Chapter 2: First Day

"Momo-chan, you look so cute!" Matsumoto said, obviously referring to the school uniform she was wearing. "You really think so?"

"Of course! I'm sure Hitsugaya will love it! Now come on, let's go or you'll be late."

Driving down the road, Matsumoto continued to assure Momo the day would be fine. However, nervousness continued to eat its way into Momo's heart. Utterly putrid and wretched feelings mixed and jumbled within her mind.

"Don't worry too much about it. I'm sure you'll make friends!"

"How are you so sure?"

"Cuz you're you." Just as she finished her statement, the car pulled to a stop, and Matsumoto once more, wished Momo luck before she left. Treading lightly, she gave one last look to Matsumoto before finally taking the first step into the hall. On her way, she noticed the different clumps of people together. It was as if an invisible wall was separating them.

There were the people listening to their music, and apparently dancing. One guy even gave a Momo a quick smile. Another group was talking about sports and teams and such, while another group was comprised of only girls. Each of them had kind looking faces, yet at the same time, emitting a vicious aura.

She made her way past all the different clusters and finally found herself at her locker. After a minute of figuring out how to operate the lock, she opened the locker and placed pile of books in her backpack. It was then that a certain white-haired boy walked down the hall. He didn't notice her for she was crouched down low, but she had definitely noticed him. "Hitsugaya…" She faintly whispered to herself. Running up from behind him was another orange haired boy, and a blond one.

Hitsugaya's locker was just a few steps away, meaning they were probably going to see a lot of each other throughout the year. Snapping out of her delusions, she continued in her process of putting away her books, then took out her schedule and headed towards the proper room.

With a heavy backpack pulling down on her back, she trudged through ocean of people that had arrived. How many of them were there? She couldn't tell, but she was definitely frustrated by all traffic in her way, people stopping, people walking too slow.

Finally, she arrived at her first class, algebra II. Slightly relieved by the fact that math was her specialty, she laid out her books and rested her head upon her palm.

"So like I said-" An orange haired boy droned on towards Hitsugaya, both of them walking into the room.

"And like I said, shut up!"

After sitting down, the entire class was greeted by the entrance of the teacher. First, announcing the announcements, then going directly to the day's agenda.

"Your homework will workbook pages 56-60, and for right now, please take notes on section 3.1 and 3.2, and do pages 70-71 numbers 2-56 evens."

It was a known fact that anyone daring enough to make a complaint would be greeted by the harshest of punishments, and with this fact came the result of a silent classroom. Hitsugaya was never one to stray away from his work, but when he noticed Momo, his attention was caught completely.

Time continued to pass until class was finally over. Rather than going over to meet Ichigo, Hitsugaya quickly went to Hinamori, surprising the latter.

"H-Hitsugaya?" Accidentally saying his name, she looked away. "I mean…what is it?"

"Do I know you from somewhere?" The more he looked at her, the more entranced he became.

"O-O-Of course not."

"Then how do you know my name already?"

Author's note: So how's Momo gonna get outta this one? Any ideas out there? I would greatly appreciate it, and I know it's really slow right now, but it'll get better soon. Please review and I'll update when I reach 28 reviews. Also, I'm kinda debating over whether I should add a lemon or not, meaning the rating my change.
