Haruka Nanami brushed some of her shoulder length hair out of her face. She was making her way to school for the entrance exam and was in no rush since she had plenty of time. She had a small smiled on her face from the excitement of going to this school. This was going to help her get one step closer to her dream for creating a song that her idol would sing one day. She turned to see a young girl looking around.
"Hello little one, what's wrong?" she asked as she softly pet her hair.
"I lost my mommy..." she said before she busted out into tears and started to cry.
"Well lets go find her." she said as they started to walk down the streets looking for the childs mother. Fifteen minutes pass and they find the mother. Haruka looks down at her watch and realizes what time it was. She was going to be late for the exam. She turned and started to run towards the school.
When she got to the gate it was getting closed. "Wait! I still have to get in." she called when she was a few steps away.
"Sorry miss. Your too late. The exam is over." the security guard said.
"Please sir. Just make this one exception. I really want to get into this school." she said
The security guard shook his head before he turned to see the head master standing there.
"Let the young child in!" he said with a smile. He could just tell that there was something special about this girl. "But don't be late again." he said and Haruka smiled and ran in. She made her way to the testing room and bowed.
"Sorry I'm late!" she apologized.
"That's alright. Why don't you play a song and we shall go from there." one of the women in the room said. She looked like she was a teacher. Or was it a he. She couldn't tell. His voice sounded manly but his cloths shouted girl. She nodded as she walked over to the piano. She sat down and took a deep breath before she started to play one of her favorite songs.
When she was finished everyone clapped and she was accepted on the spot. She was so happy she couldn't believe it. Her grandmother was right about the song and was right about bringing her things too.
She was assigned a room and given directions. She followed them as she looked around the school. She couldn't believe the size of it. And it was sooooooo beautiful too! She thought there must have a lot of gardeners on hand to keep it this way. She took her last left and found her room. She took a deep breath then opened the door. The room was rather large with two of everything in it. She was told that she could do as she pleased with her side of the room. She could see a bunch of things already on one half of the room and made her way to the other bed. She put her things down then sat on the bed. This was going to be all new for her. Besides her grandmothers house she really hadn't staid anywhere else. Meeting her new room mate was also making her a bit nervous.
She brushed it off and got back up. She started putting away her cloths and making her bed. She wanted to distract herself till dinner time.

Yoshi had just woken up and gotten ready to head to school. He made it in time as the guard was making his way outside to close the gate. He walked past the headmaster and stopped when he heard the scene at the entrance. He turned to see what was going on before he made his way to class.
He had classes in musical history and then his singing class. Musical history was interesting enough but the singing classes were why he was here in the first place. He liked to practice a lot in between gigs and he took great care of his body, including his vocal chords meticulously since he made money as a model and actor. While the pay was great and he occasionally got to sing it was still not what he wanted. He had a promise to keep and he'd become a famous musician if it killed him.
At least that was the story he was telling people so they wouldn't know that he was an up-and-coming musical star. The last thing he needed was paparazzi and the media interfering with his studies.

Haruka sat on her bed just letting time pass. She was unable to sleep. She was still rather excited about the fact that she had actually made it here. Her room mate was asleep though and she really didn't want to wake her so she got up from her bed and put on her shoes. She walked quietly out of the room and made her way down the hall. Today had been filled with her class and practice. She played a few songs and had a good time. Her teacher introduced them to what they would be doing and the final test that they would have to do. A composer would have to pair up with a Singer and make a debut song as their final test so they can graduate. If they won the contest their song would be debuted. She was just very worried because she never composed a song before. She couldn't even read music.
While she though about everything she was going to have to do she made her way out of the building and down the side road. When she realized she had been walking for a while she had ended up at the lake that was on the school grounds. It had a single dock and a gazebo near it. With the moon light shinning everywhere it looked beautiful. She couldn't believe how wonderful it looked and it made her relax and forget her worries.

He couldn't relax after classes so he left his dorm after putting on his shoes and made his way down by the lake. He stood in his favorite spot to stare at the scenery, the gazebo. He simply sighed and stared a few hours away. This was the one place he could come to that always made him feel better. He could be by himself here.
He sighed when he began hearing noises that sounded like something approaching his little oasis and when he looked he saw the new girl from earlier roaming around. He hmphed before turning back to look at the scenery. So much for this being his fortress of solitude.

Haruka noticed a man standing in the gazebo and tilted her head to the side. She didn't think that anyone would be open at this time of night. She figured that everyone would be happily asleep in their beds. When she got closer she couldn't believe her eyes. It was that singer that was her hole reason of being here. "Wow, its you!" she said as a blush crept up on her face. She didn't know what to say or do. She never expected to see her Idol standing in front of her like this. "I=I didn't know that you went to this school. I'm a really big fan of yours." she said as she went on and on about different things about him that she admired and what not.

