The sun had set for the day, the skies turned deep blue with stars hanging on them. The girl sat on a chair which was facing to the side of a white sheeted bed. Her arms were folded above the edge of the bed, and her head was resting on her arms. Her dark blue eyes were hid under a pair of eyelids.
There on the bed laid an unconcious boy. Ever since the afternoon, it had always been like that. Come to think of it, the french girl never had any meals apart from breakfast either. Her attire changed from her white dress to a more casual one: three quarter jeans, a pale pink shirt with a cartoon panda's face printed on it, and a white hooded jacket to cover her arms.
She really had no idea how it had happened, but after the doctor had explained what went wrong, she soon understood.
--
It was a few hours before the young man had fainted, just a few distances away from her. Much to her shock, that her first hypothesis was correct: he was tired. Though he hid it well.
Not being able to do anything-- as usual, she only left the boy's side and ran to call for help. As lady luck seemed to smile upon her, she had found a gardener who was willing to help. It took quite some time to get back to where the boy had fainted, since the labyrinthe was a maze garden, but due to them running, it didn't take quite some time.
Thanks to that, the boy; Kinrui, was able to be carried to the infirmary, and checked by a doctor straight away.
"Fatigue." He said, "That's the problem. A rest for the night should do the job. You should go back too, looking worn out like that..."
The suggestion told by the doctor was ignored by her. She only went back to shower herself and get dressed into fresh clothes. Only after that, did she venture once more, only to visit him.
--
She fell into a deep sleep. Breathing lightly as she kept her eyes shut, mouth closed and perhaps dreaming.

Darkness..
What happened? Oh yeah, I was with a girl..
what was her name again? Magic...Maho..Maho!
He was halfly concious by the time he was trying to refresh himself..
Come to think of it, I havent ate, wait, how come I'm on a soft spot now?
He opened his eyes staring at the white sanitized ceiling, "...T-this doesnt look like the sky.." he said somewhat a part of him thinks he's still outside, he sat himself up rubbing the back of his neck, Pushing his limits just to please ladies, how absurb of him, he made a small chuckle just thinking about it, he needs to take care of himself too..
He searched the room with his amber eyes, catching the glimpse of the one called Maho, did she kept watch on him? Kinrui was flattered, He moved his body closer to the female just to reach and pet while sleeping, "How sweet of you, really.." He said still with the tired tone of his voice, he didnt ate at all, it was a day and half, but the bright side for Kinrui, he's doing diet..

Her brown hair was once again let down and straight. She virtually had no time to wave it, or style it in any way. It acted like a blanket around her neck, protecting her against the wind coming from the window which was kept open, to let air circulate in and out of the room.
The room was like any other infirmatory rooms in the building. The academy was prestige enough to actually build one room for one patient. It was a good thing, people wouldn't like to be disturbed from their rests.
White and sanitized. It had no odour of anything but antiseptics. A white cupboard, drawers. The bed, a visitor's chair, and only one window. Even so, it was quite spacey. A trolley was left near the drawers, that had a tray of food and a cup of water for the patient. Both the water and the food were being kept at a warm, suitable temperature to digest.
A hand caressed her head as she continued to sleep. She stayed still with her sitting/sleeping position. The chair was quite near to the bed, hence he didn't have to stretch. It was easy to only take up a little bit of space with her petite frame. Leaving the rest of the space for the boy.
A couple of knocks were on the door, as the doctor stood on the other side of it. Service checks. It was the same with hospitals. The doctors would always check on their patient every once in a while.

He continued to pet her hair knewing that she was still asleep..
until..
The door opened, a doctor it seemed, he looked so cold hearted, as if he liked inflicting pain, Kinrui had an eye tic for a moment just staring at the guy..
"Time for your check up" The doctor said pulling out a long injection, "Woah big guy, isnt it jut a check up?" Kinrui replied with his nervous tone of voice, "Yeah, I am just messing" The doctor counter-replied as he puts down the injection..
Kinrui sighed in relief making '-_-' face on the doctor, he moved himself away from the female scooting at the doctor's direction first, "Alright, go ahe---" he made the sentence yet cut off as the doctor pulled his arm, opened his mouth forcefully checking, and flashed a light on his eyes, Kinrui had never made to decide to resist, it happened all fast, after all those move the doctor made, he flops down to the bed with '@_@' face this time..
"Its just being tired, get some more rest next time.." The doctor said the doctor landing an energy drink at his cupping place, Kinrui shook his head cursing the guy, "I cant even believe he passed as a doctor.." He muttered behind the guy as the said Doctor makes his way out of the room..

