Chapter 1: First Days

I saw him sitting on the park bench in the pouring rain. His navy hair was wet and plastered to his face. He didn't say anything as I propped my blue kitty umbrella on the bench so that it shielded him from the rain. He just looked up at me and then went back to staring at the ground. Then I continued on my way home, wondering how I was going to explain why I was soaking wet to Father and Neji-niisan.

When I finally got home, I was soaked and shivering. I practically ran inside, thanking whatever god decided to send Father, Hanabi, and Neji grocery shopping. I jogged upstairs to my room and shed my clothes, hopping into the steamy shower and letting the water wash all the cold away. I leaned my forehead against the blue ceramic tile, and images of the boy in the rain ran through my head. Why was he all alone out in the rain? And who was he? I just sighed and pushed the thoughts of the blue-haired boy out of my head. Right now I had to finish taking my shower and get my stuff ready for my first day at Neji's public school tomorrow.

Hanabi and I have been homeschooled our whole lives. I had finally decided that I wanted to go to a public school, and Father said that I could go, as long as I went to the school that Neji went to. I'm happy and nervous at the same time. I'm just glad I'm going to have Neji-niisan with me, or else I'll probably get lost.

---

I'm lost. Really lost. So much for Neji-niisan helping me. I lost track of him 20 minutes ago. This can't get any--

"OOF!" --worse. I ran into something, and I fell back, cracking my head on the tile floor of the hallway. All I saw were onyx eyes and navy-blue hair...then darkness.
