Chapter One

Somewhere in the country of Japan, on the town of Tokyo, and inside the building of St. Ivalice School, exactly at the class 3-6, more than thirty students were sitting in their desks while staring at the two newcomers. There were transferred students in their class and they seemed interested.

One is a girl with long light brown hair and cerulean blue eyes while the other is a boy with short black and white hair. Both of them seemed to be acquainted.

Their teacher coughed and all attentions were paid on her. She started the introduction of the new students instead of asking them to introduce themselves since she already had a bad experience back then when there were two transferred students in the other class and they were really talkative, and I mean it, really talkative.

"Class, these are the new transferred student Fuji Syuusuke," at this point, the girl with long brown hair bowed, "And Saeki Kojirou," and the boy bowed as well. "Please befriend them," she said before asking the two transferred students to take a seat at the back, near a hyperactive redhead.

"Hoi hoi! Your name is Fuji right? Nice name!" the redhead said hyperly, "Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Kikumaru Eiji, nice meeting you," he grinned at the girl who only smiled back.

"Nice meeting you too, Kikumaru-san," Fuji replied politely.

"Ah, no need to call me Kikumaru-san, just call me Eiji," he waved his hand in dismissal.

"Ah, right," she said and sat in the sat beside Eiji that happened to be empty. "You can sit beside me," she said to Saeki who complied without saying anything, as if he didn't want to say anything at all.

"You seemed to be acquainted with him," Eiji commented.

"Ah, I believe that it is true, and there's no need to hide the fact that I'm well acquainted with him," Fuji replied, trying to speak as soft as she could so that Saeki wouldn't hear what she said.

"Well, are you two, uh, going steady?" Eiji asked out of curiosity, and by the time he had asked that, most of the boys students in that class tried to hear what the answer would be since they themselves wanted to know the answer but couldn't ask by themselves because of the distance and other reasons.

Fuji looked around and noticed that they were expecting her answer. She smiled triumphantly and answered, "Well, I couldn't say yes, and I couldn't say no either, it's up to him to make the final decision," she snickered after that, savoring the triumphant sensation she got when she saw the disappointed and strange, very strange, looks on the boys' faces.

And Eiji was no exception.

"What do you mean?" Eiji asked as he raised an eyebrow, "You mean you've asked him but he hadn't answered or he turned you down or-" he started asking some of the many possibilities but was cut off when the teacher growled at him and asked him to pay attention to the lesson and not the new students.

"Ha- hai, Ryuuzaki-sensei," he bowed at her, but when she turned her back to write on the white board while explaining the lesson again, he turned around to face Fuji again.

"Now, back to the topic, so what do you mean by that?" he asked again.

Fuji was about to answer when another growl came, but this one didn't come from their teacher, instead, it came from Saeki himself.

"Fuji, don't say anything strange about us," he warned.

"Oh, you heard that?" she asked innocently. "Well, looks like he doesn't want to talk about this, so shall we end it here?" she asked and received another growl.

"Well, I guess," Eiji looked over to Saeki who looked ready to kill anyone who stayed in one meter radius from him.

"Eto, well, I think this is quite rude to ask you such thing, but if you don't mind…" Eiji started hesitantly, afraid that he'd make his new friend hated him.

"It's okay," Fuji smiled at him, "I don't mind,"

"Hm, your name is Fuji Syuusuke, right –if I'm not mistaken-?" Eiji asked as he rubbed his nose with his right fore finger.

"Yeah, you're not mistaken, my name is, indeed, Fuji Syuusuke," she answered, not letting her smile drop from her face.

"Well, the point is… Syuusuke is a boy's name, am I wrong?" Eiji asked again. "I don't really mind you having a boy's name, I'm just… curious, if you may say so," he added hastily.

At this point, Fuji couldn't help but let out a small laughter. She was amused. No one had really bothered themselves with such trivial questions, not that she minded though. "Ah, I see, that's because my parents wanted a boy, not a girl, so when I was born and they acknowledged that I'm a girl, they gave me a boy's name nonetheless," she explained rather disturbingly long.

"Sou ka… sorry for asking such strange question," Eiji apologized as he smiled brightly.

"No problem."

And the rest of the class was just as boring as usual, except that Eiji and Fuji chatted all the time until the bell rang.

--------------------

After the class ended, almost all students rushed out of their respective classes. But some of them stayed to clean up or do something they wanted to before going home.

In class 3-6…

"Nya Fuji, I'm going to the mall with Ooishi today, do you want to tag along?" Eiji offered as he sat on the desk just in front of Fuji's seat. "Saeki-san can come along too," he added, remembering the killer look.

"Ooishi? Who's that?" Fuji asked as she looked up. She was tidying up her things before she went home, well, not really since she had an appointment with a certain someone that she loathed very much.