He turned his head to look at her with a frown on his face. He knew what was coming and then she spoke in that fan girl language he had grown to despise because it was always misdirected at him when it was his twin brother that was the famous one. At least that's how he had to act since that was his background story.
"Woah! Woah! I think you have me confused with someone else. I'm sorry but I was kind of enjoying the solitude and being confused for my brother tends to piss me off."
He turned back towards the scenery to resume his train of thought that she had derailed a moment ago to have a fan girl moment.

"Oh! I'm so sorry." she told him as she backed away. She didn't mean to to confuse the two. They just looked so much alike. She couldn't believe she made such a mistake. "Have a good night." she told him before she turned and left him alone. She walked back to her room and didn't say much to anyone who talked to her. She walked quietly into her room and took off her shoes. She changed her cloths and got into the bed. She hugged the pillow and soon she fell asleep.

He nodded, not even bothering to look in her direction as she backed off and walked away, leaving him to his solitude. After a while of star gazing and watching the scenery he decided to head back inside and try to go to sleep again.
He took his shoes off and hopped into bed. He stared up at his ceiling for a while while trying to relax. As he did he could see images of her excited expression as she fangirled to him. He rolled onto his side to attempt to ignore the picture before him and mumbled to himself as he began to drift off to sleep.
"I'm sorry. It's always great to meet a fan," he mumbled as he fell asleep.

Haruka woke up early the next morning to a loud thud. She shot up in her bed and frantically looked around the bed room. She saw her roommate spread out on the floor. It looked like she got her foot caught in her blankets and she fell on her face. Haruka quickly got up and went to her side. "Are you okay?" she asked worriedly as she watched her.
"Yeah, I'm alright." she said as she pulled the blanket off of her foot and slowly sat up. "Are you alright?" she asked when she noticed that she was looking really upset.
"Yeah, I'm alright." she said as she started to smile. She stood up and they talked a little while as they started to get ready for their class.
When they were finished they made their way to class. They sat in their assign seats and soon the class started.
"Okay, look your next project will be to pair up with a composer or a singer, and create a song as your first project. It will help you get ready for the contest at the end of the year." he said as he walked around the front of the class. He was a very pretty male, and even dressed like a female. No one thought it was strange or anything since a few singers already did that. It was just a way to get more attention and a lot of girls these days were a fan of that. "Haruka, why don't you come up here and play this song for us. This is one of the songs that you singers will have to sing as your first test." he explained as she stood up.
Haruka stood up slowly and made her way to the back of the class room that had the piano. She hesitated then sat down. She looked at the music and just sat there. She wanted to say something to the teacher but she didn't know how she would. That's when she heard the whispers start. She heard "She can't read music can she?" and "How did she get into this school if she can't even read the music." She even heard someone say "She must have cheated or knows someone in the school." She looked down at her hands that started to shake.
"Hey you guys stop it! She can too play." a friend of hers said. It was the guy who helped her get to the school after helping the child out.
Her roommate added in a few words too.
"Okay, that's enough." the teacher chimed in. "You can return to your seat Haruka." the teacher said and she went and sat down in her seat. She didn't look up at everyone. She had to learn, she didn't want to drag her partner down. She didn't want to burden anyone with her problems either.

That morning Yoshihiro got up begrudgingly at the sound of his alarm clock as he got showered and dressed. He was meticulous with his morning rituals since he seemed to get nothing but modelling and acting jobs which required a flawless complexion and smile. He grabbed his backpack and made his way to classes. When it came time for the one class he liked he was called forward and instructed to sing a specific song. He did so, luckily he knew it already.
"Thank you you may return to your seat," the instructor replied once he finished and he did as he was told.
One thing he hated was being in his own shadow since he had to say to everyone that he was someone else. All the praises he would hear was how proud his brother would be and how he was just like him. It disgusted him that these people would say such cruel things. He didn't want to be compared to anyone else. He wanted to be recognized as a unique talent.

