A/N: Here is the next letter! Sorry if this is a bit longer than the others. Forgive me, but at least I updated, right? Well, please read and review! Thanks!

"Did you hear? Today's a special exercise. We're going to run and stretch with the first years," a random classmate spoke. I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but they were so loud!
I stopped mid-dressing at the conversation. Did my ears deceive me? I hastily pull my gym shirt over my head and proceeded to leave the lockers when an "Oi" reached my ears. I flung myself back against the lockers in shock,
"H-Haru . . ."
"Did you hear?" I saw the cow smirk. "We're going to run together. This time, it'll be fair and square between you and me. I hope you're ready for it, kitten."
I was about to retort to his snide comment when without warning, he unbuttoned his school uniform to change. Apparently he found my newfound expression hilarious because he chuckled,
"What? You've never seen a half-naked man before?"
"I-" I replied, but for some reason, I stumbled over my words.
"Haru ~!"
At that moment I was thankful for the bubbly usagi who happily ran up to us.
"Oh, Kyou. You're here also," Momiji stated. I glanced away, finally pulling myself from the lockers and stuck my hands into my pockets,
"Where do you think I would be? I do have PE this period, you know?"
"You don't have to get mad, I was just asking, Kyou."
I knew I shouldn't be annoyed, but it was an instinct afterall.
I headed out to the tracks where my classmates were busily chatting and stretching. I began stretching my legs also. The teacher had us all at the starting line and I looked around for a few seconds, but couldn't find the Ox anywhere. I didn't think anymore of the bi-polar boy when the teacher blew the starting whistle.

As I ran, I mentally note to watch out for Haru. I continued to run until I spotted the end where the remaining students were lagging behind. I couldn't find Haru anymore. I began to slow down, hopefully to see if I could spot the Ox or Momiji but that was a mistake on my part as a person came barreling into me from behind. We tumbled on the dirt floor, a few scrapes blemished my skin as a result.
When this person and I stopped rolling, I looked down at the body that was sprawled over my torso. It was that damn Ox. He had been following closely behind me all this time!
"Watch where you're going, stupid cow!" I shouted. Haru looked up from my stomach and rubbed his head gingerly with his hand,
"Sorry."
What? No witty comeback?
"Tch, just get up already!" I stated, pushing the cow's head away, but he stilled. I watched as his eyes lingered on the bit of skin that was showing when my shirt had risen up during the fall. With a small smile, he leaned forward, pressing his lips just below my torso at my groin. I supressed a shiver that ran up my spine and swallowed nervously.
Then he was up on his feet in a matter of seconds, extending his hand out towards me. I grabbed his helping hand, letting him pull me into a standing position as well. Before I went to continue the last of my run, I turned to the Ox and sneered,
"If I hear about a rumor of me and you together around school tomorrow, just know that you'll never see the light of day again. Got that?"
"Crystal," the Ox smiled.
The next day, the whole school was chattering about it. Haru was lucky to have skipped school, or his head would've been rolling on the ground right about now. Damn cow. I'll get my revenge, someday.
