High School

Ren walked into the school grounds ‘Back at Akemi High once again’ He looked up into the sky ’I wonder if anything special will happen this year, or if it’s going to be the exact same thing as the last couple of years’ He thought while walking fully packed with five different bags on him. It looked like someone had attached at least two of them to his body with glue. The four of the bags wasn’t the usual bags of clothes that most of the students arrived with; they were all instrument bags or cases. Throughout his years on Akemi High, each summer he had taken a job and worked to be able to buy a new instrument, which he used all of his remaining time learning to play, in order to make music to his two little sisters. This summer he had bought the fourth instrument; a keytar. Now he had an el-bass, a violin, a cello and the new keytar. The last bag he was wearing was the one filled with all of his clothes and personal belongings. It seemed like a rather hard job walking with all those bags and cases. Especially because of the el-bass and the cello, but he somehow managed to get to the school with everything.

’I wonder which dome I’m going to sleep in this year’ Ren hadn’t used time to open the envelope from the school before he needed to go. Actually he liked surprises and used all of his might to get as many as he could through his life. It was what he would call the spice in his life. While Ren was thinking he saw a person seeming quite lost in the middle of the huge hallway placed right after the entrance to the school grounds. “Yo bro, seems like you could use a hand yeah?” Ren put down the two bags he had in his hands. “If you are looking for the boys dorms you just need to walk down this hallway until you are able to get outside again then you arrive at this huge park-like area. Then you’ll just have to turn left when you get to a crossroad, it leads directly to the boys dorms.” Ren took his bags once again and started walking. “If you ever need anything, just come to the music club!” He shouted to the student when he was a bit away from him.

As Ren finally was at the crossroad, he had told the other student about, he put down his bags from his hands again and found the envelope that told him where he would stay this year ’I hope I will be staying with another musician this year’ He thought while opening the envelope. He read the paper once ’Erm… What?’ He read the paper twice ‘What the?’ He read the paper one last time and then fell to his knees. “THANK YOU GOD!” He shouted out with his hands in the air “I WILL NEVER DOUBT THOU EVER AGAIN!” With those words said he rose from the ground took his bags and walked at a rather fast speed.

’All those beautiful eyes looking at me… I’m in heaven’ He thought while walking inside the girl dorm he was supposed to stay in for the rest of the year. ’I wonder what kind of person I’m going to live with.’ He had a rather perverted smile on his lips ’Maybe a childish blond? A short tempered redhead? A cold brunette?’ He opened the door to his room ’So many opportunities.’ Ren did really like the opposite sex, but truly he would never go further than a small hit in the butt… Maybe a little lift in the skirt… But never further! He had become like this because everyone looked at him as if he was a player, so he gave them what they wanted, at least so that they thought he was a player. He put down all of the instruments in one of the corners of the room “This will officially be the music corner!” He said out loud and started unpacking his instruments putting them on stands. ’I wonder if I will ever be able to sleep while living here… At the boys dorm only very few lock their doors at night’ He had a hard time controlling his drool with those perverted thoughts. What would you expect? He is a boy at his best age… Youth.

Ren took one step back in order to see how the new music corner was beginning to look like, without noticing the door to the room opening. He felt a light tap on his shoulder. He turned around and saw Tomona standing right behind him, looking at him with eyes that didn’t like what they were seeing. ’Short haired brunette.’ Ren had seen the girl before, but didn’t know her name nor her personality. He took a fast look up and down at her ’Well made body, not too much not too little.’ He smiled at the girl “Name’s Ren.” He knelt down and took her hand “Can I ask what the beautiful girl in front of me is named?”

He noticed the headphones around Tomona’s neck ’I hope it isn’t pop she is listening to.’ Ren didn’t like the music the majority of the youth was listening to; he actually didn’t like anything about the majority of the youth. It was too plain, too simple and way too boring. Ren rose from his position. As he was standing the entire gentleman attitude, he had used to introduce himself with, disappeared “I can see you like music yeah? What kind of music are you listening to?”

Deep inside, Ren hoped that this girl didn’t trust the gossip around the school. Like the one saying he had been together with forty girls last year, or the one about him making two girls pregnant at the same time. He had no idea of how or who had said such things about him. He had never been in a relationship with a girl his entire life, and gossip like that had been good at keeping it that way. Life of a musician can surely be rough.
