Title: Simple Words
Word: Bell
Request by: Lady Shera
Hikaru sat bored out of his wits in history class. He tried not to look like he was falling asleep as the teacher's voice droned on and on like those annoying little wheels that hamsters use. You know, the ones that squeak and squeak as they turn bugging the hell out of you until you take the damn thing out of the cage and then wonder who the hell invented the infernal contraption. Or well, some thing like that.
He was failing miserably. Every so often the teacher would look over at Hikaru and find him so close to drooling on his desk. She would simply glare at him and Kaour would poke him in the ribs causing him to sit up in his seat. How long was this class,Hikaru wondered. And why hadn't the bell run yet. Hikaru glared at the round silver object next to the clock. And it was at that moment that his teacher turned in his direction.
"Hikaru!" She said.
"Huh?"
"Tell us why hieroglyphics were so important to the Egyptians?"
"Um...well...because..."
Riiiiiiiiiing
Finally! Before the teacher could utter another word, Hikaru was out of the classroom faster than you could say, hopscotch, dragging his brother and Haruhi along with him.
I find that when I try to write in first person, I usually fail to convey the message of the story in most cases. So I switched to third person though I don't think the end result was quite what was expected. Hope everyone enjoyed it all the same.
