Don't You Dare Love

Chapter 1: Juliet's Roses

They say high school is the most cherished moment of one's life. A time where one's youth is lived at its fullest. The moment that where most people find who they are. A peek on the doorway towards adulthood.
But what everyone looks forward to in high school is something that I want to avoid...

Falling in love.

"Looks like there are a lot of new students. And as expected, a lot of familiar faces." Nao said with a deadpan face standing in the entrance of the gym while placing both her hands on her waists.

"Oh look, Yuki. So the prime minister's grandchild enrolled here as I have presumed." She added.

"Hmm? Yuki?" Nao puzzled of not hearing a reply then turned back to where I was.

"EH?! YUKI?!" Nao exclaimed shockingly.

She saw a slumped body on the floor emitting a depressed aura. Nao swiftly bent down in my level.

"What happened?! Are you okay?!" Nao said worriedly placing her hands on my back.

"I-I'm fine" I answered lifting my head while holding my mouth as if about to puke. "J-just a bit nervous. Hehe" I awkwardly smiled with a chibi form face.                                                                                      

Nao  suddenly grabbed my collar pulling me up to stand.

"Uwaaah!"

"Why the hell do you always do this every bloody year!" Nao angrily exclaimed.

"Uwaah! I'm sorry Nao!" I cried.

She then let go of my collar placing me on the ground gently then turned around blushing with her hands crossed.

"Jeez. Don't make me worry like that!" She pouted.

"Sorry Nao." I apologized, silently chuckling.

Nao is a very good friend of mine. A tall girl with a short black hair who is a very strong person. When I say strong I mean character and physical strength. She is currently the captain of the Judo club and also mastered different forms of martial arts. Well, that is to be expected of  the daughter of a martial arts master. Nao may look serious and intimidating but she's very soft and caring on the inside. She's just too shy to show it to retain her tenacious image. Nao is what you call a tsundere.

"Nao-chan is so cute when she pouts." I taunted wearing an innocent smile.

"Wh-wh-WHAT? I-I'm not cu-cute!!" Nao bursted out while blushing as red as a tomato. (Told you hehe)

Nao started to chase me. I laughed and ran inside the gym towards where seniors should line up. Inside the gymnasium is a stage with huge red curtains covering the back that looks like a stage in a theater house. 

All students diligently lined up according to their year level. Facing the stage, the first years were on the right side, juniors on the middle an seniors on the left. 

On the stage, stood dazzling women facing the audience. On the middle, a gorgeous woman with golden brown hair tied up into a bun was sitting on a large wooden chair that looked like a queen's throne with a rose engraved on the top rail. She was the headmistress and owner of the academy, Miss Juliet Camise Capulet Rose VI.
