"There." Yue smiled briefly, finishing bandaging Natsume's wound on his side abdomen. He tugged on her hair with the free hand that wasn't in his pocket, giving a silent thanks in which Yue understood.

"Those damn men in black." Her small lips forming a tiny pout, his eyes visibly softening while still tugging on her silky blue hair. They were both sitting down on her soft carpeted white floor, Natsume leaning his back against the small bed close to the floor with one hand in his pocket, his other hand tugging on Yue's hair as she was putting back the medicine and leftover bandage inside her first-aid kit. She was sitting traditional Japanese style next to him, then swiftly standing up and walking to her large maroon closet that was in the corner of the room, opening it with her free hand and putting the first aid box right in front, closing it afterwards with a soft sigh.

"Natsume, I have to go help Mikan out so come visit!" She eye smiled, tilting her head to the side slightly, the stoic faced boy giving her a questioning raised eyebrow with hardened features on his face. Yue chuckled lightly, patting his arm in encouragement.

"It's alright. One of her classmates was out due to a cold so she asked me to help out." Natsume stared with narrowed eyes, wondering if this petite bluenette would be alright by herself before sighing annoyed and nodding curtly, Yue close eye smiling and chuckling lightly while hugging him from the neck, his hand that was freely tugging her hair now holding her by her tiny slim waist. She pulled away calmly and stood up in front of him, the familiar dark crimson eyes staring at her every movement as she leaned down, her hands now on her knees.

"Come visit, nee?" She smiled softly, putting her pale tiny hand out for him to take, in which he took no delay and grabbed it with his larger warmer hand and softly pulled it closer to his face while moving her palm upwards, his lips meeting the softer cooler skin. She flinched with surprise and embarrassment at the warmer feeling on her palm which made her slightly pull back and she would have had her hand by her side if it wasn't for the strong male hand that was tightly grasping hers.

This.....she didn't expect that her trying to 'lend a hand to get up' plan would turn into quite an.....unexpected situation. Yue blinked in confusement, feeling the skin on the place he was touching tickling while her face just felt unusually higher in temperature, matching the rapid beating of her heart.

"U-um....Natsume..?" She mumbled while softly tugging to get her hand back, in which only made him raise his eyes slightly at her, -her heartbeat can't take any more of this, what's with that look!-, Yue cringing with a soft gasp when in a rapid swift motion he roughly tugged on that hand and brought his lips to her arm, she flinched in shock and swiftly pulled back her arm when she felt an unknown soft pinching pain on the spot where he had his lips to.

He casually leaned back on the bed and put his hands in his pockets calmly, as if he didn't just do anything, and smirked. Freaking smirked. Yue's eyes narrowed slightly, confused at what just happened and changed her view from the smug Natsume to her arm and hand, wondering what he jus-

"Natsume!" She yelled a bit loudly, her eyes locked onto her arm while her pale face was covered in a light pink hue. He stared at her in a challenging way.

"You can go now." Yue glanced at him, then sighing softly with a shake of her head, completely flabbergasted at what he just did........oh well, Natsume will be....Natsume.

"YUE-CHAN!!"

"Omf..!" Mikan glopped the tinier girl by the shoulders, Yue lightly chucking and gently pulling the hyper-active smiling widely Mikan off.

"You're wearing the outfit that Hotaru gave you! Kawaiiii~!" She smiled with hands clasped and stars in her eyes, staring at a calmly smiling Yue that had on a light blue bunny outfit with thigh length, looking like a large sweater with long sleeves as it had bunny ears on the hoodie and a fluffy white tail in the rear end, white and blue stripper knee high socks, and her caramel boots that she always wears, plus her white bunny was on her shoulder, slightly being hidden since the hoodie was up and halfway over her bluenette head.

"Mikan looks cute too." Yue lightly chuckled as Mikan laughed happily at the rare compliment of the petite girl. She was dressed in a pink genie costume, just like everyone else that were in a large group behind her, most of them older in the middle section. Mikan handed her a large yellow board that had a long wooden thick stick which would be easier for her to hold, the dark letters "Welcome to RPG!" in big wordings, easier on the eye to see from far.

"But you already have quite a crowd huh......that's remarkable." Yue smiled softly while eyeing the crowd from behind the curtains. Mikan brightly smiled and nodded rapidly, "Were on a short break!"

