Chapter One
Toshiro Hitsugaya, student council president, captain of the football team, most popular boy in school and boy genius ambled to school, his mind drowning with thoughts of the day ahead: making the sounds around him come to a hindrance. While Toshiro was cherished and admired by his schoolmates, he found school insufferable, trying to make it through just this last year before he started university. Being the most popular guy in his school, he didn't exactly have friends even though many hoped but on top of that his striking features, had the girls swooning and he left much to be desired. At seventeen years old, he was definitely what most referred to as the most desirable and oh how he loved his status at Seireitei High School, even if he didn't like at times, being their with people who could not compete with his intellect. What was a boy genius to do? While he wasn't particularly tall, which was commented on a lot, he had very distinctive white spiky hair, which the girls like to tell him reminded them of the twinkling snow, when the sun hit it. Another of his features which stood out to many where his eyes, teal in colour, they contrasted beautifully against his snow white hair. Or so he had been told. He knew he was good looking but he didn't like to flaunt it. They only thing that confused the high school population of Seireitei High School was the fact none of them had ever known him to have a girlfriend, he was always alone and each girl wanted him but he had never had an interest in any of them and on top of that he was engaged to be married to a very real girl, who he had never met, a week after her eighteenth birthday which was five months after his. The thirteenth of May was his wedding date and his was not happy about it one bit. He new the day had been slowly drawing on him since his fifteenth birthday when his mother, Rangiku, had told him that he had been engaged since he was six. It was eight months away, his birthday, December twentieth was three months away and them five months later his weeding. What joys. He couldn't believe it when his mother had told him, he would marry just before he went to university and at such a young age. He had spent nearly a year trying to convince his mother that he did not want to be married so young but she told him that it was necessary and he would come around. So far, no he had not come around, the date haunted him and he knew that wasn't going to change anytime soon. Toshiro was just glad that no one that he was engaged and hopefully would never find out.
It was his first day in his senior year and for some unexpected reason Toshiro felt a hint a excitement course through him. This had never happened before but today was special, he could feel it, he just didn't know why. He had decided this morning that until he was married off to a strange girl, when was going to enjoy his last year at the detestable school. This year he was going to enjoy himself and his freedom. Toshiro stood outside of his school admiring the large, traditionally built school he had attended the last four years and after the bell had rung he sauntered through the wooden oak doors and into his high school. The interior was much more modern than the exterior and as he continued down the corridors to his classroom, a lot earlier than many of the students, he focused his gazed on the sports field that was adjacent to the school. Due to it being the first day of school Toshiro hadn't scheduled an early morning practice but looking through the huge glass windows he could see the figure of a girl with black hair playing, extremely well. Who the hell was she no girls had ever done this, most of the girls in his year hated sports and even if they did like them football wasn't one of them.
The morning bell rang snapping Toshiro out of his watchful gaze at the girl on the sports field. Toshiro checked his watch and realised he had been stood watching her play for forty-five minutes, this was quite unlike him. Students began swarming around him as he quickly walked to his homeroom, which he would normally be in reading but not today. Today he was almost late because he had been distracted. Toshiro opened his classroom door and walked in, ignoring the stares of his classmates and the giggles of some of the girls and taking his seat in the front right section of the classroom by the window. Shortly after taking his seat, Toshiro's homeroom teacher Miss Unohana strolled in and took her seat at her desk. Everyone in the school new how pretty Miss Unohana was with her long black hair that was plated in the front and her delicate facial features. After taking attendance she stood up and started speaking about the days events.
"As you know class, you spend first period here before going off to your lessons," Miss Unohana said, in a sweet tone. "We will be going over rules and I will be handing out your schedules please be sure to attend all your lessons and work hard."
Unohana walked round the classroom handing out each and every schedule until she reached Toshiro and still had three in her hand. She handed Toshiro his before sitting back at her desk and placing the last ones on her table.
"Please take a few minutes to look over your schedules and fill out your planners information," she said, before taking notes on something Toshiro had no idea about. Toshiro looked down at his planner and realised that he had signed up for quite a few advanced classes on top of his student council president and captain of the football teams duties. But he knew he could handle it, he was looking forward to advanced maths, chemistry, literature and physics on top of his regular classes.
