Amanda got up and went to get her and Aishida's egg. She walked carefully back to her desk, expecting him to meet her there. She gave him a bright smile when he finally came over. "Sit down and we can plan. I think we should name her Sarah."
Aishida had watched his partner get up. 'Well...she's pretty enough....but she's an odd one too...if I remember right, she's friends with that hyper kid.' he thought, resigning himself to the girl. His eyes widened with shock at her suggestion.
"Sarah?! Absolutely not. Besides, the egg is a boy." he said, tossing his hair. "We should name him Ando."
"She's a girl and we're naming her SARAH!!!!!" Amanda said, standing up and stomping her foot for emphasis. She was not going to let this boy pick a name for HER egg.
Hikaru felt her face turn a nice shade of red at the suggestions. She got up and got the materials before heading to Andrea's desk, still a bit red in the face, especially at any other jibes from people. "I got the materials....do you have any preference for how to do this project?"
Andy looked up as Hikaru appeared in front of her desk. Noticing the blush, Andy gave a calm smile. "There is no reason to take what people say to heart. It's just for a week and it'll all be over with." She offered a seat nearest her for Hikaru to sit down. "I don't have any preferences. Although, it may be easier if we take turns, in school and out, to take care of the egg. The only time I can't is when I work. We can set up a schedule if it helps make things easier." She tugged on a stay piece of hair before continuing. "Any ideas on what we're going to name it?"
"hmm...how about Mari?" Hikaru asked, trying to think of something cute. "As for a schedule, I'm afraid that might be a little more complicated than you think....I have performances for The Nutcracker Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays for the next month. I also have work at a restraunt, dance lessons and the lessons for dance I teach. And of course school. I could take care of the egg any time during school though."
She took out a little notebook that she wrote down her work schedule and dance schedules. "I did cut out the self-defense classes for the month, so I have a little extra time there....."
She took out a seperate sheet of paper and started to write down times she was available to take care of the egg. "We might have to find a babysitter for the times we're both busy...."
"Andy nodded. "Mari it is." She thought a moment. "If it helps, you can take her during school and I can take her after. I can take her to work with me and try and work her into my costume. At home, she'll be safe too, my cats will probably try to mother her all week...." She let her words trail thoughtfully. "All we'd have to do is decide on a place to meet before and after school each day. Maybe the gate half an hour before school starts and we'll meet directly after last bell?"
Rei looked at the girl in confusion. "I work after school." was the first reply from his mouth. If he got hassled by a junkie trying to get a freebie the egg could get damaged.
"It wouldn't be so bad if I took it home first though since my cousin would be at school and the apartment empty. The only problem though is my bosses I won't be able to go straight home. " Rei tried to think of a way to work this out. "Take a seat and give me a minute." He offered a nearby chair as he looked Okita over. She might be able to convince Shige to let him be late but time was money and junkies were restless. He could loss his clients by the time he made it.
Okita smiled, well at least the guy was a gnetleman. She took the seat and rested her elbow on the desk and her chin on her palm. "Well you know I am taking care of real 'eggs' after school. My sisters are only five so they'll think the egg is food, not my 'child'. Up to what time do you work? Where do you work? My sisters are in school up to six, so I can take it care during that time."
A sweatdrop came down. "Um, you can't leave the egg in your apartment, that'll be considered neglect and I don't want anyone in the class snitching that we're leaving our 'child' in an empty apratment."
She opened her small diary. "How about we name it first?"
"I guess we need to call it something for the grade." Rei said as he stalled a bit before deciding just to be honest. It wasn't his policy to lie to girls so why bother to this one.
"Well first off I go to the coffee shop till about 9-9:30 then my second job on the streets as a dealer. On my days off my boss makes me go out because I am one of his top dealers and make quite a bit of profit and that can last till midnight or 1 in the morning. It sucks but I make up the sleep in class." he answered like his job was a norm for kids his age.
She wrote in neat japanese writing 'Kurama'. She gave Rei a smile. "His name is Kurama."
"Well you're a busy kid, you're lucky enough to actually have a job." She wrote down his schedule. She found his lifestyle normal, her been the mother of her sisters, childhood was just dead nowadays. "Well then you have to take this paper yen and make enough so we can hire a babysitter. Otherwise considered Kurama dead."
Tapping her lip she teased. "You know I don't appreciate my so-call husband been a dealer. It's a bad influence on my child, so for this week you have to work in the coffee shop only. I hope your boss doesn't mind." She may be a girl whose poor struggling not to end up in the streets with her sisters but she was naive to the street laws.
Kazuya looked around for Ryoko trying to remeber what she looked like. The girl wasn't one of his fans so he didn't talk to her much. She might not even be here today so he waited for her to seek him out.
((Oh Okita Rei didn't mind but be careful not to move people around. You made it sound like Rei was already in the class but the problem with that was if someone had a post from earlier in the day and Rei got in trouble and sent home, or just didn't show up for the day, then you would force him to be here again. We had problems with that in the past when a certain character got raped and missed a whole week of school yet someone wrote a post where they went up and talked to her in class...even though she wouldn't have been there. See what I mean.))
Ryoko glared at Kazuya. She had heard plenty about him, mostly from the sluts in the school. She clapped her hands on the desk as she stood up. Figures, he would expect the woman to come to him. Angry, she stormed over to an empty place besides Kazuya. "Listen up, Nakamura. I am not here to do your biddings. You get your ass up and get our supplies. You better handle our egg with care too."
Kazuya stood up. "Excuse me but I have yet to do anything wrong. Save your yelling for when I drop the egg on my way back because I am not used to holding things so small." he teased as he headed for the front of the room.
Sumara did not look forward to the project. She just wished she could skip school altogether and just participate in the sports. She did not know what the point of caring for an egg was when they were only meant to be eaten. She didn't plan on having any children for a long time anyway. 'oh well. I guess I should try hard enough so that my partner doesn't get a bad grade and I get a decent enough one', she thought as she looked around to see if her partner was there. At least she didn't have to worry about the money issue since her parents usually gave her some or the boyfriend issue since she didnt have one. Well she did wish that her partner was a boy, but it was only an assignment.

"A woman shouldn't argue so loudly with her husband." Aishida said after a moment, cutting off Amanda's reply.
