Chapter 1
Welcome Back!
It's been so long since I've been back to this academy. So much happened since the competitions. We of course went to the finals in Japan but we only got second place. Still, second place in all of Japan is pretty amazing.
Beside's that, Haku had started planning the wedding. She insisted on having the wedding in October two days before Halloween because she loves Halloween so much so I've been meeting up with them every couple of days to plan everything. Meiko is the worst maid of honor ever. She doesn't even do anything when we meet up but drink and complain that we haven't had a bachelorette party yet. Sometimes I wonder why Haku didn't pick me to be her maid of honor.
When I wasn't with Haku and Meiko I was with Kaito and boy was that interesting. My mom chased him around the house with her Nata 5 times. The first time was for stealing my virginity. The rest were for fun.
Kaito and I went on a bunch of dates and got closer which is good since he totally shattered my heart. Even now it still bothers me that he dumped me. Even if I took him back but I guess were even since I shattered his heart when I was in the hospital. He's still a little touchy on the subject but he's at least back to himself…accept he acts like I'm a glass vase that'll he's afraid he'll drop.
As for Kaito, he's been hanging out with the guys and planning this bachelor party and trying to talk Dell out of getting married…well Sora is. I think Haku gave him a black eye once for saying it to her face. I wish I had seen it because the next time I saw Sora, he was better.
Dell's been going insane about this wedding. Haku's making it perfect and she insisted Dell learn to dance the Waltz. Since he hates spending money and I'm the only one who knows how to dance the Waltz, I had been forced to teach him…Dell can't dance. I've been trying to teach him but he has two right feet. I say right feet because he's left handed.
Beside's that, I have spent a little time with all the girls. We all had a big sleepover at Lily's house. Apparently, her family is super rich. Lily's mother had created a popular clothing business and Lily's father owns an extremely wealthy cruise line. Her house is the size of 50 of my house combined. Not only that but she had just about anything a person could want. Lily's parents are really nice too so I don't understand why Lily's so bitter all the time. Must be a rich kid thing. Don't get me wrong, I love her to pieces but sometimes she can be a little cruel.
Anyways, during the sleepover we kind of did an over the summer catch up session. Apparently, Lily's been spending almost every day with Sora and she's been pretty happy lately. She didn't even speak when Gumi was going over her summer with Gakupo.
Gumi and Gakupo have gotten really tight lately. They've literally been together everyday this summer for at least an hour if not more. There so close it made Meiko jealous since Akaito is in America visiting Ron and his many female nurses. Last time I talked to him, he said he explained in disgusting detail about all the nurses. I'm sure Meiko's gonna beat him up when he comes home.
Miki and Piko haven't spent a lot of time together since there together now. There the cutest couple but there personalities are so off from it each other it's shocking. I mean Kaito and I are pretty different but at least we share a few qualities. Piko and Miki don't seem to have anything in common but the fact that they love each other. I mean Miki's competitive, loud and loves to hug Piko. Piko hates to be hugged, tends to be quiet and isn't event he slightest bit competitive. Nothing in common. I'm happy there happy though.
Len and Rin have gotten pretty tight. Rin spent a good 20 minutes explaining her summer in excruciating detail. Len's been staying at her house lately and from what Rin has told me, he's been enjoying himself. Also, apparently Len's a good kisser. Something I really didn't need to know but Meiko was all to interested in that so that got another 5 minutes of excruciating detail.
Neru and Nero have been seeing each other off and on all summer. Nero's been off working long hours so they only got to see each other on his days off but every day off he had, they've spent it together. There really sweet together but just like Miki and Piko, they have nothing in common but the fact that they don't talk a lot. Though Nero talks a lot when he's spoken too. He really is the perfect guy for Nero. She needs some crazy and wild in her life.
Haku of course have been planning for the wedding but when Haku and Dell were together all alone, they've been planning the honey moon which is gonna be interesting. There planning on heading to Hawaii which is good since Haku's so pail, Lily said that not me.