Just as Miss Unohana stood up a creaking sound echoed throughout the room and everyone including Toshiro looked over towards the door. Everyone was present attendance told them that, so who would be interrupting on the first day and in homeroom on top of that. As the door slowly crept open, it revealed a small, pretty, petite girl with light blonde hair styled in two pigtails, with a red hair-clip holding back her bangs. As she stepped over the threshold, it revealed another girl exactly the same in figure small and petite but instead she had black hair as dark as the night sky, styled in a high ponytail. She was looking at the floor.
"Is this Miss Unohana's homeroom class?" the blonde one asked.
Miss Unohana smiled and said "Yes, you must be the two new students that will be joining us." Instantly everyone started muttering around the room at how cute they were and where they had come from. Toshiro couldn't help but stare at the two, especially the black-haired one, who had not yet gazed up making it hard to see her face as her loose pieces of her were covering her face.
"We are," the girl answered, smiling at the teacher. She continued into the room with the other girl following and stood at the front of the class next to Unohana.
"Would you please introduce yourselves to the class, girls?"
"Of course. I'm Yuzu Kurosaki," the blonde one beamed. "And this is..." she added, leaning over to the girl on her left.
"Karin Kurosaki," she muttered but loud enough for the whole class to hear.
"Wait, your twins," someone yelled.
"Yes," Yuzu answered.
"But you don't even look a like at all," another said. Toshiro watched Karin as she continued looking at the floor. Yuzu answered again.
"We're fraternal twins. Nothing a like really but we love each other anyway," she chortled. Yuzu again leaned over and whispered in Karin's ear. It must have been something to do with looking at the class because as Yuzu leaned away Karin looked up, resulting in Toshiro losing his breath. She had beautiful flawless, porcelain skin like her sister but fuller lips and they had very different eyes. Yuzu's were chocolate coloured but Karin's were captivating. They were a silvery gray that sparkled as the little from the window reflected off of them. Toshiro had never seen anyone so stunning.
"Girls, why don't you take the free seats on the front row," Miss Unohana said, getting back on with what she had planned to say before the Kurosaki twins had entered the classroom. Yuzu quickly sat next the girl on the front row and for the life of him Toshiro couldn't recall her name in that moment. Karin followed suit, sitting next to her sister, that made it so she was sitting right next to him. Toshiro stared not at the teacher but at the new girl sat next to him, they were sharing a desk after all. Toshiro watched as Karin turned to look at him, making Toshiro once again catch his breath.
"Do I have something on my face?" she asked, quietly.
"No. No. There's nothing on your face," Toshiro quickly responded.
"Then why do you keep looking at me?"
"I'm sorry. It's just... well it has been a while since we had new students her."
"Oh. Okay," she said, looking back to the front of the classroom. Whilst Toshiro seemed to be swooning at the sight of her, she was not doing the same with the likes of him confusing him slightly but then again it was kind of refreshing to not have someone be all giddy around him. Except he kind of wanted her to be.
"I'm Student Council President Toshiro Hitsugaya by the way."
"Karin Kurosaki,"
"I know, you introduced yourself earlier,"
"Yeah, I guess I did."
With that she didn't say another word nor did she look at him. Maybe it was for the best. Whilst he couldn't stop looking at the stunning beauty sat next to him, there was no way they would ever be able to be together and on top of that touch her. He was engaged and there was nothing he could do about it. What a hand the universe had dealt him. How could his mother have done this to him? Toshiro sat staring hoping something would change and that he would be free to love and pursue any girl he wanted. How life had spit in his face. What was a boy to do? And with that the bell rand and the girl he had been dreaming about stood up and walked out of the room leaving him to longingly gaze after her. Hoping and wishing something would change. That he would be able to get his mother to drop the engagement and let him go after love as he seemed fit. Patience would be the key to this and time which was definitely not on his side. The clock was ticking and his wedding fast approaching. Eight Months. Just Eight. His fight just beginning.