After Haruka class was over she left. She didn't say much to anyone as she made her way over to the library. That's when her partner caught up with her. Ittoki Otoya was his name. He has messy, bright red hair and similarly colored eyes. He normally wears his uniform in a casual manner, wherein he neither wears it too loose or too neatly.
"Don't listen to those other students." he said as he walked up to her. He had a sad expression that was filled with worry and he felt bad that he was unable to do much.
"The truth is I can't read music... I never even composed a song before..." she said as she looked down at her hands. Before she spoke she looked up at him. "But I won't let that stop me. I will just have to do a little studying." she put a small smile on her lips as she nodded. "I wont hold you back with my inexperience." she said as her smile only grew.
"Oh, Its okay. I never wrote a song before either." he said as he rubbed the back of his hair. He chuckled slightly out of nervousness. No one knew that he never wrote a song either.
"What?! Really! I can't believe that. You look so experienced and you know a lot of what the teachers talking about." she said shocked.
"Yeah, but now we both get to do it for the first time." he said with a goofy smile.
They talked for a little bit and then he left. She grabbed a few books and got to work. She read book after book as she took some notes.

After class finished he kept to himself and put his books away before rushing out of the classroom as soon as the bell rang.
"I have to team up with some amateurs to sing a song? How ridiculous. It's going to be horrible and possibly ruin my fledgling career," he thought to himself aloud.

She spent the entire afternoon in the library. When it was around eight she was told the library was closing. She returned the books to their proper place before she grabbed her back pack and her note book before she headed out. She had forgotten about dinner but it didn't really matter to her. She had learned what she needed. She picked up things like this easily. If had anything to do with music she was able to understand and it stuck. She made her way back to her room. She walked in and her roommate was working on some of her home work.
"Hey, how are you doing?" she asked worriedly.
"I'm alright." she told her as she set her things down on her bed and sat down next to it. She flopped down and laid her head on the pillow. Things seemed to be going really bad. She wanted to practice playing the piano but she was scared and she didn't know why. She didn't know what she was going to do. This seemed to be going a lot harder then she thought it would be. People didn't seem to be as nice as her roomie. She didn't understand why people had to act the way they did.
But what really matter was that she was doing her best to prove to everyone that she would be able to read music and compose a small song for the sake of her partner.

Yoshi sat in his room. Being part of the S class gave him certain privileges like having a room to himself that was soundproofed on every side except the side where the entrance door was. He sat in front of his piano and began screwing around to see what sounded good together. He thought of his not-so-secret spot and used it as inspiration to compose a song. After he got close to five minutes of song written down, which took a few hours he would have to think of lyrics to go with it now.
He sighed as he took a break and sat in his room. He looked up at his clock and saw how late it was getting. He stood from the piano bench and got ready for bed. tomorrow he would start on lyrics.

She was having such a problem thinking up a tone to do. This was just really hard she couldn't give up though. She wouldn't give up. She was sitting at her desk and she had a music sheet in front of her. She was putting different notes together trying to figure it out. She let out a soft sigh after twenty minutes. She set her head down on the desk and closed her eyes as she just let her mind wonder.
She accidentally fell asleep and started dreaming about a time when she was young. She was making a song up for her grandmother.

Yoshi fell asleep on his bed after staring at his ceiling for another however many minutes. He didn't think it was very long because he didn't remember falling asleep. The next morning he woke up at his alarm and got ready for classes. He went about his routine and the entire day just seemed so mundane until he met up with his project partner.
"Did you make any progress last night?"
"Some. Once classes are over did you wanna come over to my dorm and listen to what I have so far or your place?"

Haruka ended up thinking up a nice tone to a song after her dream. When she was finish she went to sleep. The next morning went by rather fast. Her roommate woke her up and they both got ready for the day. She was a little slugish because of her lack of sleep but it was alright. She was rather excited that she finished the song.
"I finished the tone part to the song last night." she mentioned to her roomy as they made their way towards class.
"You learned how to read music in one day?" she exclaimed in surprise.
"Yeah, but I'm not sure if its good enough..." she said as she looked down at her feet.
"I'm sure its great!" she told her as they walked into the class. "Just meet with Ittoki and ask him about. I'm sure he will like it." she said with a smile as she sat down in her seat.

Yoshi wasn't paying attention as he spoke to his partner about the project and bumped into two girls.
"Sorry" he grunted before moving onward until he noticed his partner wasn't following him.
He turned back to see him helping up the girls. He huffed before walking over and helping up the second girl to her feet.

Haruka sighed softly as she looked down at her music sheets that sat in front of her on her desk. She let the notes fill her mind as she just thought of how it fit Ittoki so well. She smiled a little as he entered the room. He smiled at her as he sat down in his seat.
"Good morning." he said to her with a small wave. "How did you sleep?" he asked
"Didn't get much. But I finished the music for the song." she said with a smile.
"Oh! Really?" he asked "Can I see it?" he asked.
When she was about to answer him the teacher walked in. He started giving instructions right away. As he finished with his explanation on the project they were working on he looked at Haruka.
"Could you play this song for us?" he asked and she stood up. She walked over to him and sat down in position. She could hear the whispers already start. She took a deep breath and was about to play but her hands started shaking. They continued whispering things about her when finally she couldn't take it anymore and she ran out of the room.

