1st year – Too Academy – Japanese Ministry of Magic, Division for Magical Education
...
She was almost finished. Just this one last day of OWLs exams left and then she would be done and she could go back to focusing on her basketball and muggle education again. At least for a while.
She nodded to the others as she walked into the room they used for the exams and sat down at her desk. She hadn't really talked much with the others because she didn't know what to say and she didn't want to lie too much. Lie because she was taking the exams under a fake name and hiding the fact that she was Mackenzie Potter.
She had barely seen Professor Sato since the OWLs started four days ago, she had barely seen anyone. She had told Harasawa that she would be unavailable for basketball practice for five days because of personal reasons and since it was the summer holiday and he knew how hard she worked he had agreed to let her have the time off.
She was really grateful that he had been so agreeable because she wasn't sure how she would have survived these brutal exams and have basketball practice at the same time. It was too much.
But she missed Daiki. She missed seeing him and talking with him, she wondered how he was spending his days and if he was thinking about her at all. She sighed.
"You sigh a lot," Kohaku commented.
Mac startled and looked at him.
"So what?" she asked.
"Nothing," he smiled. "Just thought you should know."
Mac snorted and he grinned as he pulled up a chair to her desk and looked at her.
"So, I am really curious about you," he said.
Mac felt her stomach sink but she kept her face blank as she looked back at him.
"I can't see why," she said.
He laughed and tilted his head to the side.
"I think you can," he said but he didn't press any more as he got up and walked back to his desk leaving Mac alone with her thoughts. She really didn't want to get any attention.
The examiner came into the room and with a sharp flick of his wand the papers started to fly out and one by one land on the desks. Mac swallowed. Okay, so the last one. Just get through the theoretical exam in Defence Against the Dark Arts and then the Practical one after lunch and she was done.
Right.
...
"Very good," the old man in front of her said as she performed a strong stunner to the dummy placed at the middle of the floor. She had already shown a various scope of jinxes, spells and counter-jinxes and everything that could pop into the examiners head it would seem.
Luckily Mac's education had been more on the practical side of Defence, and even some of her Martial Arts training had given her an upper hand in her practice duel against one of the younger examiners.
"…if there is anything else you want to show before we call it a day then now is the time to do it," the old man said.
Mac had talked with Professor Sato before the exams started and he had said to save the Patronus to the end and the Defence Practical exam. So she had and it seemed like now was the time to show it off. She inhaled and focused on her friends and the happiness they gave her and how safe she felt with them.
"Expecto Patronum," she called out.
The silvery and elegant panther shot out of her wand and started to run through the room with elegant strides until it returned to her and stopped in front of the stunned examiner who blinked rapidly as he stared at the panther.
He seemed to shake himself out of whatever stupor he had been in and circled the panther until it dissolved.
"You can make a Patronus?" he asked despite having witnessed it.
"Yes, sir," Mac said. "I just recently managed to make a corporeal one, but I have made the misty Patronus for a while."
The man looked at her and smiled slightly.
"Very good," he said. "Who's your professor, Kagami-san?"
"Professor Sato Taichi, sir," Mac answered.
"Ah, Sato," the man nodded. "He seems to have found a very talented student this time around."
Mac wasn't sure what to say to that or if it was even meant for her to hear as it was said in a way that had her feeling that he was talking to himself.
"Very well," the man said. "That's it. You are dismissed."
"Thank you, sir," Mac bowed politely and left the room.
...
Mac was exhausted. She just wanted the day to end so she could go home and sleep…or maybe see Daiki. She really wanted to see Daiki. She smiled almost dreamingly thinking about seeing Daiki again and suddenly she felt really impatient for the day to be over. She was in a room with the others and they were waiting for someone to show up to get them, probably their professors.
To get the time to go faster she pulled out her sketchpad and started to draw. She felt herself start to relax a little as her pen flew over the page as she drew and the same bubble surrounded her making her unaware of the curious looks she received.
"I wonder what's she's doing," Kohaku commented curiously as he looked over at the strange girl that had been taking some of the exams with them. "And why she wasn't there when we took the Astronomy exam yesterday."
"Who cares?" Andrina grumbled from behind him and scowled at Mac before glancing over at Kohaku.
"I do," he shrugged.
"She seems to be pretty private," Gregor said as he sat down next to Kohaku. "She barely answers any questions."
"It could be because of the exams and that she has enough to keep the focus on that," Natsuko suggested. "And Kohaku you shouldn't stare."
