A/N: AHHHHHH! First fanfic in FOREVER! This is probably going to be a short one, 5 chapters at the most. It was originally going to be a one-shot, but it seemed too long so I decided to spread it out into a few chapters. I REALLY hope you enjoy it.
DISCLAIMER: This fanfic is based off of the Hatsune Miku song Rolling Girl. I do not own the song or the character Hatsune Miku, both belong to their rightful owners.
A small child with short teal pigtails sits on the ground with her face buried in her knees, small sobs emitting from her occasionally. People pass by her without even looking her way, as though she were invisible. She looks up, her eyes pink and puffy and her cheeks with silver tears rolling down them as she hiccups quietly.
"I'm alright," she mumbles, even though not a soul was listening.
...
A young girl sits at her desk quietly, looking out the window as she unconsciously scribbles in her notebook. Always the same thing, always perfectly written: "Today I'll roll once more."
"Everyone, we have a new student coming in today," the teacher says from the front of the room. They girl looks up to see a young boy. He's rather normal, dark eyes and dark hair.
"Lucky him…" she mumbles, pushing her teal bangs from her eyes and flipping one of her long pigtails back slightly.
"This is Watanabe Souta, he's coming from Osaka."
"It's a pleasure to meet you," Souta says with a smile. The girl's bright teal eyes look back out the window, dismissing him. Souta had been watching her for a while. Her hair was so unique and attention grabbing and stood out from all the heads of black hair.
"Well, Mr. Watanabe, it looks like the only seat available is in front of Ms. Hatsune," the teacher says. The girl's head snaps up from the sound of her name. Souta smiles at her as he walks to the empty desk in front of her. "Ms. Hatsune, please be sure to help Mr. Watanabe around the school." The girl nods as she looks back out the window. Souta turns in his desk to face her.
"Hey, nice to meet you, my name's Watanabe Souta," he says with a smile.
"Hatsune Miku," she replies monotonously. His smile disappears as he returns his attention to the teacher.
...
"Hey, Hatsune-san, would you have lunch with me?" Souta asks the girl who was walking out the room. She turns to face him with a look of shock on her face. A group of girls begin whispering to each other and she looks at them.
"You don't want to do that," she mumbles as her gaze turns towards the ground. A pair of shoes suddenly enters her vision and she looks up to see him there, smiling.
"Of course I do. Now where do you usually eat? I'm starving." Her wide eyes stare at him for a moment before she turns and walks out the room. He follows her out and down the hallways, where everyone simply stares at the two. She climbs up the stairs and opens the door to the roof, stepping out into the sunlight. She opens up the bag she has with her and pulls out a pink picnic blanket. He helps her lay it onto the ground near a cluster of flower pots filled with an array of flowers. She also pulls out a small watering can and waters the flowers as Souta sits on the blanket and opens his bento.
"No one ever comes up here. They don't even know about the flowers. It's just me, so I can do what I want," Miku says. Souta stares at her for a while and she looks at him after sitting and taking out her lunchbox. "What?"
"That's the most you've spoken to me all day. I liked it." Miku blushes as she opens her lunchbox and pulls out a sandwich.
"Let's just eat, okay?" she asks before taking a bite. Souta smiles and nods.
...
Okay, so, who knows the answer to this question?" the teacher asks. The class sits quietly as she scans the room. Her eyes land on a patch of teal and she smiles. "Ms. Hatsune?" Miku jumps and slowly looks towards the teacher. "Do you know the answer to this?"
-5x + 20 = 25
Miku stares at the board and shakes her head. The teacher sighs and raises her voice slightly, "Guess, Ms. Hatsune."
"…1?" Miku asks. Souta flinches and the teacher shakes her head as students snicker. "Mr. Watanabe?"
"Negative one, ma'am," Souta says. The teacher smiles and writes the answer on the board then begins to write another question. Miku buries her face in her hands and whispers over and over "It's okay, I'm alright," as children continue to snicker.
...
"Hey, Bakane, nice job getting that simple question wrong," a boy says to Miku. His friends laugh and she continues walking. Souta glares at the boys before running to catch up with Miku.
"Don't let that bother you, that question was pretty hard," he tells her with a smile.
"That's why you got it right on the first try, right?" she says bitterly.
"I struggled a bit," he mumbles.
"No you didn't! Just admit it, I'm stupid and you think it just like everyone else does!"
"That's not true, Miku!" They stop on a corner as they wait for a walk sign. "I don't think you're stupid at all. I find you rather interesting."
"Yeah? Well, no one else does…" They walk in silence for a while before Souta asks:
"Where are we going anyways? There are no houses out here."
"I'm just… following my routine…" she mumbles. They come across an area with many hills, flowers on top of a few of them. Miku begins climbing on and Souta follows. "I do this every Friday…" When they reach the top, Miku pulls a small flower out of her bag and digs a hole in the ground. She plants the flower and smiles ruefully.
"Did you plant all of those?" Souta asks as he gestures to the other hills. Miku nods and throws her bag down the hill. "Why did you do that?"
"I don't want to come back up for it…" She takes a deep breath before throwing herself down the hill.
"Miku!" Souta cries as he runs after her. She flips and tumbles down the hill before landing face up at the foot of it. she lets out a long breath and closes her eyes, cuts across her body stinging her slightly. Souta kneels next to her and pulls her up until she is sitting. "Why?!" She looks up at him as she wipes a small trickle of blood from her cheek.
"…I find it fun," she says smiling.
