(Kuga Apartment)

'Beep, beep, beep."

Groaning in her bed and reaching an arm out from under the covers to slap her alarm shut, Natsuki Kuga was not a happy person. She lifted her head from her pillow, pulled her blanket down a bit and looked at the blaring red numbers on her alarm, that read 5:30am.

"Fuck..." She mumbled, pushing her blanket off and sitting up in her double bed. She slid her legs over to the right and set her feet on the floor, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes tiredly.

At the foot of the bed a small head popped up, tipped ears twitching at the sound of movement. No longer than 3 seconds passed before the small bundle yipped and jumped up from slumber, small paws thudding against the blankets as the black Siberian husky puppy ran up to the top of the bed, yipping happily.

"Mornin' Duran." The girl said, making the puppy grumble happily before nudging his muzzle into the hand moving to pet him. The girl chuckled quietly, amused by the puppy before firmly rubbing his head and behind his ears.

Sitting up straighter and reaching her arms behind her back, she pushed her balled fists into her spine and cracked her back, letting out a satisfied moan when it cracked. She did the same with her neck before she stood up, walking out of her bedroom and into the bathroom. She turned the light on, squinting her eyes when the light irritated them.

She stood in front of her white sink looking in the cabinet mirror at how exhausted she looked. Blinking at the red bloodshot eyes with dark bags under them, she grabbed her toothbrush and toothpaste and set the tap running and brushing her teeth.

Once her teeth had been brushed, she turned to her shower and turned it on, letting the water heat up a bit. She stripped off her plain white t-shirt and then her Calvin Klein boxers, throwing them into the laundry basket by the sink. She pulled her hair out from the high pony she had it in while sleeping and opened the shower glass door, getting in and taking a shower.

Scrubbing her body with body wash and then shampooing and conditioning her hair, she just let the water wake her up a bit. After 10 minutes she shut the shower off, opened the door and grabbed a towel to wrap around her body and another for her hair.

She left the bathroom and headed back into her bedroom, towel drying her body before pulling on some black and white Calvin Klein 365 boxers and a black bra. She then grabbed a pair of blue skinny jeans that hugged her legs well, a plain white t-shirt, and then a black Nike hoodie and some socks. She pulled on her clothes besides from the hoodie and then towel dried her hair until it was barely damp before straightening her wavy hair out with the straighteners.

Wiping her face with a wipe to avoid dry skin, she then pulled on the Nike hoodie and her Nike Air Max 90's black and white to match. Once she was dressed for the day, she cleaned up her bedroom and bathroom and once that was done went back into her bedroom to grab her things.

"Come on so I can feed you." Duran's eyes shot open wider, yipping a bit louder as he quickly jumped off of the bed and onto the floor, his paws padding against the carpeted floor. He sat patiently at the bedroom door, resisting his urge to paw at it.

Grabbing a rucksack, 2 suitcases and her Iphone 5S and headphones, she was almost ready. She quickly grabbed her wallet before she forgot it; everything else was in her rucksack.

Natsuki made her way down the hallway, stopping at another door further down. She rolled her eyes and sighed in annoyance, dropping her stuff and grabbing the door handle.

Throwing the door open and strutting in, she walked to the bed in the room and grabbed hold of an ankle unhidden by the blankets. She pulled and yanked on the ankle, dragging a body out from under the covers and letting the ankle go so the body fell on the ground with a thud.

"What the fuck...!" The boy on the floor growled.

"Eiji, get up." Natsuki said, turning around and grabbing her suitcases completely ignoring her brother shouting shit at her back. She walked like she hadn't just ragged her brother out of bed and dropped him on the floor.

Walking out into the living room she dropped her stuff off, noting her mothers presence, then went into the kitchen to make some cereal for breakfast. Washing the bowl once she was finished, she checked the time: 6:30am.

Natsuki looked at her mother sat at the kitchen table, drinking black coffee and looking at her phone. Natsuki trudged over, sticking her hands into her pockets and stood awkwardly next to her mother.

Saeko looked up at her daughter, her face set like stone, but her eyes lightening up at the sight of her daughter. "Good morning, Natsuki." Saeko said, putting her phone on the table.

Natsuki cleared her throat, shifting from foot to foot. "Mornin' mum." She grumled. "What are you doing here?"

"I came to see you before your trip, I wasn't going to let you go without saying goodbye first." Saeko said, confusion and slight hurt swimming in her grey eyes.

Natsuki nodded her head, not sure what to say back to that so she looked all around the room, but not looking at Saeko. Thankfully for Natsuki, Duran pawed at her leg and let out some small whines. She quickly followed after him to feed him, let him eat his biscuits and meat before going outside to let him do his business.

On her way back in she noticed her brother walking down the hall and yawning, his uniform barely done. He wiped his eyes and groaned. "Hey mum."

"Eat something Eiji, I don't have all day to wait around for you." Natsuki said, sighing at her brother shrugging at her.