"Who are you? My mum?" Kohaku grumbled but looked away from Mac.
"I just can't understand why we haven't seen her before…" Kohaku frowned. "We all have been doing this home school thing since we were 11 and have met at least twice every semester…"
"And more since our professors like to give us the opportunity to study together and all that social stuff," Luc grumbled. "Annoying."
"Stop talking like that, Luc," Natsuko scolded. "You know you like us!"
"Hmph," he scoffed but smiled slightly.
"I think there's something strange going on," Gregor said importantly. "Have you noticed how jumpy she is sometimes?"
"Yeah," Kohaku nodded. "Do you think she'd come to our celebration dinner? You know the one we're thinking about having this weekend to celebrate that we're done with the OWLs?"
"Oh come on," Andrina said. "Don't you have anything better to talk about than her?"
The others turned to look at Andrina who folded her arms over her chest as she stared back at them with a stubborn tilt to her head.
"What? All you have talked about lately is her and wondering who she is and why she hasn't been at our study sessions… it's tiresome!" Andrina snapped.
"Don't be jealous just because you're not the centre of attention anymore," Kohaku huffed and looked away from her. He missed the hurt look on her face as he did so, though. "I am just curious."
"Whatever," Andrina said. "Then go and ask her…"
Kohaku looked back at her and smiled. "I'll do that then."
...
"Nice drawing," Kohaku said as he got closer to Mac and saw the picture she was drawing. It was very good, he hadn't thought it would be much but the detailed of the little fox playing with a butterfly was really good.
She startled and looked up quickly before she quickly closed the sketchpad as she stared up at him.
"Oh…um…thanks," she said.
"You didn't have to close it," Kohaku said as he sat down at the edge of the desk next to her. "It was a good drawing."
"I don't like showing other people what I draw," Mac said quietly. "At least not until it's done."
Kohaku shrugged.
"So, how did your OWLs go today?" he asked.
"It went alright, I think," Mac said. "Defence is the easiest subject to I think I did well."
"Easy?" Kohaku blinked at her. "You think it's easy?"
"Maybe it was the wrong word," Mac frowned. "But it's my best subject so I found it easier than the other subjects. I like Defence."
Kohaku stared at her.
"Well, then maybe you should be tutoring me in it," he said. "Because I'm sure I failed."
Mac wasn't sure what to say to that so she remained silent.
"Well," Kohaku said when it became clear she wasn't going to say anything. "We're having a celebration dinner of sorts this weekend and I was wondering if you wanted to join us?"
"A dinner?" Mac asked.
"Yeah, you know," he smiled more relaxed now, "to celebrate getting through the OWLs with our lives intact and only have two more years of studying for our NEWTs."
"Right," Mac said. "Well, I'm sorry but I can't."
"Eh? Why not?" Kohaku asked his smile dropping.
"I have plans," Mac said. "I'm sorry."
"Well, if you really can't…" Kohaku frowned. "I really had hoped…"
Mac felt uncomfortable. Well, it wasn't just an excuse to get out of it. She really couldn't this weekend because she had a training camp with her team coming up. But it wasn't like she could say yes anyway. They didn't know who she was so she couldn't go and meet them. She wasn't going to go and hide behind the name Kagami forever and if she went she was bound to slip and reveal herself.
It was difficult enough now to keep her scar covered and not push her hair out of her face like she normally did. She had stopped herself from doing it more time than she could count during these exams.
"I'm sorry," she said again.
He nodded and smiled slightly again.
"Well, if you change your mind," he said and held out a small piece of paper and she took it. It had a phone number written on it.
"I know that not all wizards, or witches for that matter, have phones," he said misreading her expression. "But I always thought it is a useful device. I actually have made several of my friends get one… it's so much easier to get in touch with people like that, right?"
He grinned again.
"Are you going on about your phones again, Kohaku?" Gregor joined them. "Ignore him, Kagami-san. He is always going on about it…"
"Oi!" Kohaku frowned. "I'll have you know…!"
"Oh, Kohaku…" Natsuko sighed as she too joined them and Luc and Andrina were behind them both looked at her with a disinterested look and Mac wondered why they even came over if they didn't care.
"So, did Kohaku ask you to join us?" Gregor asked looking at her.
"She says she can't," Kohaku grumbled still upset at his love for phones had been interrupted. Mac almost felt bad for him.
"I have something planned," Mac said and luckily it was true. It was time that she focused on the basketball team again and that they really started to work for the Winter Cup.
