How Could I Forget You?
Disclaimer: I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho. (Does anyone ever put up the simple disclaimer anymore?)
A/n: I know, I know. I haven't updated for a while. I'm very, very sorry. But it's summer now and I can write as much as I want. Yay! Anyway, I'll be updating more and more. At least for two weeks. Then I go to Florida and won't have a computer. I'll only be there for a week and then I'll be near a computer again. Yay computers+hugs computer+ Sorry about that. You probably want to read now. Well too bad! J/k.
Chapter 3: Study Session
Kurama just laughed at his friend's bluntness. Sazumi placed her bag on the table and sat next to the cheerful redhead.
"Are you ready to hit the books?" Kurama asked.
"Not really," Sazumi answered truthfully, "but I won't be passing the test if I don't study." Sazumi ran her fingers through her hair and sighed.
"Let's get started."
She pulled some textbooks out of her black schoolbag and cracked them open. Her eyes scanned the pages as she read the small print. Sazumi grabbed her notebook and pencil to write some notes. She squinted her eyes in concentration.
"Having some trouble?" Kurama asked the frustrated girl.
"Yeah. I'm stuck on this problem."
"Let's see," Kurama pulled the textbook and notebook to him.
"Twenty-eight," Sazumi pointed with her pencil.
"What's the trouble?" Kurama said.
"Well, I can't remember if I'm suppose to distribute the sixteen throughout the first matrix then set it equal to the second, or set them equal and then distribute the sixteen."
"You have to set them equal first. See they want you to find the variables first so you can put them into the quadratic equation. That's when you distribute the sixteen and F.O.I.L.," the redhead explained.
"I see," Sazumi nodded, "thanks."
"You're welcome," smiled Kurama.
The rest of the study session flew by quickly. Kurama helped Sazumi with her questions, while Sazumi absorbed it all for the test.
Kurama was bent over the table reading a book, when Sazumi spoke up.
"Kurama?" she said, getting his attention.
"Hmm?" Kurama asked, lifting up his head to look at Sazumi.
"Well, umm…" she stumbled. Should I tell him about being followed? No. He'll just worry too much.
"What is it?" Kurama looked at his friend with concern.
"Oh, it's just that you're so smart. You don't have to study like I do," she completed.
"That's it?" Kurama knew she wasn't telling him something. He could tell by the uncertain look in his friend's eyes.
Sazumi nodded and bent back over her work. She started scribbling vigorously in her notes.
Kurama continued to stare at Sazumi for a few seconds, before picking up his book. Kurama started reading again and shrugged it off.
She'll tell me when she's ready, he thought.
Sazumi shot a glance at the clock. It was well past noon and she really had to be getting home. She needed to grab lunch before she picked her little brother up from daycare.
"I should be getting home. I have to pick up my brother soon. Thanks for the help, Kurama. I'll see you at school on Monday," she told the boy.
Sazumi gathered her things together and placed them in her bag. Kurama closed his book and looked towards her. Sazumi stood up from the table, with her bag on her shoulder. She gently pushed her chair in.
"You're welcome, Sazumi. I'll see you Monday after your test. Do well!"
Kurama waved goodbye to his friend as she walked away and out the library doors. He cleaned up the area and soon followed suit. That's when he was met by a figure dressed in black.
A/n: Complete. +wipes hands together in a finished gesture+ Do you like? Please review. Plleeeaaaasssseeee! I'll be your best friend. (Bribery always works.) J/k. I guess I'll get started on the next chapter. Tell me if you have any idea. I got nothin' better to do. +waves goodbye vigorously+ Bye. Bye. Bye. Just leave already!
