~ Chapter One ~

I was walking to school when all of a sudden I herd a, “Hey Natsumi! Wait up!”. I turned around just to see Kimi running up from behind. Oh God, I thought, what does she want now. I already told her I don't want to go camping this weekend. “Oh, uhh, Hey! What's up” Gasping for breath after running up half the block she looks at me and says, “Did you think anymore about going camping with us this weekend?” Ugh can she not take no for an answer. “ I thought I already said I didn't want to go, I need to catch up in math, chores need to be done an..” “Oh come on Nati! You are a big girl now, you will be seventeen in a couple weeks you can go camping one night can't you?” I just roll my eyes. “Look I just don't dig going out with all those bugs and icky things. I am going to be late for class I will see you later.” I turn and start speed walking away, ok now to get to class before I really am late! I hear a faint “Will you at least think on it a little more?” I just keep walking. Gosh can't she just see I don't want to go? Especially with that weird Kouta from my Biology class going. Bell rings. Oh no I will be late for sure. Now I have to run, and I just did my fur!

I slide into my desk and fix my tail. I am panting hard from the run, wow, I really am out of shape. Mrs. Nao starts writing on the chalk board. “Okay class, open your books to page 329. Today we are learning about Ancient Greece.” Oh great, I HATE History class. I feel someone tapping my shoulder so I turn around. “Can I borrow a pencil? I left mine in my locker.” I sigh and reach for my backpack and realize I forgot to get it out of my locker! Oh God! Now what!? All my stuff is in there, I will get detention for sure. “Mrs. Nao?” I ask meekly. She turns around with the look of detention on her face. “ Yes, Miss. Natsumi?” “May I go to the bathroom please?” Maybe she wont notice me walk in with my backpack. “Now Miss. Natsumi, you have had all morning you should have gone then.” The class snickered a little but stopped when the teacher gave them the glare of death. “I know Mrs. Nao, I am really sorry. Did I mention you look fabulous in that dress today?” Oh man was that a load of crap, it looks like a pop-tart barfed all over her and her ears were all matted along with her tail. She blushed. “Well, thank you, here is a slip and don't take long, we wouldn't want you to miss all the fun.” Ya the fun, sure, I grab the slip, ease in a fake smile and head out the door. I close it quietly and dash for my locker completely forgetting about that guy who asked me for a pencil. Who was he? I have never seen him before, he was kinda cute too. Oh yes my locker, oh crap I forgot my key! What is wrong with me today? Must be a full moon. Oh well, I will have to break it I guess. Good thing I have sharp teeth. I hear a snap and my door swings open. Well that worked but now I will be tasting metal in my mouth all day. Yuck. I grab my bag and run back to class. I sneak back in and sit down, luckily no one noticed my return. Everyone is glazed over point. I grab a pencil and turn it around and hand it to that boy. “Here sorry about that.” He shakes his head a little regaining consciousness and says oh yes, right.” He smiles an adorable smile and says “Thank you.” I think I blushed because he giggled at me.

The last bell of the day rings and that cute boy from first period runs up to me and pulls my tail. “I beg your pardon mister but this is not a toy you know.” I tug his back and hold on to mine to ensure it's safety. “Oh I am sorry, I was calling you but I guess you didn't hear me. I wanted to return your pencil.” “Oh no you can keep it Mr.....” “Oh my name is Hiroki, and no need for the mister.” “Oh. Alright then Hiroki. Like I said you can keep it. Well I have to be home now I must make dinner.” “Um, alright Natsumi, could we maybe talk again sometime?” “Ummm, sure! I would love to. How about tomorrow?” “Alright then, I will hold you to that.” He said with a Cheshire cat like grin. I book home for I know Kiyomi will be stumbling in later flat out drunk, I need to have her bath drawn and bed made. I so wish she wouldn't drink so much. I mean, she is my best friend and she is underage, she just looks older. I finally get home only to discover the door wide open. This doesn't look good, I know I locked it before I left. You have to be kidding me. It HAS to be a full moon tonight...
