Alright… this is the new story I promised! I know it'll be better than 'Troubles' but who knows what you think… I'll just go straight to the story…
Oh, and… Very sorry this was published late Chibi-chan, Carol-chan…

Chapter 1: Encounter, the Boy with Mesmerizing Eyes
As my alarm clock went off, I slammed it and groaned. Sitting up straight, I yawned. I know, I know, it's very unlady-like. My mom says it to me all the time…
Oh, how rude of me! I haven't introduces myself yet. I'm Kagamine Rin, 16 years old. I'm a new transfer student in Crypton School of Arts – Crypton for short, the number 1 school in Japan. I'm pretty proud of myself, being able to enroll into that school.
… speaking of which, Neru is picking me up to get to the dorms today…
I looked at the clock and almost screamed. It's already 7:15 and Neru will be here in another 15 minutes!
I quickly took a bath and wore the first clothes I touch. I comb my hair and wore my detached sleeve at the same time.
I look at my self in the mirror.
A white, sleeve-less shirt, a light blue detached sleeve on my right arm and a pink detached sleeve on my left. A denim mini-skirt with black leggings. Perfect.
"Rin! Neru is here!" I heard my mom shout.
"I'll be down in a sec!"
I grabbed my large bag, full of clothes, make-up, shoes and my modern devices aka my cellphone, laptop and my favorite, iPod.
I ran into the kitchen, took the toast and hugged my mom.
"Shi wou in shummer, mwom!" I said, my mouth full of toast.
"See you in summer, Rin!" she actually understood…
"And Rin," she added "That is very unlady-like," I smiled and nodded, swallowing the toast.
I ran out to Neru's mom's van. Before I reach there, I saw a furious Neru, tapping her foot impatiently.
"What took you so long?" she hissed.
"I… overslept?" I said but really, I was asking her that.
"GET IN THE VAN!" I quickly did as she said, putting my bag in the trunk before getting into the van.
That was Akita Neru, 16 years old. She's also transferring into Crypton with me. She's a pretty, beautiful girl. But she has one flaw. Her rude and mean nature. NOBODY wants to be on her bad side. She's worse than GODZILLA when she's mad…
"Did you say something Rin?" she glared at me.
"N-Nothing at all…"
But this didn't stop us from becoming the best of friends. With our different natures, we actually CAN get along. We just need to try. With her mean, rude and calm nature contrasting with my polite, hyper and cheerful nature, we actually got along pretty well…
"Hello, Rin!" Neru's mom looked at me in the back.
"Hello, Akita-san…" I smiled at her. See what I mean by polite?
"Rin, you can always call her 'mom'" see what I mean by rude?
"But, she's your mom… not mine…" I said
Neru sighed and got her phone out. I smiled at her.
"WHHHHAAAAAATTTTT!" she suddenly yelled, her eyes wide. Akita-san almost ran into the road separator.
"Neru, what is wrong?" Akita-san said, keeping her eye on the road.
"I… No… Nothing…" with her fingers typing furiously on her cellular device, a huge smile on her face, I don't believe her in the slightest.
… But being her best friend, it's better if I don't pry into her business…
"We're here, kids!" Akita-san exclaimed happily.
"Finally!" I said, jumping out of the van.
"You're so hyper, Rin," Neru said, going out of the van properly…
"You know how I am~" I sang. She smiled and shook her head.
"Come on, let's go!" I dragged her with me towards the school, leaving Akita-san to take out our bags.
We walked around the school grounds for a few minutes, looking at the many flowers aligned there, and the fountain, and of course, the other students walking around. We walked back to Akita-san to see her waiting for us to get our bags.
"There you girls are," she said to us.
"Did we take too long?" I asked to her taking my bag.
"Not at all," she smiled at us and gave Neru her bag.
"Thanks mom," Neru hugged her, and Akita-san hugged back.
"See you two in summer!" she waved at us before driving away.
