AN: *runs manically away from pissed off readers with torches and pitchforks* I'm sorry! Oh God, I'm freaking sorry guys! I have an acceptable reason why this update is so late. It's, well, because *starts sweating profusely* ..Life happened? Pretty acceptable, right? No?.. *gets poked by a pitchfork* Oh gosh, I'm here now, aren't I? Please don't poke me to death! Or light me on fire.

Anyhow, I hope you guys are still out there and would still try to read this update. I hope you would like this. So I kind of changed things with this one. I used a different POV (Natsuki's 2nd person POV or some shit like that). And well, in my absence, I believe I have improved my grammar a bit (I really hope so) so you guys wouldn't have to suffer to the previous shittyness of my sentence construction.

But if it still, like, bugs you the hell out, I would love to have a saviour aka a beta. So without any further ado...

Disclaimer: Uhm, is this still a thing?

Chapter 4

Gimme yo, gimme yo, gimme your attention baybeh-

"What the f-?" You sleepily mutter under your breath as you wrestle yourself out of your sleep induced state. You groggily sit up from your bed, your body previously buried under some pillows and your legs tangled in the maze that is your bedsheet. You yawn as you rub your eyes with your hand, still wondering why the hell are you awake cause it feels like you hardly slept at all.

I gotta tell you a little somethin' about yourself

You groan as you hear the damn music playing and you clumsily get up from the confines of your bed, searching for the source of the bloody song that's currently being played. "Who the hell set this song up as my alarm?!" You mutter between gritted teeth and hastely grabbed the thing that's been playing the darn song, which is your iPhone. Bruno fucking Mars? Really?

Suddenly, there's a knock and you turn your head to your closed bedroom door.

"Natsuki, are you awake? If you're not then you better have to wake up."

It's Reito.

"Yeah! Yeah, I'm awake." You holler back at him.

Then the door opens and your brother comes in. "Excellent! C'mon down and have some breakfast, it's your first day at school today, remember?" He says with that disarming smile of his.

"Wow, you sound like mom. Are you sure we're not biologically related?" You ask him lightly while getting some clothes out of your bags.

He laughs back at you and it's then that he knows you're actually fine now, after last night.

"Well, do you want me to let Nao fetch you instead?" You snort.

"No thanks. I'm pretty sure she's the one who set up my alarm this morning. I don't even like Bruno Mars."

"It was either that or she was gonna blast the chorus of wrecking ball right at your face with a baseball to your gut. Good thing I convinced her to just go with Bruno Mars."

Well that thought really would've disturbed you if it weren't for the actual fact that you actually know Nao. And she would definitely pull some shit like that at you. "That little minx. I'm gonna get some payback later."

"What? You're not even gonna thank me for convincing her otherwise?" He teases.

"Not really. But you totally should get me that breakfast." You tease him back.

He actually balks. "Why you ungrateful ass!" You laugh and quickly sprint to your en-suit bathroom, leaving him huffing.

"Whatever!" He shouts but you know he's actually smiling as you hear his footsteps going out of your room.

LINEBREAK

Dressed in a simple tight black v-neck shirt with a silver military tag necklace hanging from your slender neck and gray skinny jeans with a pair of faded red vans, you emerge at the dining room freshly showered and definitely ready for some of that blueberry pancakes. Those pizzas from last night are totally burned out of your system right now.

Nao looks up from her plate and looks at you with some pancakes stuffed at her mouth. You quickly steal the last piece of pancake on her plate and immediately stuff it down your mouth with one shove. This definitely tastes awesome, specially while looking at Nao's face completely in disbelief at the loss of her final precious piece of blueberry goodness.

"What the hell!"

"That was payback, biatch. You know I hate Bruno Mars!." And I know how much you love your blueberry and cheese pancakes. Heh, revenge is so sweet. Literally.

"Whatever. You're gonna pay for this Kuga." She tells you as she licks some sauce of her fingers.

"Gross."

"Your face is gross."

"So is your soul."

"Okay guys, that's enough. It's just morning. Sheesh. You just missed each other too much, didn't you?" Reito emerges from the living room. He pours himself some milk then drinks it and gets his car keys from the kitchen island.

"Yea, right. In her dreams." Nao retorts back smirking.

"In my dreams, I actually cut you and dye your hair green." You mock back as you grab your bag and quickly follow your bro out the house, leaving an indignant redhead screeching "You did not!"

