Yuka's POV
I'm wearing my school uniform. It's a plain red uniform. I'm actually glad it's broken in, because now it's comfortable to wear.
"Yuka! C'mon! You don't wanna be late for your first day of school," Auntie reminds me. I sigh and run down the stairs.
"Hey Auntie," I pant as I reach her.
"Hey, Kid!" she greets. We both walk over to the car and we get in. I wonder if Kurama will be at school, or if he's still sick...
Kurama's POV
Mother is taking me home. I keep insisting I can go to school, that I'm fine now, but she refuses to let me go anywhere.
"Shuichi, I just don't want to chance anything," Mother tells me.
"I understand." Silence. I look out my window, watching everyone as they walk by, not being fazed by the many teenage girls that stop and wave at me when seeing me.
What if Yuka asks about my demon name Kurama and my human name Shuichi? What'll I do then?
"Come Shuichi. We're home," Mother tells me in a gentle voice. I smile and open the door after I got my seatbelt off.
"So, I'm guessing I'm going to rest for the whole day?" I ask Mother. She nods and I walk to the door, opening the door and walk up the stairs. I go straight into the bathroom. I might as well take a shower.
"Hn." I jump and turn. It's just Hiei, but sometimes he can scare me. He's standing at the doorway, his arms crossed as he looks around my house.
"Hello Hiei. What brings you here?"
"Hn." That doesn't really answer my question, but I'll let it slide.
"Hiei, just... wait in my room until I'm out of the shower," I tell my short friend.
"Hn." Hiei walks back into my room. I shake my head and go inside the bathroom.
I walk over to the shower and open the curtains. I turn the hot and cold faucets and the water sprays out of the nozzle. I strip myself of my clothes before jumping in the shower, even though it's cold.
"Shuichi? Are you in there?" Oh no. I hope Mother doesn't go in my roo- "AAAHHH!!" Uh oh... I turn the faucets and the water stops spraying. I grab a towel and wrap it around my waist. I run out the bathroom and into my room.
Hiei was sitting on the windowsill, staring at Mother with wide, shocked eyes. Mother looks pale. I run to her side and put my hand on her forehead. She was burning.
"Mother, are you OK?" I ask her softly. Hiei continues to watch us.
"Sh-Shuichi, wh-who is this?" she asks me nervously.
"This is my friend, Hiei. Hiei, this is my mother, Shiori." He nods, giving me a look that says, 'I'll be back later'. I nod and he opens the window, jumping out. Mother, thankfully, didn't notice that.
She was going limp. I help her down the stairs and I let her lay on the couch. I walk into the kitchen and grab some medicine and water. I gave the medicine to her, and let her drink the water.
"You'll be fine," I whisper to her. She looks like she's going to fall asleep, so I let her be and I run up the stairs again. I run into my room and grab some clothes. Hiei's at the windowsill again.
"So, is the human fine?" he asks me.
"Yes, Mother should be fine," I tell him, putting on some shorts. I don't even bother putting on a shirt. It's a little warm outside anyway.
"Hn." I then sit on my bed cross-legged, looking straight at him.
"So, what brings you here, Hiei? The real reason?"
"I told you, I'm bored." (sigh)
"So, did you go into stalker-mode last night?" I ask Hiei playfully. He glares at me before smirking.
"At least I didn't stake out the human girl's shop last night." I hitch my breath. He saw me?
"I-I didn't stake out Keiko's place last night, Hiei!" I tell him, waving my hands in front of my face.
"Sure... Liar." I look away from him, heating up just a bit. I guess he's right, though. I just have the feeling something bad's going to happen to this girl.
Yuka's POV
"Class, this is Yuka Izumi," Shiratori-sensei says. This has to be the third class that I've had to be introduced.
"Hey..." I heard some people mumble. ... Man, I hate being self-conscience! And knowing my luck, I'm probably going to trip over something and I'll accidently flash some people off.
"You sit next to... Kaito," Shiratori-sensei tells me, using her index finger to point next to a boy with curly black hair and wearing glasses. He had a small smirk on his face. I gulp and sit next to him.
Shiratori-sensei starts to drone on and on about what we're doing today and for the next few weeks. I'm so bored that I can't even HEAR her!
"So, you're Izumi?" someone behind me whispered. I turn my head and shoulders around. It was just a cutsey-looking girl. But she sounds mean as hell.
"Why? Didn't you listen to the sensei?" She didn't say anything for a few moments.
"All I'm gonna tell you is stay away from Shuichi Minamino!" Then, silence. I blink and awkwardly turn back towards Sensei. So, I'm gonna take a guess and say I'm supposed to stay away from... Kurama/Shuichi?
... Yeah, right.
"OK, that's all for today. Remember to take your notes with you. And for you, Yuka, you can borrow someone's notes so you can take our major test next week," Sensei tells me in a bubbly tone.
... TEST?! MAJOR?! WHAT THE HELL?! ... I'm doomed.
DT: Yay! Weekend!
JJ: Yayz! You gots homework!
DT: ... Where's your homework?
JJ: My pod doesn't get any homework on the first week of school.

JJ: Hey!! ... You're right! :D
