P.S. There's a "secret admirer" who emailed me! He said he wanted to keep me forever! WAAH!! I'm scared!! ^_^

It was a beautiful, bright morning in West Tokyo.

All is quiet, peaceful...

YAWN!!!

Maybe not...

A girl with a beautiful silky hair yawned loud again. She rubbed her eyes. "I'm too sleepy... I don't want to go to school yet!" she whispered as she walked towards West High School.

"Ohayo, Kamiya sempai!!" the group of girls in grade 7 said.

Kamiya Kaoru waved at them wearily. "Ohayo..." she whispered.

"Kaoru-chan!!!!!"

Kaoru's eyes rolled and sighed. "Ah... It's the never-ending-energetic Misao-chan!" she said to herself.

Kaoru turned around and waved at Misao. "M-Misao-chan..." she called out.

"Ohayo!" Misao exclaimed with a cheerful face. "Eh? You look tired today!"

"Oh... It's because I stayed up last night just to watch a stupid show..." Kaoru whispered and yawned.

"Anyway, you really look so cool!!" Misao exclaimed.

"Keep it down, Misao-chan! Everybody's looking at us!" Kaoru said.

"Hai, hai!" Misao exclaimed.

"You're early today, Misao-chan." Kaoru said as she walked with Misao to school.

"Yup!" Misao said with her cheerful voice.

"Anyway, my energetic tomodachi, did you already find what you are searching for?" Kaoru asked, one of her eyebrows going up.

Misao covered Kaoru's mouth with her hand. "SHH!! That's our valuable family heirloom! No one must know this but you and me!" Misao exclaimed.

"Wakatta! Just take your hand off my mouth!" Kaoru complained.

"Hai!" Misao exclaimed and removed her hand from Kaoru's mouth.

"Well, ohayo, girls." The principal of West High greeted.

Kaoru and Misao bowed. "Ohayo gozaimasu, principal." They said and proceeded to go to the locker room.

Kaoru put her textbooks inside her locker and Misao did the same.

"Ohayo, Kamiya!"

Kaoru was surprised. The voice was familiar!

Kaoru turned around slowly and blushed crimson. "O-O-O-O-Ohayo, H-H-H-H- Himura!" she said nervously.

Misao looked at Kaoru confusedly.

"Ohayo too, Makimachi." Kenshin Himura greeted. He is one of the coolest guys in West High.

...and Kaoru Kamiya just happens to have a big crush on him!!

"Konnichiwa Himura-san!" Misao exclaimed.

Kenshin smiled. He noticed Kaoru blushing so much.

"Huh? Why is your face so red, Kamiya?" Kenshin asked.

Kaoru shook her head quickly. "N-No! This is nothing!" she exclaimed. She saw Aoshi Shinomori at the corner of her eye.

"Eh...?" Misao whispered as she stared at Kaoru.

"I think Shinomori is waiting for you, H-Himura." Kaoru whispered and looked at the ground.

Kenshin looked at Aoshi at his back. "Oh yeah! Well, see you in class, Kamiya!" he said and walked off with Aoshi.

Kaoru let out a sigh of relief. "That was so sudden!" she exclaimed.

"Hmm...! You like Himura-san, don't you?" Misao asked.

Kaoru blushed again. "W-What are you talking about?" Kaoru asked.

"I thought so! Well, why don't you say to Himura-san that you like him?" Misao said.

"Never! I'm not going to confess to him!" Kaoru exclaimed. "If I tell him..."

The thought of Kaoru:

"What is it, Kamiya?" Kenshin asked.

Kaoru gave a rose to Kenshin. "I like you, Himura!" she exclaimed.

"EEHH???!!!" Kenshin shouted and melted on the floor because of disgust.

Kaoru watched Kenshin melt on the floor. "WAAHHH!!!!! I shouldn't have told him!!"

End of Kaoru's thoughts...

"Mou!! I don't want to be rejected by Himura!!" Kaoru exclaimed as she pulled her hair.

"Relax, Kaoru-chan! Well, it's time to go to class!" Misao exclaimed.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------

"Why the smiling face?" Aoshi asked Kenshin while walking towards the classroom.

"Nothing!" Kenshin exclaimed and looked back at the locker room.

"Anyway, that's Makimachi Misao the newcomer, right?" Aoshi asked.

"Uh-huh. Why do you ask?" Kenshin asked.

"I just feel like...there are many transfer students this school year." Aoshi said and opened the door of the classroom.

Meanwhile...

Kaoru and Misao ran towards the classroom.

"We shouldn't have chatted that long!!" Kaoru complained as she ran along the hallway.

"Gomen!" Misao exclaimed.

Kaoru opened the door of the classroom.

Kenshin looked at Kaoru and smiled at her.

Kaoru blushed crimson again and was still like a stone.

Misao tapped her shoulder. "Kaoru-chan? Sensei's coming!" Misao exclaimed.

Kaoru quickly went to her seat.

Aoshi and Kenshin looked at each other and laughed softly.

Kaoru fell back to her seat. "Maybe they're laughing at me because I'm like a stupid freak!" she said to herself.

"Ohayo, class." The sensei said and went inside the classroom. "We're going to introduce our new transfer student. Come in." he said.

A young, kawaii and good-looking boy went inside the classroom.

All eyes were on the boy.

Kaoru's eyes widened and stood up suddenly.

Misao, Aoshi and Kenshin looked at her.

"Everybody, this is Seta Soujirou. He'll be with us starting today." The sensei explained.

Soujirou bowed and smiled cheerfully at everybody in the class. "Konnichiwa, minna-san." He said cheerfully.

"He's so cute and handsome!!" the girls murmured to each other.

"Over here!!" Kaoru exclaimed happily.

Everybody looked at Kaoru.

"Kaoru-chan!" Soujirou exclaimed and smiled.

"Are you related to Kamiya-san?" sensei asked.

Soujirou shook his head. "Well, not exactly my relative, sir. She's my childhood friend."

Kaoru nodded and smiled sweetly. "That's true, sensei." She exclaimed.

"Well then, take the seat at the back of Kamiya's." the sensei said.

Soujirou nodded. "Arigatoo gozaimasu." He said and walked toward the back.

Kenshin stared at Soujirou and watched him approach Kaoru.

Soujirou sat on the back and smiled at Kaoru. "We meet again, Kaoru-chan."

Kaoru nodded. "It's good to see you again, Sou-chan." She said and smiled at him.

"Kenshin? Something wrong?" Aoshi asked.

Kenshin quickly looked away at Soujirou and Kaoru. "Nothing." He said simply.

"Konnichiwa! I'm Kaoru's friend, Makimachi Misao! You can call me Misao!" she exclaimed.

"Konnichiwa, Misao." Soujirou said cheerfully.

"We're going to be close again! Today is a happy day for me! Why don't you go to our house later? My little brother Yahiko would surely wan to see you." Kaoru said.

"Yahiko? Sure, I'll come." Soujirou said with a smile.

"Domo!" Kaoru exclaimed and winked.
