And so Yukinoshita Yukino starts her day

Yukinoshita Haruno is pretty good at fixing and tidying stuff up. Awfully fantastic when it comes to breaking stuff, too.

Standing in a moderately sized apartment living room owned by her younger sister, she's doing the former. Fixing and tidying stuff up. Not as in cleaning and sweeping the floor.

Dust on the shoulder of her beloved younger sister's school uniform? Nothing a few swipes can't fix, right? Doing so raises a response from her beloved, Yukinoshita Yukino.

"Nee-san?"

Haruno hummed, "Yeah?"

"What are you doing?"

"Fixing your uniform?" Haruno still swiping and patting at her younger sister's shoulder like a mother would her child.

"Why?"

"Because there's dirt on you shoulder? Thought I could help" She says, "What kind of an older sister would I be if- "

"Yes, I understand Nee-san. Thank you" Yukino with squinted eyes.

"Rude", thought Haruno, "Cutting me off like that", with a pout.

Hmm. Squinted eyes… blue, cold, ice-y eyes. Yukinoshita Yuknio is known for these cold eyes. Eyes that can send a chill down your spine. A wicked glare. Eyes that can convey such a strong sense of hatred and disappointment.

Haruno's the same. Able to pull off cold stares is her specialty. She's even able to do it with a smile, too. Like a creature able to change shape and form, she can turn, in a matter of seconds, from a happy-go-lucky girl, to one with a malicious ulterior motive. But Yukinoshita's eyes weren't always like this. A childhood incident. Middle School. Class [Unknown]. A certain incident regarding the foul mouthing of a classmate of hers.

Female classmates had been jealous of Yukinoshita Yukino. Who wouldn't? The girls wanted her beauty. The boys wanted a chance to hold her hand give her a peck on the cheek. The second daughter of the esteemed Yukinoshita family. A family of fortune and status. The toppest of tops. Getting in bed with them was akin to winning the lottery and then some. Countless of possible partners were presented to the Yukinoshita sisters at parties full of fake people and even faker smiles. Every time, the two girls would deny their possible partners, always at the disappointment of their mother.

These girls, the jealous ones, wrote some nasty things on the chalkboard up front before school had started and when no one was looking. Things like "Bitch", "Cunt", "[Name] shoulda been aborted", "Do the entire world a favor and go commit suicide, [Name]". They directed these things to a quiet girl who sat next to the window by the name of [Unknown], a girl whom Yukinoshita was acquainted with, "We're friends", the quiet girl once sed.

But that relationship changed that day. One of many changed by these jealous young girls with cold hearts, girls ready to ruin another's life to up their own. And Yukinoshita saw that. Realized what was happening, "These girls must have set me up", she thought.

"It was her!", "Yukinoshita did it!", "She wrote all that mean stuff on the board about [Name]!", were things that the girls spit out of their mouths. Faceless girls with no personality.

Then, as if God had shone a light in the classroom via a window, Hayama Hayato, the school's Prince Charming, the one all the girls wanted to get with and the one all the guys strived to be, came and joined in. A "friend" of Yukinoshita's.

"Why did you do that Yukino?" He asked.

"Of course", Yukino thought.

"I did no such thing Hayato-kun, those girls are lying" Yukinoshita calmly, "You know I would never do such a thing, yes?"

Hayama looked at her, "There's no need to do this, Yukino. Just confess and everything will be all right,", with a smile, "we'll forgive you."

Yukinoshita's eyes widened a tad at this, "I see", she thought. Wry smile adorning her face, her eyes that were so full of life morphed into showing pure hatred and disappointment.

"It seems we are done, Hayama-kun" Addressing him with by his last name while the jealous girls whispered about this and that and while the quiet girl cried softly as a few girls comforted her, with one girl in particular, a girl with blonde drilly hair and pretty green eyes, glaring at Yukinoshita.

Hayama twitched a bit, but continued smiling. Something he's still doing to this day. That stupid smile on his stupid face. Stupid, indeed. A smile that sez "I'm too much of a pussy to do anything, so I'll just smile and hope for the best.", a thousand watt smile that Yukinoshita finds disgusting and a smile that most girls find charming. A smile that can send most girls into whispering giggles, send the guys into an admirable and envious state of mind.

This incident, more or less, caused Yukinoshita to obtain a wicked case of "Resting Bitch Face", as Haruno sez, making her even more harder to approach. Not that Yukinoshita really cares, "That is quite okay with me", she once sed to Haruno.

"And done!" Haruno with a smile, "Your uniform's all good to go."

Yukinoshita, being the robot she is, asked, "Mind if we go now? Would rather not be late on the first day of school, if possible Nee-san"

Haruno waved for her to go, "Yeah, sure. 'Course, anything for you, Yukino-chan ~"

Yukinoshita glanced back, "Right…"

Walking all stiff, Yuknoshita got to the door, twisted the knob, and held it open for Haruno to pass through. "Aw, how sweet of you. Thanks, Yukino-chan! ~" Haruno in a sweet tone.

Yukinoshita simply nodded and walked out after Haruno, following her, watching her figure sway back and forth, her walk both exuding confidence and sultriness as the pair ended up at the elevator. Calling the elevator, Haruno hummed while Yukinoshita stared ahead. The door opened and the pair walked in.

With the Muzak playing, Haruno asked, "Hey, Yukino-chan? What do you plan to do with Hayato-kun?"

Yukinoshita looked at Haruno, noticed a mischievous glint, and said, "Nothing."

Oh really? Haruno thought for a moment and asked, "Why?"

"Why what?"

"You don't plan to do anything about Hayato-kun? You sure? I talked to Hayato-kun and he sed he'd like to repair what was broken. No?"

"No. I don't want anything to do with Hayama-kun" Yukinoshita staring ahead.

Damn boring Muzak, they both thought. Awkwardness engulfed them like flames would a pizza in a pizza oven.

Haruno asked, "Are you sure?"

"Yes. Why do you care Nee-san? Planning something?"

Haruno, hurt (not really), "Me? Planning something? I would ne- "

"Don't act all cute and innocent with me Nee-san, I know how you are" Yukinoshita as the door opened.

"Boo!" Haruno with a thumbs down, walking after her younger sister, and said, "You're no fun Yukino-chan"

Yukinoshita hummed in response.

The pair walked in silence as they made their way to their chauffeur, a man in his 40s who'd been the Yukinoshita family's driver for nearly twenty years. A man who watched both the sisters grow up to the beautiful women they are today.

The sisters stepped inside the black luxury vehicle as the chauffeur held open the door for the two, earning a quiet thanks.

Unfortunately, Yukinoshita actually did end up being late for school. It wasn't Haruno's fault, however. Guess you could say it was Yuigahama's fault. This well-endowed girl who was too busy ogling at a young man on a bike, to notice her dog, Sable, gaining freedom from his leash and heading on into traffic.

This dog, Sable, ended up becoming, in a way, a bane to a certain someone's existence. Actually, you could say he was what brought everyone together.

A connection.

DON'T SKIP THIS, PLEASE: Hey. So, I'm rewriting most of my stories. I'm starting with Connections and will be working on this till it's done. It still retains its semi-nonlinear style. I'll be sure to say WHEN chapters take place, as to not confuse readers. I'll update my other three stories (Supernatural one, Sagami one and Serial Killer one) eventually. For those who've never read my other stuff before, I'm creating my own timeline and for those who've read my stories, hopefully this is different enough. So, obviously, I'll be taking some liberties with the original canon. Such as Miura's dad being Hikigaya's doctor. Tobe's mom being a nurse and so on. Hope you all enjoy.
