Here is the first chapter! I'm so excited to post this…

You could tell I was trying to be really serious with this intro.

Kunugigaoka Junior High School is a prestigious academy dedicated to educating the next generation. Most would consider it the Ivy League of Junior high school as it provided the very best to empower its students. Academics, Sports, Arts. Kunugigaoka equips the best material to have their students master any subject. Of course with such dedication, its graduation rate is high along with the average grade of its students and their acceptance into equally prestigious high schools - Kunigigaoka high being one of them.

With such praise to its existence, there must exist some bad side to it. And that's where the system Kunugigaoko employs comes in. The draconian methods used by the school levied the heaviest punishment it could against students with general minor offenses.

Failing grades. Punishment

Violence against its top students even if they're in the wrong. Punishment.

Failure to devote every waking moment towards school - even getting a job. Punishment.

What was the punishment?

A vile place that's known as the 3E Class. A decrepit building both under furnished and understaffed located on a mountain at the back of the school. Students of the main campus spent two years studying in fear of being sent to that place. A place where rumors said that the vilest students were sent and friendships died because of the humiliation of failure. Quite the motivation isn't it?

Changes came though, as they always do. The 3E class of 2016 seemed to take on all the odds as they struggled to place themselves at the top. To show that they were not to be pitied and spat on. To show that even if they were in the worst place possible, they were able to rise up. And like all wrenches in the plan of a regime, acceptance of that fact spread through the main campus.

Others didn't like that, however. They saw it as a disturbance in what was otherwise a utopia and so more rumors spread. Because even though Kunugigaoko was a prestigious place of learning and logic. Fear of failure was still a strong lesson implanted in its students and a new lesson was imprinted.

When the E-Class students succeed, we, the main students

We, the ones who have struggled to have our accomplishments acknowledged

We, the ones who have made the main campus the place it is

Fail

Preying on the fear of failure helped set things in motion to have 3E stay at the bottom. With the graduation of the class of 2016, the class of 2017 decided that they would not fail. The new virtuosos weren't as good as the old ones but that didn't matter. They just needed to be better than the E class. Chairman Asano resigned and with his leave, a large power vacuum was left behind. That was okay though because his ideology would live on with a new motto.

The E class is at fault

Our new council is inadequate. The E-class did it

The new chairman is not as good as the old one. The E-class did it.

'Such a troublesome school' Karasuma let out a sigh of resignation as he walked down the empty hall towards the chairman's office.

He was honestly annoyed at the deja vu of the situation. It seemed like he went back in time to the first day he was here speaking to the frightening man known as Asano Gakuho. Except for this time, he wasn't accompanied by his fellow government co-workers. His eyes twitched at the sound of snickering behind him. Honestly, the nerve of some people.

"If you are not going to contribute to this meeting, I advise the both of you to go back now" The emotionless voice of the man only seemed to elevate their snickering.

"Loosen up Tadaomi!" A beautiful blonde lady jogged up to his left side. How she did that in five-inch stiletto heels, Karasuma refused to know. "You're going to scare the guy with how stiff you are'

A silly and otherwise disturbing laugh came from his right along with the sound of slithering noises. Karasuma also refused to acknowledge the thing next to him.

"Of course you'd know how stiff he- Nyu!"

"Shut up you damn uncooked calamari dish"

"How mean Bitch-sensei! I'm a fellow colleagu- Nyu! Stop trying to stab me!"

It was unnoticeable but Karasuma gait sped up as he tried to get away from the bickering pair, their voices echoing around the entire hall. With each step, he got closer and closer to the oppressing atmosphere exuding from the chairman's office.

'Let's get this over with' Karasuma internally groaned as he opened the door to come face to face with Soeki Nezumi.

The man rose to power in the scramble that came after Chairman Asano resigned and exuded an aura just like the frightful man. However, Karasuma couldn't help the way his muscles relaxed around the man.

Because no matter what kind of aura he had, in the chair where Asano Gakuho once sat and ruled, Nezumi was nothing but a jester.

Summers in Japan were terrible. It was hot, humid and the dry air was suffocating. With it came fatigue and lethargy that took hold of many. Kobayashi Reiji was one of those many who took to the heat. Even with the fans blasting air into the tiny flower shop, Reiji felt like his skin would melt off at any time. He was manning the cash register at his aunt's shop, dull green eyes lazily browsing a gardening magazine in boredom. If the beach wasn't so far and the heat wasn't so stifling that day, Reiji probably would've taken a trip. The raven-haired paused at this thoughts and grimaced at all the work that would have to be done for preparation. He decided that he'd withstand the heat after all.

"Reiji?" The boy in question turned to his aunt, Tsu Mizushima, who peeked her head out of the storage room "Can you grab some money from my purse and go to the convenience store pass the park for some popsicles?"

Reiji groaned at the thought of moving but complied anyway "Sure Auntie, any particular flavor?"

"None in particular!" She shouted as she was back in the room counting stock. "Stay safe!"

Shoving the money in his back pocket and some sneakers on his feet, Reiji walked out the door sending back a lazy apology to the person he brushed passed. He was in no particular hurry to expend his energy running towards the store - the last thing he needed was for him to pass out in the heat. It took a while for him to get there and he nearly groaned at the feeling of deliciously cold air conditioned wind circulating through the shop. Heading straight to the freezer section, Reiji grabbed three boxes of popsicles and one box of ice cream before he noticed a girl with a blonde ponytail staring at him and then to something in her hand.

