This story though is kind of different from the normal behaviour of Tamaki and Haruhi. it's sort of like i just used their names for my story. Well, just so you wouldn't be surprised, Haruhi is kind of like the sporty type while Tamaki is this cool and arrogant guy here.

Hope you enjoy reading it and hope you'll review!

1. First Sight

"No way mom! I am never gonna have a tutor!" Tamaki Suoh loudly revolted. He was in his room playing computer games when his mom suddenly

went in and told him about having a tutor.

His mom stood beside him and placed her hands on his shoulders. His gaze was still fixed on his character in the game.

"You don't have any choice dear. We had a deal that if your grades would not improve after your last grading period, I would have to get you a

tutor."

He unwillingly averted his gaze to his mom and tried to see if she really meant what she said and was depressed to see her sympathetic face. He

could see laugh lines in her mom's face which showed that she really had aged but it was still obvious that she was beautiful during her younger

years. He had always seen his mom like an angel but that time, he couldn't help himself to think that she was his Doom Queen. He turned back his

eyes to the computer and suddenly lacked the delight to continue playing. His mom continued to say more things about his having-a-tutor thing

but he didn't bother to listen at all. She must have sensed his inattentiveness because he heard her sigh then went out of the room.

He grunted and swore while shutting down his computer then threw himself into his bed. He couldn't blame his mom for doing such thing because

he absolutely knew that his grades in Calculus weren't doing well. But having a tutor! He detested such idea.

He suddenly felt a spasm of fear when he imagined how his friends would react to that. It would certainly ruin the image he had built for three

years in high school. His image of coolness and carefree figure shouldn't be shattered, it mustn't be shattered!

He had the legacy of being the sporty guy in school during their last promenade, was Mr. Popular, a certified heartthrob in there campus. It was so

off the hook if everyone would hear any thing of him having a tutor. He couldn't bear the shame it would bring him. He wouldn't allow it. She

couldn't make him. But then he realized how futile his revulsions were. He had to ask his mom again. He had to make sure that this wasn't his

doom. And with that, he unconsciously fell asleep.

"Hey, are you still going to play soccer today?" Tamaki suddenly heard his friend Kyouya asked him. He realized he was really rankled with what

his mom had told him that night.

He put up a grin and tried to clear his mind from the irritating thought. "This rain wouldn't stop me from playing."

"I thought so. I guess you don't want to let those girls down." Kyouya smirked looking at the group of girls who were obviously staring at their

direction then elbowed him. He just grinned out of something to say and didn't bother to look at the girls. He was still not in the mood to enjoy any

display of attraction from anyone. His friend excused himself which he thought was a good thing for him to be alone and stared dejectedly outside.

He was seated nearest to the window of their room so when he gets bored he could instantly turn his attention to the people in the campus park

or the "other" guys who know how to play soccer too as well as to show off.

He irritatingly remembered what her mom said that morning. "I've already gotten you one now so don't try to win over this matter anymore for

you'll only be wasting your time." Her mom was talking about the tutor she had gotten for him.

"Whatever mom," he muttered sourly under his breath. He suddenly felt two arms curled around his neck. He turned to confirm his hugger. It was

Kanoya, the most popular cheerleader in their campus. Her boobs were sort off flattened against his back and when he turned his head their faces

were only inches apart.

She was wearing her usual seductive smile revealing her straight rows of teeth. "Hey there handsome, did you miss me?"

Everybody in their campus thinks that they have a serious relationship going on, that she was his and vice versa. But it wasn't like that at all. The

two of them had no commitment to each other yet they still linger together for a reason. It was cool for their image. What would be a much more

perfect pair than a popular basketball team captain and a gorgeous cheerleader?

She moved and quickly sat on his lap with her arms still around his neck. The other guys in there couldn't help but feel jealous looking at their very

intimate position.

"You gonna play this afternoon, huh? I'll be there to cheer for you." He noticed her stealing a glance at the people in there, maybe checking if they

are still watching.