As soon as the door was closed shut, there was a small period of silence in the room. The sleeping beauty soon woke up, although she was taking her time. Her drowsy eyes slowly half-opened themselves, revealing her deep blue irises.
"Nn?" She moaned.
Slowly accending her head and torso away from her folded arms and infirmatory bed. Her arms unfolds and as if it was reflexes, her right arm immediately lifted itself up, as her right hand rubbed her eyes, making them open to its full potential. Her current stance gave her eyes the view of the window, part of the bed where a patient would rest their head on-- considering the pillow, and everything else around it.
However, it did not visualise her with the image of the boy she was waiting for. Subtly reacting to the view she was given, she placed both of her palms on the base of the bed and lifted her torso up straighter than what it was before.
Turning herself and eyeing around the place, in search of one person. She turned to her right, where her eyes found what she had been looking for. Her stiffened shoulders loosened to the sight. A small sigh of relief escaped from her lips.
He's okay...
One again, she rubbed her eyes. This time using her preffered hand; the left hand, trying to awaken her from her slight slumber. She had no idea how long she had been sleeping for. It suddenly happened, as if her body reacted on its own. Perhaps the crying was also part of her temporary fatigue.
All she knew was that she was only sitting in the same seat she was seated at, waiting. Never realising the possibilities of her falling asleep at a place.

he was thinking more curses and swears about the doctor that just checked him up, until he heard of the small audible on his ears, he made a small tilt back on the female's direction, he locked his amber eyes unto her noticing she had woken up to her slumber. perhaps he waked her? with all those racket the doctor made him do, it was his fault, either way, Kinrui just makes his mind up and apologizes..
"Ah, I see you have awaken, Gomene, if ever I am the reason why so.." He said apologizing not to the fact he was a burden to him, he actually tend her presence or so somehow, Kinrui had only female to entertain for an hour or two, but this one is quite better even when its the first time silence usually got thru between them..
"What time is it?" He asked obviously he lost track ever since yesterday, he hated the feeling of collapsing and faiting out of the blue, it was uncomfortable, besides, he wonders how dirty that clothing is for the moment, hopefully the doctor must've wiped his body some with a fabric, or a tissue, or anything..

Come to think of it, ever since the bell had struck twelve, she had never really gotten a follow up of the time anymore. Especially now after she had fallen asleep for quite some time. It must have been long. Last time she saw outside the window, it was still bright; afternoon.
She had rushed to the venue after her shower. No time to be even checking clocks or what-so-ever that tells the time. She only blinked twice before she came back to her senses again. Drowsy.
".... Time?" She said, repeating the question asked to her. "The bell would tell... hopefully."
True that. The bell seems to ring every half an hour. Which does get obonoxious, but people soon adapted to it. She was one of them. The sky was dark-- it wasn't like those early nights like at seven post meridiem or something.
That had sort of suggested the time frame to Maho. She stood up from her chair and walked towards the window, closing it to stop gusts of air coming in.

"Ne, Maho-chan, I think you need to go back to your room now, dont you feel uncomfortable being may too much with me? I mean, its okay if you want to stay, I am just concerned" He stated and suggested longly, it was quite nice of her to keep him company now, but now he is feeling as if he was really a heavy burden to her schedule now, every rich-kid has that schedule thing, but Kinrui slashed that off long-ago, Kinrui wanted to be free as a bird..
"well, you've already slept here, it concerns me that you havent ate as well" He added soon quirking a brow somewhat has the feeling he guessed it right, 'why is she doing all these just to stay watch me?' he asked unto himself inside his mind, sacrifices, he felt something heavy on his heart, his face went '=_=' realizing he was 'really' a burden, "Oye, C'mon, I'll take you to your dorm.." He suggested some more..