"Can't you make time?" Andrina asked even though it looked like she didn't want to. "Kohaku really wants you to come."
Kohaku glared at her and flushed but Mac just blinked and wondered why. It wasn't like she knew him or them, really…
"I'm sorry," she said again. "But I really can't."
"Oh, boyfriend plans?" Andrina asked.
"Kind of," Mac shrugged. Daiki was involved in her plans so it wasn't a lie.
"You have a boyfriend?" Natsuko asked and Mac suddenly felt like she was missing something because Kohaku had stilled and looked like someone had taken his puppy or something, and Andrina looked more closely at her and was that hope in her eyes? Natsuko tried to look unbothered but Mac could tell she was curious and worried? But why?
Shaking herself out of her observations she nodded.
"Yes, I do," Mac said.
"Oh," Natsuko said and why did she glance over at Kohaku like that?
Mac just smiled and shrugged as the door opened and she saw Professor Sato coming inside with a group of what Mac guessed to be the other's professors.
"Kagami," Professor Sato called and she pushed her sketchpad back into her bag and got up.
"Sorry, I have to go," she said.
"Alright, I guess we'll see you tomorrow?" Kohaku said smiling a little again now even if it wasn't as bright as before.
"Um, no," Mac said. "I'm done today. Good luck!"
They stared at her as she walked over to the older man who gave her a searching look before he nodded. She was done?
"She's done?" Natsuko asked. "Oh, lucky…"
...
"I really hate to have to hide like this," Mac said when she walked with Professor Sato down the hall.
"I know, but if you don't want it to spread that you're taking the OWLs in Japan then this is the way we have to do it," Professor Sato said.
"I know," Mac sighed, "but it's…it's difficult when I meet teens my age and they have magic and seems okay, actually, and I can't really talk to them because I can't be honest and I have to watch what I say…"
Professor Sato looked at her for a moment and nodded.
"And what are the mandatory seminars and test they keep talking about?" Mac asked curiously. "I had no idea what to say when they asked why I haven't been to any of them…"
"I should have thought to mention it to you," Professor Sato said. "The Magical Education Department made a decision about ten years ago to have mandatory seminars and test for everyone that decided to take the magical education by being home schooled. It is a way to control the quality of the education and control that the progress is right and that no one falls behind. It's not many countries outside of Japan who does this, but the level of the home school students have increased significantly since the decision was made."
"But…" Mac frowned.
"But you have been a different case," Professor Sato said and glanced at her. "Since you started much later than normal you have had a different approach, I don't think you really understand just how incredible it is that you're taking your OWLs now, Potter-san. You have only studied magic for two and a half year, and already you have taken your OWLs with students the same age as you that started when they were 11. That is amazing."
Mac looked down embarrassed but also pleased.
"And then there's the fact that you are you," Professor Sato continued and she glanced up at him again. "In order to protect you from being found we knew you couldn't be in the same groups. Talk would spread and word about you being here would eventually reach England."
"I see," Mac nodded. "Thank you."
...
Too Academy
...
"Kenzie," Daiki smiled when he opened the door and found her outside. He hadn't seen her in what felt like forever, but honestly wasn't more than five days, and he had missed her.
"Hey, Daiki," Mac smiled a little tiredly.
"Come inside," he said and reached out to drag her in and closed the door behind her. She looked exhausted, he thought as he looked at her more closely. Her hair was kind of a mess, well it always was kind of a mess, and she was a little pale and her eyes had that glassy look that told him that she was tired and ready to sleep any minute now.
"Thanks," she smiled at him.
"Did you just return from your exam?" he asked.
"Yeah," she yawned. "I just finished and Professor Sato dropped me off here when I said I wanted to see you before…before going…ho-home."
He smiled slightly as she yawned again through her explanation.
"You're practically asleep on your feet," he said.
"Am not," she protested and then yawned.
He chuckled and she pouted at him.
"Come on," he said.
He led her to the sofa and gently pushed her down so she was seated before he went to the kitchen and heated up some of the dinner that his mother had left for him. Luckily it was enough for two.
He heard her move around on the couch a little, but as he glanced into the living room he was pleased to see that she still was on the couch. He smiled again as he turned back to the food and found some soda for them to drink.
