[Life at Yamaku Academy was really strange for Hisao, given he hadn't been there but for a few months - and a lot of things he had been given to try didn't work out so well.

But things took a strange turn when he met another student, who was studying to be a certified nurse - and Hisao found himself under her insistent care. This, in turn, caused him to be better about taking all the dumb medications he had to take every day, and over the course of the months, he had started to get into somewhat better health.

And in his mind, it was thanks to her. As a result of all of this, of course, they'd become friends, but there was a small problem in his mind - he had started to develop feelings for her past the point of friendship. Trying to be a good person, he tried his best to hide those feelings so as not to potentially harm their friendship and their situation, but it was hard.

It was winter now, and that meant all sorts of decorations had to be hung around the school to make it festive. Months ago, Hisao wouldn't have cared that much - but better health improves morale, and he was happy to see the school get into the spirit.

It was morning, and that meant it probably wouldn't be long before Mikan came along to remind him of his morning meds. Since it was a day off of class, though, he had some other plans in mind - maybe it'd be a good idea for them to hang out for the day?]

[There were plenty of people in Yamaku Academy with disabilities and health problems, and for someone as attention-starved as Mikan Tsumiki, it was almost like heaven. It was an awful way to think, and she knew it, so she kept those thoughts quiet. After all, they didn't need her forever. Eventually they'd find their footing, and remember their own medication, and soon she'd have to move on to the next patient.

But Hisao was different. Not because he kept forgetting or just giving up on his medication, but he made an effort towards her that others rarely did. He wanted to know her, talk to her, make her happy. It was strange... but it made her happy.

She tried not to think about it too much. One day, he wouldn't need her either.

Hopefully it wasn't today.

She knocked quietly at his door.]

Hisao...? G-Good morning!

[heart_throb]

[He had gotten dressed already by the time she made it to his dorm, and hearing the knock and her voice, he walked over to the door, opening it to let her in.]

Good morning, Mikan. [Their greetings were routine, at this point, but he was no less happy to see her this morning than he usually was, and he greeted her with a smile.] You doing okay this morning?

[naughty_nurse]

[She bows politely before facing him properly.]

Yes... Everything's been okay so far.

[Then, right away-]

Have you taken your medication?

[heart_throb]

[D'oh.]

Ah, n-not yet. I was about to. [He gets his morning spread of medication ready.]

I was wondering, by the way - do you have any plans today?

[naughty_nurse]

[She blinks, surprised at the sudden topic.]

Eh? ... Um, not really... I don't have any patients who asked for me today.

[heart_throb]

[Taking his medication in small doses between questions, he continues.]

Well, what do you think about taking a walk around? Some fresh air is always good, right? [And, thankfully, it was a beautiful day outside.]

I think it'd help for you to have a relaxing day, too. So what do you say?

[naughty_nurse]

[It's pretty smart of him to word it that way - so she can continue thinking it's for his health, and not about her.]

Oh! Well... Yes, fresh air and exercise is important for people in your condition. It shouldn't be too cold out, either.

[heart_throb]

[The morning routine now finished, he gets a light jacket to put on.]

Yup, so we should definitely get going while we can. Just in case it starts snowing later.

[naughty_nurse]

[Watching him...]

Is there anywhere in particular you wanted to go...?

[heart_throb]

Not really. Just walking around for a bit. [Note to self, find a place to go so the walk doesn't end early.] How about you? Anywhere you'd like to go today?>

[naughty_nurse]

... Maybe the library, if that's okay? I wanted to see if they had something...

[Probably a BOOK, but she seems hesitant to say what kind.]
