A GIRL IN MY ROOM

I walked into the room and looked around. There was a wall clock hanging up, just beside the kitchen, which was behind the door. Walking to the other door, I saw opposite the kitchen, the bathroom. There was some shampoo and stuff, but I didn't mind. There were girls clothes hanging everywhere, but still, I didn't mind. There was food in the kitchen, but still, I didn't mind. The girl could have left it when she left. Mira said she left the school. 

 

I filled out the form; there were some trick questions that I didn't fully understand, so I skipped them. With that, I packed the clothes that were on the bed close to the window so I could have a view of the school at night. It was less busy, but there were still some students who were around.

 

I took off my clothes, took a bath, and laid down on the bed. This was the first time in four years that I had slept on a bed. 

 

Usually, we lie on a blanket in the big hall, so everybody sleeps together. It was always hot at night, especially in the summer, so I took off my clothes even though Megumin tried to stop me. I sat up on the bed, with the window close to me. I felt the night air; it was cool and gentle. I stayed by the window, just looking at the sky, until I dozed off.

 

I woke up feeling refreshed and hungry. I didn't eat anything throughout yesterday.

 

I was thinking of what to eat when I noticed a girl sleeping beside me. She was in a transparent nightgown, and I could see her pants and she had a cat tail that was wagging gently . Oh no, sights like this are what make my nose bleed. I stood up quickly before she woke up. I thought Mira said there was no one living in this room; were they trying to set me up or wait? I now know this is a test; that's the only explanation. She woke up and looked at me.

 

"Wha... what... what are you doing in my room?" She asked surprisingly, Now this is bad; if someone sees us now, they will think differently because I'm wearing nothing but my boxers while she's wearing a sexy night gown.

 

"Please, don't panic," I plead, trying to calm her down. "This is just a misunderstanding."

 

"Wha... what did you... what did you do to me?"

 

"WHAT???!!!!!!" I shouted; I know what she is referring to. "No, I'll never do that."

 

"Then, why are you naked? What were you trying to do?"

 

Just then, Yaze opened the door. "Kakashi, I got some clothes; you can wear them for the..." Oh my goodness, Yaze saw us. I tried to explain to him, but he refused to listen. "Don't worry, I understand."

 

"You do?" I asked.

"Of course, I didn't know you were also a pervert."

 

"No, that's not it," Yaze said with a smile before leaving. I will explain it to him later. A pervert, what does he mean by that? I bow my head to her.

 

"I'm not trying to do anything. Please, I'll leave  then." I took off my clothes and tried to put on my trousers, but she held my hand.

 

"Where do you think you're going? You can't just leave me; you have to take responsibility."

 

"Responsibility??!!!!!! , For what exactly?"

"For our child, you can't just leave me after we have fun."

 

"Please let go of me; I'm just fifteen years old, and there is no way you are pregnant." I pushed her away, took a red shirt and a black trouser with a pair of shoes, and took my admission form before running out of the room.

"Natski, please you have to consider" I plead with Natski. "Can't I change my roommate?"

 

"No, we can't, Kakashi. Your roommate is your teammate, and we can't just change your teammate because you asked. Ayaka, do you want to change your teammate?" She asked her, and she shook her head in disagreement. "You see, so we can't just change the rules because you don't want her as your roommate."

 

"Does that mean I'm stuck with her until I leave this school?" I was disappointed.

 

"Kakashi, this is your teammate, Ayaka Kamisato. You'll both go on missions and support each other to the best of your ability, and with time you'll both get to know each other" Natski announced. "But there is another way around it."

 

"There is?"

 

"As a matter of fact, there is. But you have to work hard to be made an executioner; that way you can have a new teammate, or if you can work hard and be promoted to 1st class mage, then you won't need a teammate."

 

"Okay, how do I get started?" I asked hurriedly.

 

"Just submit the form, and Mira will explain everything to you."

 

I handed the form to her, and she assured me that she's going to fill in the rest. She asked Mira to accompany me back to my room and explain to the girl in my room. On our way back, I asked Mira about what her mom said.

 

"The school is the result of the alliance the supernatural made with humans. The school is located all over the world and accepts all kinds of people, including witches and alchemists."

 

"Wait, you mean witches exist? I thought they were wiped out decades ago; at least that's what they told us at the lab."

 

"Yes, they were killed back then, but after the alliance, it's stopped. As I was saying, since we grow slower than humans, we use the exchange program so we can graduate from school at the appropriate age. The exchange program is a tournament held between all ACE Academies around the world; it helps to check the abilities of students and offer admission to other ACE Academies around the world, but you have to be chosen."

 

"But what's in it for the school?"

 

"Well, you being there helps the school get more jobs from the government, which increases the school's revenue. But the student gets an increase in salary and maybe a promotion, but it's based on your skills."

 

"You mean the more exchange programs I participate in, the more I can get promoted?" I asked.

"Yes, and don't forget the salary. If you get promoted, you can get access to authorize information."

 

"What do you mean by authorize information?"

 

"Information no one can access," she answered.

 

"Does this mean I can find my sister?" I said to myself happily.

 

"Did you say something, Kakashi?"

 

"No, nothing. I know what to do," I said seriously.

 

I remembered that Elizabeth came yesterday; she was supposed to come back today.

 

"Mira, I'm going back to your mom's office," I informed her, and she asked me why.

 

"I have someone to meet, and I'm going to inform her that I will be in the next exchange program."
