Paige looked at the clock as soon as it was time for class to end, slowly she put the book she had chosen back and grabbed her bag and started walking out of the library, she looked along the hallways for hiroku.

Hiroku didn't bother with walking down to the first floor, he just jumped down the center of the spiraling staircase. He walked into the hall the connected the stairs to the way to get to the cafeteria, and saw Paige,"Paige, over here!"

She smiled when she saw him and ran toward him with out thinking she hugged him, "Hi Hiroku!" she laughed.

Hiroku was a little surprised by the hug, but still hugged her back,"How was study hall?"

"Dreadful!" she sighed, "how was your class, did you think too much?" she smirked.

Hiroku started to blush, but quickly turned away," My class was just plain boring."

She laughed at him, "i hope that horrible kid from my studyhall isnt in our lunch, pff 'doll face' who says that?!"

Hiroku turned around to face Paige again,"Someone called you 'doll face'? Wow, well what ever, let's just get to lunch."

Hiroku grabbed Paige's hand and started walking to the lunch room with her.

She blushed when he grabbed her hand but smiled, "yeah and then he told me i was playing hard to get" she laughed alittle.

"What did you do?" Hiroku asked curiously.

"well after he pulled my hair like five times, i told him i was going to throw him across the room if he did it again" she smiled at him.

"He backed off after that?" Hiroku asked as he held open the lunch room door for Paige.

She walked through, "well he finally walked away after saying, 'your just playing hard to get, besides its not like you have a man in the first place' " She looked at Hiroku

Hiroku looked back at Paige,"So, should I take that as a hint?" he asked playfully.

"only if you want to" she laughed, she tipped her head and reached out and poked him then turned and ran alittle ways, "hahaha i poked you!" she laughed playfully

"Oi vey, really?" Hiroku followed Paige to the line to get lunch.

Paige wasnt hungry she poked Hiroku playfully again and went to find a seat.
as soon as she sat down the boy from her studyhall came up, "i knew you'd come around doll face"
paige growled and looked at the line at Hiroku willing the line to move faster.
"Hey! doll face look at me not at the line for one of your girly friends!"

Hiroku looked over at Paige and saw some guy harassing her, so he walked over to them,"Hi, I'm Hiroku and you are?"

paige growled as the boy put his arm around her, "hey man, back off this doll face is mine"
"YOURS!" paige yelled in disbelief, she got up and ran over to Hiroku and hugged him, "i dont like him Hiroku!"

"Well that problem can be easily solved." Hiroku starts to crack his knuckles as a small threat.

The boy gets up and tries to grab Paiges hand but she wraps her arms around hirokus waist. "go away i dont like you!" Paige wailed, in a way she sounded like a kid, but to people it was cute.

Hiroku grabbed the boys arm and twisted it so that his back was to Hiroku and Paige, and he slowly lifted it further up his spine,"Dude, this has got to be hurting you."

The boy yelled, "Let go!"

Paige stared in amazement she turned her head so she was looking at Hiroku's face, she turned it back to the boy

Hiroku kicked the boy in the ass and let go at the same time, he laughed as the boy ran his own gut into the table.

paige hugged Hiroku, "Thank you Hiroku!"
