Fuu was getting ready for her first day of high school, and her last year in high school. It had been about four years since she had last been to Cephiro, and it all seemed like a dream now.

She was still in contact with Umi and Hikaru, but the three had drifted apart because of school and other activities. Fuu was the top of her class and was going to graduate with top honors and go on to a fancy college. But she also felt as if she had slipped into a lonely place since she left Cephiro. Having nothing but good grades was starting to get to her, and yet she remained alone because she just didn't know what else to do.

At least she had her cousin Masako. Masako was always there for Fuu, wether Fuu wanted her to be or not. Although she was a bit controlling about Fuu's life, Fuu never said a word. It's not like Fuu always did was Masako told her to do.

She put on her green school jacket and smoothed out her grey skirt. Masako came in and smiled.

"You look nice, but you should fix the part in your hair." Masako said with a smile.

"It looks straight to me." Fuu replied as she tilted her head.

Masako laughed and grabbed a comb, "I'll fix it."

"I can do it," Fuu replied.

"No that's ok," Masako replied as she combed Fuu's hair down in front of her face. She then placed the combed at the back of Fuu's head and ran it forward. "Careful not to pull," Fuu said with a smile.

Masako laughed and finished fixing Fuu's part.

"There we go, perfect," Masako said as she flipped her own straight shoulder length blonde hair over her shoulder.
Fuu envied her slightly, Masako didn't have to wear glasses, her green eyes were perfect.

"Well come on, we don't want to be late on the first day of school." Masako said as she practically skipped out of the room.

Fuu sighed and fallowed her cousin, without skipping.


Once at school Fuu took a seat and put her head down on her desk.

"You miss me that much?" Said a very familiar voice.

"No way," Fuu said before even lifting her head from the table.

Her eyes moved upward and she turned her head to see Ferio sitting in the desk next to her.

"What are you doing here?" Fuu said as her eyes began to fill with warm tears.

He smiled and adjusted his black tie, but before he could reply Masako cut in.

"You're Ferio? The boy that my Fuu is always crying over?" Masako said in an angry tone.

Ferio didn't know weather to nod or not.

"You did something to her, and she's been depressed and sad ever since." Masako said. "You should pay for what you did to her."

"It's not like that," Fuu said softly.

"Maybe it is in a way, I'm sorry it took me so long to find you." Ferio said as he reached for Fuu's hand.

Fuu blushed and a smile slowly crept over her face.

Masako quietly took her seat on the other side of Fuu, but kept a close eye on Ferio until the next class. She looked at her schedule and was upset to see home room was the only class they had together.

On her way out of the class room Masako ran into Ferio, "stay away from her." She said sternly.

Ferio was a little surprised, Fuu had one over protective cousin. Ferio noted that his had history class with Masako and algebra 1 with Fuu. Mostly he couldn't wait for school to be over so he could explain to Fuu how and why he was here. He couldn't get the big grin off his face, seeing Fuu had made his day.


History class came too soon in Ferio opinion. He slunk to the back of the class room and made himself as small as possible. When he looked up from his note book and pen, he realized Masako was sitting next to him.

"I want to know who you are and why you're here." Masako demanded with a stern look on her face.

"I'm from Cephiro and I've come to be with Fuu-chan." Ferio replied.

Masako laughed and Ferio smiled. "Look you jerk, you tell me where you're from right NOW."

Ferio gulped and decided to make something up really quickly. "China." He replied. "I'm from China." He nodded quickly. "Yeah I was born there, lived there, ate there, and breathed there too."

"Fine then. Whatever." Masako replied as she folded her arms over her chest.

Ferio shrugged and turned his attention to the teacher who had just come into the room.


Algebra 1 was his last class of the day, and the only class he had with Fuu. He wasn't late to this class. He had made sure he knew where it was. He slide in next to Fuu and tapped her shoulder.

"Ferio," Fuu said with a smile. "It is good to see you again."

Ferio took her hand and kissed it. "It's good to see you too."

"Walk home with me today," Fuu said.

"Sure!" Ferio said and almost jumped from his seat. "I uh... Hope I didn't sound to excited..."

"Well, you did. But it is to be expected, we have not seen each other for quit some time now." Fuu replied as she took out her math book.

Ferio watched Fuu all throughout the class, 'I'm gonna have to take summer school for this...' He said to himself. Fuu caught herself sneaking glances at Ferio, but tried hard not to stare, she would never want to get a bad grade.


Masako mean while sat in her Bio class wondering about Ferio. She had a funny feeling about it. He was lying about something. And he had done something horrible to her cousin, leaving her a different person. She always wondered if Ferio had raped her or maybe just said terrible things to her. But Fuu would always deny any wrong doing on Ferio's part. And now that he was in town, she was going to have to watch him like a hawk.

Ferio was relieved when the last bell rang, he quickly gathered his things. Fuu shoved her books and pen into her book bag, slung it over her shoulder, and then grabbed Ferio's hand. She pulled him down the hall towards the exit.

"Slow down!" Ferio yelped.

Fuu laughed softly and slowed her pace through the maze of people that filled the halls. Fuu obviously couldn't wait to get out side either. As the two burst out into the cool crisp fall air, Masako spotted them.

"Come on Fuu-chan," Masako said as she reached for Fuu's hand, the one holding Ferio's.

Fuu pulled her and Ferio's hands behind her back. "No." Fuu said in a abnormally strong tone.

Masako looked hurt and surprised at he same time. "Fuu, stop acting so childish." Masako said as she narrowed her eyes.

"Ferio is walking home with use." Fuu announced.

"I didn't say he could," Masako replied.

"I don't need to ask," Fuu snapped.

Ferio just stood there holding Fuu's hand and looking at her face. Fuu suddenly jerked Ferio forward and started walking.

"Don't be so harsh," Ferio warned.

"I'll try," Fuu replied.

The continued walking, not waiting up for Masako. She did however catch up on her own. Masako was silent, but cast quit a chilling atmosphere with her attitude.

Ferio wanted Masako to go away. He really desperately wanted to kiss Fuu. Something that made him crazy, he just had to kiss her. But he didn't feel right doing it in front of Masako.

"This is my house," Fuu said as she stopped in front of her large black gate.

"Wow, why the big scary gate?" Ferio asked as he scratched his head.

"To keep perverts like you out," Masako replied.

Fuu's head snapped around. "Please Masako, be nice."

Masako only switched her book bag to her other shoulder.

"I should get home, I have to finish getting things in order at my place." Ferio replied.

"Alright," Fuu replied. "Call me tonight though." Fuu said as she handed her number to Ferio.

Ferio smiled and nodded. Fuu blushed as she watched Ferio walk off, she had to try hard not to let out a long dreamy sigh.

"Fuu, we need to talk." Masako said as she took Fuu's hand.

"About what?" Fuu inquired.

"I don't want you to see Ferio any more. And we will talk of this no further." Masako replied.

"You don't know him," Fuu said angrily. "You have no right to tell me I can't see him."

"You don't know him either." Masako replied.

"Yes I do, I met him at Tokyo Tower several times and we talked quit a bit. I truly enjoy his company and ask that you peruse this no farther." Fuu said before she slipped through the gate and closed it behind her. "Good day Masako," Fuu said as she bowed and went up her drive way.
