POV: Noire
It's already 7 AM~ The sound of the alarm went off. Tired and exhausted to move, I yelled at my foster mother Kei. ''MOM can you turn that thing off!?'' I said. After a few seconds a blue-eyed woman with boyish look opened her door. Surprised by her new daughter's antics and sighed. ''Noire, it's your first school day today and you spent all night playing your online game. You're a teen now and should know better.'' Kei lectured me for some minutes but unbeknownst to her I fell asleep after she silenced my alarm. ''My, aren't you a troublesome child..'' we both smiled. ''Ah well Noire, I'll make breakfast for you, it's not my choice if you want to display yourself like a lazy slug as a transfer student'' as she smirked. After realizing the clock was now 7:15 AM I quickly jumped out of bed after witnessing mothers words. ''Damn she got me..'' I checked my mirror and honestly my mirror was reflecting something ugly. Never seen such.. a thing before and I began to scream. ''MOOOOOOM!'' Waking all the neighborhoods. I was shaking a lot till my mother came in and Instantly cried and asked for a hug. Kei who just finished making breakfast for me asked ''What's wrong Noire? You're very noisy today.'' She was concerned. I was still shaking and trembling after I saw a horrifying person in my own mirror as I explained my mother who was giggling. ''Why are you laughing mom?! Can't you see that horrifying thing over there?!'' I said. Kei had no words for her new daughter now, she could not contain herself from smiling, she hugged Noire back. ''Yes Noire, I can see her perfectly in my arms. It's none other than you.'' She said. I was confused, how could she compare me to that red eyed.. thing… after realizing it was me and embarrassed. I was blushing. ''Mom am I really this horrifying ?'' I asked with a lot concerns and regretted playing my game all night. Kei let go of me (aww) and said ''Unless you don't plan to fix it, I'd say you will frighten everyone. As your prideful mother I demand you to fix your current display instantly'' she told me with a prideful tone. I pouted back. My mother can be annoying sometimes but I am thankful she's honest with me.
After my mother left my room, I quickly took a shower, brushed my teeth, fixed my hair with two ribbons on each sides and wore my school uniform with my twin tails. Luckily, I was in class B. in total there is 4 classes with different color uniforms. Class A has Purple outfits, Class B was Black, Class C and D was White and Green respectively. I guess it was just a system to differentiate all the classes. Sometimes we would have different subjects with different parallel classes and sometimes all together. My thoughts were running wild after my mother suddenly yelled my name. ''Noire, breakfast has been ready for some time now! You should eat before it gets cold!'' I snapped as my mother told me. Quickly left the bathroom and took my bag with me. ''I'll be right there!''
My mother was waiting for me to sit down in the table. Her breakfast are so delusion as I stared down on my plate. ''egg, bacon and milk. Your favorite right?'' Kei said. I smiled back and replied sweetly ''I love you mom'' as I took a bite. Starting my first school day with my favorite breakfast from mother is not a bad start. I was enjoying the moment. I was happy I had a caring mother after I lost my parents long ago. I looked up and saw a stern look at my mothers face. She seemed worried about something.. ''What's wrong mom?'' I asked. My mother did not reply. Was something bothering her? I was worried too. It was silent for few seconds till kei, my mother finally broke the silence. ''Noire, I hope you'll make a lot of good friends. Tell me everything when you come home ok? She had a worried expression. Sometimes my mother could be confusing. Her honesty and her sweet side are just so unexpected but regardless I love her so much. I stood up after finishing my plate. ''Don't worry mother, I'll be fine'' I said with a smile. It's about time i need to catch my bus. I put my plate in the dishwasher, gave mom a hug before I headed out. ''I'll see you when I get home then mom'' As I left home, I looked back and saw her smiling in the window waving goodbye to me. I happily smiled back as well. ''She really cares about me huh..'' I giggled a few minutes till I saw my bus. I entered and scanned quick for empty seat.. everything seemed occupied. Before I realized everyone was staring at me and my face turned into tomato. God this is embarrassing!
