Chapter One

Shin's P.O.V

Sawada Shin walked out of the building, he was prepared to skip school. But the sight that met him as he walked out, stopped him in his tracks. A girl his age was walking up to the gates with a 12 year old girl.

"Are you sure you will be fine walking to Momo High?" she asked as she turned to the girl. The 12 year old girl scoffed.

"Of course ill be fine. " she said and then turned and began walking off. Minami suddenly came out of nowhere and began hitting on her. She growled, and before he could back away; she slapped him. He went flying, so she had put a lot of power behind it. Went to slap Kuma but stopped.

"Your just a huge teddy bear." she said and smiled at him as she walked past him. She stopped to look down at Minami.

"I'm not a regular girl. I will hit you. So why don't you behave when your around me." she said and then continued walking. I looked over at Minami and grinned as I saw him mumbling.

"She hit me!" he said and I quickly put my blank mask on as he turned towards me. I shrugged at him and walked back into the building.

I sat at the back as she sat down next to me. She ignored all the looks she got for sitting there. And I decided not to care. She could sit where she wanted.

Ayumi's P.O.V

I watched the huge boy. He was my favorite so far. He was a huge teddy bear and he seemed to like me. But today was different from yesterday. He looked sad and he was being yelled at by the new teacher. I decided that I was over her yelling. I stood up and grabbed Kuma's hand.

"Come on Kuma." I said and led him out, ignoring the yells of the teacher. As we walked out, I looked him over. I then decided to take him to the place that my family owned. It was Arai Ramen Shop.

"You own this?" he asked and I smirked at him as I saw my Mother. She was standing behind the counter. She smiled when she saw us and quickly came over. She then noticed Kuma.

"You look sad. Don't worry. We will have you happy in no time." she said and then began yelling behind her to Father.

As we left that night, to go walking around, we saw Yamaguchi. She was looking through the water. He turned to me,

"I lied to her. I took it. But it got stolen." he said and I smiled,

"I know Kuma. " I said and he looked shocked. He then turned and ran down there. I took that as my cue to go for the bag of money. I knew who took it. And I wasn't about to let that teacher know.

I walked into the warehouse and looked around.

"Nice setup you have here Cousin." I said and Ryo turned to me and smiled. She came walking over and I stopped him by putting my hand out.

"Give the yellow bag back Ryo." I said and he looked confused before he turned and walked off. I rolled my eyes as I got ready to fight. He liked to challenge me every once in a while. He was always trying to best me in fighting. But today I wasn't in the mood to deal with it. As he turned I suddenly lashed out, sending him to the floor. I got on top of him and punched him in the stomach, I never noticed Sawada Shin watching from the doorway. I grabbed his neck after that and growled into his face.

"Ryo, I have had it with you hurting others, and taking things that don't belong to you. Now let go of the bag before I break your hand." I spat and he suddenly let go of the bag. I grabbed it and stood up. I grinned as he stood up holding his stomach.

"Nice to see you again Cousin. " I said and then turned and walked out of the warehouse. I froze as I saw Shin.

"So you knew the whole time where it was. Why did you help him?" he asked and I sighed as I looked him over.

"I like Kuma, that's reason enough." I said, and walked off.

As we walked into the school, I tossed the bag into the boys trash. Then I smirked as I got it stuck so that someone would notice it was there. I turned to Sawada who was watching me.

"Lets get in there before anyone notices that we aren't there. " I said and walked in with him. Moments later, Yamaguchi came rushing in holding the bag. She told the school how she had found it in the boys trashbin.

I sat in my room, I was thinking on what I had done that day. I shouldn't have gone to Ryo. He could have easily turned his friends on me. As I thought this I looked up as Mother came in.

"Your grandfather is here. He wants to talk to you." she said and then walked out again. I followed her and found him in the doorway. He was waiting on me.

"Lets go walking." he said and I slipped my shoes on.

Shin's P.O.V

I was out walking to the store so that I could eat tonight. As I was walking past the park, I saw Arai. She was sitting next to an old man. I decided to get closer. I sat down on the ground and listened.

"Ayumi. You understand your Cousin's pain." he said and I saw her nod.

"Going and fighting him wasn't the best judgement on your part. You know why Ryo turned away from us. He lost his parents. Shouldn't you be helping him instead of fighting him." he asked and she looked up,

"But he took..." she started and was stopped by him.

"We all do things that are bad when we are in pain Ayumi. Now is not the time for your rivalry. You and your cousins promised to help him. None of you have kept your word. What does this family do with promises Ayumi?" he asked and she sighed,

"We keep them. Your right. I just got mad because he was going to allow my classmate to get expelled. He stole the Vice Prinicpals money. " she said and stood up as she looked out at the trees.

"That is true. However you would be doing the same thing had you lost your parents. Im sure you know that his sister is hurting over this as well. He was supposed to take her in, but he didn't. Your parents took her in and changed her last name. Now come on. Its time for your dinner is it not?" he asked as he too stood. But as they came walking around the bushes he stopped.

"Why don't you invite the boy that is sitting in the bushes." he said and I looked up in shock as he turned to look at me.

"Sawada!" she yelled looking at me, then she smirked.

"Come on then Sawada. Unless your chicken." she said and I felt an urge to yell at her. But instead I got up and followed after the two.

"I like your boyfriend." her grandpa said and she turned to look at him shocked.

"He isn't my boyfriend Grandfather." she yelled and then smiled as the old man laughed at her.

I hope you Enjoy the first of my stories. I own nothing.