"Mikan-chan, is this your friend?" Yue raised her head and calmly smiled at the crowd of older kids from Mikan's class, many whispering in exciting form and glancing at the younger mysterious girl, others just in awe staring, wondering why such a person was here.

"Waah, its Yukishiro-chan! Mikan-chan told us about you, thanks for helping out." An older female with carmine pink layered hair and a welcoming smile exclaimed, Yue nodding once with a soft smile.

"Uwah, so smaalll....."

"Don't be rude!"

"Ite!" The comedic act was formed so naturally, -Yue chuckling behind her fist-, by the red haired girl and a guy with a star on his cheek who was staring in awe while leaning down at the smaller bluenette girl before being smacked on the head by the red haired girl.

"Don't mind him, he's just like that. My names Misaki Harada, just call me Misaki ok?" She winked with a friendly smile, Yue smiling softly and nodding with a tiny bow of the head in acknowledgement.

"And this baka is Tsubasa Ando!"

"Oi!" Said person yelled in irritation yet playfully as Misaki began to naturally leave and talk to others, Tsubasa mumbling to himself then blinking with widened eyes at the petite girls as if just figuring that they were there, even though Mikan was laughing happily by the short play, Yue smiling close mouth with a small tilt of her head.

He blinked and coughed with slightly flushed cheeks behind his fist, his other hand on his hips. "So you're Yukishiro-chan huh.....nice to meet you, am Tsubasa Ando, just call me Tsubasa-sempai!" He winked while thumb pointing at himself, a playful grin on his charming face. Yue smiled and bowed her head a bit, ending with a soft amused chuckle at the older sempai's.

"It's alright, please call me Yue I don't mind." She close eye smiled with a small tilt of her head, the older group of kids aweing at her cuteness, the background filled with soft pink and sparkles floating about.

"Yue!" Yue turned her head at the familiar voice and lazily jogged to the blonde boy that was holding his bunny, glopping him around his waist as his rabbit stared straight into the white bunny on Yue's shoulder, both lil creatures staring at each other in challenging stares.

"Ruka! What a cute waiter you make, nee?" She pulled away and stood a foot away, gently close eye smiling up at the slightly blushing Ruka who staggered back with a shaking head as his face held a sweating bead.

"You're helping out too? Why didn't you say anything?" He questioned after calming down, some blush still left on a cheek. Yue blinked and tilted her head to the side slowly.

"I didn't tell you? Eh." She chuckled lightly behind her fist, a sighing Ruka smiling.

"I told Natsume just a while ago." She eye smiled, "Told him to visit too, hehe." Ruka nodded with a warming smile while gently patting her head that was covered with the hoodie.

"Break times over!" Someone from the crowd of kids yelled, everyone running to their supposed spots rather excitingly. Yue and Ruka looked at each other, she smiled and air fisted, "Gambatte~!"

"Oi oi, isn't that Yukishiro Yue...?"

"Oh my gosh how adorable!"

"Was that scary kid always this small...?"

"This is the first time I've seen her, she's so small!"

"Uwah, that dangerous student is here, don't get close..!" And so much more whispers and many different glances from the large crowd of students that were in a long line waiting to enter the RPG game of Special Class. Yue was lazily walking like a soldier, one foot high up then down, and then the other and so on, looking like a toy doll that was moving while holding up the large yellow sign by the thick weightless stick.

Thank god they knew she didn't have much strength and prepared such a tool. Casually tuning out everyone's whispers that were rather loud since it was such a huge crowd, and rather much concentrating on her bunny, giving her glances since the fluffy white creature was chewing on a chew toy.........can they do that? Yue wondered into those thoughts with a raised eyebrow hidden by her soft fluffy bangs that were long till the middle eyesight. Yue smiled gratefully as she gave the board to an older student of Special Class that insisted on helping since she had been holding it for quite some time now. She leaned on the wall with an inaudible sigh, closing her eyes while relaxing her body. Sure the board didn't weigh much but to be doing it for a while is............she overestimated her strength. Thinking that she sighed with closed eyes once more.

"Yue! Are you alright?" Yue opened her sleepy eyes and raised her head, smiling slightly.