Yoshi sat in the room after helping the girls and sighed as she got called to the front of the room. When everyone started whispering about her he sat back at first to see how she'd react to the situation. When she ran out of the room he stood and glared at all of them.
"You should all be ashamed of yourself. No one here started off perfect and guess what...Ya still aren't. I could still outplay all of you and out sing. How dare you make fun of a rookie just because you're not the newest person here anymore and who knows? If you could have shut your traps long enough she might have amazed you all."
He stomped out of the room after her and when he found her he sighed before speaking.
"Hey.....come on back to the classroom. I tore them all a new asshole so go back in there and play that piece."

(He's in a different class remember? Oh btw I LOVE YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH)
She sat in a field outside of the side of the school. She looked out at the animals grazing in the fields just hugging her legs to her chest. She let out a soft sigh as she heard the side door open and HE walked out of the school. She couldn't believe it. She didn't think that he liked her. He always seemed to have nothing nice to say and it felt like he just wanted to be left alone. She turned her body towards him and watched him as he spoke. She listened to him but her expression changed to sad as she turned away from him and hugged her knees to her chest. She rested her chin on the top of her knees.
"Its alright. I don't really feel up for class." then she realized that he had come to get her to bring her to class. "Thanks for the offer though. I think I might just go to one of the practice rooms and practice the song for the assignment." she told him as she rested her hand on the ground and used it as leverage to stand up. She turned and gave him a smile. "I will see you later." she said as she quickly walked off.
It wasn't anything agianst him she just couldn't go to the class with what just happened. She didn't have enough guts. She kept her eyes to the ground as she made her way to a free practice room and sat on the bench to the piano. She set the music in front of her and took a deep breath. Her hands hung above the keyboard as she looked at the music. She could easily read music now.
As she went to press her fingers to the keys they wouldn't move. No matter how much she tried her hands just started to shake really bad. She pulled them away and sat their staring that her hands. "I know I can play... What's going on?" she asked herself.

He huffed as she walked off, refusing to return to her class and face her rivals. Once she was out of eyesight he went back to his class. He walked silently back into his class and sat in his seat. Classes resumed but the whispers were about him now. He was used to it since he didn't get along with too many of his classmates if any. He stayed to himself since these kids were mostly a little younger than him. After classes instead of getting right to the project or homework he went to his get away to relax.
"Children are a pain in the ass," he mumbled as he stared at the scenery.

Hijirikawa Masato walked into the practice room that Haruka was preacticing and she quickly removed her hands from the keys. Masato has straight, dark blue hair, where his bangs reaches his eyes. His eyes, when seen up close and in chibi form, are revealed to be purple. There is a beauty mark under his right eye. He normally maintains a calm, stoic expression at most times and is not often seen smiling or the like.
"Are you okay?" he asked as he noticed her shaking hand.
"Yeah, I'm just getting some practice in." she told him and he nodded at her response.
He walked over and started to play the simple song twinkle twinkle little star. "This was one of the first songs I learned how to play." he said as he watched her. He could tell that it was a song that meant a lot to her as well.
She hesitated and after a little bit she was able to play it getting over the block that was preventing her from playing. He sat down next to her and they both began to play the song together. She smiled happily till he excused himself.
When he was gone she started to play the song that was giving her so much trouble. "Tomorrow I will do better." she told herself.

Once classes were over he reluctantly went to his partner's dorm. He knocked on the door after hesitating for a few moments, trying to imagine what it might be like inside. When he heard movement inside he took a step back from the door, imagining a pile of crap avalanching on top of himself if he didn't.
He was pleasantly surprised when his partner opened the door to greet him and revealed a perfectly kept room.
"I'm pleasantly surprised you keep such a nice place. A cluttered desk might be the signs of genius but I prefer a non-cluttered work space myself. It's expensive to buy alot of organization tools like filing cabinets and folders."
"Well my desk is cluttered but the rest of the room is anally kept since the school has such strict regulations on dorm maintenance."
"Well.....enough with the pleasantries. Let's hear the song you've got going so far."

Haruka spent most of the night in the practice room. She went to bed around ten that night. The next morning she sat in class and just ignored, to the best of her abilities, the whispers. She was called, yet again, to play a song but this time as the music notes filled her head, she let them flow through her fingers and through the room. Everyone was shocked to hear such a beautifully played song. When she was finished she stood up and bowed a bit.
"That was fabulous!" the teacher said as he clapped his hand energetically.