LINEBREAK

The three of you settle at Reito's car as you get ready to head to Fuuka Academy. Apparently, your brother is the VP of the Student Council, so that's why you guys are heading to school earlier than you're used to. And, well, Reito didn't want you to be late cause it's your first day and all that drama. Sometimes, Reito is so just anal retentive. But then again, you aren't surprised because he did have to look after one Nao Yuuki. And now he has an additional Natsuki Kuga. Talk about child supervision.

"So, Nat, mom called me last night and said you can buy a car or whatever the hell you ride these days. But she wants me to make sure you look at 'other forms of transportation', her words not mine, before you resort to buying a 'monstrous bicycle', still her words." He tells you as he buckles his seatbelt and backs the car down to the driveway and onto the road.

You roll you eyes as you fix your own seatbelt, sitting shotgun this time. "Fine, it's not like she's forbidding me to buy a bike. Because that certainly would be a problem."

Reito chuckles. "Still fascinated with bikes, I see."

"Yeah, Natsuki really likes to ride on stuff, I bet." Nao slyly adds from the backseat.

You blush and almost choke on air because, what the fuck? Yeah, you totally get Nao's drift. "Not necessarily." You deadpan. "But I bet you like 'riding' much more than anyone in here Nao. I'm sure some guys at school could support that fact." You smirk back at her through the rearview mirror.

She huffs, "Whatever, you butch."

"Hey! Are you jibing at my sexuality? Not cool, Nao." Youre aware almost everybody in your circle of family and friends know you're not that straight.

Okay, so you're a lesbian, and honestly you really couldn't care less if someone didn't appreciate that.

But really, you appreciated it when your bro and your cousin supported you wholeheartedly when they knew. And it's kinda nice when they get all protective when someone homophobic disses you. Not that you can't handle it all by yourself because duh, you so totally can.

But at times like this, you really cannot appreciate Nao being comfortable with your own sexuality. Not cool. You can be feminine too, you just don't overdo it. Whatevs.

"Well, don't go prancing around my sexcapades." Nao retorted.

"Yeah, well you started it! And eww, sexcapades? What the fuck?"

Reito balks at the ongoing argument. "Oh good lord. Why am I the only man in here?" He shakes her head at the two while maneuvering the steering wheel.

"Natsuki's a man."

"Shut up, Yuuki!"

LINEBREAK

"We're here!" Reito exclaims as he straps off of his seat and goes out the car.

You follow his lead and get off from your seat, not before taking your messenger bag and gray beanie from the back seat. You see your cousin getting out as well, making sure to use the tinted car window as her mirror as she checks her hair and whatnot.

Such a girl.

Not that you're not a girl yourself, but you've never been the kind to be one of those girls. Those who would always check their face on a compact mirror after every end of a subject or those who would make sure their lips stays as red as a hooker.

Whatever. Your beauty is effortless, and that's what makes you all the more attractive to people. You don't have to try, you just do. You're really, like really, freaking charming and you don't even know it.

Fuuka Academy. Hmm.. It looks prestige and elegant from where you stand, at the school's parking lot, and you kinda, sorta like it. Woah there, never thought I'd actually admit to liking a freaking school. You were still scanning the sharp buildings of the academy when your brother started talking.

"So guys, I've gotta go. Got council duties to attend to." He runs his hand through his hair. "Nat, don't forget what I told you. Go directly to the-"

"Director's office. I know, Reito. You just reminded for like, the hundredth time." He chuckles at you in that brotherly way of his while he ruffles your hair.

"Hey! Quit it you ass!" You smack his hand away while he just laughs at you more.

"Nao, make sure Natsuki gets there, okay?" Nao just nods while checking her bag. "Okay, I'll see you guys here later, so I can drive us home." He looks at you two one last time and finally jogs down to a school building.

While watching Reito's disappearing form, you fix your long elegant hair and proceed to put on your beanie. "He seems to be in a hurry. I can't believe I'm with someone who's actually eager to go to school this early."

"Well, he is the Vice President of the student council, so." Nao shrugs, and you fall into step with her as the both of you walk to school. "And he probably wanted some morning smooch from his girlfriend to get his day goin'"

You start to notice students on their way as well to school, all wearing uniforms. Some orange in color, some in white, like your cousin's. "Girlfriend, huh? Didn't expect that." You say while you raise one eyebrow.

