It was September when I first laid eyes on her. It was the beginning of the end, and a new beginning…
“Dai!” A woman’s voice called form the bottom of the stairs. The voice belonged to Emiko Niwa, the only living female in the Niwa bloodline.
She was fairly attractive with short sandy hair and bright brown eyes, and didn’t really fit the average housewife look. At this moment she was sporting a lime green turtleneck and a knee-length black skirt.
“Yes, Mom?” A voice replied from the pinnacle of the stairs. “Come down here and greet your cousin! You haven’t seen him in ages!” She cheerfully chimed back at her son.
“All right!” A male’s voice sighed from the stairs. Soon Daisuke Niwa came in to view. The short, skinny teenager of fourteen jumped the last step and turned to his mother. His strawberry red hair which sprouted from all directions and red eyes made him appear quite unlike his mother. “Remind me again why he’s coming to live with us?” Daisuke sighed with remorse.
Daisuke already had enough trouble between girl problems and the amount of homework he was given; now he had to show his older cousin around town. “Because we haven’t seen him in such a long time and because he’s now officially the newest student at your school!”
Daisuke yawned trying to figure just HOW his mother could be so cheerful in the morning. Must be the coffee…Daisuke isn’t allowed to drink coffee yet. His mother says it will stunt his growth…
There was the familiar ‘DING DONG!’ from the front of the house and Daisuke’s shoulders slumped farther down, “He’s here…” Emiko joyfully declared, “I’ll get it!”
She took off down the hall with such speed she could give a husky a run for its money. “She’s acting like a doting schoolgirl…” Daisuke mentally whined.
“Kyuu!” A small voice squeaked in greeting. Daisuke yawned, ‘Morning, With!” Daisuke’s pet rabbit sat atop the counter eating a strawberry. With looked quite different from other rabbits, but he was white with floppy fluffy ears and red eyes, like any normal rabbit…they never figured out why he said, ‘Kyuu.”
“Dai! Where are your manners? Come say hello!” His mother beckoned from across the house. Daisuke smiled, “Might as well get this over with right?” He addressed With.
“Oh God. First sign of insanity…talking to a rabbit.” With leapt on to Daisuke’s shoulder as the boy trekked down the hallway.
He stopped about 3 feet away from his mother and cousin…He stopped dead in his tracks out of sheer terror.
“Dai? Don’t be shy, say hello!” Emiko smiled at her terror-stricken son.
“YOU DIDN’T TELL ME HE WAS COMING!” Daisuke yelped as he stared at the boy beside his mother.
“Aw come on squirt! Is that any way to say hello to your favorite older cousin?” The older boy said while giving Daisuke a noogie.
Daisuke jerked away and rubbed his sore head, “Who said you were my favorite Dark?” The older boy laughed, “Me.”
Daisuke grumbled about communists and perverts before he looked his cousin up and down. “You got taller…” He observed.
The older boy smirked, “Yep…and look at you! I think you’ve gotten,-“He stepped forward so he was right in front of Daisuke, “Shorter…” True enough, Daisuke only did reach up to Dark’s chest.
“Oh shut up!” Daisuke grumbled in annoyance with his face almost as red as his hair.
This was Dark Mousy. Daisuke’s older cousin by 3 years. Dark was 17 years old while his ickle cousin was 14.
Daisuke looked his cousin over again noting his intense amethyst colored eyes, wild untamed purple tresses. It had been years since Daisuke had last saw Dark seeing as Dark had lived on the other side of the country.
“Kyuu kyuu!” With squealed and jumped at Dark.
Dark caught the furry creature with a chuckle, “It’s good to see you too With.” With originally belonged to Dark but since Dark had lived in an apartment with no pets, he was left in the care of the Niwas.
Daisuke and Dark were two total opposites of each other. Daisuke was short and scrawny while Dark was tall and muscular. Daisuke was cute, Dark was breathtakingly handsome, Daisuke was shy and uncertain, Dark was suave and seductive.
“Well it’s nice to see you two getting along! You better hurry off to school! Go on!” Emiko said happily and hugged the two before shoving them out the door.
