Finally... I thought walking down the slippery winter road. It was January 3rd; Winter Break was almost over. I'm so happy! Winter break's almost over and then I can see my friend again! Yay yay YAY! My name is Chikanori, Chikanori Maru. I have one friend, well real friend. My best friends name is Mami Lea. I walked back to my house to get away from the extreme cold, after all, my favorite season is summer. I ran fast accidentally slipping on ice and falling on my face giving me a cut on my cheek but a minor one. I got up and went inside finally.

"HEY MOM! MAKE ME HOT CHOCOLATE PLEASE!" I yelled.

"Okay!" my mother gladly replied.

"OH ALSO SOME RAMEN!"

"Sure Chikanori."

Going back to my room, I looked outside my window noticing there was something on the road... Blood surrounded it. I rushed outside; my mom was not asking why knowing I'm not some kid who'd so something dangerous. My mom trusts me. As I rushed outside, I saw a dead furry animal. Oh god... Oh god oh god oh god! I screamed inside my head where no one heard me.

"NO!" I finally cried out loud, but no one heard me after all, no one was outside. "Why did a rabbit die? Why? Why? Why couldn't it be something, anything else?!" My favorite animal was a rabbit. I didn't cry, but I was torn apart on the inside. I left that scene going back to my house.

|TIME SKIP 4 DAYS LATER|

Getting my new black and white striped backpack, I walked over to my mom who had my new Orange and blue shirt and ripped jeans. I slipped them on as excitement filled my body.

"YAY! FINALLY, SCHOOL IS HERE!" I yelled outside running to my school. I saw Mami in front of me on the way. Hey, Mami! Mami cocked her head and saw me. She turned backward and waited for me to catch up with her.

"Oh, OH! HI! It's been so long since I've seen you like two whole weeks!" Mami stated.

"C'mon you probably forgot about me, I know you did," I said smirking.

"What? No. How could I forget about somebody as weird as you?" We both laughed at that. We ran to school to get there earlier than the other students.

"Aw!" we both complained. "We don't have any classes together!"

"Darn, well see you then later!" Mami said.

We went to our first-hour class. We were both 17 we were third years of upper school. I sprinted to my first-hour class which was English. Crap, I'm horrible at English.

I got to English class being about the 4th student. Well, I'm pretty early. I saw the teacher up at her desk. She was a Tall had blonde hair and was cute. I'm a bit short although not to much. I have red hair and have green eyes. As I studied the teacher, the remaining kids of the class came in. All the desks, full. I sat down at my desk and stopped staring at the teacher so weirdly.

"Alright, class."

"Wow she's a cute teacher but her voice is low, and she's not the peppy type more like the usual teacher type." The boys were murmuring about the teachers appearance. So cliche. I thought. Boys aren't bad in my opinion, just the majority of them are annoying usually. Our teacher is from America and speaks fluent Japanese. Americans do have weird accents. I declared in my head. Boys aren't bad in my opinion, just the majority of them are annoying usually. Our teacher is from America and speaks fluent Japanese. Americans do have weird accents. I thought. I, not knowing it fell asleep somehow once there were 5 minutes of class left. She gave us that 5 minutes to get started on our homework so she didn't know I fell asleep on accident, she thought I preferred to take a nap, and didn't wake me up. Once it was time to leave I thankfully heard the ruckus of the students leaving and woke up. I got up trying to act normally which I didn't fail to do. As I was getting up, I didn't turn to look if anyone was there and stepped on someone's leg.

"SORRY!" I yelled, happily not catching anyone's attention besides the other person I stepped on. I looked up at him and saw he looked pretty cute close-up but he looked sad somehow... Or was it just he looked scary? Whatever. He was about 5'10, and I'm 5'5. I feel so short. He had black straight but messy hair. He had a gray sweater and jeans, dark jeans. His eye color was red and he was slim. I noticed I was staring at him for about three seconds. Our eyes met for those three seconds once he cut off the awkwardness.

"It's okay." He said walking away fast, his voice sounding rushed. Only looking at me when he felt me stepping on his toe for a second. He didn't even look at me after. He was already out of the room, hands in his pockets.

"Ugh," I complained. 6th hour is next which is math. At least, it's my final hour, but my worst hour. I was first to get into the class. The teacher for our class was pretty old, he apparently was the oldest teacher in the school. I eyed him, he looked about 60. The door opened and the next student was that guy from earlier. I thought if I should ask him what his name was or just sit there. I felt a bit embarrassed to ask a guy who I stepped on what his name was when I most likely wasn't going to talk to him ever again, but I asked him anyway.

"HEY, YOU!" He tilted his head to look at me. He was silent waiting for a question and released it was me. He opened his eyes as if he was shocked.

"Yes?" He finally asked.

"Um... W-Well I wanted t-to know your n-n-n-name." I stuttered.

"Raiden Harumo." He didn't stutter at all giving away his name to me. He then continued walking to his desk 4 spaces behind me and one to the right. (I know what you're thinking, He was NOT sitting next to the window, and she wasn't also.) Class went by and school ended. Chikanori met up with Mami.

"Oh my gosh, Mami! Something weird happened during the first hour!"

"What happened?"

"So, there's this guy that I accidentally stepped on his toe and he was very anti-social... but he was pretty cute."

"Wow, stepping on his toe? He must have been in serious pain!"

"Your sarcasm shows off by the way."

"Well, anyway, how did he look? How did he act?"

"Hmm, well first off he was about 5'10 I think and he had black hair and it was straight, but it was messy and it still looked kind of cool. His face showed an expression of agony and hatred though... Oh! He also was wearing a black sweater and some jeans."

"Agony and hatred you say? Seems like a weird guy."

"He seems interesting... I want to know him a bit more."

"Your call, not holding you back."

|TIME-SKIP AT CHIKANORI'S HOUSE IN BED AT 10:14 PM AFTER SCHOOL|

I put my hand over my stomach and the other on top of my head. I can't stop thinking of what Mami said, and... that guy. Mami said he seemed weird by my descriptions.. should I just leave him alone? I think I should but she indicated that I should do whatever I want by saying "Your call is not holding you back." Ugh, I don't know. I guess I'll just talk to him if I feel like it. Then I fell asleep.

I woke up next morning pumped to get ready to go to school for whatever reason.
