By lunch, the whole school was a buzz about the hot new foreign kid, Akito Hayama. Some girls had even gone to the main office to pick up forms for a fan club. Akito though he was aware, couldn't care less about this new place or anything happening in it. He got his lunch, picked an empty table, cracked open his book, and began his eat-n-read session that had happed every day since he'd moved. A group of girls made there way over to his table. They stood there for a minute or so, before the girl who seemed to be the leader of the pack let out a fake cough.

"Ahem."

He still didn't look up.

"A-HEM."

Nothing. Just as absorbed as he was before.

"Ahem!"

Nope. All attention still focused on his book.

"A-HEM!!"

"keep you shorts on, blondie." the apparently indifferent boy wave his hand in dismissal. "I know you there. I just don't care."

"heh." She twitched. I'll ignore that last little comment! "Hi. I'm Kimberly Hawks. But everyone calls me Kimi" She smiled and extended her hand, which jingled due the many bangles and plastic bracelets around her wrists. "How do you do, Akito?"

"Hayama."

"eh?" she said tilting her head.

"Hayama," he repeated, flipping a page. "You are to call me by my family name. In my county, it is just plain rude to identify someone by their given name when you have no previous acquaintance, whatsoever. I understand that American people are unaware of the honnorifics system, so I'll let that one go. However, I refuse to be referred to in such a friendly matter by some girl I just met 5 minutes ago. You are to call me Hayama, Hawks-san."

By this point, Kimi was quite angry. She'd just been humiliated by the sizzling new guy for simple introducing herself and saying hello in an AMARICAN and friendly manner. She was starting to figure out that her usual tactics weren't going to work on this guy.

"I don't think you know who you're talking to!" she attempted to say calmly, but came out with a hit of annoyance and anger.

"I believe I was just told who I was speaking to. Your name is Kimberly Hawks, is it not?"

That only made the angry Kimi even madder. "I strongly suggest you change you rude tone!" she spat, attempting to be as quiet as possible. "I can make your life miserable here if you don't be a bit nice. Come on, smile at least!"

He got up with his tray, never once looking away from his book. "I'll keep my so called 'rude tone', thanks. I doubt you can me anymore un happy than I already am for being here in the first place," the threw away his tray. "If I'm nice to someone I don't like or I'm indifferent to, I don't feel as if I'm being nice. It feels more like lying. I don't particularly enjoy lying. And," he said before leaving the room, face still buried in book. "my smiles are reserved for my Guardian Angel. Now, I strongly suggest you take a different approach the next time you try to talk to me, Hawks-san. Now, if you'll excuse me." And with that, the boy exited the building for the court, the place in which he dwelled in for the rest of the lunch hour.

Oh! I wasn't expecting that…Elizabeth thought while scurrying around campus, attempting to walk and read at the same time. Her book had captured her full attention, so she didn't notice the designed boot that simple placed itself in the position to trip her. She fell, her bag and all it's countenance spilling out all over the ground.

"Oh dear," she whispered to herself. It's Kimberly! Frick!

"Watch where you're going, four-eyes." Kimi cackled, stomping upon a small dinosaur book that was in the bag. "oh look! You got your creepy nerd germs all over my new shoes!"

"kiss her feet and make it better!" called a random voice from an uprising crowed.

"yeah!" snickered one of her girls. "kiss her feet!"

It continued on this way until Elizabeth felt sick and just wanted to go home. She was about to kiss Kimi's feet when someone protested from the back of the crowed.

"Hawks-san, leave her alone."

The whole crowed turned to see the new guy, Akito Hayama. However this time, his face wasn't buried in a book. No, now her was looking dead at Kimi. IS famous death glare that the foolish Americans didn't know about yet.

"oh! Akito!" Kimi said slimily. "are you trying to put yourself at the bottom of the food chain?" she snapped her fingers and some brawny looking boys appeared. "Really. If you'd just left four-eyes alone, this wouldn't of had to happen." With that, she motioned her hand forward, and the boys ran at Akito. Upon their arrival, Akito had already jumped—a grand 10ft—into the air, landing outside of them. He wasn't in any kind of stance, just standing. The boy got a bit insulted at started going at him all at once. In about 10 seconds, the were all lying in a heap on the ground.

"how…" Kimi started, unable to find the rest of her words.

"karate" he said briefly, before he kneeled and started to pick up Elizabeth's stuff.

"e-eh?" she blinked "what are you doing?"

Akito looked at her funny. "I'm assuming you don't want to leave your belongings in the dirt." He picked up the book with a t-rex on the cover and brushed it off. "you like dinosaurs?" he asked, examining the book before placing it inside of the bag.

"w-well—"

"me too." He said, putting the last of her items back in her bag and picked it up, slinging it around his shoulder. He then offered his hand. "I still have unpacking to do, but you could come over to my house and take a look at my models. I've got a 1967 special edition. We could also read through some of the old Dinosaur encyclopedias. I've got tons." She took his hand and quickly thought about the offer.

"Um, sure. But you have to help me get home…I'm afraid of the night…"

Akito shrugged. "Whatever floats your boat, I guess." Just they were about to walk off, Kimi called out

"What are you doing?!" She cried. "You could have been a popular! Plus, you said if you didn't like someone, you wouldn't be nice to them!"

Akito shook his head. "I don't give a shit about being popular. And I think she's interesting. Thus, I like her. I met her this morning, she sits next to me in 1st period, and I am unaware of her family name thus…" he said walking. "I'm going home with Elizabeth-chan." He said almost mockingly, before completely disappearing with the relived girl into the busy city street.
