Daisuke was vaguely aware of someone taking a seat next to him. Someone had most probably been sent out from another classroom and had been placed in this one as punishment. The new kid would probably choose to sit next to that awful bitch Risa. Shifting his head, he focused back onto his music. He didn't realise that he was wrong about his new neighbour.
Dark however, was more interested in his new partner and was eyeing him carefully. The first thing he had noticed was the almost scarlet hair, which had turned out to be natural as dark couldn't spot any darker or lighter colours at the boy's roots. Another thing he noticed was the boys attire. Shockingly, it wasn't that much different from his own. It consisted of a pair of jet black skinny jeans except that Dark's had a variety of chains and belts. The boy wore a dark black top with red patches on the arms. Turns out that it was a tour t-shirt as it had MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE scrawled on the back as well as a list of dates and arenas. Finally, long black gloves adorned a pair of arms and a few bracelets were scattered along his wrists. His face, however. Dark couldn't see because it was buried in some arms.
Mrs Towa/Freedert called to the class to announce the first lesson had begun. Everyone began pulling their books out and even the redhead had bent down to retrieve his. Dark decided that he should follow and reached for his bag. After retrieving his books, Dark laid them out on the desk and stared at the chalkboard on which, teacher was writing away. Looking around at his fellow students, he was aware of the fact that they were writing stuff down diligently. Unfortunately for him, he didnt understand the japanese text either. Shuffling akwardly he continued to watch the board. The word kept gathering and began to panic. Aw man! What if this is revision for a major exam or something?
"You know, it's common courtesy to learn another countries language before you enter a school there." Dark turned to the source of the voice with a surprised look. The young boy next to him was giving him a blank look. The boy's face was cute Cute? Where did that come from? A rounded face was turned towards him. The features were what you could find on an average boys face. One thing however stood out and made that face all the more appealing. Huge garnet eyes accompanied by long eyelashes. These were pointed at dark and he noticed a thin layer of jet black kohl made the red of the boys even more striking. Dark sharply shook himself out of this little reverie and replied indignantly.
"Well excuse me," He muttered, as not to attract the teachers attention," i didn't have much time to learn the language bef—wait, you know english?" he asked, astonished.
"Obviously." The red head stated before turning back to his work without another word. Dark however, continued to pester him.
"If you know english, could you please give me a little help? You know... show me what needs to be written down?" he asked in a persuasive manner. The boy just shrugged and continued with his work. "Please?" He asked shuffling closer. The boy just slid away. Sighing in defeat, he slumped in his chair. "You could at least tell me your name..." he grumbled.
After he had moved away, Daisuke had expected the new kid to shut up and leave him alone. He was surprised when on the contrary to what he expected, the purple haired teen asked him his name. Sighing lightly he leant over jotted a few things in the teens book. Once he finished he returned to his own studies.
"that should do you until next lesson." He muttered pulling a page from his book. "Here." He handed it to the other student. He turned away before a light blush, cused by the smile that the taller one had given him. Damn fool. He just smiled, it was nothing. He'll be just like the rest of them. Don't trust him.
Dark looked at the paper the red head had given him. The ruby eyed boy had given him a katakana table with the English translations next to it. He flashed a genuine smile at the boy in thanks, but rather than the boy acknowledging him with a smile, why does that seem unlikely? Dark received a sharp, mistrusting look before the redhead turned away stonily. What on earth was that!? He questioned himself with a frown.
The rest of the lesson was spent in the silence of them both. Daisuke refused to meet darks eyes no matter how hard the dark haired one tried. As for the rest of the day, Daisuke was unlucky enough to have the boy in all his classes.
At 5:30 the finishing bell rang throughout the large stone building, resonating loudly. As the students began to pack up, Dark turned to the ruby eyed boy.
"I guess I'll be seeing you tomorrow?" he inquired smoothly. The subject of his questioning looked up slightly. He seemed to hesitate before answering quietly.
"Yeah, see you tomorrow." With that said, he picked up his bag and walked off, only for dark to catch up with him.
"Hey, you've been down all day. Rough day or are you always like this....err... you still haven't told me your name y'know." He really wanted to know why this boy was like this when no one else was. Also, the boy was the only one who spoke English fluently. He locked eyes with the boy, asking for an answer gently but not quite demanding one either. Yet again he saw that mistrustful look in the boys red orbs but it seemed to waver as if in indecision. The boy looked away and began walking again. Dark looked on disappointed until the boy turned around. "Well? Are you coming?" something leapt in darks chest as the boy gave something close to a small smile. He trotted up to him. "And my name is Daisuke Niwa by the way." He said before falling silent again.
The walk out of school was rather pleasant even though no words were spoken. Dark ignored the stares he got from all the girls they passed. Instead, he occupied himself with his thoughts. Daisuke sure was different from what he was used to. Usually, people worshipped, stalked him or just plain gawked at him. This boy however, just acted as if he wasn't there. It was quite odd to be on the end of this. Especially if your the one who usually does the ignoring. Daisuke was ignoring him now! Look!
Eventually, all that was left around the pair was country-ish lanes lined with trees and bushes. The street was lined with a few huge houses all of which were mainly hidden by trees and such. He heard daisuke stop next to him and he turned and looked. He was standing at a huge wrought iron gate with a huge padlock. Glancing back at Daisuke, he noticed that he was pulling something from around his neck. A Key!
"you live here?" He asked with an incredulous look on his face. Daisuke just looked at him and nodded before opening the gate. Getting over his shock, Dark coughed and straightened up. "Well, i'll see you tomorrow then Daisuke!" He grinned happily. Twitching slightly at the familiar term this boy was using on him. He nodded.
"Practice those katakana...it'll help if you do." He said quietly before bowing and disappearing behind the gate with a clang. Dark was left in the darkening street watching the lights of the huge (well, what he could see of it) house flash on. He span on the spot and continued his journey up the road. He still had about an hours walk before he reached HIS destination. Smiling slightly, he looked up at the sky as the stars began to appear one by one.
Maybe it would be different this time. Maybe he really would find what he was looking for.