He tried to hide his amusement by smiling sweetly. "I'll expect that." He couldn't help overhearing the other girls' giggles in there. And they

successfully tricked their classmates with their public display of affection.

After class, Tamaki was met by an unwelcome order from his mom. To go home directly. Which only meant missing his soccer game that afternoon.

He reluctantly drove his Mercedes Benz and maneuvered his way to their house. Not knowing who was waiting there for him.

Haruhi Fujioka wasn't expecting any arrangements that afternoon and was clearly surprised when her teacher asked her to see the school's

superintendent. She had met her once when all the top rankers in their school were given the chance to have a scholarship. It was one of her

luckiest day. She received full scholarship and an allowance every month which greatly helps her in her schooling.

She was alone. Her parents had died from a car accident and it happened when she was in her second year in high school. She knew that what

happened had to give her strength to continue moving on. And she had a great job of moving on as she continued to do well in her studies and

was even one of the running graduating valedictorian in their school.

She was quite disconcerted to know that she was going with the Superintendent to their house. And there she was already, seated uncomfortably

in the overly spacious and elegant living room of Mrs. Suoh, the superintendent. She almost hung up in a daze seeing how beautiful and inviting

the woman's two-storey house was. She was still admiring the flat Plasma television there showing a clip from the Discovery Channel about tribal

women when Mrs. Suoh spoke and told her the reason on why she had to really go with her in her mansion.

Mrs. Suoh patiently waited for her reply. All she managed to do was to stare at Mrs. Suoh in great disbelief.

"So, would you accept my offer, Ms. Fujioka?" She wasn't used to be called by her last name but she didn't notice it.

"Tutoring your son, Ma'am?" she couldn't help hide her displeasure while confirming if she really heard it right. Mrs. Suoh nodded and seemed to

have missed the disapproval in her tone.

She almost blurted out that it was absolutely impossible. The idea was ridiculous and she was lucky to still manage to keep a steady expression

under Mrs. Suoh gaze.

"Tamaki Suoh?" Haruhi repeated the name and ceased herself from rolling her eyes.

The woman nodded and smiled a hesitant smile. She quickly thought that maybe the woman knew her son's behavior in school. Then knew she

was right for why would Mrs. Suoh hire a tutor for him if she didn't know that his son was the popular sleaze in school and only excel in extra

curricular activities leaving his academics way, way far behind.

"I really don't ———" she was suddenly interrupted when someone came in speaking.

"Mom, what is this urgent thing that you want to talk with me?"

They both looked at Tamaki Suoh who looked surprised seeing her presence in their house. Mrs. Suoh instantly stood up, beaming at her son.

"Tamaki, I'd like you to meet your tutor, Ms. Fujioka."

He looked at her for a fraction of second then yelled, "Her?!" He looked at his mom like she was halfway close to insanity. He then looked at her

again and she met her gaze with the same disgust that he had just relentlessly expressed. How rude, she thought.

"Tamaki! Where are your manners?" His mom bellowed at him, eyeing him sharply. He avoided her gaze and rolled his eyes.

Mrs. Suoh excused herself with her son for a while, maybe to successfully convince his son to have her as his tutor. Haruhi couldn't hope but to let

his stubbornness win over his mom. She couldn't imagine herself tutoring such a mean and arrogant clod. She knew him. Guys like him weren't

new to him. She knew them too well.

The two went back and both had interesting expressions printed on their faces. One bore an apprehensive expression while the other was an

annoyed one. She knew that Mrs. Suoh could not win over his son over that matter, what with his irritated response when he arrived. It was clear

how he detested such idea which goes mutually to her. She could not wait to get out of that house, away from him. But to her absolute dismay,

Mrs. Suoh started to speak saying, "Is it okay if the tutorial would start this coming Saturday, Haruhi?"

Her heart missed a beat and she could only stare at the lady before realizing what she was doing and managed to nod out of nothing to say. And

that was the start of her undeniable acquaintance with her ostracized tutee.
