It's my first fanfic, so please be gentle :) Things might become more OOC in the near future. If you find any errors then please tell me. I will fix it asap.

A (not so) small change in one's life.

Chapter 1

"The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently." To be honest I can't really argue with this statement. In fact I believe Nietzsche was thinking correctly. That certainly applies to all of these people...

I go back to my sleeping position. My head is comfortably lying on my books – it's much better than the hardness of these wooden desks – and my eyes are closed. To be exact, they're not, they're half closed. One that were to be looking at me would be thinking that I am just nodding off. He couldn't be more wrong. I am just using one of my 108 unique skills. Hahaha, they don't know I am not sleeping at all.

"Ugh.. This Hikigani freak is pretending to be asleep again" - said one girl with a disgusted look.

"Yeah and he is having this weird look" - said another one with an even more disgusted look on her face.

Ugh. That might have hurt. Well. How should I fend for myself? Another one of my great skills comes in handy! Namely – turn "Ignore mode" ON. If I had a bag full of fucks I wouldn't give them any. Not that I know their names. I bet they're as shallow as... Damn. I can't think of a good comparison. They're just shallow as fuck. This worked better than I expected.

"I don't think it's a nice way to talk about a colleague of yours." - woah! that scored a hell of points. Who is this nice person? I gently turn my head so that I can see the owner of this voice.

It's a girl I know. I am sure of it. Well... She must be in our class. That's right. She's got to be Sakura-chan. Nah... Sakura-chan was the annoying one with glasses. The one with glasses always being so noisy that even Yuigahama seemed to be quiet in comparison to her. Right. She's not Sakura-chan. Then, who is she? Well. I guess I don't know all the names in my class after all. For once I am a little bit angry with my lack of knowledge regarding my classmates. This girl surely has piqued up my interest. When I look closer she seems to be not that far from cute. Much less cute than Komachi, but maybe two levels below Isshiki?

"I mean it wouldn't be nice if he was a colleague of yours, which he obviously isn't!" - said the unnamed girl. All three of them now giggled together.

Oh... I guess this happens. Well, once again I learn that one should not be deceived by the ostensible signs of being nice. Being nice is not nice at all. I chuckle slightly, but on a further thought this girl wasn't actually nice at all. So not being nice is not nice at all. That means nothing is nice at all. A not nice at all vision has just appeared before me.

Oi. I think the lesson will start any second now. Time to lift my face a little bit or Hiratsuka will show her not so nice side of hers. I think I am abusing now this phrase. Well... I don't care. It's my mind after all. My rules. My grammar.

Sensei starts the lecture.

I stand up. Finally it's the end of the school. Now just to go out and head home. Then I shall be blessed by the cuteness of my young sister and then... Oh wait. I've got a club I must attend to. Eh... I think I am exaggerating this time. It's not like I don't like being there. Surely, Yukinoshita's remarks are sometimes brutal – in fact they're almost always brutal, but I got used to it. Oh... There is free food too. I guess I really like my club after all.

"Hikki c'mon don't make a girl wait for ya!" - shouted Yuigahama.

Don't be so noisy women. I am coming. Just don't be so loud.
"Fine, fine. I am going..." She smiled as I uttered these words. My god. Her smile is dangerous. Remember it's just the part of her being nice to me. Nothing more at all. I must keep my guard.

We walk out of our classroom and head to the club. Silence. It gets quite awkward. Please Yuigahama, don't make me be the one who starts the conversation. You're the good one in regards of social skills here! "Um... So Hikki, doesn't it bother you that those girls were mean to you?" Ah. So, that's why she kept silent.

"Not at all." I said quite proud of myself. "You know it's not easy to break the shell of mine. My defense is almost perfect."

"Ehehe... That's rather sad you know... You shouldn't be talking about it with such a pride in your voice."

"Tch."

"I think you should try to... you know open yourself to others. This shell isn't necessarily a good thing." said Yuigaham shyly.

"I don't feel like. I am perfectly fine with it." I said mechanically. Am I really? Or am I simply afraid of 'feeling'.

"Hehe I thought you'd say so."

We're now standing right in front of the doors of ours club.
"Shall we go in?" I didn't know why she stood there so idly.

"Yeah, yeah, let's go in!"

"I am home" I said as I walked into the kitchen.

"Welcome home, Oniichan!" Komachi apparently was laying on the coach, while watching TV.

I slowly walk to the fridge and open it. I examine the content and then I sigh.

"Komachii, you didn't drink my max coffee by any chance?" I said with a slightly angry tone.

"Tehehe, I guess I did. My bad. Oniichan. But you shouldn't cry so much over the spilled coffee."

"You mean over the spilled milk?" I said curtly.

"You know what I meant!" pouted Komachi.
"It's just a coffee, so what's the big deal?" she said with a sly smile.

"It's not just... Ah. You know? Forget it." I knew it was pointless to argue with her.

"Oh... Onichan is so cute while being angry. That scored me a lot of points, didn't it?" said Komachi happily.

"It would if not for my coffee that you had stolen from me."

She laughed and then threw something my way. I caught it mid air. What is it? Oh. It can't be. It's the super delicious unique MAX COFFEE.

"That scored me a lot of points right now, tehehe." I couldn't help but smile to her.

"I guess I can't argue with that."

"So... Onichan?"

"What?"

"Could you do something for me?" not this again. All my alerts tell me to retreat. It's a trap!

"No." Yes! You did it Hachiman. Now just to go back to my room...

"You're no fun. First listen to it."

"I guess it's you again sending me somewhere to do something. You know I am tired after the whole week. Not only that. Today Yukinoshita was even more harsh with her remarks. Your brother has feelings, you know?"

"Yukino-san?" she whispered and then a one thousand watt smile appeared on her face.

"No it's not like it. Oniichan. Please go to the gym tomorrow. If you had a better body you would have better chances with girls and I don't want to take care of you when you're old and not loved by anybody! So please. Go tomorrow and do some workout."

"What does workout even mean? I am not going anywhere." I said coolly.

"Please... I'll owe you one. I just want my brother to look better so that he finds a good girlfriend. Is that a bad thing?" said Komachi with a disappointed look on her face. Her eyes were pleading... If I didn't do something very quickly I am sure she would cry the next moment. How can I even say 'no' to her?

"Fine" I think I am more of a slave than an older brother...

This is it. I guess you know what the 'change' is :) I really appreciate any feedback, so please tell me some hints and point out my errors.
