It was 4:00 AM as Mariko Nagato was still asleep until her alarm clock went off. As she was starting to wake up, she turned off her alarm clock and reads the time that said "4:00 AM". She yawned and stretched as If she had been knocked out. "Boy, what was I dreaming?", Mariko wondered. So, she got on her laptop, grabbed her earbuds and listened to music. Now this is what gets me in the good mood, Mariko thought to herself as she clicked onto her calendar, which was July 20. She knew today was her first day of School. So, she went over to Facebook and started up a message conversation with her close friends, Wariko Ekumankoi, Walekki Ekumankoi and Bakstere Takahaku. Just as she started up the message conversation, she was the first to send a message: "Hey, y'all. What's up?" After sending the message, she was waiting on her friends to reply. It wasn't long until Wariko replied, "Why are you up so early?", "Cause I'm more of an early type of gal.", Mariko replied back. "So, you're an early type of gal, eh?", Wariko replied again. "Yep.", Mariko replied back as they kept going on, sending each other messages.
The conversation wasn't only just Mariko and Wariko messaging. However, Walekki woke up, grabbed her phone and texted, "Why are you both messaging each other so early at 4 in the morning?", "Ahem. Hello. You should ask the Queen of Early birds here..", Wariko replied. "Ah, Walekki-San. Good thing you're finally apart of this conversation!", Mariko replied with an excitement emoji. Later, when Mariko headed off to School on her first day, she greeted Wariko, Walekki and Bakstere,. "Hello, Queen of Early Birds..", Wariko said with an annoyed look on her face. "Hey, Mariko-Chan.", Walekki and Bakstere greeted Mariko as well as Bakstere started to wonder why Wariko called Mariko the "Queen of Early Birds." After they got with each other on campus, Mariko found a spot for herself to dance as she grabbed her phone and speaker out of her bag. First, she connected her phone to her speaker, then played "Take It! Sailor Uniform", an opening from one of her favorite Anime's, Lucky Star. As the song began, she memorized each dance move and danced to the song as she had the volume up.
As Mariko was still dancing, some of the students dropped what they're doing and watched Mariko dance. "Man, that girl knows how to rock that move." One student said. "I didn't know she can dance." The other replied. All of the students came up and watched how Mariko kept on dancing and started recording her on their phones like they wanted to post it up on their social media. By the time the song finished and as she posed, everyone clapped for her as Mariko bowed. "You get 'em girl!", Bakstere cheered for her. "Mariko-Chan's like the Goddess of Dancing." Walekki added. Apparently, one of the boys, who watched Mariko dance, fell in love with her as he came up to her and said "I really love your dancing. My name is Daiki Yagimuyoko.", "I'm Mariko Nagato." Mariko replied as the two bowed and shook hands. "I'm glad you love my dancing, Daiki-Kun." Mariko added with a smile. Later as everyone got to class, Mariko headed straight to her first class, History. While her History teacher was teaching, Mariko couldn't stop thinking about her first meeting with Daiki.
"Uh... Mariko?" Her history teacher called her. "Wh-What is it, ma'am?" Mariko replied as she jumped with fright and an embarrassed look on her face as some of the kids laughed. "You okay back there?" Her history teacher asked. "Yeah, everything is cool, ma'am." Mariko replied as everyone continued to business. By the time it was lunch time after a few of Mariko's classes, Mariko still couldn't stop thinking about her meeting with Daiki. I wonder if he thought I looked sexy for dancing as well, Mariko thought to herself as Wariko, Walekki and Bakstere sat with her. "Hey, Mariko-Chan." Walekki greeted her with happiness. "Hey, Walekki-San." Mariko replied with happiness. "We saw how you and that boy met this morning." Bakstere replied. "Oh, God.. The Boy and The Queen of the Early Birds..." Wariko replied again, still rather annoyed about this morning. "Why do you keep calling Mariko the Queen of Early Birds?" Bakstere asked. "Cause she started up a conversation with us on Facebook at 4 in the Goddamn morning!" Wariko replied with anger.
"Says a certain somebody who gets so pissy about me being up so early." Mariko replied, started roasting on Wariko and laughing harder. After eating lunch, Mariko went to go find Daiki and wanted to talk to him more. As Mariko got into the hallway to find Daiki, Daiki bumped right into Mariko. "Oh hey, it's you again." Daiki noticed her with a smile as Mariko smiled as well. "Since we have met this morning, I would really love to talk to you even more." Mariko said as Daiki and Mariko conversed more and more about their everyday lives, hobbies, and everything else. "Hey, um.. Mariko.." Daiki started to say. "You don't mind If I ask you something?" Daiki asked. "Yes. What's that?" Mariko wondered. "Would you love to go out on a date with me?" Daiki asked as Mariko started blushing red as she replied. "Yes. I would really love that idea." Mariko answered. "This makes my day very happy." Mariko added. After school ended later, Mariko was out in the front gate, waiting for Daiki. As Daiki finally showed up, Mariko and Daiki went to the park, holding hands as they began talking. And so begins my High-School Life, Mariko thought to herself as Daiki started laying on Mariko's thighs, feeling comfortable.
