The Next Morning
Yuuki let out a big yawn as she walked to class. Well, not exactly walked, more like stumbled. She was exhausted. Last night's patrol really tired her out. "Yuuki! C'mon or you're gonna be late!" That was Yori, her best friend and seatmate in class. She started running. 'Crap! Mr. Yagari is not going to like this!' Yuuki thought as she arrived at the classroom, panting. "Ah, Miss. Cross. Glad you could finally not be late this morning." Mr. Yagari stated as he took out his roll board, checking her off. "You may sit." Yuuki rushed to her seat as Mr. Yagari continued teaching the lesson. About 20 minutes into it, Yuuki's eyes started to drift closed.
She tried keeping her eyes open as long as she could, but she gave up and her head fell into her hand and her eyes drifted fully closed. It felt like a few seconds before the bell suddenly rang, sending Yuuki bolting up and stumbling out of her seat, crying out as she pitched forward, falling on her butt on the ground. "Mehh… Ouch…" she winced and rubbed her aching tailbone as she got up. Zero walked past her and she heard him chuckle as he passed. She glared at him and yelled, "Shut up, Zero! That will never happen again!"
Yori only looked at her in worry. "Are you alright, Yuuki?" Yuuki smiled up at her. "At least I didn't break my butt." Yori chuckled. "Yes, that's true. Well, let's go." Yuuki and Yori both left. "So, what are you going to wear to the Spring Ball?" Yori asked as they walked back to the Sun Dorms. "Well… I don't know. But I'll figure something out!" Yuuki smiled at her and pumped her fist in the air. "It's my duty as a prefect to make sure everyone at Cross Academy is protected!" Yori rolled her eyes. "You always say that, Yuuki."
Yuuki slowly brought her hand down and placed it on her head, her eyes crinkled up in laughter. "I don't say it all the time, Yori." They finally arrived at their dorm and Yori opened the door and looked back when she saw Yuuki wasn't following her. "Yuuki? Are you coming?" Yuuki shook her head. "I'm going to go for a walk. I'll be back later." Yori nodded and closed the door.
Yuuki took a deep breath and walked down the corridor. She looked down at the floor as she walked. 'Jeez… Today was not what I expected it to be. I hope tomorrow will bring something better.' But then she bumped into something hard. She almost fell but two strong arms wrapped around her waist before she hit the ground. "Jeez, Yuuki watch where you're going." Yuuki looked up into the silver-lavender eyes of Zero. "S-Sorry, Zero." Suddenly Zero's eyes widened slightly and she realized how close their faces were. She pushed away from him. "W-What are you doing out here, Zero?" He glared at her. "I could ask you the same thing." She crossed her arms over her chest. "I'm taking a walk! What about you?" He made a grunting sound. "Me too." Yuuki smiled. "We can walk together, then." He nodded without another word and they were off. Needless to say, they did patrol the campus when night fell, and when dawn was just starting to show itself, they were already in their beds, getting some much needed sleep.
