"Yume! Yume, It's okay!" Miku tried to comfort her friend.

Yume was crying face-down into her pillow.

"It is-NOT! H-he just-STARED at me!" Yume stuttered between sobs.

Miku sighed, she better just leave her to her tears for a while. Miku decided to go for a walk for a few minutes to let Yume calm down.

Miku was walking through the common room, when she saw a small person spying on her from the other side of a couch. Miku kept walking, she wanted to check out the park next to the school.

"Hey! Hey you! with the teal twin-tails!"

Miku turned just as she was reaching the door. "Me?" She said spotting the girl who had been spying on her running towards her.

"Yes you silly! Do you see anyone else with hair like yours around here?" The girl said cheerfully, long shiny red hair swaying.

Miku laughed. "Nope. What's up? I'm Miku, by the way." Miku extended her hand towards the girl.

The redhead shook the extended hand.

"I'm Kikuchi! Nice to meet you!" She winked at Miku. "You're friends with that curly headed girl I saw you with right?" Kikuchi asked head tilting cutely.

"Yeah, we are rooming together too," Miku said smiling. "Why?"

"Well I just wanted you to know, I saw that girl run back upstairs crying," Kikuchi said.

"Yume," Miku said.

"Yeah, her. Anyway, she-Yume, I mean-didn't do anything wrong. Leon does that to everybody." Kikuchi said, "We were in the same school back home, and he just looks like that pretty much all the time. She should just keep trying to be friends with him; He'll come around eventually, and he, believe it or not, is really funny when you get to know him. Just be careful with your snack stash, he will eat it all given the chance."

Miku wasn't sure what to say, all this coming from someone who looked like a first-grader...

"I know what you're thinking, because everyone does. I am NOT a first-grader! I am twelve." Kikuchi stated matter-of-factly. Grinning widely, she said, "See you around!" And scampered off, red hair flying behind her.

Miku chuckled, "I guess I should go back up and talk to Yume…" She mumbled to herself.


"Really?" Yume sniffled.

"Yep, a girl that knows him from school back where they're from told me." Miku said patting Yume on the back.

Yume hiccupped, and blew her nose loudly on a tissue. "Well, I guess I should go find him then!"

Yume jumped off her bed and ran out the door before Miku could stop her.

"Well, I hope that goes well…" Miku said to herself.


Miku finally made it over to the park, but she knew she couldn't stay too long - it was almost dark. She started walking through the park, it really was quite nice; there were lots of trees and flowers around, and the occasional bench along the micro-gravel pathway.

Miku started singing, softly at first, then bursting into a love song with a beautifully low melody.

She kept walking along the path, looking around the park as she went. She slowed down as neared the end of the song, and stopped with her head down and her hand on her heart when it ended.

"That was beautiful!" Said a male voice behind her.

Miku turned abruptly. She didn't mind that someone heard her, she was just startled. When she turned around, the first thing she saw were his eyes. Big and very blue. And his hair was the same shade. It was Kaito.

"Thanks," Miku said, suddenly shy.

"I'm Kaito, by the way," He said extending his hand.

"Hatsune Miku," She said shaking the extended hand. "I just started at the Academy."

"Great! You should do really well, your singing is incredible." Kaito stated, with utmost sincerity.

Miku blushed a little. She hoped it was too dark for him to see it.

"It's getting pretty dark, can I walk you back to the dormitory?" Kaito asked charmingly.

"Yea-yes, thank you." Miku said sweetly.

They walked back to the dorm chatting about music, Miku still a bit shy.

They reached the door in the common room that led to the girls wing, and Kaito stopped.

"Well here you are, see you in class?" Kaito asked.

"Yes, definitely. And, thanks, for walking me back." Miku said sweetly.

"No problem. Goodnight." Kaito smiled and walked towards the door to the boy's wing on the other side of the common room.

Miku walked back to her room in a daze. Yume was sitting on her bed when Miku walked in the door.

"What's up?!" Yume asked in surprise, Miku rarely looked dazed.

Miku slowly walked over to her bed and fell onto her back.

Miku sighed, "I met Kaito…"

Yume gasped, "What?! Where! What did you do? Did you talk to him? Did he talk to you?!"

