Her Agony

O..o It's been like months since I first uploaded this story…I bet some of you probably already thought I lost interest or gave up on it. Haha. I wouldn't blame you. But no worries, really. I just happen to be one of those author's who suck at updating. And well because of other problems, but those just seem like mere excuses so I'm not going to bother explaining.

Sophomore

"Have fun, hu-" Before he could say 'honey', Amu slammed the door of her step-father's brand new BMW and swung her backpack over one shoulder. Silently, she walked through the gates of Seiyo High and disappeared behind a large group of students that were chattering about.

Feeling grouchy and tired as usual, Amu slowly trudged to her "comfort zone." But just as she was walking around the corner of the building, almost to her favorite spot in school, a young freshman crashed into her. The collision sent both girls falling backward on their backs. The younger teenager, the one with orange pigtails, got up first.

"IM SO SORRY! ARE YOU OKAY?" She shouted, rushing over to Amu once she saw the blood on the other girl's hand. "OH MY GAWSH! YOUR BLEEDING! YIKES! LEMME HELP YOU WITH THIS!" Her loud voice made students stop what they were doing and turn to the scene. A few even came over.

Amu pushed her hand aside just as the other girl was about to help her up. Then she got up and smoothed out her uniform. The pinkette walked away ignoring the dramatic girl completely.

"Hey, hey! You!" she yelled, running to Amu. "I said I was sorry! Are you still mad?"

Again, Amu ignored her and instead concentrated on getting away without bumping into anyone else.

"Forget it Yaya." The girl named Yaya turned around.

"Why isn't that girl answering me, Rima?" she whined. "Did Yaya do something wrong? I said sorry!" Rima gave out a sigh and rolled her eyes at her friend Yaya.

"She's Amu Hinamori. She doesn't like anyone, nor talk to anyone except when the teachers call on her. She's Cool N' Spicy." she explained. "I forgot to mention that earlier."

"That's so like you."

"Oh, shut up Hoshina" Rima muttered and turned around to find Utau Hoshina standing there with her arms crossed. They both glared at each other and scowled. People started to form a circle around the two girls, waiting to see if they were going to start a fight. Amu took that as a chance to escape and quietly slipped away from the mob. She looked around to find some students lined up in their lines and others in small groups.

They were all chatting about how they couldn't wait to start the new school year or how they missed each other over the summer. As she approached a group of girls, their voices dropped to hushed whispers. They glanced quickly at Amu, hoping she wouldn't hear them.

"That's who you're talking about? That gothish girl who just walked by?" someone whispered.

"Yeah, that's Hinamori Amu." another replied. "She's the one you should avoid. She doesn't really speak to anyone or bully anyone but she gives off this…this dark aura, y'know?"

"She glares at everyone who bothers or tries to make friends with her." a third girl added. "It's like she hates everyone."

"Then why doesn't she get tutored instead?" The first girl asked. "I mean what's the point? If she is rich and everything."

"I don't know," The third girl answered. "Probably cuz her parents force her or something. Poor thing…" Amu, though surprised by the remark managed to keep her face blank hiding what emotions she had.

At Seiyo, students always talked about Amu behind her back. Always. Even the teachers did.

They gossip mostly about who's dating who and things like that, but Amu was what most talked about. Every new student who entered the school would know about her in the matter of minutes. That was why it surprised Amu.

Nobody had ever said anything like that before. The majority (80 percent) of the students and teachers there would call her 'Cool N' Spicy' but leave her alone. Some (18 percent) of the students don't treat her nicely, but still, no one ever sympathized her. Amu was very popular at Seiyo High, so popular that she had her own fanclub. They thought of her as an idol and worshipped her like she was a goddess. But…Amu thought of them as annoying brats who always get in her way. (Which is pretty much true.)

Amu squatted down and stared at the cement ground wondering when the bell was going to ring. She pulled out her cellphone and saw that it was 2 minutes before the bell.

I guess I should find my line now, she thought and slid her phone back into her pocket. To Amu, her cellphone was really of no use. She didn't have any friends. She didn't need it for an agenda or an alarm clock. And she barely used it to text anyone either. Amu really had no idea why she even bothered getting one.

She walked around searching for her line and stopped when she found it. This year, she had Nikaidou for her homeroom teacher. He was so well known that even the anti-social people like Amu knew about him.