Eiji is a year younger than her; he just turned 16 before she turned 17. He's an half an inch shorter and he has the same dark blue locks of hair as she does that was styled so when he ran his fingers through his hair it pushed over to the side, but he inherited grey eyes from Saeko where Natsuki had emeralds from her father. He has an athletic build, but he's not built.

"Chill out Natsuki," Eiji sighed, opening the fridge and grabbing a drink of orange juice. "It's early and I'm tired."

"Yeah, well, if you didn't stay out all night with your loser buddies getting high and drinking you wouldn't feel like shit this morning." Natsuki said, clenching her jaw and resisting the urge to punch him in his face.

He whistled. "Oh ouch. You hurt me with your pathetic caring words."

"Talk to me like that again and I'll break your fucking nose." Natsuki hissed, glaring at him.

"Stop arguing!" Saeko said, raising her voice over her teenage children.

Eiji glared back, but when his hangover kicked in he sighed and gave her the finger instead.

Natsuki rolled her eyes, gave Duran a kiss and made sure he had water and food to last him till the neighbour came round, before grabbing her suitcases again. "We're going now, hurry up or I'll fucking drag you kicking and screaming."

Eiji rolled his eyes, typical Kuga trait before grabbing his own school bag, shoving Natsuki's shoulder when he walked out the front door and towards Natsuki's Audi A4 black car which was her 17th birthday present from their dad. He leaned against the car, watching Natsuki exit the apartment block and talk to their mum before wheeling her cases to the boot and shoving them in before getting into the driver's seat.

They both buckled their seatbelts; Natsuki started the car and began to drive while Eiji turned on the radio putting on a station with all of the new songs.

Groaning at how early it was, Natsuki began the drive to Fuuka Academy.

(Fuuka Academy)

Natsuki pulled her car into the parking lot for students, parking in a free space before shutting the car off. She unbuckled and got out, moving to the boot and grabbing her suitcases and rucksack. She placed them on the floor, checked to make sure no one was in the car and locked it, throwing her keys to Eiji since he would be driving the car back home.

Eiji stood awkwardly, not knowing if he should say bye or not. Just as he opened his mouth, a body flung into his, interrupting whatever he was going to do.

"Eiji!" A girl shouted, hugging him before pulling back and giving him a kiss.

Natsuki rolled her eyes at her brother and his fling of the week. She walked straight past the couple, ignoring Eiji's torn look as she made her way to her classroom.

"Calm down everyone!" A teacher shouted from the front of the classroom. She looked at all of her students practically bouncing around the classroom in their excitement and trying to calm them down wasn't working.

Natsuki was sat in her seat, her headphones in trying to ignore the noise her classmates were making. She sighed; hoping they weren't like this the whole trip. With the teacher threatening to cancel the trip if they didn't quieten down the whole room went silent and the teacher began taking attendance.

Muttering when her name was called, she turned back to look out of the window. The sun was risen and for a minute it captured her attention until the teacher started listing off what they were going to do.

"Natsuki!" Mai called, pulling her suitcases up to her best friend when everyone in the class stood to make a move down to the coaches. "Put a smile on your face, will ya?" She teased.

Natsuki's jaw clenched. "Why are you so damn happy in the mornings?" She grumbled, walking beside her best friend.

"Why aren't you happy? Come one Natsuki! We're going to Garderobe Academy for 2 weeks!" Mai exclaimed, noting her friend just didn't want to put a smile on her face.

"I don't care about the stupid trip, Mai." Natsuki sighed. "I'm leaving behind my motorbike, car, my apartment, work and not to mention Duran! I had to leave him with my damn neighbour; I don't trust those dog kennels with puppies his age or Eiji."

"Natsuki; you literally have the shittest life ever. You're boring and you don't give a shit about anything besides from what you just mentioned. Live a little for crying out loud!" Mai groaned, gently bumping her shoulder into Natsuki's.

"You wouldn't understand, Mai." Natsuki barked as they walked out of the building towards the coaches.

"Why? Coz I don't have a dick like you?" Mai retorted, rolling her eyes.

"No; you wouldn't understand because you didn't grow up alone. I never see my dad, I only get his checks in my bank account and I have to work for money for my bike and everything else. My mother, as far as I know, is working herself so hard to pay off all the debts she has. I don't have a good relationship with my brother like you. I live by myself with Duran and Eiji only stays when he can't go back to my dads. I have like 2 friends total and I seriously hate people. So for once Mai, shut up, because you don't understand what my life is like." Natsuki ranted, glaring at Mai as she passed her suitcases to the coach driver to put away.

Mai was unfazed, doing the same before following Natsuki onto the coach and sitting next to her. "You're just a bummer." She said.

Natsuki scoffed, putting her headphones in and listening to music. Pausing it a minute later, she listened to her teacher at the front of the coach.

"This will be around a 2 hour drive to the airport and then it will be a 3 hour plane ride to garderobe. We will go straight to the hotel where you will change into your uniforms and we will head to Garderobe Academy. Don't be too loud on this coach." She said, sitting down.