The two walked in silence for a few minutes until Dark asked, “So, Daisuke are there any cute girls at this school of yours?” Daisuke let out an annoyed groan, “I don’t know, don’t ask me ask Sae-,”
“HELLO DAISUKE!” A loud thundering voice interrupted the redhead and forced him in to a headlock, “-hara…” The teenage boy sniggered, “Hey Daisuke look at what I got for you!”
He pulled out a few photos, “”R-Riku-san?” Daisuke blushed as Saehara handed him an 8x10. “Yep, because I know you love Harada!” Saehara laughed.
“Really now…?” Dark asked with a mischievous gleam in his eyes. Daisuke’s eyes bulged with terror, but Saehara blinked, “Hey Daisuke, who’s he?” Daisuke didn’t answer since he was on the verge of fainting so Dark answered for him, “I’m Dark, Daisuke’s older cousin.”
Saehara started to laugh uncontrollably, as if someone told him the funniest joke in the world. “You’re kidding me! You…DAISUKE’S cousin?” Daisuke bowed his head in embarrassment, “Saeharaaaaaa!” He whined in exasperation.
After a few more seconds Saehara’s laughter subsided and he straightened up, “Sorry about that. It is just hard to believe that you and Daisuke are related. I’m Takeshi Saehara by the way.” The brunette announced and held out his hand for Dark to shake.
Dark grasped Saehara’s hand with a satisfied grin, “Dark Mousy.” He motioned to himself with his thumb. “So who is this Riku I just heard about Dai?” He mischievously inquired. Daisuke flushed bright red and looked the opposite direction to ignore Dark.
Saehara smirked and passed Dark the photo he gave Daisuke. In the picture was a fourteen year old brunette girl with bright amber eyes and shoulder length russet hair. She was holding a lacrosse stick and talking to a person cut out of the picture.
Dark got that naughty perverted smirk on his face and said, “Heh, she’s hot…” At that precise moment Daisuke stiffened like a cat scenting a mouse, which Saehara ignored and grinned back, “Riku Harada, she is in our grade, Daisuke has got it bad for her…”
Daisuke then exploded, “I do not! She is just a friend!” His face was so scarlet it was steadily growing darker than his hair. Dark and Saehara smirked at each other before saying,” Riiiiight…” Daisuke then began shaking with fury and said, ‘Screw you both!”
Dark blinked slowly, “Daisuke that sounds wrong…in so many ways….I am your cousin and what you do in your private life is none of my business.” Daisuke then twitched multiple times before throwing his hands in to the air and stomping away from them. Dark smiled slightly at the scene before him, “This school year should be pretty…entertaining…”

...:School Courtyard:…
The masses of students swarmed in to the school courtyard to converse and chit-chat with their fellow teenagers. Some sat on benches, some preferred to stand, and various ones park themselves on the ground while others leaned against walls.
Daisuke, Saehara and Dark crossed the threshold in to the school grounds and looked around. Individual thoughts ran through their heads.
Daisuke was thinking, “Oh man I don’t think I can face Riku after what those two jerks said…”
Saehara was pondering, “I wonder what I can use for my next story…a reporter must always be on his toes after all…”
Dark was fantasizing, “Schweet…girls, girls, girls…”
The three teenager’s thoughts were soon interrupted by a yell of, “Niwa!” Heads turned to glimpse a teenage girl running towards them waving at the redhead. Daisuke’s face instantly glowed with a blush as he waved back weakly. “H-Hi, Riku.”
Dark got that evil smirk again, “So this is Riku…” The brunette panted as she reached the three and said, “Good morning Niwa, Saehara, and who is this?” She asked Daisuke as she motioned at Dark. Daisuke gulped and swallowed his shyness slowly.
“T-That’s my older cousin Dark…” Daisuke explained to the female with a shaky voice. Riku smiled at Dark with a friendly grin, “Nice to meet you, I’m Riku Harada!” Dark gently grabbed her hand, “Bonjour ma chere mademoiselle.” Dark said before lightly kissing her hand as if she were a princess.
Riku blinked and blushed slightly while Saehara snickered in the background, but Daisuke….oh boy he was not amused. “Dark! Let go of her now!” He growled at the older teen. Dark cast him a challenging gaze, “Jealous Daisuke?” He asked innocently.