He walked into the living room again with the food and couldn't help but smile as he saw her struggling to keep her eyes open. She had pushed her hair back and just a few strands had managed to escape and fell into her face, her glasses were slightly askew in an adorable kind of way. He wondered if he would find anything about her adorable. Probably because he wasn't sure how many others would think that a pair of glasses made their girlfriend looking adorable…
"Are you going to stare at me or give me the food?" she mumbled and opened her eyes more to look at him.
"Hm…well, since you say it like that I guess I should give you your food," Daiki said.
Mac smiled and nodded.
"Smart boy," she said. "I'm starving. I don't know what they do at those exams but it's like they magically take away all of your appetite and food just taste terrible…"
Daiki snorted, "I think that's just nerves."
"Hm. Maybe." Mac allowed.
...
Daiki felt like holding his breath and tried his best to stay still and not move. He was lying on the sofa and Mac was half on top of him and her head was resting against his chest and he could feel her breasts pressed against him and he couldn't help but wonder and he felt warm all over. It wasn't like it was the first time they had been in this position, but now all he could think about was her body, warm and soft, was so close…
Think about something else, anything… he tried but he kept returning to Mac who was close and there. He sighed.
His parents were out with Shiro and Sayuri for the night and wouldn't be home for another couple of hours. He looked down at Mac who slept on and he smiled slightly as he saw her nose crinkle slightly in her sleep.
She was exhausted and he wished there was something he could do to help her. But with magic stuff he was useless and he could only watch as she pushed herself through studying, tests and now exams all the while trying to stay on top of her other schooling and basketball.
Was he selfish?
Should he have encouraged her to go to a magic school instead? That way she wouldn't be so tired all the time and maybe…maybe she would have been happier. He frowned as the thought popped up in his head. It wasn't the first time he had thought that, but normally he just pushed it away and didn't dwell on it. Right now, however, he couldn't do that…
He had not wanted her to quit Teiko, to leave him. He had held on and she had stayed because he didn't want her to go. He knew that he was the main reason for why she stayed and chose the Time-Turner and doing both magic studies and regular school and basketball. Of course, he knew she also didn't want to leave the others but he couldn't shake the feeling that said that if he had told her to go to magic school then she would have…
He was unsure how long he lay back like that before Mac moved and the hand that was holding his shirt tightened slightly. He glanced down at her and found her green eyes looking back up at him a little unclearly since he had taken her glasses and put them on the table when she fell asleep.
"Is something wrong, Daiki?" she asked.
How could she be so attuned to him and instantly know when he was upset about something? He tightened his hold on her and she adjusted her position a little but didn't move too much, only her head tilted more up so she could look up at him.
"It's nothing," he said.
"Then why do you look upset?" she frowned.
She used her free hand and reached up so she could trace his face with her palm and stopped as she reached his cheek. He leaned into the touch.
"I…would you have been happier if you had gone to a magic school?" Daiki asked. "You wouldn't need to push yourself so hard then, you're exhausted and it's not the first time that you…"
"Daiki," she interrupted. "I never regretted staying at Teiko with you and the others. I admit that there was a moment during the exams when I saw some of the others taking it and saw how they talked and interacted that I wondered what it would have been like to study magic with other kids my age… but I never would have wanted to give up what I have either, so…If I had to choose again I would make the same choice. Easy."
She smiled up at him and he couldn't help but smile back even if he still felt a little unsure. But he didn't push it because he was selfish and he didn't want to dwell on her not being there and he was not good at putting words to what he felt or thought anyway and this would be a conversation that needed that.
He huffed and she chuckled making him look down at her. She was looking up at him and his throat suddenly felt dry and his body tensed as he was lost in her green eyes. She was staring up at him and looked so trusting and pretty.
Before he could stop himself he leaned down and kissed her and somehow managed to pull her up closer to him and she followed without complaint as she returned his kiss. He felt her weight on top of him and her warmth through his clothes as he kissed her deeply and moaned slightly as he did. He didn't even have it in him to be embarrassed by the sound that escaped.
Without breaking the kiss he managed to flip their positions so that she was lying on her back and he was over her. He broke free from her mouth, her swollen lips, and stared down at her for a long moment and met her dazed eyes and took in the flushed cheeks and slightly parted lips.
He leaned down again and pressed another light kiss to her lips before he pressed kisses down her chin and jaw and finally to her neck. He could hear her breathing hard and felt how she pressed closer and he felt excited and lost in the sensation of pleasure as he kissed her neck and nibbled on the skin there. It was so soft…
Mac gasped lightly as he kissed her and she could barely think past the fact that he was kissing her and she liked it. She liked it a lot. She could feel his hands on her waist, her stomach above her shirt and she wished…she wondered what his hands would feel like on her skin…
She wondered what his skin would feel like… her hands had been around his neck but now they moved down his back and chest and even through his shirt she could feel the muscles, and she suddenly felt the need to rip the shirt off. The need startled her enough to make her hands pause and she blinked.
