Pauline's POV

"Coffee….I need coffee." I said walking through my house. I don't remember mentioning this but, I live alone. When I moved to Japan I left everything behind me, friends (not that I had many), family (except two), belongings (except pictures and a few personal things). If I didn't I would have still been stuck with those people in that place. Anyways… I am now roaming around my house at 3 am waiting for the coffee to finish perking. Now I am only up at three in the morning and I decided not to take my job seriously and wasted a lot of time daydreaming instead of baking. Hey! don't blame me it's hard not to think about that handsome redhead. I was baking things for the club as well as things for a catering gig for a business meeting, but I can't remember the businesses name at this point in time.

"Alright I just gotta finish these cookies and I'm done."

*Time skip till morning*

^Honk^ ^Honk^

"What! What was that!... holy shit it's like seven o'clock!... Fuck!" I ran through my house graing everything I needed for school. Grabbing my school bag, my tie and the baked goods and rush out of the house to the Ootori family car that was waiting for me. I helped but the boxes in the trunk and slid in the car.

"Good morning, Pauline. I see you've had a late start this morning." Kyoya greeted me with his usual sly smile.

"Shut it, Kyoya, no time for making me feel bad about making us both late." I retorted.

When we made it to school I told Kyoya to head to class and I would just drop of the baked goods at the club room and head to class myself.

"Alright here the key, lock up when you're done we don't need anyone in there messing with things."

"Sir! Yes! Sir!" I shout as I solute him. He deadpanned and walked off.

"How rude! leave without saying goodbye!" I shout after him.

"Goodbye" he retorted. How what and grumpy pants, someone doesn't like waking up in the morning. I headed off to the club room to drop the stuff off.

"Alright that's the cookies, cakes and tea biscuits. The cupcakes, and puff pastry, that's for the club and then there's Puff pastry, tea biscuits, single-portion cheesecakes and chocolate fudge brownies for the business meeting." I checked everything off my list. I'm suppose to meet the son of the business in the club room at lunch…. why can't I remember the name of the business? Oh well! I'll find out later. Time to head to class.

Kasanoda's POV

Man Pauline's late…. I hope nothing bad happened. I stared at the empty desk beside me. The teacher had already taught the lesson and handed out individual work for us to do, most of the class ignored the work and talked to each other some of them actually tried to do the work. There was a small knock on the door.

"Come in" the teacher shouted over the talking kids. I glanced up at the door. I wasn't sure what I was expecting to see but my heart fluttered when I seen her. There Pauline was, a late slip in her hand a bag slugged over her shoulder, her tie hanging loosely around her neck and hair a bit messy. She had dark circles under her eyes and her shoes weren't tied. She walked to the teacher and handed her the slip of paper and sat down in her desk. She tied her shoes and fixed her tie. I couldn't stop staring at her I was wondering why she looked the way she does. She took a comb out of her bag and ran it through her long brown hair…..what's wrong with me! She looked a bit more normal now other than the circles under her eyes.

"Ritsu?" She called me, she must have noticed me staring at her.

"Wh-what?" I asked. Her voice calling my name sounded like a sweet melody. I think i might like this girl…..but that can't be true I don't even know her!

"I said good morning and you kinda just stared….."She said as I was having an internal battle at the thought of me liking her.

"Oh, sorry about that I must of zoned out or something, and good morning Pauline." I answered back, I could feel my face start to heat up as she smiled at me I looked away quickly and tried to focus on the worksheet in front of me.

Pauline's POV

I chuckled to myself he's so adorable trying to hide that blush, his face is almost as red as his hair.

*timeskip to lunch*

I was waiting in the club room for the boy to show up to pick up the baked goods for his family's business meeting. I told Kyoya I would be using the club room to make the exchange, he was more or less cool with it. I was pulled from my train of thought when there was a knock on the door.

"Come in!" I called. I had my back turn away from the door sorting out the boxes.

"Hello… I'm here to pick up the baked goods, for the Kasanoda business meeting." Kasanoda….I turn around and come face to face with the extremely handsome redhead.

"Ritsu… hello, um…." His face went a bit pink when he seen is was me.

"Pauline! Hello um…. I'm-I'm here for the, the um, the baked goods…." He trailed off.

"OH! yes sorry about that!" I handed him a few of the boxes.

"Would you like my help bringing them to where they need to go?" I offered.

"Ummmm… yeah I didn't think there would be this many boxes…" He replied. I grabbed the rest of the boxes.

"Alright lead the way!" I exclaimed

"I hope you don't mind but we have to bring these to my family's house." Ritus explained

"It's no problem I'm happy to help!" so he lead me a few blocks from the school I'm guessing towards his home. He walked pretty fast and I couldn't help but notice when he slowed his pace or me to walk beside him. We made it to the Kasanoda syndicate.

"um don't be freaked out but we will be greeted by a bunch of people of we walk in." he warned me.

"Um okay….." we walked through the front gates and just like he warned we were greeted by a bunch of people.

"Good afternoon, young lord." They all called out as they bowed. That's kinda strange.

he walked me towards the biggest building.

"just set the boxes on this table and wait here I have to talk to my father." He said once we reached a meeting room. Ritsu disappeared behind some doors and came back with an envelope in his hands.

"Here this is your payment for the work that you have done."

"Thank-you." I looked around and something in me clicked. The Kasanoda family is one of the biggest mob families in Japan. I learned this in my training, I learned about all huge mob families. No wonder that name sounded so familiar.

"Ritsu?"

"Yes Pauline?"

"Your family is Yakuza, right?"
