4:00am... Great, I've spent 4 hours doing nothing but studying, at this rate I won't even be able to pay attention tomorrow. I close my books and put my pencils back in their pouch.
I groan as I push my self up and away from my desk and crawl over to my bed flinging myself into the mattress.
"Ugh, I'm so tired" I whine as I roll over and turn off the lamp next to my bed. In under a minute I felt my body drift away into sleep.

"Onee-chan!" My eyes shoot open, oh god, if my sister is already up then I'm late. I roll out of bed and run over to my dresser, stubbing my toe on the desk.
"Shh" I hold myself back from swearing, "Come in!" I shout so my little sister Chiyoko can hear me. She bursts through the door.
"Obachan is gonna be mmaaddd" Chiyoko mocks as she points to the clock, 8:00am, nice, I was supposed be out at 6:00am.
"Did you make the coffee Chiyoko?" I ask while changing into my unwashed school uniform.
"Yeah, you're gonna need it." She answers smiling and standing on her tippy toes fleeing out the door and running downstairs.
I grab my school bag and put my hair up into a ponytail letting my long brown hair lay against my back.
I run into the kitchen and pour a cup of coffee as fast as I can.
"I don't have time to sit around and drink coffee so I'm taking this with me." I tell Chiyoko as I put a lid on the coffee cup.
"Okay, bye Onee-chan." My sister says waving.
I slip on my shoes and run out the front door, sprinting as fast as I can, it's only a few blocks away, and either way I'm late, but I'm missing my science class right now, and that's what I've been studying all week because I'm behind. I start panting as I catch my breath at a red light, throwing my coffee cup into a nearby garbage can. As soon as the light turns green I start to run and only to be stopped by a black limousine that nicked my leg sending me a few feet forward.
"Oh my god, are you alright?!" I hear the driver shout as he hops out of the car to come to my aid. The man was old and bald in a Butler outfit.
I hear a car door open and turn to my left to see a tall boy get out and push up his glasses.
"Y-yeah, I'm fine" I assure the driver pushing myself up off the ground, though once I got up my leg started to wobble.
I tried to get up and continue to go to school when the boy in the Ouran private academy uniform spoke,
"Miss, you're in no condition to walk to school, I'll bring you to my school infirmary and then when they fix you up they'll send you on your way." The boy say pushing his glasses again, he sounded extremely mature and he was very, very handsome.
But I just need to get to school, "Ah, no that's okay, once I get to my school I'll go to the our clinic and get some ice." I say turning around to answer him, his Butler still kneeling on the ground from when he was helping me.
"Ice? Surely you'll need more than just ice, you did just get hit by a car, it won't take but a few minutes." The boy answers me, it'll be tough to get him to let me go, and talking to him will just waste more time.
"Alright, as long as it's quick." I say limping over to the car, the boy crawls into the limousine and I follow after.
Soon enough the driver closed our doors and we were on our way.
I've never been in a limo before, I didn't even know that this is how they got to school, since our school starts before theirs.
"So you must attended Ouran public academy, yes?" The boy asks me while typing away into his laptop.
"Yeah" I sigh, the only reason I've been studying so hard is because I want to go to the private academy. My uniform must have given away my school.
"So what's your name,  I'd like to know so I don't start referring you go just another commoner." He asks harshly while pushing his glasses up.
Snob.
" Nice, I always wanted to know what you rich kids thought of us as. 'Commoners' how cool, and my name is Sakiko." I blurt out sarcastically.
He lets out a small laugh and shakes his head.
"I apologize, it's not everyday I get to meet one of you people, so wha-" I cut him off
"You don't have to act all nice just because you don't want me to sue you, I want even thinking about it anyway, it was an accident." I look up at him and explain.
At first he looks slightly surprised and they he sighs moving his hair out of his face.
"Smart girl, even though you suing us wouldn't really hurt us financially it i-" I cut him off again,
"Bad publicity, I know, I know." I tell him looking out the window now.
"Are all commoners this smart? I'm friends with another one at the moment and sh- he is very bright." He says surprised.
"Well I'm not stupid, I get how you people work." I snap, but keeping my words content so I don't seem too harsh.
"Us people? Enlighten me on how 'us people' work?" He snaps back, sounding kind of pissed.
"Everything is handed to you, you never want to help anyone because it could harm you financially or publicly, it's either money or fame." I say looking back at him.
"We don't help people? What am I doing right now?" He asks rhetorically in a cocky expression.
"Like I said before, you're only doing this to keep me from suing and telling the press that you ran me over with a car, assuming you're family runs a large industry." I explain, it's not like I really needed to tell him, but he pushed my buttons.
"Hmm" he hums finally breaking his eyes away from the laptop screen.
"How would you like to attend the private academy?" He asks tilting his head. If this wasn't a cheeky proposition from a snobby rich kid who hit me with his car, I'd take the offer in a heartbeat.
"No." I mumble.
"You didn't sound very sure, and beside I know you're lying." He says smirking.
"And why do you think I'm lying?" I hiss back.
"I found you in the school files, you've sent in several applications to get into this school, it's not that your academic performance is bad, you're just poor." He explains shrugging his shoulders, nice to finally know why they won't accept me.
"I can easily request you to be transferred in." He states still looking up at me,
"You've done enough already." I say looking back outside the window to see a gigantic rosey pink building, that more resembles an extremely first class hotel.
We're here.
