Chapter 1: First Day
Lelouch P.O.V.
I'm Lelouch Lamperouge, a freshman at Ashford Academy. Today is my first day here with my friend Suzaku Kururugi. Suzaku and I go way back, but we got separated in middle school when Suzaku had to transfer to a school in another city. It just made me feel relieved and happy to see my old friend again. In the end we ended up having our entire schedule together.
"Hey Lelouch!"
I turned around to see who was calling my name. When I looked I saw Suzaku running right towards me.
"Hey! We have the same classes together Lelouch, isn't that great!?"
"Ah, Suzaku, of course it is. It's been awhile, hasn't it?" I answered back with a smile.
"But then why do you look so glum?"
"It isn't you don't worry, but it's just that on my way here to homeroom, I got glomped by a whole bunch of girls asking me for my number or if I was single." I sighed exasperatedly after I explained the reason for why I was being so melancholy. The look on Suzaku's face was both, a mixture of humor and curiosity.
"Well what did you say?" Suzaku asked back curiously.
"Well… I tried to run away from them, but they caught up to me. I ended up hiding in a janitor's closet."
"Were any of them cute?" Suzaku teased lightheartedly.
"Suzaku, what kind of question is that?"
"Nothing, don't worry about it." There was a sly look on his face, but before I could question further the bell rang. We walked together to our class.
Later that Day….
"Hey, Suzaku…"
"Yeah, what is it, Lelouch?"
"I'm going to go home early today…"
"Lelouch, we only have one class left. Can't you wait till then? "
"Today's been hectic, and I already told the teacher I won't be there. He was fine with it, so don't worry goody two-shoes."
"Do you want me to go with you?"
"It's okay Suzaku, one of us has to be here to be able to tell the other what happened." With that I went ahead and left saying good bye before he could chastise me further.
C.C P.O.V
"Why did I have to choose Ashford Academy?" I thought to myself glumly.
I mean…everyone here seems like they are a bunch of airheads. Just walking through the halls trying to avoid lecherous looks I tired blending in. Unfortunately, I kept getting approached by guys asking for my number, or to go on a date. The whole idea was absurd. They didn't even know me. It was obvious that they only liked me for my looks. Really…was it so hard to have one decent person, who would like me for me? It was highly doubtful, so far. On the bright side got a paper to join the student council. That should prove interesting enough.
I kept on walking, thinking that I could just skip the last class, so I did. While 'escaping' school, I was solely focused on leaving and kept walking faster. Just when I thought I had made a getaway I suddenly crashed right into someone. The person fell backwards with a surprised gasp and I fell on top.
"You should be more careful, and you're crushing me..." The boy beneath me said with an amused smirk.
I looked to see who I had landed on and noticed the boy beneath me. Instantly becoming flustered I blushed unconsciously looking into his eyes. The deep color of his purple hues drew me in for a second, but then when I realized the situation, I quickly got up.
"I'm so sorry… I should have looked where I was going." The boy apologized, sitting up.
"It's okay really... I was the one at fault here not you." I replied back with a faint smile offering my hand to help him up. When our hands touched I felt a sudden spark. Weird…I wonder if he felt it too.
"Well, I still feel responsible, so let me make it up to you." The boy offered, taking her hand and standing back up. "I can treat you to a movie or even ice cream if that is what you wanted."
I was really taken aback by his answer and didn't know how to reply. He seemed genuine enough, maybe it wouldn't be so bad to take him up on his offer.
"Well first, tell me your name."
"I'm Lelouch Lamperouge."
"Well Lelouch, I'm C.C."
"Well C.C, will you accept my offer and let me take you on a date?"
I couldn't help, but blink and blush again at the mention of the word 'date'. Well, that was certainly unexpected of him and wasn't this something I was trying to avoid? Still that hopeful look in his eyes was kind of cute…
"Sure," I replied trying to hide my sudden joy, "what will it be?"
"Umm, how about tomorrow at five in the afternoon. We will meet in front of the movie theater, or I can pick you up?"
"Sure, that'd be great. I'll be waiting for you at the school."
"Alright. See you tomorrow then, C.C."
With a nod of farewell, I turned around and walked away. There was this feeling of warmth inside of me and that made me happy. It was all so strange because I couldn't remember the last time I felt like this. Looking forward to our date I continued home looking forward to seeing him again.
Lelouch P.O.V.
When our surprisingly well conversation was over, I watched her leave with baited breath. It was tempting to offer to walk her home, but I deduced it would be better to just sort out what had just happened. My first date with C.C was tomorrow and it would be a lie if I said I wasn't looking forward to it. Running a hand through my hair I sighed in deep thought. Hopefully her yes wasn't forced. Oh well, there was nothing that could be done about it now.
Once I had arrived at my home and went inside I made my way to my room. Even now all I could think about was her. What was happening to me? We were total strangers before… Whatever these feelings were it was all happening to fast for my taste. Sighing in irritation, I sat on my bed looking out the window. Will she even show up tomorrow?
I was shaken from my thoughts when I heard a knock on my bedroom door. It made me jump out of bed. What now? I went and opened the door to find Suzaku there.
"Hey, you had me worried. You left your front door open and you didn't answer any of my calls." He said with worry.
I looked at him confused. I left the door open? Funny, I could have sworn I closed it…
"Oh… I'm sorry Suzaku I just…. Had a lot on my mind."
"Lelouch, we've known each other for a long time and I know when something's up." Suzaku said, crossing his arms looking at me expectedly for an answer.
"Suzaku, you know me too well. Well, you see today I ran into a girl and now I have a date with her tomorrow. I'll be picking her up at the school."
"Did you want a date with her?" He inquired, raising a brow.
"That's the thing," I sighed, "I'm the one that asked her out."
Suzaku looked at me in surprise, but then grinned. "Lelouch! I'm proud of you." He said in approval, patting my shoulder.
"I sense a hint of sarcasm in your voice…" I replied with a small frown.
"No way! I'm honestly happy that you've finally taken an interest in someone." He defended lightly.
"Well it's late Suzaku, so do you want to spend the night?"
"No thanks, Lelouch, I think I had better go now."
After saying goodbye, I went back inside making sure to close the door this time.
