Chapter one

Hello. I'm Hotaru Imai and I guess you could call me a wallflower. I listen, I watch. I was getting sick of it because everywhere I would go, I see lovebirds all over each other. My grandfather never once visited my grandmother when she was in the Intensive Care Unit. I've never seen him cry when she finally died.

That proves love isn't forever, so why bother with love?

Now I will talk about parental love. If they loved me, they would've smiled good morning at me, or tell me to have fun in school. They would've brought me to places as a family. They would've showed up for my middle school graduation.

Except that they didn't. They didn't even flinch when I told them I would be graduating soon.

Still, I waited. When the ceremony was over, parents came giving their children bouquets of flowers, a good pat on the back, teary hugs. I stood alone, watching out on the road, waiting for a miracle to see if any flowers or hugs were given my way.

Something interesting happened though.

A blonde girl went up to me; she wasn't with her parents either. Her head was down; I couldn't see her face clearly. Also, her height was abnormal; she was heads taller than me.

She was in my school's uniform, but it's weird since I don't think I've seen a girl as tall as her before in my school. And I should know, since I observe the hallways and the people in it everywhere I went in school for three years.

She cleared her throat, and began to speak. "I-Imai," her voice was very muffled under the mask she was wearing so I had to strain my ears to hear her clearly.

"You were always silent, always glaring at people. If you wanted to change, how about you become a little bit girlier in high school? Maybe you should smile more often… A-Ah, I sound too arrogant, didn't I? T-then, bye!" she stuttered.

She turned and ran away, leaving me looking after her dumbly as her skirt blew in the wind.

…Were those shorts, or were those boxers I saw?

End of chapter one

Next chapter: Hotaru's first day of high school.

This is a bit short guys, the next chapters would be 1000+ words.

It's my first Hotaru fanfic~ And I won't be showing any pairings in the description because that would give away the whole plot. I assume you can guess who the mysterious girl was? It's kind of obvious though hahaha.

I don't own Gakuen Alice or any of the characters. I'm only saying this once in this story. It's FANfiction guys.

Tell me if you liked it. Or disliked it. Or maybe even love it... Hate it?

Thanks for reading, and I'd appreciate it if you reviewed.

Bye,
