Chapter 1

Hizuru Specialized High School for the Gifted is, as its name suggests, a place for the gifted and sometimes even geniuses. But amidst the crowd of intellectuals was Naomi Tomori, a first-year that got in with a little bit of luck. She was short for people of her age, with brown silky hair, wavy with long strands down the shoulders and straight along in the back. Her eyes are always wide open, with orange pupils that always glimmered with ambition.

'Today is the first day', she thought to herself. 'I'll make a good impression and make friends with everyone!', such were her intentions. She quickly put on her uniform: a buttoned-up collared shirt and skirt that barely covered her knees with black knee-high socks. She then put on her hair clip, said goodbye to her family, and quickly headed to the subway.

As the train pulled up, a crowd of people soon filled the train. Luckily, with her small physique, she managed to get through them and got to the seats. However, one of the seats had a backpack on it. She looked at the seat next to it and asked

-Is that seat taken?

-Oh, no. Please feel free to use it!

Sitting there was someone wearing the same uniform, with messy gray hair almost covering his translucent turquoise eyes and a mask covering most of his face. Despite that, she instantly realized who he was. He was Shousuke Haku, a teenage model that has appeared in several fashion magazines, all of which Tomori follows.

-A-Are you...

-Yes I am.

He replied before she could even finish her question, leaving her in complete astonishment.

She wanted to quickly change the subject, as she could feel the atmosphere getting awkward when she noticed the uniform he was wearing.

-Wait, you're going to Hizuru School too ?

-Ahaha…

-So what class are you in Haku-kun?

-I should be in class 1-1.

-Oh, the same class as me then, please treat me well.

-Same here, uh…

-Naomi Tomori, nice to meet you.

-Nice to meet you too, Tomori-san.