"Am alright. Just not used to doing so much movement is all." She chuckled lightly, trying to lighten the worried mood on Ruka who had his eyes narrowed a bit in worry, holding white tickets in his hand while in his shoulders his curious white rabbit was doing a blinking motion of winking to Yue's that stuck her tongue out.

"Be careful ok? If you feel bad, take a rest or go to the infirmary alright?" He sighed when she nodded once, a small smile on her naturally pale face while her clear aqua eyes stared steadily into his blue ones.

"Am alright Ruka. Don't worry!" She smiled persuasively, Ruka giving a giving up smile with a short sigh, knowing of how stubborn she would be.

"There they are!"

"Ah, Natsume!" Ruka widely smiled, Yue blinking with gleaming eyes and the corner of her lips curving upwards to a smile as their stoic best friend came calmly marching up to them, -his usual hands in his pockets-, with their Mind-reader classmate Kokoroyomi, -holding a blue box of sweets in his hands with the usual permanent smile-, who followed behind the fire caster.

"Are your injuries okay now?" Ruka questioned broadly smiling, Natsume still silently marching up to them, Ruka and Yue exchanging a quick confused glance before his hands launched onto Ruka's and Yue's bunny ear, him tugging more roughly on Ruka's then Yue's, while Koko also tugged onto the other bunny ear of a now blushing Ruka that kept staggering because of the tugs, while Yue was chuckling lightly in amusement.

"He says, 'My injuries were no big deal, Yue already bandaged them.' " Koko happily said while reading Natsume's mind, Natsume briefly glancing at the close eye smiling Yue, -who's bunny ear was still being lightly tugged-, then glancing back in full amusement of the blushing and embarrassed Ruka that kept staggering due to the tugging of both boys......of course Koko couldn't-and wouldn't tug on Yue's bunny ear, that would just mean being immediately marked on Natsume's 'What-to-burn list'........how comical that must be if he actually indeed had such a list haha~

"Natsume..." Yue slightly pouted, seeing that her hoodie was being moved to the side that the amused ebony haired boy kept tugging at, Ruka still in a staggering position with a flushed face.

"He says, 'It's plushy and fun to pull.' ". Koko happily said once more, Yue tugging back the hoodie with her hands even though his hands didn't let go and he resumed. Stubborn Natsu.

"Oi, that's Natsume"

"Eh? No way!"

"It's true. What is he doing here?" The whispers began to heighten and change from one topic to another, Natsume with his hands inside his pockets while calmly glancing in different directions from the mumbling crowd.

"Natsume, Hotaru gave me this outfit for today, what do you think?" Yue gently grabbed his arm sleeve, the fire caster looking down at the close mouth smiling Yue whose eyes were staring straight up at his. He glanced down at her body, -...Is he checking her out or what?! Does he have to slowly move his eyes like that?!-, then moving up his dark eyes landed onto the supposed spot where he made his mark that was being hidden by the long sleeve. He clicked his tongue in annoyance, hating that what he had planned didn't work, Yue raised a curious eyebrow but didn't say anything, obviously tuning out the new whispers that began to float around,

"Those are That Yue and Natsume!"

"Somehow....they look cute together?"

"Ehh, so I wasn't the only thinking that way, thank god!"

"They look different when they're together nee."

He gently grabbed her long bunny ear again and leaned down slightly, pulling the tip of the ear to his lips, opening his eyes and glancing at a calm Yue that looked used to his abrupt touchy actions, yet her pink cheeks explained differently.

"Kawaii." He whispered inaudibly, only the softly smiling Yue hearing the word while mumbling an "Arigato", sparkles filling the sudden light pink background, as if both were in their own world. And just when he did such an action, Ruka sighed short, used to such moments between his two best friends, Koko only blinked with widened shocked eyes which turned back to normal rapidly. If it were only these two that saw, then such a loud commotion wouldn't have started, and yes, the gigantic line of kids did indeed watch with much interest, now loudly exclaiming in excited conversations about what just happened, mostly the girls' squealing.

"Hey! What's going on here?" The familiar Sempai of Mikan came out from behind the curtains with stern azure eyes, then blinking confused at what was going on, Yue turning her head around and close eye smiling calmly.

"It's nothing Sempai. Don't worry about it." His abrupt tiny blush and nervous blinking from the sudden mature smile of the petite beauty in front of him made an ebony haired boy narrow his eyes dangerously at the older male figure, -the crowd shifting away in meters rapidly-.

