First day of freshman year (Monday):

The next day all the students woke up and they were depressed. Mainly because it was Monday morning and classes started today and they were the rare teenager that actually liked to wake up in the morning. Some boys woke up and groaned in annoyance and some girls did the same, others cried at the fact that they weren't at home anymore. Shigure did the same, not cried physically but mentally. He would much rather be at home than at another boarding school, he been in and out of them since he could remember. He turned in his bed to see that his roommate was gone. 'What was his name again, Hatori… No, that wasn't his name, was it? I don't know, maybe Harry? Haru? Bill? I don't know.' Shigure sat up and walked over to get ready.

Once he was done he walked out the bathroom picked up his bag and ran out the room. He was running to find someone he knew, and then he found him. "Ayame!" He yelled out and Ayame turned around from the bulletin board he was looking. "Hey Shigure. How you doing?" Ayame said, "Nothing much. What are you looking at?" "Nothing much, God this school seems booooorrring." "Yeah, there better be something good here." "Hey maybe this is, we have a relative here because they called on the speakers for guy with the last name Sohma." "Cool, did you get the first name?" "No" "You're hopeless." They both walked to their first class.

When class ended Shigure, Ayame, Kazuma, who just so happened to be Ayames roommate, and Hatori, they still didn't know that he was their cousin. They all went outside for lunch and sat on a bench together, well Kazuma stood. "So Kazuma, where you from? Because I've never seen you from around here before, and this city isn't that big." Shigure asked. "I'm just a few miles north from here." "Oh I lived up there." Ayame said, "Okay let's cut the meaningless small talk and talk like normal guys." Shigure said and they agreed. "Hey wait what do we have next for lessons?" Hatori asked. "Oh we have math and-" Shigure was completely unaware of what Kazuma was saying because he was only concentrating on the red haired beauty that just walked out the school building and looking like she needed to cool off. "Shigure? Shigure?" Ayame said waving a hand in front of Shigures face. Kazuma laughed, "Oh don't even think about it Shigure. Rumour has it that she is engaged to the head masters son, so don't go fooling around with okay." Shigure then noticed a guy their age with black hair walked up to her and was talking to her and looked angrily at him. He put his hand on her shoulder but she swiped it off and walked away from him and headed back inside and he sighed heavily and headed back inside shaking his head slightly.

"Shigure promise us you won't do anything with her." Ayame said, "We wouldn't want you to get expelled." Shigure was silent for a few moments but finally said, "Okay I promise." So Shigure and the three over boys walked off to their next class. But then again Shigure never kept his promises.

"Hey," Shigure said to the red haired beauty he saw yesterday. "Do I know you?" She said back to him, "No but I know you." "Really, then what's my name?" "I don't know." She laughed, "What do you know about me?" "Nothing, but I do know the fact that you're really good looking." "Oh really, who the hell are you?" "I'm Shigure Sohma, nice to meet you." "I'm Iris Fujioka." She held out her hand for him to shake and shook it. "Iris? Are you American or something?" "Actually I am American and Japanese. My mother is Japanese and my father is American." "Cool, me I'm all Japanese." She laughed. "Look, um, do you wanna' go out some time?" He said smiling at her and she smiled back, "Okay look, I have a boyfriend." "And this boyfriend you're serious about still seeing him?" She laughed again, "Yeah I am, sorry about that. Anyway I know your reputation Mr Sohma." "Is that so, what is my reputation?" "You know, you're a womanizer, a flirt and a tease. All you want to do is bed me." "That's not true, I think I could really love you." "Oh really, I highly disagree with that. Now leave me alone I see my boyfriend and he is heading over here and he can be highly jealous." "I don't blame him." "Just leave." "It's okay; I'll see you later then." "Okay, Wait!" "What?" "What class are you in?" "Well we're in the same year I see." He said pointing to the paper by her which had all the information of her year on it. "Yeah I'm in year one, also in class one, are you?" She said. "I'm one as well, so I'll be seeing you in class." And he walked off. 'Maybe it wouldn't be nice if I dated him, no, no, no you are with someone else. But then again I couldn't hurt just to be friends right?' Iris thought.

Ayame was spacing out, even when Shigure was waving his hand in front of his face. "Ayame are you there? Earth to Ayame… Hey!" Shigure yelled at him until he noticed that Ayame was staring at a black haired girl. "Ooooooh, so who's the girl?" Shigure asked. "Oh no one, she's in my class, I really like her." "Really, I had no idea." Shigure said sarcastically. "What's her name?" "Mine and she's really friendly." "Nice, what you gonna' do, are you going to ask her out?" "No, maybe I don't know." Ayame slipped down in his chair and Shigure laughed. "Oh find out what her after school activities are and do them." "What if she's a cheerleader?" Shigure laughed, "Then you're a cheerleader." Shigure said leaving, and laughing, for Ayame to think. 'God I hope she's not a cheerleader, please be something that won't get my ass kicked.'

Later that evening Ayame walked into the lounge room where Shigure, Kazuma, Iris and Hatori were sat on an old sofa. "Hey Ayame, where you been?" Kazuma asked. "I just had first sewing class." Ayame said and there was a long pause until Shigure burst out laughing. "Why the hell were you sewing?" "Because of you, you said to do the after school activities Mine did, and apparently she does sewing. She wants to make dresses or something when she's older." "So you talked to her?" "Yeah a little, a lot of the girls were curious why I was the only boy there." Shigure laughed again and Ayame chucked a book at him. "Oh crap I have to give this paper in to the science teacher. I'll be back in a few minutes." Hatori turned around to fast out the door and the next thing he knew he ran right into a girl. "Are you okay man?" Shigure said and the group stood up and saw Hatori lying on a blond girl rubbing the back of her head.

"Are you okay?" Hatori asked the girl. "Are you blind?" She yelled in his face, "Can you get off me?" She said and he hurried up off her and helped her up. "Thank you, good bye." "Wait, Mayuko?" Hatori said and she turned around. "Yes? How do you know my name?" "We've met; on the first day of school remember." "Oh Hatori right, I had no idea you were blind." She said in an angry tone. "I said I was sorry okay." "Hey Mayuko," Shigure and Iris said together. "Hey, what you two doing here?" "Sitting," Shigure said, "How do you know her?" Shigure asked Iris, "She's my roommate." Iris said. "Are you okay?" Hatori asked again to Mayuko. "I'm fine." Mayuko said, "Don't you have to leave or something?" "Oh crap." Hatori said running out the door again. "Watch out for running into people!" Mayuko yelled down the hall to Hatori.