"Uh...can I help you?" He raised a brow at the girl who flushed at the attention.

"Ah yes, can you tell me if there is anything of better quality here?" He furrowed his brows at her tone. Did it seem distinctly formal? He didn't know how to describe it but there was the undertone of something snobby in there.

He turned his eyes to the boxed dinner she held in her hand, then back to her face expecting her to suddenly grin and say she was kidding.

"I don't think so" Reiji shrugged before setting back his items into the freezer and grabbing new ones in case they started melting already "People don't usually look for quality when they come to a convenience store"

If possible the girl seemed to flush even more at his statement before setting her hand back down at her side, the boxed dinner hanging sadly from it. "Ah sorry about that"

"It's nothing really" Reiji shrugged again "If you're into nutritional value and all that just look at the information on the back of the box, that should help"

"Thank you …" She paused, dark blue eyes scrutinizing him a bit.

"Kobayashi Reiji" He offered to her.

"Thank you Kobayashi-san" She gave a small to him "I'm Oshiro Satomi"

That seemed to be the end of their conversation as they went to get their items checked out. Reiji was surprised though when she hesitated outside the store and bid him goodbye. The walk back home would have been uneventful if he didn't get surprised by a bark that erupted from in front him. Looking down, the raven-haired found a Siberian Husky sitting on the sidewalk, its tail wagging hard and tongue out. Reiji blinked before eyeing the park across from him filled with noise - he scrunched his nose. Its owner was probably looking for him.

"Hey there…" Reiji refrained from trying to guess its gender as he squatted down "What are you doing here?"

The puppy scooted closer and sniffed at the plastic in his hand.

"Oh, you want a popsicle?"

A bark

"Can you even eat this stuff"

Another bark

"Are you sure?"

An exasperated bark

Reiji was starting to think the heat was getting to him if he was having a conversation with a dog. He was just about to stand up and go on his merry way when a voice shouted in his general direction.

"Daiki! There you are" A girl with fair skin bounded over to them, her hands waving in the air in excitement. "Thank you for finding him, mister!"

"Ah, no problem" Reiji was caught off guard by the girl's energy and quickly came to the conclusion that he should leave before any more interference came his way.

"The name's Tsutsui Yukiji! It's nice to meet ya" She grinned as she scattered his plans for a retreat. Reiji couldn't understand why this girl was so...active in this heat.

"Reiji"

"Well then no last name Reiji, thanks again to finding Daiki here!" She scooped up the puppy into her arms and playfully raised its paws towards him "Say thank you Daiki!"

The dog barked happily, its tail setting a new world record with how fast the tail was wagging. Reiji smiled before hesitantly petting Daiki's head, to the happiness of the puppy. "You're welcome"

"Ah!" Tsutsui jolted in alarm and hurriedly set down the puppy. "We have to go now! See you around no last name-san!"

Reiji looked at the girl as she disappeared towards the other side of the park, the puppy yipping and yapping happily at her heels. He sighed again and then stared at his plastic. He should really get back to the shop so that this thing wouldn't melt.

Kaviya glanced at the raven-haired boy that stepped out of the place before opening the door to Flower Shop ツ and eyed the different colours that burst into her eyes. While there was a humid air to the place, the different pots of flowers gave the imagination that she was in a field somewhere with the wind blowing through her hair. She could practically see her black hair flowing backward, flower petals mixing with blue ink tint her locks seemed to have.

"Can I help you?" A warm voice called her over and Kaviya turned her eyes to the lady who was looking at her with a kind smile.

"Yes, do you have white camellias?" She walked up to the counter, glancing around at the different bouquets that adorned both tables and shelves.

"I do!" The woman smiled before turning to a room in the back "Would you like single one or a bouquet?"

"A bouquet would be fine." She eyed the row of convolvulus that was displayed on the windows.

"Here you go!" The corsage of beautifully wrapped white camellias was gently placed on the counter as the lady entered the price into the cash register. "That will be...¥ 6264.50"

As she exchanged the right amount, Kaviya carefully grabbed the bouquet and prepared to leave.

"Whoever's getting that bouquet is one lucky person if you're choosing flowers with those meanings" The lady gave her a heartwarming smile.

Kaviya felt her heart ache as she smiled back at the lady and left.

Finally done! I was going to post this earlier but then my brain was like Hey! Let's add more! That'll be fun.

I hope you guys enjoy this first part introduction. I tried to give as much coverage as I could while making it as natural as possible. Feedback would be very much appreciated. I plan to have the next chapter by Friday-Saturday...ish.

A lot of research went into what was only an introductory chapter. For example:

-How hot are Japanese summers?

-When are the Japanese summer months

-Can a dog eat popsicles

-What's a synonym for bouquet and educated?

-What is the language of flowers

-What the symbol for yen

-Why the fuck is the Japanese currency symbol the same as the Chinese symbol

-How do you say pest in Romanji

and finally

-Holy shit, how the fuck do you refer to a person with black hair?! Is it brunette? It's not? Wait! It is?

PrincessFairyTale5: Thanks again for the list! Unfortunately, Kai does not have a last name! That's just how they are. Are we having a competition to see who posts first? Cause I can guarantee….actually I can't guarantee

Lol, I have no idea what lame shit I was doing! XD Flower Shop ツ
