~.~ Meiko's POV ~.~

I remember it like it was yesturday. I remember his innocent smile as he entered the front gates for the first time. He was really happy.

I look through our old school photos. For most of highschool, me and Kaito had the same homeroom. For the first photo, Kaito smiled. A real smile. After that, his smile looked like he was in pain merely trying to keep his smile up. His face would be bandaged, bruises on his face, arms, hands and legs. In a few other pictures, he would constantly be wearing long-sleeved jumpers or shirts. My eyes teared up just thinking about the reason for this.

It was late, and I was sleepy. I sighed, and lay my head onto my desk, holding a solo picture of Kaito in my hands.

~.~

I walked into the school grounds. I have been in this school since I started high school. I didn't see any of my friends. Maybe they were late. I waited, and saw an unfamiliar boy with blue hair walk through the gates. I wanted to greet him, but I didn't. I watched as he was looking around, and spotted me. His smile was very childish and innocent. Not wanting to be rude, I smiled back. He seemed glad, and walked off to explore the school.

After a while, my friends appeared and we talked. Their names were Leon, Lola and Miriam. We knew each other since we were young, and often sang together. The four of us loved music, and sang for as a part time job. I was the only one who could sing in fluent Japanese, as my friends could only speak in English.

After a while and discussing about what song we should sing, the bell rang.

~.~

In form class, the teacher took roll call, as usual.

After a while, she let us talk. I looked around and saw that blue-haired guy. Apparently, his name is Kaito Shion. He was very cute, in a childish way. I wanted to say hi, since he didn't have anyone to talk to, but I didn't. I wish I had. Oh well.

One of the lessons that I had was music. I was always excited for that. Me and my friends were told that we were the best singers in the school.

After a while, the bell rang, and we went to our classes.

~.~

It was now period 4 and it was music. As we waited outside the classroom, I saw Kaito walk towards this room.

"Um, Meiko?"

"Yes?"

"Is this the music room?"

"Yeah."

"Okay, thanks~" He said with a beaming smile.

The teacher finally arrived, and we were let in.

~.~

Since he was new, Kaito had to sing a simple song so he could be put in soprano, alto, tenor or baritone. Everyone went quiet, because we had respected the fact that he was really nervous, and let him sing.

He started to sing part of the song Jittering Doll, and most people looked at him with weird faces. They didn't his singing was good. Leon, Lola and Miriam started snickering, and Kaito instantly stopped singing, blushing at the embarrassment. Was his singing that bad? Soon after, Leon started to laugh, and the rest of the class followed suit. I nervously laughed, not wanting to be the odd one out. The teacher hushed us and told Kaito to take a seat. When he was at his desk, he sat down and buried his red face in his hands.

I heard Leon say:

"He's going to fail for sure."

~.~

It was recess now, and everyone went their separate ways. As usual, I walked with my friends to their lockers so they could get out their food and put their books away.

After that, we went to our usual spot, which was underneath a big, beautiful tree with emerald green leaves during the summer, crimson, golden and amber leaves during the autumn. During the winter, it had no leaves, but the snow lay on it in a neat pattern. During the spring, it has emerald green leaves with multi-coloured blossoms on it. It was currently summer.

Kaito walked past, and Leon sniggered and then yelled out, "Failure!"

Everyone stared at Kaito, and his cheeks turned red for the second time that day. As people laughed at him, he covered his face with his arm and over-sized sleeves and walked away hurriedly.

After that, I whispered loudly, "Why did you say that?!?"

"Because, he's gonna fail music anyways. He will most definitely fail with that kind of singing." He said 'that' with distaste in his voice.

I looked away, not knowing what to say to my friend.

We sat there as normal as I got over that event, and the rest of the day played out.

~.~ No POV ~.~

Kaito got home in a hurry. After that event in music, he had been repeatedly called 'failure'. He had been humiliated repeatedly.

He went into his house, got into his room and plopped his bag down and jumped onto the bed.

He didn't want to go to school tomorrow.

A/N: Hello~ I made this and then halfway, I didn't know what to write DX. Anyways, since Kaito was a commercial failure during his v1 days, this is what I thought would happen if Vocaloid's went to school. VOCALOID ON~!
