So Far Away

Myst Ellison stood by the front door of the school looking at the handle. It was the biggest decision of her life and she didn't know if she should take the risk. Every time she took a risk it turned out different then she planned and most of the time in a bad way. People walked to the door next to the one she was blocking and gave her a questioning glance before walking in.

Most would give her a questioning glance at what she was wearing. The girls here wore a uniform dress and she was wearing what she always had. She wore tight black jeans Americans called skinny jeans and three different colored tank tops, light blue, bright pink and vibrant yellow. Her shoes were rainbow Converse that she had ordered from the web since they didn't sell them online.

Her body didn't have any curves and she had an almost flat chest. It was from the fact that she didn't eat that often and ran a lot. Her family consisted of five siblings who were older and a mother and father. Myst's family spent most of their money on her older siblings for college and supplies that there wasn't enough for her to eat. She often lied and said that she would go to her friend's house and ask for a meal every now and then. When she lied about that she would go to the forest and watch the stars for the night.

Sadly, her parents didn't know she didn't have friends and she was jealous of her older siblings. They got everything first while the youngest got barley anything. Though she wouldn't change if she could, if this was how she was suppose to be raised for a reason she would tough it out.

She only got into Ouran Academy on a scholarship from being the best at her old school. Myst had to live with the Academy's owner though since her parents lived in another part of the world and she dreaded that fact. She already had pretty much made her choice; it is not like she could afford a flight back to home.

Reaching her hand out to the door handle, she opened the door and closed her eyes and breathed in. Opening her eyes she glanced around the building before stepping inside. When she deemed herself brave enough to explore she started walking forward in search of the headmaster's office. After her first step she felt more confident and soon she was walking with enthusiasm and was smiling.

Smiling wasn't something she did often and since she was smiling it meant she was truly happy and not faking it. Her parents didn't exactly ignore her as some would think when they saw the records on how things were spent and whom they were spent on. Myst understood that they were only providing for her siblings when they were on their own and needed some guidance and help, but she felt alone and forgotten.

Losing the smile on her face, her face was washed with a frown and sad eyes. Her face looked like she was crying silent tears. Turning a corner she saw a boy ahead of her. She called out to the boy in help to find the office and he turned to her.

Her first thought about this boy was 'wow he looks very girlish' but dismissed the thought thinking it was rude to judge others. "Did you need something?" he asked politely.

Myst looked at him analyzing him from head to toe before answering. "Yes please, I was wondering if you knew where the headmaster's office is. I need to converse with him."

The boy smiled and it shocked Myst how innocent he looked. "Yes of course I will show you!" he chimed.

All Myst could do was nod and follow him as he walked to the right down a new hall. Realizing her rudeness she turned to the boy and said, "Myst Ellison."

He turned to her while still walking and looked at her questioningly. "It is my name. May I know yours, please?"

"Yes, of course. My name is Haurhi Fojioka. It is nice to meet you Myst."

Myst nodded and said the same. The walk to the office was cut short when a boy jumped out in front of them. "Haruhi! Where have you been? Daddy has been looking for you! The club is going to start soon!" the boy had blonde hair and bright blue eyes. He looked very energetic and the thought that this was Haurhi's father scared her. A few seconds later a group of people rounded the corner that the blonde had and began talking to Haruhi.

Wanting to get to the office Myst mumbled a good-bye before turning the corner they had come around and saw the sign to the headmaster's office. Grabbing the door handle she turned it and opened it. She walked inside and closed the door. Myst walked up to the counter and asked to see the headmaster and was sent right in.

"Ah. Ms. Ellison, how're you today?" a middle aged man sitting behind a desk looking out the window. "My name is Yuzuru Suoh and I am your headmaster and father figure until you graduate."

All Myst could do was nod and listen to him jabber on about himself and his son, who she never caught the name of. By the time half the school time was over he dismissed her to go to music room three to meet his son and introduce herself to him.

It took all she had to not get lost within the building again but yet she found herself lost within it in mere moments of leaving the office. She climbed the stairs and walked around until she spotted the sign that had 'music room three' on it. She grinned widely and rushed towards the door like it was going to expire.

Opening he door she felt and smelled roses fly over her and a few swirled in her face. She sneezed and pushed the door open a little more. When she opened her eyes she saw something that resembled a tea party except people were dispersed across the room. Standing by the door, she looked into the yard like she was going to find someone she knew there. Silently laughing at herself she turned her head and found the boy who was with her earlier, Haruhi.

As if he could feel her gaze on him, Haruhi turned to her and smiled. Her heart lunged forward and she felt alone. No one ever smiled at her especially a stranger. A stream of breath chilled her neck as she spun around looking at a tall boy with glasses. "May I help you miss?" he said in a cool tone.

"Yeah, I am looking for a Mr. Suoh. Do you know who he is?" a soft laugh escaped his mouth before he answered her.

"Do you mean the headmaster? He should be in his office."

Myst scoffed at the boy. Did he really think she was that stupid? "I am quite aware that he is in there. I was looking for his son, the other Mr. Suoh."

A few gasps were heard from the crowd and a group of boys came up to her. The whispers in the background were, 'Can you believe she talked to him like that?' 'She does know that she is less than him right?'

Myst turned her head and glared at the ones whispering. The whispering ceased and she turned her attention to the group of boys in front of her. They were facing the other girls and making some announcement about the 'Host Club' being closed for the day. Groans were heard from the girls as they left one by one.

Once all the girls had gone, Myst repeated why she was here. "I have come to see a Mr. Suoh. Which one of you is him?" her tone was cold as she was angry with the boy from before.

The blonde got a mischievous look in his eyes and he walked forward and grabbed her hand. Pulling her toward him he suddenly kissed her hand. "My dear, I am Mr. Suoh, the king of this club. What could you possibly need from me, my darling?"

A loud crack was heard from the school and blank faces watched as Myst retracted her hand to her side. Tamaki was sent into a depression corner with a small red hand print on his face. Myst turned around and walked towards the door, "I guess we might have a problem getting along later. Guess I will see you at your house later."
