Disclaimer: I don't own Hana-Kimi or it's characters. The only living being that can truthfully say that is Hisaya Nakajo, and I believe she is a goddess for creating the series…The only characters I own are the ones from my own creation.

Author's Note: Sorry, I know I've already written this once before but it has been two years since I wrote it and I was just recently reminded that I started it. I promise I'll try my hardest not to forget it this time. I am currently re-writing it because I think I got a little fire happy when I first wrote it and burned the rest of the story. I'll do my best to remember the basics of what happened. I've also re-written the first chapter because I'm pretty sure two years of high school English and a semester of Creative Writing has improved my writing skills.

WARNINGS: As my writing has evolved so has my vocabulary and I would like to warn you about foul language and possibly a slight bit of sexual conduct. I don't remember exactly what chapter the sexual conduct comes into play because I have been trying to catch up with myself and have been writing say ten stories at once. So, yeah, sorry.

Chapter 1

"School starts again tomorrow" Mizuki exclaimed excitedly as she, Sano, and Nakatsu were walking home from the "Osaka" restaurant

"Sano, what did you think of Osaka's food?" Nakatsu asked ignoring Mizuki's comment for the first time.

"It was okay," Sano muttered quietly.

Once they arrived back at the Osaka High dormitories the group split up. Sano and Mizuki went to their room as Nakatsu went to his own. It was already late and they needed their rest for the new term.

The next morning, at breakfast a young man, with blonde hair that stopped at his hips, was looking for a place to sit even with no one allowing him to sit with them. He headed toward Mizuki's table when Nakao tripped him. The poor blond not only fell but, landed face first in his food. "That'll teach you to get close to my Nanba-kun" Nakao exclaimed. The boy lifted himself into a sitting position and glanced around the room. Just about everyone was laughing at him.

The boy attempted to stand, only to get a surge of pain that shot menacingly from his ankle through his entire body. He winced slightly as he returned to his sitting position. He carefully took his right shoe off and examined the damage. His ankle was already starting to swell. Mizuki went over to him. "Are you okay?" she asked kindly.

"Damn bastard sprained my ankle,"he growled as Nakatsu and Nanba asked kneeling beside the boy. "Are you okay, Nakatsu-san?" Nanba asked kneeling down beside the boy.

"Why are you asking me/' Nakatsu asked looking confused

"Not you, him. You two share the same last name" Nanba said.

"Just call me Souji, it's easier than confusing people," the boy said, "I need to get to class, I don't care if I'm hurt. It was my fault for not paying attention"

Souji sighted and stood up and limped out of the cafeteria. As he walked, he stripped off the soiled white shirt and his jacket to reveal a black T-shirt that Shuichi had given him as a birthday present.

-Ring-

Souji moved a bit faster trying to get to the class on time, with no such luck. He entered the classroom a good ten minutes after the class had started. "I'm sorry. I had a little…trouble this morning" Souji muttered quietly "I'm the new student, Souji Nakatsu."

"Oh yes, today we have a new transfer student joining our class. This young man is Souji Nakatsu. He just transferred back to Japan after studying abroad in America" the teacher said. Wait a minute… I recognize him now Nakatsu thought Although, if my thoughts are correct he is a she, and she is my sist…oh no… she didn't Souji walked over and sat beside him "Hello brother, dear" Souji whispered in his ear as he sat. She did Nakatsu thought with an angry and annoyed look. "What are you doing here, Souko? And how did you even get into this school?" Nakatsu whispered back.

"N.Y.O.B." Souji/Souko replied (A/N: From now on I'm just going to use Souko unless someone is saying her alias).

"I thought I got rid of you!" Nakao shouted angrily

"What do you mean 'got rid of'?" Mizuki asked Nakao directly.

"I thought he was running home crying to mommy when I tripped him this morning" Nakao exclaimed before he could catch himself

"So it was you? I didn't know you could be so mean, and just because he passed Nanba" Mizuki outraged, Souko was the only one who understood every word.

She must be really mad Sano thought

He's so cute when he's angry Nakatsu thought forgetting the intrusion that was his sister. "Uh… I don't understand you" Nakao said as Mizuki took a breath before yelling again.

