When it comes to the first day of school no one is excited, what's worse you may ask. I'll tell you, finding out who your room mate is.
"Excuse me, miss?" Kyo said to the tall blonde haired woman in front of him with her back to him. When she heard someone she turned to see an orange haired boy.
"Yes?"
"I'm looking for the office; do you know where it is?"
"Yes, it's down that hall to the left."
"Oh, thank…"
"Mayuko; and you are?"
"Kyo Sohma, are you one of the teachers for class 3C?"
"Yes. It looks like I found one of my students."
"Bye and thanks."
"Bye." Kyo walked down the long hallway taking in his surroundings. All the walls were brick and the whole buildings seemed like it belonged in some sort of murder mystery in England based in the 18th century. They were a few paintings on the wall but there were many large glass windows that went nearly to the bottom of the floor and to the ceiling, and these ceilings were pretty high up. When he came to the end of the hall way he looked to his left to see the office and a woman, elderly, helping out a small brown haired girl with some papers.
"Excuse me, can you help me with something, please." Kyo said the lady.
"Yes, what is it you need?"
"I'm Kyo Sohma a freshman and I need to package that was sent to everyone's home but I didn't get mine."
"Oh, okay then, one second." With that she scurried off to her desk to find the package. Kyo turned to the small girl next to him.
"Hey, what class are you in?" Kyo asked.
"…" The girl said nothing.
"Are you a freshman?" Kyo asked her and she nodded faintly. "What's your name?"
"… Machi…" She said quietly.
"Okay Machi. I'm Kyo." Machi still said nothing; she just stood there staring straight ahead at nothing in particular, just a bulletin board at the other end of the wall. The office lady came back over and had two large, full, yellow envelopes and handed one to each of them. They both nodded and headed out of the office into the hallway.
"Wait, Machi, I have your package." Machi stopped dead on tracks quiet far down the hallway and came back to him. They traded envelopes and Kyo looked at the small girl in front of him, 'What's up with her?'
"Hey are you okay?" Kyo asked.
"Yeah I just hate first days."
"Same, I think it'll be okay though."
Machi just looked up at him and nodded faintly again like she did in the office and walked off down the hall in a hurry. Kyo just shook his head and opened the envelope to read what roommate he had,
Room 214: Kyo Sohma and Yuki Sohma.
"Oh are you kidding me?"
~O~O~O~O~O~O~O~
As Tohru walked down the hall with Saki and Arisa, she met them earlier in the hallway with Arisa while they were talking together; they were heading for their own rooms. In the hall way they ran into Kyo again and Saki and Arisa couldn't help but notice that Tohru and him seemed to like each other.
"Who's that?" Arisa asked.
"Kyo, I met him this morning."
"Hmm, what interesting waves." Saki said.
"What?" Arisa and Tohru said to her.
"Nothing,"
They walked to room 216 where Saki and Arisa were staying and Tohru headed down to room 217 where her and her roommate will be staying. Tohru looked at her papers she had reserved this morning with all the information she needed.
Room 217: Tohru Honda and Machi Kuragi.
She opened the door to see and girl on the floor, hurled over and her things everywhere.
"Oh my God!" Tohru gasped and ran over to the girl on the floor; the girl looked at her in shock and stood up and headed for the door but Tohru grabbed her arm.
"Where are you going?"
"I'm sorry…"
"Why did you do this?"
"It's nothing, I'm sorry."
"Well you're not going anywhere."
"… I'll clean it up."
"I'll help."
"No, no it's fine."
"No, no I'm your roommate and hopefully your friend in the future so I'll help."
Machi just stared at the girl as she began to turn on the lights and pick the belongings on the floor, Machi helped clean up too.
