Chapter 1: First meeting

The bell rang. Time for him to begin his new job. Len Kagamine, blonde hair pulled back in a small ponytail, clean blue eyes, 21 years old, thin glasses which adored his eyes. It wasn't the first time for him that he would be a homeroom teacher. After all, his specialty was bonding with the other teenagers that he had met before. All these happy memories, which he had cherished in his heart since the first time he lay foot in a class, were gathering in his mind again.

Walking down the corridor to his new class, he couldn't help but being nervous. What if these kids do not like him unlike the others have done up until now? Oh well, he had always his doubts before entering for the first time a new class, but in the end he would always be proved wrong.

The director of the school obviously saw the nervousness which clouded his eyes and offered him a warm smile. He said that he would do just great and that he trusted him. Well, of course he could admit that he was pretty smart, being almost a genius and all… but when it came in socializing, he would always maintain his doubts.

However he smiled back and quickly noticed that they had both stopped in front of a white door. In the inside of the room, behind the door, was a terrible noise caused by all the brilliant little minds in there. He swallowed hard. The director of the school opened the door and both of them stepped inside the classroom.

Upon, seeing the arrival of the two men, the students all sat down to their chairs, immediately forgetting how to speak.

"Hello, students of the D-08 class. I wish you a happy and productive new year. I would like to introduce you your new homeroom teacher, Mr. Kagamine." He announced in his deep voice.

Len just put on one of his well-known heartwarming smiles and waved at them. "Hello, there guys. As your director has already said, I am Mr. Kagamine and this year I will be your new homeroom teacher. I hope we all have a wonderful time together"

The 16 year old kids in the room, charmed by his warm, trusted smile and his calm voice, smiled and chorused "Hello Kagamine-sensei"

The director excused himself, wished to the new professor luck and walked out of the classroom.

"Okay, guys, now I am going to read your names from the name catalog. Please whoever listen to his/her name, raise your hand and say 'here'." He explained. All the class nodded.

He began calling names "Hatsune Miku", "Akita Neru", "Piko (I dunno if he has a last name xD), "Big Al", "SeeU", "Gumi Megapoid" and so many more names till his eyes fell upon a short of familiar name to him. "Rin Kagamine"

He noticed a hand rise. The hand belonged to a petite girl, with blonde, short hair similar to his!, a pair of crystal blue eyes again similar to his!, with a giant white ribbon and clips on her hair, probably supporting her short bangs from falling on her eyes. Ok that was really weird even for him and he had seen a lot of weird things through his life.

She, on the other hand, didn't seem to care at the least. She had a daydreaming look on her face, which meant that she might have not even noticed him yet. But, she couldn't be related to him somehow … right? He knew all of his family members or at least had heard of them. His parents had both died in a car accident and from then on he had to live with his wealthy and nice aunt and uncle, whom he loved as parents now.

Yet, he had to know. One more family member seemed good enough to him. The more the merrier, right? He would just have to ask her to stay after the lessons today. He felt happy with his decision and then proceeded to bond with his students.

~{3}~

Time sure had passed by. All the day he got to meet his new colleagues too. Lilly the French professor, Gakupo the gym professor, Luka the English professor, Kaito the drama teacher, and Meiko the secretary of the director. He didn't get to meet any other homeroom professors or at least other teachers, but he was happy that he had made some friends in his first day.

The kids, also, seemed to really like him. They had fun and talked about matters that were preoccupying them or needed a better analysis.

The bell rang, showing that this was the end of his first day. Luckily, he remember about the big ribbon head girl … - I think it is Rin … he remembered.

"Ok class. Dismissed!" He announced.

Everyone had packed their stuff and had already left the class. The only one left behind was Rin. She was packing slowly and then he got the chance he needed, as it seemed that she wasn't in a hurry.

"Rin-san, can I talk to you for a second?" He asked her. She slowly raised her head. Light blue orbs looking at him. She offered a sly smile and nodded.

"Sure Kagamine-sensei" She said while approaching his desk, stopping right on her heels, when she was close enough (I mean to the desk xD).

"Well Rin, I would like to ask you about your family, since we both share the same name and we both have the same facial characteristics" He smiled, getting rid of his thin glasses and slightly rubbing the bridge of his nose, where they were placed at.

The smile in her face began to drastically disappear and a frown taking its place.

"No, Kagamine-sensei, … I don't think that we are related …" She hesitated a little.

Len, on the other hand, didn't seem to notice that the young girl in front of him was getting really uncomfortable as the time was going by. "Oh well then, could I please meet your parents?" He smiled a little more, oblivious to what was coming next.

"Sorry, they can't … they … they are on a work trip." She turned around and grabbed her school bag before running to the door. Once, at the door frame, she turned around to catch a little glimpse of her professor and then resumed running.

Len still couldn't proceed what had just happened. He thought he saw … tears!? … In her eyes … Why would she cry for such simple questions? This was weird … way too weird for his liking. He decided he would apologize to her for whatever he did or he said tomorrow. Now he just wanted a nice, long, hot bath to relax him after a day at his new workplace.

~{3}~

Baka, baka, baka Kagamine-sensei. Rin thought upon opening the door to her small apartment. After, locking the door, she hurried to her room, kneeled in the height of her bed, and rested her head on the covers, beginning to cry and sob.

She didn't like to talk about her parents or her family at general. Her father had abandoned her and her mother, when she was four years old. Her mother could barely make enough money for both of them to survive. Then, it was a cold December, when she learnt that her mother was deadly sick. She was just fourteen back then.

She had to work if she wanted to help her mother, so she got a job as a waitress in a cosplay café. She didn't get a lot of money, but she took as much as she needed for the necessities. Then, after a two months fight with death, her mother gave in. That was it. She was left all alone. She had no friends and as long as she knew her grandparents were all dead and neither of her parents had any siblings.

She was left alone in the world. She was afraid to tell anyone about her family, because she didn't need the pity of anyone and anyways, it would surely lead her to an orphan house. She hated that idea. She wanted her freedom, the only thing left to her. She still had her job as waitress and the money she made were enough to maintain herself. For once in her life she felt proud about something. No one should ever learn about her secret. No one. Which was why she was pushing everyone away from her.

She felt something warm and furry rubbing at her legs. She looked down at the fur ball.

"Hi, Neko-chan" She greeted her cat. The white haired cat with the brown dots and the green eyes answered her with a meow. Rin picked the cat from the floor and raised her to her hug. The little pet gave a light and affectionate lick to Rin's left hand.

"Don't worry Neko-chan. I am sure he didn't know about me. He didn't intend to make me feel sad." She nuzzled her head in her cat's fur.

She thought of what would happen tomorrow that he will see him again… Sure running out of the classroom like a maniac wasn't really usual for normal people to do.

Quite the drama we are living there, huh, Neko-chan?

That was it x3. Neko-chan is an Oc. She is Rin's cat and her best friend. She kind of is a mix of mah best friend Deppy-chan and her neko xD I have actually inspired the name from Deppy's cat, whom I call Neko-Neko-chan … so yeah … ALL THE CREDIT GOES TO THE CAT +.+

Nero-chan out ;3 ~
