[Hajime pov]

"Wakey-Wakey Kanade-san..." I sigh
The blonde-haired girl opened her eyes.

"Banchou.... Morning..." Her face was red and burning from her sickness, which I ended up giving to her.

*I put a cold washcloth on her forehead.*

"Please relax..." I told her.

Kanade-san laughed, which perplexed me. "What's so funny?" I question

"You realize you are ditching class for me?" She asks

"Yeah, but I got you sick..."

Kanade-san laughed some more, confusing me again. "You're so sweet." She mumbles

"You took care of me, so I'm returning the favor, Jackass!" I shout at her.

"You are a huge softie." She giggles

"Ugh, anyway, do you want something to eat? I kind of have to order something because I'm not much of a cook," I tell her.

"Anything is fine..." She responds

She was so passive, it was kind of nice not to be soothed by her.

I ordered some food and then looked at her and said, "Anything you need?" I question

Kanade-san gave me a side eye and smiled. "Change me into pajamas." She said

"What? Aren't you wearing pajamas?" I ask

"I-No!" She abruptly shouts

She clearly was lying, but then again, I want to help her. I did get her sick, and I made her change me and wipe my body down.

"Fine..." I mutter

As soon as we began the process of taking her close, she began to squirm, like she didn't want me to change her. "Hold still!" I shout at her, noticing how red her face had gotten, way worse than it was before.

"Your fever is bad!" I say it with worry.

"No, it isn't my fever," she replied.

"Then why is your face red?"

"I just... am embarrassed for you to see me naked," she explained.

"Huh, yeah, I suppose you wouldn't be wearing any underwear. I didn't expect it from you, though," I comment.

"I prefer to be comfortable in bed!" Kanade-san shouts

"I get it, but please let me change you. You're being difficult, and I'd prefer you not be like this!"

Kanade-san nods and lets me take off her shirt, revealing she did have something underneath and was just teasing me.

"Did I get your hopes up?" She coughs

"Nope..." I respond, ignoring the throbbing sensation being made by my heart at the moment.

"Are you sure, Banchou?" She asks

I glared at her as she practically berated me over and over again with pokes. I bit my lip and said, "Knock it off!" I shouted, causing her to jump a bit, but then I realized she was still a sweaty mess. "Undress fully..." I sigh

She nods "understood," clearly being more agreeable with me. As soon as she was fully stripped, I began to wipe her body down, and then I began to dress her in new pajamas.

"Thank you, Banchou..." She groans

"Are you achey? Do you feel chills? Are you hot? Are you-"

Kanade-san cut me off. "You are a softie," she said once again.
