Hikaru
"And, go!" my P.E. teacher—Mr. Quinn—shouted.
Ryuto and I took off at the starting line on the asphalt running track. Today, in P.E., we were being timed on the mile run—while the rest of our classmates including all the guys from our lunch table watched us. My twin and I kept up a fast pace, taking long strides. Even though I had shorter legs than Ryuto, I was still able to keep up.
"Looks like you got a cheerleader, Hikaru," Ryuto said as we completed lap one out of four.
I turned my head towards the stands to see Feliciano jumping up and down yelling my name. I waved to him and he waved back wildly. Then Feliciano pulled up Ludwig and made him waved, too, but Ludwig shouted something at him so Feliciano let go. Ludwig pushed back a few strands of blonde hair that got loose and I watched him, he caught sight of me.
I turned by head away quickly and sprinted forward, finishing my mile in a total of seven minutes.
"You two were so amazing!" Feliciano cried as Ryuto and I drank water.
"Amazing," I repeated, slouching against the stands.
"Okay, guys!" Mr. Quinn shouted. "Pair up with someone and start playing one-on-one basketball with them!"
Immediately, I reached for my twin but Mr. Quinn stopped us. "Oh, I'm assigning partners," he said. "Ryuto, you're with Natalia and Hikaru, you're with Ludwig."
Ryuto looked like he was about to die as a girl who had the same features as Ivan Braginski pulled him away. I cursed silently and walked up to Ludwig, picking up a basketball on my way to him. I passed the ball to Ludwig.
He bounced it once and tossed it into the hoop. I watched as he then picked it up again and turned to me. "Well?" he asked in his German accent. "Are we going to play or what?"
I nodded and he passed the ball to me. "Just to let you know," I said, "I won't go easy on you."
Ludwig smiled. "Fine then," he said. "I accept your challenge."
Our game began with him stealing the ball from me. Soon enough, we were tied by seven points but before one of us could score another point, Mr. Quinn called us in to go change.
"Damn," I wheezed, clinging onto my twin's shirt sleeve. "He's so…he's so…"
"Hot?" Ryuto suggested and I blushed furiously. "Come on, I know you're thinking it."
"I am not!" I felt my face become redder. "Ugh, whatever, Ryuto," I said, pushing the girl's locker room door open. I entered into the locker room to find Natalia and Lily—the two girls who supposedly like my twin—and a few other girls changing back into their uniforms. I started changing out of my P.E. clothes when Natalia came up to me.
"You," she said as I folded up my tee-shirt. "You're Ryuto's twin right?"
I froze, standing there in my shorts and tank top. "This is awkward," I said. "But, yes. I am his twin."
"Good, I want you to become my friend. I need to get close to him."
I gawked at her. What the hell was she saying? Ryuto and I only have been here a day and this girl was… I rushed to put on my uniform and grabbed my bag as the last bell of the day rang. "You see, uh, Natalia," I said hesitantly. "I really don't decide who my brother has a crush on or who he goes out with. I think you should bring it up with him." I backed off quickly because she seriously looked like she going to pull a knife on me. "I'm sorry," I apologized. "I'll talk to him if you want me to." I gave a shaky smile and ran out of the changing room.
"What took you so long?" Ryuto asked me as we ran to the front of the school.
"I'll tell you later," I said as the guys from the lunch tables appeared around the corner.
"Tell him what later?" Gilbert asked with an idiot grin on his face.
"Nothing." Behind the guys, a car pulled up with Auntie in the driver's seat. "We have to go," I said. "We'll see you tomorrow, right?"
"Right," Feliciano said, giving me a hug.
I patted him on the back awkwardly and said goodbye to the others. As Ryuto said his goodbyes, Auntie opened up the backseat door for me.
"Is one of those boys your boyfriend, Hikaru-san?" Auntie asked me.
I glanced behind me and by chance, I caught Ludwig's eyes. "No," I said, feeling my face burn as I scooted to the other side of the backseat.
Auntie ruffled Ryuto's hair as he got in and closed the behind him. When she got in the driver's seat, she started the car and drove off towards home. The first day of school was finally over.
A Note from your Author:
In this chapter I sort of BSed it because I really wanted to get to the main storyline which is something I will not tell you as the readers (*-`ω´- )人 On another note, I finally uploaded it after soo many day! By the way, the teachers at Gakuen Academy aren't countries. I made every country a student so the teachers are just some other characters that I based off my current/previous teachers. Enjoy it until I write the rest! (^_-)
