Solars' P.O.V
Stupid sun, first thing in a morning, people would think I'm a vampire if they heard me hiss and see me cover my eyes. I groaned as I walked into the Academy ground, everyone was whispering, talking, and staring at me, don't they ever learn. The five Jackasses from a few nights ago came up to me, bandages around their stomachs I smirked.
"Yo little bratty poor bitch, it's gonna take a lot more than a stab to keep us down," their leader said, honestly I don't even know the guys names, but fuck it I don't give a shit.
"Yeah, well how about I slit your throats, will that give the message as to fuck off, you brought what I did on yourselves, so get out of my face," I said, I had forgotten to get my pocket knife this morning, no worries, I can make a weapon out of almost anything. I began walking again but the dick grabbed my hand, I saw his hand come flying at my stomach. I grabbed the knife in it and flung the twat over my shoulder; I walked over to him and held him up by the shoulder.
"You're gonna have to do a lot better than that," I said as I turned, I put the knife to the guys throat lightly cutting it, he whimpered in pain, "I've had much worse than what you could imagine so do not fuck with me, I can snap your neck like a twig," I said as I let him go, I really didn't feel like killing anyone. I walked into class to everyone whispering about me again, I shook my head as I took my seat, I felt horrible today, no not horrible about hurting that twat, just sick. I never felt sick though, so something was wrong with me; I shook it off as just the common cold.
The doors opened again as Hikaru, Kaoru and Haruhi walked into the class room, all three of them walked to the back and sat down, Haruhi smiled at me, I gave a weak smile in return.
"Good morning solar, how're you?" she asked, I groaned in return, "You don't sound so good," she said as she put her hand to my forehead, I shook it off, "Solar you're burning up, go to the nurse," she said, I shook my head again.
"I'm fine," I said, "Just didn't sleep well," I said again, but I knew I wasn't fine, I knew something was wrong with me, but honestly I didn't care, I just wanted to get through the day.
Class started a few minutes later as Hikaru cast worried glances at me, I shrugged them off and smiled at him as best I could, which wasn't very convincing, our teacher called me up to solve some math problem. I stood up, more like staggered, I didn't take even a step before I was falling to the ground, before I hit it I felt warm arms wrap around me, that was all I remember before going into complete darkness.
Hikarus' P.O.V
I wasn't an idiot, I saw Solar wasn't well, even Kaoru and Haruhi did, Haruhi also said she was burning up, but being the stubborn girl she is she refused to go to the nurse. We were about half way through class when our teacher called her up to do a math problem. I saw Solar stand, actually no scratch that, stagger up, but once she tried taking a step her eyes closed and she was falling to the ground. Panicking I stood quickly and caught her before she hit the ground, Kaoru and Haruhi looked at her worried, Solar was a brat yes, but we all cared about her. I look over to the teacher who was as shocked as the rest of us.
"Hikaru, please take her to the nurse, if the nurse says she has to go back to her school, then take her, I will talk to the head mistress about you missing a few classes," the teacher told me, I nodded as Haruhi handed me our stuff, I walked out of the door carrying Solar bridal style. Even if she did have a cold, this would be an advantage in our little bet. I shook my head getting rid of the thought right not Solar was more important.
I set Solar down on a bed in the nurses office, the nurse came out to take her temperature, sure enough she had a cold, frowning the nurse said she would need to be taken back to her school and looked after. I nodded as the nurse signed us both out of school, again I walked with Solar bridal style out of the Academy, the bell had rang, in other words, people were staring, the Host Club came running over.
"What happened to Sol-Chan?" Honey asked, I smiled softly.
"She'll be fine, it's just a cold, but she needs someone to look after her," I answered, they all nodded as I walked passed Kaoru I heard him snicker and saw him smirk.
"Don't do anything I wouldn't do," he said, my face went red as I turned to him, he only smiled innocently at me, I rolled my eyes and walked out of the Academy.
For the love of God, the High School's as bad as the Academy, people were staring again, I rolled my eyes again, this time Solars' friends came running over to me.
"What did you do?" I think it was Saki who asked that.
"If you've hurt her, I'll kill you," that one was Kona for sure.
"I'm sure she's fine guys," that was Fushito who asked that for sure.
"Onee-Chan," Neko said as she poked her, Solar stirred in my arms but didn't wake up, I smiled a little but frowned once her friends looked at me.
"She has a cold, that's all, she should be fine soon," I said to them, just then three boys came walking over, one of them I recognised from trying to fight Haruhi.
"What are you doing with my girlfriend?" Kimihiro asked, this caused him to get a punch across the face from Kona, I flinched at the sound.
"She aint you girlfriend so get that outta your head before I knock it out," she threatened, again I flinched.
"Whatever, anyway what are you doing with her?" he asked, his eyes easily saying 'it better be a good excuse'.
