I just realized that I never wrote disclaimers except for the stories which were part of my On a Roll Series because there never was any need. I just want to put one in every chapter. My main reason is because I refuse to leave the beginning of a chapter void of bold words/sentence (s). It doesn't look well for me. Strange, I know.

Disclaimer: I disclaim. (Waste of time/space?)

Misaki the Supermaid

Chapter Three: Uncharacteristic

Misaki sighed as she slung her bags over her shoulder. Suzuna was behind her, luggage in hand.

Misa locked the door to their house. With one last look to the empty windows, they exited the gate.

The day after Misa accepted to become Usui's personal maid was the day that she would start working. She was to live in the mansion with him much to her dismay, but Suzuna could stay with her.

Usui leaned on a nearby post nonchalantly. He had his hands in his pockets and smirked as soon as he saw Misa glare at him.

"You've finally arrived," he said, standing up straight. He then walked forward, Misa and Suzuna following him.

"We're walking?" Misa asked incredulously. She was starting to doubt him. What if this was all a trick? The debt hadn't been paid yet, and they were passing through the more disorganized and rude part of the city. Usui really was mysterious.

He only nodded and continued walking.

After a few more minutes of walking, the background became homier. The lands were bigger and emptier. It was silent. Misa looked around, amazed. This place was for the richest of the rich.

Usui kept on walking forward. Misa and Suzuna followed him. Misa also discovered that as they went farther, the lots became grander and grander. They still hadn't stopped. Did that mean that Usui's home was enormous?

The street soon came to an end. Misa gaped at the lot in front. Suzuna only muttered an "Oh," and Usui smirked.

The gate itself was huge. Misa couldn't even estimate on how tall it was. Was this Usui's home?

She found herself blushing once she realized that she was gaping and Usui had caught her. He smirked at her, holding the smaller gate open, saying "Ladies first."

Misa and Suzuna entered and saw a huge garden. It was mostly neatly cut grass, but there were a few bushes and other things around. There was a pathway of stone in the middle, but it seemed not to end. She couldn't even see the house.

"Usui, where exactly is-" She began ask but stopped as she saw Usui following the path. She coughed and then followed once more.

The path wasn't that long, but it sloped downwards, and the house was hidden behind the hill.

The mansion was impressive. It was certainly huge, and there was even a small fountain nearby.

Suzuna, Misa and Usui entered without a word. As soon as they stepped in, a man, who Misa presumed to be the butler, approached Usui. He bowed politely then walked beside him.

"The elder girl is your new personal maid, Master Usui?" he asked, and Usui merely nodded.

Suzuna only followed from behind. She was silently admiring the architecture.

The first floor was divided into many rooms. The entrance was long, and the rooms (e.g. kitchens, dining area, ballroom, library, etc.) branched out into the sides. The floor was carpeted, and the staircase was also very grand. It started out wide, then also branched out into three areas (left, right and center), each leading into its own specific place.

"Follow me, miss. Also bring your sister." The butler told Misa. She turned towards him and nodded. Usui was gone. Where did he go?

They took the left staircase, and ended up in a long hallway. The butler directed Misa and Suzuna into a small room where a woman had just finished cleaning and was heading out.

"This is Satsuki. She is the Head Maid. She shall inform you of your work and everything you must know. Now, please excuse me. I have errands to complete." The butler said quickly and curtly. He strode out quickly, and left Misa speechless.

The woman, Satsuki, had short hair. She had bright eyes and looked extremely friendly. She was already grinning at Misa, and that made her feel both accepted and shy at the same time.

"Ah, you're Master Usui's new personal maid, right? That's so cute! He likes you, I'm sure, because you were the only personal maid of his that he actually picked himself! You'll love Master too. He's so kind." Satsuki blabbered on, flowers growing at her background, and her eyes had a dreamy look.

"Head Maid, please," Misa called out, confused "Can we talk about that another time? I haven't worked as a maid before, and I need to learn. Please teach me,"

Satsuki's eyes gleamed. Her flowery aura grew brigher. "Oh, you're so cute! What's your name again? Please call me Satsuki. Of course I'll teach you~!"

"Ayuzawa Misaki, but you may call me Misa. Th-thank you, Head M-Satsuki." Misa stuttered, smiling nervously. Satsuki's flowers grew.

"Awww...you really are adorable, Misa-chan! Well, on to the lessons." Satsuki giggled, skipping slightly.

Misa sweat dropped.

Suzuna was soon forgotten.


Usui walked through the hallway quietly. He heard noise coming from a room then stopped and raised a brow in curiosity.

The door slammed open. Out came Satsuki pushing Misa, who was frantically trying to return to the room and was blushing. Suzuna stuck her head out and persuaded Misa to step outside.

