It's my first day of high school... I thought to myself.

"Hey there."

High school, one of the pinnacles of a teen's life. Parties, dances, school events, prom... is all in high school.

But I could really care less about any of those things.

It's not that I hate them or anything. In fact, I probably wouldn't mind them if I had someone to spend them with.

"Hello?!"

I get asked out by girls all the time. There was even a rumor in my middle school that there wasn't a single girl there that didn't. There's one problem with that, though...

"Are you even listening to me? Hey!"

I'm a girl myself.

You see, I was born into a family with three sisters, me being the youngest. My father really wanted me to be a boy, so I decided to "become" one, to make him happy. I dressed up as a boy, and did all the things a boy would do.

But...

Now that I'm older, I've decided what I've done is silly, as well as regretful. Because now, if I am suddenly change back to a girl, people might think I'm some sort of freak.

I'm scared to stop the facade I've kept up since elementary school, but at the same time I kind of wish someone would find out my true gender. It's not like I'm desperate for a boyfriend or anything. I just want to be a normal girl, and have normal girl friends like all the others...

"I'M TALKING TO YOU!!!"

"W-wha!" I was startled by the sudden outburst.

"Do I finally have your attention?" The girl asked me.

I had no idea who she was, or why she would be talking to me, so I figured she was talking to someone else. I guess I was wrong.

"Who are you?" I asked her. "Did I do something to bother you?"

"I'm Nina Floret." She told me, more calmly than earlier. "I want to ask you something."

"What is it?" Maybe she... wants to be my friend?

"Do you want to go out with me?"

"A-ah..." Not again! Even in high school...

"Whoa, no way!" A guy near us said randomly. "That guy's so lucky!"

"I know! That girl is really pretty..." Another guy with him added.

Come to think of it, she is pretty (I'm kinda jealous). But...

"I'm sorry... I can't..."

Without thinking, I ran away.

"Wait!" Nina called out, but I just ignored it.

"What have I done?" I said, after realizing what I just did. "I could of probably been friends with her if I just explained myself..."

No... That's definitely impossible...

"I can't believe it! Did you really turn down that girl?!" Said another unfamiliar voice. It sounded like a guy this time.

"Um, and who might you be?" I decided to ask him.

"Wait, you're..." The boy brought his face near mine to take a closer look, which made me blush a little. "Aren't you..."

"Hm?" Wait, does he realize I'm actually a girl?

"You're Res Lisaye, right? That guy who dumped all of the girls in the northern middle school last year!"

"W-wait, even people from other schools know about me?!" This is terrible...

"So, the legend really is true! Res Lisaye, the 'Lady Killer'!"

Legend...? Lady killer?!

"Listen, I haven't killed anyone! I-I mean..." I tried to explain to him. "I don't really hate girls or anything, I ju-..."

"Well anyway, you're pretty famous." He interrupted. "I'm Jarr Penico. My friend wanted to see you actually."

"Huh? Your friend?" I asked him, confused. "What for?"