Tsubasa composed himself with a 'natural' cough and walked up to the small group of Natsume, Yue, Ruka, and Koko with hands on his hips, looking ready to find out what the sudden commotion was about.

He let it go, though when he glanced down at the younger bluenette girl that had on a persuasive tiny close mouth smile, then glancing back rapidly, wondering why the hell such a petite life form made him nervous.

"What's up? Are you here to check out our RPG?" He casually asked, Natsume's eye's narrowing into a glare while staring up at the taller and older Sempai with a charming boy smile on, Ruka narrowing his eyebrows up while still holding his rabbit that kept moving his whiskers in the same way as Yue's bunny that was on her shoulder, both having their own silent conversations.

"Let's go, Yue, Ruka." Natsume began to walk away with his hands in his pockets as usual, Ruka following suit with a confused Tsubasa that stared at their backs before blinking down to the chuckling lightly Yue.

"You gonna leave, Yue?" He questioned while staring down at her, she tilted her head to the side and opened her mouth to answer-

"What did you just call her?" Natsume grumbled out in anger when he rapidly halted and turned his head around, Ruka also turning his head at the same time with slightly narrowed eyebrows and a stiff face, the fire caster glaring at the older Sempai that had a sweat bead on his cheek.

"I can't leave yet, gomen Natsume." Yue smiled apologetically, after a few seconds Natsume tugged her hair softly in understanding with Ruka nodding.

"Well let's go!" Tsubasa smiled widely, giving Yue a friendly pat on the shoulder with his hand, his other on his hip as Natsume's and even Ruka's eyes narrowed, Natsume's more of a glare while Ruka's more of a cautious way, the older Sempai turning his head around and sighing in a taunting way, as if he just realized something, Yue chuckling lightly from behind her fist.

"Well, putting that aside, might as well, since you came all this way. Why don't you try playing our game?" He smiled closed eye with hands on his hips standing beside the opening with a calm smiling Yue next to him.

"It looks like fun, so..." Koko said happily while holding up two tickets, "I also got a ticket for you, Natsume."

"Like I'd really play a stupid game like this." He stated low with narrowed eyes, then turned around with hands in his pockets, Yue sighing though her nose with a close mouth small smile and a tilt of her head before her eyes slightly widened and she glanced up when she felt a soft pat on her head, seeing a mischievous grinning Tsubasa. She raised an eyebrow and wondered why he had on such an expression, but seeing Natsume glare back at him made her slowly face palm with realization. Boys.

"Well, if it's such a stupid game, I'm sure beating it would be pretty easy for you, huh?" The older Shadow Sempai taunted with a slight smug grin, Natsume turning back around with his eyes still narrowed, -the crowd shifting away meters once more.

_**_

"Nee, Natsume-kun, what weapon did you get? I got a flower." Koko held up his weapon, a pink flower in one of his hands, Natsume reaching down into the hole of the large yellow box that had three holes to grab items from, him reaching down into the middle one and pulling back whatever he first grabbed, in which when he opened his hand and looked down, a brown cockroach was scratching its head calmly looking back at him.

"Oh, nice to meet you. I'm Mecha Cockroach." The two Special Class older female students that were staring down at the object yelled and jumped away just as Yue calmly walked right next to Natsume, looking down with curious sky blue eyes at the friendly cockroach. She tilted her head and close eye smile in a warming way,

"How cute." She lightly chuckled, the male cockroach blushing a bit, a black shadow appearing over Natsume's eyes making him close his hand that held the friendly roach and put it inside his pocket, Yue tilting her head but not questioning anything and just silently following him to the curtained opening of the game.

"Gambette, Natsume." Yue close eye smiled and waved with one hand to the ebony haired boy that stood right at the opening as he nodded his head curtly while staring at her retreating form walking inside since she had to be in her position at this time.

"Well, good luck to you." Yue heard Tsubasa tell a silent Natsume, vaguely hearing the familiar scoff-inside-his-throat Natsume, but still being able to hear what he said next since she wasn't that far.

"You'd better keep your hands off, bastard."

"Eh?"

"As soon as I beat this damn game, I'm going to make you my slave." He threatened the older male. Yue sighed with a chuckle, knowing Natsume won't ever change since this was just how he was, stubborn and protective.