There are so many students from my school…. Great, everyones giggling at me. But where do I sit? I thought 'critically' for some minutes till I saw this purple haired girl waved at me. ''Why don't you sit with me haha you weirdo.'' The purple haired girl said. I did not hesitate and decided to just roll with her idea. I sat down with her and thought to myself. ''that was so awkward.'' I covered my face in embarrassment and sighed. I should've just walked to school instead… but who is this girl? She seems nice, well nice enough to get me out of my awkward situation. Maybe we could be friends? ''Wait did you just call me weirdo?'' Oh for god sake Noire is that how you start a conversation?! But I'm definitely not weird! ''Hm? Are you talking to me?'' The purpled haired girl said. Is she ignoring me or..? I sighed. ''Yes I am. You are sitting next to me aren't you?'' I raised my voice a bit. ''oh I'm sorry I was just.. in my own world for a moment, have a lot stuff going on you know hehe'' She said.
Well ok I guess that explains why she wasn't listening to me…I wonder if she doesn't want to talk with me.. cause of my embarrassing moment a few minutes ago. It was very uncomfortable… well since I'll be sitting next to her for 15 minutes till we arrive, I guess it doesn't hurt to open up a bit and make my first friend. I should start with showing her my gratitude first. Trying to get some eye contact but seemed impossible at the moment, she was staring outside the window. Maybe she doesn't want to talk with me? I should at least say thanks. ''Thank you for letting me sit next to you'' I said quietly. ''hehe no biggie, names Neptune.'' Finally we can get somewhere! I thought to myself. ''I am Noire, nice to me you.'' I smiled. ''awesome to meet cha'' Neptune said. I realized this wasn't going anywhere after all. I should think about something to ask her… ''So Neptune what are you thinking of?'' She seemed worried about something. Neptune answered back ''oh it's just.. well personal things ya know.'' Maybe it was too soon to ask? I barely know her after all. I guess she's not really up for talking. I took my phone up, plugged in my earbuds and listened to some soundtracks from my game. I looked back at Neptune and saw a sad face expression. Was she crying too? She looks so sad. Our eyes met again. ''Are you ok Neptune?'' I asked her with a worried face. She quickly wiped her tears away. ''Yea.. I'm fine sorry for spacing out a bit. It's just.. something frustrating going on at the moment. She said with a weak tone. What's she thinking about? Something was bothering her a lot I could tell that much. ''Do you want to talk about it?'' I said with a smile. ''What would you do if you're in love with someone you can't have?'' Neptune said. Is Neptune in love with someone? Thinking about it for a few seconds.. I didn't really have an answer for it. ''I don't know Neptune, I haven't really had my first love yet so it's hard for me to say'' But to be honest Neptune didn't strike me as a romantic type. I was surprised. I guess we're in that age where girls are thinking about love and such. ''Aww neppers I guess, you're not her after all so it's kind of pointless to talk about it'' I could tell it was eating her up emotionally. I love my mom but Neptune is right. I may not be an expertise in love or the person she's in love with but I don't think it's pointless to talk about it. ''What is this person like?'' I asked her. Neptune seemed to be thinking hard what to say. ''hm.. I guess I just like her strong personality. She works really hard and never gives up'' Sounds like she really admire this person. I don't understand this love thing yet but I wonder why Neptune is thinking so much about it. ''if you love her, you should confess to her. Maybe she likes you back?'' Neptune seemed more discouraged now. Did I say something wrong? Maybe I shouldn't have said that. ''I like her a lot but we aren't really in the best terms so..'' well that explains why she hasn't mustered courage to tell her. If anything, being honest with yourself is one way to live a happy life.
