The Egotistical Queen

As we both arrived at the school gates. Me and Miku notice that there is alot of people gathering right at the entrance of the school.

"What's going on here?" I wondered.

"Is there a fight?" Miku asks.

"I don't know" I said while looking around. Then I notice that people are getting excited when they saw me.

"The king has arrived!" They said. And while everyone was excited, they then made a way for someone who I recognise.

"Not again..." I said while looking down in annoyance.

Everyone then was so excited when the person who approached me spoke.

"Ren-kun, welcome back to school." She bows with a confident smile on her face.

"What do you want now Shikimori-san, and don't use my first name! I told you this more then trice." I said with an angered voice.

"Hush your highness." Shikimori said with her head up. "There were alot of things that needed to be prepared. And now since your here, and everything has been prepared the proposal shall commence." She said while getting closer to me.

I stepped 2 feet backwards. "What proprosa-" I stop in realisation. "Again?..." I said while sighing.

"Ren Hiyama. I know you've turn me down in the past, and I know that I've been so inconsiderate of your feelings..." She said and her words made me lit up with hope.

Is she... Going to stop pestering me? I thought.

"... There for, if I cannot have you as my boyfriend. Then..." She looks at me and garbs my hand, I was then Suprise with her approach. She then continued. "... Then I shall ask my parents to set up an arranged marriage with you!" She looks at me with determination.

Everyone in the school was cheering her on while Miku and I just stand there Suprise. But Miku was even more surprised, but surprised is an understatement, she's more shocked then surprised.

"You... Huh?... What?!" Miku.exe has stopped working. "Hold up! An arranged marriage?!" Miku said while looking confused.

Shikimori notice Miku behind me. "Oh.. Goodmorning, you must be the new teacher that just started yesterday" she said. Miku was more Suprise on how she knew who she was.

"How did you know I just started yesterday?... And how did you know I'm a teacher here?" Miku asks.

"There were students talking about a beautiful pinked haired women in this school working as a teacher. So I assumed it was you, am I wrong?" Shikimori asks.

"No, no... Your right. I'm the new teacher working here." Miku replied. She smiled brightly, and the whole school was stunned by her beautiful smile, it made both the girls and boys fell down on their knees.

Shikimori looked around and notice that everyone fell down on their knees, not due to Shikimori, but Miku's smile. It made Shikimori feel jealous that Miku's beauty made everyone fell down on their feet. But it made Ren smile in happiness, Shikimori saw his smile and felt more jealous.

'This woman made my Ren-kun smile... That's not fair' Shikimori thought. She walked up to me and asks me a question.

"Ren-kun! Our meeting with my parents is later today, so you better come with me after school." she said to me before leaving.

"She's being so inconsiderate, will she ever change?" I said and sigh. I turn to Miku who is currently angry at me.

"Did you hear what she wants with you!?" Miku scolded me. "She said that she wants you to meet her parents! And discuss about the arranged marriage with her!" she said in desperation.

I just shrug it off and said. "I'll just avoid her and head home for the day. It's not like it's a huge deal anyways." I said with no worries what so ever. This made Miku even more frustrated.

"Listen, do you even know who she is?" She asks me frustratingly.

I simply nod and answer her with. "Yes, that's Rise Shikimori. Japan's number fifth's rich daughter." I said with a poker face.

"Number 3rd's daughter, last week my family supported their company, and with that their sales have been a success eversince my si-" Miku stop in her tracks before finishing her sentance. "Never mind, forget about that last part. The important thing is that, you must decline their offer for the arrangement." Miku said. I simply nod and walk towards the gate,

Before I could reach the the entryway, I heard someone calling me. "Hiyama-senpai!" said the feminine voice. I turn around and saw a girl with dark blue ponytailed style hair. She waved her hands in the air hoping to grab my attention, in which it did.

"What did I miss?" The girl said while panting heavily.

"Did you overslept?" I ask.

"Umm, maybe.." she said and laughs nervously.

"Seriously? How many time have I told you to always wake up early?" I scold her.

"Umm Re-.." She shakes her head and continues "Hiyama-kun... Who is this?" She question me.

I turn to face her and answer. "This is my kouhi, her name is Shizuka Shirogane. And her hobbies are sleeping late and play RPG games every night!" I said that and face towards her.

"Look I'm sorry okay, I mean like, it was double exp week after all can you blame me!?" She said trying to make excuses.

"Shirogane-chan..." I held her shoulder and release some menecing aura. "... Double exp week ended last week." I said in a calm voice. "And I'm pretty sure that it won't be available this week since it has already been a week" I said.

