"Nice to meet you echizen-san ! I hope we can get along well !" Takanishi said to me while having a wide smile on her face . What ?get along with me ? I doubt you will want to be near me after you hear the rumors .Well , not like it matters anyways , I never trusted anyone , especially girls . The teacher then came in with a box in his hands .

"Okay class settle down . we are now going plan the seating arrangement. Just take a number from this box and sit according to the plan that I will be drawing on the board ." The teacher then turned around and drew boxes on the board with random numbers written on it . Changing classes is already tiring enough , why the hell must this school plan our seating as well ? Well , I know its because we have a different class and different classmates but , really , I think came to the wrong school .

"Huh ?! Seating plan ?!"

"why can't we sit at our own desired places ?!"

"I hope I don't end up sitting beside that guy !"

"Yeah , whoever sits next to him , is sure unlucky !"

I knew it .. I was expecting this to happen . Even though they say 'that guy' and 'him' , I knew that it was me . It's so obvious , they are such stupid people , just say my name if you want to gossip about me . No one went up to the box to take a number as they were frightened that they would be placed next to me . Well , I have no choice do I ? I went over to grab a number . '7' was written on the piece of small paper . 7.. I looked up at the board and went over to my seat, near the window at the end of the class . I sat down and lean back against the chair . Whispers soon filled the class .

"7 !"

"I hope I don't get the number 13 , that's next to him ."

"yeah whoever get's 13 is sure unlucky.."

Its just a damn seating arrangement , don't think your the only ones who don't want to sit next to me because I don't want to sit next to you all too .How childish .I closed my eyes and sighed to myself , then the class was gasping .I opened my eyes and saw that they were looking right at sakuno , no , I should call her ryuzaki-san .

"Ryuzaki-san .. your number 13 .." one of the girls said .

No way , she's sitting next to me ? I rather die than to sit next to her . I don't want anything to do with her . Not anymore , I rather sit next to oskada than her !

"Sakuno , your sitting next to him , what are you going to do ?!" Osakada shot a glare at me and then looked worriedly at ryuzaki-san. Ryuzaki-san looked like she was about to cry , oh please , I don't want to sit next to you too , I should be the one wanting to cry .

"Ryuzaki-san !" a shout came from across the classroom . My eyes turned to one corner of the room and I saw takanishi-san walk towards where osakada and ryuzaki were standing .

"If you'd like , you could changed numbers with me . I don't like sitting in front and I don't really mind sitting next to echizen-san ."

"Huh ? B-but ..is it okay ?"

"Its fine !"

"But chiyo , you will be sitting next to the jerk !" Osakada raised her voice .. why is she always shouting ? Sigh , this class sitting arrangement is starting to get on my nerves , why can't they just hurry up and get this over with .

"huh ? What jerk ? I'm only going to be sitting next to echizen-san " takanishi-san said and then she took her bag and went over to the table next to mine and sat down . She turned to smile at me but I ignored her and turned away from her and looked out the window .She must be crazy to want to sit next to me the 'jerk' .Well at least that's settled .

"Echizen-san , why are you always so quiet ?" Takanishi-san suddenly spoke to me . I turned to look at her standing beside my desk . I ignored her as usual and took out my note book and started read through it for the next lesson .She sat down at her desk and continued to prompt me to answer her or reply her . Ah she's just so annoying ! Why won't she just leave me alone ? I take back my words , I rather sit beside anyone but her , at least they'll leave me alone . But her ? She just wouldn't stop talking to me . What's with her anyways ? Doesn't she knows that i'm the 'jerk' of the school or rather i'm known as the 'jerk' of the school for 'cheating' on my girlfriend and 'betraying' my best friend ?So why is she being nice to me ?! Why is she talking to me like all that's never happened ?! The teacher of the next period finally came in . At last ! Some peace and quiet ! And the lesson was english . Argh why must it be english ?! It's such a boring subject . I took out my textbook and flip through the pages that the teacher told us to .

"ahh , I forgot to bring my textbook .."

