Amu walked to school quickly her shoes tapping on the concrete. While she walked her thoughts overwhelmed her. No matter how hard she tried she couldn't get a certain blue hair midnight blue eyed guy out of her mind. It seemed to follow her every thought leaving a trail behind the dark recesses of her mind. It was a huge pain in the neck and gave her a headache which didn't help her condition. She kept wondering why every time she looked at him she felt a bond a connection that made her feel like he could understand what she's going through. She knew there was more to him than meets the eye. She finally saw an escape from her thoughts as she saw the school. The school was pretty big and was brand new. Inside the school there were brightly colored red and blue walls. They were the school colors and showed school spirit. The school had many clubs such as the art club, drama club and chess club. The classrooms were filled with all types of the newest technologies. Lastly there is the schools sport teams which were basketball, football and soccer.
Entering the building Amu went to her locker. Twisting her combination lock she quickly gathered her books and headed to class. While heading to class she remembered that she had to go to Ikuto's house today. With that thought she screamed in horror mentally her dad was going to kill her. You got that right girl! Well we have to suck it up and deal with it or else our grades would go down the drain. You do have a point but the beatings will only get worse. I know but our grades is the only thing I'm allowed to have control over and if it means worse beatings then I'm ok with that my life's ending anyway. With that thought her conscious shut up. Heading to her first class of the day she screamed. Why was this guy in her every thought? Even worse she would have to face the object of her thoughts this afternoon. Sitting down in her seat she took notes as the teacher drawled on and on about history. It seemed to be like this every day as the day dragged by slowly except this time she couldn't pay attention. Soon the day ended and she found herself walking to Ikuto's house. Reaching the door she took a deep breath and knocked twice. The door opened revealing a dark midnight blue eyed guy with messy hair.
Ikuto escorted her to the couch and sat down. Amu was surprised she thought that they would have people answering the door and maids scurrying about. Maybe Ikuto wasn't that rich after all. She was pulled out of her thoughts when Ikuto started talking about the project. "Ok so I'll do the research and you do the drawing part ok? Realizing he was talking to her she replied "Kay". He then smiled at her and she freaked out. Wasn't he supposed to be some stuck up spoiled brat who only cared for himself? Wait why did she care? While she mentally berated herself for melting at his smile he was staring amusedly at her strange contorted angry expression. Deciding it didn't matter what she felt because she was dying anyways she took out her drawing tools. Looking at the paper she noted that this project would count a lot on the regents and could help a lot of students who failed at many subjects. The project was a philosophy project to learn more about your partner and how they react to many things. The first part of the part of the project was to learn more about your partner and draw a picture based on the information you gathered. They worked for hours and Amu discovered a lot about Ikuto and how he was building a charity for kids who needed food in Japan due to the big disaster that had occurred. She decided that he wasn't the bad guy she thought he would be and he made her laugh. By the time she left she realized he made her forget about all her problems with her dad and for once she felt a sense of freedom and happiness.
