"Uh… 59… And 28." I said, writing down the answers.

It was Thursday and tests were just about over, I couldn't wait to finally relax. I handed in my test half an hour later, sighing.

"Hmm… I wonder how Eevee was doing." I thought.

Before taking the tests, I drank a lot of fruit water, for some reason. And the overwhelming feeling washed over me. Quickly asking, I walked out.

Walking to the bathrooms, I felt a little off. It was creepy walking in these hallways with no one, so I always felt watched. That or the school is haunted. And after exiting the restroom, I started back to class. But like clockwork, Eevee was walking to the place I came from. Still a bit down, and she wasn't her cheerful self. Not wanting to ignore her, I let out a short.

"Hey." Walking pass her.

She didn't reply, just continued walking. I was worried for her, I just didn't want to get involve.

The rest of class went normal, just sitting talking. And once the test was over, I left to my locker. As I was grabbing my stuff for the walk home, I was interrupted by Shinx, tapping my back. Turning around, I gave him a cold expression.

"Yes?" I asked, nothing in my voice.

"So Friday is tomorrow huh? I'm so glad for tests to be done. Wanna do something? How bout pizza or something?" He said.

He sounded so normal, it kinda annoyed me.

"Sorry, I got something to do." Closing my locker, and walking away.

I ended up just going home, I didn't want to do anything anyways. So I spent the day inside, watching TV and playing games. Passing out shortly after.

It was around 7:25AM when I awoke.

"Well… Finally day of tests..." I thought, getting up.

Hoping in the shower, I continuously thought of what to do, after tests it will be a four day weekend. While I was washing myself, I heard knocking coming from the door.

"Yeah?" I called out.

"Riolu, you should get going. You've been in there for like half an hour." My mother replied.

Looking at the clock in the bathroom, it was 8:05. I was shocked, I completely forgot about the time. So I quickly dried myself off, and got dressed.

Rushing out, nearly face planting running down the stairs, I made my way to school.

I made it with just a minute to spear, I sat down in my class. Out of breath, and tired. Sylveon handed out the test, and I quickly finished it, as I turned it in forty minutes later. I pulled out a book, and passed the time. And before I knew it, launch was here. I was starving, not able to eat at home, and missing breakfast in school. Packing my stuff, I made my way to the launch room. Gladly getting some spice berries, and noodles, I sat down.

While eating, there was a sudden sense of someone sitting next to me. Peeking from the corner of my eye, I noticed it was Eevee. Cleaning myself, I turned towards Eevee.

"Hey, Eevee." I said.

"Hey..." She replied.

"So, uh. Nice day today, huh?" I tried making conversion.

"Uh-huh. Riolu, can I tell you something?" She said.

"Sure." I simply replied.

She took a sip from her juice box, and sighed.

"Wanna do something today…?" She bluntly said.

"Me? I… I guess so, got nothing planned today anyways." I replied.

She smiled a bit, the first time since two days.

"Thanks, I just want to talk and stuff." She replied.

We continued eating, in silence. Once the bell rung, I got up and Eevee thanked me again. Saying we'll meet at the school entrance. The last couple of classes weren't special, just more tests. And once the end of the day arrived, I handed in my test, and rushed outside. Finally getting fresh air after sitting in a class for the last three hours. Standing next to the entrance, Eevee walked up five minutes later. I tried rising her spirits with a warm smile. She waved and walked up to me.

"Shall we get going?" I asked, as we walked down the sidewalk.

We walked around frozen park, just chatting about stuff, as I tried making her feel better. After walking around, we stopped at a nearby store. Just getting some drinks, we walked towards emerald city.

"We should go to crystal city. It looks pretty during this time." Eevee said, sounding normal.

"It's 7:10PM. Guess the sunset would make the city sparkle. Maybe next time?" I replied.

"Sure thing. Hey… Thanks for being with me today, I needed to clear my head." She said back.

"No problem, I'm always open. So don't worry about asking." I replied, smiling.

She smiled, and out of nowhere gave me a small hug. I hugged her back, and we said goodbye, as I opened my door. As I walked through the door, my mother called my over instantly. I walked over, concerned.

"Yes…?" I asked.

"So tests are over? Do you think you did good?" She asked back.

"I believe so." I replied.

"Perfect, your father called today. He said if you did good, he'll send you something." She said back.

"Really? I wonder what it is, if I did do good." I replied.

"Who knows. Oh, and one more thing, I have stuff to do tomorrow. Do you think you can drop your little sister off at her friends?" She said.

"Hmm… Sure. Anyways, I'm gotta get ready for dinner." I replied, walking upstairs.

The rest of the night went smoothly. Ate, played, and sleep. Pretty much the thing I always do when I get home. As I was getting ready for bed, I was still awake for some reason. Just keep having these thoughts about Eevee. How she seemed to really enjoy my company. Like really. Enjoy. My company. It was kinda eerie, but it didn't bother me, she was hurt by Shinx. And probably wanted me as a replacement, it was still kinda off though. But I finally was able to doze off after almost an hour of thinking...