"Please go easy on me" She said while shivering.

5 minutes later...

Miku's pov:

Ren and I parted ways after giving my Introductions to Shirogane. I left and thought to myself. 'That girl Shirogane-san, she looks cute. I bet she gets alot of guys falling head over heels for her' I giggled and noticed something on her face. 'Wait a minute, why was her face so red when she approached Ren-kun.' then I realised something. 'If I were to be dating him, then surely there would be potential rivals out to get him. I just hope that he doesn't get taken away from me.' I thought.

Then I heard someone calling me from behind. "Amasawa-Sensei!" The familiar voice called. I turn around and saw Shikimori standing with an angered expression on her face.

"We must discuss something important." She said with her arms crossed.

"Class is about to start, why don't you head back to class before your homeroom teacher gets angry." I said with a serious expression.

"Huh? Who even is brave enough to get mad at me? And just who do you think you are telling me what to do!" She said, frustrated at my words.

I really hate using my family's name and fortune like this. "I'm Miku Amasawa, the second daughter of Misato Amasawa and the sister of the current head of our company Sakura Amasawa." I smirk in her direction and look at her reaction. She was shocked beyond belief, so she composed herself and get her back to her senses.

"W-well then, Amasawa-Sensei. I umm... I will let it slide just this once." she said while stuttering. "A-anyways I wanted to discuss with you something important but it seems like I've got to head back to class, as you said." she slowly steps back and ran all the way to her classroom.

I then giggled at her reaction. But then I looked down and started to wonder. 'Doing that really is bothersome, I don't want to rely on my family in any other way, but she was getting on my nerves, so I didn't had a choice.' I thought to myself before walking towards the faculty office.

Rise's pov:

I was running down the hallway in shocked of who I just encountered.

'No way, no freaking way! She's an Amasawa!' I thought to myself.

I entered the female restrooms to calm myself down.

"What is a person like her doing working here!? Don't they have enough money in order to support each other!?" I question loudly.

I entered one of the stalls to take care of my business. Just then two girls walked in the restroom, and I overheard their conversation about today.

"C'mon, have faith in her! I'm pretty sure she wouldn't give up that easily. I mean like do you realised how many times Hiyama-kun rejected her." The girl in blonde said.

I somehow felt a bit of pain after hearing that, but my spirit will never be broken.

"I know right, she will never give up on him now will she?" the redheaded girl said.

"I don't think so she will, I'm mean like, it's the queen we are talking about! Her beauty and smarts are both equally perfect for him! They both match!" the girl in blonde said in excitement.

"Yeah, now that I think about it. Her grades and his grades are both on equal terms, and he's quite the looker, same goes for queen too. Noone in the school can match them, well noone if you don't include the new teacher" the girl in red said with a giggle.

Thats not the reason why I fell in love with him in the first place. I only fell in love with him, because... He's not like anyone else I've known.

Flashback to a year ago.

It was my last year in middle school and I was such a loner, everyone had friends while I just sit alone in a corner.

I was always told on what to do, and bullied for not doing what I was told. Everyone hated me.

On my graduation day it was still the same, at least that's what I thought what was going to happend. People always pushing me around, I was always so insecure about myself, my grades and my personality... I didn't even thought that I was pretty too. I just felt sad about everything.

That is, after I bumped into this guy on my way to school. Who was crying...

"Sorry!" he said while wiping his tears off of his face.

"It's fine you don't have to worry abo-" I was stop by his hands reaching out to me. I was rather confused on why he would hold his hands out. Is it because he wants my money? "Sorry but I have no money with me today. Maybe if you co-" I was stop once again by his small giggle while he shed tears.

"I'm not asking for your money!" he said with a smile. "I just... Wanted to help you up." he said while tears flowing down his cheeks.

He picks me up from my butt and makes me stand up. I was confused on why he helped me up, so I ask him "Why did you help me up?" I ask the crying boy.

"Why?..." He said while giggling. "...It's common sense to help someone who is down." he smiled once again with tears. "Excuse me..." he turns around. "...but I need to go home" He said while his eyes are not visible, but I can see tears flowing. He ran away.

But before I could get him to run far I ask for his name. "Hey wait!" He stops and turns to me. "What's... What's your name?!" I ask.

He gives a warm smile and yelled out "It's Ren Hiyama!" he ran away.

After that I turn around and face my home's direction. I passed by a girl who was looking sad too. I decided to ignore it and walk home.

I arrived home and greeted my parents a... "I'm home" in a low tone. I walk towards a table with a note with it. I picked it up and read the words.

