Love or Hate?

A/N: Hello! This is my first fanfiction, so please go easy on me! I hope you like it, and tell me what you think so far! By the way, Tohru might be slightly out of character.

Summary: Tohru and Kyo have hated each other for years. Everyone in the whole school already know about this, but no one will ever tell them to stop fighting. After all, Tohru and Kyo are in the top two most popular groups of the school! But do Tohru and Kyo develop feelings for each other? If they do, they can't let anyone know, because that will definitely ruin their reputation!

Chapter 1: Just another normal day.

It was a quiet morning, the sun was rising, the birds were just waking up to catch the early worm. It was cold and frosty but if you were snuggled in a bed with warm blankets and fluffy pillows, you would feel like you were in heaven. Just like Tohru was feeling until... -alarm- 'beep-beep, beep-beep'

"Mmm.." groaned a sleepy Tohru while turning to her side to look at her clock which read 6:30am. "Already? I don't wanna get up...I wanna stay..." Said Tohru with an annoyed voice. "Eh, I still got time! I'll just close my eyes and rest a few minutes."

Unknown to Tohru, a whole hour passed and she was still in bed. "Tohru! Wake up or you'll be late for school!" Yelled out her mum from down stairs. Tohru slowly opened her eyes and immediately looked at her clock. "7:35am! Oh no, oh no, OH NO! I over slept...again!" Tohru jumped out of her bed and ran over to her closet to put on her school uniform. She then put her socks and shoes on and brushed her hair. She looked in the mirror and smiled. "Time for an other day in school!" She thought.

Like a bolt of lightening, she grabbed her bookcase and ran down stairs, into the kitchen. "Good... morning... mum!" Greeted Tohru, still panting from her running. "Woah, take it easy Tohru! Better to be safe than sorry, right?" Kyoko winked at her daughter. Tohru smiled "Same old mum." She thought.

"Here, I knew you would be late at waking up this morning, so I made breakfast!" Said a proud mother as she gave Tohru a plate of pancakes. Tohru had a look of horror on her face. She knew her mother's cooking was horrible, but she didn't hesitate to smile. "Wow! Thanks mum!" She sat down, about to eat her burnt pancakes. "Sorry stomach" She thought.

After swallowing her last bite, she drank some orange juice. "Disgusting..." She thought. "Delicious! Thanks mum!" Tohru lied while standing up. Her mother smiled and said "Do you want me to drive you to school? After all, it is already -" "7:55am!" Yes PLEASE mum, drive me to school!"

By now, Tohru was shaking, school started at 8:00am, she only had 5 minutes to get there. Kyoko blinked a few times over her daughter's outburst, when she realized she would be late for work. "Oh my God! Let's go Tohru!" Kyoko pulled Tohru into the car, started it up and drove to Kaibara High.

They finally made it to the school. "Thanks mum, I owe you one!" Tohru said to her mum while getting out of the car. "Just graduate, and you'll never owe me anything again." Answered Kyoko. Tohru waved to her mother as she drove off. Tohru then turned around and walked into the school building. Looking at her watch, she started to panic. "Oh no, 8:07am!"

As she ran through the hallway, she stopped to look at a notice on the school notice-board. It was a reminder about a field trip to the beach, she couldn't wait! Tohru then remembered about the time. Her watch now read "8:09" "AHH! Sensei's gonna be so angry!" She started running again and when she came face to face with her classroom door, she put her hand up to the door handle and slid it open.

"Sorry I'm late Sensei! I over slept and..." -sigh- "That's okay Tohru, just sit down !" Tohru then stopped bowing and apologizing when she realized the whole class was staring at her. "O...Okay..." Tohru answered shyly and embarrassed. She then walked over to her seat next to her two friends, Arisa Uotani and Saki Hanajima. "Hey Tohru!" Called out Uo to her friend. "Hey Uo, Hana." Answer Tohru half asleep. She popped her head onto the desk and let out a deep yawn. "So, you over slept Tohru?" Asked Hana, but she got no reply. Tohru had fallen asleep!

Sensei was getting angry at her and yelled "Miss Honda!" Tohru then shot up like a bullet. "Ahh! Sorry!" Sensei had a concerned and worried look on her face. "Maybe you should go to bed earlier Tohru?" She suggested. "Or maybe she should stop being such a lazy ass." That sentence woke Tohru up. The voice she heard would make her ears bleed for she hated this person and the whole school knew it.

She felt her blood pumping faster in her body as she built up more rage. This person was "Mister Sohma! Apologize to Tohru right now!" yelled the teacher. Kyo then looked at his teacher in disbelief. "There's no way in hell I would apologize to that ugly thing! I'd rather eat dog shit." Answered Kyo in his "As a matter of fact" tone. "Yeah, and there's no way in hell I would accept an apology from a bastard like him!" Yelled out Tohru, emphasizing the no way in hell bit to mock Kyo.

Kyo gave a dirty look over to Tohru. "Bitch." He hissed. "That does it! Both of you see me after class." Screamed Sensei whilst slamming her fist on her desk. The whole class "Oooooed" at this as to make fun of Tohru and Kyo. Kyo leaned back on his chair, putting his hands behind his head. "Whatever" were the words he spoke out. Tohru just looked down and whispered "Great" sarcastically.

"I guess it's just another normal day"


A/N: How was it? Please tell me the things I need to work on, and I don't mind flames. I really could use some advise, so if you have some, I would really appreciate it! And Please review too tell me how I went.

By the way, I'm only continuing the story if I get at least a few reviews, because it would be strange writing for nobody.

- Thanks. :-)
