Disclaimer: Masami Tsuda. Yes. She owns it T.T
----------------------------------------------
Perfection. That's all she strived for. To be perfect. To be the center of her parent's attention, the epitome of virtue. The top of her class.
Deep mahogany eyes skimmed over her chosen book of study once more before sloppily plopping her head onto the soft pillow below. Her sisters' snores could lightly be heard around the room, reaching loud volumes every so often.
She sighed, a low, shaky sigh before drowning into her thoughts.
She had to be better. Better than him. Her rival. Her source of ultimate hatred. She had to be better than him.
Who?
Arima.
Who exactly?
To be specific, Arima Souichirou.
The male form of perfection. The boy with a beautiful everything. Beautiful dusky, soft black hair matting over his deep raven eyes. A slim, athlete body covered with pale, newborn skin. He had practically every girl swooning over him, squealing and giggling when he glanced their way. He was smart too, answering every question the teachers threw his way with ease. He had a gentle, tender voice making girls melt before him when he would always politely help them with their academic oriented problems. He was at the top of the class.
But wait, wasn't she? Wasn't she at the top of her class, the epitome of virtue and perfection?
A quiet, evil snicker could be heard in the silent room.
Yes, it's true. Miyazawa Yukino was no longer perfect.
"Yes, tomorrow Arima, tomorrow will be the worst day of your life." She giggled menacingly, her voice only a whisper. She snuggled into the pillow, a blanket of ebony hair hanging over it. Sighing, a small, happy sigh she surrendered herself to sleep.
On she dreamed dreams of acceptance and perfection, being handed the award for the top of her class. Suffice to say, to her, her dreams were pretty good that night.
Morning arrived, the blessed warmth resonating from the sun into the transparent windows of the room that was inhabited by the three girls. A dusty light peeked into the cracks of the window blinds, illuminating Yukino's peacefully sleeping face.
A messy haired Yukino drowsily crouched up, rubbing an eye, and yawned loudly in the process.
"GOOD MORNING DEAR SISTER!!!!!!!" Her two so-called sisters (though she thought they were possessed by monsters) sang loudly, jumping all over her ecstatically.
"Nothing is going to ruin my day, so GOOD MORNING TO YOU TOO!" She bellowed, shoving them off her sending them tumbling across the wooden floor. She stumbled a couple steps, before she fully stood and trotted happily towards the bathroom.
Today would be perfect. Perfect.
"Wonder why she's so happy?" Tsukino pondered deeply.
"Probably some boooooooy," Kano teased, emphasizing the last word with a little venom, hoping their dear sister would hear them.
"Hahaha, a boy liking her? Where have you been?" Tsukino laughed boisterously, soon being joined by her sister.
"NOTHING WILL RUIN MY DAY!!!" A voice screamed annoyed, an auburn haired blur popping out of the door. The door closed with a loud slam, as the shower running could soon be heard.
Stepping out of the shower and drying herself off, she changed into her uniform. It was basic. A crisp, navy blue blazer over a white blouse tucked into her light blue plaid pleated school skirt. Fluttering ridiculously, she exited the bathroom and into the kitchen, her sisters watching her as if she was some crazed murderer in the process.
Gulping down her breakfast, she ran to school, a huge smile plastered on her face. Her family never really did find out why that girl was so blasted happy. She speedily trotted out the door before her parents could even tell her "good morning." Boy, she must be happy to learn or something. Weird child.
The ebony haired girl still had the same smile etched on her features.
Nothing could ruin this day. Oh, he would pay. He would pay dearly.
Prancing happily through the school gates, she made it to her classroom. Of course, she had no friends. She was too good for them. At least she thought so. She felt higher them all, scaling higher and higher to the living form of perfection. She was too good for them. Too smart. Too beautiful.
What about too nice? Hahaha, Yukino and the word "nice" being paired in the same sentence wasn't possible, but she wouldn't let her fellow classmates know that. Her classmates would never know her true self. The self that was insecure, imperfect, somewhat annoying, rude, falsely conceited, loud, nosy, and the list could still go on with an innumerable amount of other bad qualities. No, she would still play the never ending masquerade of her "nice girl" performance.
Making her way to her desk, she was too happy with herself and her plans of ultimate torture to notice the person coming towards her, most likely looking away as well. A hard, solid force hit her body and she landed sprawled, happily still, on the floor. Brushing herself off quickly, standing to her full, but still short height, she glared at the doer of the crime.
Deep raven eyes met bright mahogany.
Arima.

You guys know the drill, hopefully ^.~ READ AND REVIEW! 3 Yes, and it's short, but instead of making this one LONG one-shot, I decided to separate into small parts ^_^
Cruel Intentions: Okay okay, so yes, Yukino in the first part of this is made out to be some wicked witch of the West. But! I tried to make it like the anime, as you can tell, so it will kinda' follow that main story line, but some differences along the way, so I don't actually take the whole story and what not ^_^ Yukino isn't evil, just insecure with herself. That's how I viewed her in the anime. A girl who wanted attention and to be praised. She was addicted to it basically. I think with that being taken away from her, she, to herself didn't have anything left. Don't worry, she'll show her true colors near the ending ^_^ As you all know XD Yukino isn't exactly the nicest person, in my view, but she certainly does have her great qualities. So I don't want you all to think that I am trying to make Yukino some evil, wicked person out to ruin people's lives ^_^ Cause she doesn't want to do that, just to those who…get in her way XD
