Opposites attract

Hinamori Amu trudged her way through the busy city making her way to school. She had her waist-length rough pink hair forced into a tight bun which made her forehead look big and then stuffed into an ugly black beanie. Few strands dare brave hanging out of the beanie and framed her face, which was weighed down by her heavy, thick-rimmed black glasses that hid her golden-coloured orbs. Amu wore a pair of red dungarees with a yellow shirt underneath and some brown sneakers. She looked as though she had just ran through a charity shop and grabbed whatever was in sale.

Little did bystanders and her 'fellow' classmates know was that she was originally the godess of her former school, but things happened and she ended up like...this.

Reaching her classes on time as usual Amu slung her bag on her desk as the students around her started talking about Amu behind her back. This was usual for Amu as she was classified in the section of 'nerds'. There was this food-chain at Seiyo Academy, that kind of went like this.

1. Populars

2. Jocks & Preps

3. Norms (Normal)

4. Nerds

Hinamori Amu was immediatly placed in section four. Section fours, or 'nerds', were forbidden to speak to anyone in section 2&1, unless spoken to, or make contact. Not that nerds wanted too, as they despised the populars.

~the infamous time skip~

Classes had ended and pupils had been dismissed as Amu sailed through the halls acting care free as she turned a corner sharply and landed as a heap on the floor.

"Ouch..." Amu cursed as she stood up and looked for the source.

"Sorry! I didn't mean to I- Oh... It's you." She said as she eyed the populars she had recently run into.

"Watch how you talk to me you section 4 low-life!" The captain of the cheerleaders and head of the popular girls, Hoshina Utau spat, sending death-glares to Amu along with her minion sluts, one of them being Yamabuki Saaya, co-head of the popular girls.

"Tch, whatever." Amu said carelessly as she stood up and brushed herself down, grinning inside that she had managed to dent a populars pride! Amu walked of and saw from the corner of her eye someone watching the scene with faint amusment evident on his face. Tsukiyomi Ikuto, Amu recognised him almost instintly, but brushed it off.

Later that night at about 10:30pm Amu was lying in bed playing todays scene through her head, when suddenly her phone vibrated and started playing an annoying constant ringing. Not recognising the ID Amu answered cautiously.

"H-hello?"

"Guess who!"

"Rima?"

"Bingo!"

"Oh my god! I haven't spoke to you in ages, we have so much to catch up on and--"

"Forget that! I have great news..."

"What?"

"Me and Yuki are coming to your school!!!!"

"As in my cousin Yuki? And you? No way! This is too cool, when?"

"We start on Monday, and since it's Friday we have the whole weekend to catch up with eachother!"

"Great, I'll ring you tomorrow then!"

"Yeah, Night!"

Amu hung up and smiled sweetly to herself. At least now she had 'decent' friends to hang out with now!

The night was peaceful as Amu slept blissfully with happy dreams of being reunited with her friends. But there was one problem, how couldd Amu explain why she looked the way she did?!

~The infamous time skip~

Early in the morning Amu rose from the sheets as her rough pink hair tangled messily. She reached over her bed to find her glasses. She didn't actually need them, but as long as the changed her image Amu was all for it. Remembering today she was to meet with Rima and Yuki at the mall in one hour,

Amu ran to her bathroom and got a quick wash, then ran to her closet and pulled out the first things that smelled clean. It was a pair of baggy jeans and a huge red t-shirt slung over her. She tied her hair into ponytail and shoved on her glasses and her brown sneakers as she headed for the mall. Sure people stared but Amu couldn't care less.

Noticing a familiar blonde petite figure and a tall blue-haired lass ahead of her she ran upto them and waved a hand with chewed nails infront of them.

"Who are you?" Rima asked disgusted at the sight of this freak.

"Oh, me? just your best friend ever Hinamori Amu..."

"Amu? Is that really you? What the hell happened to you?"

"Yeah, Amu. Where's the real you?"

Amu gave a sigh and pulled Yuki and Rima to the nearest cafe and explained the whole situation.

"Oh..." Yuki was the first to 'speak'.

"Well, forget all about that, we're taking you for a makeover!" Rima grabbed Amu's right arm while Yuki grabbed her left and pulled her to the closest clothes shop. The two girls aimlessly heaved piles of clothes into Amu's arms then pushed her violently to the changing rooms. Yuki and Rima agreed with nearly all the outfits, paid and ran to a salon. (N/A: Did I mention Amu and Yuki's family are super rich? Oh, and Rima's!)

Amu was shoved into a chair and the hairdresser started work instantly. Amu felt her rinse her hair with warm water, then add shampoo and conditioner that smelled oddly like strawberries, then she felt her rinse her hair thorougly one more time then dry it. Once it was dried Amu reached her hand and ran it through her now silky, soft locks and it felt ever so smooth. The haidresser then snatched a pair of scissors from her work cabinet and trimmed 1 inch from Amu's hair, which rid of all her split-ends. Then, she pulled out a pair of curlers from nowhere and ran them through Amu's hair at such speed it was all finished and done in a matter of moments. By now Amu was ready to look in the mirror, but was swivveled round in her chair and pulled out of the salon by Yuki and Rima, and grabbed a taxi back to the Hinamori mansion.

Once inside The two girls grabbed Amu once again and flew up the long flight of stairs into Yuki's new room. They chucked her into another chair and pulled out boxes and boxes of make-up and strange gloopy stuff Amu didn't even know it existed! Forcing Amu to lay back Rima applied a thick amount of yellow gloop and smeared it acroos Amu's face. Suddenly Amu felt surges of pain in two parts of her body, her eyebrows and legs.

"OOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW!" Amu yelped in pain, lucky thing both her parents were at work and the maids and butlers had the day off. It was the weekend afterall.

"What the hell was that?" Amu asked accusingly, she would have glared but Yuki had covered her eyes with icy-cold cucmbers.

"Wax and pluck." Rima stated bluntly.

"Well it bloody hurt!" Amu shouted back defensivly.

Once they had finished manicuring Amu's chewed nails and gave her a lecture about nail chewing, Yuki, Rima and Amu headed for Amu's closet. They chucked out the whole contents and replaced it with the new wardrobe they had bought for Amu, subsiding an outfit Amu was to wear to school the following Monday.
