i: The Giggling, Wingless, Angel

He watched her, wide-eyed, as she waltzed down the school's crowded hallway. Her steps, so graceful, modest, so perfect, just like her. Long, silky, flaxen-blond hair, falling loosely down her back, curtained bright, sparkling, beryl eyes; a liquidized mixture of sapphire and diamond, swirling pools of the sea and sky. Elegant, dark, eyelashes, her eyes in unbelievable, culminating, contrast. Creamy, fair, porcelain-like, skin, a tint of pink contouring her cheeks. Thin, shapely, flush, lips, curved into an unsure expression. A snow-white sun dress, laced at the very bottom, that hugged the right places in the right way, stopping above her knees. Pure white sandals, with a bit of a heel. She held a notebook, arms pinning it at her chest. She looked so fragile, so angelic. She bit her lip, eyes of the sky darting to the thin sheet of paper with carelessly sketched, nearly ineligible, numbers in her free hand, the row of lockers, and back to the path ahead of her. Static blue eyes silently calling for help.

All she needs is a pair of wings...

She was gorgeous.

Cute.

Heavenly.

Absolutely beautiful.

Roxas swore that God was showing off when he made her. He wanted (needed) to get to know her.

The sound of whispering, catcalls, and rowdy chattering enveloped her. He wanted to whisk her away from it all... So he did.

Roxas waited until she halted at her locker, nervously fumbling with the combination lock.

"Umm...Hi there..."

She whipped around, azure blue eyes immediately meeting his deep blue. "H-Hi..." she was very, very, shy. He smiled, showing that he was friendly, showing that he wanted to help her, showing her that she could rely on him.

"Welcome to Destiny Islands High. I'm Roxas," he grinned widely, holding out a hand.

"Naminé," Her voice was soft and musical, sending chills down his spine. She shook his hand, a smile of relief and sincere appreciation gracing her lips. She looked so pretty when she smiled...

"Alright, Naminé..." She blushed at the way he pronounced her name, correctly emphasizing the "é." He plucked the sheet of paper from her dainty fingers, cerulean eyes scanning over the digits. "Lemme give you a hand with your locker..."

X------

"Hey, Roxas!" a hyper active, spiky-haired, brunette ran up beside the strolling blond.

"What's up Sora?"

"Nothing much..." Sora shrugged as the two headed towards the cafeteria. "Hey! Oh yeah! I just remembered. Kairi said there's a new girl," the brunette squealed, slapping himself on the head.

"Yeah," Roxas hummed. "'Met her this morning, helped her with her locker. Sora, I swear she looks just like an ang..." the blond frowned as his friend's amused chuckles interrupted him. "And what's so funny?" Roxas pouted, offended.

"I..It's just," Sora was desperately trying to recover from his laughter. "You just met her and you already have the hots for her..."

"What? I do NOT have the hots for Naminé!" Roxas bellowed as all of the students in the hallway immediately whipped around, staring at the embarrassed blond like he was insane. Sora was laughing hysterically then, leaning on the furious blond's shoulder so he wouldn't collapse. Roxas froze when he spotted Naminé among the staring crowd, blue eyes sparkling in amusement and giggling profusely.

Roxas immediately turned the deepest shade of red, feeling slightly faint."Crap..."

Her laugh was like music...

"Uh...Woops...I-Is...Is that her?" Sora nervously pointed to the blond clad in white in the distance, still trembling with melodic laughter...

"Yes, Sora," Roxas chimed, eyes fixated on the smiling blond.

Brriiinnng...

"Well whadaya know," Sora glanced at his invisible watch. "Time for lunch see ya!" he chucked timorously and ran off, fearing that Roxas would kill him. Roxas, frozen in fright and embarrassment, watched helplessly as the heavenly blond slowly approached him. He smiled nervously.

'Good thing she has a sense of humor...'

Mwuahaha. Yup, this chapter was a little short, I apologize. Please, review if you want an update :).

-Happy Spring Break!!!! Yay, no school!