Daisuke blushed even redder before saying, “Of course not! You evil, perverted scoundrel!” Dark ignored the green with envy redhead and looked to the side, catching a group of girls staring at him. He smiled and gave them a wink which caused them to blush and dive in to a fit of giggles and whispers.
Many people seemed to have noticed Dark and were staring at him as well. Girls were whispering and gossiping everywhere he looked. “I could get used to this…”He thought fondly. “Here comes Mr. King.” Saehara muttered. Dark blinked, “Who?” Saehara then pointed to the right.
A small group of people were entering the courtyard leaded by one particular male who Dark thought must be ‘Mr. King’. Dark observed the leader who had long blonde hair tied in a ponytail and matching golden eyes which appeared catlike. A couple girls and guys followed him, talking amongst them.
“What’s Mr. I Rule the School’s deal?” Dark asked Saehara. The brunette replied, “His name is Krad King, his name says it all. He is the ranking king at our school, all the girls love him and he heads his little gang called the White Wings.”
Dark was already getting an aura he didn’t find too appealing from this Krad. “What a bastard…” Dark snorted with dislike. Saehara smirked, “Yeah a number of people think that. Riku’s little sister Risa rolls with them, but she isn’t really a bitch like some of them are.
Saehara pointed in to the small crowd at a long haired brunette girl on Krad’s left. “I take it she and Riku are twins…” Dark blinked slowly. Dark’s eyes strayed through the small group looking at all the girls. He was about to turn back to Saehara but one particular girl caught his eye.
“Who is she?” He asked Saehara while motioning to the girl. Saehara stood on his tip-toes to see who Dark was pointing at. A smile spread over his face, “You’ve got good taste Dark, that’s Calista Chaynd, the hottest girl in school.”
Dark smirked and observed this ‘Calista’ with interest. She had long lilac hair which ended at her mid-back, sparkling violet eyes, a slim physique and a beautiful smile. “She’s hot…” Dark grinned to Saehara. The brunette laughed, “I hear ya man, but don’t get any ideas. Krad practically owns her, he beats any guy that so much as talks to Calista to pulp.”
Dark raised an eyebrow, “Heh, protective boyfriend huh?” Saehara laughed in response, “You don’t know the half of it man.” Saehara’s attention turned away as a member of the school newspaper started a conversation with him. Dark just stared at Calista a little longer before Daisuke snapped him out of his trance, “Dark, you have to go to the office to get your schedule okay?”
“Huh? Oh yeah, sure!” Daisuke nodded in reply before turning around to converse with Riku. Dark’s eyes continued to linger on the girl for a few more minutes. Risa was now talking to her and had apparently told her something humorous because Calista started to laugh in response along with the brunette. Dark shook his head, “No, no BAD Dark! BAD! Naughty thoughts!”
Dark then leaned against the wall and continued to watch. He noticed Calista was dressed in the typical school uniform like everyone else, he looked at his own clothes which were identical to Daisuke’s and Saehara’s. Except Dark had undid the collar because he didn’t enjoy the way it scraped against his neck.
Dark then took a moment to realize he was taking far too much interest in this girl than he should. She was on the summit of the social scale while Dark didn’t even fit anywhere hitherto. Yet his traitorous eyes kept straying back to her like a magnet to a refrigerator.
Dark continued to gaze at her with intensity in his eyes as the amethyst orbs lingered on the girl. And then suddenly he felt his heart pound as she looked up and noticed him staring….
“Shit…o.o” Dark mentally slapped himself.
However…at that instant…time stood still. He looked and her, and she looked at him. She had a surprised expression on her angelic face but it soon subsided as she smiled at him and waved to him. Dark could only gawk and stare at her beautiful eyes. They were deep purplish-blue seas, seeking to drown him, render him helpless before her. Finally snapping out of his baka-like state he flashed his famous dazzling smile and gave a short wave.
She seemed to emit a small laugh and smiled at him as she walked with her friends. Yet their eyes met and sparks seemed to fly from a strange connection. Could this be love at first sight?...
