Hey everyone I'm back with a new story to tell. I finally finished this story that i started last year in october. I finally decided to start typing to put it on here. Anyway I don't own ouran, but I do own the plot and characters Alyssa and Morgan. Also the title of the story is the same title as the song Weightless by All time low...very good band btw, and as much as i wished i owned the song and band i don't. But the song does have some of the attitude as the story...or at least thats the way my friend and I saw it. So please enjoy this and please review!

Thursday September 14

"Attention students, an assembly will take place at the end of the day. We will be calling you down by class. Thank you for your time."

The five friends in Chemistry 2 went back to working after the announcement; well mostly talking. "Hey Morgan do you know what the assembly is about?" asked Alyssa, trying to pull her straightened brown hair into a ponytail. Morgan shook her head and answered, "No." Alyssa turned toward her other friend, "Caitlyn, Do you know?" She also shook her head. "NuNu" Nurashia, nunu for short, said, "No" "Amber?" "Not at all." The five friends went back to work after that.

"Okay this chemistry makes no sense at all." exclaimed Caitlyn. "Here is there anything in here that can help you?" Alyssa asked showing her the notes from the section. The thing with Caitlyn is she doesn't like to take notes because she wants to listen to the teacher. Alyssa likes to take notes so she can drown out the teacher. Caitlyn read over Alyssa's notes and began to write down some stuff while the other four copied what she wrote. "Hey guys. It's almost time to go." Indeed it was for the clock read 11:36. The five girls gathered up their stuff and headed towards the door.

The day at New London High School was like any other day for the average teenager. Pretty boring with a whole lot of homework but there was some excitement for the random upcoming assembly. It even changed the life of two of those five friends. It was in the middle of last period when they started calling people down to the gym. Students filed in and sat down on the red bleachers, chattering away while waiting for , the principal, to begin.

"Okay students thanks for coming down. We're going to get started if you'll get settled down." Soon the chattering of the teens began to die down. "Thanks okay, New London is participating in a brand new program called Around the World. Two lucky students from each grade will spend the rest of their high school years in a different school, in a different country. Isn't this exciting?!"

Some of the kids wooed but none were to happy being there; the only good thing was getting out of class. "I can feel your excitement. Now the students chosen to go do not have to pay for this. Investing in this program means that the company will pay for it all. You will not be staying with a host family though. Most of the older, more mature students will be staying on their own. Not only will they be learning abroad, but they will be learning important skills so they know what it's like to stay on their own. Those who get to stay in the apartment will be upperclassmen, meaning juniors and seniors. Plus we will be mailing $500 a week to you to spend on clothing, food, and the nessacities. Now some of these schools require a uniform…"

Most students groaned at the mention of uniforms. "But let me finish. I have talked to all the schools and they are allowing you to wear your everyday clothing sense we're spending so much on sending you there. But just because you get to wear your own clothing, that does not mean you get to wear whatever you want. You must still abide by the school's dress code. There are eight students going. When I call your name, come on down."

Mr. Ramano pulled out a sheet of paper from his pocket. "For the freshman, Mark Anthony and Jacob Byron. They will be going to South America. For the sophomores Michael Suri and Maggie Rose will be going to New Zealand. For the juniors, Morgan Trimmer and Alyssa Gregory, who will be going to Japan to attend Ouran Academy." Alyssa and Morgan looked at each other in shock. The two friends would have never guessed that they would go to Japan for the rest of their high school lives.

"Are you going to come down?" Alyssa slowly got up with Morgan following her. They didn't hear what the names to the seniors were; they really didn't want to. "These lucky will be departing on Wednesday of next week. Give'em a round of applause."

The students started clapping with very little energy. "Okay students dismissed. Except for the eight I called down. I would like them to go to my office." The eight walked to his office and sat in the seats…well there were two seats, so some sat on armchairs while others stood. Mr. Ramano walked in soon after. As he sat down, he went to speak but Mark interrupted him by saying, "Silence, I go like this neoroom!"

