Chapter 1: New School Time
Nagisa's Pov
Hi! I'm Nagisa Shiota. I am in my first year of middle school and am currently attending Kunigaoka Middle School. I don't know anybody over there so.... I'M GONNA BE LONELY. Orientation day was just the day before so I got tons of books. I don't even know how or where to start despite the tour they had given me.
When I got to school I got a slip telling me that I was in the B Class. As I was walking I realized that... I don't... um... know where my class was. As I turned around the corner I felt a huge pain in my head due to the sudden hit and fell down on the floor. I looked at the person across from me while squinting. She had green hair in the style of pig tails, and yellow- ish eyes. Immediately after realizing the situation I got up and extended my hand to the girl. "Are you okay? I'm very sorry!!" I asked feeling that this was my fault.
"Oh it's okay it wasn't your fault!! It's my fault for not looking." She said while taking my hand.
"Well... I still think it's my fault... Hey what's your name? I'm Nagisa Shiota."
"I'm Kaede Kayano, but you can call me Kaede.
"Then you can call me Nagisa!" I said excitedly, "Um what class are you in? I'm in Class B and uh...kinda lost..."
"I'm in Class B too!! I can show you where it is if you want!" She smiled and I smiled back. My first friend... at least she doesn't think I'm some wierdo. Hopefully she doesn't leave.
After we got to class and sat down the bell had rang. We. Had. Barely. Made it. First period was japanese. Second period was science. Third was English. Fourth was PE. Fifth was history (worst subject EVER) Sixth was math. It's third period right now and I realized something: there was this one kid who was never here. His name was... Karma? I think?
30 Minutes Later
I heard some people talking about this "Karma" kid again. They kept saying things like how scary he was and that he's only in B Class for his violent behavior. Eh? Does that mean he's smart?
They kept going on about him, saying that they'd rather die than meet or be friends with him. I felt bad for him though. I only heard rumors but... I really want to meet him. Sure the rumors may be bad but I feel like he's being misunderstood.
"Nagisa-chan... Nagisa-chan... NAGISA!!" Kaede said. Apparently I was day-dreaming. "Geez I've been calling you for 4 minutes... you only have 2 minutes to dress up for PE!!" She said yelling at me.
"..." Then I realized I was going to be late again if I don't dress right now, "OH NO UHHH THANKS GOTTA CHANGE BYE". As I was changing I was just thinking... Did I really think about this Karma guy for most of the class??! Well gotta hurry or else I'll be late!!
I got to the gym with a few seconds to spare. Right when the bell rang the teacher started to take roll call. I think the teacher's name was... Mr. Karasuma? I don't know. Wasn't really paying attention. As Mr. Karasuma was taking roll, he called out Karma's name again and marked him absent. I began to sigh. I really wanted to meet him. For some reason.
Our teacher said that we were going to run laps then we were going to play some basketball. My favorite sport!! We had just started running and I was in the lead... for the first two laps. I had remembered I had bad endurance so I slowed down and just waited for Kaede, who was tired herself. She was one of the last people.
"Are you okay?" I asked slightly laughing.
"Y-yeah... I'm just... not used to... stuff like this..." She said in between pants. At least I'm not the only one. As we finished running I felt my feet shaking, and I was about to black out. Not now!! I don't want to ruin things!!I walked up to Karasuma trying to ask him if I can go to the bathroom, but he was talking to someone else already. As I walked up to him I heard Mr. Karasuma scolding... Karma? It didn't matter to me at the moment, because I needed to hide. Now.
"You can't skip classes again Karma! Do you want to get suspended again?" Mr. Karasuma said, or practically yelled at the red head. Huuurrrryyyy Upppp with your conversation ya dumbbutts!!!
(A/N Didn't want to curse...my improvise)
"Eh~I'm fine with it. It's not like I care about my grades or anything. Besides... doesn't look like there is anything interesting happening right now. I'll be going to the bathroom soo byeeee" Karma said waving. Why did this guy have to prolong every word with his hot- UHHH I MEAN DUMBBUTT LIKE VOICE. That's what I meant. Don't judge me.
I immediately continued walking to Mr. Karasuma and asked if I can also go to the bathroom. He then excused me and I ran to the girls bathroom. I then washed my face with cold water. That was close. I don't know why, but rinsing my face with water helps.
Hi. I'm Nagisa Shiota. I have a disease called Arrhythmia. It's when your heart beats in an improper pace: too fast or too slow. Because of this I sometimes randomly faint in the middle of the day. Then one day, I told my friend and she ended up spreading my secret. Everybody started to avoid me for some reason. I heard some of my classmates saying things about me. Things like "if we go near her we might die" or "we might catch her disease if we touch her!" It didn't help at all when I realized: there is no one on my side. No one to trust. Because that one friend betrayed me. When my mom said that we were going to move due to her job, I was happy. Because there, nobody knew me. I could start all over. And here I am now. Trying to keep my secret as long as possible. No matter what.

Edit: Okay okay, this is for new readers!! I wrote this is in like fifth grade when I was eager to get views and for people to appreciate my work. Now, I haven't updated in like half a year and I'd like to say my writings improved. I want to rewrite this book but not sure if I'll get to it as school's a bit stressful and I'm a big procrastinator. I'm currently working on chapter 22 (the second version because the first was a bit iffy), which could give you insight on how recent this is. Just wanted to say that the book's style will (hopefully) get better and how things are portrayed will (hopefully) get better. I'd like to say my writings improved but just by a bit.
