"Raku! Raku! Guess what! Guess what!" Chitoge was jumping up and down with excitement.

"Umm… You got free ramen?"

"No! Although I would like some ramen… What was I gonna say again? Oh yeah! Marika's son, Takeo, is transferring to Riko and Hiroshi's class today!"

"Oh! Marika's back from England?"

"Not yet. Takeo is coming first, then Marika and Nobuo. Takeo will stay at our place while his parents are still in England."

"Ok honey. Let's go get some ramen."

"Good morning Hiroshi!" said Riko, as she went to take her seat next to Hiroshi.

"Hi Riko."

"Saturday was nice, huh? Getting to meet Katsuo and Kazumi."

"Yeah… And Riko, try not to be so obvious when you have a crush on someone…"

"Huh?! W-what are you talking about? I-I don't have a crush on anyone!" Riko was flustered.

Hiroshi sighed. Sometimes, his friend could be too obvious. "Riko… You were blushing whenever you looked at Katsuo. Plus, whenever he talked to you, you would stutter, and your face would turn so red! It was quite funny to watch actually."

Riko stared at Hiroshi. "Oi! T-that's not funny!"

Hiroshi just smirked. "Lesson's starting."

"Hello class!" Misaki-Sensei exclaimed. "First off, we need to take the register. Chiyoko Adachi."

"Here Sensei!"

"Riko Ichijo."

"Here Sensei!"

"Aiko Konayagi."

"Here Sensei!"

"Gorou Machida."

"Here Sensei!"

"Hiroshi Maiko."

There was no answer. Riko glanced at Hiroshi. What is he doing? Daydreaming during the register… She sighed, then she realised. Hiroshi was staring at a girl, and that girl was no other than Aiko Konayagi. Aiko was one of the most popular girls in their class. She was not only popular with the boys, but with the girls too. Not only was she sweet, caring and pretty, but smart as well. She was also one of the class reps. Most girls came to her for help with studying or makeup tips. Riko smirked. Now who's the obvious one?

"Hiroshi Maiko?"

Riko tapped his arm.

"Huh?" Hiroshi looked up. "Oh. Here Sensei!"

Misaki-Sensei carried on with the register, and finally it was over.

"I know that Riko just joined our class last week, but there is another student joining us today!"

A boy walked in. Every girl in the room was blushing and swooning. He had jet-black hair, and light brown eyes that almost looked golden. He was wearing a leather jacket and ripped jeans.

"Look at his leather jacket!"

"So cool!"

"I bet he has a girlfriend already though…"

"Are you sure? I hope not…"

"Hello everyone," the boy said. "My name is Naruto Uzumaki!"

The class was silent.

"Just kidding! My name's actually Takeo Fujimoto. I've lived in England since I was three years old, and I am fluent in English. I also love reading manga and watching anime, as you can probably tell from my first introduction." He smirked.

"Oooh! He's cute, really smart and has a sense of humour!" All the girls were gushing.

"What? That wasn't funny at all…" The boys were starting to hate him.

"Ok Takeo! Can you please sit in the empty seat next to Riko over there?"

"Aww… Sensei, he can sit here!"

"No! Here!" All the girls wanted to sit next to him.

Takeo walked over to the empty seat. Wow, this girl is pretty cute. She must be foreign, she has blonde hair and blue eyes… "Hey." Takeo flashed a smile at Riko.

"Hi, I'm Riko Ichijo. Nice to meet you."

"I'm Hiroshi Maiko."

"Ichijo? Maiko?" Mom's friend's kids! "Guys! Remember me?"

Riko and Hiroshi were both clueless.

"You don't remember me?"

They both nodded. "Sorry Takeo," said Riko. "We don't remember you."

"Do you guys remember anything?"

They shook their heads.

"Umm… Marika Tachibana? Your parents friend? Does that ring a bell?"

Marika Tachibana? Riko thought. Isn't that mom's friend who's really frail and get's sick a lot…

"Marika?" Riko and Hiroshi said at the same time. "That's mom's friend who lives in England."

"Yeah! That's my mom. She and my dad are still in England though. They're coming to Japan next week."

"Oh! Well I guess we were friends when we were little right?" Riko asked.

"Yup! At least I think so…"

"Cool!" Hiroshi exclaimed.

"Ok class!" Misaki-Sensei said. "Time to start now!"

The bell rung to signal the end of school. The students rushed out of the classroom.

"Hey Takeo!"

"Yeah Hiroshi?"

"Where are you staying tonight since your parents aren't here yet?"

"Oh, I'm staying at Riko's place."

"Oh, ok. Well, she has to help out in the classroom today, so you're gonna have to wait for her."

This is my chance to get to know Riko. thought Takeo.

"You want me to wait with you Takeo? I've got nothing to do, and I was planning to wait for her anyways."

"Oh. No thanks. I can wait by myself."

"Ok then. See you tomorrow." Hiroshi left to go home.

"Bye Riko! See you tomorrow!"

"Bye Aiko!"

Takeo saw Riko walking out of the classroom. "Hey."

"Oh, hi Takeo. You didn't have to wait for me you know."

"Nah. I'm staying at your place."

"Oh! Cool! C'mon. Let's walk home then."

While they were walking home, Takeo and Riko talked about their families. When suddenly, it started to rain.

"Damn it! I don't have an umbrella!" Riko said.

"Don't worry, I have one. We can share."

"Thanks Takeo, but I don't think that umbrella is big enough for both of us." Riko said, pointing at the small umbrella Takeo had just taken out of his bag.

"It's fine."

Takeo opened his umbrella, and they squeezed under it. "Come on let's hurry."