Thanks to the slumber, she was restless now. Her body must have felt as if it was rejuvinated, but she still felt a little tired sensation in her.
It would have been normal if one was used to sleeping only at night. It wasn't in her to be sleeping at mid-day right through to the night. Funnily, it happened today. A lot of unusual things happened to day.
A sigh was let out from her lips, as she placed her hands back to her sides. Time-- it didn't even matter to her. From when she was born, time was never a matter. Her family's prestige didn't let it become a bother, even though it always came to her father.
Again, Maho sank to her seat.
She doesn't even know what she wanted anymore. Whether it was to go back to her dorms to sleep in a proper bed, or was it to conserve and stay in the place where she was? Either way, she was now confused, sort of wating both.
"Maho's not hungry." She said to him.
She was more of 'tired', than 'hungry'. Since she was frail, and had a chaffeur to drive her around to places, she wasn't adapt to the way she's living right now.

He sighed as he listen and watch her decline his offer to just go back to her place and get some proper sleep, just to make things right, He scooted at the side of his bed away from her, somewhat wanting her to lay herself there instead, atleast to make it up to her "Rest here, It'll be much painfull, and if you decline once more, I'll force you to lay yourself there" He offered then joked about the one near at the end of that statement, but, Kinrui is quite serious whenever he says something, even though it had the essence of 'kidding'..
He patted the space beside him smiling faintly at the female on the chair, even he had casualty on himself, it seemed that Kinrui would always be a gentleman, ah the teaching of his butler, if Tetsuo-sama was here, he'd be proud of Kinrui acting like this, how he dearly missed the guy..
after he patted the spacing between them he titlted half of his body and his head reaching out of the energy drink, it seemed the doctor wanted him to drink this, he doesnt really trust that person quite well, nevertheless, its for his best right? he opens the said drink in the plastic bottle, before taking a sip he sniff it first, weird really, after so he took a sip then a chug, he swallowed and took breathe after, He placed the energy drink back to where it was gently..

Having no intentions of wanting to be forced to do something, Maho took off her shoes and climbed up to the bed, sitting next to the young man and leaned against the wall. Declining offers was one thing she was good at. It was always due to being prestige. Everything was due to being prestige in her case. She was too dolled; doted and spoiled, so she had blinded the outside square.
Her right hand came to cover her lips which let out a chuckle, as the boy drank his especialy-prepared drink. Looking forced and not trusting the compositions of the liquid.
She drew her legs closer to her, hugging her knees. The girl then rested her chin on the kneecaps and closed her eyes. Both corners of her lips were tugged, forming a small faint smile on her face.
Again, there was nothing much to say.
There seemed to be nothing that could be discussed by the two. Of course, one couldn't leave it up to Maho if they wanted a conversation. She was never good at starting one, only continueing along a conversation.

He watched her chuckled for awhile, somehow making him to make a chuckle too, "You should've seen that guy do things do me, It all happened to fast as if he had a Flash-move speed alice or somethin'" he explained why he didnt trust the doctor, it was true, imagine that happening to anyone, that anyone could be just angry in the meer moment itself..
He moved and motioned his eyes once more back to the girl's eyes, Kinrui was really good at looking at the eyes of a human then could tell what happening or just guess, although he doesnt have that kind of Alice, "Ne, I'll take you back to your dorm as soon as I finish this accursed drink, okay?" He said closing an eye as he grabbed once more the drink chugging it down, he wanted to finish it, but if he forced himself once more, something might happen again, so he stops when the bottle hits the middle of its amount..
"Tell me, why would you stay guard for me? I want to know.." He suprisngly said, curiousity, or perhaps, he wanted to teach her to be more expressive, he wants to teach her how to speak-up and dont lay-low much, humility is good, but shy-ness is kinda sad, thus, Kinrui decided to teach her slowly about speaking, theres a possibility he might succeed, or not..

