"I'm not wearing a skirt, Ashford can forget about that" I protested. For protection against Zero, my father was going to send me to Ashford Academy, somehow figuring people would think I was an 11.

"Mistress, then you'll have to go to school as a boy"

"Then I will. Alison, cut my hair will you? If I'm enrolling as a male then I'll need to look the part" I said, sitting on a chair, pulling my long hair behind me.

"But miss-"

"Do it Alison, or I will" I hand her the sewing scissors from my vanity. She took them with hesitation.

Twenty minutes later I looked like a boy, shoulders up.

"Thanks, and if anyone asks, I did it myself" I smiled at her and she nodded while returning my smile.

• 1 week later •

This school is big, but I've dealt with bigger. I've also learned how to lay low, my face has never been on camera, my voice has never been recorded. I'm practically an 11 already.

It seems like in one class, one boy is late. Lelouch Lamperouge. He doesn't seem to care that he's late, but keeps his good grades nevertheless.

On his way out of class, he looked back to a brunette boy, and pulled on his collar. Some sort of sign. After the brunette followed Lelouch, I followed him. To the roof they went, leaving the door propped open.

I peer through the open crack, honing my hearing to what they were saying.

"What was it you wanted to talk to me about Lelouch?"

"Suzaku, I want you to take care of Nunnally for me. I have a feeling I'm close to being exposed and I don't want her to deal with it" Lelouch replied. Who's Nunnally to Lelouch? I back away from the door so I wouldn't be caught.

On my way to lunch I was stopped by a tall girl with shoulder length blonde hair.

"Hi! Are you (F/B/N)?" She asked cheerfully. {Fake/Boy/Name}

"Yes...?" I respond.
"Well students are required to join a club so is there one you're interested in?" Im skeptic of this girl, and my facial expressions show it. "Oh! I'm Milly, Stident Council President" she introduced.

"No, there's not any club I'm particularly interested in, go ahead and put me in whatever" I respond.

"Come with me then, Student Council meets at lunch and after school on occasions" she tried takin my hand but I pulled away. I received a questioning look from Milly.

"I don't like being touched" she shrugs it off and leads me to the Student Council room, explaining everything in grave detail. The others are awaiting our arrival.

"You guys, this is (F/F/B/N)" then she turned to me. "That's Rivalz, Suzaku, Lelouch, Shirley, Mina, Kollin....and don't forget Arthur" she said, picking up a little black cat. {Full/Fake/Boy/Name}

Milly walked over to Mina who was on a computer, so I sat down at the large center table. Kollin and Shirley were bickering while Lelouch and Suzaku chatted. What were they talking about earlier? In my train of thought, I didn't realize Arthurr was on my lap purring and Rivalz was next to me, staring.

"Are you a cat person?" Rivalz asked.

"Hub? Oh, I have a cat at home but it's not as friendly as this one" I say back. Maybe I could ask Rivalz who Nunnally was to Lelouch. "Hey Rivalz?" I ask him, playing with the cuffs of my jacket.

"Yeah, what is it?" His posture straightened like it was an honor to be asked a question.

"Who's Nunnally?"

"Oh Nunnlau is Lelouch's little sister, she's really nice and is an honorary Student Council member" he smiled, happy to be of help.

"Oh, that makes sense now..." I murmur to myself.
