I walked towards my first class, which happened to be math. Which I was extremely good at, thank goodness because it's in everything we do. All of the third years, like myself, had gone into their classes. I remained outside the door a few moments longer, prolonging the wait of introducing myself. Taking a deep breath, I wished myself luck and walked into the 3A class room. As if on cue the bell rang, closing the door behind me I made my way to my new teacher, and handed her the transcripts. She had gray hair, and was so skinny she could probably penetrate me with her bones, but she seemed nice so I relaxed around her.
She looked over the transcripts I had handed her, and gave them back to me. Since the class was still conversing she quieted them down with a high pitched whistle. Immediately the room went silent. I would have laughed at the foolishness of it all, had it not been for standing in front of people I didn't know. Clearing her throat she began "Class, this is May Springler, and she will be joining our class. Tell us something about yourself May." Our teacher said. Taking a deep breath I began "My name is May, as you know. I like being up in high places, music, and if you know of any secret passages please tell me because I love to explore." I smiled at them shyly. To my surprise everybody 'Awww'd' at me. I blinked innocently at them and they got throbbing hearts in their eyes. I never knew that rich people in Japan were like this, must be the anime. "You may sit next to Takashi Morinozuka." She informed me. I nodded and spot Mori in the back of the class with Hunny to his right an empty seat to his left.
Walking over to my new seat, I waved at Hunny and Mori slightly. Taking my seat I listened intently to the lecture though I already knew everything she was talking about. It wouldn't be fair to distract those who were learning this. None the less, I took diligent notes. My classes flew by exactly like that, people developed weird hearts in their eyes and I always ended up sitting next Mori. The last bell rang, signaling I could leave the advanced history class. Collecting my stuff, I walked down the hallway, following Mori, even though I knew a short cut. Hunny sat on his shoulders talking about cakes and sweets, as we headed to the car that would take us to the carnival.
The ride felt like forever because I was dying to go on the rollercoasters. Gotta love the speed ;). Kyoya and Brandon were arguing the whole time about who paired with who when the guests left. The guests had two to three hours to be with their specified friends. I, on the other hand, could do whatever I wanted in the meantime. Finally, the ride ended and we stopped at a ride filled carnival.
Like all carnivals it had vendors full of food that was as unhealthy as two of Hunny's cakes. I opened the car door and was about to take off when somebody grabbed the back of my shirt. I clawed at the air trying to get to the carnival. "What did we discuss about being at a highly populated place?" Kyoya asked. I sighed and responded accordingly "To never ever get involved with someone I do not know." My monotone reply seemed to satisfy him for now because he let go and I was off.
The colors were vibrant and seemed to glow every time I looked at one, I walked around, dodging people as I went. Looking to the left I saw a ride where you spun around in a rotating seat while being swung around. That was my first ride for the day. The lines were long but worth it, and it had been hours since I had last seen any of the host club members. Taking the cotton candy I bought from a nice employee I walked along the paths. The sky was scarce of light, but all the colorful lanterns made up for it. Happily I munched on the cotton candy, eating the pink fairy floss with joy.
Suddenly a hand pulled me into the alley that was right next to the cotton candy machine, the worker panicked and ran in a random direction. I pushed the thoughts to the back of my mind and focused on the now. The hand felt like it was crushing my arm, wind rushed through my ears as the thug flung me into the wall. My head snapped back and hit the wall. Immediately my survival side surfaced.
The throbbing of my head went into the back of my mind, five dirty alcohol smelling men surrounded me. Two grabbed my arms and slammed me back into the wall. "Look here boys, we have a little loner," The leader mocked. My mind went blank, I no longer thought of anything unnecessary. The leader had cold eyes, "Let's have a little fun," his comrade holding my left arm down suggested. I smiled, causing them to go into shock, because who smiles when bad things are about to happen to them? No one.
I flipped the guy who had made the wonderful suggestion over my head. As if he was shocked by electricity the one on my right jumped back, hands in the air like he was surrendering, only the thing was, I wasn't in the mood to take prisoners. Putting my foot on the wall behind me, I pushed off for more momentum. Doing a flip in midair for even more impact I punched the leader at the end of my flip. Landing, I quickly turned and elbowed his second in command in the throat, he was down just as quickly.
