Chapter 1 Amy's POV

"This is the student council room."Shirley said, leading me into a room.

When we walked in, there were several people there. A blonde girl sat on a table, two dark haired boys also at the table, there was also a girl in the computer.

"Oh, hello. You must be the new student we've been waiting for." said the blonde.

She jumped off the table and walked to me." Hi, I'm Milly, student council president."

"The girl over there is Nina, that's Rivalz, and the dark haired boy is Lelouch."She said to me. Lelouch was really cute, and had beautiful violet eyes. Then she turned to everybody else."Everybody, this is Amy Markson. She's new here, so be nice."

Rivalz looked up at me."Markson…Markson… where have I heard that name before?"

"Doesn't you're father own a big business?" Lelouch asked.

"Yes, he does."I said.

"Oh yeah! That's it! He owns a business for the military." Rivalz said suddenly.

I sighed."Yeah. Can we please not talk about my father?"

"Ok, maybe you can help us with these papers?" Rivalz asked.

Milly hit Rivals in the head with some rolled up paper."No! You have to do it for missing school yesterday!"

"Geez, sorry I asked!" Rivalz said as Milly hit him again.

" They argue a lot." Nina said to me in a quiet voice.

I smiled." Thanks for the warning."

I looked back to them to see Lelouch staring at me. Did I have something on my face? Was my hair all messed up?
Milly suddenly hit Lelouch in the head." Stop staring, it's rude!"

He glanced at me once more then went back to his papers.

It was my name. It was because of my name! He was probably thinking of all the rumors swarming around my last name. How I hated my father!

I know that, at some point soon, that Lelouch will ask me if the rumors about my father were true. I sighed at the thought.

Lelouch POV

I quickly turned on my laptop, completely forgetting about everything else. I waited impatiently as the computer turned on.

"Something on your mind?" C.C asked.

"Yes." I simply answered and looked out my window.

I quickly typed in Markson in a search engine. C.C walked and looked over my shoulder.

"Markson? Aren't they some rich family who makes weapons for the military?" She asked." Why are you looking them up?"

I didn't answer her.

"They aren't of any use, are they?" She asked.

"I'm not sure yet."I said just to shut her up.

I glanced out the window again. Amy was there, walking with Milly and Shirley. She was smiling; her silky brown hair was blowing in the breeze.

"Is that her? The girl with the brown hair?"C.C. asked.

"Yes. That's Amy Markson." I said, still watching her.

"Lelouch, you're staring."C.C. said.

I looked away from the window to look at the computer.

"I heard that her father was a cruel man."C.C. said."I also heard that he abuses his children."

That caught my attention." Abuses his children?"

C.C. shrugged. "Just a rumor. Maybe."

I looked out the window again. The pretty girl with the hazel eyes and long brown hair. Her father a rich man. I needed to know if the rumors were true. I needed to know if she was ever abused.

Then, a thought occurred to me, why should I care? She was just a new girl from some rich family. But I couldn't help but think of her…