"I don't have to answer to you," I said to him, his face went from a calm expression to one of anger as he stepped forwards, his hand balled into a fist.
"Hit him, and I'll kill you," Solars' voice came; I looked down to see she had woken up, she looked up at me, I nodded and set her down on the ground but helped her stand.
"Give me a good reason why I shouldn't hit him," Kimihiro challenged, Solar gave him a death glare.
"Because you're gonna be dealing with me if you do," she said, I smiled a little a her, so she really did care.
"And if you've gotta deal with Solar, you're dealing with ALL of us," Kona said, Kimihiro grumbled before walking away with his friends, Kona smirked, "Loser," she said, the girls nodded their heads, a groan came from Solar again before she fainted again.
"Erm hate to interrupt, but dya think you could show me where her room is?" I asked them, Kona turned and nodded.
"Follow us," she said, I nodded and followed them.
After five minutes of walking we were outside Solars' room, Kona opened the door as I set Solar down on her bed, honestly I have no idea what to do in these situations, but I had a pretty good idea.
"Could one of you get some cold water and a cloth," I asked, Neko nodded and ran out the room, more like jumped, Kona turned to me.
"You have no idea what to do, do you?" she asked me, I shook my head, she sighed, "Alright," she turned to Fushito and Saki, "Saki go tell the principle that Solar's back but she's not well, Fushito go get some soup for her," she ordered, she turned back to me as I looked at her, "You're Hikaru right?" I nodded, "Keep the blankets on her and keep her warm, I'm going to get her some tablets, Neko will be the first back, followed by Saki, then Fushito then me," she said as she ran out the room, I stared at the blanket I had put on Solars' body, it was thin.
I searched around her room, until I came to her closet, at the top were three other blankets, thicker than the first, I pulled them out and put them over her, a muffled groan came from her, I sighed as I sat on her bed. Neko came bouncing into the room a few minutes later with water and a wet cloth; I took the cloth from her and put it on Solars' head. Next was Saki who walked in with a smile.
"Ok the Principle knows she's sick and that you'll be looking after her," she told me, I nodded my head as I looked out the window, people were arguing on the ground, it looked like a fight would break out any minute.
"Guys, we gotta go," Kona and Fushito came running into the room, Fushito placed the soup down on Solars' nightstand, Kona placed the tablets next to it.
"when she wakes up, give her two of them, a drink of water and then make her eat the soup, I wish we could stay longer to find out how she caught the cold, but there's a fight so we gotta break it up, bye Hikaru," Kona said as the four girls rushed out of the room, they seemed nicer than before, or were they just acting that way because Solar was like that. I shrugged the thought off as I looked back at her, her head plastered to her face with the sweat that was coming from her, I shook my head slightly and brushed the hair out of her face, she looked so peaceful.
I stood and sat down in a nearby chair Solar had, but not before I closed her curtains, the sun was blocked out once I did. I don't know how long I was sat in the chair, but I ended up falling asleep after a while.
When I woke up again, Solar was up and staring out the window, I smiled softly, I saw she had eaten the soup and took the tablets and had a drink.
"You shouldn't be up," I said to her, she turned to look at me; a smile graced her face softly.
"I'm fine don't worry, I feel much better," she said as she stood up from her windowsill, "But you my friend should get home, it's getting late," she said to me, I turned to look at the window, sure enough the sun was setting, I sighed.
"I can spear a few more minutes or so," I said to her, looking at her face I saw she had washed her foundation off, making the scar visible, but it was red, like it was burning, "What happened to your scar? It's red," I pointed out, Solar only shrugged.
"Took a shower," she said, I looked at her in disbelief, "Ok took a hot shower," she added, I stared at her still in a little confusion but them figured out what she meant.
"You shouldn't do that, it could injure your body," I said to her, Solar only shrugged at me.
"I've had worse," she said to me, I nodding knowing not to argue and that she was right.
"So you feel better," I said to her, she nodded, then turned to me.
"You should go, it's getting late," she said again, like she wanted me to go, her eyes wandered towards her guitar, then I realised why. Walking over I picked up her song book, she gave me a sceptical look but walked over to me.
"These are good," I said to her as I grabbed her guitar, her latest one wasn't finished get, "Play me one," I said to her, she shook her head.
"No my latest one is for a boy to sing," she said, I raised a brow and took the guitar from her.
"Ok then, I'll play it," I said to her, I began playing the guitar.
'Hanging out behind the club on the weekend
Acting stupid, getting drunk with my best friends
I couldn't wait for the summer and the Warped Tour
I remember it's the first time that I saw her thereShe's getting kicked out of school cause she's failing
I'm kind of nervous cause I think all her friends hate me
She's the one, she'll always be there
She took my hand and that made it I swearBecause I fell in love with the girl at the rock show
She said "what?" and I told her that I didn't know
She's so cool, I'm gonna sneak in through her window
Everything's better when she's around
I can't wait till her parents go out of town
I fell in love with the girl at the rock show'
"That's as far as I've got," Solar said to me, I looked at her then the book.
