Akito & Hiroki Hashimoto
"Hiroki-sama, it's almost time for school. Should I go wake up your brother?" a lady with light brown hair asked, as she looked over at the teen. Hiroki, who was currently watching the daily news, stood up from the couch and sighed to himself. "I'm sure you all know how Akito reacts when you wake him up. It's best if I do that myself," he mumbled. With his hands stuffed inside his pocket, the teen hurried up the stairs and entered his brother's room. "Oi... time for scho--" he was starting to say, before getting rudely interrupted by a pillow flying towards his face. With an annoyed look, the younger of the two easily dodged the item. “Oh good, you’re awake… Time for school,” he murmured, picking the pillow and placing it on a chair.
Akito pulled the covers off his head, glaring at his twin brother. Akito was never a morning person, and he hated having to wake up so early just to go to school. To make matters worse… the first person he had to see was none other than Hiroki. Clicking his tongue in annoyance, Akito sat up and stretched. “Hmm how nice of you to wake up your brother…” he said sarcastically. “I was having a good dream you know,” With a small grin plastered on his face, he lazily got out of bed and headed towards the bathroom. “Next time, let those maids come wake me up. It is their job after all. Besides, I don’t feel too happy about seeing you first thing in the morning. Makes me want to break something,”
Hiroki watched his brother, unfazed by his words. “It’s not like I enjoy seeing you either… but because of your attitude, nobody really wants to come wake you up,” he replied. Shaking his head, Hiroki walked out of the room and headed back downstairs. “Akito is awake. I don’t think he’ll eat breakfast, so just let him be…” he mumbled. A grey tabby cat leaped down from the couch and meowed as it rubbed its face on Hiroki’s leg. “Good morning Lulubell,” the teen said with a small smile. He bent over and gave the cat a quick scratch behind the ears before grabbing his bag.
“Do you need a ride?” a man asked as he opened the door for him. Although he didn’t show it, Hiroki was quit annoyed at these people. It wasn’t like he didn’t have arms or anything… he could’ve opened the door himself. “No, I’ll walk to school,” he answered, “but thanks anyway Gin-san.” Muttering a few goodbyes to the others, Hiroki hurried out the door.
Akito on the other hand, was taking his time as he got ready for school. The uniform was certainly… disgusting. “Ehhh? Do I really have to wear this stuff?” he asked himself, making a face as he looked at his reflection from the mirror. With a small shrug, Akito grabbed his hooded jacket, and placed it over his uniform. When he walked out of his room, he was greeted by his dog, Kuro. “Yo~ Kuro,” he greeted. The dog barked and wagged his tail as it followed him down the stairs. “Oh? Did Hiroki leave already?” he asked. One of the maids gave him a small nod, handing him his bag. “You’ll be late if you don’t hurry Akito-sama,” she informed.
Akito tilted his head to look at her before bursting out laughing. “Do you know how pathetic you guys are saying ‘sama’ to someone younger than you?” he asked. He shook his head and walked out of the house. This was his way of telling them to stop calling him ‘Akito-sama’. It was rude… but that was just the way he was. The teen looked up at the sky and sighed.

Katashi Orihara
'Shut up... shut up... shut up...' he said to himself as the alarm clock ringed loudly.Yelling with frustration, Katashi grabbed the clock and threw it across his room. There was a small knock on the door before his little sister stepped into his room. “Ah… onee-san,” she sighed as he picked up the broken item. “You broke another one,” The little girl frowned and placed the clock on his desk. “A-Ami… uh, you’re up early,” he said with a nervous chuckle. “Really? I think it’s just that you woke up late,” Ami replied, showing him the time with her cell phone.
Katashi looked at the time, before hurrying out of bed. “Crap I’m going to be late!!” he yelled. He brushed his teeth, while at the same time, putting on his uniform. “Why cant you guys wake me up earlier?” he scowled. “Oh… we would… except you have a horrible sleeping habit onee-san,” Ami answered while fixing his bed. “Do I?” he asked before laughing. Katashi grabbed his bag and headed downstairs, poking his head into the kitchen. Of course his mother wasn’t home… but surprisingly, his father was. “Oh, good morning,” the older man said when he saw his son.
“Morning,” Katashi replied. “You’re home today?” he asked, raising an eyebrow. His father seemed to be lost in his own thoughts before finally answering, “No… I just came to make sure Ami was doing okay,” his father answered. “Oh… I see,” Katashi mumbled. The conversation between the two was always like this. Asking question back and forth, until one of them gave a response that just ended the conversation. Staring at the floor for a second, Katashi straightened up, “Um… I’m going to school now,” he murmured. When his father just gave him a small nod, he walked out of the house and headed towards his school.
