Note: Thanks to the one person who actually reviewed my very first fanfic.
It meant a lot to me and that was what pushed me to go on writing,
although I had many second thoughts. I wanted this fanfic to solely about
Haruka but then, since that person asked to, the other Sailor Scouts will
appear… You'll just have to wait and see… Please keep reading if you will…
Disclaimer: The characters don't belong to me, and they never will. But this story is mine and nobody can change that fact. This is my own fanfic so it doesn't have anything to do with the original stories by the original authors.

"You can open your eyes now."
Haruka opened her eyes tentatively, although she knew that she was already at Platform Nine and Three Quarters for the background sound was different. In fact, there was the train, 'Hogwarts Express' that would be bringing her closer to Hogwarts, making her closer to achieving her goal. She smiled to herself. Only then did she notice the amusement on Harry's face. She knew that Harry found her amusing but there was nothing she could do about it except to smile at Harry.
"Glad to see that we made it here in one piece," said Haruka while straightening herself and tried to glare at Harry but it was all in vain.
Harry just laughed of the pathetic attempt of Haruka to look anything but cool and collected.
"Come on Haruka," said Harry, making sure that he made no physical contact with Haruka, afraid that something weird might happen again. "We had better hurry up before we are left behind."
Harry and Haruka started to walk towards the train but before they had barely stepped up on the train after handing off their luggage that they heard a few people calling Harry's name.
"Harry! HARRY!!!"
Harry and Haruka turned around and Haruka found herself looking at a red haired boy with freckles and a girl with long brown hair.
"Hey Ron, Hermione," said Harry when Ron and Hermione had hurried over to them.
"We thought that you weren't coming or something," said Ron. "How are the Dursleys treating you nowadays? Come on now. We had better get to our coach."
"Anywhere near Malfoy?" asked Harry while walking beside Ron, leaving Haruka and Hermione walking in silence behind them.
"The coast is clear. The mega meany Malfoy is all the way at the other end with this faithful servants, Crabbe and Goyle."
"Harry! You are so rude!" exclaimed Hermione, startling Harry while shooting glances at Haruka who was walking next to her. *How could Harry do this to me? Leaving me in the presence of one of the best looking guy she had ever set her eyes on and not bothering to even introduce us. I could say something but I don't really trust myself to speak to someone who looks like THAT.*
"What now?" asked Harry in surprise, turning around to meet Hermione's eyes which was looking everywhere except at Haruka who was standing so close to her. "What have I done now?"
Haruka just grinned a knowing grin at Hermione, causing Hermione to blush for Haruka knew that Hermione's outburst at Harry definitely had something to do with a certain somebody who had purposely walked very near to her without saying a word but making her realize her presence there.
*How long has it been since I had that kind of effect on a girl? Clearly it has been a long time, for I know that I enjoy doing this too much to give it up full time.*
Hermione again looked away from Haruka's perfectly sculptured face and looked at Harry. "You haven't introduced your friend here."
"Oh yeah," said Harry, laughing at his own forgetfulness. "Why'd you want to know?" Harry couldn't resist from teasing Hermione about her question, since Hermione usually had all the answers she needed in the books she read. "Can't you find the answer in a book?"
"HARRY! It's just plain rude!" Hermione was angered with Harry attempt of getting at her. She was angrier with herself for falling for such a trap.
"Come on," said Ron while trying to hide his smile form creeping upon his face. He motioned them all towards the door that he held open. "Get in here first. I wouldn't want to stand up for too long in a moving train. I get woozy."
They went in and Haruka purposely sat herself beside Harry and in front of Hermione. Hermione seemed to be so uncomfortable with the sitting but she couldn't get out of the situation for everyone else had already sat down.
*Why is he doing this to me? I'm sure he knows the effects he has on me. This is so embarrassing!* thought Hermione to herself.
*It's normal, it's absolutely normal… Hermione is a girl, Haruka would like an attractive girl like Hermione. But if it's normal, why am I feeling jealous with the attention that Haruka is paying at Hermione? Why does he have to sit so close to me?* thought Harry.
"This is Haruka Tenoh," said Harry trying to hide the quivering in his voice. *Calm down. Breath. BREATH! He's a guy! You're a guy! Shake out of it Harry!* "He's from Japan."
Haruka reached out to shake Hermione's hand and gave her a reassuring smile causing Hermione to relax while smiling timidly at Haruka. "I presume you're Hermione. You can't be Ron can you?"
Hermione laughed, relaxing and finally meeting Haruka's eyes. "Hermione Granger." She answered of softly that it was barely above a whisper. *His hands are so soft. Oh my, his eyes are so beautiful.*
"Nice to meet you Hermione Granger," Haruka said while holding onto Hermione's hand a little while longer than necessary, causing Hermione's blush to deepen even more.
"Ron Weasley," said Ron with a grin.
Haruka released Hermione's hand and Hermione immediately wished that Haruka hadn't done that. She wanted to have Haruka's hand in hers, perhaps even around her…
*What is happening to me? Where DID that thought come from? I'm supposed to be rational! I don't even know this guy. He might even be an egomaniac with an ego bigger than Malfoy's…*
"Nice to meet you Haruka," said Ron, pumping Haruka's hand. He might be a little bit shorter than Haruka but he had filled out and was currently quite muscular.
"Same here," said Haruka while grinning at Ron's enthusiasm. *A Boy-Who- Lived, a beautiful girl and a muscular redhead. How did they find each other as friends?*
There was a slow knock at the door and Ron smiled even wider. "That must be the lunch trolley. Yum! I'm hungry!"
"Ron, do you even think of anything other that your stomach?" asked Hermione with mock disgust.
Before any of them had a chance to get out of their seat to get to the lunch trolley, the door opened to reveal a girl dressed with a long white gown, who made her look like an angel with aqua-coloured hair. They stared at her, captivated with her raw beauty although she was without makeup.
"Michiru?"
Note: Like it so far? Wanna know Michiru's part in this? Wanna know do they eventually find out about the truth of Haruka's gender? Review… And maybe I'll contemplate about doing Chapter Three in the near future… Like in the next few days… Please review and comment about it… I would really like to know what do you think about it…
