Okey Dokey I think I did all right with the other chapter right? Anyways, I am happy to now that I am making some progress. Not making anything long, please read and review!

Chapter 7- A Little Excuse and what is Yet to Come

Rin's POV-

I went to my locker hurrying to reach Len since he had no patience. Today we talked that we'd do the same thing like yesterday, at my house. Miku came and greeted me talking about some stuff that she read from a good fan fiction writer that wrote a new story saying that 'she was excited for the next chapter'. I put everything in my back pack about to close the locker, when Miku actually shut up for once. No offense to my dear friend, but when she gets started on something she can go on for hours and hours. Once when we had to do a project about the human body, we had to pick a part of the human body to study on I got the lungs, and Miku got the appendix. Somehow, even though it was a small body part to work on, Miku kept going on and on and on, sometimes even talking about something else, and she put every little detail that she knew, and questions to be answered. Until the teacher stopped her and told her it was enough and Miku said, 'But I am only halfway through'. So when Miku becomes quiet all of a sudden it happens rarely, and when it does happen it means it's something major. . . .well. . . to her. But recently when Miku becomes quiet the reason is . . . Kaito. It's like Miku has a Kaito radar and when he's close she can sense it or something. I finally asked,

"Where is he?"

"North"

"Heading?"

"Our direction"

Great! Miku gets all nervous with Kaito. Yep, he was certainly heading our way. He finally stopped and asked us,

"Hey you know where Len is?"

I said, "Yep, me and him have a project"

"Really you never told me" Miku spoke up.

"You never asked me"

Kaito continued, "Oh really he told me he needed help on math and I offered to help him"

Typical old Kaito so nice and kind and caring if only there were more men like him that inhabited the world, apparently these species are endangered because sometimes they die young, mean women get to them first, or they just change personalities.

"Probably Len tricked you"

"Really?"

"He's capable of doing such awful things to me, he could do them to his best friend as well"

"Right"

I was about to leave to let Miku and Kaito alone so that maybe Miku could confess her feelings and such or whatever girls with crushes do, but I thought. Miku is too shy and Kaito is too oblivious to know anything so probably Kaito will leave and Miku will just go on walking alone. I won't make that happen.

"Hey Kaito, since you couldn't help Len how about you help Miku!" I chirped. I pushed Miku slightly in Kaito's direction.

I continued, "It's because Miku doesn't like to admit it, but she has trouble understanding the new math unit we're doing"

"Wait, Wha-"Miku tried to say something but,

Kaito cut her off, "Really?"he looked a bit confused. I nodded.

"You help her, I have to go". I shut my locker grabbed my pack and ran. Knowing in the morning there was going to be a lot of scolding coming from Miku. I heard a distant 'sure', probably from Kaito.

Damn Len's gonna be mad as hell!

And Now so is Miku!

Miku's POV-

I watched as Rin went running through the hallway and making a right turn. Damn Rin! I am going to have a serious conversation with her! I wasn't the one who needed help! She was! I looked back at Kaito, what could I say?!

"Hey you don't need to do this " I whispered.

"Don't worry I am happy to help" he smiled at me. Woah! His teeth are so white!

"Why don't I help you study in the library?"

"Um, sure"

"Great"

We went through the hallway. We were pretty much the only ones there. Except for the librarian organizing some books and a girl reading a book in front of the window, which let out enough light to see the pages of our notebooks and textbooks. We sat down on a table that was near the window and behind a bookshelf that consisted of books about science.

"So what didn't you understand?" He asked me. At first I didn't know what to say because I didn't know what he was talking about but then I remembered Rin and about the excuse of me not understanding the math unit.

"Well I didn't understand . . . . . . ."

~Half an hour later~

"Wow you're a quick learner"

"Thanks" I blushed at the compliment. Even though I already knew this stuff and probably wasn't a quick learner I was happy that Kaito gave me a compliment. I saw him look at his watch.

"Anyways, it was nice helping you"

"Me too."

"What?" he looked confused. OH wait! I said something wrong! I tried to make it sound right which was an EPIC failure.

"Um . . . You know, it was nice you helping me" I blushed more. A tomato would be jealous at my color.

He laughed. Wait was he laughing at me? No! Kaito wouldn't be that mean.

"Sure". He started walking away. Ah man! I couldn't let him go now! Rin would be super annoyed and will be telling me, 'after all the work I did, you let him go! Tsk tsk' Think Miku! Think! I can't invite him anywhere he probably has stuff to do! Oh wait,Got it!

"Um . . . Wait!"

Kaito turned around surprised.

"Since you helped me-" I twiddled my thumbs nervously.

"I thought that maybe . . . we could go on a Saturday to that ice cream shop near the theater"

"Big Al's?" he asked genuinly interested.

"Yeah! That one! It's on me. I mean, you don't have to go with me but if you want" I was waiting for him to reject me kindly saying he was too busy. Instead he surprised me, by saying,

"Sure! how about on Saturday at 10:00?"

"Yeah! That'd be great!" I agreed. Yay! Kaito is going with me to Big Al's. I couldn't wait!

He was about to walk through the doorway when he looked at me with those gorgeous blue eyes of his, he told me,

"Don't worry, I'll pay for the ice cream. I'll feel guilty if you only payed. I'll pay for everything. For my quick learner"

He winked at me and went off. He winked at me not like those perverted men that walk around the street, but kind of sweetly. I felt like a hot potato, so warm.

He called me 'His quick learner' .

I went striding through the halls all the way to home, thinking of Kaito.
