chapter 6:Takeshi

"AA guess my training paid off...or it was just fluke and luck..." Takeshi said tiredly to himself. He changed into his sleeping attire, and headed straight into his room. As he did, he noticed his cat Blair in the room sitting on his desk while looking at him with a tilted head.

"Sorry Blair-chan, I'm just a bit too tired from what happened tonight. I'm just going to get some sleep. I'm too tired to practice with my magic..." Takeshi muttered sleepily as he collapsed onto his bed and laid his head onto the pillow. He then closed his eyes and let sleep overtake him and let it take away his exhaustion.

He could've sworn that he saw some outline of a woman with cat ears near him before he went to sleep.

(Morning)

For the first time in his morning schedule, Takeshi found himself walking to school at a casual pace this time. Well, considering that he collapsed onto his bed and didn't spend his time training his magic did give him the hours of sleep he needed and the time to wake up.

'So this is what it feels like to just walk to school. It honestly feels less tiring and stressful than my usual mornings...' Takeshi thought to himself with a considering tone. 'Perhaps I do need to sleep a little early...' Takeshi thought to himself.

He soon found himself walking through the school gates at a casual pace. But there was one thing he didn't expect to see once he crossed the gates.

"Hey...isn't that Fuyushima-kun? Doesn't he appear nearly late for school?"

"Yeah...he's actually here before school actually begins..."

"Well that's a shocker..."

Takeshi sweat dropped at the comments he received.

'Did I really gain a reputation based on me almost being late? I didn't know that was even considered special to people at this school...huh...the more you know.' Takeshi thought, not really bothered by their comments. Rather, he just accepted it in a positive manner and just went along with it.

Then again, he did know that the student body of this academy really loved to spread word around and try to make a big deal out of it. Special examples include Yuuto Kiba's princely attitude and Koneko Toujou's cuteness. Infamous included, such as the Perverted Trio, as if that wasn't obvious enough.

"Well this is a surprise Fuyushima-kun." a familiar voice said near Takeshi, causing him to blink and turn towards Souna Shitori. The student council president stood there with a raised eyebrow.

"Oh, Kaichou. Lovely morning, isn't it?" Takeshi simply greeted her with a laid back smile. The young student council president simple folded her arms.

"Yes, I suppose it is..." the young woman said while looking at him with that sharp analytical look of hers. "While it makes me wonder what brought on this change, it seems I won't have to scold you for almost being late. You better keep this change up for the sake of yourself, otherwise you'll make things stressful for both you and me. Best keep that in mind Fuyushima-kun." Souna told him with that usual stern tone of hers as she walked passed him.

"Roger that Kaichou..." Takeshi said with a lazy salute, and made his way to class.

"I guess getting a few more hours of sleep is really good for you..."

(Classroom)

After finishing class, Takeshi just sighed as he leaned back on his chair. As he leaned backwards, he was met with the sight of a pair of large breasts once again. He blinked a bit, before recognizing who it was.

"Oh, Kiyome-chan." Takeshi greeted his childhood friend. The young woman simply sighed at him.

"Normally, I would yell at you to stop calling me that, but there is something more important." Kiyome said while sighing. She then recognized the position they're in, and she blushed as she backed up away from him.

"Do you mind?" Kiyome asked him with an embarrassed tone. Takeshi simply shrugged at her.

"Hey, you were the one who walked in on me while I was in that position." Takeshi responded, causing Kiyome to childishly glare at him, but just coughed to hide her blush.

"Anyways..." Kiyome said, trying to having the topic back in focus. "Thanks to the rumor system in this academy, I caught wind that you actually came to school without burning your shoes." Kiyome told him with a raised eyebrow. Takeshi rose up from his position nodded at her.

"I know, right? Even I'm surprised with myself..." Takeshi commented while a thoughtful look as he eased his body onto the desk and slouched on it with his arms crossed and head on top.

"So what brought this sudden change?" Kiyome asked curiously with a raised eyebrow. Takeshi simply shrugged at her, and figured that his childhood friend will ask that sort of question.

"Oh, something really big came up, and it required my attention and effort. So by the end of it, I ended up exhausted and crashed right into bed." Takeshi answered her, causing Kiyome to frown at him as she folded her arms underneath her large breasts.

"What kind of event?" Kiyome questioned, causing Takeshi to simply scratch the back of his head.

"Well, after I finished having dinner at my favorite sushi restaurant, I noticed that it was almost late, so I took a shortcut through the park." Takeshi told her, making Kiyome blink upon what he just said.

"Wait, isn't that the time where couples usually do their own activities there?" Kiyome pointed out. Takeshi nodded at her."Yeah, but I was lucky that no couple was there last night. However, I managed to come across an injured man who unfortunately had an accident happen upon him. I think it was a skateboard accident if I remember correctly..." Takeshi said while successfully playing a bit ignorant to the story he manage create. It was technically true with last night's events, minus the skateboard detail part.

"I see..."

"So after that, I ended up calling 119 and had to stay with the poor guy to make sure he's alright. Thankfully, help arrive right on time and took him away." Takeshi explained, once again creating a story similar to Issei and Rias coming in to help.
