A/N: I'm trying something new here, guys. Trying to work in just a tad of a real life situation, because I figure I'll get things updated much quicker. I know I keep jumping from story to story, but I haven't forgotten about Evanescing Embers (although I may have to change some things so I have some clue as to what I'm talking about) or THLHTCE (Wow, thats a lot of letters, but luckily, the next chapter for that is coming up pretty soon!). So onto stuff about this particular story!!

This story is loosely based on a real life situation I was once in, so it's really close to me and I hope that shows through my work. It will start off a little happy, carefree and 'perfect', but don't worry, there will be a twist (... just not right now) So, just read it I guess, and tell me what you think!

Disclaimer: As I laid in my bed, gazing up at the stars, I couldn't help but wonder: Why don't I own Kingdom Hearts? And... where the hell is my roof?!

September 2, 2008

I can't help feeling like there's something different about Axel. I've known the guy for 3 years and i still have no idea if his freakishly long crimson hair is natural, or what the hell possessed him to get those two tattoos in the middle of his face. His face! Maybe he's insane, or something. He's always talking about something so stupid or fucking crazy, and it's stuff like that that makes it hard for me to believe he's one of my best friends.

Then there's Hayner. Hot-headed, angry, Hayner. I've known him for four years now. ...I think I labeled him wrong -- he's not always angry per say, just... irritable. Any wrong move could send him over the top. If you knock his pencil off of his desk by accident, he's pummeling your face in. Well... I guess that sort of does count as angry. He's my other best friend-- the normal one.

Hayner doesn't like Axel; Axel doesn't like Hayner. That's the way it's been since day one. Hayner thinks Axel wants to steal his best friend, and Axel thinks Hayner is way too selfish with me. When they first met, you could practically see the insults flying through the air -- scratch that-- they were tangible. I had to draw the line somewhere, so I made the rule that they had to get along, or i would ignore them both.

So, this is where we are now. The three of us, getting along (for the most part), and doing everything together.

This summer has been great; we've been hanging out around town, eating sea-salt ice cream, swimming at the local pool, and Axel even came with me and my family on a trip to Hollow Bastion (something that Hayner was none too happy about). My mom made me take some dumb CPR course a couple weeks back though; it was pure hell. The people there were boring, and the teacher -- Mr. Highwind, was it? -- was anything but nice. That class was a complete waste of my life, although I did save Axel's life when he started choking on that strawberry...

School starts in a week. I'm scared, but at least the hardest part of high school has gone: freshman year. It was horrible; the sophomores had nothing better to do then torture us innocent new kids, and it seemed like I was their favorite subject. I spent half of the year headfirst in a garbage can.

Last year sucked.

It's gonna be different though, this year. Hayner, Axel and I are going to have the best year ever.

Crap. Sora's coming. If he sees me writing in this journal it'll be all over town by morning.

--ooOOoo--

Well... -scared face- I figured I did pretty well with this one. I thought that having Roxas randomly write in a journal was a good way to introduce the story. Do you agree? Yes? No? Maybe so? Could be, possibly, omg? (sorry, chem teacher quote!) So, uh, I guess that's it for now.

Read and Review, please!
