Pre-Med first study/(Ikarus)

[AIKO CHIE WATANABE]

Puts on her best smile

But holds one thousand words

School had been let out an hour ago, Aiko was now walking into the library. Today was the perfect day for a studying with someone, with them being into Pre-Med as well it made it more exciting. Her bags were full of old and new books, also with her notebook and pens. Pencils were okay and everything, but they tended to just smudge way to much. So did pens at times, but that's when you need to use pens that do not just squirt ink. Pencils were also to easily changed with an eraser, eraser shavings get everywhere, ugh it was just a mess. With her pens she had her handy white out liquid, just in case she had to fix anything on paper.

The reason it was a perfect day for this study meeting, was because her after school classes were not today. Most college level classes really, one of them being a language class. The German language was a course she had been wanting to take, she had heard of an excellent study abroad course in Germany, the place she was hoping to go in the future. Wouldn't hurt to learn German, right? Then again French and Latin were always interesting languages. Maybe sometime soon, Aiko thought. She remembered how challenging English was to learn, let alone write and read. Everything seemed to be disorganized or some words had so many different spellings, not to mention different meanings. Maybe learning one new language at a time was best.

Athena was one of her few friends she had a school, her outgoing personality was constantly pushing Aiko's shy personality. As much as she loved hanging out with her, sometimes she would avoid her so she could get back to her studies. Maybe that could be a reason for all the rumors, she thought. She did understand why people would look at her like that, but why fight with the rumors? Everyone all over the school knew them, most she could hope for was people giving her a chance. Well not many connections were probably for the best. Aiko loved Japan, but wanted to leave and study abroad. Knowing many people would just make a good-bye even harder.

The chance to study with someone who was interested in Pre-Med, was quite rare for Aiko. Anyone she knew that wanted to be a doctor, was not as much into it as Aiko was. Athena had mentioned Ikarus and mentioned that he was into Pre-Med as well. Hearing that he had been interested in studying with her, well that was very exciting to hear. After school, Aiko had grabbed all her Pre-Med books. Some being her mother's old books and the rest being new books she had bought. She was hoping that he was bringing other books, possibly interesting articles to read from. She had read a view medical articles, a few were interesting and a few weren't. It was a bit sad when people seemed to be filled with "hot air", a term her mother would use to describe many doctors. Why go into the medical field if you are not fully into it? It just was not right.

Sitting at an empty table, Aiko let her heavy load of bags drop onto the floor. I wish there really was fourth dimensional bags, Aiko thought with a smile. She could just slip so many books into the bag and it will be almost weightless. Sadly that was impossible. With a sigh, Aiko rubbed her shoulders quickly. I wonder when he is supposed to show up, she thought. Aiko quickly pulled out a few Pre-Med books, her notebook, and her pen. Thankfully she had actually finished much of her homework at lunch, she had her usual lunch up on the roof. Was quite peaceful and she was able to concentrate quite well. However she did have a test approaching in German, she could study a bit before Ikarus arrived. Aiko opened her notebook and started to review.

A body was delivered to the morgue right before his shift was supposed to end, resulting in almost an hour’s worth of paperwork. Fortunately, he had had the good sense to take his books with him so he wouldn’t have to stop off at his apartment before heading to the library. He was meeting with a friend of his sister’s, and easily one of the most intelligent people in the whole of the school. He wagered there wasn’t a single person at the high school or college who hadn’t at least heard of Aiko Watanabe. There were often rumors circulating about the girl, but it didn’t seem like anyone was actually an acquaintance of hers, merely spreading rumors for the sake of gossip. Ikarus paid little heed to them, however, as his sister’s insistence that she was a sweet person was really all he needed. And, seeing as most of the other pre-med students were busy competing with one another, he also supposed it was probably a good sign if she had agreed to study with him. Ikarus finally made it to the school, quickly hopping off of his bike and locking it up. He hastened up the stairs to the main floor, and went straight for the elevators. He double checked the text he had from Aiko to know where to meet her. They hadn’t actually met in person yet, but Athena found a picture of her so he would know who to look for. Even without knowing what she looked like, it was easy enough to find her, as she was the only person sitting at a table with a stack of books as tall as she was. “Hello,” Ikarus greeted in a hushed tone, offering a friendly smile, and setting his things down before offering his hand for shakes. “I’m Ikarus. It’s great to finally meet you. Thanks for agreeing to meet with me. This term is starting to get crazy with all of the papers and so forth.” He was babbling because he was nervous, as was often the case around a pretty girl. And not just pretty, but highly intelligent. He sat down across from her and started unloading his small collection of medical and forensic books, which consisted of all of the reading materials he had been able to pack. He had boxes more sitting in his parents’ house, but could not yet afford to have them sent to him. “That is quite a collection you‘ve got.” he complimented, scanning the titles and making mental notes of the ones he would probably order the second he was at a computer. ooc: sorry for the wait!

[AIKO CHIE WATANABE]

Puts on her best smile

But holds one thousand words

Comma here, period here, spelling right? Aiko was thinking. Before she even really thought about it, she realized she was thinking in German. She briefly remembered the a some what friend in her German class, had told her that she was plenty prepared for the test. She was speaking well in German and was already getting top grades in class. Studying was what she did best though, also it made her schedule full. At least mostly, which was how she liked it. If not studying she would most defiantly have her nose in a book. Mostly a romance novel, which she refused to be caught with. Her mother knew of it and often would bring her a new one, every week to be exact.

Still lost in German thoughts, she heard someone start speaking to her. "Oh, hello." Aiko said in German. Blinking really fast, her cheeks turned a light shade of pink. "Sorry, I was lost in my studying for my German test." Aiko said in english and shook her head. After Ikarus sat down and offered to shake hands, she smiled smally and accepted the handshake. "I'm Aiko, and it's no problem at all." Aiko said cheerfully. "I rather like the idea of studying with someone. Many people seem to not want to put in some time, well the the time I put in to it. When you want to leave, don't worry about hurting my feelings. I completely understand." Aiko said.

Might as well state the last bit. Last time she studied with someone who wanted to study, well they were worried about hurting her feelings when they wanted to leave. To much studying for them and wanted to go out for some fun. After this study, she would probably pick up something to eat and go home. Either read or study her German notes some more. If Aiko was at the arcade or the movies, it normally meant a friend had convinced her to come with them. It really was not that hard to convince Aiko either, she tended to be the person that followed more than leaded. However, almost all the time she would run off to go to a after school-class or to run something somewhere. Sadly though, sometimes people took that as her not liking them. Sorry, Aiko would always say and try to explain. Sometimes they understood, sometimes they told her to not worry so much.

"I hope you don't mind me bringing so many books. I have all my mother's old books and books I have bought for myself. I couldn't decide on any to specifically bring." Aiko stated and closed her notebook. A chuckle came from Aiko and a nod. "If you want to borrow some, I don't mind." She added.
