"Alright, students," The class' attention was called by the coach. Everyone was forced out of the bleachers and to the center of the gym, "It's been a couple of weeks since school started, so I think it's time we start doing things in here."

Feliciano raised an eyebrow and looked at Gilbert, who shrugged. He thought they didn't do anything in this class. The coach continued, "You are all going to play a lovely game of dodge ball," groans were heard all over, "and if you don't participate, that's half your grade gone. The team captains are..." He took a long moment to decide, "Gilbert and Alfred. Come on."

Both boys walked up in front of everyone, and looked at each other with a friendly, competitive smile. Rock, paper, scissors was held, and Alfred won. He thought carefully, wanting the best players on his team, "Monika." he said with a proud smile.

Everyone gave him a 'How could you do that' look, but they understood why. Monika was hardcore in this class, almost always first with any physical activity. Gilbert, however, gave him a bad glare. Feliciano could just feel the intense hatred he held right now, "Madeline." He said.

Again, the looks were made but this time, to Gilbert. Madeline was also very scary once they are competitive. Alfred and Gilbert shared a hated look as both girls walked up and to their side. The girls gave each other a confused face.

The picking went on one by one, until finally Anya, a very tall Russian girl, Kiku, and Feliciano were left. It was Gilberts turn to pick, and man was it hard. He finally settled on Feliciano, who blinked and smiled as he went over to his side. Alfred picked Anya, they sharing a smile for a split second, which led Kiku to regretfully move over to Gilberts team. Now, Alfred and his team walked to the other side of the gym, and the balls were laid in the middle by the coach, "At the sound of my whistle," he raised said object, "begin. Ready? One," the teams got in a ready position, "two," Gilbert and Alfred exchanged frowns, "three." Feliciano glanced at Monika, who had her focus on a ball. The whistle was made, and everyone went crazy.

Soon, balls were flying and some people were hit. Feliciano tried his best to dodge. It felt as though everyone was aiming for him! He hid behind Francis for a bit, who scolded him. Being distracted, Francis was hit by a ball. He mumbled a few words in his native tongue as he walked to the side and sat down. Feliciano gasped and started to run again.

"Feli, come on! Play the game!" Gilbert shouted, glancing at his small friend as he threw a ball towards someone on the opposite team. Feliciano looked at him, then at everyone else on his team.

Madeline was dodging more than throwing. You could see on her face she was getting more and more irritated with this. She took a ball and chucked it as hard as she could. It made a direct hit. Kiku took his size to his advantage as he ducked behind the tall people on the team, occasionally throwing balls, but not too hard. Someone on the other team caught one, and he was sent to the bleachers. Antonio happened to catch a ball, and Francis came back to the game. They high fived and went straight into it. Gilbert was acting as if he was James Bond on a mission, making weird noises as he threw balls and dodged them. Feliciano found that really funny.

Minutes pasted and the game was still going. Multiple people were out now, and it was nearly impossible to risk yourself to catch balls. It was heating up and Gilbert and Alfred threw balls at each other, hard and fast. It was as if they had something personal going on. Feliciano made a mental note to ask about that later.

The people left in the game were Gilbert, himself, Antonio, and this one Chinese girl. The people on Alfred's were Alfred, Monika, and Lovina. Feliciano wondered why he made it this far, but he didn't question it. No one seemed to be aiming for him at the moment, but he still needed to be on guard.

The girl he didn't know the name of was hit by Alfred, who laughed loudly. Now it was just the three of them. Antonio seemed to be ganged up on by Monika and Lovina. He was finally hit, "Take that, you Spanish yeti!" Lovina yelled in victory.

Laugher over took the room as Antonio shamelessly walked to the bleachers. Okay. Now it was Gilbert and him. This can't be good, "Feli, start throwing balls! Or else we'll lose!"

Shoot. Feliciano picked up a rolling ball, then looked at the available people on the other side. Alfred and Gilbert were still going head to head, so that left Monika and Lovina. His crush and his sister. Who does he hit?

If he hits Monika, it may lose all the chances he has gained with her. And that took a long time. If he hits Lovina, she was surely going to get revenge at home later on today. Shoot shoot shoot! Feliciano looked back and forward between them, then threw the ball without looking.

