Yumei: Greetings! This is my second fic (I deleted the first one 'because it's so darn bad). I hope you won't get bored with it. I expect only a few to check this fanfic out. At least R&R. It's like you're doing a favor for me without me even expecting it.

Disclaimer: Don't own Clamp or Clamp School. That's all you need to know.

Chapter 1

Yuki-Onna's POV

It occurred one morning inside the campus. It was the first day of classes. It was a new year for us fifth graders and we were up and about, excited about our new classmates and teachers. Not me. I did not like a new school year for I disliked being embarrassed in front of my new classmates that don't even know me. If I do something that might make them think I'm a buffoon, they'll remember me as the fool of the classroom.

Why do I think of such? I'm quite like your typical klutz, always messing things up. Often times I'm always the cause of problems and I'm always blamed for it, although sometimes I did not do it. I recalled my bitter memory of last year. They kept on laughing at me, always gossiping about me. Most of the time, I'm the main topic of their chatter. I did not have any friends and I was always alone. It was like this ever since I was accepted in Clamp School. I grew to be a loner as well as a klutz.

That is why I hate new school years. I also noticed some of my classmates in my previous years are still my classmates. I despised them all, but I wouldn't blame them. That is how pre-teenage girls would behave, although I did not experience being in those groups. It is only natural that they laugh and gossip all about me. But somehow, deep within me, there exists a heart scarlet in rage. My mind was not angry but it seems my heart disagrees.

Because of this, I was never contented in my life, without knowing why. But I have an idea. It is my heart. It is not contented and hungers for revenge. But why is it like this? Why is it that my heart is angry at those girls who gossiped all about me when I was younger? I never really desired to get revenge on them but my heart does. I don't want to hurt anyone so I keep my feelings in the inside of me.

My heart burned almost into ashes until I noticed someone enter the classroom. It was a young man who had entered the room. He had silky blue hair and a pair of beautiful golden eyes. My burning heart seemed to have cooled off and instead it beat violently. I gaped at his face for quite a period of time. I saw him looking at me. It seemed that he had noticed me. My eyes widened even more when his eyes met with mine.

I looked away from him and shook my head. What in the world is happening to me? I don't understand at all. Is this what other girls call love? No way am I falling for him! It can't be... it shouldn't be... why in the world is this happening this to me?

Takamura-sama is my complete opposite. I'm a complete klutz while he's a ninja-blooded bishounen. I'm a loner and he has friends on his side. He's a great person who girls look up to while I'm just like air to my classmates. No way is he going to fall for me — ever. But hey...

What in the world am I saying? I'm not falling for him... it is impossible. It is impossible for me to fall for someone just like that. I know I never fell in love and I know I will never do. Oh this is just great. My mind and my heart are having an argument again. My heart keeps on insisting to "go for it" but I disagree. My mind and I are most of the time hand in hand when it comes to complicated decisions like this.

But I've got to admit my heart is right. I mean, I never felt this sentiment before, ever. I think I really am falling in love for the first time. But that means I'll be distracted even more. If I lose my concentration on my academics, I'll be known as the klutz of the class once, just like before. I'm sick and tired of being known as the buffoon of my batch. I can't take it any longer. My head is about to explode.

Although I said to myself I won't be distracted by him anymore, I still observed him, from when he entered the classroom to when he sat down to his seat. I saw him prepare his things for the next subject matter. I heard some groups of girls started chit-chatting when Takamura-sama entered. I looked at them and sighed.

"They never learn."

I looked back at Takamura-sama and gazed upon his gorgeous face. My eyes seemed to have been glued to him. Although I tried to move my eyes away from him, it seemed that my mind was taken over by my heart. I sensed that some girls were looking at me but I didn't care. All I wanted to behold was Takamura-sama.

What am I saying again? I have to focus. I must be losing my mind over him. I can feel my heart beating violently even more. I felt my cheeks. I had wished for my cheeks not to turn red, or he'll sense me again, just like what he did a while ago. But alas, I was blushing. Fortunately, he did not look at me this time but I knew he still sensed me. After all, he had the blood of a ninja.

I shook my head once more. I slapped myself softly. I held my temple, to ensure I wasn't coming up with a fever, although I wanted to get sick so I won't be able to attend classes today. If my parents had found out that I'm ill, they would kill me and blame me for being sick.

The bell rang. Classes were about to begin. Everyone made sure that they were prepared for the first morning subject. I could see teachers rushing to their respective advisory classes. There was even a teacher who tripped. I still couldn't believe that I'm going to be classmates with Takamura-sama. Oh well. Maybe that's what destiny intended.

Yumei: So did you like it? It's not much, if I do say so myself. I still need some suggestions for the next chapter. I haven't thought up of it yet. If you want me to continue it, please R&R. Ja ne!