He noticed her stopping and lifted his head to look at her.
"You okay?" he asked huskily.
"Y-yeah," she nodded.
He leaned down and kissed her lips again and one hand went to her hair and she felt him pull it through her hair as he kissed her and felt him lick against her tongue. She had never felt so…so alive, so exhilarated as his kisses and touches caused.
She didn't know where the courage came from but she suddenly felt brave and on top of the world. She reached out and lifted his shirt and slipped her hands under his shirt. His stomach felt firm and strong, his skin was hot. She felt him gasp slightly as her hands touch his skin.
She gasped herself when he slipped a hand under her shirt and his strong large hand caressed her stomach and she almost felt ticklish.
She knew that they were moving into very dangerous territory and if they didn't stop soon then they might take it too far and while she right now wasn't sure she would mind because her body felt like it was on fire and she just wanted to touch him and wanted him to touch her… It felt like she was in desperate need of it… but still…
"…wait," she gasped as she felt him kissing down her throat again.
He stopped and pulled back to look at her. She struggled to calm herself and to catch her breath and the look in his eyes almost had her give in but she knew they weren't ready yet.
"We have to stop," she said.
He swallowed and nodded. He pulled back and she felt the lack of warmth and closeness right away but she closed her eyes as she stayed in the position for a while longer and focused on her breathing.
She heard him move a little and suddenly she felt her legs being lifted and she opened her eyes again to see him having sat down at the end of the couch and had placed her legs in his lap.
"You're not mad?" she asked.
"Of course not, Kenzie," he said and smiled her smile.
She felt reassured and smiled back.
...
Mac sat on her bed with Nao curled up next to her with his tails all out. She smiled slightly as she glanced at him before leaning back against her pillows and her mind went back to earlier. She felt…she wasn't sure what she felt. But that kiss, well it was more a make-out session, had made her really aware of Daiki in a way that scared her a little.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She thought back and wondered if Daiki was secretly upset that she had stopped them, and did he think she was too forward when she had… She blushed just thinking about how she had slipped her hand under his shirt. Just what had she been thinking, doing that? What if he didn't like it? What if he thought she had led him on or something…?
Insecurities and worries flashed in her mind and she felt a moment of panic before she managed to calm herself down again. She had to stop thinking like that.
It was Daiki. She trusted him more than anyone, so she shouldn't make a big deal out of this…but it kind of was a big deal. Thoughts about taking the next step had presented itself to her and she was pretty sure it had done so to him as well now, and how did you turn off thoughts like that?
How could she face him and act like normal now?
She groaned. It was such a mess! She unexpectedly felt a deep longing for her mum. She needed someone to talk to about this and she couldn't think of anyone she could go to. But if her mum had been here, then maybe she could have helped? Wasn't that part of a mum's job?
She didn't know. But the idea of going to her uncle with this was a big no. It wasn't going to happen. And she couldn't really ask any of her friends, she couldn't bring herself to do so. Well, maybe Hermione or Ueno? But… could they help?
She hadn't seen them in a while. She had been so busy and she hadn't even been to a martial arts class in weeks, but she had talked to Matsumoto Yuki about coming back next week and starting her lessons again. Maybe she'd see Ueno then?
But she still wasn't sure if talking to her about this was a good idea. Argh. She would just wait and see, if she felt that the opening was there then she would and if not…well, she was used to figuring things out on her own.
...
"So, our training camp is finally happening," Abe said as he dumped down on his seat on the bus. Yamaguchi, who was on the seat next to him, grunted and looked out of the window.
"Three days with fun and training," Abe continued.
"And Mac," Inoue pointed out and the boys looked to where Mac sat down next to Daiki at the back of the bus. She was rolling her eyes at him but smiled and he was even smiling back at her (they still thought it was creepy to see him smile).
"Why do you say it like that?" Abe asked.
"Because," Imayoshi answered coming up behind them and smirked. "She is going to kill us all during the training camp!"
Abe, Yamaguchi and Inoue gulped.
"She's not really…" Abe started.