Flash-move alices; super speed. Funny that, the subject still revolved around alices even when there was an alice ban taking place. Underneath the sleeves of her hooded jacket was the alice restrictor: a black wristband-like, that stays on unless the students were freed from it by teachers and other staff members who held a copy to the keys.
It really does feel like they are missing out on action-- something thrilling. The alice academy: it was supposed to be a place where those who were gifted with un-natural powers gather to teach and learn about them.
With them being taken out of the subject, it really didn't feel like 'alice academy'. It was like a boarding house, with normal classes and no thrill. She had the intention to go back home to her hometown in Paris, but it's not like she'd be able to. To her, and probably a lot of others, there was no use staying here when she could go back home to her self proclaimed palace.
She opened her eyes, lifting her head to engage her sight to the boy's. It was only polite to have eye contact when they talk, right? She wasn't aware of the fact that it was actually rude to be directing eye contacts to the people they're talking to in Japanese traditions. However, the boy may be different, if she was lucky enough.
"Shouldn't Monsieur Kinrui be staying here instead of taking Maho back to her room?" She asked, with a little mischevious smile displayed.
Still huging her knees, she remained with the same position. Wondering if the drink was really that bad. She had always preffered syrup antibiotics over pills or capsules. A question was shot to her again. Only this time, she doesn't really know the answer to the question. It was either pride or sympathy. Although Maho doesn't really hold on to any of the two. Perhaps, there is no answer to it. She wasn't really on guard.
"I was waiting; not on guard."

He chuckled a bit noticing the deliquent smile on her face, it seemed she does have some humor left inside her at all, it just needs to be pulled out somehow, he lended his ears to the girl as she explained that she was waiting and not guardiang, harsh, but Kinrui always had to take those words anyhow, its always everyday, take insults, and take swearings, as well as rants from different kind of humans..
He started to move his legs back unto the ground seeming the female wanted to be back at her dorm, The Aristocratic boy is down to that, he takes another chug on the energy drink the substance inside the plastic bottle, he emptied it and stood up as he motioned the bottle back to its place, Kinrui sighed closing an eye, "Well then lets go.." He said..
Kinrui had the ability to move flawlessly once more, or again, is he hiding it, pushing the limits and hiding the truth, thats what Kinrui is all good at, A perfect Pretender..
noticing that his top hat was at the table near at the bed where he layed, he grabbed it and arranged it back to his silky black hair, sooner or later, Kinrui would need to take a bath, or his blood would boil and act as if he is cold hearted, he dusted off his clothes some locking his amber guys once more on Maho, he patiently waits for her to move, this was her idea after all..

"Waiting for Kinrui~" She said, correcting herself with a playfull tone.
There wasn't much to actually be on guard for. It's not like something was going to come at them. It's the infirmary, where patients were treated to heal. Even if she was on guard, she had done a terrible job at it, considering that she had slept after a while.
It had warmed up; the relations between her and Kinrui. Though that took quite a while, since most people would warm up just by introducing each other with their names. Soon they'd throw so many questions at each other that it seemed as if they knew each other for a long time. It was different with her.
She watched as the boy stepped off the bed and walked over, topping his head with his hat. Had he rejuvinated from just the drink?
Was it okay for him to leave the infirmary now? Either way, he seemed eager to be getting out of the place. She stepped off the bed as well, slipping her sandals on and walked towards the boy.

Ah, Kinrui was quite happy hearing that tone of voice from her, it seemed to him she had became more comfortable with him, thats a good thing, Kinrui wanted ladies to treat him as if he was their older-brother. He started to walk out, obviously the female would follow, just about outside when they were walking, storm was brewing upon the air, it was quite unusual, nothing was announced on the Television as far as he was told off..
Walking, he his distance align with the female, both of his hands swaying along as his legs moved, he took his eerie gaze out of the sky and back to where they were headed, "We must hurry, we dont want to get wet, Ne?" He said and suggested, he can take the rain, but he was more concerned on Maho, he knew that she was reach, she'd probably hate the water falling from the skies, slowly he accelerated his walking's speed expecting the female to aceclerate as well, he would stop accelerating if Maho wouldnt follow though, it seemed that he would just go what would the girl wanted or so, or maybe he just scared, back then, when he was a kid, he was always alone when it had storms, he had to suffer the fear of lightning and thunderstorm, so thats must be it, come to think of it, Kinrui's voice did change when he said something about the storm's cloud being prepared up..

