Remembering: Chapter One
Who are You?
"Bye Mom! I'll be home directly after school." Mimi shouted as she closed the door.
Mimi Tachikawa, 14, was walking towards school. She was dressed in the school uniform of blue pleated skirt, white long sleeved blouse, black tie and blue blazer. She was what you would call, a nerd, With practically zero fashion sense and an IQ of 150.
But it wasn't always like this. A couple of years back, he had fallen in love with her. But unfortunately, disaster struck. There was never a happy ending. She separated herself from everyone except her best friends.
Mimi's POV

' Sigh, another day at that horrible place. How could anyone love that place? Well besides going to see Tai and Sora, I don't think there is any other plus point' Mimi thought tucking a stray lock of hair behind her ear.
Why did you have to leave?
You protected me
Helped me
Saved me
A car drove past me at like a million miles per hour.
Wait.
Was that a flash of blonde? I mean it can't be. How?
Yamato's POV
---
Ok. Just let me find a damned space. Aha! I maneuvered my car into the space before the dude on my left.
I stepped out coolly and said, "Tough luck man." The look he gave me was not exactly pleasant. I slung my book bag over my shoulders.
I ran up the stairs, receiving many stares from girls. Not that I wasn't used to it. I just didn't like it. I don't rave attention all the time. Its not my fault that I was born good looking right?
Anyway, I bumped into this idiot'shumongous stomach so my natural reaction was to scold the crap out of him
"Watch where you are going punk, I'm already late seeing the bloody principal."
The guy looked up and stared straight into my eye and said, "I am that bloody principle and I am currently looking for you."
"Gomen."
"No harm done boy, come to my office."
I trailed behind him still wondering how can some one be so short.
"Here is your schedule, locker number and watch out sonny, you don't want to mess with me," The principle warned me once I was in his office.
Yeah whatever.
I was taking my time to walk when I bumped into a smaller figure, probably a girl's. The one thing that surprised me was how she knew my name
Mimi's POV
---
"Y-Yamato?" I stuttered.
He looked at me confused but I didn't pay much attention to that. I was hugging him when I heard him say, "Who are you?"
Those simple three words made the whole world of a difference to me. I mean how could he forget?
"You- I- don't you remember?"
"Remember what?" He asked still in his I-am-confused-so-sue-me mode.
My tears flowed down my cheek. Splattering on the floor.
"Something... something that doesn't matter to you anymore." With that I spun on my heels and took off. I ran to the washroom and sat in a corner and cried.
I stood up eventually and wiped away my tears. I felt and looked terrible. My eyes were red and my hair was a mess. Mixed emotions ran through me like running water. I splashed my face with water and decided, "I'll never do such foolish things again."
I headed off to class.
Mimi entered the class and sat in between her two best friends.
"Hey Meems, you're late." Tai said
"Yup, you are never late. What happened?" Sora asked.
"Oh nothing, I just stayed up late to study for the science test that's all," Mimi responded.
"Damn. I didn't study. Why do you need to study anyway? You're so smart." Sora said.
"I hope the old sandbag face forgets though." Tai cut in and all of them started laughing.
"Ahem." The teacher entered the room, clearing his throat in annoyance. He disapproved of any noise and hated giggles. He must have had a deprived childhood.
The teacher unpacked as the class settled down.
"Now, I have marked your quizzes and, I sad to say all of you failed except Mimi and surprisingly Tai."
A girl sitting in front of Tai turned around in her chair and asked, "Did you cheat?"
"No I didn't!" Tai responded flabbergasted.
Clearing his throat again, the teacher continued, "Well, we have a new student today, I'll just go out and get him.
The girls perked up at the mentioning of the opposite sex. The guys just sulked, in a way.
"Pull up your tie," everyone heard from inside as the teacher barked at him.
He strolled in, as a gasp was heard.
Mimi's hazel eyes turned glassy, "Not important anymore..."
That's the revamped chapter one. I don't know why Remembering was deleted but it will take me sometime to update chapters one to eight because during the whole process of writing remembering, my computer crashed. So I have to rewrite these 8 chapters. Chapters 9-14 will be the same though. Holidays are going to be over...
sigh-
p.s: I finished typing out chapter 15 the last chapter. But I have to update chapters one to fourteen first before you people get to read chapter 15. I can tell you that it's a pretty long chapter )
1 down 13 chapters more to go.