Teto has spent her summer designing for this year's competition. She had taken down everyone's measurements so making the outfits was apparently easy. She also spent a lot of time with Ted. They really are a sweet couple but they don't have much in common. Shockingly Teto loves to read just like Teto and she's really smart just like Ted. Other then that, I don't think they have that much in common. I guess it's all about the attraction to each other or something.
Luka's been reading all summer. Getting a head start on the reading list for the summer I guess. Kiyoteru hasn't been around since he went to Okinawa for some big family reunion. Apparently, his family is insane like his brother Shou. Luka didn't really say much but she did say she went to Okinawa for a week and was instantly accepted into the family which is good. I wish Kaito was easily accepted into my family.
The school year started with a bang. We all met in the parking lot, gave each other hugs then rushed to the house to see what freshmen were coming in. Since Mrs. Nagone left. Haku is going to be a dorm advisor and we all voted that Kiyoteru will be our dorm president and Luka's our vice president. I was nominated for that though which was nice of everyone.
When we arrived we grabbed our rooms and quickly settled in. We kind of ignored the room assignments and just grabbed a room with who ever we wanted to room with. Nothing really changed. We all took the same rooms but since Lily was already gone from the academy meant Haku was down a roommate but Dell filled in gladly. He was pretty much freeloading here. Plus Sora was also down a room mate but we all decided to cram Yuma into that room. That'll be interesting since Yuma and Sora don't really like each other to much.
Since none of us had opening ceremonies to go to, we just hung out in the living room and caught up with Iku and Sayu. Apparently Iku's got some fabulous boyfriend she's spent the summer with. Sayu on the other hand went traveling across Europe and saw some old family she had which was really cool. She even let us see all the pictures and man was Europe beautiful. I wish I had gone with her. It looked like so much fun.
By the time the freshman began to come in, we all had almost forgotten we were getting any new freshman. The first one was a tall guy with blue hair with a white stripe. The second one was also a tall guy and had orange hair but didn't seem too social able. The third one was a tall girl with long red hair and seemed to have a temper like Lily. The fourth was a tall girl with long and big sandy brown hair. The fifth was a short girl who wore a pink hoodie and also had sandy brown hair. The sixth one was a girl with extremely long blond hair and seemed as innocent as Neru only I just knew she was as crazy as Meiko. The Seventh was a medium sized girl wearing a black hooded jacket and had long purplish hair. The eighth was a short guy with blond hair wearing a sailor's hat.
Haku, of course, was the first to speak. "Welcome to Kyousei house. My name is Haku Yowane and I am the Dorm advisor here. Come to me, Kiyoteru over there with the glass or Luka the girl with the pink hair if your have any questions. Forget the room assignments. Just grab a room and a roommate and put your stuff down. The upper classmen have already picked there rooms so just throw your stuff into a room that doesn't have stuff in it then go see Iku for your keys. She's the maid."
"Len isn't this exciting" Rin shrieked shaking Len viciously.
"Watch it Len, your gonna kill him if you keep doing that. Then who are you gonna dress up in cosplay?" I pointed out.
"Woops sorry Len" she hugged him.
Haku rolled her eyes. "Don't go to Rin for questions."
"Hey! I know my way around this house just as much as you do Haku!" Rin snapped then made an angry face which was so adorable.
"Where's the fire exits?" Haku asked. Rin stuck her tongue at her then crossed her arms and pouted.
"Orientation over! Break out the boos!" Meiko cheered getting up and heading to the kitchen.
"Woo! Sake!" Haku cheered running after her.
"Since Lily's no there." Sora smiled deviously. "Meiko, grab me a bottle!"
"Fuck you Sora!" Meiko yelled.
I rolled my eyes and walked over to the freshman. "Come on, I'll give you all a tour. Haku's not gonna be much help when she's drunk."
"Isn't drinking for minors illegal?" the girl with the pink hoodie asked.
