      'We found a few scouts tonight and wiped them out without a problem.... I guess it's because I got to sleep today... Kid has a cousin that moved into town, I just met her today, but I feel as if she knows me... Anyway I need finish my route... Goodnight Cora-San.'

You blush a bit pulling the blanket over your face. Well it sounded like he liked you at least. A smile comes to your lips. "Glad to help..." You murmur.

Even though you tried to go to sleep after that, you simply couldn't. With a quiet sigh, you get up and go to the window and open it leaning out to look at the sky, pausing when you catch someone walking on the sidewalk, he stops too, looking up at you.

"Law..." You huff in surprise and blush ducking slightly.

"___? What are you doing up?" He inquires curious.

"Can't sleep, why are you wandering around at two in the morning" You shoot back. He shifts and rubs his neck.

"Taking a walk because I can't sleep... Hold on," he says. You blink and raise an eyebrow as he goes to the tree near your window and climbs up to the branch that reach out next to your window. He offers a smirk while you blush more.

"Isn't that dangerous?" You ask, glancing at the branch worried. He shrugs.

"It's the least of my worries... Is there I can do to help you sleep?" He asks.

"Why... Why do you want to help me? Shouldn't you be heading home?" You ask.

"Because you gave me that pillow earlier so I could sleep, I only wish to return the favor." He breathes.

"But now you won't be sleeping because of--" He puts a finger to your lip, making you blush.

"I know... I'll tell you a bed time story... Go lay down." He instructs. You actually felt happy when he said that, and did so. He waits for you to settle in before starting the story.

He was half way done when he saw you drift off to sleep. He smiles and closes your window softly. "Sleep well, ___."

Kid peers into the kitchen with a slight shocked face, watching you cook happily and sing quietly with a bright smile on your lips. He carefully goes to the front door and opens it before Killer could knock. The blond raises an eyebrow at him as Kid shushes him quietly before signaling him to follow.

Killer follows him to the door way of the kitchen and peers in with him as you sing happily, making the plates. "Is she okay?" Killer whispers.

"I never seen her like this." He responds quietly. You turn around and spot them.

"Oh, good morning you two! Breakfast is ready!" You smile happily setting down the plates. Killer blushes lightly and sits down to eat. Kid shifts and goes to the bathroom before returning with a thermometer and putting it to your lips.

"Under tongue." He instructs. You sweatdrop but do so. He waits to see your temperature before taking it out. "I'll kick your ass if you're on drugs." He warns.

"I'm not!" You huff pushing him lightly. "Sit down and eat your breakfast or I'll kick your ass." You respond. He pauses and chuckles before doing so.

"Sorry, it's just odd seeing you all happy this early." He comments.

"I had a nice night." You shrug with a small smile.

"Okay then..." Kid murmurs watching you carefully as you eat.

You finish and get up, "Hurry up, I'll be on the bike!" You chime before heading out.

"What's going on with her?"

"I think... I think she likes someone at school." Killer murmurs.

"I'll beat them to a pulp!" Kid rumbles getting up.

You sit on the back of Kids motorcycle, humming to yourself cheerfully. You pause and look over as something moves in the corner of your eye. A black shape peered at you from behind a building. You felt an uneasy shiver claw your spine.

"Alright cuz let's- You okay?" Kid asks making you blink and look at him.

"Yeah, let's go." You smile before looking back at the thing to see nothing. You frown and try to shrug it off as Kid wakes the motorcycle beneath you and rides off to school.

"___?" His voice makes you blink at the track before looking over at him.

"O-oh, hey Law!" You smile with a light blush. He returns a smirk.

"You okay? The coach has been yelling at you this whole time." He tells you. There's a pause and you suddenly hear coach Garp yelling for you to hurry up.

"Oops... I'm fine..." You chuckle sheepishly. Law gives you a concerned look.

"Are you really okay?" He inquires. You look at him for a few moments.

"I thought I saw something this morning, watching me... Sent chills down my spine... That doesn't happen to me often.." You admit quietly. He stops and turns you to him.

"Are you sure?" He asks seriously. You swallow and nod.

"I felt it watching me Law. Then I saw it... Big and dark..." You murmur with a slight shiver.

"Don't worry about it," He offers a smile, "It won't get you."

"Law? How do you know?"

"I just know... So trust me."
