You awoke to your math papers on your desk filled with all your answers and what not. You sighed and rested your head on your table again, "Senku..." you whispered, closing your eyes and calming down your breaths.

"Senku..."

"Hmm..?"

Senku awoke to a familiar groggy voice calling out his name. He opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling, his bamboo muzzle still pressed against his lips. "Y/n..?" he calls out, removing his muzzle and smacking his lips and rubbing his parched throat. You smiled at his reply, sighing in relief.

"What's wrong, love?" asks Senku, sitting up from his bed and stretching his body. You shook your head, "nothing important... I just missed your voice..." you say, arranging your papers and putting them in a brown envelope to send over to your teacher.

Senku walks out the Generals' quarters and made his way to the sink and wash his muzzle, then making his way to Francois's bar and asked for water. He made sure to cover himself up so the Sun won't kill him.

"Uh... a wo-a flease..." he asks, facepalming as he heard you giggle at how he sounds with his muzzle on.

Senku rolled his eyes to which Francois laughs at silently, "here you go, Master Senku," he says, handing his water in a glass cup with a straw.

Senku nods as a thanks and takes off his muzzle, sipping on the clear liquid as he sighs in relief. "'A wo-a flease...' Gosh, what the heck," you say, giggling in what Senku addresses a cute manner.

Sense smacks his lips and smiles. "So, how's things there?" he asks, rubbing his belly that was aching as he stared at nothing.

You shook your head, "nothing much, though I need to explain to you why I haven't been contacting you for a while. You deserve an explanation..." you say, walking over to your door while limping.

Senku sighed and smiled, drinking the rest of his water. "I didn't ask for an explanation but sure, why not? I'm curious after all... And Francois, go get some rest. You served well yesterday and last night," says Senku, walking back to the Generals' quarters. Francois gave a respectful bow to the young gentleman, "thank you, Master Senku."

"Uh-huh, now go before you make me feel bad..."

"Yes Master Senku, thank you again."

You take your skateboard with you because you feel your legs getting jelly when you just think about even jogging over to the Post Office, so you had come to the decision to skate all the way there. "So... I have been training my ass off these past weeks and it was like Hell on Earth," you say, rubbing your neck and cracking it. Senku raised a brow, "really? I've been training too," he laughed.

You put on your shoes and skate all the way to the field outside, letting Lesley know of your whereabouts before you go.

"What kind of training have you been doing?" you asked. Senku replied, "all training regimens astronauts do as well as athletes. Even now as a demon, my body still aches..."

You scanned around for her face to see her with Lavender, having her scratches treated. You waved hi to the two and asked for Lesley's permission to go to the Post Office, alone if possible.

"That's alright by me, Y/n. You can take one of the motorcycles if you don't want to tire yourself. Don't worry, I had a driver's license made for you after your driving test," says Lesley, taking out her book of cards and picking out the one that now belonged in your possession.
