High School and other Extreme Sports

Chapter 1.

Bump after bump, feeling totally invisible. No apologies either. Just get ran into and go on his way. Nobody at all, except for in classrooms, if and when the teacher called on him, and with the highest grade in the class or all of the teacher's classes, noticed him. The only time people in school really paid attention to him.

The boy acted so anti-social. He'd eat by himself at lunch, walked right to class, after getting textbooks and notebooks that he needed, without talking to anyone, and, in classrooms, sat as far in the back, and sometimes in a corner, as he possibly could and as much as possible. Teachers knew not to call on him when he didn't have his hand raised, but when there were substitutes that were filling in that day, period, etc., and they called on him, the boy did his normal routine of looking at he or she for a little bit, while blinking his dark blue eyes a few times, and then look back down, with pencil in hand, on the paper, in his notebook, ready to take more notes. Didn't matter what the situation was, the boy never really spoke much, unless he absolutely needed to, or was answering a question. Maybe he was anti-social…

At home, it was more or less the same. His parents were rarely home and when they were, the three didn't really talk with each other. It seemed like he would only talk to his brothers.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Sixth period was starting. He watched the teacher as she walked up to the board to start teaching the lesson. No, wait, back to her desk to do attendance. The woman looked up from the computer that was on her desk and called the dark, blue eyed boy's name. He raised his hand, hesitantly, and the teacher looked over at him with her light brown eyes. She smiled a small warm smile.

"Well, its nice to actually see your face." She looked back at her computer and did the rest of the attendance.

Once again, his head was down, eyes on the paper of his notebook, listening and waiting for his teacher to start the lesson. The boy lifted his head back up so he could see what his teacher was writing on the board and realized that the class wasn't as big as it usually was. He looked over, seeing that there was an empty desk next to him.

"Odd," He thought, "usually all the desks are-" Click! Clack!

The boy's thoughts were interrupted by the door opening and closing. It was the one missing, now tardy, student. The tardy student gave the office pass to the teacher and sat down in the only seat available; next to the blue eyed boy.

By the time the other student sat down, his head was back down. Only looking back up with his eyes, seeing what was up on the board in chalk.

The student next to him looked over at him, realizing, once again, he was taking notes.

"You know," he whispered, "I don't see why you take notes in almost every class that you have."

"'Cause it's better than being nagged by teachers who think I'm not paying attention."

Realizing that he had been ignored, he focused his emerald green eyes on the chalk board and tuned in on what the teacher was saying for that days teachings.

He glanced up at the clock, begging in his head, for the school day to be over with. His blue eyes looked over at the teen next to him. He looked like he had somewhat fallen asleep. Knowing that the bell would ring soon, he looked to see if the teacher was paying attention, and when she wasn't, he poked the teenager, with the eraser side of his pencil; not hard enough to hurt him, just enough force to wake the other from his light slumber. He brought his pencil back when he saw the other male's side cave in.

"Crap," He thought; blue eyes widening a little, "Did I… Hurt him?" The boy looked down and gathered his things.

The light sleeping student opened his green eyes and blinked to wake them up, as he brought his head up and kind of sat up. As his red spiked hair turned away from the boy, at his left, he saw that the kid had everything put back into his binder; including his notebook full of notes.

Not fully getting the hint, the redhead whispered to the boy, "Wake me up for a reason, Shorty?"

While lifting his head back up, he made eye contact with the other male. Sea blue to emerald green, but soon broken by the boy's blue eyes glancing up at the clock; followed by them falling back to the floor.

The older male's green eyes blinked at the younger one. "School is about to get out, is what you're saying?" The redhead said, still in a whisper.

A light nod. The green eyes looked back down at his things; they were still put together. He hadn't bothered taking out anything, before he fell asleep, since all that was going to happen in that class was the teacher giving the students a little bit of a review and making them watch some kind of movie. Nothing worth getting excited over, in his opinion, he was just excited that their break was going to start the next day.

Dong! Dong! Dong!

Everyone stood up and headed out the door. The redhead slowly got up out of his seat, and while doing so, he saw, and kept his eyes on, the blonde, blue eyed, boy get up and head into the crowd; that was at the door. The redhead could've kept an eye on him if he could still see the young boy's blonde spikes, but as short as he was and how he blended in with the crowd so easily, his emerald eyes lost him in the mob.

He was passing the teacher's desk, heading towards the door, until he heard his name called. "Axel, before you leave, please, come here for a minute." The woman said, while indicated with her finger to come back.

Axel turned around and walked back to her desk. He stood in front of her with his binder riding on his leg, with one hand holding, so it stuck out. "Yes, Miss Tifa?"

The woman smiled on the inside, seeing how the teen had been listening when she told everyone that instead of calling her by her last name that they could call her by her first.

"I saw that you fell asleep the first ten minutes that you were in here," She spoke with softness in her voice, as well as sternness. "I would appreciate if you would stay awake for the whole class period, starting when you come back. Understood?"

This was the one thing that Axel liked about Miss Tifa, she didn't yell at you, unless you needed it and get sent down the office, happened to him once before, just a stern talking to for less then a minute, sometimes a little bit more, unlike other teachers.

"Yes, ma'am." He responded with a nod.

She glanced over at the empty desk, that once held the boy with blonde spiked hair. Her light brown eyes came back and laid on the teen's red spiked hair. "Mr. Lea…"

He stopped in front of the door. "Damn! So close to getting out of this hell hole." Axel turned around, his back laying against the door when he was finished. "Yea?"

"I know you're probably going to say, "I don't know", but do you know whose sweat shirt that might be perhaps?" The woman pointed a skinny finger at the empty desk.

Looking over at the desk, Axel tilted his head a little bit, not enough that you could tell, and he got to wondering why the kid wouldn't talk to him.

"I'm not to sure," The redhead responded as he got to the desk and picked up the jacket. "But, I think I might have an idea…"

"Roxas Strife… That's what that kid's name was! Wait, I thought Cloud had only one brother."

"Did you figure out whose coat it is?"

"Yea," He went to the teacher's desk, once again, "It's, uh, what's that kid's name that always sits there?" Axel said, pretending to not have it memorized, and glanced down at the tag again. "Oh, that's right, Roxas Strife."

"Oh is it now?" The teacher stood up, "I'll hold on to it until the break is over." She held out her hand, indicating that she would take it.

"No, it's fine," The student slung the jacket over his right shoulder, "I'm friends with his eldest brother and I know where they live, so I don't think he'll mind if he gets an unsuspected visit from me."

Miss Tifa brought back her arm, hearing that Axel was rejecting her wish to take it, and sat back down in her chair, getting things that she needed up on her monitor. "Alright. You can go now."

The redhead left as quickly as possible, trying not to show it, without second thoughts. He wanted out of that little hell hole, on earth, even though he was just going to enter a bigger chunk of it, until he got out of the building.

Axel opened his locker and took out his backpack and jacket while slamming his locker back shut. "Maybe this break will go as slowly as possible so I can break that kid out of his shell…" He thought with a smirk.