This mood setting was really killing me. Neptunes word made me think about it hard. What definition can I use to describe it. I love my mother, my guild friends and other... things like cosplaying but what about infatuation? Just thinking about it made me blush. Do I have someone I would consider to date? Someone I will cherish rest of my life... spend my life with that person together for all eternity... nonono Noire, you're too young for this! I was lost in my thoughts before I noticed Neptune gazing at me, staring at my soul intensively. What's her deal?! It's very unsettling. ''N-N-N-eptune, st-st-op looking at me like that!'' I never felt so uncomfortable in my entire life, what's her deal?! Is she mocking me or something?! But the mood was different now. Neptunes face expression changed. She was no longer down, in fact she was smiling happily. What's going on with her? She's definitely someone I would call ''weird'' but why is she staring me like that? Inhaling and gained composure back, I asked her ''Why are you looking at me like that, is there something on my face?'' I could not hide my tomato red face. Why did I get so embarrassed? No the better question is; Why would she stare at me like that. She's giving me headache already. ''Hey Noire, what are you thinking of? Your face is painted in red hahahaha, your face is steaming crazy right now.'' Neptune kept on laughing. I was flustered now. Did she just pull a 180° personality change?! Who the heck is this girl? I don't understand her at all. ''Hey Nowaru, tell me tell me'' Neptune kept on nagging me. Wait did she just call me ''Nowaru''? I've had enough of Neptune now.''I..It's nothing really! And my name is Noire, not Nowaru!'' I answered back with a nervously. I turned my face the other way, embarrassed as ever. Neptune continued to chuckle. Really what's her deal? First she feels down but now she's happy all the sudden. I don't understand this girl at all. I Inhaled once more to regain my composure. ''you're funny Noirey, we should totally hang out sometimes'' She said with smile. Regardless I was happy she at least cheered up. I smiled back to Neptune and replied back politely ''Y-yea.. that sounds great. But can you stop giving me weird nicknames Neptune? My name is Noire for the last time, hmph.'' This girl really knows how to press my buttons. I sighs in defeat. ''yea whatever you say my royality queen'' Neptune said while snickering. My goddess please for the love of..! I hope i won't deal with this every day! is she doing this on purpose?! I'll show you Neptune! *bonks* I hit her with my fist.''Ouch Nowaru it hurts! Please mercy!'' I could no longer restrain my urge to hit her. But I realized I may regret this later. I shouldn't hit someone right? I feel bad for hitting her now. I should apologize from my behavior. ''Sorry Neptune.. for hitting you…'' Neptune in other hand seems to be enjoying this. She was.. happy. I felt relieved… that she wasn't crying at least. ''Don't worry Noirey, I'm just messing with you. I'm oki doki.'' Neptune said with a huge smile on her face. My.. heart skipped a bit. I placed my hand in my chest at this.. weird moment. What is this feeling? I feel… happy around her too. Maybe we could be really be good friends. Not that I care or anything. Sadly this moment didn't last very long. ''Noire you totes wuv me right? I'm number one protagonist at school of course you'll love me right!?'' She said happily. What is she talking about? Protagonist? … wuv me? ''Neptune can you please stop talking like that? I don't understand you at all.'' I mumbled the last part. I am confused. I'll just ignore that wuv part. ''you love me right? Noire you totally love me right? How can you not love little me?'' Neptune is getting more annoying the more I spend time with her. She keeps nagging me with this ''love me'' thing and it's starting to fill my thoughts with unnecessary things ''Neptune stop asking me weird questions!'' I said with flustered look. Why does Neptune keep pressing my buttons? My emotions are so riddled up right now. I couldn't take it anymore. Neptune is influencing me with thoughts I am not familiar with. It's giving me a headache. I just want peace and quiet now. I grabbed my bag and took out my earplugs. I'm sorry Neptune but I can't deal with you bothering me… I feel so uncomfortable with these feelings you're feeding me. I took on my earplugs and drifted away in my own thoughts but to no luck. Neptune quickly noticed i was no longer paying attention to her anymore. Please can you just stop Neptune? I thought in my head so many times but she just won't stop. She grabbed my arm and took out my earplugs. Irritated and said ''Noire Noire stop ignoring me, we're best friends right? Don't leave me!'' I couldn't take it anymore. Holding my own composure was seemingly impossible now. I was like a mountain erupting fire. Angry and couldn't control myself anymore, I grabbed Neptune furiously but surprisingly I was interrupted. ''CAN YOU TWO KEEP