"Did you unpack all your things, Zoe?" Mrs Orimoto asked her seventeen years-old daughter.
"Yes mom. Everything is in the right place..." The blond girl answered annoyed.
The Orimoto family moved to Shibuya this weekend. Because of the fathers job, they had to move often. That was really hard for Zoe. Everytime she had to leave her new friends. But this time was different.
"Mom, I'm tired to change the city again and again." Zoe said to her mother and threw herself on her new bed.
"I know, honey. But this time, we will definitely stay here. I promise." Her father walked into the room and told her.
"Right, Zoe we have to tell you something..." Her mother said, while looking happily at her.
"Sure, what is it?" Zoe asked and looked at her parents.
"I'm pregnant. You will get a baby brother or sister." Her mother said with a huge grin formed on her face.
"Noooo way! Really?" Zoe couldn't believe it.
"Yes!" Her father replied and put an arm around his woman.
"Oh gosh! I'm so happy, I can't wait for it!" Zoe said and jumped up and down excitedly.
"Yeah, and tomorrow starts your school." Her mother told her. Zoe immediatly stopped jumping, when she heard the word 'school'.
"That's so not a good information." She replied and sat back on her bed.
"Come on, it's not that bad. You will have fun and find new friends. Don't worry." Her mother tried to cheer her up.
"I'm not worrying about that. I'm afraid of the teachers and I don't want to learn and do homework." Zoe sighed.
"You will survive." Her father said and the couple walked out of the room.
I hope there aren't these annoying guys like always. I'm annoyed of the whole flirting, they just want to get in my pants. I need an idea to get rid of them, Zoe thought to herself.

"Mom, I'm gonna check out the mall, I'm back at dinner." Zoe yelled as she was ready to go out.
"Are you sure you will find the way?" Zoe's mother asked unsure to let her out, all alone.
"Of course, it's not that far away from here. I saw it earlier." Zoe replied.
"Okay, but be careful!" Her mother told her.
"Yes! Bye, love ya!" Zoe said and went out.
It took her about 15 minutes to get to the mall, but it was totally worth it. The mall was huge, a paradise for girls like her. She went in and saw a lot of shops and her favorite boutiques.
She looked through one store window, it had many sings, which read 'Sale'.
"I should go in there, since I didn't take alot money with me." Zoe said and entered the store.
Many girls were there and fighted for the cheap clothes. Zoe did never saw something like that in her life. The girls were kicking and screaming for the clothes. She saw two girls pulling on one top and it tore in two pieces. Both looked angry at each other and searched for a new one.
"Weird..." Zoe whispered to herself.
Zoe walked through the store for about 30 minutes now and she didn't found a single thing. But then she walked over to a desk, where a cute top layed on. She picked it up and looked at it. It was really cute for her, she wanted to buy it. But suddenly another girl grabbed the top and pulled on it.
"Give it to me!" The strange girl shouted.
"No, I got it first!" Zoe yelled back.
Now she was like all the other freaky girls in the store. Argueing over a cheap top. They kept pulling the top, till Zoe gave up.
"Ugh, you can have it." She mumbled and the girl walked away happily.
"Fine and what should I wear? I mean, I can't wear boy's clothes." Zoe said to herself. Then came the idea.
She was annoyed of the boys, who flirt with her because she's so hot. But what if they think, that she is a boy too? Zoe thought about it and went over to the men's section. The outfit has to be convincing.

Zoe kept her promise and was back at dinner time. Her parents were already sitting on the table in the kitchen, when she came home. She went straight to the kitchen, because she was starving.
"And honey, how was it going? Did you find something?" Her mother asked as she gave her a plate with food on it.
"Well, nothing special." She lied. She did buy some boy's clothes, but she didn't want to tell her parents. They would probably think, that she's crazy.
"Okay, but remember. You have to wake up early tomorrow for school." Zoe's mother reminded her.
"Yes mom, I know." Zoe answered and ate her food.

Beep Beep!
The sound of the alarm clock woke Zoe up. Annoyed and tired, she hit the alarm clock.
"Most annoying sound in the world." She mumbled and stood up from the bed. Tiredly she walked over to her dresser and chose some clothes.
After she did that, she went downstairs to get breakfast. Her father already left for work.
"Hey sweetie, I'm gonna leave now. Have fun on your first day." Her mother said and kissed her on the forehead. Then she took the keys and went out.
Zoe waited till her mother drove the car out of the driveway and left for work. Then she went back to her room and changed her clothes. She wore black jeans, a yellow T-shirt and over it a red sweater. She hide her golden blond hair in a red cap. The result was surprising. She really looked like a boy. But now, she really had to leave for school. She quickly put her sneakers on and left.

Zoe walked into her new school completely disoriented. She looked at the piece of paper in her hand, her locker was number '504'. But the problem was, where is it?
She didn't look where she was going and soon she bumped into someone. She fell on the ground and the other boy also.
"S-Sorry!" Zoe said and dusguised her voice, more like a boy's one.
"No problem." The boy said and stood up. He had messy brown hair and hazel-nut brown eyes. He looks kinda cute for Zoe. But she couldn't think about him any further, because her hair was about to fall out.
She quickly went into the girl's bathroom. Second later, screaming and shouting was heared from there. Zoe totally forgot that she looked like a boy and had to use the boy's bathroom.

'Room 213, room 213, where the hell is that? Ah, there it is...'
She opened the door and everyone looked at her. The teacher wasn't there yet, good for Zoe. She went over to an empty seat and sat down silently.
Suddenly the boy from earlier came over to her.
"Hey, you are that dude that bumped into me." He said and grinned.
"Uh-Yes, sorry for that." Zoe replied and blushed a bit.
"No problem. But hey, do you want to hang out with us in the break?" He asked.
"Of course... Dude." Zoe tried her best to sound like a boy.
"Great! By the way, my name is Takuya." Takuya said.
'Takuya? Even his name is cute... Wait, I'm a boy, I'm not allowed to have gay thoughts...'
"What's your name?" He questioned and brought Zoe back to reality.
'My name? I can't say that my name is Zoe! Shit, I didn't thought about that.'
"Umm... My name is... Mike, yes Mike!" She said as she found a fitting name.
"Great Mike, see ya later at lunch time!" Takuya said and took a seat behind her.
'Woah, that was close!'
The teacher came in and she had to introduce herself.
"This is Z-" The teacher started. but Zoe cut her off.
"I like to be called Mike." She told her.
"Mike? Really? Why that?" The teacher asked her.
"Ummm... I just want that." She replied nervously.
"Okay... This is MIKE Orimoto, a new student." The teacher continued what she was going to say.

"This are Kouji and his twin brother Kouichi. And he is JP and the little kid is Tommy. The others will come later." Takuya introduced Zoe to his friends at lunch break.
"Nice to meet you, guys." Zoe said and tried to be cool. But in the inside she was excited like hell.
"Nice to meet you too." Kouichi answered.
"So, do you want to come over at my house today, Mike? The others are coming too. We are just playing on the Playstation or soccer." Takuya asked her.
"Of course." She replied and took a seat next to Tommy.
"Great, here is my address." Takuya handed her his address.
"Thanks, I'll be there at...?"
"At afternoon." Takuya finished her sentence.

Zoe was at home and changed into her normal clothes, because her parents would be back for lunch.
"Hey, how was your first day, honey?" Zoe's father asked her.
"Fine, I'm going to a friends house at noon." She told them. They were happy for her, that she found new friends so quickly.
"Okay, but be back for dinner." My mother said and I nodded.
I hope we won't be playing soccer, I will fail at that!
