Principal Asa has a slow way of explaining things that I really appreciate, because all this information feels like it's going in one ear and out the other.

There are about two dozen documents to read over and fill out. Forma to get me back into my classes, authorization for a school iD, cafeteria account information, classes to sign up for.

It's all so confusing.

"Will kenma still be on track to graduate?" I can tell Sakai is watching his pronoun use, which I appreciate more than he probably realizes.

"We won't know until we get his transcripts and grades, but I'm guessing he will be. Our school system operates similarly to his former one."

His

No, I can't be angry, or upset. This was my choice, and that isn't allowed, not right now.

"How soon could I start?" I ask.

"Tomorrow If you wanted, provided the papers are faxed over in a timely manner. Thankfully it's the start of a new semester, so you won't have too much trouble catching up in your classes."

"Kenma's a smart kid." Sakai pats my shoulder. I want to take the compliment, but we've known each other for all of about two hours in total now.

"So, what do u say, kenma? Would you be okay with that?" Principal Asa asks me.

I nod. "Yeah."

"Good." She pulls out a manila folder and stuffs inside all the paper she's laid out for me. "If you two want to review the documents real quick, fill them out, and just sign where each page tells you.

"Come on, we'll go to the teachers lounge, should be empty." Sakai takes the folder.

"Oh and, Sakai? Can you send in shoyo, please?" Principal Asa asks.

"Sure thing." Sakai holds the door to the office for me.

"Shoyo, Mrs. Asa is ready for you now." Shoyo's typing away on his phone when Sakai call for him.

He gives Sakai a mock salute and jumps out of his seat, giving me a smirk and a wink as we cross paths. Yep. He's definitely taller then me, at least a full head, and maybe more, he's probably packing too. I try to smile back, but I'm sure it comes off as creepy more than anything else. I follow Sakai down the hallway to a door just outside what looks like an empty cafeteria. He types a code into this keypad, and there's a distance click before he pushes it open.

A hell of a lot fancier then Nekoma.

Filling out paperwork is even more tedious than it sounds. There are questions I don't know the answers to, some that make me feel totally useless, some I'm worried I'm answering in the wrong way because the wording is confusing. If Sakai wasn't here to help, I would be up a creek. But forty five minutes later, we finish and March right back to principal Asa's office.

"Excellent." Mrs. Asa takes the papers. "And I've contacted your old school, and they're going to fax over the rest of your papers today. I'll call you tonight if there are any problems, Sakai but it looks kenma is Karasuno's newest student." Mrs. Asa sounds way to excited about this, but I guess I should be greatful she didn't turn me down without question.

Sakai puts a hand on my shoulder.

"Thank you," I say.

"Oh, and I've assigned someone to help show you around. Shoyo hinata. He said you two met in the waiting room?"

"Yeah. Sort of."

He's going to meet you here in the office tomorrow morning, so get here a little earlier than you normally would."
