AN: Yeah, another chapter. I've got nothing to say here so... tada!

"Hey, Matt. You want to come play soccer?" Jax asked from the common room doorway. Matt paused his game and gave her an 'are you serious?' look. "I guess that's a no. Fine, I'll go make a fool of myself without you!" She stuck her tongue out and left the room.

"So he's not coming?" Linda asked sadly as Jax ran outside. The redhead shook her head.

"Alright. So now that Jax is playing," Skander flashed her a huge smile. "We don't need any subs! Who are captains this time?" Since everyone wanted to be a captain, the little geniuses had come up with a rotation that made sure everyone got the chance.

"It's mine and Krater's turn." Zeon said. "And Krater gets first pick."

"Mello." Everyone was afraid of the blonde, but there was no denying that he was good at this game.

"Skander." The best friends high-fived as they started their team.

"Cliff."

"Jax."

"Rain."

"Linda."

"Don't worry, stick by me and you'll do fine." Skander said to Jax. "This is your first game with us after all."

"I've played soccer before." She scoffed. Krater won the coin flip, so Mello grabbed the ball first. Linda whistled loudly, and the game started.

After only 20 minutes Jax was already getting exhausted. She hadn't even had the ball that often. Her team had managed to score once, but the other team had come close many times. Jax watched as Skander was aiming to kick the ball into the goal again, and no one was close enough to block it. Then, from out of nowhere, Mello came sliding in to kick the ball away. His technique worked, though Skander ended up kicking him in the head. Linda whistled loudly again, signaling that it had been 30 minutes, their agreed time limit for this game.

"Are you okay, Mello?" Rain asked. She squatted down next to the boy, but he completely ignored her. She sighed and let Linda lead her away. The other kids also walked off. Mello stood up, but quickly grabbed his head fell back to his knees.

"Come on." Jax walked over and held out her hand. Mello swatted it away, but she brought it back in front of him. "I owe you for the slap." The blonde hesitated, but the grabbed her hand. He stood up shakily and leaned against her slightly.

"I just need to get some pain killers from Roger." Jax slowed her pace to match Mello's as they made their way to the Headmaster's office. She knocked quickly, hoping no one would notice how heavily the boy was now leaning on her. After knocking a few more times, she realized Roger wasn't going to answer. "Oh no…" Mello mumbled, before he promptly passed out.

"Matt!" Jax tried to keep Mello standing, but she wasn't strong enough, and had to slowly lower him to the floor. Amazingly, Matt had heard Jax's cry over the sounds of his game. He came running out of the common room and over to her.

"Bloody hell! What happened?"

"He got kicked in the head from soccer! And I helped him get inside but Roger's not in there so he passed out!" Jax said frantically. Matt didn't understand her story, but bent down to grab the blonde anyway.

"We should just get him to his room." Between the two of them, they were able to lift Mello onto Matt's back, and get him up the stairs. Thankfully, everyone was working on their homework already, and too busy to watch the trio's struggles. They finally made it down the hall to Mello's room. Jax quickly opened up the door and waited for the boys to get in. However, just as Matt, still carrying the unconscious Mello, walked through the doorway, Linda and Rain happened to be coming up the stairs.

"I told you Mello was hurt badly!" Rain shouted as soon as the door shut behind them. She turned to her friend, but Linda was just staring wide eyed at the door.

"Matt is cute AND nice… he's perfect!" Rain smirked at the blonde girl.

"Somebody's got a crush!" Linda blushed furiously.

"Well you like Mello!"

"That I do."

"Yet… neither of them likes us." Linda sighed.

"Oh they will. Trust me." Rain's eyes had lit up and she had a plotting smirk on her face as she dragged Linda into her room.

It had been four months since Matt and Jax had taken care of Mello, yet nothing had changed between them. The only sign that something had happened was that Linda and Rain were now persistently flirting with their crushes.

Jax was sitting at her desk, trying hard to learn her Spanish phrases. When Matt told her that learning at least 10 languages, fluently, was required, Jax had laughed. Now she was pulling at her hair in frustration. She gave a sigh and glanced around her room, hoping for a distraction. Miss Marie had taken her shopping quite awhile ago, and now she had a black and white checkered bedspread, with rainbow colored pillow cases. Posters from some of her favorite movies, and one Pokémon poster Matt had insisted she hang up, covered her walls. There were a few other personal touches, such as her beaded curtain and her new radio.

Jax gave a small jump when there was a sudden knock at her door. She pulled her headphones off and called out.

"Come in." The door opened to reveal Linda and Rain. "Oh, hey."

"Hi Jax. I know we don't talk much… but we needed to ask you a favor." Jax became immediately suspicious.

"What's up?"

"Well… we wanted to pull a prank on Matt and Mello." Linda said.

"We're going to steal their clothes, and pretend to be them!" Rain said cheerfully. The redhead started laughing.

"Sounds brilliant! What can I do to help?" The girls broke out in smiles at her question.

"Well, neither of us owns a Game Boy, and we know that you do, so I was wondering if I could barrow it to play Matt." Linda explained.

"And we were also hoping you could be our lookout while we go through their rooms, seeing as neither of them will actually attack you." Jax smiled and nodded.

"I can do that." She grabbed her Game Boy off of her shelf and handed it to Linda. "You'll also need Matt's glasses, or it totally won't be him. I can grab them for you without causing too much suspicion."

"Oh right!" All three girls broke out in giggles.

"Last we checked Mello's in the library, and Matt was in the common room." Rain explained. Jax stood up and joined them in the hallway, only she was staring at the staircase while the other two went into the boys' rooms. Ten minutes later they came out with an armful of clothes. They all ran back into Jax's room to change.

Rain pulled the black shirt and dark jeans on over her other clothes, as they were too big to wear alone. She picked up the chocolate bar she had gotten earlier and giggled.

"A cross would make it perfect!" It was a known fact that Mello always wore a Rosary under his shirt.

"I think Daisy has a necklace, it would be close enough for people to figure out." Linda said thoughtfully. She also slipped the striped shirt and plain jeans on over the top of her own clothes, hoping it would help them stay on better. She picked up the blue Game Boy and smiled.

"Let's go get the necklace and glasses!"