"Well, that was sweet of you Neru… I never thought you'd hug her," I teased.
"Hey, I love my mom, even if I act rude to her," she said.
"And you," she added. I smiled.
"Sure, you love me~"
"I take that back. I hate you, Kagamine Rin,"
I laughed. Suddenly, I bumped into a girl, which made me fall back.
"Oh, I'm so so so sorry!" I looked up to see a girl with long teal hair and eyes, wearing red rimmed glasses. She was also carrying a few boxes and papers.
"Oh, are you okay? I'm very sorry! I'm in a hurry right now!" I smiled and stood up.
"No, it's okay… I'm–"
"You better be sorry, you made her fall!" Neru cut me off. I sighed. The girl, however, looked scared.
"Neru, it's okay…" I looked at the girl and smiled at her
"I'm okay, there's no need to worry," I said to her.
"Do you need any help around the school?" she asked.
"Actually we do," I said politely
"Where do we need to go to get our dorm room number?"
"Ah, are you assigning for dorm rooms?" she asked. I nodded.
"I see… please follow me, then…" she walked towards the auditorium. Neru and I looked at each other and shrugged. We ran up to her and followed her.
Once we were at the auditorium, she lead us to a man with red hair and eyes.
"Shion-sensei, here are the things you asked for," she said, handing the man, which I think is a teacher, the boxes she was holding.
The man turned to her and smiled gratefully.
"Thank you very much, Hatsune-san. You can put these there," he pointed to the table near a brown haired man.
"Yes, sensei," the girl, which I think is called Hatsune-san? Whispered and proceeded to put the boxes on the table
"May I help you two?" the red haired teacher asked us.
"Ah, yes… We're here to get our dorm room numbers," I said to him. He smiled at us.
"Of course. Can you give me your names?" he asked and walked to the computer, Neru and I following behind him.
"I'm Kagamine Rin," I said to him. He nodded and typed my name into the computer.
"And you are?" he asked looking at Neru.
"Akita Neru," she said. He smiled again and typed her name into the computer.
"Kagamine Rin in room 134 and Akita Neru in room 136," he said.
"Take the keys to your room there," he said pointing to the same brown haired man that Hatsune-san had gave the boxes to, and to my surprise, Hatsune-san was still there, talking to the man.
"Well, what are you waiting for Rin?" Neru asked. I smiled and quickly followed her.
We walked up to the man and he looked up to us, as Hatsune-san did. She smiled at us.
"Dorm rooms?" he asked. We nodded.
He spun around with his spinning chair or whatever it's called and looked into a box that had many, many keys in it.
"Number?" he asked.
"134 and 136," Neru said. As he kept digging into the box as we waited boringly.
"So," I started and looked at Hatsune-san "We haven't introduced ourselves yet," I said to her. She blushed and looked down, which made me smile.
"My name is Hatsune Miku," she mumbled.
"I'm Kagamine Rin, that's Akita Neru," I said pointing at Neru that was busy texting with… someone…
"Nice to meet you…" she mumbled once again.
"Yeah, nice to meet you!" I beamed at her.
"Ahem," we looked back to the man, holding two keys attached to something that looks like leather, whatever that thing is called.
"Room 134 and 136, correct?" we nodded and he handed the keys to us "Hatsune-san here will guide you around the school, since she didn't volunteered to help around the auditorium," he said.
"S-Sakine-sensei!" Hatsune-san blushed in embarrassment which had me giggle a bit "K-Kagamine-san! D-Don't laugh at me, please!" she stuttered.
"I'm sorry, Hatsune-san…" I said and smiled at her "And please just call me Rin. I'm not a fan of honorifics," I said. She smiled a small smile and nodded.
"Can we go to the dorms now?" Neru asked. I looked at Hatsune-san, as she is to be our guide. She blushed in embarrassment(again) and said a quick goodbye to the man, leading us to the dorm buildings.
