Chapter 1

Taiyo sighed. Stupid science project. Stupid teacher. This was the only time all year they would need a partner for a project, and she was stuck with the hyperactive kid.

"Oh my God! These are so coooool!" Naruto screamed, picking up some chemicals. "Wow. I've never worked with chemicals before!"

"I wonder why..." Taiyo mumbled to herself. She turned to look out the window. This is gonna be one long-ass school year. And it had only been two weeks of school so far.

Then the bell rang. Taiyo got her things and headed toward the door when she heard her teacher call out that they would be getting a new student tomorrow. Great. Another stupid, overly-nice person to deal with.

Taiyo was so lost in thought when she forgot to watch where she was going as she was racing down the hall in a hurry to get to her next class. Why did it have to be all the way on the other side of the school? Suddenly she ran into someone. Hard.

"Ouch!"

"Oh my God! I'm so sorry! Are you ok?"

The person she ran into had already picked up Taiyo's books and was handing then to her. Taiyo looked up. She didn't recognize her.

"Hey, are you by any chance the new girl?" Taiyo ventured.

"Yeah. Was it that obvious?" The new girl rolled her eyes and smiled. She held out her hand. "Tenten."

"Taiyo. I thought you weren't supposed to be here until tomorrow." Taiyo said getting up off the floor. She liked Tenten so far.

"I don't start classes until tomorrow. Today I'm just meeting all my teachers and getting to know where my classes are."

The second bell rang to be into classes.

"Shit," Taiyo said. "I'm late."

"Where you headed?" Tenten asked.

"4th period Global."

"Same here! Cool we can go together!"

Taiyo and Tenten walked into the classroom six doors away from where they were, teacher glaring at them the whole time.

"Taiyo, in this classroom we like to start on time."

"Forgive her Mrs. Sumachi. She ran into me in the hall and decided to walk me to class," Tenten answered flawlessly.

Mrs. Sumachi hesitated. "Next time there will be consequences," she said before returning to her teachings.

Taiyo tried not to laugh at how corny the 'ran into me in the hall' that Tenten said was. She looked at Tenten, and smiled. She mouthed the word 'thanks' before opening her book to page twelve, as written on the board. Tenten smiled at her and faced forward.

Taiyo tried to pay attention, but she couldn't help thinking to herself. Maybe this wasn't going to be such a long year after all.
