Mizuki quietly drug herself through the school hallways. Today was her first day at this new high school. Senior year and she had moved here because her hometown, Wako, held to many bad memories to stay there, so moving was a defiant option.

Her family had abandoned her because they had better things to do then look after her. Her mother, father, older brother and sister had all left her for America. They had always thought of Mizuki as a mess up and so they one day decided to leave her and they did. All she had left was the house and she sold that. Then moved to Matsudo. Everything was nice there, but still it didn't feel like home. Nowhere would feel like home now.

Slowly she watched others talk and laugh and just have fun together. She never had that and probably never will. Infact she is sure she never will. 'I wish I could have had a life like that...' She thought to herself. She moved along instead of stearing blanky and someone. She didn't want to attract any bad attention like she did back at her old school. They used to make fun of her a lot and make jokes about how she never had friends and how she never will. She was never angry about it, just sad and hurt. Soon she had started to believe it. Especially when her so called 'family' left her. 'I will always be alone...'

Class was slow and just seemed to drag by like molasses. She had hopped school would go by quick but it didn't and she had to sit in every class bored like no other. Walking through the halls like a ghost and staying quiet as a mouse the entire day. That made it excruciatingly boring, almost painfully. So within the last class of the school day she had seen a very handsome boy. She would never admit it to anyone, but her was abosolutly dashing. His eyes were like milky chocolate and his skin olive tan. His hair was dirty blonde and made the picture perfect. His fine toned muscles. She was ready to scream by how amazing he looked. She really wanted to know his name. But she knew good and well that he would never even utter the word 'Hi' to her ever. Never in a million years.

With that the school day was over and she started out the doors when she saw him again. He was talking to two large boys, who seemed to be football players, 'Jocks' she thought to herself, and he was laughing. She could barley hear it but it made her knees weak. It was so smooth and fun sounding. She loved it.

Just then he turned and flashed her a smile that almost made her melt into a puddle of water. Just then she knew she could die happily with that picture on her mind. He turned completely and started towards her. Her eyes widened. They were already big enough, now they were three times bigger! She was embarrassed by everything. She felt she wasn't pretty enough to even get a glace from him with her pitch black hair, her neon blue eyes, and pale skin. She wasn't like the other girls with tan skin and bleach blond hair. Her cheeks flushed pink when he was in front of her.

"I hear you're new around here and thought you may need a warm welcome from someone, so Welcome to Middleton High. And, uhh..I was wondering if you wanted to take a walk in the park on your way home?" He said in a beautiful voice. Now she was stunned. Did the hottest guy she had ever seen just ask her to walk in the park with him after school?

"Uhh, Yeah, that...s-s-ounds nice..." She stuttered.

"Okay then, follow me." He said with a smile. She followed him towards the other two guys and he told them he would catch up with them later and wispered something she didn't hear.

As they walked she got more and more nervous the farther they went through the park. She didn't know where they were going and what was going to happen. She started to shake and as she did this he grabbed her hand. It was warm and smooth. Kind of comforting...'What am I thinking?! I know he doesn't like me, so why am I getting so worked up. I should just tell him I have to go and go home.'

"Uhm..." 'Wait, I don't even know his name. What now?' She though and got a little worried. She didn't know his name so she couldn't tell him. It's rude just to say 'Hey you, I gotta go.' And then just walk off.

"We're here now." He turned to look at her. "What do you think?" It was beautiful where ever they were. There was a small pond that glowed a little in the twilight. Vines moved up the trees and flowers grew everywhere. It was like a scene out of a dream or fairytale. She never wanted to wake up from this dream if that is what it was. It had to be one. Her, the shy girl that no one liked,was with the hottest guy ever and in the most beautiful place she had ever seen. 'This has to be a dream...'

"Judging by your look of astonishment, you must really like this place." He said snapping her back to reality. He leaned close to her face which suprised her and she moved back a little and her cheeks flushed bright red. He smirked at this and leaned closer.

"I take it you have never been kissed before?" Her eyes widened a little. "I thought not. I can change that real fast." He leaned in to where their lips almost touched and she paniced and pushed him away and he fell backward hitting the ground quite hard. She rushed over.

"I'm so sorry. I just paniced. I have never had anyone come that close or say that or even try to k-k-kiss me...I'm so sorry..." She rabbled and he didn't seem to pay attention. What had she done. She could have injured the only person who was being nice to her.

"You...you will pay for this. Rejecting me! No one does that! Get out of her! Now!" He screamed with rage.

She turned and ran, fast. This is the fastest she has ever ran in her life. She wasn't just sorry, she was terrified. He sounded like he literaly wanted to kill her. She never looked behind her just in case he decided to run after her. She could see where they had come in and was almost there until she tripped. The fall was painful and she got a scratch on her right arm. It wasn't anything bad but it still needed a bandage. She looked to see she had tripped over some trash. As she stood up something caught her eye. She picked up a white book that looked old. Engraved on the top was 'The Mystery Of The Five Gods' and there wasn't an author's name.

Since it had been in the trash she asumed no one wanted it. She decided to take it with her, because for some reason she didn't know, she felt drawn to the book. Plus she did love to read. She already had so many books. She slipped it in her bag and started to her apartment.

'At least one good thing happened to day...'