"This is room 134 and that is room 136," Hatsune-san said to us, pointing the rooms "I am sharing a room with Rin, by the way…" she mumbled.
"Who am I sharing with?" Neru asked her.
"Oh! You're sharing with Megurine Luka…" she mumbled, AGAIN.
"Hatsune-san, you should stop mumbling…" I said, which resulted with her blush and look down, mumbling a sorry. I laugh a little at this "Let's get in," I said, beckoning her to open the door as she was standing in front of me. She looked up and quickly opened the door. While she was doing that, I looked at Neru.
"See you later, I wanna go to sleep again," I said to her. She rolled her eyes, and took out her phone again. I swear, that phone is like her life.
"Rin, t-the door is opened…" I looked at Hatsune-san and smiled.
"Thank you, Hatsune-san," I said as I came inside, carrying my bag with me.
"Y-You can call me Miku…" I barely heard her mumble. I smiled at her again.
"Of course Miku," I said and put my bag next to the unowned bed, throwing myself onto the bed.
"Wake me up when you need to…" I mumbled lazily to Miku and engulfed myself into slumber(wow, that sounded like I'm a princess or something)
"– IN! RIN!" I jumped off the bed, clutching my ear, hoping that it'll avoid from letting my ear become deaf.
"OWWW! What'd you do that for?" I glared at Neru, but as usual, Neru didn't even mind it.
"It's lunch already! You slept through 'till the afternoon!" I blinked a few times, letting the information I just got process in my head.
"Oh…" I muttered.
"Now, get up and let's go have lunch!" Neru said with her usual strict voice.
"Okay…" I lazily stood up and walked to Miku who looks more than frightened.
"It's okay, she always like that," I put a reassuring hand on her shoulder with a smile. Which made her relax a little until;
"HURRY UP!"
THAT made Miku automatically hide under her bed that she was standing next to.
And it took me 15 minutes to just persuade her to come out from under her bed while Neru just stood there, texting her life away.
After successfully persuading Miku to come out from under her bed, Miku lead us to the cafeteria, along with Megurine Luka, Neru's roommate.
"– And this is the cafeteria," Miku said to us. Oopps… I was spacing out while she explained it to us…
"So can we eat now?" Neru asked, not averting her gaze from her cellphone.
"O-Of course Akita-sama…" apparently, Miku had chose '-sama' as Neru's honorific and Neru is very annoyed by it, but ignores it.
"Well, let's go," Luka said as she opened the doors to the cafeteria and stepped in. I gaped.
Is it really a cafeteria? T-This… The size is even bigger than my house!
… Well, maybe I'm just exaggerating, but that's not the point, readers! The point is that it's HUGE!
"What are you gaping at, Rin? Come on, I'm hungry," Neru had to drag me to an open table.
"This is HUGE!" I said aloud.
"I-It is, isn't it?" Miku asked. I nodded in response looking around me.
"Are you just gonna look around or are you going to get some food with me?" Neru said, annoyed by my gaping at a cafeteria.
"I'll… just go get some food with you," I said and put a scared face on. Obviously, she was very, VERY annoyed by EVERYTHING today… I don't want her to go into killer mode so I'll just go along with her…
"Well, come on!" I quickly stood up and followed her to take some food.
I sighed. I knew this was gonna happen… I should've warned the poor girl…
I stared at the poor girl who was a victim of Neru's anger. You don't understand what I'm talking about, do you? Let me give you a recap…
~~Flashback~~
"What should I eat?" Neru asked, looking at the food. "I guess I'll just have some omelet rice…" she said and was about to take the only omelet rice left when suddenly, the omelet rice was taken by the girl with flowing powder blue hair.
Neru stared at her with the expression of 'excuse-me-but-that's-mine'. At that point, I already had a bad feeling about it.
"Excuse me, but that omelet is mine," Neru tried to ask nicely. Remember, TRIED.
