Hey everybody! So this is the first set of oneshots I've ever done and I'm pretty excited about it. Some of the chapters will follow the anime and manga but most of it will just be random. One thing you should know is that my oc is from France so there will be some French in most of the chapters but only small bits here and there and I'll always put the translations at the end of the chapter. I'm using Google Translate since I'm not fluent in French or anything so I apologize if the translations are wrong. Also let me apologize in advance if any of the characters seem ooc in anyway.

The big F on her quiz paper was like a slap to the face. Véronique LaCoursiere-Koizumi couldn't believe that she failed the demon pharmaceuticals quiz after studying so hard for it, her grandmamma would be so disappointed when she finds out. This wasn't her first bad grade but this was her first F. She had been having trouble with the schoolwork and since she didn't have any friends she didn't have anyone to turn to for help. She had been telling herself that she needed a tutor and this was just a wakeup call telling her that she needed one now. Izumo was one of the top students in class and would be a good tutor to have but the girl was just too mean to her, rudely calling her a hafu when she felt it was necessary because she was half French and half Japanese. She could ask for help but she already had a hard time understanding him so that only left the cute boy who was always scowling.
"Um Suguro could I talk to you for a moment?" Véronique asked shyly.
"Uh sure." Bon said surprised.
Konekomaru and Shima were just as surprised as he was and quieted themselves to listen to what the exotic girl had to say. Nobody really knew much about her since she rarely spoke up in class so they gave her their full attention, her thick French accent fascinating Konekomaru and her looks making Shima fawn over her. Véronique had short, almost shoulder length green hair with a waist long ponytail, big blue doe eyes, and was quite busty despite her petite figure, something she was self-conscious about. Noticing that Shima couldn't look away from her chest and that it was making her uncomfortable Bon sharply elbowed him in the side before nodding for her to continue.
"Well you're one of the top students in class and I'm having trouble keeping up so I was wondering if you would please be my tutor?" Véronique asked, bowing deeply to hide her embarrassment.
"Y-you want me to what?" Bon asked.
"Tutor me! Please don't make me ask Izumo, she'll make fun of me and she's already obnoxious about me being a hafu." Véronique begged.
"Um okay, sure." Bon said.
"Great! Do you think we can study at my dorm tonight?" Véronique asked.
"Y-your dorm? Uh s-sounds cool." Bon told her.
"Thank you so much!" Véronique said cheerfully.
Later that day Véronique was laying on her bed reading Ouran High School Host Club, having just finished her homework when there was a knock at her door. When she opened the door she was surprised to see Bon. She knew that they had agreed to meet but after the incident in P.E involving the Reaper she didn't think that he would show up.
"Oh Suguro I didn't think you would show." Véronique said.
"I said that I was going to tutor you didn't I? So are you going to let me in or not?" Bon asked.
"Sorry come in. I just thought after what happened earlier you wouldn't want to come. I'm glad you weren't hurt though." Véronique said.
"Uh yeah thanks. So what do you need help with?" Bon asked.
"Demon pharmaceuticals for sure and scripture recitation spells. Actually I need help with all of my classes right now. I don't normally have this much trouble but lately I don't know what I'm doing. Maybe the transition from France to Japan is having an effect on me or something. Do you really think that you can help me?" Véronique asked.
"Yeah so let's get started." Bon said.
Véronique plopped down on her bed and Bon took a seat at her desk and they began to study. Bon helped her correct the homework she had done earlier and then began to go over the stuff she was having trouble with. After the struggle with demon pharmaceuticals Bon began reciting the bible scripture they needed to memorize but Véronique wasn't paying much attention at that point. She noticed that he closed his eyes while he recited and he didn't seem to be glaring, almost like he was at peace with himself.
"I like the way you recite and chant Suguro, it sounds nice." Véronique said when he finished.
"Uh thanks." Bon blushed.
"I really appreciate this, I understand everything a bit better now." she told him.
