Firstly, I would like to thank you all for over 300 reads. Okay let's start the story!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In Nagisa's arms I again felt that sensation of safety and I didn't want to give in, I really didn't. It was just too much for me to handle. With everything I've gone through, you would think I was stronger than this.

I clutched Nagisa's uniform and fell to the floor slowly. He fell to the floor with me and held me in his arms for a few minutes. I didn't try to stop the tears as they trailed down my cheek, instead I gave in. For about two minutes. Hun almost immediately, I pulled away from him and stifled my crying.
Nagisa looked at me with a confused and worried expression. I guess he still cares.

"We need to get to class." I attempt to stand up, even with my knees buckling at the slightest movement of them.

"You should go home. Take a day off." He placed a hand on my shoulder and tilted his head to the side.

I smiled and gave him a wary smile, "I'll be fine...but it's nice to know that you care again." I started to remove his hand off I my shoulder, even though it's not what I really wanted.

Walking away, I made sure to pick up the water cup that sometime again was placed by the door side table, and just when I was about to leave the nurse Nagisa called to me, like he did that day. That dreadful day.

"Y/n!" I turned my body slightly, my stomach did not I feel any better than it did when I got up in the morning, but I've learned to deal with hints like this.

After all, if I can't handle a single stomach ache, how in the world was I going to kill that octopus, or better—leave Gakuhō and mom?

Nagisa stopped tight in front of me and caught his breath due to the small sprint he just ran for some reason. He looked to me with a face I couldn't read. It was somewhere between, regret, guilt, and sorrow. That much I could figure, but still...

"I never stopped caring." He said.

"Of course." I smiled warmly—part of it as forced, but the other part wasn't entirely. Hey! Progress right?

"I still think you should go home." Nagisa glanced over at me with worried eyes.

"I thought I told you already!" I grin wildly and skip in front of him, then turn around and continue o walk backwards, "I'm fine."

He let out a sigh and closes his eyes as if accepting the fact that it's useless to persist against me. To be fair though, it is.

"Hey baby back rib. Do you mind if I call you that?" I ask Nagisa, not really caring if he said no.

"Of course I do!"

"But it goes with your attitude and stature." I pout and point at him.

"Okay, and you suck at athletic stuff, but do you here me calling you a couch potato?"

I smiled widely, "no but I would appreciate it if you did."

He sighs again and slides the door to our class open.

We walk in and I see most of the girls eyeing us. Kayno, Kurahashi, Nakumura and Toka. I don't know why they're starting, but it's pretty annoying. I want to give them a glare, but I'm scared to. I mean these really are the only friends I've really ever had, besides Nagisa and Karma I had nobody else. Especially friends that were girls.

I sit down in my seat behind Nakissa and wait for class to begin. Staring at the window became my forte as well as my get away. Watching the clock would only cause trouble and for someone to tell me otherwise has obviously never met someone on my level.

I honestly think the only other person that I've met that was on my IQ level was either got Gakushū or Karma and Shū is my brother so that I do not count. Karma is the next and last person in line. Nagisa, on the other hand never really matched good with me and I'm not being obnoxious.

"Y/n."

"Hmm?" I look forward.

"Please answer this question." Korosensei points to the bored.

I sigh and stand up, dusting off my uniform. I feel Nagisa's eyes on The back of me, but to be fair I felt everyone else's eyes on me too. I take the talk from Korosensei and look up the problem that I am tasked with.

After going over the problem a couple of times in my head I gasp as I come to one final conclusion. I don't know shit about this problem.

I began to sweat nervously, the marker in my hand fidgeting.

"A problem? Y/n." That yellow slime calls. I hear the twinge of knowingness in his voice and grip the marker tightly, forcing an angry smile on my face as an irk mark pops onto my fro head while eyeing him.

I heard a few giggles, but one in particular caught my attention.

"Just what are you laughing at you Blueberry Muffin!?" I glare at Nagisa as he pulls his hand over his mouth to contain his laughter.

"It's just....I've never seen....you so lost...." he says in between spurts of giggles.

The irk mark grows bigger as I storm over to him and hand out the pice of chalk in my palm. "Then you do it if your so smart."

I impatiently waited as Nagisa made his way up to the board and I followed. With a simple swift motion of his wrist, Nagisa manage to complete the problem in a minute or less.

My eyes widened and my mouth agape.

"Guess I've passed your "IQ level"." Nagisa quotes with his hands.

"This can't be!" I shout, enraged at how some sickly E class student knows more than me.

"Maybe you should pay attention for the coming up exam." Korosensei's smile fired me up even more.

Then a slick smirk came onto my face, "school just started, we don't start studying for exams until a few more months." I pounded my foot on the floor, like a rabbit.

"Nfufufnufnufu for the schools exam, not for mine." He says.

"That's blasphemy!" I argued, pointing with my index finger.

"And if you fail..." he started as I continued to shout over him about how unreasonable and mostly, unrealistic it is that we have to study for exams in the first week of school...because I already have to deal with that at home.

"I get to choose someone to drop a bucket of ice water on top of your head wearing nothing but a T-shirt."

My face retorted back, so if Nagisa fails, I watch or hopefully be the one pouring cold ice water on top of his head?

"Okay, fine." I said and sat back down.

"Be careful what you agreen to Y/n."

"Because people can always call you back on it." I roll my eyes as I've heard the saying a thousand times from father.