Miku stared at the ceiling. "I went to the park, you know, the one at the edge of the school grounds? I was just walking along singing… And then he told me my singing was incredible. Then he walked me back to the dorm."

"Just like that? That's ALL that happened?" Yume was obviously waiting for something a bit more dramatic.

Miku rolled onto her side to look at Yume. "His eyes are incredible! Deep and blue and gorgeous…" She fell onto her back once more.

"Well, you never know, maybe you'll have a class with him." Yume winked.

Miku sighed, and stumbled into her pajamas, a teal tank top and black shorts. Then she just fell into her bed and fell asleep.

"Someone was tired!" Yume chuckled to herself. I didn't even tell her about Leon…


It was Monday morning and Miku was jogging over to her next class, The Art of Mixing Music, when she heard a familiar voice.

"Hey Miku!" Kaito jogged up to her.

"Hi Kaito!" Miku said grinning.

"What class do you have next?" Kaito asked.

"The Art of Mixing Music," Miku said. "You?"

"Same. Can I sit with you? He asked innocently as they neared the classroom.

"Sure," Miku said blushing slightly.

They entered class, and sat near the front of the room.

Class had been in session for ten minutes already, when in comes Chiharo, "Sorry, sorry I couldn't find my book!" She called out as she rushed to her seat.

She plopped down in a seat next to Leon. "Umm, Why aren't you wearing any shoes?!" She said looking down at his feet.

"My definition of 'casual wear' means no shoes." He stated and then turned back to the professor.

"Uh-huh." Chiharo said, clearly weirded out.

Class went on for another forty-five minutes or so, then the bell rang and the kids were racing off to the next class.


Miku was intently doing homework in the common room, when she felt someone sit on the couch next to her.

"Whatcha workin' on?" Kaito's voice said next to her.

"'Mixing' homework," Miku said pursing her lips and scrunching her nose, while holding a pad of paper closer to her face.

"What's the matter?" Kaito said chuckling as he pulled some homework out of his backpack.

"What is EMI again?" Miku said banging her head with her note book. "I am supposed to define all these terms, but I don't have a book for this class yet…" Her voice was slightly muffled, she still had her paper pad against her face.

Kaito pulled the pad away from her face, his own face not far from Miku's.

"Electro-Magnetic Interference," he said grinning.

"What is so funny?" Miku asked blushing.

"I just find you… Refreshingly 'real'" He said. "Most girls just act weird whenever they are around me; you seem pretty normal. In a good way though." Kaito said smiling.

"Thanks, I think…" Miku said quietly.

"Hey, are you going to the concert tomorrow?" Kaito asked.

"I hadn't really thought about it yet," Miku said, looking down at the floor, her voice still quiet.

"Well I was going to go, and I was wondering if you would come with me?" He rolled off of the couch, and laid down where she was staring at the floor, a grin on his face.

Miku smiled, "yeah-yes I'll go with you," she said nudging him with her foot, giggling.

Kaito curled up in ball, groaning like she had actually kicked him hard in the gut.

They goofed off for a while, not getting any homework done; When they heard a childish giggle.

"Looks like Miku got herself a boyfriend!" Someone said in a sing-song voice.

Miku blushed furiously, "Kikuchi! It's not like that!" She stood up and collected her things.

Kikuchi giggled again, and whistled before running off.

"I-I have to go." Miku said rushing off.

"Miku, wait!" Kaito called, getting up and jogging after her. "What's the matter Miku?" He said blocking the entrance to the girls dorm.

"N-nothing, I just-" She sighed. "I guess I'm not used to people teasing and 'pairing' me up with boys."

"What, nobody liked you at your old school?" Kaito asked softly.

"No, no I just never really had any 'guy' friends I hung out with, I spent all my time hanging out with Yume. She's been my best friend since pre-K, and we spent most of our time going to dance and voice lessons together, or doing homework…"

"Well, I don't mind being 'paired up' with you." Kaito said grinning, "I could think of quite a few worse things." He laughed and before Miku could say anything, he ran off to his dorm.

Miku giggled, she really did like that boy. She walked up to her room, where Yume was already sleeping soundly, in her multi-colored mustache pj's.

Miku quietly got ready for bed, and as she drifted off to sleep she realized she didn't even remember what the concert tomorrow was... Hmm…
