Reynold High

school's nursery

"I'm fine"Blaze said, but his classmate still insisted that he goes to the nursery.

"You're bleeding!"Vanessa said.

"It's not that bad"Blaze reasoned.

"Doesn't matter"She replied.

"You sound like a nagging mom"Tony mumbled.

"Do I look like I care Tony- tanony?"She huffed while pulling the two of them towards the nursery. "Besides, it's your fault that Blaze got hurt!"

"I got hurt too, you know?"

"That's your own fault"

"Wow. How fair"He said with sarcasm in his voice.

She rolled her eyes and knocked on the nursery's door.

"Come in!"

"Now behave, both of you."Vanessa said as she dragged them inside.

"Just as I thought that I would be free from scolding if Gempa wasn't near.."Blaze thought and sighed in defeat.

"Hi Naomi"Vanessa greeted.

"Hey Vanny"The girl with a school uniform said.

"Huh? I thought that there weren't any uniforms required?"Blaze said in confusion.

"There isn't, I just prefer to wear one"She smiled, revealing her dimple. "How can I help today?"

"This two idiots did something reckless and ended up getting hurt"Vanessa explained.

"It's just a scratch"Tony corrected.

"Deep enough for it to bleed"Vanessa stated as she pointed at Blaze's knees.

"I'm fine though.."Blaze said.

"No, you're not"She pushed him to a chair, forcing him to sit on it while she pinched Tony's ear, preventing him from escaping and punishing him at the same time.

"Ouch! Vannnnn!"Tony whined, but Vanessa didn't give him any reaction.

"A bandage and you're fine to go!"Lola said and searched for one in a cabinet, her caramel brown hair swinging behind her back.

"Oh shoot!"Vanessa said as she looked at her watch. "I need to go, can you take care of them?"

"We're not a child"Blaze and Tony said unisono.

She ignored them and waited for Naomi's nod of agreement before she left.

"I hate this.."Tony whispered to Blaze.

"Me too.."He whispered back.

Another knock was heard as Naomi was treating them. "Come in!"

"Oh, Lily hello"Naomi smiled at her. "Where's Scarlett?"

"Sissy is sick today.."She said, her voice barely audible, but Naomi was still able to hear her.

"I see, then I assume that you want to cancel today's session?"She guessed.

"A session??"Blaze asked.

Tony nudged him on the arm with his ellbow and shushed him. "Don't mind him"He spoke in a gentle tone which was the contrast to his usual voice.

"It's okay.."Lily whispered. "I don't mind.."

"Are you sure sweety?"Naomi asked and waited for her nod. "Okay, then."She looked back at Blaze. "You see, I'm not only in charge for the physical pain, but also mental pain. I also give therapy"

"Oh.. I'm sorry for asking.."Blaze said to Lily, his voice was as sincere as it can be.

"I don't mind.."She replied, then her attention went back to Naomi. "But I didn't came here to cancel today's session.."

"Oh?"Naomi's hazel eyes widen in surprise. "That's new. Are you sure that you don't want to wait until Scarlett is back?"

"No.. I promised sissy to go.."

"I see"She patted her head while smiling warmly. "What a brave little one, I'm sure that Scarlett will be proud of you"

Lily's eyes sparkled with anticipation as she nodded, like a child excited to get praised by their parents.

"She reminds me of Thorn"Blaze thought and couldn't help but smile. "Adorable"

After the two troublemakers were treated, they were finally able to leave the nursery.

"Finally!"Tony sighed in relief. "I can't believe Vanessa brought us here because of a scrath!"

"Right? It's not even that bad!"Blaze agreed.

"Oh well"He smirked with a hint micheviousness in his eyes. "Wanna try skipping class again?"

"Hell yeah!"Blaze returned the smile.