A force pushed me from behind, I was once again out of the alley and in to the public's eye. I got up as fast as I could and faced them with the strength that I had left. Banging my head started to take its toll, my backs aching came into my mind. I got hit again by a well-placed kick to my side. I was jolted out of my world and back into this one. The offender lasted about a moment or so until he was out cold by my anger filled attack. The pain once again surfaced, crap, I can't take all of them out without giving myself to instincts, and that never left them in very good shape, more like half dead.
Two blonde haired, one brown haired, and two red head blurred past me. I was still in attack position, hands in fists, thumb on the outside a wide sturdy stance. I watched as my brother and friends had no mercy on the people who attacked me. "I suggest you give up now, or you will inevitably come out of this without a few limbs," Kyoya muttered with a shadow casted over his glasses and eyes. They didn't heed his warning and attacked anyway. Hunny got two down in seconds, the twin were violently hurting their own victims, banging their head on the ground.
I relaxed, knowing that my instinct self did not have to come out. The pain took its place, I mumbled under my breath about stupid male genetics. Somebody once again grabbed my arm, I turned to punch the intruder. My punch got blocked, looking up I saw Mori. He looked into my eyes, it was over now, I was safe. Kneeling down, he pulled out a first aid kit, taking out disinfectant and a cloth he started cleaning a cut on my arm.
It was bleeding lots and the pain was brutal, not that the disinfectant helped. I gasped and grabbed Mori's free arm, trying to stifle the pain. He offered his hand I took that instead, hoping it would work better. His hand engulfed mine, I squeezed as hard as I could. Tears brimmed in my eyes, I shifted my weight from foot to foot. He finally got the blood flow to stop, and was now really cleaning it.
It was too much for me, I yanked against him, trying to get away. Mori pulled me into him, letting go of my hand his arm encircled my frame. His now free hand steadied my wounded arm as his other cleansed it. Tears threatened to spill, but I pushed them back and waited until the torture was over. "It's ok," he comforted. I felt my heart flutter a little. Finishing, he wrapped it with a bandage. I yawned with relief and weariness. He let go of me, I immediately missed his warmth. The sky was dark and Kyoya's police force swarmed around us putting the men on stretchers. Brandon came up to me, and examined me to see anything noticeably wrong with me.
They all started talking to me, but it was all mushed together and I didn't pay it any mind. I did notice however when Mori whispered something into Kyoya's ear. I checked out, too tired to process anything.
I was brought back into reality by a bright light, blinking I saw Kyoya holding a flash light. "Watch my finger," he told me. I stared trying to focus on it, but my eyes couldn't help but follow the light. The light was blinding and I wanted to look away, but was too entranced to do so. Kyoya clicked the flashlight off. I yawned, still tired. "Concussion," Kyoya diagnosed. My eyes got droopy, I felt my body sag from the labor of staying awake. "May, Mori has had experience with head injuries, he's going to take a look to estimate how bad the damage is," Brandon said. I laughed "The damage has been done young spirit," I told my brother, as Mori circled around me to check out the damage. "What?" Brandon wondered. "To leave a call back number, press five," I mumbled.
Mori touched the back of my head, I jolted a little bit, then relaxed when his hand steadied me. After prodding for a few minutes and me saying 'Ow'. I checked out again when he was done. Mori stood in front of me, crouched down, Kyoya and Brandon were too busy fighting to notice. I jumped onto his back and wrapped my arms around his neck. Hooking my hands around his neck, I held on as he carried me off to where ever.
I stared at his black spiky hair, it looked sharp from far away but from close up it looked incredibly soft. Lifting one of my hands from around his neck I gently touched his hair. It was silky soft like a feather, but thick and had comfort like a teddy bear. I smiled a half delirious, "Bear!" I exclaimed. I looked down on the host club members from my new height, they looked up at me funny, I giggled. "Mori, you are a bear aren't you?" I mumbled clumsily into his ear. I felt the rumble of his chest as he chuckled. He nodded, "Then your new name is 'Bear', ok?" I asked. He nodded, I sighed happily, warm and whatever other feeling that made me feel like I was safe, and yet having fun.
The thoughts about that did not last long, due to me falling asleep halfway to the car.
