Courtyard!

A stretch of the courtyard

Akimi sighs and walks into the courtyard

Zero sighs and sits on a bench.

Akimi practices with the knife.

Zero sits on the bench completely absorbed in the book he's reading.

Akimi accidentally cuts herself, "O-Ow!"

Zero sniffs the air and looks to Akimi, "Baka.."

Akimi looks at him, "What do you exspect? I shoud never have been given a blade!" She holds her hand, "That hurt.."

Zero shakes his head and continues to read.

Akimi bangades her hand and pockets the knife.

Zero continues to read still aware of the scent of her blood.

Akimi sits down and sighs, watching the day class student go about their things.

Zero closes his book and watches them as well.

Akimi gets up and trips over her shoelaces. "-///-"

Zero catches her and sighs, "You're such a clutz."

Akimi blushes and looks up, "A-Am not!"

Zero stands her up and dusts her off a bit, "Yeah you are."

Akimi looks away, "I was tripped." she said stubbornly even though noone was near her when she tripped.

"Whatever." Zero walks back to his bench and sits down.

Akimi blushes and bonks him on the head, "What's that supposed to mean?"

Zero appears behind her and breaths on her neck, "Don't try it."

Akimi blushes scarlet. How did he do that?

Zero rests his hands on her hips, "Now, a word from the wise. Don't pick fights with other prefects."

Akimi blushes more, "There's only two perfects though.."

Zero gently kisses her neck, "I say again, don't go picking fights with other prefects...heh...me." He walks back to his bench.