"Ah, sorry! Sorry!" Sakurai apologized having collided with Susa who had been forced to stop when Imayoshi stopped. Sakurai blinked as he took in the horror-filled looks from the others.
"Oh, but she will," Imayoshi smirked and his glasses glinted almost sinisterly. "I've seen part of her training menus… They're brutal…"
"Oh man," Abe grumbled. "I should have said goodbye to my girlfriend and told her to always remember me! We're going to die!"
Imayoshi laughed until Susa smacked his head.
"Stop scaring them," he scolded.
"But it's true," Imayoshi grinned.
"Settle down!" Harasawa called out. "Find your seat so we can get going!"
They all shuffled around as they found their seats and sat down while Harasawa made a headcount and checked them in on a list as he did so.
...
Mac stared in wonder as she got out of the bus and looked around at the beautiful nature around them and the mountain that was in front of them. They had stopped at the gates because the bus wasn't allowed inside the grounds of the National Park that was around the mountain.
She walked beside Daiki and managed to act normal and not think too much, something that was easier when there were other people around. She followed the others as they made their way through the gates and started to make their way deeper into the National Park.
She walked in silence mostly as she looked around and took in the scene, she smiles as she caught the sight of a squirrel and watched it jump from one branch to another. She heard her friends talk and laugh but didn't feel the need to join in.
Finally they reached some cabins and what looked like a large building behind it and she would guess that this was the gym. She had no idea who had thought about building a gym in the middle of this place but she wasn't complaining.
Harasawa paused and looked around as he waited for the team to gather around him. He saw them all look around curiously as they did so and he smiled slightly.
"Okay, so this is where we're going to be staying for the next two nights and three days," Harasawa said. "You'll be split into two so that you'll fit into the cabins, of course, Potter-san will have her own and I will not have any boy inside her room, got it?"
Mac blushed and looked down. She felt like shifting embarrassedly on her feet as she felt eyes on her and she was sure Imayoshi was smirking.
"Curfew is 10 every night and breakfast is at 8 every morning," Harasawa continued. "If I catch anyone breaking the rules without a good reason you will be cut from the team. This trip is a privilege and I am placing a lot of trust on you, so I expect you to show respect and obey the rules given to you. Got it?"
"Yes, coach," they said.
"The list of names on the doors on the cabins will show you where you're going to stay," Harasawa said. "Find your cabin and settle in before meeting me at the gym in one hour."
Mac was about to walk off when Harasawa came over to her and she paused. She noticed Daiki giving her and the coach a look before he walked off to find his cabin. She blinked and waited for Harasawa to speak.
"Potter-san," he said. "I'll show you to your cabin."
Mac nodded and followed him to the small cabin at the end of the row and she saw a paper with her name written on it.
"I don't think I need to tell you that I expect that you keep the no boys allowed rule?" Harasawa suddenly said.
Mac felt herself blush again but tried her best to push it back and seem unbothered.
"Yes, coach," she said. "I understand."
He nodded and smiled slightly, "good. I'm not doing this to be a jerk, but it is for the best."
"Yes, I know," Mac said and she did understand but she felt a little put on the spot when he singled her out like this. But then again, he probably wasn't used to having a girl with them on a training camp like this before and she was sure he felt like he had to put down some rules.
"Good," he said. "I took a look at your training regime and it was good. I have made some adjustments given that you didn't know about the mountains and have worked it into the programs."
"That's good," Mac nodded. "I was already working on how to make changes when I saw the mountain."
Harasawa smiled and shook his head a little.
"I think I should fear you stealing my job from me, Potter-san," he said.
Mac looked at him shocked and opened her mouth to protest when she saw the humour on his face and she closed her mouth again and allowed herself a smile.
"I wouldn't do that yet, sir," she said.
He blinked before he laughed and shook his head.
"That's good, then," he said. "Well, get settled in and I'll see you soon."
Mac watched as he walked away and noticed that he entered the cabin next to hers. So he was not going to take any chances, she thought dryly. She wondered how deliberate that move had been… Well, it wasn't like she had planned to have Daiki over here anyway… She blushed slightly as she pushed the door open and walked inside.
She smiled as she looked around the room. The training camp was about to start and she for one couldn't wait!

AN: Another chapter finally ready! What do you think? XD
So, obviously, the next chapter will be the training camp and bonding time for the team! I am considering having another team with a GOM member show up in the next chapter as well ;) I am deliberating between Murisakibara or Kise. Who would you like to see showing up? :)
Thank you for reading and supporting the story! :D
