The blonde haired girl sluggishly gets up from the ground after slowly picking up her stuff and quickly walks away while still whining, leaving me behind on the ground with my stuff scattered.
As she speed-walks away, her school id slowly drifts from her bag landing directly in front of me. I pick up the card and search for her name. 'Usagi Tsukino.'

After the incident with the middle schooler, Usagi Tsukino, I decided to go home earlier than usual. Instead of going straight to the library, I planned on going directly to my house. And maybe, a different way. I decided to do my homework at home.
I started walking down another pathway. On this path, there is a fountain separating neighborhoods and stores. The fountain makes nice and calming noises that could make anyone fall asleep in a blink of an eye.
I rub my eyes as I look at the enticing bench. I haven't realized how tired I've been lately, even though I go to sleep at 19:00. I decided to go to the bench, which is very close to the large fountain. I place down my stuff and wait for the time to pass.
As time passes, slowly, the sounds of the fountain calm me. The bench is nice and comfortable and the jacket I'm wearing makes me feel very warm. Without realizing it, I close my eyes. And soon, I am fast asleep.
Yawning, I slowly opened my eyes to see the boy from yesterday sitting next to me. Not knowing what to do, I stayed frozen in my curled-up position. I realize that I haven't even gone home yet and that I completely aborted my plan of going directly home.
The charcoal-haired boy looked over at me, noticing my awakeness. I feel my face burn with embarrassment. I quickly looked down to prevent him from seeing my flushed face.
"Are you alright?" The boy started. "You were mumbling something in your sleep." He stated. I quickly sat up to look up at him.
"Huh? What was I mumbling?" I asked him. "Something about a silver crystal." The boy mentioned.
"Do you.. know anything about it?" He inquired. I tilted my head to the side in confusion. "It's nothing." He said as his voice trailed off.
"Anyways, now that you are up, we both can go." His jet-black hair paddled in the wind as he stood to get up.
I quickly realized that he was about to leave his jacket on me. "Wait!" I grabbed his hand. He swiftly turns to face me while our hands are locked.
"You were about to leave your jacket.." I mumbled, looking down at my lap, embarrassed as I smoothly moved my hand.
"You can return it to me tomorrow." "Huh?" I say, looking up at him. "Just return it to me tomorrow, nothing more, nothing less." He states as he trails off.
