Chapter 1

(Amu's POV)

Well, here I am…Seiyo University. I had been offered a scholarship to further my studies in fashion and designing. I like to draw, ever since I was little. Everybody also says that I am a gifted artist. I was so thrilled when I got to enter Seiyo University, studying my favourite course. But because the university was very far from my house, I had to stay in the dorm. Although it's sad to be away from my family and my friends, I still feel happy.

Too late to turn back now that I have come so far, I thought as I stepped into the campus.

I looked around and tried to find my way to my dorm. I had looked at the map like a thousand times before I came here but the surrounding still seem unfamiliar. Trust me; my sense of direction was real bad. I can even get lost going back to my house…sometimes. Can't blame me, everything seems like the same. I walked around the campus for awhile and then……

THUMP!

I bumped into someone and fall down. I closed my eyes waiting for the impact but I felt something soft or rather someone instead.

"Hey, how long are planning to lie on top of me. You do realise that you are heavy, don't you." a guy voice said.

I opened my eyes and quickly stood up. The guy has bluish-purple hair and tall. Nice looking yet so rude. I glared at him. "Well, sorry then. Wait, why am I apologising? Anyway, I am not the one who takes grudges against people who are blind." I said coldly to him. Normally, I would be more polite but he was rude to me, so I don't see the point of being nice to him.

"I am just stating the fact." He replied while standing up. "If you are planning to go to the girls' dorm, it's over another side of the building over there. This is the guys' dorm, so you shouldn't be here unless you are a guy." He smirked at me.

Damn. Nerve of this guy. I thought. Just when I was about to say something, another guy suddenly came out of no where. Most probably another one of his idiotic friend.

"Hey, what took you so long? Tadase and I had been waiting for you in the cafeteria for about half an hour. Overslept again? Oh, who is this girl?" the guy with brown hair said. He then turned to me "You must be new here. I am Kukai Souma. Just call me Kukai. Err…shouldn't you be in the girl's dorm? I get it. You must get lost. It a bit confusing since you just reached here. You will get use to it soon. Don't worry; let me take you there. Oh, I still don't know your name yet. So, what should I call you?"

This guy sure talks a lot. "I am Amu Hinamori. Don't worry, I can go there by myself. Thanks anyway."

"And get lost again" said the guy who bumped into me. I still don't know his name yet but who cares.

I glared at him. I only know him for like 5 minutes and I already don't like him. At least his friend was much nicer although he talks a lot.

"It's no trouble, I can take you there. Ikuto, you coming?" said Kukai.

Ikuto said as he turned around, "I'll pass. It's tiring to baby-sit some new freshmen who get lost and bump to anybody in her way. I'll just go to the cafeteria and wait with Tadase."

Must he be so rude? I thought as I went to the dorm with Kukai.

When I reached my room, I saw a girl with long purple hair. Most probably my roommate. She is very lady-like and elegant. Kukai just stand there speechless. On our way here, I thought that nobody could ever shut him up. He can just talk about anything and everything. Guess I am wrong. But he regained his composure quick and introduced himself just the same way like we first met. Then, he turned to leave.

After that, the girl said, "Hi, you must be Amu. We will be roommates from now. You can just call me Nadeshiko."

"Hi, nice to meet you." I was a bit shy around new people but I did learn to change. Still it's not that easy. At least better than last time I must say.

(Ikuto's POV)

I scanned around the cafeteria and spot my friend, Tadase sitting at the corner, waving at me. I made my way there, occasionally bumping into some women. I know their intentions, just to get me to notice them. Plus, I am also the friend of Tadase a.k.a. the prince and Kukai who is quite handsome himself. All three of us are popular with the girls because of our looks.

I sighed. All women are the same, but the girl just now was a bit different than others. What's her name again? Amu Hinamori? That girl was rude I must say and she just gets irritated so easily. I grinned. Interesting… I thought. Well, we'll meet again. It's quite fun to see her irritated look.

"Hello, Ikuto. You sure take your time coming here." Tadase smiled as I took a chair to sit.

"Have you ever known me to be punctual? After all, I am a stray cat." I replied.

He laughed and then said "Yeah, sure. Where is Kukai? I thought he went to look for you. So he is the one that is lost now?"

"Neh, Kukai is just being his usual self again helping some lost freshmen. Speak of the devil, here he is." I said as I saw Kukai panting at the entrance of the cafeteria. He must be running all the way here from the girls' dorm. Wonder what had got him so energetic. Maybe it's that Hinamori girl. Wait…why am I thinking about her so much? I thought while shaking my head.

"Hey guys, guess what? I just meet the love of my life." Kukai said while trying to catch his breath.

I chocked on my drink as I heard him said that line. "What? Who? You mean that pink-haired girl?" I asked.

"She is not bad. Cool and spicy as well as funny. But her roommate is much more beautiful," replied the energetic Kukai. Tadase seem a bit lost with our conversation.

"Wait, I am not sure I get you. So you are now in love with the pink-haired girl or her roommate…and what's their name?" Tadase asked.

"The new girl that I helped just now is Amu Hinamori, and her roommate is Nadeshiko Fujisaki. You guys have to help me out," Kukai said.

"Count me out. You know I don't like playing cupid. I am sure Tadase would be more suited for this job" I said while taking a sip from my drink.

"Hey come on. We are friends for so many years. I need you." Kukai begged with the puppy eyes. I hate it when he does that. "Yeah, it will be fun. After all, I want to see this girl that can get Kukai attention just in a few minutes only." Tadase said. Kukai blushed.

I sighed in defeat. "Fine, just don't be so mushy. It makes me feel creepy"

"Hehe…sorry, I know you will help. You don't have an iron-heart after all." Kukai smiled sheepishly. I sighed. This Nadeshiko better not be like that Hinamori girl. I thought absently.

(Next day: Morning: Amu's room)

"Amu, wake up. You don't want to be late for the first day of your school." I heard somebody said to me vaguely. I covered my head with my blanket and replied, "Another 5 more minutes, mum." I continue my peaceful slumber until I heard someone shout "COCKROACH!!" I jumped up and shouted, "Aaah!! What? Where? I HATE cockroach. Get it away from me…" The only thing I heard was giggles came from the culprit who had had scared me to hell...

"Nadeshiko! It's not funny you know. I may have heart attack and let me tell you, I Am Too Young to Die…"

"Well, at least it got you wide awake now, right? You should be grateful that I wake you up."

I narrowed my eyes at her. "Oh…really? Thank you very much then. There are other better methods you know."

"But you are like asleep like a log. I had tried to wake you up for like fifteen minutes already. If you are still sleeping, you will be late for class."

"Class… Oh no! What's the time now? I haven't wash up yet and haven't decided what to wear today. I am late." I quickly get myself ready.

"Relax, Amu. You still got twenty minutes. Well, I will be going now. See you later in the afternoon. Bye!" Nadeshiko said while turning to leave.

"Easy for you to say. I need at least ten minutes to get to my class. Well, thanks for waking me up by the way. Bye."

I was panting when I reached my class. Well, at least I am not late… Then, I heard a voice behind me, "What are you doing here, miss? You are taking business and management course?" I turned around to see that rude guy from yesterday, Ikuto…at least that's what Kukai called him yesterday. "None of your business… Wait, did you just say the business and management course?" I asked. Oh great, I must have take the wrong turning just now. I know I should have turned left instead of right. "Well, since you said that it's none of my business…"

I just ran out of the class without listening him finish talking. I will definitely be late if I spent time talking to that idiot. After some time, I managed to get to my class just before the professor came in. Fortunately, I was good in running back in high school.
