The ringing of the school bells rushed into my ears as soon as the drive was installed in my computer. Disappointed, I closed my laptop and turned towards Miku, "I guess we have to check this out later."

Miku winked, "Emphasis on the we. I want to see this." She headed off to class, her long ponytails swaying to the beat of her step.

"See you!" I called after her as I shoved my computer in my bag and adjusted my glasses. I draped my laptop case's strap over my shoulder and walked to Accelerated Algebra or as the course takers call it, "Accelebrated". Stifling a giggle, I walked into the classroom. As usual, I was the last one there, and took my seat across Kiyoteru. He was staring intently at the teacher, his eyes shielded behind the bright glare of his glasses. I stole a glance at Kaito, who was busy doodling miniature ice cream cones in the corner of the workpage. Staring at my own page, I realized that I had already drawn a few stray unicorns with moustaches, and quickly proceeded to solving the problems before me. They weren't that hard. I yawned and dropped my pencil on my desk, cringing when I realized how loud a sound that can make when a room is completely silent. Kaito glanced at me for a second, and smiled, warmly, a smile that caused me to quickly glance away after politely returning it. I stared at my hands and twiddled my thumbs as the rest of the class finished. I was pretty sure the teacher was asking us to share answers but I kept on staring down. My cheeks were burning. All because of that one little smile…?

"Teto?"

I thought I heard a muffled voice call my name.

"TETO!" The voice came clearly now. I fumbled for my notebook and looked up,

"Yes, Ms. Yuane!" I bowed my head slightly to acknowledge her.

Kaito threw me a pitiful glance. I wish he hadn't.

"What did you get for question 7b.?" she said sternly.

I recited my answer and gave a meek smile.

"Correct. Now Kiyoteru…" she circled around the class until we had covered all the questions.

After enduring a lecture, and preparing for out next test, I rushed out the door to find Miku.

The teal-haired girl was standing by my locker, talking to Yuma. As I approached, Yuma quickly looked up and threw his hand in the air,

"Hey Teto!"

"Hi Yuuuuuuuma!" I rolled the u, puckering my lips.

Trying to act swag, I presume, Yuma leaned against my locker door, but his hand slipped and he ended up hurdling towards the ground.

I giggled as I offered my hand. He gladly gripped it, his face a bright shade of crimson. As I tried to pull him up, my foot tucked under his bent knee causing me to join him on the tiled floor. I fell on top of his legs, my arms splayed to the side and my glasses by his wrist. His knees jammed into my stomach, then I plopped onto his shins. Yuma leaned back, surprised, and then curled his lips in a smile, his cheeks reddening further. Adjusting me off himself, he pulled his beanie on tighter, trying to preserve the little amount of smoothness he had left. Laughing, I rolled away, and curled my knees to my chest. Miku sighed as she gave us both a hand and pulled us up. Yuma stepped back, and a sharp crrrck echoed through the air. Realizing what happened, I collapsed to my knees

"Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo!" I looked up at the ceiling. Yuma ducked his head, his expression confused,

"What's wrong?"

I held up the remains of my glasses, "My-my…"

Miku knelt down beside me, "Your Megane…"

"My Megane." I fiddled with the pieces in my hand, trying frantically to fit them back together, "My glasses are dead!"

"Teto?" Yuma's face was crestfallen, "I am so sorry." He whispered.

"It's okay." I forced a smile, "I just won't be able to see for the rest of the day…" I gulped, "my poor glasses."

Yuma awkwardly wrapped me in a strangely comforting hug, "It'll be okay."

I could see Miku giggle from the corner of my eye. Gently shoving the tall boy away, I fumbled for my schoolbag and threw it over my shoulder, "It's not a big deal."

"See you after school?"

Right. I'm supposed to study with Yuma after school today. "Yeah, sure! Of course!"

"Great! See you at the library at 3:30!" He adjusted the headphones around his neck and disappeared down the hall.

I began to walk towards my next class, but found myself tripping and knocking into lockers every other step. Miku guided me in the right direction every so often until we arrived at the French room. My vision was drastically blurred, faces were obscured, and everything was multicolored blobs. I clenched the doorway as I whipped my face towards who I thought was Miku,

"I'm so sorry for this, Miku. Are you late to class?"

She shrugged, "I have study hall right now. So no biggie" She peeked into the classroom, "Bad day to not wear contacts."

"I guess." I took a cautious step into the classroom, "see you later."

Miku skeptically put her hand in the air, "See you Teto."

Within a few seconds of her departure I began to make my way through the desks, finally finding mine in the middle of the room. I was the first one there; even the teacher wasn't at her desk. Resting my face in my arms I waited for everyone else to arrive. It didn't take very long.

"Teto? Are you okay?" A genuinely concerned voice asked.

I lazily looked up to see a pair of deep blue eyes looking into mine. Frantically trying to sit upright, I threw him a lopsided grin, "Fine! I'm fine!"

Kaito brushed his blue hair out of his face, "Bon." And sat down on the desk beside me.

"Excusez-moi, monsieur." I tapped his shoulder, "You don't usually sit here."

He lifted up one eyebrow, "I don't?"

Now I began to feel unsure, "I don't think so…" I was sure my face was beginning to redden.

"Yeah, I don't think so either." He pulled out his French book and flipped it open, beginning to scan the pages. I tried to do the same, but the words were just blurred black lines scattered throughout the page. Kaito noticed my distress and leaned over my shoulder, his navy blue sweater brushing my arm,

"What's wrong?"

I tapped my temple, "No glasses."

"Don't you usually wear contacts?"

"Yeah, but I was too lazy today."

He chuckled, "Too lazy? Why is it so easy for me to imagine that?"

I playfully punched him in the arm, "Shut up."

"You know what; I've never really talked to you before." Kaito replied.

"Now that I think about it, you're right." I rested my cheek against my palm, "You're pretty cool." Not like I didn't know that before…and it's not just the talking either, I glanced away, just being near him…is…

People were beginning to flood into the classroom. Kaito gathered up his things and took a few steps back towards his desk, "Maybe we can talk later?"

"Yeah!" I wrapped my pigtail around my finger, "sure!"

"Great!" He flopped his books on his own desk, "Can't wait."
