Chapter II

Fuuko sighed. She had been sitting in the lobby for at least two hours. No one was up yet, and the sign on the front desk said that no one would be there until eleven. She had maybe.. three minutes left. She looked at the clock. 'Yep, three minutes left.' She fidgeted in her seat, swinging her legs back and forth and sighing for the umpteenth time. After a few minutes of counting the dots on the ceiling tiles the door from the back room opened. A woman with a tight face walked in. "Can I help you miss?" she asked in an almost high pitch voice.

"Um, yeah I just arrived this morning and I need to get my schedule and dorm keys. The notice that I got in the mail awhile back said that I should get it from the dorm lobby." Fuuko said as he got up and approached the desk. The lady eyed her, as if she were telling a lie. Fuuko eyed her back and resisted the urge to pull her tight cheeks to show she didn't want to be messed with this early. The woman 'huffed' and then with a click of the mouse, brought the computer out of its stand by mode. Her fingers made a fast tapping sound on the keyboard as she typed in password after password. 'Looks like they don't want anyone hacking in to the system…' Fuuko thought as she leaned against the desk waiting.

"Name?" She lady asked curtly. "Fuuko Kirisawa" Fuuko replied. The lady quickly typed it in and then clicked the mouse again. The printer on the other side of the lady jerked and started to print out paper. Fuuko was a little stunned as the printer spit out it 5 papers in less then 20 seconds. The lady stood up quickly startling Fuuko a little, and walked over to the far wall, to a locked cabinet. Fuuko herd the jingle of keys and then saw the door open. She watched as the woman reached in and pulled out two keys. She walked back over and laid the keys in front of her. "One key is for you to carry around, the other one is in case you need a spare. Your Dorm is Co-Ed." As she said as she reached over to the printed papers, straightened them, and then handed them to Fuuko. "Your room mate hasn't been decided yet. When your roommate arrives you will have to sign their paper, to show you both agree to the terms of living together. These papers are your schedule, agreements and terms for the dorms and some other info, sign agreements and bring them back after you read them." She pointed it out on the paper for Fuuko. Fuuko nodded her head, as she made sure to remember everything. She was also doing a little victory dance in her head. No roommate yet meant that she got to pick what bed she wanted AND she got to live alone.

"One more thing. There is no curfew for the dorms, but if there is any fighting, drugs or vandalism you will be dealt with properly. I hope that you wont be one of the few who don't follow these rules." The lady looked at her smugly. "Don't worry, Ill make sure I wont." Fuuko quickly turned away from her murmuring curses. "Stupid witch, better hope I don't break the first rule and kick your ass…" She grabbed her bags and stomped to the elevator. (1)

Once in the elevator Fuuko stared at the buttons. There were seven buttons so that meant there were a total of seven floors. She quickly looked at her schedule and pushed button seven. While waiting for the elevator to arrive at her floor she read though the papers the lady gave her. "So I'm on Floor seven and that mean I'm on the top floor. Room Number is 60. I have Classes in the morning…so that means I have to find a night job.. That'll be fun." Fuuko was brought out of her thinking when the elevator 'dinged' and the doors opened. Dragging out her baggage she took in the numbers on the doors. The door in front of her was 55. She looked to her right and saw that her room was all the way at the end. "That's another plus for me. Instead of worrying about 2 noisy neighbors I have only one beside me. Lets hope there nice." Fuuko said aloud as she made her way down the hall.

Once in front of her door she fished out the keys and opened the door. Fuuko was very happy with the room. She got a scholarship to one of the nicest art schools around, plus in Florida so that meant lots of clubbing, and parting. Plus she had the beach.

Smiling brightly she looked around the nicely furnished room. It was one big room. No bathroom cause that was down the hall. Each floor had its own bathroom and showers. The only downside was that since it was a co-ed school, that the showers and bathrooms were all connected. Bathrooms weren't that big a problem. They had stalls in the front then urinals in the back. So the girls wont really have to see the guys if there using the stalls. But the showers were what made Fuuko a little iffy. When looking at the booklet she got back when she was in Japan, it showed that the showers were lined up like stalls only each stall had three shower nozzles so 3 people can shower together. And the walls separating the stalls were like the bathroom stalls, where you can see though the cracks near the wall, so you can see into the next stall…. Yeah mornings will be enjoyable…the entrance to each stall was covered by the shower blurry see though shower curtains. So you can see someone in the stall just not the extreme detail.

The same pretty much went for the room. Since it was such a great school they say that the people going here can be grown enough to behave like adults.

There were two bunk beds on each side of the room. If she had a roommate she would have to share a closet, but she didn't mind much. She didn't have a huge wardrobe. If anything she needed to go shopping for some new clothes. Fuuko threw her bags on the top bunk and lay down in the bed. She was tired, and the jet lag was getting to her. There was only a sheet on the bed that separated her from the mattress. She would have to buy some other sheets and pillows from the school. And would have to go out and buy some nice blankets the next time she went out.

