The Mysterious Type

Guys Don't Like Me

A soft breeze blew through my short blueish purple hair as I looked down at my phone and turned my volume up. the murmur of the students around me was drown out by the beat of the music and i felt a cocky smirk fall across my lips.

none of these rich kids knew what kind of struggle they where in for this year. i intended to beat all of them on the scholastic level. according to my research most of them were only here because of their parents connections. none of them where at my level of intellect and i felt a shiver of excitement as i thought of their little dreams being crushed by some random american who couldn't even afford their stupid uniform.

i shoved my phone into the pocket of my black and purple stripped hoodie and made my way to my class. as i sat in the very back next to the large windows i felt a small sigh release itself from me. the whole damn school was pink. i mean it doesn't really look bad, in fact it seems to suit the richness of it all, i just wish it could've been a different color. purple would have been better, or maybe blue.

as i was drifting off in my own thoughts of the color scheme a girl had walked up to me and started to talk. sadly though i was off in my own little world and didn't even notice that she had planted herself on my desk in a sad attempt to flirt with me.

this carried on for a few moments before i noticed her. when i did her face seemed to light up. slowly i nudged one side of my headphones off and asked "may i help you?" she leaned forward on her hands, using the tops of her arms to push her medium sized boobs together in an attempt to make them seem bigger as she said "Hi! my names Setsu! you must be new here! would you like for me to show you around?"

i gave her a quick once over. she was almost sickly skinny with long obviously dyed blond curly hair, her eyes where a dull grey and she wore the school uniform, neatly pressed to perfection.

it was obvious that she was just some stupid rich girl who thought if she pretended to be nice enough that she could get with me. with a straight face i said "no thank you." and put my headphones back on before turning my volume up more to drown out her whining as she begged for a reason why. ignoring her, i gazed out the window in boredom. what felt like forever and a day later she gave up and left me alone. i sighed in relief and leaned back in my chair with my hands behind my head and feet up on my desk.

moments later they were shoved off of my desk and my eyes flew open to see a guy twice my size glaring down at me. i pulled my headphones back again and rose an eyebrow as i waited for him to say something. "what the hell do you think you're doing making a pass at my girlfriend?" he half yelled at me, spit flying all over my face.

taking a second to wipe it off i said "i think you need to get your facts straight. your so called "girlfriend" was the one making passes." i used my fingers to put quotations around girlfriend before leaning back and leveling my gaze at him. this only seemed to enrage him more and he grabbed the front of my shirt and pulled me close to his face so he could hiss "you better not be calling setsu a liar, punk." i sighed and my eyes drifted to the side to see a grinning setsu with fake tears in her eyes.

i looked back at the meat head and said "first, my name is Dakota Emerrson, not punk. second, your girl is a lying, cheating, idiot and i wouldn't make a pass at her if you paid me to. third, your breath smells really bad so i would appreciate it if you would let me go." i then pressed a pressure point in his hand making him let me go before i pushed him a step away and said "now i have no problem with you dude, but if you let some bitch manipulate you into messing with me again not only will i mess you up physically, but i will take your girl and turn her against you." the guy just stared at me in awe before slowly walking away, a stunned setsu following him.

i rolled my eyes and put my headphones back on, guys don't like me by it boys was playing. my cocky smile lit my face again as my gaze returned to the window. the day hasn't even started and already i have nearly gotten into a fight. oh well.

as the teacher came in i quickly looked around to see who was sitting around me. a girl with medium length brown hair and large matching eyes was right beside me, in front of us was a ginger pair of twins glaring at me.

i rose an eyebrow at them before turning to the girl and tapping her arm. she looked up surprised and gave me a confused look as i moved my headphones off and around my neck. i flashed her a small smile as i said "i don't mean to be rude but is it ok for someone else to sit there?" she tilted her head slightly even more confused before asking "why?"

i set my elbow on my table and put my chin in my hand before saying in a bored tone "because your boyfriends in front of us are throwing me daggers and I've already almost gotten into a fight because some stupid girl wanted to get close to me." understanding seemed to light up her face as she smiled kindly at me and said "neither of them are my boyfriend but if you would prefer i could switch with one of them." i nodded and she stood up.

i watched as she walked to the twins and smacked them both when they continued to glare at me. she pointed to one of them and jerked her thumb in my direction as she said "hikaru go sit with him." i watched in amusement as he cut a glare at me before asking in a fake whiny voice to her "why do i have to? why not kaoru?" she sighed heavily and said "because he is the least annoying of you two." he huffed but stood up and and came over to the seat by me.

I gave him a slight smile and held my hand out for a handshake as I said "hello hikaru, my name is Dakota. Its a pleasure to meet you." He looked at my hand as if it where dirty for a second then turned his nose up at it with a huff. I sat awkwardly holding my hand there for a few moments before letting the smile drop with a sigh and muttering in a semi deep voice "nice to meet you too Dakota. My what a lovely color for your hair!" Then in my normal voice "why thank you iv been dying it since I was 11!"

I had been glaring at my desk as I talked to myself and didn't expect the snort of laughter to come from beside me. My eyes snapped to hikaru slightly startled to see him covering his mouth as he laughed at me.

A slow smile crept up my face as he asked "do you always talk to yourself?" I shrugged and leaned back in my chair as I put my hands behind my head and said "I suppose. Its not like many other people provide the right stimulation my brain needs." He just shook his head clearly amused before turning and paying attention to the teacher.

I looked up just in time to hear him ask "would our newest student please stand and say something about him self?" So with a sigh I stood up slowly and said "hello, my name is Dakota Emerson. I recently moved here from america. I like science and music,and dislike skanks and idiots." I gave a pointed look to setsu before sitting down satisfied.

Hikaru was laughing again along with kaoru but the girl from before glared at both of them before turning to me and saying "that wasn't very nice Emerson-kun" I just rolled my eyes before saying "your missing the lesson." And yawning . she gave me a disapproving look before turning around. I turned to look back out the window as I waited for class to be over.

Once lunch arrived I watched as everyone left the class room except the girl. She to my surprise pulled out what looked to be an inexpensive homemade bento box. I stared at it hungrily for a moment before snapping myself our of my food daze and standing up abruptly when I realized we where alone.

She looked up startled for a moment but I didn't say anything as I quickly left the room in a slight panic. She watched me the whole way out.