"Yeah, a hot piece of ass she is. Reito's one lucky dude. But then again, your brother's one as well. Match made in freaking heaven, they are."

"Well, I bet they're both freaking anal together."

Nao sniggers at your joke. "Totally. I mean, she IS the President of the council. But still, she's the finest gal I've ever seen." Nao suddenly balks, "Damn! Your lesbian is rubbing off on me."

You roll your eyes. "Wait, Reito's girlfriend is the Kaichou? What a cliche. " You start to feel more eyes on you. Sheesh, am I the only transferee they've seen their whole lives? Ugh.

Right. You're attractive and you don't even know it.

"Shit! I gotta go, Natsuki." Nao frantically tells you while looking at her phone.

"What?!" You exclaim back at her.

"My groupmates are pissed. They're threatening to kick me out of our group project if I don't show up today, fuck. I really gotta go."

"B-but.."

"Aw, don't be scared Kuga, its just school."

"I'm not!" You say as you bat Nao's hands away from pinching your cheeks. Geez, what's with people and their hands today? Trying to touch you before they actually run off.

Nao just laughs as she starts to back away. "Later, mutt!"

Ugh.

Whatever. You make your way inside the main building, you think, and go off to find the principal's, err, the director's office.

LINEBREAK

You've made your way inside the building and the eyes on you are increasing and getting more inquisitive and appreciative than you would care to admit. Fuck, quit with the staring already.

You just turned a corner when-

"Oof-!"

Your ass is suddenly on the pristine floor and it seems like you were swept off of your feet, and not in the good way.

Freaking hell.

You try to gather your thoughts and yourself.

"Oh my gosh!" You hear a voice.

You open your eyes and you see a mop of black hair trying to get off of your torso.

It's a kid.

"Oh god, I'm so sorry! Here, let me help you." The voice from earlier speaks to you again, you look towards it and you see a girl with bright orange hair reaching out to help you from the floor.

Woah, are those boobs for real?

You feel hands try to grab you at the arms and you instantly flinch off of it. "No thanks." You gruffly tell her.

She takes a step back and you see the kid who bulldozed you beside the taller girl. "I'm really sorry about that." She sincerely looks at you before quickly looking at the kid beside her. "Mikoto! Say sorry to her! Oh god." She exasperatedly told the kid who you supposes is Mikoto.

"Sorry." She meekly says to you.

"...yeah. Just don't, like, do it again." You say back coldly as you fix and put back your beanie and andjust your leather messenger bag slinged at your slim shoulder.

"Mai, I really gotta go! Bye!" Mikoto exclaims, more like whine, at the orange-haired girl as she quickly takes off. Mai, you believe her name is, just rolls her eyes at the girl who just left.

"I am really sorry for what happened. She's just so... Well, that's just how she is. So, forgive her for bumping at you like that." Bumping at me? That was certainly NOT a bump. Mai sheepishly apologizes at you.

You just mutter a 'whatever' before making your way again to find the director's office. Where the fuck is that? Its freaking dangerous out here.

You're about to take a turn again because you can still feel those eyes on you, sheesh this is stupid, I'm not a fucking magazine that they can stare at, but then the orange haired girl stepped in front of you and held her hand out. "So, I'm Mai. Mai Tokiha."

She smiles.

You look at the hand. Then you blink. "I didn't exactly ask." You coldly say back.

She's about to take a step closer but you roll you eyes at her and quickly turn the other 're about a few steps away when you hear her.

"Look, Bitchy McBitcherson, I don't know what your deal is. I mean, yeah my friend bumped your ass to the floor but we already apologized for it. You didn't have to act like a total mean jerk. I was only trying to help and be friendly but I guess you're much of an ass to appreciate that. But guess what? I don't care."

Silence.

The hallway just went quiet and you're still frozen on your position, standing.

And then you swiftly turn around to face Mai Tokiha.

You take the few steps to get to her, and when you were close enough, you looked her in the eyes and held out your hand. And then you smirk.

"Natsuki Kuga. Nice to meet you."

AN: I know, I know. I know I said that Shizuru and Natsuki would meet this chapter but guys, I had to put this out there first. Sorry? I'll make it up to you, promise. I'll update this weekend. :)

So, reviews are well appreciated. They're like, my medicine, and I'm severely ill so..

Feel free to say anything you want, I won't judge.

Oh who am I kidding, I will! Lol.

Peace out you boobies.
