Chapter 1
New Boy
Kaji walked down the corridor slowly, thinking about Tateishi. Ever since they'd met he'd been infatuated with her... he didn't know if he could call it love yet but it was close.
And now... Nina had talked to him. She said that Ayu liked him too, the same way he liked her. Could it be possible? Kaji had grasped at that shred of hope that he could have a chance with Ayu Tateishi... and now her best friend told him he was right.
Ever since he had talked to Nina about it, he had felt relieved yet nervous. The main reason why he hadn't told Ayu that he liked her was the fear that she'd reject him... and now that he knew she wouldn't reject him, he would have to tell her.
Kaji wished for the perfect moment, the right moment, when the two of them were alone, just to tell her, simply and gently, that he liked her a lot and he wanted to be her boyfriend.
But every time he thought of saying it, a million butterflies rose up in his stomach and started to play baseball.
"Nina! Nina!" Ayu called, running towards her best friend. Nina turned, her short blonde locks gleaming in the sunlight. She was smiling, but she looked... guilty.
"What? What is it?" Ayu asked when she reached her. Nina shook her head. "Nothing." She replied. "How about you? Why were you yelling at me so loudly?"
Ayu leaned in excitedly, her gray eyes sparkling. "There's a new boy in class!" she whispered happily. "He's sooo smart. And he plays soccer too! And... he's so cute!" That last word came out as a squeak.
Nina laughed, and then grew serious. "Does this mean you have completely forgotten about Kaji?" she demanded. Ayu stopped laughing. Her friend looked very serious, almost mad. "Nina, you know I wouldn't..." but Nina was laughing at her. She laughed along. "Very funny. You almost got me there."
"But honestly, Nina, you should see him! He's really, really handsome. He's got sandy-brown hair, and dreamy hazel eyes... And he's from America, he says. He even has a funny accent!" Ayu chattered on and on. This wasn't like her. Usually Ayu was shy and quiet about boys.
"Okay, okay!" Nina said. "I give in. I'll go see him with you. But first, what's his name?"
Ayu smiled. "He's from America, so it's a different kind of name. His full name is Mark Anderson."
Nina's eyes grew wide. "Mark... Anderson?" she whispered. "Yes, yes! Oh, even his name sounds dreamy already!" Ayu laughed. But Nina grabbed her arm, her face serious.
"Ayu, Mark Anderson is a boy from..."
"America! I told you." Ayu replied.
"No, Mark is from... the Magic Kingdom!" Nina said.
Kaji stopped at his locker and took out a few books. Suddenly he heard a locker bang right beside his. But no one owned the locker next to his! It was reserved for new students!
Kaji turned toward the new boy. He had light brown hair and hazel eyes, and he saw that Kaji was looking at him. The boy smiled. "Hi! I'm Mark Anderson, a new student here. I'm from America... that's why my name is weird and my accent is funny."
Kaji smiled back and shook Mark's hand. "You're new here?" he asked. Mark nodded. "A lady at the office gave me a pile of books and this locker key and told me to ask others about the school." He said.
"Do you want me to help you?" Kaji asked. "I can show you the classrooms, and the tennis courts, and you can meet my friends." Mark smiled, flashing perfect, sparkling white teeth. "Arigato! I'd like that very much! Oh, and by the way... let's be friends!" Kaji nodded.
"Nina! Are you sure? Are you sure it's his name? And that he has sandy brown hair and hazel eyes??" Ayu shouted frantically, and Nina nodded.
"Does he do magic? Good magic?" Nina nodded again. "Nina, is he your friend? Or what?" This time Nina didn't nod. She blushed, laughed and looked away.
"Well... actually, Ayu, I used to have a crush on him." She turned red as she listened to her friend laugh.
"I'm sorry, Nina. I don't blame you! He's sooo handsome. Quick! Introduce us! I'm sure you two remember each other. It'll give me an advantage!" Ayu said, and then she laughed. "I guess I'm being foolish, huh?" she asked. Nina laughed.
"...and this is our classroom. I'm glad you're in the same class as me! I'll be able to help you more and cover up for you if you make any mistakes." Kaji continued. Mark nodded, and peeked inside the classroom. Then he looked straight ahead. "Who are those two girls? That brunette looks really pretty!"
For some reason Kaji's smile disappeared when he said, "pretty". "That brunette is Ayu Tateishi, and then blond one is Nina Sakura." He mumbled. The girls approached.
"N-Nina?" Mark stuttered as he shook Sakura's hand. "It's been such a long time!" Nina said happily. Then she smiled. "This is Ayu. She's my best friend!"
"Yes, well, um, Hi!" Ayu said. Her heart was pounding furiously as those dreamy hazel eyes slowly turned and locked onto hers...
Then suddenly something twitched at the back of her mind. She tore herself away from Mark's face and saw Kaji leaving. Part of her wanted to go, part of her wanted to stay. She decided to continue talking with Mark.
But even as they talked and even if Ayu found herself staring dreamily at Mark's face all the time, she still had a nagging feeling when she thought of Kaji, walking away as though he had been rejected.