"Yeah but you shouldn't worry about it. They don't leave the house wasted. They only drink here. You'll get used to it." I explained leading the freshman upstairs. "Well anyways, I'm Miku Hatsune and I'm a sophomore this year. The rooms are all up this hallway. Room's 1 through 10 are taken but any other rooms are free for the taking. Whatever rooms you want but you do have to have a roommate."
"Ritsu, let's take this room." The guy in the sailor hat said tugging on the red haired girls arm.
"You have to pair up with a guy." I pointed out.
Ritsu face turned red. "I am a guy!" Ritsu snapped then walked into the room Oliver was pulling him towards.
"Oh sorry!" I shrieked.
"Nice, you can't even tell a man from a woman." The blue haired guy said rolling his eyes. "Come on Lui." The blue haired guy walked into the closest vacant room. The guy with the orange hair followed. That must be Lui.
"Sorry, Poiyo's a hard ass." The girl with the purplish hair said. "I'm Yuzuki Yukari. It's nice to meet you."
"Uh yeah, nice to meet you too." I said quickly. Then the guy with the blue hair must be Poiyo.
"I'm IA Sakamoto. It's a pleasure to meet you." The girl with the long blond hair said with a smile. "The girl in the pink hoodie is Miko Ooka and the other one is Umi Maruyama." I hadn't noticed but they had already grabbed a room (Umi Maruyama = SeeU).
"Well, why don't you two grab a room and then begin the tour?"
"Cool." IA said grabbing Yuzuki's arm. "Let's get that one."
"Miku!" Kaito called running down the hall.
I sighed. "What did you do now?"
"Why do you always assume I did something stupid?"
"Because you always do something stupid."
Kaito pulled me to him. "Not all the time."
"You dumped me because you're an idiot. That's pretty stupid."
"And I regret everyday."
"You better damn it. I gain 3 pounds because of that."
"Who knew if you eat a tub of ice cream, you gain three pounds?"
I rolled my eyes. "You're such an idiot."
"But I'm your idiot."
"Remind me why I took you back again."
"Let me jog your memory." He gave me a kiss which was a little to long to be just an ordinary kiss.
"Aw!" Miko said from the door of her room. We both look at her. "Woops sorry!" she ran back into the room.
Kaito chuckled. "Do you really want to tour the freshman when we could do other things?" He ran his hand down my side.
I blushed a little but swatted his hand away. "No, I want to. We can do whatever you want later."
"Are you sure about that?" Kaito asked tilting my chin up.
I grabbed him by the collar of his shirt. "Oh no you don't, I'm gonna make you pay for dumping me."
"Oh come on Miku. You know I love you." Kaito gave me his best sad eyes but I wasn't fazed.
"Nope. My decision stands. Keep your paws to yourself. You're lucky I even let you kiss me after you shattered my heart like that." I poked his chest. "Ass hole."
"You're so cruel. I apologized like a million times. What more could you possibly want from me?"
"Your gonna earn it." I crossed my arms. "You may think I'm cruel but all the pain you put me through was terrible. Whatever you felt when I was in the hospital was ten times worse for me."
He pulled me to him. "I'm so sorry Miku." He kissed my hair. "I love you so much and I thought it would be best for us but I was so wrong. I was so confused. You have to understand that seeing you like that broke my heart just like I'm sure I did to you." He tightened his arms around me. "I will do anything for you Miku but I need your forgiveness. If I have to spend the rest of myself making it up to you I will."
I hugged him back. "Meet me in one hour at the ice cream parlor." I looked up at him and gave him a kiss. "Are hearts have both been broken. Looks like were even." I laid my hand on his cheek. "I love you."
He smiled warmly and gave me a kiss. "One hour it is." He smiled and walked away.
"Miku are you ok?" Miko asked running over to me.
"Yeah I'm fine." I smiled at her. "Come on, let's finish that tour."
