The pain of hope is that when you lose it it's gone like a balloon when it gets too high, it pops, crashes and burns. Screw hope…..

Ugh… I'm sick of waking up in the prestigious orphanage where rich orphans go. It's the same routine every day. Wake up, get yelled at for being born, do the chores along with the other orphans (HAHA as if they would dirty their hands and help me) and then get beaten by the "warden" for being born, and then get mocked, teased, and mistreated by the other girls. Normal day right?

My physical appearance isn't that bad. I mean blonde hair, fiery orange eyes (to match a fiery spirit), a short stature and I get LOTS of exercise so I'm a little bit strong. I get lots of exercise because this damn orphanage won't hire maids because they got me. My name is Lare, Lae for short I'm 16 and I'm from Japan.

How did I end up being a richishorphan? Well my parents Lihou and Jino Chec were not good people and they only wanted a baby for the fame so you can tell how I ended up. They were also filthy rich I guess that what running a famous clothing store gets you.

Well they were careless and got drunk one night but did not hire a limo. Anyways they were in a hit and run car crash and both died on impact. My parents company was given to my rotten uncle (my only relative) and he had 'enough heart' to put me in an orphanage and leave me a quarter of the inheritance. End of story.

Ahem. Back to the story. Needless to say there aren't many kids that live in this god forsaken orphanage but the ones that do are bitter, and mean, to me at least. My story starts when I wake up on the week before school term starts. Unbeknownst to me the warden signed us up for the honor student scholarship. All of us were… surprised to say the least. Mostly because none of us had really been to school not counting elementary.

At first the dumb ones were excited because we were going to a rich people high school Ouran something or other. But then…..

"WHAT?!" screeched Whitney 1/3 of the idiots. "A test?!" Screamed the other 2/3, Gretta and Francie "Yes a test, if you want to go to this school you must pass an exam that was put together especially for you girls."

I was happy though because what the warden didn't know was that I had been taking online classes since I came here. I knew I had this in the bag because I was smarter than the dumb idiots that I lived with. "Now I guess I have to cancel my online classes" I though with a chuckle "yesyesyesyes…" I started saying under my breath.

"Hmm? What's this? The mistake speaks? Cackled Whitney. Even though they call me that on a daily basis it still hurt….. But I guess I was feeling lucky because I said "I am not a mistake but I was just saying that…" SMACK "Did I give you permission to speak you little twat?!" There was now a new mark on my face from that and it was surely going to leave a huge bruise. I decided that my luck was at a zero and I ran to my room, I didn't cry though I had already cried enough in my life to last me forever.

I put a lot of concealer on my face to hide the bruise but it was still a bit purple so I wore a yellow sweat shirt and grey yoga pants.

The next day the tests were held at the school and as I had already known it was… elegant as shit. You may not know this about me but I was not a fancy person I dressed in what were mostly known as guy's clothes and dresses were a no no. So as soon as they told me I passed (I got death stares from the dumb ones) I nearly puked when I saw the yellow puff pastry dress.

"Umm…" thinking on the spot I thought of the stupidest, idea. "I am sorry, but I happen to be a guy." I whispered to the confused Superintendent. "My deepest apologies, but your name sounded like a woman's name. I apologize Chec-kun." he whispered back handing me the 'correct' uniform.

"No no! I am sorry for not introducing myself properly, my name is Lare Chec." I said as I shook his hand. "Welcome to Ouran honors program Chec-san." He said with a warm smile "Thank youSuou-san. And please call me Lare." She said smiling back at him. "Of course Lare-kun. Here is your schedule and you are in class 1-A with the other honor student Haruhi Fujioka. The school term starts next Monday I look forward to seeing you Lare-kun." He said formally and walked away. 'Whew… That was a close one… OH CRAP! I have to be a guy! What was I thinking? Oh well, I hope this doesn't cause me trouble…'

Well I am a horrible person…. IM SORRY PLEASE FORGIVE ME! I have decided to continue this story but I did some MAJOR editing on the first chapter but I am mainly focused on the second chapter. Yea... So I'm sorry if this chapter sucks butt… Just read the next chapter and I'm POSITIVE that it will be better than this one. Reviews are appreciated, and all that. THANKS FOR READING