"No problem. It's getting kinda late so I better get going. I'll see you in class tomorrow." he said.
"Au revoir Suguro.(1) " Véronique smiled.
The two kept meeting for their tutoring sessions and Véronique's grades began to improve. Not only that but she was actually making friends now as well. Véronique hung out with Bon and his friends almost every day now but she was much closer to Bon than anyone else, now on first name basis with him since the two were almost always together. He was always the first one to stick up for her when Izumo picked on her about being a hafu and always did his best to cheer her up when she got upset about it. One time Véronique actually got really upset over something Izumo said about her that she ran off to cry and Bon just about exploded because of it. He found her crying her eyes out and gave her a shoulder to cry on while he tried to console her. She was sure that she would be lost without the sweet attractive boy and didn't know what she would do without him.
"Alright class, I've finished grading your last demon pharmaceuticals quiz. I can say that I'm pleased to see that some of you have improved and disappointed that some of you haven't. When you get your quiz back you are free to leave. Miss LaCoursiere-Koizumi I want a word with you after class." Yukio said.
"Looks like the hafu is in trouble, probably failed out of the class." Izumo sneered.
"Oh shut up Kamiki! I'll wait for you okay Véronique." Bon said.
"Okay…" Véronique said quietly.
When everyone left Véronique nervously approached Yukio who just smiled and handed back her quiz with an A on it. She stared at the quiz in shock, expecting a C or B at the most if she had actually passed instead of failing. She wanted to cry and jump for joy.
"I've noticed that all of your grades have been improving greatly lately. I know you were struggling at first but I'm glad that that's changed. Please keep up the good work and don't hesitate to ask me for help." Yukio said with a smile.
"Yes thank you!" Véronique said.
Véronique practically ran out of the classroom and tackled Bon into a hug who luckily caught her in his arms and steadied the two of them before they could fall over. The laughing girl took him by surprise and he wasn't sure what was going on. Obviously she didn't fail but that was all he could gather from her strange behavior.
"What's going on?" Bon asked in confusion.
"I passed! I made an A and it's all because of you! Thank you so much Ryuji!" Véronique squealed happily, kissing both of his cheeks.
"Really? You made an A!? That's great Véronique!" Bon said.
In his excitement he spun them around, causing Véronique to laugh and cling to him tighter. When he placed her back on the ground they both too caught up in the excitement that neither of them noticed how close together their faces had gotten. They stared into each other's eyes, unable to look away, with big grins on their faces, and before she knew what she was doing Véronique stood on her toes to lean up and placed a kiss on Bon's lips. He was too shocked to respond and Véronique pulled back; dejected, embarrassed, and on the verge of tears.
"Je suis tellement désolé! Je ne sais pas ce qui m'a pris! S'il vous plaît ne me déteste pas ou-(2)"
Bon cut her off by claiming her lips with his. Véronique's eyes widen in surprise before she closed them and gave into the kiss. She wrapped her arms back around his neck and he grabbed her waist, pulling her closer to him. Their lips moved together and Véronique thought that her heart was going to burst out of her chest. She was the one to pull away for air first but they kept their foreheads pressed together. When she opened her eyes she peeked up at him to see that he was looking down at her through half lidded eyes and that the both of them were blushing like crazy.
"You know I don't understand a damn thing you say in French." Bon said.
"Maybe I could tutor you then." Véronique slyly suggested with a smirk.
Bon chuckled and nodded his head in agreement before leaning in for another kiss. French was the language of love after all.
So that's it for the first oneshot of the series. The next chapter will be out soon but until then please leave me some reviews so I know what you all think (good, bad, worst thing you ever read), it would really mean a lot to me if you did! Also don't hesitate to leave any constructive criticism if you feel like I need it but no flames, there's no reason to be rude.
Translations
(1) "Goodbye Suguro."
(2) "I'm so sorry! I don't know what came over me! Please don't hate me or-"
