Tired was the exact definition of how crona felt. She had hardly gotten any sleep last night and kept looking over at her window. Pulling out a key she unlocked the schools infirmary and walked inside. Kid had once again loaned her his jacket and she neatly placed it behind her chair. "I heard your looking for a stud. I've got a std only thing I need is you." crona heard a voice from the door. She turned slightly and stared at hiro in horror. "Wait I didn't think that through! It's not what you think!" hiro cried in terror, his face became red with embarrassment.

"I hope its not. I can't help you with that. It sounds personal." crona said with a blushing face. "So hows kid feeling?" hiro asked leaning against the door frame. "Better, in about a day or two the cut on his chest should heal." crona smiled.

Believe it or not hiro and crona had actually became pretty close friends. She really didn't mean to yell at him that day kid came back, she was just under a bit of stress. "That's good to hear. Are you guys gonna go on any missions any time soon?" hiro asked. "No exams are coming up, and I promised liz and patty I would help them study." crona smiled. "Are you not taking the exams this year?" hiro walked in and sat in crona's chair as she sorted out the medicines on a shelf.

"I'm taking a exam based on medicines and such. Stein is making it for me. I've been studying on the ways my blood effects certain medicines I use." crona said grabbing a clipboard and scribbling a few things down. "Sounds difficult." hiro crossed his legs and sighed. "Yeah, but then again it'll be kinda fun. I can see how much I know and what I need to improve in." crona giggled. "I'll be cheering you on, but as for now I gotta go find excalibur." hiro mumbled getting up.

"I thought you were no longer partners." crona asked. "Since I couldn't find any other partner I decided to just stick with excalibur." hiro smiled. He walked over to the door and smirked at the pinkette. "Study hard crona." hiro said and left the room. Crona giggled at hiro's kindness. "He's such a flirt." crona thought to herself as she moved around some aspirin. "Crap only one bottle left." crona grumbled, and made her way to a room connected to the infirmary that kept the medicines.

She heard the office door open and close. "I'll be with you in a second! Please take a seat." crona called from the room. Silence. "Stein? Maka? Hello?" crona called and stopped shuffling around. She heard the office door once again open and close. Grabbing another bottle of aspirin she made her way back into the infirmary to find it empty.

"Um. Hello?" was all crona managed to say. Shrugging her shoulders she made her way over to the shelf and placed the bottle of aspirin next to the almost empty one. Something purple caught her eye and she turned her head slightly. A purple rose. It laid still on her desk with a silk black ribbon wrapped around the stem and under it was a note. Curiously crona made her way over to it. Picking up the note she flipped it open.

To she who I care about

Cronas face heated slightly and giggled. "Hiro your too sweet." she thought to herself and she look around for a vase. Finding one she filled it with water and placed the rose inside. The day went by smoothly with only two injuries one of them being black*star. Once again the blue haired assassin was beaten by kid after ruining the symmetry of the school.

"Hey crona want to come get some lunch with us?" maka asked walking inside the infirmary. "Sure that sounds nice." crona smiled and stood up. Walking out of the room stein walked inside. "I'll watch over the office while you get something to eat." stein called after crona. "Thanks stein." crona said waving goodbye. The professor just waved and lit a cigarette. Walking into the noisy lunch room crona and maka got their food and sat at the table with their group.

"Are you feeling any better black*star?" crona questioned with a smile. "Yeah but I'm still gonna kick your ass kid!" black*star declared turning his head towards the shinigami. "Keep telling yourself that." kid smirked. "You will listen to your gods warning!" black*star yelled jumping up and pointing at kid. "Yeah I listen to all my dads warnings." kid said pulling out a book and beginning to read. "So hows studying going?" tsubaki asked everyone while trying to calm black*star down.

"I've been studying for a month and this time I'm helping soul so he want cheat." maka claimed proudly. "And hows that going so far?" crona asked leaning in slightly to look at soul. He was knocked out. "We were up late studying." maka chuckled. "Speaking of studying, hows the medicine stuff going crona?" liz asked taking a bite out of a roll. "It's gonna well thanks for asking." crona smiled and rubbed the back of her neck.

"My legend begins dates back to the twelfth century!" excalibur shouted. Crona turned her head slightly to see hiro sitting at a table listening intensely. "I'll be right back." crona said getting up and walking over to the table. "Hi hiro." crona smiled down at her blonde friend. "Oh hey crona what brings you over here?" hiro asked leaning across the table. "I wanted to thank you for the purple rose. Its very pretty. And thanks for caring about me." crona said with pink tinted cheeks. "Huh? Yeah I care about you but I never gave you a rose." hiro said.

