Me: Ahaha! I finally had time to write part 2 to The Blue Mists!

Kashino: Because you're to busy eating? T.T

Me: Kashino! I have school too!

Kashino: But you haven't denied that you spend the time eating as well?

Me: I eat of course! But that doesn't take up all my time, I have school, homework, piano...

Kashino: Yeah whatever.

Me: o3o

Kashino: Mikashi doesn't own Yumeiro Patissiere.

"Fine," Hanabusa sighed, "Andou and Kashino are in the nurse's office."

"Why?" Ichigo demanded, feeling her anger simmer down.

"Kashino is sick with a high fever and cough," Hanabusa looked down at the floor uncertainly.

"W-why?" Ichigo asked shakily, "K-Kashino never gets sick."

"H-he gave you his jacket and sweater," Hanabusa said awkwardly, "He got cold and caught a fever."

Ichigo fingered Kashino's thick, green sweater, this was all her fault. Kashino's health affected his grades,"T-this is my fault isn't it?" She could feel tears rushing to her eyes, "Kashino is going to get kicked out."

"You're lucky yesterday was Friday…" Hanabusa said, he had walked across the room and was not looking at Ichigo, "he has all week-end to get better."

Ichigo breathed a sigh of relief; she stood and gathered Kashino's jacket and sweater, "I'm going to go see him."

Hanabusa felt like refusing, if Ichigo went she had the possibility of getting sick too, but at that moment he couldn't bring himself to do it. "Okay, have fun."

Ichigo rushed outside, the air was still chilly. She shivered and stared at Kashino's sweater, he wouldn't mind, would he? Reluctantly Ichigo put on the green sweater and zipped it up. She walked into the nurse's office a few minutes later, "Hello Amano-san," the doctor said looking up, "what happened this time?"

"N-nothing!" Ichigo yelled, "I was just here to see…"

"Kashino-san?"

"Yes…" Ichigo could feel her face heat.

"Kashino-san is asleep right now, but you are welcome to see him." She pushed her glasses up, "I have to run an errand, and I'll be back in a few minutes." She grabbed her coat and walked out of the room. Ichigo slowly walked behind the curtain that hid the beds of the office. A sleeping Kashino lay in one of them, his cheeks were flushed red, and some of his hair covered his eyes. Ichigo reached over and brushed the hair away, immediately after touching him, her fingers felt the warmth of his forehead. His fever was extremely high. She could see his tense face, he probably felt horrible… Ichigo couldn't help but feel she was still the one to blame.

Suddenly Kashino's eyelids fluttered open. He turned to face the figure sitting beside him, "A-Amano?"

"Kashino?" He noticed she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Yeah it's me," a smile started to grow on his face, "what?"

"… You're wearing my sweater," Ichigo blushed and began to remove it,"You don't have to take it off."

She then stopped but left the zipper open, fingering with the hood of his jacket she whispered softly, "K-Kashino… I'm sorry."

"What are you sorry for?" He asked, coughing in mid-sentence.

"You getting sick is my entire fault, I never should have gone outside without a coat."

"It's okay," Kashino told her gently, "I didn't have to give you my jacket and sweater, and it was my choice."

"But…" Kashino placed a finger on her lips.

"It's okay."

Ichigo brought her hand up and moved his finger, "You don't need to get me sick too, you know."

Kashino chuckled softly, trying hard not to cough; he didn't need Ichigo to worry about him. At least she was here with him.

TO BE CONTINUED

Me: There will probably be 1 more chapter after this.

Kashino: Yeah, okay, don't make them wait. If you take too long, they won't read your stories anymore.

Me: Are you actually giving me advice?

Kashino: No! Baka!

Me: Aha, I see.

Kashino: I'm not!

Ichigo: *Whispers in my ear* He cares about you Mikashi, he actually really likes your stories.

Me: Really!

Kashino: Oy Ichigo, what did you tell her? o.o

Ichigo: Please read and review!