A loud hit was made, and it turned everyones head. Lovina raised an eyebrow as Monika made a inaudible gasp. Felicianos hands went straight to his head as the ball bounced away from him. Ouch. That really hurt. He fell to the ground with a loud groan and curled up. The room was spinning and his head felt like it was going to tear in two. Lovina looked at Monika with rage, "Did you throw that ball?!"

"No!" Monika answered, her eyes full of anger that she was accused, "That wasn't me!"

"Heh, that was me." Alfred raised a hand, though it was shaky, "Gilbert moved."

"I'm supposed to, that's how the game works!" Gilbert defended himself.

"Guys, Feliciano looks like he really needs to go to the nurse."

All four of them looked at the Italian, who was still rolling on the ground in pain. Whines and whimpers were coming from his throat and mouth. Kiku stood up and walked over to his fallen friend, "Felicano-san?"

"I'm dying."

Kiku shook his head as the coach finally paid attention, "Who's the nurse aid in this class?"

Everyone turned their head around to see if anyone would raise their hand. Monika, after awhile, did so. Lovina let out a gasp as she did this, "No way! You are not taking my brother anywhere, potato eater!"

"It's my job-"

"He's my brother! I'll take him!"

The coach put his hands up, "Ladies! Lovina, you will not go anywhere. Monika, come here and get this kid. I'll write a pass and then you can go."

Monika looked a bit awkward as all the eyes were on her. She walked over to the pained boy, and shook him a bit before taking his arm and picking him up. She stabled him a bit, took the pass, and started to walk out the door, being followed by a very dizzy Italian.

They walked in silence until Feliciano could register what had happened. He was hit in the head with a ball, and was now being led to the nurse by Monika. Wonderful. Not only did he prove even more that he's a weak idiot, but now she can see his even weaker fear of needles. He wasn't going to get a shot, right? ... Of course not. He was being so ridiculous right now. You don't get a shot for an intense headache... do you?

"We're here." Monika said, stopping in front of the closed door. She knocked first before entering. The nurse wasn't there, "Great." Monika said with a sigh and walked fully in, letting the other in behind her. Feliciano looked around the office. There wasn't a needle in sight. Thank goodness. He sat on a rubbery blue bed, seeing as that was the only real seat in this place besides behind the desk, and watched Monika move around the room as if it was hers. She opened containers and picked out something that was fabric. Feliciano couldn't really see. Even so, he was way too distracted by how her hair lightly bounces every time she stops. And how her hands moved with gentleness. Her eyes were filled with concentration as she did whatever she was doing.

Feliciano soon discovered it was a pouch, and she was filling it was small ice cubes, "Where does it hurt?" she asked, walking over to him.

He took a long moment before pointing at the spot on his head, which was just above his eyebrows. Monika touched the spot with her fingers, causing Feliciano to gain a red face. It was hard to notice, thanks to his tan skin, "As I thought. You have a pretty bad knot."

Knot? What's that? Was his skin turning into a knot? Oh no! He immediately flew his hand up to said spot and felt around. No, no knot... "I don't have a knot..." he finally said, hoping he wouldn't look dumb doing so.

Monika looked at him with a raised eyebrow before placing the pack on his head, "This kind of knot it like a bump. You have a bump on your head, so some people call it a knot." she explained, sitting down beside him while she held the pack.

Feliciano gave a light 've' sound, understanding. He reached up and placed his hand over Monikas. It was warm, and he really liked it, but she pulled her hand away before he could even smile and the warmth was replaced with the slight chill of the pack. He surpassed a frown, but he could see a light blush on the girls face. This was a good sign, right? Wait!

They were alone.

With no Gilbert.

And Monika was blushing at him.

Yes.

Feliciano gave her the best flirtatious smile he could muster. He shifted a bit, scooting closer to the blonde, "Hey, Monika?" He asked looking at her in the eyes. They were so blue. So pretty. "I was wondering-"

There goes the bell. Wow, school. Perfect timing. The door opened and in came the nurse. Monika stood up and started explaining why there were here, and showed the other the pass they were given. Then, she left. Feliciano wanted to scream. She was so close. They were so close. He was so close. But the school ruined it. Thank you, school. Feliciano just let out a sigh, as the nurse started to look him over.

Though, he could of sworn Monika looked back at him before she left. For a brief second, at least.