After a short while Fuuko ended up falling asleep curled up on the bed. sleeping for at least three hours. A loud slamming of the door jerked her away. She franticly looked around as she tried to stand up, only to fall down off the bed. "What the hell!" She yelled as she lay on the floor disheaved. A blurry figure hovered over her. She whipped her eyes to clear her vision. "Who are you? And what he hell are you here for? You can't just walk right into someone's room." She growled as she sat up. "The door was unlocked. I'm here cause this is MY Dorm. Get off the floor please and stop your yelling monkey." Fuuko bristled at this. She shot up and looked into the guys face getting ready to beat the crap out of him. Only she could do neither. She stared into ice blue eyes. "Oh my god your him! What's his face…um…Tokiya Mikagami? Yeah that's it! Wow…this is kinda creepy…really creepy." Fuuko said, as she looked him up and down. Tokiya just stood there glaring; only it went unnoticed by Fuuko. Fuuko walked around him. "Hmm so its not a wig or extensions like I though." She said as she picked up a silky strand of his hair and tugged on it lightly. Tokiya quickly turned to her. "Don't tell anyone who I am. They don't need to know that I was a singer in Japan. I would rather not have creepy people stalking me, when I'm already going to live with a monkey." he spoke in a chilling tone. Fuuko just stood there.

"Number one, why would I want to talk about you? I'm not one of your fans so I'm not going to run around proposing my love for you. Sorry about your stalking problem but I swear, you call me monkey one more time and I'm gonna cut your hair in the middle of the night." Fuuko stuck her tongue out at him and jumped on her bed. Ignoring the fuming Ice boy in the room. She dug though her purse and pulled out her cell phone. Turning it on she saw that Yanagi had texted her.

'Just wanted to check up on you. Hope you made it there all right. Text me back soon.'

Fuuko smiled as she texted Yanagi back. 'I made it fine. I got a roommate…. he had a stick up his ass…. But I think he's gonna be fun to pick on.' Fuuko laughed out loud catching the attention of Tokiya. He sat on his bed watching her. Well more like glaring but still. She sent the text and looked at the glaring singer. "Names Fuuko Kirisawa. Hope that we can get along this year." Fuuko smiled as she stood up and leapt up to the top bunk. She dropped her suitcases on the floor and then jumped down again. Tokiya watched her jump skip and hop all over the room as she put stuff in the closet and drawers in the dresser next to the closet. Once she was finished she shoved the empty bags under her bed. "Well I'm going out to explore a little. Your welcome to join me if you want." Fuuko said as she grabbed her key shoved it in her pocket and started for the door. Tokiya just sat there for a minute. Fuuko shrugged and opened the door not wanting to wait anymore. As she was closing the door Tokiya yanked it back open making her fall back a little. She caught herself and turned to glare at him. "Something tells me that you're being mean to me on purpose." She pushed him lightly and started walking. Tokiya said nothing but close the door and walk behind her. Fuuko skipped to the elevator and continuously pushed the down button. Tokiya gave her a look. "You know it doesn't make it go faster." he said. "Whatever." Fuuko said as she still pushed the button. Finally a ding sounded and the elevator doors opened. Fuuko entered it for the second time that day and pushed the button for the bottom floor. Tokiya gracefully walked in the elevator and leaned against the railing.

As the doors closed Fuuko turned to Tokiya. "Hey when we get back I need you to sign my paper and I need to sign yours. Then we can turn in out paper work to Miss Stretch." She said as she twisted. "Miss Stretch?" Tokiya asked curiously. "You know the old lady at the front desk. Her face looks like she shrunk her skin on her face. It's so tight. Like this!" Fuuko said as she used her hands to pull on her face making her eyes pop out a little and her mouth stretch a little. Tokiya gave her a questioning look as he shook his head. "Something tells me there will be no dull moments with you as my roommate" Tokiya said. The doors opened and Fuuko and Tokiya walked out. "You got that right buddy." She said as she laughed. They both walked out of the lobby together. "Hey Ice-man lets go shopping…"

(1) Some really nice collages have elevators. Plus I like elevators cause they make the 'ding'

noise

So I hoped you liked this chapter. Yes I know its kind of cliché that Fuuko and Tokiya live together. But it would be kind of boring if Tokiya lived in a different room don't you think? Cause you know that he would avoid Fuuko ALL the time if he didn't live with her. Plus having them both live together brings so many evil little ideas to my head. nn 3

So I hope the chapter was long enough. It's the longest by far. 4 full pages. Anyway any ideas on what I should have in store for Fuuko and Tokiya? Oh by the way I'm not much for OC characters, but I really like Micheal. I hope people won't mind if he comes back. Cause believe me in the future he has an important role. Anyway Luff you all!