"You've got the notes, you just need the lyrics, how about…." I trailed off as I began singing again; Solar grabbed her book and began writing down the lyrics I was singing.
'When we said we were gonna move to Vegas
I remember the look her mother gave us
Seventeen without a purpose or direction
We don't owe anyone a fucking explanationI fell in love with the girl at the rock show
She said "what?" and I told her that I didn't know
She's so cool, I'm gonna sneak in through her window
Everything's better when she's around
I can't wait till her parents go out of town
I fell in love with the girl at the rock show'
Solar smiled at me, as she began singing again, this time a played as she wrote down the lyrics.
'Black and white picture of her on my wall
I waited for her call
She always kept me waiting
And if I ever got another chance
I'd still ask her to dance
Because she kept me waiting'
I shrugged as we both began singing the chorus again, a smiled played on both our faces.
'I fell in love with the girl at the rock show
She said "what?" and I told her that I didn't know
She's so cool, I'm gonna sneak in through her window
Everything's better when she's around

I fell in love with the girl at the rock showWith the girl at the rock show
With the girl at the rock show
(I'll never forget tonight) with the girl at the rock show'
Solar laughed as she sat down on her bed, I smiled as I remembered that her siblings said she may be a bit more open now.
"That was fun, you're good," she said to me, I smiled and bowed to her.
"Thank you," I said as I sat next to her, she looked at me then groaned as she layed back on the bed, I looked at her ni confusion before copying her, "What's up?" I asked her, her hands were over her eyes so I couldn't see what she was thinking, I trailed my fingers up her arms as I smiled innocently at her.
"You're winning this bet," she said to me, I smiled wider at her; she looked at me and glared but started laughing afterwards.
"I know, how about we just call it off, you stop swearing as much and being as bratty to people," I said to her, she sat up and looked at me.
"You think I'm bratty?" she asked me, I looked at her and saw the hurt in her eyes, I shouldn't have said that.
"No I didn't mean it like that," I said, or tried to as she got up and walked away from me.
"Get out," she said to me; I looked at her with hurt eyes.
"Solar I didn't mean it like that," I said to her, she whirled around to look at me, her eyes were full of hurt, anger and unshed tears, shit I really shouldn't have said that.
"Then what did you mean it like?" she asked me, I stood up as I walked towards her, she backed up towards the room.
"I don't know, I'm sorry," I said to her, she scoffed as she prevented herself from crying, something must have happened in her past to make her cry at being called 'bratty'.
Solars' P.O.V
"You're a bratty kid, nothing more, nothing less, you shouldn't be in this world," my mother yelled at me.
The minute Hikaru said that word, the image played in my head, I couldn't get it out no matter how hard I tried.
"Solar please, I'm sorry," he said to me, I didn't listen I was in my own world, I sank to the ground below me, the tears finally fell once I hit the ground, I heard footsteps come towards me, then I felt warm arms wrap around me.
"I'm sorry," Hikaru said again, I wanted to cry harder but I wouldn't, he pushed me away from his chest as he looked me in the eyes, "I'm sorry," he said again as he whipped the tears off my face, his eyes studied my features, it was then I knew he must have figured out it was something to do with my family. He hugged me again, I wanted to resist but my body wouldn't let me, his hug was warm, soft but it was also firm. I cried into his chest, we had had a run in with my mother only last night, that must be why the memories were coming back, that must be why I feel so emotional.
By the time I pushed Hikaru away the sun had completely set, the stars now lit up the sky, Hikaru smiled softly at me.
"Sorry," I said to him as I stood up, he only smiled at me more.
"It's fine, don't worry about it," why was he so forgiving? It kills me when people forgive me easily, but I let it slide, I smiled as I made my way over to the door, Hikaru followed as he opened it, I looked at him.
"I'll see you tomorrow," he said to me, I nodded my head, scared that if I spoke I would beg him to stay, I looked at the ground, but I could tell he was looking me up and down. His fingers rested under my chin as he pulled my head up, my eyes met his, he smiled slightly as he looked at me, I couldn't help but smiled back, he then pressed his lips onto my forehead before wishing me good night and leaving.
As I crawled into bed I knew that I would have a good dream, instead of the ones I normally have when memories come back, I knew this because I feel asleep with a smile on my face that night, not a frown.
Well that's chapter 10 done, cute no? Well I will be sending the Host Club on a trip soon; it will be like when they went to Okinawa, with a few twists, until then my readers, please REVIEW :D
