Chapter 1

A/N: Hey everyone! This is my first try at anime, so plz feel free to comment on anything that needs improvement. I've watched the Love Hina series, so I thought on writing about Keitaro and his very complicated life after getting into Tokyo U-suddenly university doesn't seem so cool anymore... Happy reading everyone

Keitaro yawned and stretched lazily before clearing his eyes. He looked outside the window to find that the sun wasn't up yet. 'Good' he needed time to prepare for his first day at Tokyo U. Just thinking about it made him pump his fist in the air-finally, he was in the university of his dreams, with the girl of his dreams!

He'd been dreaming about this day for how long? He couldn't remember, but he knew he had to make a big impression on his first day. He crept around the Inn stealthily, cautious not to wake anyone; he could hear everyone's snores from their rooms as he made his way around.

After taking up half an hour in the hot springs, he took another hour changing outfits and doing his hair. Finally, when he was finished, he heard everyone moving around and preparing themselves for the day.

He wanted to give Naru a surprise in his fresh new 'look' and also ask her if she was as excited as him on their first day at the university. He poked his head up in to her room in the hole that Grandma had drilled. It really made life easier.

"Naru! What do you think! It's our first day…omigosh, I'm so excited, but nervous-" Keitaro started blubbering, until he realized that Naru was right in front of him…and not looking very happy.

"YOU IDIOT! WHY DO YOU ALWAYS SHOW UP WHEN I'M CHANGING CLOTHES?" Keitaro looked up at Naru, and indeed, she was changing. Hmm…in fact, he had a good view of the top of her breasts-

Naru caught where he was staring and Keitaro's eyes became dots…he knew what was going to come next.

CRASH

Indeed, he found himself land on the roof of a house a block away. His outfit was all ruined! His gelled hair was all dirty! How was he going to make a successful good impression on his first day? He sighed; he guessed that good things just didn't happen to him.

After brushing up as best as he could, Keitaro made his way down to the kitchen with his eyes closed. He could always follow the beautiful smells that Shinobu managed to come up with there. He soon found himself staring at breakfast with his tongue hanging out, saliva dripping from it-but he couldn't eat until everyone was seated.

Where was everyone anyway?

"Well, Mutsumi came down before, but she fell down the stairs and fainted, I moved her into a heap over there" Shinobu pointed to the corner of the stairs and indeed, Mustumi was lying in a heap, her arms and legs twisted in very odd positions.

Shinobu stuck a chopstick into the miso soup and tasted it, nodding in approval. "Oh, Motoko went to kill someone after they said hello to her when she was in a bad mood"

Keitaro grinned nervously as he pictured Motoko's scary sword sticking out of someone's gut…the pour soul.

"Kitsune's lying around somewhere with smashed bottles around, Su's inventing a 'secret' weapon that hypnotizes people and makes them under her control…oh, and Naru seemed really pissed when she stormed down this morning-I think she's cooling off in the hot springs"

Keitaro gave a high-pitched chuckle as he looked anxiously in the direction of the hot springs…he really couldn't afford to piss Naru off again.

Finally, everyone was making their way down to breakfast. Shinobu grinned happily as everyone tucked in and praised her on the tasty food. Motoko's sword was dripping with blood and she plunked it down on the living room floor.

Kitsune was walking around in circles as she tried to make her way to the dining table. Mutsumi was still laying there, nobody bothering to slap her and wake her up for breakfast. Su was smiling deviously as she pocketed a small device in her pocket.

Naru made a dramatic appearance, storming in, her face cherry red as she stared daggers in Keitaro's direction-Keitaro was sure he'd be lying on the floor, blood and guts everywhere if looks could kill.

Life was as normal as it could be in Hinata.

As he quickened his pace to catch up to Naru, Keitaro was having doubts of having a blast in Tokyo U. He was actually pretty nervous as he looked around him-students were rushing up carrying folders and looking very professional.

He consulted his timetable, his first lecture was English…he snuck a peek in Naru's direction-she was still mad with him about the morning's incident. Seriously, it wasn't as if he hadn't seen her change before. In fact, it was a regular incident that he 'coincidently' saw her in the inappropriate moments.

Preparing himself for life in university, Keitaro slicked a strand of hair back, and smoothed out his shirt, dusting off the dust balls that he'd come into contact when he fell into the abandoned storage house after rolling off the roof that morning.

'Tokyo U-here I come!' Keitaro silently proclaimed as he stepped into the building.

Just as he was about to take in the view, he realized that his shoelace was caught in the drain that ran across the building. Keitaro grimaced…he'd always been clumsy, that he had to admit, but this was horrible! On the first day of school and he trips over for everyone to see and laugh at.

Keitaro fell splat on his face, his glasses nearly breaking under the pressure. He sighed as he picked himself up, he was sure he'd meet the guffawing faces of his fellow classmates, but he was wrong this time. There were people crowding around him, that was for sure, but their eyes weren't focused on him, they were-

-looking dreamily at Naru.

Well, the guys were, the girls were looking at her with wide grins and nodding to each other in approval. Naru stared down at him with the kindness she always possessed. Keitaro grinned up at her as she helped him up, he was sure glad that she was over her anger from the morning. Keitaro looked around and knew that Naru was already a big hit with everyone just by her appearance.

Keitaro felt a bubble of jealously form in the pits of his stomach growing bigger and stronger as he studied each of the guys looking dreamily at Naru. 'University people were different; they have an air of sophistication surrounding them. What do I have to compete with them for Naru?' Keitaro hung his head in shame…he couldn't lose Naru after all they'd been through; he loved her…and what about the promise?

They had to be together forever! Keitaro's cheeks were flushed from anger and more determination. As he looked at Naru, he found her eyes showing concern and care for him…they didn't even glance at the guys that were staring suggestively at her. Keitaro grinned a thousand watt smile that radiated a warm glow through his whole body. He believed he could win Naru's love, and besides, what was life without dreams and beliefs?

Keitaro marched happily beside Naru as they entered the theatre together. University life was a new experience, but Keitaro knew he'd make the most of it and show Naru that he wasn't a cowardly good for nothing excuse for a man. He was a man…a strong, courageous man, and he would show University what he was made of.

A/N: Yup, so this is the first chapter…a little short I know, but I just wanted ya'll to see if you liked the beginning. I'd really appreciate the support and comments Thanx heaps!
