Chapter two: Headache
After the incident the other day it was proven clear that Tamao-chan could not be trusted near Nagisa, and so Tamao was assigned a chaperone, Hitomi-san, to remain with her at all times. No exceptions. Meanwhile Shizuma had finished her lessons for the day and so was on her way to her rooms with some hot soup for Nagisa. She eased the door open and went inside. "Nagisa?" the small girl moaned and pushed herself up off the pillows. Shizuma set the tray down on the bedside table and sat down next to her girlfriend "how are you feeling this evening?"
"Still have a headache"
"Aw honey, here this will help," she stated taking hold of the bowl.
"Not hungry"
"You need to eat a little" Shizuma urged gently "for me?" Nagisa sighed and began to slowly eating the soup Shizuma had gotten for her.
"Mm this is great"
"Why thank you Nagisa"
"Eh? Did you…you made this?"
"Naturally. Only the best for my little one"
"You didn't have to, Shizuma"
"I know" Shizuma shrugged "but I wanted to"
Nagisa's heart melted at the knowledge of Shizuma going through all that trouble for her "I am very grateful" she smiled.
"I know that too" Shizuma gave a tender smile and kissed Nagisa's forehead. She raised a hand to Nagisa's forehead "hm still a little warm" Nagisa groaned lightly and leant up into Shizuma's touch. "I'll go and excuse myself from classes for the rest of the day, okay?"
"No, I don't want you to miss out on your education"
"What education? I've done all my exams there is nothing else to do"
Nagisa looked at Shizuma's determined emerald eyes and caved. She was too weak to argue with her beloved. "Alright I'll be here. Sleeping"
"As you should be" Shizuma smiled lovingly before getting up and leaving the room.

Tamao was in her English literature glass when Shizuma walked in and headed straight for the teachers' desk. Nagisa was not with her. Tamao frowned. 'What is wrong with Nagisa-chan?'
"Miss Bloom I am afraid that Aoi Nagisa is ill today with a severe headache. This may develop into a fever so Sister has asked me to take care of her for the week"
Ms Bloom smiled "Very will Shizuma I shall take not of this, in the meantime the class is reading 'Little Women' I expect Nagisa to at least be started by the time she is well"
"But she's ill, she can barely hold her head up let alone read!"
"The you can read it to her"
"But-"
"It's been lovely to see you Shizuma"
"But-"
"Lovely" Ms Bloom said again tightly eyeing Shizuma and then the door behind her. Shizuma glared and reluctantly left the classroom throwing a glare at Tamao-chan as she left.
"What did I do this time Shizuma?" Tamao hissed under her breath as she bent her head back over her work.

Nagisa had decided to be nosy. The soup had helped to clear her head up a little and so she didn't feel dizzy when she stood up from the bed. Her eyes roamed over to the wardrobe. 'I wonder what sorts of clothes Shizuma-sama likes to wear?' She opened the doors and began shifting the garments across the metal rail examining each one closely and carefully. The first seven garments were simple dresses, a few trousers; nothing major, when she came to the last ones her eyes went wide. "EH?"
KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!
"Nagisa, love?" Shizuma poked her head around the doorframe of her room and saw Nagisa sitting up on the edge of the bed. "I have bad news"
"Mmm?"
Shizuma frowned at her girlfriend but continued, "I have to 'read' you 'Little Women' for your English class"
"Okay"
"Nagisa what's wrong? Are you mad at me?" Nagisa shook her head ever so slightly as Shizuma sat stiffly on the bed and wrapped an arm around Nagisa's hips. She pressed her lips to Nagisa's ear and whispered "what's wrong sweetheart, why are you so quiet?"
"I found something," she stated simply.
"What?"
"Costumes" Shizuma's eyes widened "I want you to wear them and model them for me"
Shizuma tried to suppress her smirk "and why would you want that?"
"Because I am not feeling very well and I want to see you dressed as a slutty nurse," Nagisa snapped.
"Anything for you…love" Shizuma took the costume from Nagisa's hands and went into the bathroom to change. "This should be fun"
