Chapter 1: The begining
The sun shed light on everything in its path giving it a sort of heavenly glow. Two birds chirped happily as they danced around each other.
Everyone seemed happy conversing with everyone they came across. Everything was perfect...for all except one. How she wished her life was like that perfect. That one word always seem to be the opposite of the things going on to her. Her parents never home because they had to go on so many business trips. She had to take care of her twin brothers, who were only five, and couldn't really understand why their parents weren't ever home. She was the talk of the school, and not in a good way. Her grades were often fluctuating between below average and average. However she did skip a grade in elementary, which is why she is 14 in the tenth grade.
She sighed again. 'This is stupid...I don't even see the point of coming to school anymore.' She said to herself. Not paying attention to where she was going she bumped into someone. "Sorry." She mumbled not bothering to stay and help the person off of the ground.
Making her way to the front doors she quickly went to her locker grabbing her books for math, science, and English. Two of her most hated subjects, being math and science. She had neither the chemistry with math, nor the brains for science. Despite everything you seemed to always get an 'A' in English. Sighing again, as it seemed to be a new hobby of hers, she sluggishly made her way to her desk at the back of the classroom, next to the back window.
~Ok, I'm going into her POV now~
As always I ignored the stares, well...more like glares of everyone. They hated me for reasons I didn't know. I had no friends in this school...once I tried but it didn't work out the way I wanted. As everyone, mostly the girls, would point out I was ugly, unattractive, and stupid.
Soon, I just stopped caring all together what everyone was saying about me. The only thing I was focused on was getting pass the tenth grade.
The teacher came in and all the students that were conversing stopped and sat down. "Ok, I hope everyone got their homework." said, one of the vexing teachers at Meiou High. Thats right I go to the same school as the heart throb of many teenagers, Shuichi Minamino. Now he was perfect. He had perfect grades, perfect friends, a perfect reputation, and simply put...he had a perfect life. Something I seemed to lack.
"Ms. Kuramizu!" I jumped slightly and quickly wiped the drool that was coming out of your mouth. I blushed lightly, and gave him MY homework. Slightly shaking his head he left me desk.
I sighed. 'Great...just perfect'
~After class~
"Ms. Kuramizu, can I talk to you?" I stopped at the door and turned to meet me teacher. "Yes?" Dr. Hashima looked at me sadly. "Listen...I know it must be hard...with the position you're in. But your grades...If you continue like this you will fail." My eyes got wide. "W-what?" I was positive I her him wrong. He said I would fail.
However, Dr. Hashima nodded. "I can give you some extra work, and help any way I can. But you would only be able to scrape up a 'C' if that." I thought for a bit.
"Also...it would be best if you come after school for tutoring. It would be be-" "No!...I can't I have work right after school."
"If you don't pass this class no job will higher you. I'm trying to help you. You were one of my best students last year, and I hate to see you like this." I smiled slightly. Guess I was mistaken...I do have a friend here, even if he is my math teacher, and can be vexing at times.
I nodded finally as the warning bell rung, and students started filling the room. "Here." He said getting out a hall pass. "Just in case you're late to your next class." I took it and smiled kindly at him. "Thank you...I'll think about it and get back to you after school." He nodded and sent me off on my way.
Ok, so everything in my life isn't so bad. I quickly ran to my next class only being a few minutes late. i opened the door and handed the teacher the excuse. She nodded and went back to teaching biology. Going to my seat, which is at the back of the room once again, i suddenly tripped over something. I gave a small shriek as I fell. I caught yourself with my hands and knees, feeling a sharp pain run through my legs.
"Oops. Sorry." The class laughed except for one that was seated in the front with sharp green eyes. I glared at the owner of the leg, who was Suki Karituba the most popular girl in the school, hearing that she was nowhere close to meaning it. "That's. ok." I forced out through clenched teeth.
"Ahem." Mrs. Tsubaki was growing impatient. As quickly as I could you picked up my things and scrambled to my chair. I laid my head on the desk trying to hide from the eyes of the many student
'My life sucks.'
Once again Mrs. Tsubaki felt the need to humiliate me more and assigned everyone to get a partner; and once again I was left partner less. There was an odd number of students and as always I were the odd on out.
The assignment was to dissect a frog, take out it's organs and stuff, separate them, and then be able to label them correctly. I equipped the gloves and gently took the knife, cutting open the frog.
Hesitating just the slightest bit I separated everything on the sterile table. I opened my book to look up everything. Getting my pencil I got to work. So far I've been doing well in this class.
I took a sticky note bad and began to write down the organs that I could recognize. Then I stuck them under the said organ. Going back to the book I was unaware that the teacher left out to answer a call from the principal; and was equally unaware of the girl who tripped me earlier approach me.
Only when she was blocking my light did I notice her and looked up. Her face was contracted into a scowl. "Can I help you with something?" I asked as politely as I could, the pain in my knee reminding me of what she did earlier.
She made a clicking noise with her tongue. Everyone in the class stopped to look. "Why are you here? No one likes you." Suki spat. I said nothing and simply stared. Well that wasn't anything new.
"Why should I care what you all think? If you hadn't noticed I stopped caring long ago." I then went back to work but she had other plans. Her hand came up and swiftly closed my book with my hand still in it. Wincing I tried to get my hand out but Suki kept pressure on the book keeping my hand stuck.
"How dare you speak to me like that?" She was in a low whisper venom and hatred dripping from every word. "I only said what I ment. I no longer care when you and others have to say about me." She glared before smirking. Suki released took the pressure off of the book and turned on the sink at the lab table my worked at. She tossed the book in the water along with the assignment.
I could only stare with disbelieving eyes at what she was doing. Before I knew it you felt something cold running down my legs. Quickly looking down thinking the worst I saw that Suki had threw water over the front of my thigh length blue shirt.
The students laughed as tears threatened to fall. That was it, I could stand it any longer.
I jumped at her falling to the floor, me on top. I punched hoping to hit her face. Somehow she got the better of me and kicked me off. I landed on my butt hitting the back of my head on the lab table. By this time both of you had an audience of student who made a circle around the fight.
Suki kicked me in the stomach earning a groan. I kicked at her other foot and she fell, screaming with her descent. Taking the upper hand again I kicked her rolling her on her back. I grabbed her hair intending to smash her face into the ground. I was just so angry. Just as I was about to a pair of strong arms wrapped around me prying me away from Suki.
I struggled against the person, as Suki stumbled to get up. Her friends rushed to help her glaring heatedly at me. I ignored them and focused as Mrs. Tsubaki pushed her way through the students and laid eyes on Suki and then me.
Slowly I stopped struggling and fell limp in the persons arms. "Ms. Kuramizu! What have you done!?" I ignored her finding the ground more interesting. Slowly I was released. I turned to retreive your things, along with your now wet text book. As I did I noticed that the one who restrained me was Suichi.
In a quiet voice I mumbled, "I know my way to the principal's office." I made it to the office and was told to wait. Suki, a couple of witnesses and Mrs. Tsubaki joined not long later.
The principal, Mr. Kiruta, was told everything, except the part about what Suki did to me to start the fight. With that said was given 5 days
