I feel so bad! I completely forgot about this fanfic! I was watching a new anime, Black Butler, and totally forgot about this! So sorry! And, I've decided that they will be in high school. Still 14, but in high school. It makes everything easier.

Sapphire's POV:

Completely forgetting about Nia's explosion, I raced to school. I skidded to a stop in front of the doors and ripped them open. Or tried to. Apparently they lock the doors after school starts. Great. I racked my brain for a way to get in. After a few minutes I grinned. The roof!

There was a door on the roof that led into school. I don't know if they locked it, but it was worth a shot. It took me a while to find the latter, but eventually I did. It was on the edge of the school, hidden in a corner. Smiling, I began my climb.

I quickly reached the edge of the roof, pulled myself up, and froze. There looking out into the distance, was an orange head of hair. And its name is Kyo Sohma. Really! I think my luck was running out. What is with me running into the Sohmas all the time! Well… only three, but still!

I took a deep breath, debating whether or not I should keep going. My decision was made for me.

"Hey! What are you doing up here?!" I had amazing luck didn't I? I looked up and was met with crimson eyes. Damn… time for the innocent little girl act.

I willed a blush to my cheeks. "Oh… I-I'm sorry. I was late for school… I needed to drop off my little sister. The front doors locked so…" I hauled myself onto the roof and shuffled my feet.

Kyo paused and rubbed the back of his head. "Oh, yeah, um… there's a door up here." He walked quickly over to the door, and opened it. I nodded my thanks to him before going inside. Normally I wouldn't care about school; I had only attended like, 3 times this month.

But… I needed to check up on the other Sohmas. I hadn't seen them in a while. I hadn't even really interacted with them much. They were the only connection to who I was. It was like they were my lifeline. The only people who could understand the curse….And I couldn't even work up the courage to talk to any of them. Pathetic.

I wasn't that late. Maybe fifteen minutes. I made my way to my homeroom, standing outside the door for a moment. I took a deep breath, fully aware that this was going to draw attention to me. I hated being the center of attention. Usually I would get there early and take my seat in the back corner, and I would stay unnoticed.

I twisted the door handle and stepped into the room. All heads were drawn to me, and the whispers started.

"Who's she?"

"Is she new?"

"Look at her eyes…" I winced at that. Nia often scolded me because when I was overly nervous or embarrassed, my eyes would go emotionless.

The teacher looked at me with cold eyes. "Nice of you to join us for once, Mrs. Sapphire. I glared at her.

"You're lucky I found time in my busy schedule to grace you with my presence." I smirked. The teacher sighed in annoyance and muttered,

"Take a seat." There was only one seat available. And that seat was next to the one and only, you guessed it, Hiro Sohma. Have I ever mentioned that I have the best luck?