THIS LOVE COMEDY DRAMA ANOTHER PLACE? I'M TRYING TO READ THIS DAMNED BOOK IN PEACE.'' She screamed so loud Neptune and I couldn't muster any talk. Great now the eyes are on me again…I heard everyone snicker and giggle from every corner. can this day get any worse? I just want to bury myself now. Neptune was surprisingly alright despite the embarrassing scenario. ''Hey Blanny what are you reading?'' she asked with no fear. ''Neptune, call me that again and I'll throw you out the window.'' She said with rage. Who is this girl anyway? ''Yikes Blanc I didn't mean to make you mad. You'll have mercy on me right?'' Neptune asked in a cute voice. ''so what are you reading this time?'' Neptune asked her for the second time. I looked at Blanc or Blanny expression. Is she blushing? She's totally blushing. ''tha..- that's none of your business Neptune!'' She's blushing a lot! That's almost cute. ''geez screw that book and join our conversation. You don't want to end up like Noire do you?'' Neptune tried to squeeze her in our conversation. ''wait, what conversation? Wait… end up like me?! ''what is that supposed to mean!?'' I said furiously to Neptune. Blanc or Blanny (I think that's her names) was more calm now from her.. cute antics. ''Tsk can you not flirt with… whatever her name is another place? I'm losing focus, I'm at the good part of this novel so be quiet.'' Ignoring Neptune request open joining our talk. Honestly I don't like her attitude. ''Hey Blanny, nice to meet you. I have a name and it's Noire.'' I said proudly. I regret it a little bit cause her face expression became more darker. ''I TOLD YOU NOT TO CALL ME BLANNY. MY NAME IS BLANC YOU PIECE OF SHIT'' She said angrily to me. ''Blanc is pissty mode! Run for your life Noire!'' Neptune said jokingly. Goddess you're not helping Neptune… I thought to myself. We three caused a big scene at the bus right now. I did not imagine Neptune relentlessly teasing could lead into this. ''Neptune, you dumbass. You're confusing everyone my name with Blanny. I will break your skull dammit!'' it seemed like Blanc slowly transformed into a monstrous being. What happen to the cute brunette blushing petite girl I saw a moment ago?! ''My my such vulgar language we have here, I will not tolerate this kind of behavior in my property.'' A calm and mature voice engaged into our conversation. She was blond, tall and well endowed. Not to mention her beautiful. but what does she mean by her property? ''hmph! thunder tits is here, thank you Neptune. I don't like Vert and her stupid bouncy.. water melons. It makes me sick. Think she's mighty and all cause she can show off her balloons to everyone.'' Blanc said. Is she perhaps jealous of her? Vert immediately replied back '' ah ah ah Blanc, remember I am the class president, you shall hereby call me that. Are we clear, Blancie? Vert smirked. Wait did she just call her Blancie? I don't see this going well. ''tsk I don't care if you're class president or not. I don't want your thunder tits here.'' Blanc replied back. Just what kind of mess did I get myself into?! I asked myself while pulling my hair. ''Sup Pres, how ya doin?'' Neptune casually asked Vert. Isn't she a little too casual with her? ''oh my, who might this be Neptune? I don't recognize her at all. Is she your new friend perhaps?'' Vert looked at me with interest. ''oh this? This is the new transfer student, Noire. She's lonely so I'm sitting with her.'' Neptune's jokes are really pissing me off as well. Maybe Blanc is my preferable friend. She's quiet to say the least.. when nobody is bothering her. But Neptune?! ''I'm not lonely Neptune, stop saying weird things to the president!'' Please I want to make a good impression for the class president Neptune, don't ruin this for me! ''Well then Noire, allow me to introduce myself. I am the class president. My name is Vert but in school you will not call me by that name but president. It's nice to meet you. I hope we will get along.'' She said with confidence . I replied her back ''thank you president, i appreciate it. Can you show me around school later?'' I asked cause it is my first day after all. ''Of course, all my dear classmates needs proper guidance from yours truly.'' Vert seems to be outgoing person. Well maybe I do feel she's a bit… weird and acting like a royalty but she's no fourth wall breaker or an angry little girl. I bet Blanc would set me on ice (fire) if I told her that. But finally I get to meet someone whose… well something close to a normal human being. ''Vert, can you not act like a bitch? Looking at you behaving like this makes me so sick.'' Here we go again… does blanc know Vert? ''oh my, Blanc, your vulgar language never cease does it? Is that how you treat your president and friend?'' Vert was surprised. Thinking about it, they seem pretty close. I should ask Neptune. ''do they know each other Neptune?'' I asked this ditzy head, I should at least expect a good answer from her once awhile right? ''oh Noire? Can't you see they are