Chapter 2
It's been three weeks since Soushi rescued Yuki from the two thugs. School has finally started and Soushi is running late.
"Damn alarm clock. Why of all times did the battery die today!" He checked his watch, cursed himself, and ran full speed towards 'Tenjou Gakuen'.
__________________________________________________________________________
"ahh... somehow... I... made it" Soushi said between breaths. After catching his breath, he stared up and looked at the School Watch-Tower. "What the hell?!" Soushi said. It seems his watch was 30min earlier than the clock. "Damn, all the rush for nothing" he slumped.
"Soushi!"
'Oh no... I know that voice' Soushi thought before a hand slapped his back, sending waves of pain through his nerves and body before falling face first into the ground.
"Yo, Soushi! Haven't seen you since Graduation!" The girl grinned.
"Karin! I knew it was you" Soushi sighed as Karin helped him up. Dusting himself, he asked "why are you here? I thought you were gonna attend some other school?"
"That's true" she smiled "But the school I was supposed to attend is far away. And I hate waking up early. So, I decided to attend this one! It's much more nearer and it doesn't require to wake up beofre the sun is up!"
"oh" He sweatdropped
Karin Scarlett. A girl Soushi met back when he was still a freshman in middle school. She has a long, brown hair that's she always keep in a ponytail. And at least a size D. She's also a bit smaller than Soushi. An athlethic and brave girl, she occasionaly lets her mind speak for her. he met Karin when a few boys were ganging up on her. He helped her get away from them and since then, Karin bugged Soushi to become her friend until finally, he gave up. 'That was a loong time ago though. But really, a girl with that kind of strenght is somehow unnatural' He thought.
They reached the list of classes and both seperated to search for their respected classrooms. '1-B' Soushi thought and went away to look for Karin. While he was looking for her, he accidentally bumped into a blonde haired girl. "Ah, Sorry" Soushi said as he bowed slightly. But it seems she didn't even notice him as she kept on walking. 'Weird' he thought.
"Ah! There you are!" Soushi turned and saw Karin walking towards him.
"What class are you in?"
"1-B, you?"
"Yay! Were in the same class!"
"What? No way!" He said with a shocked look on his face 'At this rate, I won't live long enough to graduate' he cried inside. "Well then. Since we're now classmates" she bowed "please take care of me again" Karin said as she straightened up and slapped his back again, making Soushi fall to his knees. 'Really. What kind of strenght is that?!' Soushi thought as he shakily stood up.
Ding-Dong. Ding-Dong.
The School bell rang and all freshman gathered for the 'Welcoming Ceremony'. After that, classes went by and school ended.
__________________________________________________________________________
Soushi was heading towards the station when he stopped by to buy an Ice Cream. He was waiting for the Vendor to give him his Ice Cream when he saw a girl with black hair. 'Tht girl looks familiar' he thought. After thinking, Soushi thought that following her might be worth it. She rode the train and got off a station before Soushi's. 'She must be living near' Soushi thought and hid behind a post. He also noticed a few people were staring t him. 'Noo! This isn't what it looks like!' He thought.
"Kyaaa!"
Soushi turned his head towards the commotion and saw a man with the girls bag, running towards his direction.
"Help! Thief!"
It seems the robber didn't saw Soushi. So when he was near enough, Soushi stuck out his foot and the Robber tripped with a loud 'thud!' and also sends the bag flying. Soushi ran after the bag, jumped and caught it in mid-air. After some policeman took the robber away, he turned around to see the girl bowing to him. "Thank you" she said. When she raised her head, Soushi was suprised who it was.
"Nagato-san?"
"How do you know my... ah! You're the boy that saved me from the two men! umm... Kagesora?"
'So she still remembers me. Sweet!' he silently thanked the Gods "Please don't call me that. It's just too long. Just call me Soushi"
"Alright. Thank you, Souhi-kun"
Soushi felt his cheeks burn when he heard his name with the '-kun'. "Ahaha. It was nothing" He laughed.
"By the way Soushi-kun. Do you live here? I never saw you in this part of the neighborhood."
Suddenly, Soushi froze. 'Ah no! If she finds out I was following her, she might think i'm a stalker!' Random thoughts of him ending up in jail for stalking and Yuki hating him for the rest of his life ran amock inside his head.
"Ah, uh...well..."
"Soushi?"
'That voice!' Soushi thought as he twirled around and saw Karin.
"Karin?!"
"Hi Soushi! I didn't know you live in this part of the neighborhood!"
'Damn it! How come Time is against me!' "Karin! What are you doing here?"