Natsuki shook her head, listening to her music again and closing her eyes to sleep.

"Alright everybody, take your stuff to your assigned hotel room, change into your uniforms and meet downstairs in the restaurant. We'll have something to eat and then head over to the academy!" A teacher shouted, watching the students split off before joining the other teachers.

Natsuki and Mai headed to the room they would be sharing and they took a minute to check out the hotel room before dumping their luggage and stretching.

"2 hours on a coach and 3 hours on a plane, damn." Natsuki groaned, stretching out her arms.

"Tell me about it." Mai agreed, sitting on the edge of her bed.

"We don't even get to rest! Once we eat we have to go to that Academy for the rest of the day!" Natsuki moaned, her stiff muscles relaxing a bit.

"The sooner we get on with what they want us to do, the sooner we can sneak out and head into the city!" Mai laughed, straightening out her uniform as she and Natsuki made there way towards the door.

"True." Natsuki agreed, pulling on her academy blazer.

They both headed downstairs and grabbed something to eat for a late lunch since it was almost 2 in the afternoon. Once everyone had regrouped and eaten, the students set off to Garderobe Academy on foot since the hotel wasn't that far from the Academy.

(Garderobe Academy)

"Hello and welcome Fuuka Academy students; we are happy to have you all here for this learning experience. I am headmistress Maria Graceburt." A woman with grey hair and piercing eyes said, her eyes scanning the crowd of Fuuka students.

Natsuki knew she and that woman would not get along for this trip.

"For today you will be having a calm experience; your teachers will have your name and a student's name from Garderobe Academy and you two will be together for the next 2 weeks doing a variety of activities. Please go to your assigned teacher to be put into groups, the same applies for my academy, and then you will be put together and find your partners. You may start now." She finished, standing down from her microphone.

Natsuki just groaned. What an annoying old woman; there were so many students they'd be at this for like 2 hours trying to find their partners.

"Natsuki Kuga; you're in group A which is over there and your partner is Shizuru Viola." The teacher called out, knowing if she didn't tell the girl then she most likely wouldn't have bothered finding out.

'Great.' She thought, sticking her hands into her slack pockets and making her way over to Group A.

There was only a few people there at the minute and she figured if her partner wanted to find her, then she can come to her. There was no way in hell she was walking around shouting 'Shizuru Viola', it was just not going to happen.

She stood leaning against a tree, looking over the small amount of students around. She immediately spotted one girl that took her breath away.

The girl was around the same height as her, Natsuki having a few centimeters on the girl. She had long flowing tawny/light brown hair that reached mid back and was slightly wavy with bangs. She had captivating crimson eyes that seemed to look right through you. She had a slender body, but Natsuki could tell the girl was curvy. She had an aura that seemed to just draw attention and she didn't walk, she practically strutted and glided.

Natsuki couldn't tear her eyes away and she felt her dick twitch in her pants before she reprimanded herself, shaking her head to get rid of those thoughts. She came here because her mum paid for the trip, she wasn't here to stare at girls from this Academy.

The girl walked up to her teacher, then the teacher pointed in her direction and the girl nodded thanks before making her way over. No way that this girl was her-

"Hello, I'm Shizuru Viola, your partner." The girl said and Natsuki felt her knees almost buckle.

Shizuru didn't just look amazing, she sounded it too with her light voice and her Kyoto accent.

Natsuki coughed. "Natsuki Kuga."

Shizuru smiled, her eyes raking over Natsuki and taking in the girl she would be spending 2 weeks with.

Natsuki had a few centimeters height compared to herself. She had long straight dark blue locks of hair that flowed down her back, piercing emerald eyes and a perfectly sculpted jaw line. She had a slender body, Shizuru could tell, but she had a light leanness to it. The girl screamed 'mess with me and I'll break your face', but Shizuru thought it just added charm. The girl was certainly a sight to behold.

"Ara, it's certainly nice to meet you Nat-su-ki..." Shizuru said, testing out the name on her tongue. She smiled when Natsuki's face lit up in a blush.

"Y-Yeah, you too." Natsuki stuttered, standing from the tree.

Shizuru giggled, mirth dancing in her crimson eyes. "Would you like to meet back up with the group so we know what it is we're going to be doing?" She asked.

Natsuki just nodded her head, not trusting her voice at the minute. Together, the two walked back to the group, seeing most of the students were all paired up now.

The teacher handed them a sheet each with their names on it and the activities they would be doing together, mostly sports and competing agaisnt each other and other pairs.

Natsuki shrugged, she didn't really mind sports, she loved it actually so she was happy. Shizuru seemed okay, but if Natsuki were to guess Shizuru only does physical activities when it's got to be done.

The two began chatting about their activities and the school day eventually finished and Natsuki and Shizuru went their separate ways for the day.

When Natsuki got back to the hotel room, she sighed, but it wasn't a bad sigh, rather a content one. Sure, Shizuru liked to tease her at every chance she got, but Natsuki really liked the girl so she didn't mind it.

Just what was happening to her?