"Wait so you didn't leave me a purple rose on my desk?" crona asked curiously. "No, but I wish I would've thought of that!" hiro cried and covered his forehead with his hand. Crona giggled. "Your funny hiro. But thanks for answering my question." crona smiled and walked back to the table.

"What were you two talking about?" maka asked with a smile. "I received a rose today and a note." crona blushed and smiled slightly. Kid eyes quickly darted away from the book and looked at crona. "Oh really! Who is it from?" liz asked excitedly and all the girls leaned in. "Well that's the problem I don't know who its from." crona chuckled. "Crona has an admirer!" patty repeated with a smile. "Its not that big of a deal." cronas blush deepened.

"I can't wait for you to figure it out! You two may actually make a cute couple." liz smiled. Kid stood up and all attention turned to him. "Kid whats wrong?" black*star asked while taking a bite out of a roll. "Its too loud in here some I'm going to go to the library to study." kid grabbed his books and left the room.

"Kids a reaper. He doesn't need to study." crona thought and just shrugged it off. After lunch she made her way back to the infirmary. On her way she stopped by the library and peeked inside. "Kid? Are you in here?" crona whispered/yelled. Silence. "Kid I know your in here." crona called out walking inside the empty library. "I can't believe I'm about to do this." crona sighed. "Hiro stop trying to lift up my skirt!" crona yelled. "Hiro is doing what!" kid yelled, all of a sudden running to the railing at the top of the library.

Smiling victoriously crona looked up at the young shinigami. "Found you!" she smiled proudly. "Crona I'm trying to study." kid sighed. Pouting slightly crona walked up the stairs to where the shinigami was. There was a long silence. "Liar." crona giggled. "What! How am I a liar!?" kid asked. "Your the son of lord death you already know everything." crona pointed out with a smirk. Kid was silence. "A little extra knowledge never hurt anyone." kid said picking a book up off the ground and leaning against the railing beginning to read.

"Whatever." crona sighed. He already seemed jumpy and she didn't want to press any further. Crona walked down the stairs and kid silently watched her. Opening the door crona turned slightly and smiled. "Since you didn't give me a straight forward answer, when we get home your gonna help me tutor liz and patty." crona said. Kids eyes left the book and he stared back at the pinkette. "OK whatever." kid sighed.

"Bye bye." crona smirked closing the door but leaving it slightly opened, "Reaper boy." crona giggled. "Dammit crona I told you not to call me that!" kid yelled. "Keep it down!" The librarian yelled at kid. "Oh come on your just now hearing our conversation!" kid yelled. "Don't make me kick you out!" the librarian threatened. Kid held his hands up in defense and went back to reading.

At Gallows Manor

"So a sound soul dwells within a sound shampoo?" liz questioned. Crona awkwardly laughed and rubbed the back of her neck. "Not exactly. A sound soul dwells within a sound mind and a sound body." crona smiled at the oldest thompson sister. "That can't be right! It doesn't make sense!" liz whined and searched through her book. Kid and crona had hid all things that could cause a distraction such as mirrors, nail polish, make-up, tweezers, and etc.

"We've been studying for three hours. I'm gonna go get something to drink, you guys want anything?" crona asked standing up. "No thanks." kid and patty said, "I'll have a water." liz sighed and leaned back into her chair. Crona walked out of the room and when the door closed kid quickly looked over at liz. "So do you know who it might me?" kid asked. "Excuse me? Who might be who?" liz questioned.

"Who do you think gave crona the rose?" kid sighed. "I thought it was you?" patty asked with a raised eyebrow. "No kid would have given her eight roses." liz propped her head on her hand and admired her polished nails.

"Wow you actually pay attention." kid smirked. "Whatever, but you better find out quick. If crona finds out before you do it could destroy the chances of you two having in witch/shinigami babies." liz sighed. "W-what?!" kid asked horrified. "I'm back." crona said opened the door. All eyes turned on her. "Whats going on? Kid why is your face red?" crona questioned and handed liz her bottle of water. "We were just talking about you an-!" patty began but had her mouth covered by kid, "Um I just got a head ache do you mind getting me some aspirin?" kid smiled at the pinkette.

"Not at all." crona smiled and walked out of the room. "Liz tell me what you mean when you witch/shinigami babies." kid asked glaring at the oldest thompson sister. "Yeah sis!" patty asked excitedly. Liz just smirked. "I'm not telling you much except that I already have the names picked out and half your wedding planned." liz said with a wink...
