You walked outside onto the campus and waited for Leon. Your shoulder hurt a lot, but you didn't want anyone to worry. Some students glanced over to you. They obviously saw what Enoshima did. You looked down, and waited by the door. Soon enough a familiar red head walked out the door, looking around for you.

"Leon!" you called as Leon was about to walk past you. Leon jumped, and whipped around to face you.

"Oh shit," he said rather loudly, causing a teacher to look over.

"Shut up or the teacher will be watching us for all free period!" you hissed. Leon rubbed the back of his neck.

"Y-Yeah, sorry," he stammered. You smirked. Leon suddenly looked serious. "Hey, are you alright?"

"Yes, why?" you replied.

"Well I heard something about someone pushing you," Leon said. "I was worried you got hurt." You felt your heart beat faster. He was worried about you? That was so nice to hear.

"I'm fine, nothing happened," you lied. You didn't need Leon worrying about you. He had enough to think about with grades and anything that might happen at home. Leon sighed in relief.

"Thank god, I don't know what I-" he cleared his throat mid sentence. "Nevermind. Let's get out of this hellhole." You giggled. Leon gestured you to follow him and be quiet, even though there was a lot of chatter. Probably so you wouldn't look too suspicious. Leon walked towards the gate, and stood next to it by some kids who were playing cards in the grass. You stood next to him.

"There's a teacher watching us," you said as you noticed a fairly young teacher looking in yours and Leon's direction from just outside of the building, quite a distance away. You and Leon pretended to be talking. The teacher eventually looked away, walking off to who knows where. You sighed in relief.

"Let's go before she decides to come back," suggested Leon.

"You're not going anywhere," said a stern voice from behind you. You whipped around to face the young teacher who you noticed just moments before. How in the world did she get across campus so quickly? "You'll be going to the principal's office if you want to talk about ditching. Leon Kuwata, weren't you given detention?" Leon sighed in defeat.

"Yes I was, I'm going," Leon replied. Your mouth opened in shock. He started to walk to the building and looked at you. "RUN!" Before the teacher could react, Leon sprinted to the gate, and you followed. The teacher yelled out in alarm and started chasing you and Leon. Leon was already outside of the gate. You were twenty feet away. Fifteen. Ten. Five.

The teacher grabbed your wrist, and you yanked it quickly out of her hands, and ran out of the gate. Leon was almost a block away. Damn, he was fast. Of course he's fast, he's a SHSL baseball player, and baseball players are fast! He stopped, and turned around as your feet slapped the ground as you came to a stop. You panted and felt annoyed because Leon didn't even break a sweat.

"That was fun," he said, laughing. You paused, before joining in.

"I can't believe we did that!" you exclaimed. Leon raised an eyebrow.

"What, have you ever ditched school before?" Leon asked, surprised.

"No, I'm a good girl!" you replied. "I always do my homework and make it to all my classes on time. I'm glad I was able to do something else for a change."

"Well you're welcome," Leon smirked.

"So what now?" you asked.

"How about we go to a good bakery I know?" Leon suggested. "I don't usually go to bakeries, but I think they're more your speed." You nodded.
