Chapter 1: New Introductions
The classroom of 4-1 was pretty noisy as usual. All were busy chatting with their classmates, screaming, shouting, arguing, and gossiping. Except for one.
A certain auburn orbed brunette was quiet. Nothing unusual about it really as he was known for his cool demeanor. His fan following had increased over the years and now being in the last year of high school, he was the most desired senior of the school.
But that really didn't matter much to him. Life was ok. Life had always been ok for him until two blondes and a cat-dog creature had entered his life, stayed at his house. They were his family.
He missed Ruu and Wanya. He considered Ruu and Wanya very close to his heart. Those aliens did create havoc in his life, but it was a good kind of havoc. And his partner in handling such nerve wrecking situations was a cute but totally klutzy blonde girl, Miyu.
He was as usual quiet, looking outside the window. But his thoughts weren't.
He had missed those aliens but he missed that girl dearly. Of course, there was no admitting to that even after he was asked and teased by his father and his friends.
Yes, they did keep in touch. Calls were a bit frequent in the beginning months but since life went on they got busy by the moment. Kanata was still in the student council and his responsibilities grew with his post. Miyu, too, got busy with her extracurricular activities.
So the calls were cut down to once or twice a month. Miyu never came back. Every vacation her parents took her some place or the other.
Kanata never considered visiting. He doesn't know why. Or maybe he does. (A/N: read last chapter of 'only the two of us.')
So today was the second day of the fourth year of high school. Friends were busy greeting each other.
Sensei Harukashi walked in. She was a small petite lady but don't let her looks deceive you. She was quite strict and scary when it came to having mannered and disciplined students.
"Good morning, class." she greeted her students. The class greeted her back.
Just then a knock was heard and the sensei turned her head. "Oh sorry! I forgot." The class fell silent.
"Well class, we have new students joining us this year. Please come in."
Kanata heard girls squeal as soon as a boy with black wavy hair and amber eyes walked in.
"Oh gosh! He's so handsome!"
"Yeah he is. But Saionji-kun is still unmatched."
"I doubt that. He looks pretty cool."
"Wow, two handsome guys in our class. This will be a good year! Hehehe."
Kanata heard these statements from the lovestruck girls in his class. Well really he didn't care. He would be grateful if these girls switched their interest from him to the new guy and let him be in peace.
He glanced at the new guy and just then their teacher called out to him.
"Hello everyone. I'm Nakahara Raiden"
"Ooooh", the girls drooled.
"Thank you Nakahara-san. Now there's an empty seat near the window. You could sit there." The teacher pointed out.
He thanked her and took his seat. It was just next to Kanata's. Kanata's view of the window was obstructed.
"Saionji-kun is our class president and he is a very responsible student." the sensei stated. All the girls nodded in agreement.
"Saionji-kun." Sensei called out. Kanata stood up.
"Please show Nakahara-san around the school during break time."
"Sure sensei." Kanata replied and sat down.
Raiden shook hands with Kanata following the introductions.
Lectures began and the day went on. It was break time and after having lunch Kanata toured Raiden around the school. He preferred going near the end of the break since the hallways would be a bit empty and he could hope to be spared from the following around by his massive fan club's members.
"Saionji-kun, thanks for showing me around. I don't know anyone here. So I hope we could be friends." Raiden spoke while they were touring.
"Sure." replied Kanata and then the bell rang.
"Crap. Break's over. Let's hurry back." said Kanata and walked quickly towards the class and Raiden followed. They were in the other wing of the school.
Finally they reached their floor. There was no noise coming from the classroom indicating that the lecture has started.
As Kanata neared the class, he heard the sensei speak about some another new student.
As soon as he reached he saw something, or rather someone who made his heart stop.
"Miyu…" the name escaped his lips as he saw a girl with the same long silky blonde hair let open. She turned to look at him and so did the entire class.
Her emerald orbs were still the same, the same beauty and innocence in them. She smiled at him.
Kanata was gaping and he was snapped back to reality at the sensei's words, "Saionji-kun, please come in and take your seat. You are already five minutes late."
Kanata nodded and went to his seat. Raiden followed him.
"Now, Kouzuki-san, introduce yourself."
She nodded and started, "Hello everyone. I'm Kouzuki Miyu. As some of you may know I'm not actually a newcomer here. I had been in this school during middle school. I'm glad to be back here for my last schooling year and also to see all these familiar faces."
Nanami and Aya waved to her in excitement. Miyu waved back. And she turned to Kanata and she could see him still processing what was happening. She chuckled mentally.
"Kouzuki-san, you can sit near the window, behind Nakahara-san."

"Hi. I'm Nakahara Raiden. And you are Kouzuki san, right?"

"BAKA OYAJI! NOT AGAIN?!"