a married couple?'' Neptune again jokingly said so. But Blanc looked at Neptune with intention of murdering her. ''ah cmon it's just a joke geez. Chill out will yah? They are childhood friends. How I envy them.'' I've never seen anyone like Blanc before, she might be a scary person after all. ''tsk you can take her all you want Neptune. Just take her god damned bust away from my sight.'' Blanc said. Her childhood friend, Vert however seemed to dislike the idea of leaving her childhood friend. ''my my, Blanc why do you always have to be rude with me? You remember we are still friends right?'' Vert asked somewhat nervously. I witness their.. questionable love quarrel with Neptune. ''just go already you bitch, you think you can show off because you are so popular with everyone. I especially hate you're are acting like some wannabe queen and the fact you always fake it. You get along with everyone, I'm so sick of watching it.'' Blanc said in frustration to Vert. but to my surprise Vert was in no sign of being hurt by Blancs fierce words. ''is this normal?'' I asked Neptune while whispering. ''ah yupsy, you know the drill Noire. Blanc is always like that with around Vert but she doesn't mind that much.'' She giggled and envied how close those two were. I am definitely not going into this kind of friendship with Neptune to say the least. ''sigh Blanc, I don't know why you're always mad at me. Is this still about my endowments you lack?'' Vert said with a smirk. By now I can tell this bus ride is gonna be one heck of a ride. ''I'm sorry I took your position as president Blanc, but you know very well a president is more fit to someone who's more endowed. It's symbolic of maturity and fertility qualities for a class president. And by this logic, we can say you are the least… fitting. Ver t said with a light chuckle. ''piss of Vert! goddess I can't stand you!'' Blanc was so enraged right now, after that comment from the class president herself, I understand from Blancs perspective. I felt my own chests while looking ''empathically'' on her. I'm glad have some ''qualities.'' I looked at Neptune while thinking about it. Neptune noticed my eyes glared into her chest zone. ''hm? Wassup Noirey?'' she saw my hands on my chest and immediately observed the situation clearly. ''Noire don't sexual harass little me. I may not have boobs but I'm still the cutest girl in the world!'' Neptune didn't seem bothered by it at all. My eyes slowly shifting direction back to Blanc and Vert. '' you know Blanc, even if you are my childhood friend, I will not tolerate such offensive manner.'' Vert fired back at Blanc but to no end to this discussion. ''says the thunder tits bitch who speaks in a ''politely'' manner to piss me. I'm tired of you Vert. just go to hell already. I don't want to talk to you anymore.'' Blanc replied Vert in the coldest way I've ever seen. ''sigh Blanc you are making me display such dishonoring act as the president. I apologize everyone on the behalf of my behavior with my childhood friend. It's just how we communicate.'' Vert tried to maintain her maturity. The bus finally stopped. I looked outside and saw the school building. This trip lasted so long, I hope I won't ever witness this again. Vert returned to her seat and grabbed her bag. A lot of her friends surrounded her. On her way out one of her girl friend said '' President, you should just forget Blanc, she's always something to no good. Her vulgar language is bothering everyone.'' Vert did not reply back and walked out from the bus. Blanc stood up from her seat and walked out as well. I observed her a little and could've sworn I saw tears. Poor Blanc, I should probably catch up and apologize to her. it was my fault after all. Grabbing my back and jumping out of seat, i accidently bumped into another person. ''Ouch, that hurt… oh I'm sorry about that, I am kind of in hurry so please excuse me!'' I apologized politely to him while bowing. He just looked at me… ''it's fine, I think you should hurry.'' Oh right I totally forgot about Blanc. ''I'm sorry!'' I rushed out, leaving Neptune behind with that guy in the bus.
POW:OC
Aren't you going out? I asked Neptune. ''Nah, I will once those two are finished, Nixh.'' She observed them from a distance. ''I see. What a weird sequence we had today.'' I said while looking at Blanc and Noire. ''you said it Nixh, you should've totally joined us. You might end up like Noire if you keep your distance with everyone.'' Neptune kept joking on Noire and her loneliness. ''I do what I want but thanks for the advice Neptune.'' I walked towards the door. ''do you fancy her Nixh?'' I startled a bit hearing that Neptune. I closed my eyes for seconds. ''Don't be ridiculous Neptune.'' I answered back and left Neptune. Right front of me, Noire was still apologizing for Blanc, I thought it'd best I keep a low profile so they won't notice me. I looked back and Neptune finally exit the bus. ''Truly this has been a weird day. Those 4 are something else aren't they?''
