Description
About two weeks after her release from the hospital, Claire was sitting in her wheelchair in her business management class. Her casted legs rested in front of her, propped up by the leg rest and a set of pillows. Even after two weeks, her poor broken legs still ached awfully. In order to try to gain some form of relief, Claire gently lifted one of her casted legs and adjusted the pillow underneath.

This was her first day back on campus, having arrived back at her dormitory the night before. Upon arrival most of the squad had welcomed her cheerfully. Many of the other girls who had been a part of the pyramid were also in casts, although not as extreme as Claire. Yumi felt awful about what happened, sitting next to Claire and apologising over and over as she sympathetically rubbed Claire’s poor, aching toes.

Claire could see Yumi’s sincerity even though it wasn’t the best toe rub, as the short arm casts on Yumi’s broken arms allowed for little more than gently stroking Claire’s toes with her fingers poking out of the casts. That night, the squad was planning on signing Claire’s casts. Claire wondered if Yumi was actually going to be able to hold the marker between her toes like she claimed.

As the professor’s lecture dragged on, Claire restlessly looked around the classroom. To her right she noticed her squadmate Nikki sitting a few rows down. Nikki happened to look over at the same time and gave Claire a friendly wave with her right hand completely casted to the fingertips, wincing slightly as she did so. Claire had to keep from rolling her eyes.

“Oh I’m sorry, Is your hand OK? Maybe if you had been catching me instead of falling on it you wouldn’t have broken your hand!” Claire managed to put down those catty thoughts and smiled and waved back sweetly, even blowing a kiss toward Nikki’s casted arm.

However, what she was really interested in was not Nikki but the guy sitting two seats down for her, Tom Woodson. Tom was famous for being the hottest guy on campus, and Claire was definitely interested.

“I thought I had lost my chance when he sat near Nikki, since she’s so cute, but neither of them had made a move yet. This is my golden opportunity!” Claire’s plan was to catch him as he was leaving and play the damsel in distress, asking him innocently if he would please wheel her to her next class.

“He can’t possibly resist a girl as cute and helpless as me!” Claire thought. “If I had known breaking both my legs would give me my prime opportunity to get with Tom Woodson, I may have toppled of a pyramid myself!”

To prepare for today, Claire was wearing a cute short dress that almost revealed the tops of her casts. In addition, last night her toenails were painted a lovely green by Kaori, whose own pedicured toes Claire had been admiring poking out of the short leg cast for Kaori’s rebroken left ankle.

“Poor Kaori… I wonder when her ankles will not need braces now,” Claire thought.

Looking at her cute toes again, Claire thought to herself that her plan was flawless.

Suddenly, the classroom door opened and Claire heard a cute voice say, “Excuse me! Is this business management? I just transferred here and I got lost on the way!”