The storm was brewing in the skies. And at the wrong time too.
The two exited the room, and Maho had considered to close the door behind them, and trotted to the boy. They walked as the skies were about to crack. The boy speeded up, saying the two should hurry. Instead, the girl only accellerated her speed to reach out to him, her fingers would curl around a piece of cloth off the boy's sleeves, trying to stop him.
She stopped her tracks, letting go of the sleeve. Hopefully, he too would stop, if her fingers did manage to curl around his sleeve.
"We shouldn't haste..." She said.
Clouds didn't recide. Instead, it was the opposite. It just kept growing thicker and thicker as it carries the heavy rain that they're about to be letting out into the earth's crust.
"If Kinrui doesn't mind Maho's selfishness... It's better than running out in the rain, right? There's a possibility of lightning struck."
It came sooner than expected. The skies cracked, letting out a flash of light that came almost instantly. Only a few moments later did the sounds come. Reacting to it, Maho ducked her head, placing her hands over her ears, trying to block away the sound.

He stopped moving as soon as she wanted the rain after all, rain is fine for Kinrui, but, as soon as the lightning struck, Kinrui twitched a bit closing an eye, After the said thunderous sound emits, Kinrui turned his gaze to the female nodding, he hoped that she didnt notice his twitching moments, Lightning and Thunder, if Maho was afraid of it, Kinrui was probably afraid of it more, his heart is beating insanely for the moment, he knew that there are only 1.5 percent chance that lightning could hit him, but he doesnt really know why the hell should he be scared of it..
if Maho would feel his hands now, he was shaking, but not visible if you just stared so, he nodded as a drop of rain suddenly fell, the storm was rather fast, it soon dropped millions of drops on just the meer moment..
The storm cackles another lightning once more..
Kinrui closed his eyes panting, he was scared, he stared up to the sky for a moment as his whole clothing got wet immiedietly, he takes off the upper layer of his clothes putting it on Maho's shoulder as if it was a jacket, his eyeliner started to drip below his eyes, the rain probably had to wash some off, his frowning face about the rain and bright thunder turned into a smile for the female, somehow he felt as if he can take on the said lightnings whenever she was around..

Her shoulders dropped as her attempt to stop the boy was futile. She knew it was, only she wanted to try to do something. The drops of water once again drenched her hair, which was dry a few hours ago. Her clothes started to be damped with water, which soon turned it quite adhesive to her skin. Feeling the cold due to being wet.
He covered her with his clothes. She was helped once again. Seems like the only thing she could do was wait for him to regain his conciousness at the infirmary.
The smile casted upon the boy's face was felt as if he was trying to comfort her. She pulled the cloth over, tighter around her shoulders. It was way bigger than she is, however, it didn't help. She only clenched it tighter, her hands and feet were now cold and wet. Her lips turned pale.

"...Ikuso ne?" He said raising a brow, he took one step, but stopped, his usual hair style was now ruined, he had a longer bangs, but usually he styled it on the side on the side of his hair with somewhat a spiky apperance, his top hat was drenched too, but not really visible to the eye somehow it was made with a special fabric, now his hair covered one part of his eyes. the motion of his feet stopped on just one step "Can you keep up?" He said then turning his body's direction back to her, he was obviously more concerned to her than himself, he'd carry her if she was too cold to move, obviously if they were closer body heat help..
patient he waits for the female's reply, yet again a lightning struck on the skies, but rather closer this time, Kinrui made a fist turning back to his direction, he bit his lower lips trying to calm himself down using the pain on the said part of the lips..
this time, he can barely cover himself from the lightning's presence, fear had obviously been dominating himself than his pretending action, if a person knew he was afraid and he always used to cover himself, ponder would have been made on how long can he keep up doing it? come to think of it, he pondered himself, but how come he feels safer than usual, he'd usually run and hide at a corner, but now, he's staying cooler than back then, the female's presence was already helping him..