The freshman have such a wide range of personalities, it's insane. Poiyo is an ass, Lui doesn't even talk, Oliver acts like Rin, Ritsu is…well I don't know what he is but I do know he's a cross dresser which is probably good for Rin since she loves cosplay so much, Umi is really insecure, Miko is like a puppy dog following me around everywhere, IA is clumsy and a bit of a dumb blond, Yuzuki is so bipolar I can't even begin to explain it. I think were all gonna have some trouble accepting them into our group. There just so strange. I don't even know where to begin. Poiyo already despises me and I don't even know what I did. I was hoping they'd all fit in but I don't know.
We finished the tour with the living room. "And here we are at the living room. "I said with a smile.
"We know where we are." Poiyo said impassively.
I glared at him as he passed me. "Ass" I mumbled under my breath. "He's like a more douche bag form of Sora."
"Miku! Come drink with us!" Haku called waving her Sake bottle in the air.
"Yeah! Don't be such a priss!" Sora called from the couch. I can't believe he's actually getting drunk with them. He hasn't done that in who knows how long. He must be missing Lily. You know when you get down to it, he's such a sweet guy but he's still an ass.
"Shut up" I snapped then looked at my watch. "Ah! I'm late!" I jumped the couch and ran for the doors. I pulled my shoes on. "Bye guys!"
"Miku! Where are you going?" Haku called.
"Ice cream parlor!" I ran out the door and nearly killed myself sprinting across campus. I was dying by the time I pushed open the doors to the ice cream parlor. Kaito was sitting at a table waiting for me and checking his watch. I sat down in the chair across from him and then slammed my head against the table. "I hate running." I said taking deep breaths.
"Geez Miku, what did you do? Sprint here?" Kaito asked with wide eyes.
"Yes, I didn't want to be late." I said out of breath.
"Well now you look terrible. I'll get you some water." Kaito begin to get up but I grabbed his hand.
"No, I'm fine." I said sitting up.
He sat back down. "Do you want some ice cream?"
"Yeah." I stood up. He smiled and followed me into the line.
"What flavor today?" I asked with a smile.
"I don't know." Kaito glued his face to the window.
The girl working behind the counter, who knows Kaito personally because he comes here at least 5 times a week if not every day, smiled at him. "We have a new flavor this year. Red velvet cake" The girls name is Clara and she's apart of Meikin house and she's also Mew's closest friend. This is actually where I met Mew. There both really nice.
Clara has short black, is really tall, dresses in red and black but today she wore a blue and white striped apron over her red and black look plus heart shaped glasses. Today she had them on her head.
"Really! Then three big scoops my good woman." Kaito said with excitement.
"For you Miku?" Clara asked.
"Mint chocolate chip" I said with a smile.
"Coming right up." Clara quickly spooned the ice cream onto ice cream cones and handed it to us. "Now pay up and don't say put it on your tab cause it's maxed out."
Kaito gave me his award winning smile. "Spot me."
"It's not spotting when you never pay back." I said pulling my wallet out of my pocket and paying her.
"Love you." Kaito said with a smile.
"Yeah yeah, I know." I mumbled.
"So how are the freshmen this year?" Clara asked.
"I don't know what to make of them." I sighed.
"How many?"
"8" I answered.
"That's a little low. We have 20 new freshman and Tensei has 39"
"Well our house isn't exactly popular even with our trophy. Were still outcasts. Even probably thinks we won because Haku's father is one of the judges or something."
"But if you won because of that then you guys would have entered every year and won for no reason." Clara pointed out.
I shrugged. "People like to come up with ways to explain why we won. They won't accept it's because were good."
"I can see that as a problem but all you have to do is win again this year."
"It's up to the judges." I said with a smile. "Your house is really good, you could win this year."
"Yeah well we have to beat that stupid Kato house now. That Sonika chick needs to lose." Clara leaned against the counter. "Didn't you just love her face when she lost?"
"She needed to be put in her place."
"All this talk about competition is ruining my ice cream!" Kaito complained. He had already inhaled half of it and ice cream was all over his mouth.
"Yours such an ice cream fanatic." I sighed.
"You love me." He elbowed me then went back to eating.