The girl stared at Neru, then stuck her tongue out. And did something I thought no one would do to Neru.
"But it doesn't have your name on it, does it?" and the girl started laughing. At my point of view, I could see the vein that snapped on Neru's forehead.
"Please?" Neru forced out a smiled. The girl stopped laughing and stared at Neru.
"Um… maybe… NO?" the girl continued laughing. This girl must really want to die early…
And just like that, Neru punched the girl in the stomach, making the poor girl fall, and once she did, Neru stepped on the girls' feet. With her usual, evil smile.
"OWWW! WHAT ARE YOU DOING? ARE YOU TRYING TO CRUSH MY FEET?" the girl shrieked. By then, the whole cafeteria were staring at them.
"This is what you get for NOT obeying MY orders," Neru smirked.
~End of Flashback~
And that's what happened. I had to drag Neru – which was a very hard task – over to our table, the whole cafeteria was still staring at Neru who was struggled to escape.
The girl is now on her table, clutching her feet, crying a little. I sighed again, and walked over to her.
"Uh…" what? You expect me to just call out to her?
"You're that crazy girls' friend! Get away from me!" she said and backed away from me. I took a deep breath and bowed to her, making her stop her actions.
"I'm very sorry on behalf of my friend there. She has some slight anger issues… I really am sorry for what happened and I promise I won't let it happen again. Please just forgive her," I said, still bowing in front of her.
"Y-You can stop bowing now…" I straightened myself and looked at the girl, now staring at me "I-I guess I'll forgive her since you even bowed to make me forgive her…"
I smiled at her "Thank you very much…" I said "I'm Kagamine Rin, by the way," I said.
"I'm Suzune Ring…" she said and rubbed her feet where Neru almost crushed.
"Would you like to sit with us?" I offered. Well, she looked lonely and doesn't have any friends… she even sits alone, there isn't any reason for me to NOT offer her…
"I-Is your friend okay with it?" she asked, looking over my shoulder.
"I'm sure she'll be fine with it… I can persuade her, anyway," I said. She nodded and followed me to my table.
"Rin, what is that girl doing here?" Neru hissed when she saw Ring with me.
"Relax, Neru," I said to her, taking a seat next to Miku and tapped the saet next to me, signaling Ring to take a seat next to me. Ring smiled and sat next to me.
"I'm Suzune Ring…" Ring said to them.
"Nice to meet you, Suzune-san. I'm Hatsune Miku," Miku smiled at her.
"I'm Megurine Luka," Luka nodded to her "Nice to meet you, Suzune-san,"
Ring smiled at them and hesitantly turned to Neru, who was once again texting her life away.
"Neru!" I said to her, frowning.
Neru sighed and looked towards Ring "The names Akita Neru, and don't call me with my last name. It makes me sound old," and Neru continued texting.
"O-Okay…" Ring said and smiled at her.
After lunch, I decided to take a stroll around the school, wanting to memorize the place before school starts tomorrow while Neru and the other stayed in their rooms.
Now, I'm at the school compound. And really, this school is rich, dude. It even has a fountain in the middle. I walked along the path, surrounded by beautiful red roses. Suddenly, I fell back, hitting something in front of me.
"Oww…" I groaned.
"Urgh…" I looked up and saw a guy, blonde hair tied into a tight ponytail. He looked up and I saw his eyes.
Blue. A very beautiful hue of blue. It was a very deep blue, but in the deep blue, was a glint of greenish blue, almost teal. I was mesmerized by just looking at his eyes.
"Oi, watch where you're going!" I looked at the guy in disbelief. Seriously? He looks so handso – I mean, nice but this? He's even ruder than Neru…
"I'm sorry, for not looking where I was going," I forcibly said with a forced smile.
"You better be," stood up and walked away just like that.
What the heck? Not even saying a simple sorry? Now, that's an example of what's NOT to follow, readers.
I shook my head and stood up, once again walking the same path I was going, as if nothing happened.