"He's…, well, my best friend, and he won't mind if you come along, so you should join us, because the more, the merrier," Eiji said hyperly as he started jumping around the classes and stopped at the threshold of the classroom's door.

"Ah, I see, but I'm really sorry, I've made an appointment with- a certain someone, and I wouldn't be able to cancel the plan to go," Fuji said regretfully, "I'll join you the next time though," he added.

"Oh, okay then, be sure to come along the next time we're going somewhere, okay?" Eiji said and dashed outside to the class where his friend is.

"You can go with him if you want, I'll go with Atobe alone," Saeki said.

"Oh, no, then I can't object to whatever he is going to buy, can I?" Fuji asked as she smiled, though her smile seemed maniacal, "And I won't leave you with that aristocratic bastard alone," he added.

"Is that because you cared for me or you loathed him?" Saeki asked as he put on a strange expression before bursting into a fit of laughter, "Hey, I never expected you to say such things," he managed to say between his laughter.

"And is that supposed to a flattery or what?" Fuji asked back, and they went to the student council room to look for Atobe, the certain someone.

--------------------

"Come in," Atobe said without looking away from the paperwork in his hands when he heard soft knocks on the door. He took a glance at his watch though and noticed that it was the appointed time.

Fuji and Saeki came in, one with angry expression while the other with martyred expression. They sat on the couch just across Atobe's desk and waited for Atobe to finish his paperwork.

"Hey, hurry up, I don't have eternity to wait for you, you know," Fuji remarked impatiently as she stared at her worn-out watch and tapped her foot impatiently on the floor. "If I, by any chance, get late by ten minutes I'll surely get scolded," she added.

"Don't have to worry, it'll be finished in two minutes if you stop talking," Atobe said and Fuji was about to protest, but then decided against it.

"I've just talked once, and with this twice," she muttered under her breath and Saeki tried his best to not laugh out loud. Watching those two fight is just as interesting as watching a dog and cat fight.

And after two minutes sharp, Atobe got up from his seat and motioned the others to go out of the student council room, followed closely behind by him.

When they got out, however, a guy with long dark blue hair and glasses came by. He was about to enter the student council room when Atobe stopped him and started to discuss some matters with him.

"Hey, I really don't have eternity to wait for you, or should I just leave you here?" Fuji protested as she was getting impatient once again, tapping her foot on the floor and nearly banging her head to the wall.

The both of them stopped talking abruptly, and when Atobe was about to bid goodbye to the dark blue haired boy, he positioned his glasses and looked at Fuji intently.

"Have we met before, miss?" he asked, not letting his gaze wander off.

"Ah, I believe we haven't, you may have mistaken me for someone else," Fuji stuttered. She forced a smile and the dark blue haired boy finally let the subject drop.

Atobe and he bade each other farewell and they went to different directions.

"You know him, Fuji?" Saeki asked.

"Yeah, I know him," Fuji answered.

"Oshitari Yuushi, the secretary of the student council," Atobe provided an answer.

"Not that, mind you," Fuji glared at the gray haired boy beside her, "He's a customer at the glasses shop where I work at," Fuji answered simply.

"Then no wonder if he recognizes you," Atobe commented.

"But I don't serve him, my friend does," she protested.

"Didn't you say that you work at a café?" Saeki asked.

"Yeah, why?"

"And you work at a glasses shop too?"

"Yeah, as long as it meant more income then I'll take the job," Fuji answered.

"I don't know you're that desperate," Atobe commented as he shook his head, before batting his hair.

"Stop that, it bugs me."

--------------------

At the mall, exactly at a boutique…

"I thought I agreed to wear girls' uniforms only," Fuji said grimly as she stared at the pile of woman clothes in front of her.

"Yes, but what if there is a party at school and you don't have anything to wear?" Atobe smirked.

"Then I'll get a hula skirt," Fuji retorted sarcastically as she rolled her eyes.

"Seriously?"

"No," she stated flatly. "I'm not buying these," she stated firmly.

"Oh? Why not? What if they found out about that? You don't forget about the bet, do you?" Atobe asked.

"Fine…"

Flashback

"A bet?" Fuji asked to Atobe who just approached her and asked if she wanted to make a bet with him.

"Yeah, you get to disguise as a girl and stay in the international school for four years, it's just that simple," Atobe answered.

"No way, I don't accept bets except they give me advantages in some way," Fuji declined.

"Well, the bet is ten millions yen and I will pay for everything you need starting from school fee and the other fees," Atobe offered, "But I won't pay for your rent or for your food," he added.

"It's a deal then," Fuji smirked. She was always fast at those kinds of things.

End of Flashback

When they were bringing the pile of woman clothes to the cashier, a familiar voice was heard.

"Oi Fuji!"

Fuji turned around to see who had just called her, and the other two did the same, only to see Eiji, along with Ooishi.
