-Izumi's POV-
It's 5 am. I sigh. 'I woke up too early. Classes don't start until 7.' I thought as I walked around the boys' dorm.
"Hey." A familiar voice behind me said. I turned around to look.
"Good Morning, Kouji." I smiled at him.
He just stared at me like I was from another planet. "What?" I asked him.
He didn't answer. He just started walking so I followed.
-Flashback-
Kouichi then left. I was alone with Kouji.
'Kouji and Kouichi really look alike.' I thought while staring at him.
I guess he sensed it. "Why the hell, are you staring at me?" He said.
I was surprised that he noticed but I hid it well. I simply gave him a smile then said "Nothing. I just thought you and Kouichi looked alike."
Kouji, who just finished packing, stood up from his place and looked at me straight in the eye. "So?" he asked. I ignored his icy stare. "What?" I asked him still smiling.
"Well, wouldn't you ask why?" Kouji said. "Everyone does." He added while he closes his eyes.
"Would you want me to?" I asked.
This caught him off guard. He just looked at me silently. I guess it was a no.
I smiled. "Thought so."
There was complete silence. I'm guessing that the reason he gave me that unwelcoming attitude was because he didn't like people butting into his business.
He took his things. "I'll see you." He said breaking the silence.
"Uh, yeah, sure." I said. I offered to help him but he refused. He said something about me fixing my own things.
"I'll come back later."
"Huh? Why?" I asked curiously.
He sighed. "Kouichi asked me to assist you, remember?"
I smiled at him. "Oh… yeah! Thank you."
He just nodded and took off.
Later that day, Kouji gave me a tour of the school. Nothing exceptional happened. He simply pointed out which is which and which is where. Things like that. The tour wasn't awkward either. Okay, fine. At first it was a bit, but then it changed gradually.
We just talked about simple and random stuff. I asked him a few questions about the school and its activities and he answered. I was even surprised he actually answers my questions. After all, I already figured out Kouji wasn't one to talk to people he doesn't trust.
Eventually, I ended up asking him how they interacted with girls. He frowned and I actually thought I did something to offend him. Turns out, he happens to have 'fan girls'.
I remember laughing at that time.
He scowled saying, "I'd like to see you laugh when it's you whom those girls stalk. You don't know how it feels like when one of those girls brag about having your underwear." He said in monotone.
I laughed and gave him a friendly pat at the back. "Don't worry, I'm sure they're keeping your underwear clean."
He 'bonked' my head lightly. "Stupid."
-End of Flashback-
"So, why are you up so early?" I asked.
"I always wake up this early." He said.
"I see." I replied. Then suddenly my stomach started grumbling. I blushed.
Kouji looked at me. "C'mon, let's eat. I know you didn't eat last night."
I looked at him with a grin on my face. "I didn't know you cared."
He shrugged. "You weren't in the cafeteria last night and Kouichi told us you didn't want to eat."
"Oh… I see." GRUMBLE my stomach grumbled once again. I turned red from embarrassment. I've never done that for a long time: blushing. This school is starting to change me, I can feel it.
oOoOoOo
Kouji and I didn't have much of a conversation during breakfast. I'm not complaining. I actually liked the silence. Besides, I wasn't in the mood. I was still surprised of actually blushing – even if it was out of embarrassment.
After eating breakfast, Kouji and I went our separate ways. It was almost time for school and I haven't change.
I opened the door of Kouichi and my room.
"Good Morning, Kouichi!" I smiled at him.
"Morning, Mizui." He said as he stretched. "So, where have you been?"
"I ate breakfast with Kouji."
Kouichi's eyes suddenly grew wider. "Kouji?"
I nodded, surprised by Kouichi's reaction.
"Wow. That's a first."
I smiled at him. "And why is that?"
"Kouji's not a people person." Kouichi said as he handed me a cup of milk.
I took the cup. "Which means?"
"Only I could persuade him to accompany, assist or whatever, someone."
"Oh, so you're saying that he ate with me without being persuaded by you."
Kouichi gave me a thumb's up. "Exactly."
I laughed.
"So, what did you do?" he said, eyeing me.
"What do you mean?" I said.
"Well, you must have done something for Kouji to actually be civil towards you." Kouichi said.
"Nothing really." I told him as I drank the milk that he gave me.
Kouichi laughed. "Maybe he fell for you!"
"cough cough" I, obviously, coughed, choking from the milk I just drank. "W-w-what?"
"Hey, calm down. There's no way Kouji's going to fall for a guy."
"A guy?" I said.
"Huh? Of course Mizui."
'Oh that's right. I'm a guy right now.' I thought
"Yeah, right." I said.
"What's with that? It's as if you ARE a girl." Kouichi said with a raised brow.
"NO WAY! Of course I'm not."
"Easy, man… You know? Come to think of it, when you wear a dress and a long wig, nobody would even think of you as a guy."
"Th-that's nonsense!" I said.
"I guess so… So you're that pretty boy type. You know… a bishounen."
I laughed nervously. "Y-yeah. That's right." I decided to change the topic before anything gets out of hand. "By the way, where did this milk come from?"
"Oh, you see, they always give milk in the morning."
I simply nodded and drank the remaining milk in my cup.
"Now, anyway, let's prepare for school. I wouldn't want you to be late for your first day."
I smiled at him and started preparing for my first day. 'I am right. This school is really starting to bring the old Izumi back. I don't think I like it.'