That earned him a slap in the arm from Morgan and Alyssa. "Anyway, you need to pack everything. It's like you're going to live on your own, like you're moving out of your parents place. You guys get to skip school until Wednesday to pack all of your things."

"But what if we don't wanna leave. What if we don't wanna go? Do we even have a choice?" Alyssa asked. "Well to answer your question, no you don't have a choice since we've already enrolled you and invested a lot of money into this program." She looked crestfallen but there was nothing they could do.

"Now I've talked to your parents already and they think it's a good idea. You do get to come back two weeks a year for visits. That's about all I have to tell you guys. Any questions?" No one answered. "Okay you're free to go."

Morgan and Alyssa went to grab their stuff from their lockers and headed home. "This is so stupid!" Morgan exclaimed. "I know! I would like to go and explore, I mean it's Japan, but I don't wanna leave this place just yet." "I know it sucks."

Alyssa sighed. "Well at least we don't have to come to school until Wednesday." Alyssa said trying to lighten the mood. "Yea but what about everyone here we're going to be leaving behind? NuNu, Caitlyn, Amber, Andy, I would say Mark and Jacob but they're going to be leaving too, and our family."

"Let's not worry about it now. Let's just get home." The two friends walked to Morgan's tealish blue cavalier. Morgan dropped Alyssa off at her house and then Morgan went to her own. The next few days were killer. Every student had quota of what they had to have packed each day and have it sent to the school to be shipped off to the apartment in which they would be staying in.

The days went by fast and then Wednesday came all too soon. The eight students would be taken to the airport by the school van so all of them could bid farewell to all their fellow classmates. Hugs and tears were shared and soon after, the students piled into the school van. The drive to the airport took forever due to the fact that they never wanted it to arrive to begin with. The eight boarded their separate planes two by two.

Morgan and Alyssa were somewhat terrified of planes and were nervous about the trip, but it wasn't as bad as they thought. Once they landed, someone escorted them to a midnight blue eclipse. Alyssa and Morgan stared at the car in confusion.

The escort spoke up, "This is the transportation that your school has provided for you. You guys can drive right?" Morgan nodded her head yes. "Alright here's the directions to the apartment, the directions to your new school and the keys to the car. Any questions?"

The duo shook their heads no. "Okay you're on your own." The dude left them standing there looking at the car, trying to figure out what they were going to do next. After about ten minutes, people started to stare so they finally got in the car and drove away. The clock read 4:00pm Thursday afternoon. Finding the apartment was pretty easy.

"Hey Morgan, do you think we should go shopping for food and what not?" "Yea…but where?" "Well on the way here I saw a small market…we can go there." Morgan pondered this for a moment then said, "Okay but first let's get unpacked." She unlocked the door to the apartment and they went inside.

It was a very plain and simple apartment, very original but that was to be expected. It had two bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchen and a living room, a basic common living style to a lot of people. All the furniture in the place was provided. The walls were white and bare with no creativity anywhere but it gave the duo a chance to decorate it themselves and how they wanted it. "So we may need to decorate this place to actually make living here bearable." Morgan exclaimed to Alyssa. "This is true, but we'll worry about that later." She answered back.

Alyssa walked over to one of the dozens of bags that were brought in, taking out a set of speakers. "Hey Morgan, toss me your phone." Morgan did as Alyssa said and threw her the phone. Alyssa plugged it into the speakers and starting listening to 'Lips like Morphine' by Kill Hannah. They began unpacking as songs played continuously until they were finished. The last song to play was 'Build God then We'll Talk' by Panic! At the Disco. The rest of the day was spent shopping for groceries. The two crashed around 9:00, dreading their first day of school yet in the back of their mind was a little excitement.

So, what did ya'll think? Interesting, boring, maybe even a bit depressing. Tell me your opinions! Please review and i hoped you enjoyed it.