'Our dearest daughter Rise,

we won't be home till next week, keep an eye on the house for us while we are gone, also if you want anything, ask our butler for whatever it is you want, and if you want to buy something and you don't have enough, then just massage us and we will send you some more.

Love Mom and Dad'

"They left?... Looks like I'm alone." I said in a sad tone. But then I remembered something today. "Someone was nice to me... That's a first, noone never really gave me a hand to help. But he was different." I said that with my hands on my chest feeling it's beats going faster and faster after just one thought about him. "Why do I... Feel so happy to even think about him?" I said wondering. Then it hit me, "I'm... In love... Aren't I?" I said while still feeling down.

I look at a mirror and tell my self. "There's no way he would love someone like me, I mean like... The girl that I passed just now was way more cuter then me." I look down again after remembering the girl's face. Then I started to connect the dots. "What if... He cried because of her, but I don't even know if they are anywhere near related to each other so I can't make random assumptions." I said while looking at the mirror.

I thought of an idea and suddenly lit up. "Wait, I think I can, and I think I just know how." I said and looked at the mirror and just remembered something. "He's going to the same school as me. I know it because I saw the paper on his bag which was opened." I said to myself.

"And before I could properly be with him. I need to change my whole appearance, I also need to build up my confidance too." I looked at the mirror with eyes filled with determination.

And months of preperation. I've done it, my whole appearance has changed, instead of wearing my hair down with bangs over my eyes, I decided to put them up in a curly twin-tail hair style. I took off my glasses and start to wear contact lenses. My sense of fashion changed too, I always like to wear something so thick like a sweater everytime I go out, but now I wear clothes that is more thin and alittle bit revealing.

The first day of high school...

I was so scared of what people thought of me, I've changed my looks... But my confidance is still the same.

When I walked in the classroom, everyone just stared at me. I was so nervous that I couldn't even move at all. But one word made my whole body started to act normal.

A girl with a short hair called me "So pretty!" I turn to her and she looks away embarrassed on what she said.

As time went on, I kept searching for Ren Hiyama, I couldn't find him anywhere, but I did notice that his name popped up at one of the exam leaderboreds.

That time Ren got 5th place while I stayed at 3rd. I knew he was at this school, I thought.

For 5 months I still tried to find him, but I was always too distracted by people's compliments about me, I started to feel very good about it and about myself. For a whole 5 months my confidance grew more and my insecurities faded away, and I started to feel even better about myself I keep getting great grades and same goes for Ren. I was then feeling too confidant to the point where I felt like I'm far superior then everyone else in this school.

The day before the sports festival...

I was walking to the canteen area to find my friends but then remembered that they mentioned something about eating at the garden that was right beside the canteen.

I head out to the designated location. But then I notice that someone was there standing. He had red crimson eyes and red-brownish hair color. Of course in my eyes he looked very handsome, but I cannot betray my feelings for Ren Hiyama.

I instead walked up to him and kindly ask him to leave. "Hey you! Can you leave, I'm trying to eat here with my friends!" I said with a harsh tone.

He simply pulled the straw outof his mouth and talks back. "Hmm... Now that's not a nice way to ask a person to leave." He said with a poker face.

"Well I don't care, so just leave." I said again with the same tone.

"Well I do, so can you please leave me, I'm trying to concentrate on my book." He said as he looks back at the book.

I've had enough of this he's getting on my nerves right now!

"Do you even know who I am!" I questioned him with a frustrated tone.

"Don't know, don't care." He said with a calm voice and expression.

I was on the verge of slapping him. But just then a guy and a girl approached him. The boy was a white haired and the girl is a redhead.

"There you are man! Did you wait long?" the boy in white hair asks.

"It was not my fault that we were late! Sho-kun just had to try and flirt with this girl that was infront of us-" The redhead girl stops and faces me. "Wow is that Rise Shikimori..." She said and just notice my expression. "Wow did you two had a fight?" she asks me.

But before I could answer. The crimson red eyed one just got up and walk away. "C'mon guys, we're gonna be late to buy some new sports jersey that Milika-san wants so badly." he said as the rest followed.

Sports festival day...

Everyone was so eager to watch this festival. Of course I didn't participate since, I'm the queen of this school and my beauty doesn't need to be soaked by sweat.

The festival was going smoothly. The leaderboards says that class 1-E is in third place fighting to take second place from class 2-B in the track race. And class 2-C has first place since they've won 3 games in a row. The total games are 7. First is football, volleyball, tag, capture the flag, baseball, track race and finally the last event parkour. The last one will be set up by a team of constructurs that is currently building it behind us, and we will use it after this game is done.

