~Normal POV

"Why is this class so stupidly boring?"

"Because this school insists on killing its students with useless knowledge," Isadora replied flipping through her notes.

Klaus chuckled, "Oh so that's why the school motto is, 'Remember you will die.'"

Isadora giggled, "You got that right."

The two were studying for another boring measurement quiz in the orphan shack. Sunny was still in the administrative office to finish her work day, and Violet and Duncan were off together somewhere. This left Klaus and Isadora alone for a while. Isadora was trying to help Klaus remember facts for their upcoming quiz. He had a photographic memory, but he was having trouble focusing on the material for some reason. What she didn't know was that she was the reason he wasn't able to focus. Klaus was very intelligent, but his normally genius brain went haywire around Isadora. She was so lovely and wonderful, he couldn't help it.

Isadora glanced at her handsome researcher friend and smirked as an idea fell into her head. It was a very sneaky idea but it should help Klaus remember what he needed to for their test. And it'd be fun for her too if he did it right.

"I have an idea..." The way she said it just made him curious to know what she had planned. "How about we play a little game? I'll ask you ten questions and if you can answer all of them correctly, I'll give you a reward."

Klaus smiled at her. "Uh, ok; but what kind of reward do I get?"

Her smirk grew as she replied, "I'll give you a kiss."

He blushed darkly behind his glasses and started stammering; unable to string together a sentence. Isadora fought to hold back laughing. He was so cute when he's all flustered. Nonetheless, he took a deep breath and agreed to play her game.

"Ok first question." She opened her pitch black notebook. "What was the length in centimeters of the blue scarf that we had to measure together?"

"152.4 centimeters."

"That's right," She replied, "But you have to get all the questions right to get your prize."

So their game continued; and Klaus seemed to gain a vast amount of knowledge out of nowhere because he answered every question right down to the last decimal number in some cases. Surprisingly, Mrs. Bass wasn't as strict about such precise measurements.

"Ok, last question. How long was the yellow model car in centimeters?"

"16.78 centimeters."

Isadora checked her notes and frowned. "I...I'm sorry Klaus that's wrong. It was 17.78..."

Klaus frowned. "Oh..."

Isadora closed her notebook. "I'm sorry. You got almost all of them though so you'll still pass the test."

"He's so disappointed..."

Klaus gave her a small, shy smile; one of those smiles she loved so much. "I... um... I was kind of... I was really... I wanted that kiss..." He looked embarrassed and quietly looked away from her to hide the evident red on his cheeks.

She thought for a moment before smiling as another idea hit her. She moved closer to him from her position on his hay bale.

"Well you did get 9 out of 10... I suppose that should get you something at least."

When he looked at her again she leaned over and kissed him on the cheek. If it was possible, his face got even redder and he stared at her with wide eyes. He then fell back on the hay bale and narrowly missed hitting the wall behind him.

"Klaus?!"

He had fainted.

Isadora, while still very concerned about him, found herself holding back giggles.

"He must have really wanted that kiss. Well... if he gets a good grade on his test I'll consider giving him a real one."

~The End!

Just something short and cute that I wanted to write! Bye!
