Hello, my fellow Hana Yori Dango fans! And welcome to my new fanfic! :-D
First Kiss – a story of two childhood sweethearts, often times paired by their parents since they could remember and due to some circumstances, these two children grew up hating each other. And with just a kiss, will their hate for each other be changed into love? TxT
Disclaimer: I don't own Hana Yori Dango or any of its wonderful characters. Just read and review. And just a make-up for everyone who ahs been waiting for an update to my other fanfic, Wonderland. I'm really sorry everyone. My computer was reformatted and all my documents were deleted so I might need to read and re-make the chapter that was lost. Really sorry. :) I do hope that you'll appreciate this one as much as you love Wonderland. :) And again, I didn not base this on the anime/drama version.
Twelve Years Ago...
It was a night of festivity and the whole city was celebrating a festival. It was where women usually dressed up with their kimonos and the Domyouji family decided to celebrate it with the Makino family. Their young ones, Tsukasa Domyouji and Tsukushi Makino, were both on the takoyaki stand. Both have their own share of takoyakis. And because Tsukasa's clumsiness, his own takoyaki was spilled over Tsukushi's red kimono printed with Sakura flowers. That made Tsukushi cry and since Tsukasa wants her to stop crying, he kissed her. Not just a kiss – a real kiss! And yes, it was on the lips!

"Alright! I got your point, mom!" Tsukushi suddenly stopped those scenes on her head. It was very frustrating for her that her mother uses that particular part of her childhood on her own advantage. It was really very frustrating for the seventeen year old young lady to have that kind of childhood memory. "Fine! I'll invite that Tsukasa Domyouji on my eighteenth birthday! Happy now?" she almost yelled, her eyes shrinking and eyebrows meeting at the center of her forehead.
Mrs. Makino seemed so happy, on the other hand. For once again, she had what she wants from her daughter. Their family has been a good friend to the Domyoujis and it's just fair that her daughter will have the finest escort for her grand debut. Sure there are other more fishes on the sea, but Tsukasa Domyouji is the finest catch among them. And yes, she likes him for her daughter.
"That's good to hear then. I'm really happy that you're cooperating with me, Tsukushi." Her mother smiled sweetly at her while giving her a tight embrace. Tsukushi was not able to embrace her mother back, instead she rolled her eyes secretly.

"Do you really have to remind me of that incident?" Tsukasa Domyouji made a comment on her mother as she was giving him a brief detail of him kissing young Tsukushi twelve years ago. "I already told you I'm going. Geez mom, how annoying can you be?" he sarcastically commented.
His mother, who was smiling contentedly awhile back, suddenly looked at her son with daggered eyes. She made a quick but light slap on her own son's shoulder. "I know you, Tsukasa!" she told him coldly. "Remember when you promised you'd accompany Shigeru on Paris to buy her purse but you didn't? Instead, you went to New York and watched Harry Potter! New York, Tsukasa! New York!" his mother ranted.
Tsukasa couldn't help but laugh at that moment and again, his mother gave a slap on his shoulder. "That was totally embarrasing to their family, Tsukasa!" she told him flatly.
"Mom?!" Tsukasa called out for seize-fire. "Could you hit my other shoulder as well? This one's numb already, neh?"
"TSUKASA!"

"So, what is your plan?" Yuki, Tsukushi's best friend, suddenly asked her. Yuki made a visit on the Makino's mansion that same afternoon and Tsukushi relayed her about her parents' plan on making Tsukasa as her escort. "You already asked Rui to be your escort."
Tsukushi sighed at that fact. Rui Hanazawa has always been her crush since grade school. "I don't know, Yuki!"she told her best friend matter-of-factly. "And I don't want Tsukasa over Rui! I have long planned to spend that precious night of my life with Rui and no way that Tsukasa will ruin it." She strongly speaks it while drawing her white curtains and with the view that came into her, it was as if Tsukushi wants to murder someone.
At their garden area, Tsukasa was slouching alongside her parents and his mother as well. Tsukasa, as if having the sense that someone was watching him, turned his head on Tsukushi's way. Both of them stared at each other as if waiting for the other to attack.
"ARGH!! What is he doing here?" Tsukushi drew back the curtains and without any further informations, Yuki already knew who she was talking about. And just to make sure, Yuki gave a quick glance and indeed, she saw Tsukasa who is now having a sip of his own cup of tea. She even saw Tsukushi's mother talking to one of their servants and pointed at their direction.
"Well, I probably need to get going now, Tsukushi." It seems like your presence will be needed over there." she said and pointed at where the Domyoujis and her parents are. "Ja matta neh?"

Author's Notes: I probably would assume that you already know that the Makinos and the Domyoujis are friends and that they are of the same level. I'm just trying to see if Tsukushi x Tsukasa will still work without one of them being rich while the other is poor. :-)
And I'm sorry, this is just a short one. I'll try to make the next one longer. I need to have a rest now because I currently have an illness.
I miss you everyone! *super hug* for everyone! (^_^)