Misa blushed even harder when she saw Usui. She pulled her skirt down, trying to make it cover more of her legs. She had worn boots, but a dress was a dress.

Usui's eyes widened for a while. Misa was in her maid costume, but it looked more like it was for cosplay.

"Master Usui, this is Misa-chan in her maid outift. Isn't she cute~?" Satsuki asked, flowery aura and glittery eyes and all.

Usui smiled. His smile turned into a grin. After that, it became a smirk.

"Yeah," he replied, inching closer to Misa "She really is cute."

Misa gritted her teeth and leaned back. Her face was completely red as Usui leaned in closer, smirking.

"Absolutely adorable."

"UWAH!" Misa yelled, stumbling backwards onto Satsuki then jumping away. She pointed an accusing finger to Usui. "DON'T KEEP YOUR FACE SO CLOSE TO MINE, PERVERTED USUI!"

Usui smiled.

"That's 'perverted Master Usui' from now on." He told her, grinning like a chesire cat.

Misa coughed, and blushed again. Oh yeah, the debt problem and its solution.

"Fine, but don't expect me to go easy on you, perverted outer-space alien Master Usui."

Suzuna raised a brow at her uncharacteristic sister.

Satsuki's eyes gleamed as she clasped her hands together and emitted another flowery aura. Her mind was yelling "MOE! MOE!"

Usui grinned.

Misa coughed again. She blushed harder once she realized she was the reason for the awkward silence.

"Well, I need to do my job now." She declared, marching off to the staircase.

Usui followed her. Suzuna and Satsuki waited in silence.

Misa returned shortly with Usui.

"The rooms are that way, Misa-chan." Usui grinned at her, saying her name in a sing-song voice.

Misa glared. "Of course, Master Usui."

Suzuna giggled.


Usui paused in front of a door. Misa instantly knew it was his room.

He opened it. It was simpler than she expected. It was huge, of course, but there were only a few things inside. Only necessities.

She also noticed that instead of a bed, he had a couch.

The first thing she noticed though, was the great view. The windows were big and took up a whole wall. It showed a view of the city lights, and it was beautiful. It was night already, Misa had observed.

Usui smiled at Misa. She was amazed. Obviously.

"Like the view?" he asked her. She thought he was mocking her.

"Yes, Master." She replied heatedly. She was about to question the lack of furniture, but decided against it.

"Anyway," said Usui, opening a door "This is your room. It has smaller windows, but it has curtains. It has its own bathroom, and is fully furnished. At least, basic furniture."

Misa entered the room. It was nice, but uncomfortably large. The windows were half the size of Usui's, but they were still big. The curtains were green, and there was a bed, a table, a chair, a dresser, a wardrobe and the door leading to the bathroom.

Misa nodded. Oh well, it was liveable.

She turned around. Another thing she noticed was that it only had one door.

One entrance. One exit.

She cringed. "Master Usui," she began "There's only one door. How do I..." she paused, contemplating on her next words "Exit or enter without disturbing you?"

Usui raised a brow.

"Eh, you won't disturb me."

Misa's demon aura appeared.

Usui, as usual, was unfazed.

"What's wrong? Are you..." he approached her slowly, as if revealing a dark secret. He spoke quietly. "Are you embarrassed of entering my room alone?"

Misa's face heated up.

"Shut up, stupid perverted outer-space alien Master Usui!"

Usui laughed.

Really. Father's debt isn't worth all this.

"Oh, Master Usui, supper is ready." Called out a maid. Usui nodded and thanked the maid. He turned to Misa and smiled. She glared.

"Well, Misa-chan. Dinner is ready. Time to eat," He told her, exiting the room quietly, hands in his pockets. Misa sighed.

Dinnertime.

I didn't really like this chapter. Oh well, I didn't like how the first chapter came out either. So far, I only think the second chapter was presentable and good.

I'll try to make future chapters better, I promise. I already have things planned out, so I only have to write/type the upcoming chapters and edit/make them presentable as best as I can.

Anyway, tell me what you think. Was it worse than the first? Better? Intriguing? Uncharacteristic? Different? Nice? What else is there?

I love hearing from you guys. Every time I read a review, see someone adding this to their favorites/alerts list, or adding ME to their Author Alert list, I feel really happy. At least people like what I write, even though the first few chapters were 'rough around the edges'. Thank you everyone, you help me write these chapters. You give me inspiration, and accept me. That's all I want. People to enjoy what I write. Acceptance is another thing, and I like that too. What I like even more is when people TELL ME what they think.

Whether it's constructive criticism, a simple "Nice job. Update soon.", "I like this. Hope you write again soon.", or whatever, really makes me smile. I'm glad that some people even bother to review when they can just add it to their alert list and read it whenever a new chapter comes out.

Thanks all. Remember, R and R means 'Read and Review', not 'Read and Run'.
