Hello everyone! I am so sorry I haven't updated in so long, just wanted to say I took Sumi Keiichi out of the story because I have no idea where he would fit into this story, please enjoy.

Ren


Ren POV

I looked in the mirror and gave myself a once over for the tenth time. I wore a dark pair of skinny jeans with a burgundy long sleeve off the shoulder top with straps. My hair was reaching the small of my back, it had grown out since I was adopted. I grabbed my bag and headed to the kitchen.

"Good morning papa!" I greeted him as I sat down at the table.

"Ah, good morning Ren." He replied taking a sip of his coffee.

"Is daddy at the hospital now?"

He nodded his head. We ate breakfast in silence, it was a peaceful morning and the first day of University.

"Papa, do you think I could take a few courses in economics? If I can't make it in literature, I at least want to have a backup plan." I asked.

"That's probably a smart idea, it would be bad if you didn't have any alternatives."

"Are we going to walk to the University together?"

"Ren I think it's best if we go separately." He sighed.

"Why is that papa?" I pouted slightly.

"I am Kamijou-sensei, my students think I'm the devil when I teach, I want you to make friends without me being in the way." He said with a slight blush forming on his cheeks.

"Papa…you don't have to worry about things like that, if the people there can't accept the fact I am your daughter, then I have no reason to become their friend."

"Guess you already thought it over, let's go before we're late." He smiled at me before drinking the last bit of his coffee.

I grabbed my sneakers and waited outside for papa as I put them on, he walked out a few moments later and locked the door.

"Ready?" I asked.

"Silly, of course I'm ready. I'm an adult."

"I never said that you weren't papa!" I laughed.

We starting away from the apartment area and headed to the sidewalk, I bit my lip nervously as I clutched onto my bag tightly. It was nerve wracking to start college and at the same time it was equally as exciting, meeting new people and hopefully making new friendships. It was a quiet walk, just like the quiet breakfast we had. I smiled as I remembered papa looking out for my reputation, he really cares for people, but he definitely had a funny way of showing it. As a family we still had a long way to go, everyone became busy again and the time we spent together had been limited.

"Ren! We're here, if you keep zoning out you're going to hit the main gate!" Papa grabbed the strap on my bag and pulled me back a little bit.

"Oh! Thank you Kamijou-sensei!" I let out a nervous laugh and bowed.

"Sensei?" He gave me a confused look.

"I figured it would be appropriate to call you Sensei when we're at school."

"You really thought about these things, can't believe you're not an adult yet." He sighed shaking his head.

"I'm off to class Kamijou-sensei, maybe we'll see each during lunch, or we can walk to class together!" I said somewhat teasingly.

"Do your best and I'll do mine." He gave me a pat on the head as he brushed past me.

"I will papa." I whispered as I followed a few steps behind him.

"Silly girl." I heard him and watched his ears turn red, I think that means that he's happy.

I found my way to the building my first class was in and looked around…hmm somewhere around here, just a few more doors down this hall and there's 402 A. I reached forward and opened the door, it was strange, the students were all huddled together in groups, it looked unnatural, I looked around a bit more and saw a person sprawled on the floor. I panicked and ran up the stairs to help him.

"Hey are you okay? Are you hurt? Do you need me to take you to the infirmary? Should I call 119?" I asked as I helped him up

"A-A-A-Ah no i-i-i-it's okay, t-t-t-there's no need for that!" I gasped when I saw his face.

"It's you Takahashi-san we need to stop running into each other, literally!" I beamed.

"O-O-O-Oh Kamijou-san! You're in this school too?" I saw his eyes light up for a second.

"I am, let's exchange contact information, like we promised." I said as I took out my phone.

"Okay, I'm sending it now."

"I got it, here I'll send mine."

"Got it."

"Hey, let's sit together I feel more comfortable now that you're here." I patted the seat next to me.

"Really?! You mean it Kamijou-san?"

"I mean it. Actually, do you think you could call me by my first name? It would be less complicated than saying our surnames all the time." I suggested.

"R-R-R-Ren-san…" I giggled when he turned red.

"Misaki-chan, Misaki-kun, Misaki-san or Misaki? Which do you prefer?"

"Misaki is fine." He answered quietly.

"Then Ren is fine as well!"

"I'm so happy! Everyone was avoiding me. You're like an angel from above!" He looked at me with such innocent eyes it was hard to not find him cute.

"Avoiding you?" I asked.

"Mm, I live with Usami Akihiko-sensei, he's my older brother's best friend."

"You were the one he was waiting for!?" I said a bit too loudly.

"Huh?"

"Usami-sensei, I met him during the entrance exam and saw him checking his watch every five seconds he looked super anxious. When I asked him if I could help, he rudely told me off and I ended saying he had a shitty attitude and talked about giving him a smack on the head…you must think I'm a terrible person now." I rambled on.

"N-N-N-N-No I don't think so at all, he is difficult to get along with." Misaki admitted.

"Misaki, you won't think differently of me if you find out one of my secrets will you? I won't keep anything from you if you ask." I leaned in closer and looked him straight in the eyes.

"I won't."

"Let's pinky swear." I said holding up my hand.

"Mm, pinky swear." He answered shaking my pinky with his.

"It's a promise!"

I jerked my hand away when I realized people were whispering about me being amazing for talking to the boy who was driven to school in a red sports car. I tried to contain my urge to pinch the bridge of my nose. Here I was thinking I would cause problems for papa, but in the end I've become the topic of the day just because I made another possible friend. I sighed.

"Is everyone here? My name is Miyagi Yoh and I'm going to start the introduction." He must be the one papa was talking about earlier, "I'm going to be explaining the classes you will be taking with Kamijou-sensei, mainly just a general overview. As a warning for any of those who have not had a class with Kamijou-sensei yet, I advise you not to slack off in his class, he loves his students with an iron fist and he's not afraid to show it in a classroom full of thrown objects." Professor Miyagi rubbed the back of his neck and laughed nervously, it wasn't very convincing.

Is that really something to joke about? I tried not to cringe as I imagined what would happen after lunch.
