A/N: This was randomly thought up. Kinda inspired by what I went through this morning. Sucks when you're late and the stupid bus takes ages. What on earth are the bus drivers doing?

Today was a very sucky day. From the moment she woke up and realized she was one hour late for her meeting to realizing that she would not be able to enjoy the breakfast her mom had prepared for her that morning. And of all the mornings, it had to be the one in which there was French toast for breakfast, which of course was so not her favorite breakfast! Oh great, this was such a wonderful start to the day!

While walking to the bus-stop, she took out her phone, intending to listen to some relaxing music, but of course she had forgotten to charge her phone last night and there was only ten percent of the battery left. That was the moment where her bus just zoomed past her, totally ignoring the poor little girl who was already late and could not afford to spare another moment.

Another half hour later, she finally got onto the bus and stood sullenly at one corner. Internally, she was cursing everyone on the bus, wondering how they had all gotten a seat, except for her. A few stops later, the bus was fuller than before and she felt so stifled standing near so many people.

Just then, the bus turned sharply and everyone standing grabbed onto something to steady themselves. As luck would have it, Chihiro had been zoning out and her reaction was not fast enough to grab onto the bar in front of her. Following the momentum of the bus, she swayed and crashed right into someone standing to her right.

"Ouch! Oh, shit! I'm so sorry! Are you okay? I didn't injure you or anything did I?" she hurriedly questioned the boy she had hit. She ran a string of curses through her mind, thinking that the gods hated her today. Then she realized that the boy was looking at her strangely, a rather cute boy. She blushed a deep red, embarrassed. She just wanted to jump out of the bus and into the oncoming traffic. Never before had she been so thoroughly humiliated. Hanging her head in despair and shame, she shuffled back into her original position, avoiding all eye-contact with the boy.

"Bad day, huh?" Her head whipped up of its own accord and she met the sympathetic green gaze of the boy who had spoken. Flushing in shame yet again, she gave a slight nod and a gusty sigh. Chihiro could feel the beginnings of a major migraine.

"Well, don't let it get you down," he said kindly. Then he added, "Are you from my school?" Chihiro glanced up at him, slightly bewildered at his sudden question. Then she caught sight of her familiar school crest emblazoned on the front of his sweater. "Oh... uh, yeah."

"No wonder. You looked familiar. Your brown hair really stands out from the crowd. My name's Haku, by the way." She did a double take. How on earth had she never noticed such a good-looking guy in her school before?

The bus suddenly jerked to a stop. He gave her a friendly smirk. "This is my stop. So, I guess I'll see you in school... Chihiro." He patted her head gently before alighting from the bus. She turned red at his sweet gesture. Wait... how on earth had he known her name?

The door of the bus began to close, the bus rumbling to life again. Just as the bus was pulling out of the bus-stop, she suddenly caught sight of him again. That good-looking boy. Haku. Apparently, he had seen her too, for he gave a beautiful, lopsided smile that made her heart flop in her chest.

Maybe the day wouldn't be so bad after all.
