It was cold, snow covered the ground and Axel could see his breath while he was walking to school. Axel, a tall thin boy with fiery red hair, was on his way for the first day of his last year of high school. He didn't have any friends and really hated school; I guess you could call him a delinquent. You know the guy that all ways is getting in fights, skipping classes, getting suspended, yeah that was him. Axel sighed as he walked through the gates to the big building. 'THUMP' was the sound that was made when Axel bumped into another boy and fell on the ground.
"Watch were your going kid!" Axel yell at the boy.
"Oh...umm...I'm s-sorry" the boy replied.
Axel looked up to see a small boy, with blonde spiky hair. The blonde was nearly in tears, Axel didn't know why. "Why are you crying, please stop" Axel pleaded to the blonde from the ground. The blonde wiped his tears, and look at Axel with a smile.
"Hi I'm Roxas, I'm new, what's your name?" Roxas asked with a big smile. The red head blinked at the boys' sudden change of mood not realising the boy had asked a question.
"Oh, well I'm Axel, A-X-E-L, got it memorised?" Axel replied with his usual introduction. Roxas stretched his arm down to pull Axel up. Axel looked at the hand and grabbed it while Roxas pulled him to his feet. They walked into the school without another word.
They entered a hall, and sat down on the only spare chairs and listen to the teachers talk from the stage, welcoming the school back. It took about two hours until the introductions and welcomes were over and everyone was dismissed with their timetables. It had already been passed the first two periods and was already time for recess. Roxas came running up to Axel, "Hey Axel, do you mind if I have lunch with you?" Roxas asked with a small smile.
"Roxas, right? Well I guess its okay, for today, but trust me you don't want to make friends with me, I'm the delinquent of the school, you'll get a bad reputation if you hang out with me, so it's probably best you stay away from me." Axel told the blonde. Roxas eyes started watering again.
"B-but, I f-find it hard t-to make f-friends, can't I still be friends w-with you?" Roxas asked with his big blue eyes watering. Axel started feeling bad "Oh god, I hate it when people cry, because I just can't say no. Okay listen kid if you hang out with me then you can't come crying to me later okay?"
"Okay!" Roxas smiled at him.
Roxas sat quietly across from Axel, munching on a salad sandwich. Axel kept glancing at Roxas wondering if he should start talking.
"So, Roxas you said that you find it hard to make friends? Why is that?" Axel asked finally breaking the silence. Roxas looked up.
"Well...Umm...I've always been really shy, and really childish, also I cry a lot, they're probably the main reasons. Not many people like me" the blonde answered and went back to his sandwich.
"Well maybe we just need to build up your confidence, then you'll find it easier to make friends" Axel said trying to cheer the blonde up.
"Will you help me?" Roxas asked.
"Of course, we're friends now, remember?" Axel replied with a smile. Roxas nodded smiling back and continued eating his sandwich again.
