Hey guys! I'm a super big fan of Kamisama Hajimemashita and finally after lots of thinking, I've decided to start writing a fanfic of it. This is an AU where everyone is currently in high school. You know, like the typical shoujo/shonen manga. Everyone looks the same, it's just that they are not gods and do not own any powers. Characters are not mine! Only the story is mine.
Chapter 1: Letter
Once again without realising, Nanami's eyes were gazing intensely at Kurama. All she could see was sparkles and flowers floating around Kurama. How can someone be so beautiful and perfect? She thought. Nanami continued staring while her eyes slowly began scrolling from the latter's shiny red hair, to his unbuttoned collar with a loosened tie around it, down to his skinny pants that was carving out the shape of his perfect thighs and ending it with his newly polished shoes. Everything about him was sparkling. Somehow Kurama's radiant personality was refreshing to her eyes making it hard for her to hold back from looking at him.
"...ami. Nanami... NANAMI!" Otohiko Sensei finally lost his patience after calling out Nanami's name for so many times. Immediately Nanami snapped out of her crazy fantasies that almost made her drool (that would have been really embarrassing). She totally forgot that Otohiko Sensei was still in the classroom. In her eyes, all she could see was Kurama, the most popular guy in her school. And the person she loves. Putting that aside, Nanami knew what Otohiko Sensei was about to say the moment he called out Nanami's name.
"Please mee-"
"Meet you after school in your office. Yeah yeah I got it", Nanami continued his sentence and resume watching Kurama, completely ignoring Otohiko Sensei. Otohiko Sensei was not even surprised as calling Nanami's name was already like a daily routine for him. It was too normal that the entire class got used to it. Ami, who was sitting beside Kurama at the front, turn to look at Nanami and gave her a small giggle. Nanami caught Ami looking at her and she replied Ami with the same small giggle while scratching her head, looking innocently.
Tomoe woke up from the sound of Otohiko Sensei's screaming. He had always thought that his overly colourful dressed teacher was annoying. Especially when he is constantly screaming at Nanami, who was sitting beside Tomoe at the back of the class. Tomoe reluctantly dragged his head up only to face the hot sun glaring intensely at his face. He made a slight growl while looking at Nanami who was smiling happily all to herself, not realising that Tomoe was giving her his death glare. Tomoe hates it when people disturb his sleep but the one thing that really irritated him the most was sitting beside Nanami. Ever since the seating arrangement changed, Tomoe could not get his peaceful sleep which he had been doing since the first of semester.
No one really bothered about Tomoe. Not even Otohiko Sensei. Well that is mostly because even though Tomoe is continuously sleeping in class, he actually does his school work. He's one of the top students in the class too. Though, Tomoe was different from everyone else. Despite having good looks and good grades, his attitude is the total opposite of his beautiful face. He's the kind that gave off a "stay away from me" aura. Which is the reason why no one had ever tried talking to him. More like no one dared to go near him. However, there is one thing that not anyone can ever understand and have always been curious about. That is, how in the world did Kurama, the most popular guy in school be best friends with Tomoe, the most intractable boy.
It was almost the end of class and Nanami was counting the seconds before the bell rings. She kept her eyes locked on Kurama making sure that he does not leave her sight while her dominant hand was clenching a piece of letter. Once the bell rang, Nanami was all ready to leap and run towards Kurama but something kept her from doing so. Her legs were stiff as though it was glued to the ground. She could feel her heart beating faster and faster and slowly without realising tightens her grip. She turns her head to look at the almost crushed letter in her hands, staring into those two words written on it, To Kurama. Looking back at Kurama, he was already walking out of the classroom and soon disappeared along the corridor followed by the screams of his fans echoing after him. Feeling dejected, Nanami fell to her seat. Tears were clouding her eyes making her visions blurry. Even so, being the strong girl that she is, Nanami choke back her tears and slaps her cheeks with her two hands leaving a slight tint of redness. Yosh! I'll absolutely pass it to him tomorrow. Nanami then started packing her things and slid that piece of letter into her textbook that was lying on her desk. She grabbed her bag and swing it to the side while her left hand snatched the book from her table and made her way out of the classroom. Not realising that the piece of letter that was in her book was now resting peacefully on the floor.
Tomoe woke up only to hear the silence of the empty classroom. "Hahh... Classes already ended..." He mumbled. Inserting force on both hands he pushed himself up lazily from the help of his table. He took his bag and swing behind, resting it on his back. He placed his other hand into his pocket and started walking off. One more step to exiting the classroom, Tomoe stopped and held his position still with his right leg popping out front as though someone pressed a pause button. Slowly moving back his leg, he then began walking backwards stopping after taking five steps. He looked down only to find a piece of letter lying on the ground looking as though it wanted someone to notice it. Urgh. Why am I even doing this? Sighing, he leaned down crouching on the floor with his right knee resting on the filthy ground, creating a speck of dirt on his newly washed pants. Tomoe took the letter to his hand and without any hesitation, he had already unseal the letter.
To Kurama,
I have always been in love with you.
From,
Nanami
Tomoe stood up and let out a loud snicker after reading it. He folded back the letter placing it properly inside the envelope and slowly slides it into his bag before walking off.

"Ahhhhhh! It's not here. Why is it not here? It should be here. I placed it here right? Did I? Oh no oh no oh no." Nanami flipped out when she couldn't find the letter that she placed in between the pages of her book. Her room was literally in a mess. All of her belongings inside her school bag were out, lying all over the place. Each and every one of her textbooks were opened up and was dumped all over her room. Nanami wanted to cry thinking about what would happen if somebody found that letter but her anxiousness prevented her from doing so. Her head was jumbled up, thinking about the possibilities of where the letter might be at. After plenty of thinking, Nanami concluded that the letter has to be somewhere in school.
"I'm sure it's somewhere in school. I might have dropped it in the classroom. Yosh! I'll go to school early tomorrow to search for it. Hopefully it's there." Nanami heaved a long sigh before cleaning up the mess that she had made.
