DISCLAIMER: I don't own La Corda or any of it's characters.
(Author's Note: I haven't been really clear on the pairings so far… Gomen! I can't seem to find a good place to interject a good place where the guys should realize that he loves Kaho… :P)
Len walked into his classroom scowling.
'Ugh. Who was that exchange student I had to escort? Sensei said I'd meet him here," thought Len.
Suddenly, (A/N: I think you've guessed who Len has to escort around already.) Niriya walked into the room.
"Ohayou everyone," said Niriyu pleasantly, "I'll be your classmate for the remainder of the school year."
Almost instantly a buzz was brought upon the schoolroom.
From girls was a, "He's so cute! I wonder if he's single."
From the guys was a, "Do you think he'll join the –insert sport name here- club?
From Len came slightly widened eyes, and then a death glare.
Niriyu walked over to Len and sat down.
"Kanazawa-sensei told me that you'd be escorting me to all my classes," said Niriyu, smiling a princely smile that was almost enough to rival Azuma's.
Len nodded mutely, keeping his eyes on the music score in front of him, staring at it as if it were the most important thing in the universe.
"Well then, I hope we will be able to get along," said Niriyu.
'You wish,' thought Len angrily, but instead of actually saying that, Len just sat mutely, looking up only when the teacher indicated that they needed to take notes.
*************
After class, as everyone was packing up, a bunch of girls walked up to Niryu and asked, "Excuse me, Mantako-kun?"
"Mm?," he said, smiling up at them.
"Mantako-kun, are you dating anyone," asked a brown haired girl.
"Oh. Iie, gomen," said Niriyu, smiling apologetically.
This response caused Len to look up in shock.
"I'm actually in a relationship with Kahoko Hino in the General Education Department," he said smugly.
Len clenched his hand behind his violin case.
'This guy is so inconsiderate of others! What does he think the girls are going to do to Kaho because he's spouting lies? Of course they're going to treat her with contempt," thought Len angrily.
Len looked at Niriyu and said, "Why are you lying, Niriyu? Kaho-san told me herself that she has nothing to do with you."
Niriyu's eyes widened in shock.
"Oh, you talk to me now, eh?," he said sadistically, "I get it now, you're jealous that I got to her before you did."
"Excuse me? Could you repeat that," growled Len, taking a step towards Niriyu angrily, his fist clenched at his side.
"Oh, now you're deaf as well? Such a tragic tale," mocked Niriyu.
Suddenly, Len's eyes widened, and he turned away from Niriyu, grabbed his violin case and his school books, and walked away.
"Walking away from a fight, now are we," teased Niriyu.
"Iie," said Len, "I just recalled Kaho-san telling me earlier that she didn't want me wasting my time on the likes of you."
With that, he turned on his heel and walked out the door to his next class.
(A/N: Sorry! I know it's a short chapter! : ( I'll try to update again soon!)