"So it's okay for me to like Nanba-san? He's not attached to anyone?"Souko asked.

"Of course it is, he's not attached to anyone that I know of," Mizuki said calming down "Are you related to Nakatsu?"

"Yeah he's my elder twin brother" Souko replied, ears ringing from all the yelling.

"So you're not an only child?" Sano asked, his question directed at Shuichi Nakatsu.

"I never considered her… him to be my sibling. To me she…he was more of an acutance" Nakatsu replied

"Big brother are you trying to insult me by calling me a girl?" Souko asked glaring at Nakatsu "Just because I have long hair it doesn't make me a girl"

"Can we please get class started?" the teacher yelled

"Yes" the class replied loudly

When the bell rang for class to be over Souko stood up and got a shooting pain up her (A/N: yes and she is being called a she now instead of he. I know it's confusing buy\t you should be able to understand) leg. She squeezed her eyes shut at the throbbing pain and balanced on hr left foot. As some of the pain subsided she looked down and saw that her ankle was purple and twice its original size. "That's not good," she whispered.

"What's wrong?" Mizuki asked she heard Souko's comment.

"My ankle. Could you help me get to the infirmary? I mean, if it isn't too much trouble? I'd rather not have Shuichi carry me," Souko said.

"Yeah, sure thing, I was headed that way anyhow" Mizuki said letting Souko use her shoulder as a crutch.

When they arrived at the infirmary Dr. Umeda was sitting behind his desk. "Excuse me, Dr. Umeda…" Mizuki said as the doctor turned.

"Well if it isn't Mizuki and it seems you brought a friend with you" Umeda said as Mizuki set Souko in a chair and headed to the bathroom. "Now what seems to be the problem?" Umeda asked shutting the door.

"I sprained my ankle this morning" Souko said

"Let me see" Umeda sighed kneeling in front of Souko. He put some ice on it as looked her in the eye. "Now why are you in this school, little girl?" he asked

"I'm not a girl," Souko said hiding her nervousness with perfect precision, If I can beat a lie detector I can beat a doctor she thought.

"If you're a boy then why is your hair so long?" he asked thinking he could get her

"I have a twin brother. We're identical so I keep my hair long so people can tell us apart" she replied simply

"I hope you know you're not fooling anyone," he said. Souko stared at him, looking directly in the eyes. "I'm of the male gender. If you need proof I can get it to you" she said Granted I'm a master at hacking and was able to create a false birth certificate, social security card, and passport "What makes you believe I'm a girl anyway" she asked

"I'm gay so I can usually tell these things" Umeda replied returning the intense stare

"Sorry, you're not my type. Now, could you please finish up so I can go?" she said sounding just like a boy.

"I'll need your medical papers within a week" he sighed bandaging up her foot.

"I've got those now" she replied pulling a piece of paper out of her bag. She handed it to him. "Falsified information in a school is against the law," he said.

"You'll find out why I'm here soon enough" she replied getting up. Umeda nodded and handed her a set of crutches. "Stay off that foot for three days then come back and see me" he said. She nodded and the two girls left. "Damn I was almost caught"Souko said forgetting Mizuki knew English.

"Almost caught for what?" Mizuki asked. Souko smelled the air. "Mizuki are you a girl?" she asked. Mizuki looked at her wide-eyed. "Does that damned doctor know?" Souko continued. Mizuki nodded and stared at her.

"Actually the doctor isn't that bad, that is, once you get to know him," Mizuki said

"Do me a favor and don't tell anyone I'm a girl. I'm not quite ready for the doctor to know yet," Souko said

"No problem" Mizuki replied "Would you like to be friends?"

"Sure" Souko replied, "I like you well enough." The two headed to the dorms.

End of Chapter 1

A/N: It's pretty much the same as the last one but I changed it up a bit. I think I like this version over the last one. P.S. I think I'm going to get a bit creative with the disclaimers for the next chapters. If you have any ideas let me know. I've already got the next few chapters written but I need to type them up. So please leave reviews.