"Why, I live in this neighborhood! I guess we're neighbors AND classmates, huh? Karin said Happily.
"No, uh. I don't live here."
"Oh. Then what are you doing here?" She gasped "Maybe you had a crush on me and you were acutally stalking me and I accidentally found you?!"
"Don't make things up!" He shouted
"Okay then, what ARE you doing here, Soushi?"
"Well... you see..." 'Oh my GOD! What if she finds out I was following Nagato-san!' He was losing hope. And when he was about to spill the beans, an unexpected hero came up.
"He was with me" Soushi looked and saw Yuki looking at her
"I was?!" He looked at her and saw Yuki wink at him. "Oh yeah! I was... uh, accompanying her!"
"Really?"
"Yes. Soushi-kun was accompanying me towards my house" Yuki said, showing formality
Soushi noticed that Karins eyebrow twitched "Oh. So you two know each other?"
"Yes, we met during the summer break" She said
After that sentence, Soushi noticed that Karin's eyebrow twitched again. "Well then! I'm gonna go home first. Nice meeting you..."
"Yuki. Nagato Yuki"
"Right. Nice meeting you, Yuki-chan!" and with that, she turned around and ran away.
'I dunno what just happened, but I think I was saved'. Soushi sighed as he sat with his back against a wall.
"Hmph"
Soushi looked up and saw Yuki bending towards him, her cheeks puffed and her eyes looking at him angrily.
Soushi blushed and turned his head, trying to avoid eye contact and hid his blush. 'Why do girls look so cute when they try to look angry' He asked himself.
"You were following me, weren't you?"
Soushi tensed up and relaxed again 'Bulls-eye'
She straightened up and with a smile and a small bow, she said "But if you weren't there, my bag would've been stolen. Thank you again, Soushi-kun. I guess this makes us even?"
"Even? I saved you twice, so that means you still owe me" he grinned
"Oh? Then I guess Kagesora-san won't mind spending a night in jail for Stalking?"
Soushis body twitched and lowered his head in defeat "Fine. You win, we're now even."
"But really, Soushi-kun. Why WERE you following me?" she gasped "Maybe you were actually Stalking me?!"
"NO! I wasn't stalking you, really!"
"Then why?" She said as she sat down in front of him.
He scratched the back of his head "I kinda forgot myself"
They both stared at each other, then Yuki laughed and, soon after, Soushi was laughing with her.
"Hahaha. You're funny, Soushi-kun"
He hid his face in his bangs while still laughing, trying to hide his cheeks. 'still not used to being called like that.' he thought.
Soushi stood up and helped Yuki up to her feet. "Well then, I better get home" Soushi said
Ah! Me too. I hope we can meet again, Soushi-kun.
"Me too, Nagato-san" and with that, they went their seperate ways.

"Soushi"
"..."
"Soushi!"
"..."
"SOUSHI!"
"Huh? What? Where's the fire?!"
Soushi jumped from his seat and looked around quickly, trying to find something burning.
"Karin, what's wrong? What are you doing at my house?!"
"House? Wow, you must've been knocked out good. We're at school, idiot. Classes are starting."
"Whatever" He said as he lowered his head and closed his eyes. He can only hear the voices silence once the teacher has begun to speak.
"Okay class. Before we begin, we have a new student here in Tenjou Gakuen"
'Tch, who cares'
"You can enter now" Soushi heard the door slide open and a chorus of "Cute!" was heard.
'Probably another one of those stuck-up girls anyway' He took a peak to his right and saw Karin with her mouth hanging open and her eyes wide. 'What's wrong with her?' He looked towards the teacher and, suprised, jumped from his seat with his mouth hanging open and his eyes wide.
"Introduce yourself" the teacher said
"Hai" she said to the teacher and then faced the class. "Hello, my name is Nagato-Yuki. Nice to meet you all" She bowed, looked around the classroom and gasped "Karin-san! Soushi-kun! You both study here?"
Suddenly, the male population of the class had an uproar "SOUSHI-KUUUUUNN?!?!"
"What the hell Soushi?!" "You two know each other?!"
"We met during the Summer" Yuki said with a smile. The boys turned to stone and crumbled to dust, the wind blowing them away.
'Don't Nagato-san! You're making things worse!' Soushi thought, tears streaming down his face.
Suddenly, He felt the glares of all the boys in his class. Each of them silently mumbling "Damn you, Kagesora Soushi."
"I'm done for" Soushi thought as he looked at Yuki, smiling at him.
It looks like life became Dangerously Intersting for Soushi.