I looked at the person beside me that was looking through her bag for her english textbook. She then looked up at me and I averted my gaze from her to avoid any eye contact .

"echizen-san , can I share the textbook with you ?" takanishi-san said . The class heard what she said and they were shocked by it .

"CHIYO ! I can lend you mine and share with sakuno !" osakada shouted across the classroom . The others were agreeing with her and nodding their heads . What is she ? A idol ? Why is everyone so impulsive or rather , protective when it comes to her ?! It was like this earlier too , one sentence and they were acting so nice . This is Madness .

"It's fine , I can just share it with echizen-san ! I can right ? echizen-san ?" she shouted back and turned to me with a smile on her face . I looked at her and sighed .

"Do what you want .."

"Thank you !" She dragged her desk and placed it next to mine and sat down beside me with the textbook in between the desk . "you're really nice you know that ?"

I looked at her . What me ? Nice ? She must be joking , I was being rude to her to get her to keep away from me , and what ? She thinks i'm nice ?!

"Echizen , continue the line from where I last stopped ." The teacher called out to me which caught me by surprised . Damn it , I wasn't listening as my mind was preoccupied with the weirdest girl I have ever known . Shit where did he stop ? I was flipping through my textbook to find out where the teacher was at when takanishi-san whispered to me "page 34 line 5." I shot a stare at her and then I read from where she said the teacher had stopped . I sat back down after reading . The lesson ended and we greeted the teacher . After the last lesson of the day , I packed my bag and got ready to leave when takanishi-san called out to me .

"echizen-san your english is really good !" She looked at me with glimmering eyes . I give up , it looks like she won't shut up and leave me alone unless I tell her to . Sigh .

"you know .. you don't have to be so nice towards me .."

"heh ?" She looked innocently at me .

"It's best if you stay away from me or you'll get caught up in my business and those rumors ."

"why would I do that ? It's just rumors , its not like its really true , and besides , you don't seem like a bad person at all .Even though you look like your a bad person but , your actually really nice right ?." I looked at her and thought about what she said . Is she out of her mind ?

"so lets be friends echizen-san !" She held out her hands to me again but I pushed it away ."i don't need any friends!" I walked out of the classroom and headed towards the school gate . Friends ? I don't need any , they all betrayed me . I will never trust anyone other than myself . I walked out of the school and headed to the train station . Damn it ! I was held back by that girl and now I am going to be late !

Chiyo's POV:

"I don't need any friends !"

the words kept repeating itself in my head . Why would he say something like that ?

"Chiyo ! Why do you keep talking to that jerk !" Osakada brought me back from my thoughts .

"heh jerk ? Jerk who ?" I looked at my watch only to realized how late it was ."i have to go now ! I'll see you tomorrow !"

If I don't hurry i'm going to be late for my work ! And today is the first day where i'll be transferring to a new branch ! I Ran as fast as I could towards the train station . I squeezed in the crowded trains . After 10 minutes of being inside a train like a packed sardines In a can , I finally reached ! Yes ! I got out of the station and headed towards sunshine Cafe . I made it on time ! The manager came and greeted me .

"Thanks for coming takanishi-san , please go ahead and change to your work uniform and i'll introduce you to the staff ."

"hai !"

I went to the changing rooms and changed in to the waitress uniform . Ah I love the uniforms of this cafe ! Its designed as a maid uniform and its just so cute ! I walked out and the manager led me towards the meeting room . The staff were all there .

"everyone , this is Takanishi Chiyo , she just transferred her from the south branch , lets all welcome her ."

I walked in and smiled at the staff members . " Hello , i'm Takanishi Chiyo , you can call me chi or chiyo ."

Then I heard a cough and someone choking , I looked up and my eyes widened as I saw a familiar person .

"Echizen-san ?!"

Ryoma and chiyo sat beside each other at class , chiyo kept talking to him and now they are working in the same restaurant ?! What could get any worse for ryoma . Read to find out ! Thanks for reading people and thanks for the reviews ! Heart you guys :D
