"Mouuuu, please ring soon...bell..."

It was typically Friday afternoon, in the ever so quick, yet boring last block of the day. Unfortunately, Shirogane Yuzu, had a history class last block. To make matters worse, it was American history. Eww.

Yuzu impatiently watched the clock on the wall. It read 2:58, only 2 more minutes of the teacher droning. She tapped her pencil against the desk, while she was brooding. She combed her slender fingers through blond hair, her hazel eyes fixed on her loose-leaf paper as she doodled.

RING!

Yuzu realized that the bell for the end of the day has finally rung, and stood up. She casually walked out into the hallway (which was conveniently, the same hallway her locker was in.), when she heard an obnoxious voice.

"YO! YUZU-BAAAAKAA!"

She paused. The voice was far too familar. She turned around and looked around. Sure enough, he was there. Uchiha Kumo, the jackass who tended to "stalk" her, in Yuzu's terms.

"Kumo-kun...what do you want?" she said, half aggravated, half tired from that history class, and lack of sleep.

"You could show a little more enthusiasm, Yuzu-baka." Kumo replied, giving a nearly venomous glare. "If you care, you forgot your pencil in the classroom."

Yuzu stared at him. "You're serious? You just came to return a pencil?" There was a silence, and Yuzu spoke again. "Mou, Kumo-kun...you continue to amaze me..." she trailed off and started leaving.

Kumo glared back her way. "Well, aren't we a nasty little witch..." he thought, walking to his own locker to gather his things.

Yuzu, accompanied by her homework, which was in her school bag, slung over her arm, met her friends outside.

Yuzu was the kind of person who would rather have one or 2 really good friends then be in a huge group of people. Yuzu's first friend was Haruko Chiyu, who was the more bossy, and social one out of the 3. She was, however, the youngest, and had a birthday on the last day of December.

Yuzu's second friend was Mina Arakawa, the typically shy and quieter one of the group. She had a good sense of right and wrong, so often, she didn't join the ignorant Yuzu and Haruko when they did...well..stupid stuff. Mina, surprisingly, was the one who was quite beautiful, and had men in love with her.

"Yuzu-chan! What took you so long?" Haruko demanded, not surprising Yuzu that she was somewhat mad, because she took 5 minutes to get out of the school.

"Gomen, gomen!" She apologized, bowing. "That jerk, Kumo, stopped me to return my pencil!" Yuzu growled at the thought.

Mina spoke up. "Kumo-kun...? You mean that boy who keeps talking to you?"

Yuzu nodded, still keeping a venomous glare on her face.

Haruko interrupted Mina in her time of speaking. "Well, he's a dork. Doesn't he have the same birthday as you, or something?"

Yuzu started to walk, and her friends followed. "Unfortunately. Thats why he wants to be my friend so bad. Because I'm probably the only person he knows that has the same birthday as him. I know it sounds stupid, but do you seem him with anyone else...?"

"Yep; Honda-san and Yamaguchi-san." Mina replied, hating to destroy Yuzu's theory.

"...shut up. Oh great." Yuzu stopped once she saw the last person she wanted to see; Aoyama Sakuranbo. Sakuranbo was one of those...preppy girls. Who think their friends with everyone, with the exception of people like Yuzu who hate people like her.

Too late. Sakuranbo made her way over, and put on a fake smile. "Ahhh, Shirogane-chan! Good afternoon! You're birthday is this weekend, isn't it?"

Yuzu felt a twitch of anger. "Why yes, yes it is." 'WHY DO YOU CARE!"

Sakuranbo spread a devious smile across her face. "Well, do you think I could come celebrate it with you? Even better yet...I'm sure Uchiha-kun would looooove to celebrate birthdays with you!"

"Now excuse me while I go." she replied, speed walking, without looking where she was going. Haruko and Mina tagging along.

"IHATEHERIHATEHERIHATEHERI HATE HERRRR!" Yuzu felt like screaming. But she was smart and didn't, because she didn't want to be beat to pulp.

Haruko tried to comfort her friend. "Well, at least it's the end of the day...right...?"

Yuzu cooled down. "I suppose so...But I don't get why–" Yuzu was cut off when she ran into something. She fell back and hit the ground with a thud, moaning because she felt temporarily paralyzed from falling on her back.

Yuzu looked up, and saw a girl. The girl has Black-Navy hair, and hazel eyes. Her hair was...interesting. It was in short pigtails, with a long piece sticking out on the left side of her hair. And, to make it stranger, bangs by the long piece. She was on the ground too, from being hit by Yuzu.

"HEY!" she yelled, glaring right at Yuzu. "Watch where you're going! You could've killed me!"

Yuzu frowned. First Cherry-prep (XD), and now this brat. "Well, SOR-EE! It's not my fault I couldn't even see you!"

The girl seemed taken back. "W-w-what did you say!" she looked ready to tear Yuzu to bits.

"You heard me! I couldn't see you because you're so SHORT!"

The girl started to tremble. She stood up, and stepped forward. "Okay, brat! No one calls me a shortie, and gets AWAY WITH IT!"

Yuzu realized that this girl would beat her to pulp more then Sakuranbo, and started to run. Many people walking by stopped to watch the angry short girl chase Yuzu, which wasn't exactly helping Yuzu.

She ran up an overpass, still holding her school bag. Yuzu stopped half with on the overpass, and looked back. The other girl stopped too, she exhaled and inhaled quite heavily.

"Now..you're going to...pay!"
