"Hey," Kuwabara said over lunch, "have any of you guys thought about what middle school you're going to go to?"
"Not really," Sawamura said.
"Me neither," Okubo said.
Kirishima just shook his head since his mouth was stuffed with food.
"We should think about it," Kuwabara said. "We want to make sure all of us go to the same middle school, right?"
His three friends chorused their agreement. "What about Urameshi?" Okubo suddenly said. "What if he goes to a different middle school than us?"
Kuwabara blinked. The idea that Urameshi might not attend the same middle school as him simply hadn't occurred to Kuwabara. He'd just sort of assumed that wherever he went, Urameshi would be there. The idea of going to school without him just seemed wrong.
"We'll just have to make sure Urameshi's going to the same school as us too," Kuwabara said. "He's not allowed to go somewhere else until I beat him in a fight!"
"So, what?" Kirishima asked. "You're just assuming you won't beat him this year?"
Kuwabara sputtered. "Of course I will! This is just a backup, you know, in case I don't."
"Maybe you should just admit that you and Urameshi are friends," Okubo said.
Kuwabara glared at him. "Me and Urameshi aren't friends! We're rivals! There's a huge difference!"
"Whatever you say, Kuwabara," Kirishima said.
