallway, and hurried along.

Yuki gave a small laugh.

Machi whirled around, surprised – unsure to be angry with indignation, or blink with bewilderment. Yuki saw the look on Machi's face, and didn't want to laugh again, so he said with a strangled voice, "Let's get to class."

"What's so funny?" she asked grumpily, dashing through the corridors with him. Why was he laughing at a moment like this?

"Nothing is funny," he assured her. "I feel relieved, that's all."

"Well feel relieved some other time," she uttered, and then turned the corner. She stopped hesitantly at the second doorway. "See you later, Yuki," she said after some deliberation, and disappeared inside the classroom.

Yuki smiled and waved, and then ran to his own class.

"Yun-Yun is happy today," Kakeru sang loudly when they entered the student council room after school.

Yuki, as the song had been grating on his nerves for the past hour or so, was actually not "happy" but rather now aggravated. "WOULD YOU GIVE IT A REST?" he shouted.

"The song bothering you, Yuki?" he asked in astonishment, as though realizing this for the first time.

"YES," Yuki replied, gnashing his teeth together.

"Oh," he said shortly. "Okay," Kakeru gave him the thumb's up, but before Yuki could exhale with relief, Kakeru began with, "Yuki doesn't like the songs I sing!"

"Augh! Would you stop with that racket!" Yuki covered his ears, shooting daggers in Manabe's direction with his eyes. Alas, much to Yuki's dismay, oblivious Kakeru was coming in for the chorus, "And Yuuuuki-kuuun won't – YAUGH!"

Kakeru fell to the floor in pain rubbing his head, while Kimi put her bamboo stick away. "Kimi can't concentrate on the decorations with Kakeru's singing," she said.

Machi, Yuki, and Kakeru – laying on the ground - looked up to see what Kimi did to the student council office. "What the he-?" Naohito appeared at that moment. "GAH! WHAT DID YOU DO, WOMAN!" he demanded.

Kimi put her finger to her dimple cutely, and winked, "I made it all pretty for graduation, of course."

They looked like they entered a traditional Japanese hot spring.

Kimi twirled around and finished putting the last stick of bamboo on the bamboo-wall she made around each of the desks.

"Since Kimi and Manabe couldn't agree on fireworks or flowers, Kimi made it into a hot-springs theme."

There was a steam-making machine in the middle of the room, and flowers, rocks, and potted plants around.

Yuki started feeling hot, even in his school's summer uniform.

"Kimi, how much did you spend on all of this?" Yuki had to ask, chokingly.

"Not to worry!" she smile-shrugged. "Kimi used the money from the student council's treasury!"

"You – you used the money from the school treasury?" Yuki asked a bit shakily, not sure if he heard correctly.

"Mm-hmm," she smiled.

Just then Machi walked into the room. Everyone turned to look at her.

"What?" she asked -she didn't know what was going on.