Class 1-B isn't looking too good as they are in the last place, but they got up a placement after getting 3rd place on the track race competition.

Finally comes to the last event of the day. I take a look at the participants on the bored and notice that in class 1-B is being led by Ren Hiyama in the parkour tournament.

I was very excited to see him again.

"Hmm... Do I finally get to see you again? Ren Hiyama." I spoke in a villainous tone.

The parkour tournament gives alot of points based off of your best time. For 20 seconds below is 1600 points and for 50 seconds below is 300 points.

I watched everyone did thier best. But none of them manage to get passed 20 seconds below.

Class 1-B's lead was called and to my suprise it was the boy that I encountered yesterday.

'No way, I just talked to Ren Hiyama in the flesh yesterday. And I was being rude' I scolded myself internally.

As the timer counts down everyone wasn't actually that excited for this tournament since its hard enough to get 20 seconds below. That is until the run actually starts.

Ren then jumped over 2 bumps and summersault flips over multiple short walls. Watching him was so amazing, I was shocked to see his flawless movements, his graceful acrobatic moves. Noone anticipated this and was in a state of shock just like me.

As he reached to the end and pressed the button. The announcer announced his time.

"I-I don't belive it! He made record of 18.89 seconds!" said the announcer.

Everyone cheered for him as he walks down the stage feeling proud of himself.

"That was beautiful..." As the girl next to me said and faces me "... I um... But not as beautiful as you my-" she slowly stops as I stand up and walk out to the tent of class 1-B. The girl that was next to me is named Mahiru Ichinomiya and she is currently following me.

At the tent for class 1-B...

I came up and everyone started to glare, everyone except for a group of three people that is currently siting on a chair talking. I decided to walk up to them and announce myself.

"Excuse me... Can I have a word with you." I said with a small smirk on my face getting the attention of the three people.

"Oh, why is the queen meeting us here?" said the redhead girl.

"Umm.. Maybe because of him? Am I right?" as the boy with the white hair points at Ren who is currently taking a nap.

I had a deadpan expression on my face, I sigh and respond. "Yes... I am appearntly here because of him." I said.

"Ummm... Queen, shall I wake him up?" Mahiru asks.

"Yes, go on, wake him up!" I said with an aggressive tone.

Mahiru shakes him and his eyes just slowly opens.

"Hmm... Did you need something?" Ren asks Mahiru then immediately noticed me. "Oh... You." He said in a disappointment voice and falls back asleep.

I will kill this man if he doesn't do what I say!

"Hey don't fall back asleep!" I yelled.

He wakes up and asks me. "What do you want now? Can't you see I'm currently resting after those stunts I pulled?" he said in a frustrated tone.

"Look I know you're tired, but we must discuss about something." I said while getting close to him. He was then taken aback with my approach as I held his hand. His face was pink red in embarrassment.

"What the hell are you doing?" He asks.

"Listen I know it seems like you just met me, but I know for certain that we've met before high-school..." I said while he wonders in his thoughts trying to remember that time. "Well whatever.. Best to not dwell on the past for now" I made him snap out of his thoughts.

"What do you want, did you came here just to tell me to leave like last time?" he said frustrated.

I look down and.. "No, and I'm sorry about that." I felt apologetic towards him because of my feelings for him. Mahiru was shock to see me apologise to someone.

"Ma'am!... What happend to you. You were never the apologetic type, and now your apologising to him for what happend last time?" Mahiru said while panicking.

"Yes.. Since it was clearly my fault that I rudely told them to leave, I decided to give them my apologies." I bowed to show my apologies.

"It's fine..." Said Ren and continued. "... As long as you realised that it was a fault that you made and start, then we're all good." Ren said then smiled. That smile was enough to make me blush.

Then I realised that now's the time for me to ask him out.

"Umm... Ren-Kun?" I called. Everyone nearby us heard me called Ren by his given name.

"I didn't gave you the right to call me by my first name." Ren said. I simply backed off.

"Right... Sorry I guess I'm going to fast." I psyche my self up before confessing. 'You can do this, your looks and grades far surpass anyone, I'm better then everyone in this school so he would never want to miss a chance with me. Dating me is like a low percent chance.'

I breath in and out. "Listen, there's something that I want to get off of my chest..." I said while he looks at me with a quizzical look. I look up to face him and yelled out. "I'm in love with you, let's go out and let me be your girlfriend!" I yelled out and it was enough for the whole school to hear due to the echo.

The whole stadium was quiet before everyone decided to panic and scream due to my Confession.

This is how I became Ren Hiyama's girlfriend, and now... I await his answer.
