a/n: In this Nino is a hermaphrodite
There was defiantly something wrong with Nino, Ohno thought as he twirled his paint brush around his fingers. It had been a week since Ninomiya Kazuko had come to the school and she acted like no other girl in school. She seemed to purposely make herself plain or unattractive, tomboys weren’t uncommon in the school, a lot of the girls in Aiba’s house were, but Nino seemed to do everything in her power to make herself as unattractive and unfeminine as possible. Ever since he had first done her hair into the French braid she had asked him to do it again and again each time asking if it was possible for him to make her hair seem as short as possible. She wore no makeup but Ohno thought that her complexion was flawless without it and adding any colour would detract from the smooth cake batter appearance that she had.
There wasn’t much that she could do to make her clothes less girly but she did her best. The buttons of her shirt were done up to the last and Ohno was positive that she wore a couple sizes too big to make sure they didn’t hug her curves and unlike the other girls she didn’t fold her skirt up at the waist and kept it at the appropriate length just below the knee and just grazing the knee high black socks the students wore.
The school had a no heels inside rule but most of the girls violated that by having small lifts in their shoes but Nino’s were pretty but completely flat and Ohno thought that they were noticeable for their unnoticeable-ness. He had tried mentioning his concerns with Aiba Masaki the physical education teacher (and rumoured to be Sakurai’s life partner) but Aiba had just looked at him strangely and asked when he had become so interested in the students. The head of house couldn’t blame him for his confusion it wasn’t as if he had hidden his dislike for most of the air brained spoilt little daddy’s girls in the school but Aiba had looked even more confused when he said that there was something like a mystery surrounding Nino and he was determined to crack it.
“Why are you so interested?” Aiba asked breathing out a stream of cigarette smoke, as they lent against the wall in the smoking garden after he had told him about the suspicions for the fourth time that week. Ohno shrugged ruffling up his hair even more than it was already
“I don’t know…I just don’t get it…She would easily be prettier then Queen Rika if she just tried a little more…” He said with a frown chewing his lip wondering why he would be gravely disappointed if Nino did start acting like one of the regular princesses at the school. He smiled at the delight in a face when he had handed her the hard drives that she had asked for so she could play on the PlayStation and XBOX
“Wow, I never thought that I would hear you so interested in one of the little princesses…Should I tell Sho-chan to be worried?” Aiba teased as he took his final drag on his cigarette and then crushed it into the portable silver ash tray that he carried around. Ohno wrinkled his nose up at that, there was no fear that he would ever be attracted to one of the girls even one as interesting as Nino.
“No chance…But she is more interesting than the other girls here she shows less interest in us than Bunni…She doesn’t simper or do the whole I’m a helpless girl act either…”
“Most of the girls in my house don’t act like that either” Aiba pointed out and Ohno had to acknowledge that that was more than likely true. Although the houses weren’t sorted out on purpose they did try to put the girls into the houses where they would get the most benefit. Aiba’s house had the future Olympians while his had the more artsy types. Like Bunni who was an amazing artist, it was a shame that her talent lent towards Manga style and there would be no way her father, no matter how nice he was, would let her become the type of manga artist she wanted to be. “But I get what you mean…She asked me the other day if we played baseball…”
“What did you say?” Ohno asked not surprised by this, one of the girls favourite games was a baseball simulation where you created a character and made it live a career.
“Of course not…We play softball…” Aiba shrugged before patting his shoulder “You shouldn’t worry about it too much, you’ll go bald…”
“She’s in my house, I’m meant to worry…” Ohno pointed out and Aiba laughed brightly shaking his head before looking down at his watch
“I gotta go they’ll be coming back in from their jog… or walk…See you later Oh-chan” He said spraying his mouth with mint spray before pulling out a small bottle of body spray to hide the smell of the Tabaco. Ohno waved his colleague and friend off remembering that it was Thursday and he had his first lesson with Nino in a few minutes. Flicking of the nub of his own cigarette out and doing the same ritual as Aiba had to get rid of any lingering scent before heading towards the music rooms. He had never intended on coming to work here but after Sakurai had gotten the headmaster gig he had offered him the job and as a struggling artist he had been offered a bit of security so he had taken it.
St. Jonathon’s was a pretty place really and during summer and winter when the girls weren’t here it really was a place that he could really relax and enjoy himself. Sighing he went into the music room which were off of the main campus and walked to the little glass rooms seeing that Nino was already there a sleek black guitar on her lap her head cocked to one said as her fingers formed chords. The look on her face was pure concentration and Ohno felt almost guilty as he pushed open the door and stepped inside, the last chord was ringing around the room.
“You’ve been smoking…” Nino said with a smirk as the note died down and she looked up at him, her eyes shining with the teasing glint that she never did anything to hide and Ohno blinked wondering how the hell she knew that “You smell like you’ve just bathed in body spray sensei, my grandpa used to smell the same when he had been having a ‘crafty cig’ in the greenhouses…He also always had the same guilty expression”
“Ah, I see…” Ohno said and he flashed a small apologetic smile as he realised that most of her stories started with her grandfather in some way, during his research into her background he had seen that Nino was nearly always in the company of her grandfather. He had seen photos of her as a small child at the zoo holding his hand tightly bright smiles on both their faces, he hadn’t expected Ninomiya Kazunari to have a heart but he had been very clear that he had doted on his granddaughter and Ohno guessed that she was lonely now that he was gone. “I’m sorry…”
“It’s not my lungs sensei…” She said tinging the strings of the guitar, sending out a strangled sound that almost hurt his ear. “You know the risks and you smoke anyway…Although I could give you a lecture on the dangers if you want…”
“No you’re alright, but um…Parents frown on us smoking…” Ohno said carefully wondering how she was going to play this deciding that this would affect his opinion of her more than anything.
“Don’t worry sensei my parents would be more bothered by me playing the guitar than you smoking” Nino breathed in such a sad voice that Ohno’s breath caught in his throat which was strange but not as strange as the way his heart thumped when Nino gave him a breath stealing smile, her eyes flashing prettily as she held up her pinkie finger “We’ll keep each other’s secrets ne, sensei?”
Ohno laughed linking the pinkie with his own and nodding his head
“Okay…We’ll be each other’s secret keepers” He agreed ignoring the way his heart skipped a little at the touch.
TBC
A/N: I hope that you are still enjoying it…I promise that OhMiya will be together soon ^.^
