Hello! This is my first fanfic for High School Debut. I really wanted to write a fanfic for this series because it is the only manga that I have re-read more than one time. It is just a classic! Well I hope you enjoy!

Disclaimer: I do not own High School Debut. The amazing Kazune Kawahara does.

Bold=dialogue from the manga

italics: Yoh's thoughts

I am not coaching her. Absolutely not. She is going to cry. She won't be able to handle my blunt comments. Almost unbidden another thought came to Yohs' mind intrusive and unwelcomed. I don't want to go through this again.

Shaking the thought off, Yohs' mind went back to her, Haruna Nagashima, the cause of his current mental tirade.

It had been a regular Tuesday for Yoh. At first. However, that all changed when he glanced up for a brief moment and his eyes connected with a girl that seemed oddly familiar before she tripped and landed on her knees in the staircase landing. Without stopping to think about it, he went and collected her shoe for her. He handed it back to her and she took it with a slight dazed look in her eyes. Yoh couldn't stop feeling a deep sense of deja vu but for the life of him he couldn't place it. He turned, trying to shake that feeling off but stopped right in his tracks when the girl spoke-

"I am a first year Haruna Nagashima. Will you coach me in how to be attractive?I want to know what guys are like I want to fall in love!"

Yoh had never been rendered speechless in his whole life until this moment. It was not only the content of her speech that made him mute but the way she delivered it- completely honest and passionate. The spell was broken , however, when his younger sister ,Asami, insisted he coached her. Of course he refused which lead to his current predicament.

The girl is from another planet. She has zero fashion sense. If I did coach her, I would have to start from scratch and delete 16 years of memory in order to do so. She needs to be a blank canvas in order for me to transform-.Yoh stopped. Was he actually considering coaching her?! NONO. Yoh Komiyama is NOT going to be the coach of Haruna Nagashima. Never.

With his mind made up, Yoh decided to focus on something more important-like his homework.

Yoh's mind worked in mysterious ways. Despite his ardent declaration from last night about never becoming the coach of Haruna, his mind thought otherwise. Since meeting her yesterday, it seemed like his mind had suddenly thrown a spotlight on Haruna. When before he had never known she existed, now his mind immediately spotted her in the crowded cafeteria, sitting alone, obviously in a state of confusion. Why did I come here? Yoh thought as he tried to recall the reason for coming to the cafeteria. Oh yeah. I needed to talk to Asami. He looked around the cafeteria again looking for Asami now but his treacherous mind again made Yoh look back to where Haruna was sitting still in her state of confusion.

Without another thought, he walked over to Haruna's table. What am I doing?! To cover up his confusion over this unplanned action, he asked Haruna if she had seen Asami or not. When she answered that Asami had gone to get a drink, Yoh glanced down at the table looking at all the fashion magazines lying on the table advertising tips on how to be attractive. Why does she want to be attractive so much? Yoh did not see the appeal of being attractive. He knew from first hand experience the troubles being attractive. Girls fell in love with him-no not him but his face- at first sight without knowing anything about him. They would confess to him and when he rejected them in a blunt manner, they would always cry. Guys would be jealous of him due to the girls' attention and they always isolated him. If it wasn't for Fumi and Asoka he wouldn't have any male friends at all.

Her response to his questions of why she wanted to be attractive and have a boyfriend left him in shock. Again. He had never met anyone like Haruna who was able to leave him either speechless or with few words. He had spoken bitterly to her telling her how love was not always a good thing. She ,in response, had said that she wouldn't regret love even if it hurted because she will know she gave it her best. Her eyes spoke to him. Honesty filled them as well as conviction and belief. Something in Yoh's heart began to move unbeknownst to he managed was an "I see" before he made his quick departure.
