Atsuki sighed as she woke up the next day.She had had a nightmare-filled night.She looked to the clock in the corner of her room and widened her eyes, "Oh no!I'm late!"

She quickly got up and ran to her room-sized closet, pulling the uniform off the hanger and slipping it on as fast as she could.She ran out of her room in the mansion and quickly went downstairs.

She was greeted with a slap across the face and the harsh words of her obviously drunk sister, "You...are..late...imoto-chan...GET OUT!"

Atsuki winced and made her way even faster than before to the door.She slipped her Mary-Janes on and bowed to her sister as she shook violently, "H-Have a good day N-Neesan.."

"I've got to Ouran now..act like nothing has happened..you can do it.." She thought and got into the already waiting car.


Atsuki finally made it to the academy and rushed into the main building.Lucky for her, she wasn't that late at all...early actually.She took a deep breath and made her way to her first period class, she shared it with Kyouya and Tamaki.

Atsuki was all alone in the classroom.No one had arrived yet.She sat down in the far back row where she had been assigned and just blankly stared out the window by her.

"ATSUKI-CHANNNN!!!" a voice said loudly as they shook her shoulders.It was Tamaki.She jumped and turned to him, her cheek was bleeding a bit but she hadn't had time to clean it up at home.

"Y-Yes Tamaki-kun?" She said nervously as she quickly placed her hand over her cheek.She knew he had seen it.


Tamaki had seen the bleeding mark on her cheek and frowned slightly.Who could've possibly hurt her? "...What happened?" He asked softly as he gently pulled her hand away from hr cheek and replaced it with his own.

Atsuki winced and looked at the floor, "Nothing.I'm fine."

Tamaki narrowed his eyes and continued to speak gently and softly. "You're lying to me princess.Why are you lying glorious creature?"

Atsuki closed her eyes and leaned forward, whispering in his ear. "That is for me to know and you to find out."
