Chapter 1: Juvenile Hall?
The ticking of the clock made all of the students move around in their seats. Finally it was the last day of school and the summer waited. The teacher tapped the pen on the desk irritably. She was waiting for the students to rush out of those large doors, into the outside. A girl with reddish brown hair glanced out the window and sighed.
'I can't take this suspense! It's the last day dang nabbit!'
Finally as if it stalled a loud ringing echoed throughout the classroom. Everyone ran out of their seats and to the door. The girl tried to push through, but gasped as she felt someone elbow her in the chest. She fell over dizzily bumping into a boy with white hair. Her books dropped from her arms and onto the floor. For a moment the boy looked confused. He stopped and bent over to pick up her black notebook.
"Yo, are you alright?" he asked calmly handing her the book. The girl snatched it away blushing and brushed her skirt off.
"Um...yeah I'm fine. Thanks for helping."
The white haired boy just shrugged and walked away with his hands in his pockets. He still looked confused after he left through the doorway. The girl followed slowly behind him. The hallway was packed with girl's crowding around a boy with purplish hair. She knew him to be Yuki Sohma. All the girls in her class talked about him, saying how adorable he looked, she had no clue why he was such a big deal. I mean he's just a boy right? She felt someone slap her really hard on the back and a loud pitched voice.
"Hey Misuru!" It was her friend Suzume. Today her face was more cheerful then most days as she had this serene smile planted on her face. Misuru rubbed the spot where Suzume slapped her.
"Why do you always have to do that Suzume!"
"Oh c'mon Misuru! Today is the last day! We are no longer sophomores! Second year of high school here we come!" Suzume cheered.
"So why are so ecstatic today? Did Kei ask you out?"
Suzume smiled and skipped in front of Misuru. Misuru stared at her friend sweat dropping. She really was acting strange.
"Maybe he did and maybe he didn't" Suzume sang.
"Just tell me already! You are getting me sick!" Suzume danced around Misuru joyfully poking her in the back. Misuru grabbed her friend by the pony tail and told her to settle down.
"Well, Misuru what burst your bubble?" Suzume pouted "I'm allowed to be cheerful when I want to."
"You are being annoying Suzume, not cheerful. Anyway what the heck happened between you and Kei?"
"You really want to know?" Suzume teased.
"Of course! That's what I've been asking you for five minutes already!"
"Kei asked me yesterday if I'd like to go with him to the festival of fools." Suzume explained.
"And...?" Misuru continued
"I said yes. So now I actually get to go with the festival with the cutest guy in our class!" Suzume replied happily.
"Sorry, but Kei isn't the cutest guy in our class." Misuru said blushing.
"Oh my god Misuru! Don't tell me you are still going on about Hatsuharu?"
"Suzume you know how much I like him. It's not my fault he is so adorable!" Misuru blushed "just before he helped me pick up my books."
"Misuru you have a 9 out of a 1000 chance with Haru. Why don't you give up? He hardly talks to anyone, but his cousin Momiji...he's just one small chatterbox!"
"Trust me somehow Suzume. I'll never give up. See now those Yuki fan girls should be the ones to give up." Misuru said loudly as they passed the group of girls. One of the girls scowled and turned her head the other way. The one named Minami went up to Misuru with a determined look.
"What did you say? What did you say about our beloved prince?"
"Did I say anything about Yuki, Suzume?" Misuru asked her friend.
"No of course not. Why would we ever talk about your beloved Yuki?" Minami glared at the two girls.
"If you were then, you have no right to." Minami replied
"Yeah the prince is ours." One of the other members chorused.
"Sure he is." Suzume said sarcastically.
The group of Yuki fan girls walked away and just when they turned to corner, Misuru started to laugh. Suzume joined in.
"I can't believe them. Yuki would never give them the time of day!" Misuru sniggered.
"Lately they have been acting weirder lately haven't you noticed?" Suzume asked
"Duh, it's because of that girl Tohru Honda that makes them jealous."
"I heard from a couple of people that she's living there at Yuki's house. Gossip I'm sure"
"Actually it's true. I heard her two friends Arisa and Saki talk about it the other day near the teachers lounge. I was surprised too. If the Yuki fan club found out. Hell for poor Tohru Honda."
"Tohru is really nice. I've talked to her before in the lunchroom."
"When was that Suzume?"
"Not so long ago. She is so lucky! She also hangs out with Yuki's cousin Kyou. He is so dreamy." Suzume swooned and Misuru whacked her on the back of the head.
"Hello you have KEI now I presume." Misuru remarked
"He didn't really ask me out you know." Suzume stated.
"Yeah but he always seemed interested in you Suzume."
"I guess he always has since middle school."
MISURU'S POV
I can't stand those fan club girls. Who do they think they are? Suzume and I talked for a while before I headed home. My house is not so far away from the school. Really all I have to do is walk three blocks and I'm there. As I headed out of the doors, I spotted Momiji and Haru waiting for someone at the edge of the parking lot. I felt like an idiot standing there staring at them. I knew that my face was turning a bright shade of red once Momiji noticed me.
"Hallo Misuru-chan." Momiji waved.
"Oh hello Momiji-kun." I replied. "What are you doing this summer?"
"I'm going to Germany with my Papa!" He smiled at me. Momiji made me laugh.
"Well, that sounds exciting." A car stopped in front of the two and Momiji ran off. Haru opened the door and went into the car as well and before they left Momiji said goodbye.
"See you soon Misuru-kun Tsube!" (An: Tsube in German means 'later')
Haru was right there in front of me. I was so scared to tell him that I loved him at that moment. Deep inside I knew that those three words haunted me. I feared to say them, and yet I have no regrets. Later, all of this will come up in ashes. What I know might be true.
Shigure busily walked into the house with a package under his arm. He had just visited Hatori at the estate which occurred with seeing Akito as well. (AN: this is no longer Misuru's POV. Just to let you know) Tohru was busy scrubbing a large soda stain from the living room rug, Yuki was busy helping with the dishes in the kitchen and kyou was um...I'm not exactly sure.
"Tohru what happened to my precious rug?" Shigure exclaimed as he placed the package on the nearby table and sat down to read the evening newspaper.
"Uh...Kyou-kun accidentally split soda. Gomen if the rug is ruined Shigure-san." Tohru apologized.
"Oh nonsense Tohru-kun. I can get a new one." He laughed. Yuki walked into the room with a dish rag in his hands and a soap bottle. Tohru stood up and wiped the water from her forehead. She did a victory stance then headed for the bathrooms.
"So where are you going to get this new rug?" Yuki asked as Tohru fled from the room. Shigure stood there for a moment and thought. It was awkward but he finally found his solution.
"I have no clue. I'll ask around for a rug store. I'm sure Haa-san knows where one is." Shigure laughed.
It was dark out when Hatori had finally gotten to Haru's house and dropped him off. Somehow it was strange. There were police cars in the driveway and out on the street pavement. When he walked through those heavy black doors his parents greeted him with an eerie smile. Now he knew something was wrong.
"Haru these officers are here to take you to juvenile hall." His mother stated.
"What the hell are you talking about Juvenile hall?" He asked
"The last couple of days, you've been out of control and the family can't take it any longer. Haru if you don't get help soon its jail."
"Still," Haru smirked "This isn't a good reason to send me to juve. What have I ever done wrong?"
"Just yesterday you were caught shoplifting from a electronics store and ammunitions store." One of the officers replied. Haru's eye twitched and his father ran over to him holding him back. Black Haru was about to emerge in all of his rage and much more.