BRRIIIINNNGGG! The loud ringing of the bell caused Amu to jump at the noise. She blinked and quickly took notice in the fact that the person at the head of the line was starting to move towards the door. The students around her were all excited and nervous with anticipation. Amu…well, she stuck out like a sore thumb. There seemed to be a space between her and the other students in the line. A dark aura hung around her and created a wall between her and other classmates. She frowned upon remembering that today was the start of a new school year.

..x.

"Good morning class!" Nikaidou said cheerfully while smiling at his students. His eyes sweeped across the room, stopping at Amu for a split second before looking away.

"Good morning, Nikaidou-sensei!" The class chorused back.

"I know that you guys don't like arranged seatings…BUT," he paused. "we're going to have them anyways" he finished. A few "awwws" came from the girls (except Amu) so Nikaidou waited for them to stop before continuing. "Everybody please line up along the wall over there by the white board."

The class although not happy about it, reluctantly lined up by the wall.

"I know that you guys are very excited, but we will do one little thing before I assign you seats. We're going to introduce ourselves…starting with you right here." He said, patting the girl with russet curls who was standing at the front of the line.

"You don't need to make it too l-" She cut him off rudely and began introducing herself.

"Hello, my name is Saaya Samabuki," she said, while batting her lashes. Amu rolled her eyes, knowing very well the beginning speech of a snobby, girly-girl. She shook her head, mentally kicking herself for deciding to arrive at school on time. This was going to be a long day.

Amu stood leaning against the whiteboard while staring grumpily at the floor and when it was her turn, she only said one word and that was, "Amu."

Nikaidou stared at her and Amu naturally glared back. He heaved out a big sigh and moved on to the next person. After they finished the introductions, he started the real math class.

..Agony.x.

BBBBRRRIIINNNGGGG! Amu got out of the room the second the lunch bell rang and went to her locker to put away her textbooks. Then she headed off to the lunchroom with a group of fangirls/fanboys trailing a few feet behind her.

"Kya! Amu-sama is extra cool today!"

"Shh! Shut up, Chiyo!"

"Sorry, Haru!"

Amu turned around and glared, then continued walking.

"KYYYYAAAAAAA! Sorry, Amu-sama! We're sorry!" they bowed. She ignored them and resumed walking until she reached the cafeteria. The very loud lunch room immediately grew quiet as Amu stepped inside. They watched her move to a half empty table and sit on the other side. Almost immediately, the whole place was loud again. Students popped out of no where and crowded around Amu.

"Amu-sama, will you accept these chocolates?"

"Ammmmmmuuuu! Do you-"

"Please! Please sit with-"

"Amu-sammmaaaa! Come join us over th-" Before Amu could do anything, the girl named Yaya from before grabbed her hand and pulled her over to her table. The fangirls/fanboys just gaped in awe at the brave girl who just dragged their goddess away and did nothing to stop her. They stood frozen to the ground with their jaws on the floor.

"C'mon, Amu-chi! Sit with us!" she smiled, lighting up the whole cafeteria.

"I think you scared her, Yaya." Rima snorted. "Look at her."

Yaya turned to look at Amu, who looked up with an expressionless face.

"Ahh!" Yaya seized Rima's arm. "Amu-chi is being scary!" Rima rolled her eyes, how many times had she told her not to bother that girl? Probably so much that she lost count.

Amu lowered her face and stared blankly at her lunch. By now, the other students had gotten back on track and luckily for Amu, none of them were paying any real close attention to Yaya's table.

"Hinamori-san, would you like me to escort you to your next class?" A boy named Kairi asked her and like usual, she ignored him and left.

"AMU-CHI!" Yaya called. "Come backkk and eat lunch with us!"

Rima and the others stared at her.

"What?" she asked.

"Can't you see that she doesn't wanna be bothered? And besides, she already left."

"Oh…yeah. Right…"

..Agony.x.

The walk back to Amu's house was quiet. The only sound was the crunching of leaves under her feet. She replayed the events in her head. To Amu, today was a very tiring day. This year, there were more fanboys and fangirls than usual and they wouldn't leave her alone. Everywhere she went they would follow. It was a surprise that nobody stalked her home. Amu grimaced as she arrived at her house and unlatched the gate.

Amu rummaged through her backpack for her set of keys and opened the door to her so called, "home."

Sorry for the really suckish chapter! It was of no immportance really, its just a filler, I guess.

Please review!~