"Sadly" I mumbled.
"You two are pretty inseparable aren't you?" Clara asked.
I shrugged. "When he doesn't do stupid things."
"I don't do stupid things all the time!" Kaito objected.
"You have ice cream all over your face." I pointed out.
Kaito glared at me. "Did you ever think I like it there?"
I rolled my eyes and handed him a napkin. "What am I ever gonna do with you?"
Clara laughed. "Get out of here before you freak out all my customers!"
"See you later Clara." I said with a smile.
"See you tomorrow." Kaito called. I rolled my eyes again. He's such a fanatic.
When we got home Haku was still drinking but she was looking through a wedding dress magazine. "Miku! Come see this one and tell me if you think it would show off my boobs to much!"
"I like it." Sora said then took a long drink of his Sake bottle. There were about 8 bottles on the floor plus what they were still drinking.
"I think it'll make her look sexy! Dell's eyes were fall out his head when he sees you!" Meiko announced then laughed. She was on the floor and still as wasted as ever.
"Iku, I'm cutting them off!" I called.
"Boo!" the three of them moaned. I snatched the magazine from Haku's hands. It was pretty but definitely would show off her chest to much.
"Yes it would make your boobs look big. Have some curtsy for us small boobed girls." I hugged my chest.
"Oh please, your boobs aren't that small" Kaito said. "There tiny."
"You're so mean to me!" I complained.
Haku hit him with the magazine. "Be nice to your girlfriend or your gonna loose a leg."
"Yeah yeah." Kaito waved her off. He pushed me upstairs only to be stopped by Rin, Miko and Len. "Miku! Have you seen Ritsu? She ran as soon as we tried to dress her guy cosplay!"
"Rin, Ritsu's a guy." I pointed out.
"I refuse to believe it." Miko and Rin said together then giggled.
"So did you see her?" Miko asked.
"No." Kaito said. I saw Ritsu tip toeing into his room and quietly shutting the door.
"I think I saw him in the kitchen." I said.
"Were coming Ritsu!" Rin shrieked. The all ran down the stairs…well Len was dragged down the stairs.
"I've got to got to unpack. See you later." He gave me a quick kiss then headed to his room. I smiled and walked into my room. Luka must have unpacked all her stuff because her suit case was already in the closet. She was hanging a picture on the wall from when we were at the beach last year.
"Hey Miku, wanna take a bath?" Luka asked jumping down off her bed.
"Sure but I need to find my stuff before I can go."
"Oh I already unpacked most of your stuff."
"Really? Why?"
"I got bored and I remember where you put all your stuff. Kiyoteru's working so I had nothing better to do anyways."
"You could get to know the freshmen?"
"Met them, not excited."
"Why?" I looked in the bathroom and found all my stuff unpacked and on the shelves where they were last year. I grabbed both our baskets and walked out of the bathroom.
"No man that dresses like a woman is going to be accepted by me."
"Just because Ritsu cross dresses doesn't mean he's not a good guy." I said handing her a basket.
"Whatever, I still don't like it." We both headed down to the bath house.
Later when we came back, it was late and the sun had already went down. Luka had gone back earlier then me and wasn't there when I came back. What was there was a little black velvet box sitting on my bed. I picked it up and opened it. Inside was a ring with a little diamond on it and a little note folded up. I opened and read it.
You are my only love, so with this ring I will always be yours.
Kaito
My eyes widened. It's a promise ring! I looked at the ring and it was engraved with my name on it and everything. Tears over flowed from my eyes as I slid the ring on to my ring finger. I knew Kaito loved me but I hadn't expected this at all.
I ran from my room and down the hall to Kaito's room. I knocked on the door and waited impatiently. When Kaito answered I jumped into his arms and kissed him. Ted, who was reading a book on his bed, got up and left without a word. Probably gonna spend the night in Teto's room. Good thing he did cause I didn't leave Kaito's room that night.

Thanks for reading and supporting Kyousei and I hope your looking forwards to what will happen in book two.
