Jessica Hernandez-Loera [email protected] " The new kid" part 2 Hey everybody! Here's chapter two. Sorry if it's so short but I'm at school and don't have a lot of time to write. Hopefully chapter 3 will be longer. *sigh* Anyway, enjoy! And please comment on it. Thanx! Disclaimer: I don't own Escaflowne Once Hitomi and Yukari arrived at school, they parted and headed to their own seperate classrooms. Hitomi arrived at her classroom and sat down at her seat. A girl she knew walked over. " Hey Hitomi," she said. She was shorter than Hitomi and had short back hair. " Hey Dui. Why do you look so happy?" Dui smiled the smile that everyone smiled when they had a secret to tell." Well, I just heard from some of my other friends that this really cute guy has just transfered from another school. I also heard that he is coming to this class. Isn't it exciting Hitomi? I just can't wait to see him." Hitomi only smiled. This was the second time someone had mentioned this new kid and said that he was cute. Hitomi would have to see it to believe it. Once their teacher walked in, everyone took their seats." Okay class, I have some news. There's a new student here today." Hitomi looked over at Dui who gave her a thumps up. Hitomi only sighed and faced the teacher again. " Everyone please welcome........Van Fanel." At the mention of his name, a boy stepped through the door. The girls immediatly fell in love with him. He was a pretty tall boy. He was only a couple of inches taller than Hitomi, with black, unruly hair, reddish-brown eyes, and a tan. He had a soft look that really showed when he smiled. " Okay Van, please take a seat and we can begin class," the teacher ordered softly. Van nodded and took a seat behind Hitomi. Hitomi was amazed that he had taked that seat since there were other empty seats available. Hitomi noticed that many girls frowned when they saw where Van decided to sit. Once class was over, Hitomi headed for her next class. She didn't notice that Van was following her. " Hey," Van greeted. Hitomi jumped and turned around. " Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you." Hitomi shook her head." No, you didn't scare me. You just sorta suprised me. So, what city did you come from?" " I came from Hoikkaido (sorry, I don't really remeber how to spell this)" " That's pretty far. What made you move here?" " My dads new job. You know how it is." " Not really. I've never moved before." Van blinked in suprise. He began to laugh. Hitomi only looked at him. They reached Hitomi next class." Do you have this class?" Hitomi asked. Van looked at the sign." Hm, Algebra, no, I don't. But maybe we'll have the next class together." " Yeah, maybe." She entered without telling him goodbye. To be contiuned.... Sorry but the bell rang. I have to go. I'll have part 3 up soon. Bye!
