Class Two: Meeting New People

Ameko stood at the front of the classroom next to the principal, Kondou Isami. He smiled reassuringly at her and then said to the class,

"Everybody, this is your new classmate. Please treat her well, okay?"

The whole class nodded a little, but the girls continued glaring at her. Ameko watched Kondou leave the classroom. Her teacher, Yamanami Keisuke, put a hand on her shoulder and suggested,

"Why don't you introduce yourself to the class?"

"Hai…um…My name's Yukita Ameko. Hajimemashite."

The class started whispering to each other, but they stopped when they heard Yamanami-sensei say,

"Why don't you go sit in the seat behind Saito-kun?"

Ameko nodded at him and walked to her seat. The whispering became louder. As she was walking, a girl stuck out her leg, but Ameko calmly stepped over her leg and gave her a quick smirk. Ameko sat down in her seat and sighed. She turned around and saw Okita grinning at her. Ameko smiled back at him and thought,

'At least I'm sitting near people that actually talked to me.'

Ameko scanned the classroom with her dark brown eyes and noticed two girls sitting next to each other giving her a friendly smile. Ameko smiled back at them.

'Maybe not all the girls are rude.'

She continued looking around the classroom and noticed a blonde-haired student surrounded by giggling girls. He glanced at her and turned back to face the front. He didn't seem to like the adoring…or more like annoying girls. Ameko leaned back in her seat and whispered to Okita,

"Hey…who's that guy over there?"

She pointed a slender finger at him. He heard Okita scoff and reply,

"That's Chikage Kazama. He's popular among the girls because he's rich…and he owns a host club in the school. He's mean though, so don't talk to him unless if it has something to do with money."

"Mean, huh?"

Ameko raised an eyebrow. She expected this school to be super special, but she didn't expect to meet so many interesting people. Ameko was snapped out of her thoughts when she heard the teacher say,

"Do you have anything to share with us, Ameko-chan?"

"Er…no, Yamanami-sensei."

"Good. Now pay attention, okay?"

Ameko nodded at him. Some of the girls were snickering, but she just ignored them. Hijikata, who was sitting next to her, leaned over and said,

"It's best not to get in trouble on the first day, Ame-chan."

"Yeah, I know."

Ameko smirked and thought,

'Meeting new people will sure be fun…'
