Everywhere: an odd friendship

A Wednesday morning on August 28 Namine woke up to hear her alarm clock ringing. Today was the first day of school at the school called Monroe High School; this was her first day of High school. She had completed eighth grade and she was a bit nervous. The blonde haired girl shut off her alarm clock only to hear her mother's perky yet nervous voice.

"Namine,

Are you up yet?" Her bouncy mother called out.

"Yes mom." She replied rubbing her eyes. As she quickly scrambled out of her bed and walked to the bathroom to take a shower. After she was finished she thought of what to wear.

"Hmm..." The girl wondered, "Should I wear my white dress or my blue dress or maybe, my grey Hollister shirt and denim skirt?" As she decided to wear her grey Hollister shirt and denim mini skirt. As she walked down the stairs to see her dad reading a newspaper, she saw a bowl of cereal waiting, as she ate her cereal thinking.

"I hope I don't lose myself, after all I am in a new place as long as I stay with my friends I should be okay." She snapped out of her thinking as she grabbed her backpack to see her mom waiting in the car. They drove the BMW out of the driveway to the school on the way Namine thought if she would meet anybody new. As they pulled up to the school. Namine went to get her schedule as she stared up at the bulletin saying that anyone who had "H" in his or her last name had to go to the classroom E-3.

As she proceeded to the classroom, she saw a girl wearing a black tank top over a white spaghetti-strap shirt with a purple skirt and a darker purple belt along with white and purple shoes, her hair looked extremely red since the sun glistened on her hair. She turned around, looked at Namine, and turned around. Namine did not think much of it. As they called her name. She grabbed her green schedule and walked to her first class with her best friend, Yuffie. The first class she had to go to was Biology with Mr. Brown in A-4.

As Yuffie and Namine walked near the classroom, once again they saw this mysterious girl with the red hair. As the teacher swung open the door.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, take your backpacks off, and line up straight, and please stand in the middle..."

Before he had, a chance to finish someone was goofing off in the back of the line.

"Sir?" Mr. Brown bellowed which scared the class. "Get out of the line and come up here now!"

When the class stared and looked at whom it was it was Seifer who frequently got in trouble last year. What would make this year any different? While Mr. Brown continued on with his words,

"As I was saying please stand in the middle so I can pair you up for lab partners."

The rest of the class walked in as they heard Seifer being yelled at by Mr. Brown. As the class watched and snickered when he walked, back into the classroom the class was extremely quiet.

"Okay lab partners for the first semester first will be... "Namine Hirouge and Kairi Hidaka."

Namine stood there silently a girl she barely knew was her lab partner. After the teacher finished the pairings, he explained the rules and why he did not allow backpacks for the sole purpose that if there were a glass beaker full of a chemical a backpack would knock it off and burn a hole in the cheap tile. Namine pulled out her books and glanced at Kairi's notebook that was pink and had flowers all over it.

" Hmm..." Namine thought, " Bright and...Colorful... I wonder what this girl is like, is she nice or mean, well I'll see during elective."

After the bell rang, they walked to Language Arts listening to 90 minutes of going over rules and regulations. While Namine and Yuffie were walking.

" Look!" Yuffie said quickly, she noticed that it was Kairi about to be beaten up by a senior. Yuffie tried to walk away but Namine stood up.

" Hey, leave her alone!" Namine yelled.

" What the hell, who is this, get her?" A girl looked over and said. In that instant second several girls ran towards Yuffie and Namine. Namine took out a can of pepper spray and sprayed them in their eyes. She ran out to Kairi who was now shaking.

" Are you okay?" Namine inquired.

" Yes... Thank you so much." She said shakily.

As they walked to PE, where Ms. Lee told them what the class was about. After PE was lunch, Namine stood in line for about 15 minutes to get her lunch and sat next to Yuffie as she saw Kairi at an empty table. Namine looked over at Yuffie and said

" Hey, let's ask her if she wants to join us." Namine said

" How about no, she doesn't seem...independent." Yuffie commented.

" Come on, I'm sure she is very nice just a bit shy." Namine replied. She walked over to Kairi.

" Hello, would you like to join us at our table?"

" Umm... I don't want to be a burden..."

" No you wouldn't come on." Namine said proudly.

" Okay then I will." The red haired girl replied. As they walked back to the table where Yuffie was eating quietly. As Namine and Kairi sat down talking.

" So... where did you go to school last year?"

" Oh, I went to Pacific Middle School that's all the way in Traverse Town."

" Okay so you're from out of town I take it you just moved here."

The girl nodded.

" Well I went to Twilight Middle School right here in Twilight town. Its so beautiful town."

" Good for you, lucky you have friends."

" Okay, what, you can't make friends? " Not to be rude or anything."

" Well I'm just a bit too shy."

The bell rang and all of them walked to their classes. Yuffie was walking ahead really quickly as if she was going to miss History Class Namine ran and tried to catch up with her when she finally did.

" Yuffie, what's wrong?"

" Oh nothing why don't you go to talk to that Kairi girl?"

" What are you mad or something?"

" No what do you think you ignored me during lunch."

" Well I'm sorry that I'm her only friend, come on she just moved here."

" Fine." As both of them walked to History Class where Mrs. Makoto who explained the basics after this lecture was over the bell rang, Namine was walking with Kairi explaining whom everybody was.

" Okay that's Selphie is so talkative, Seifer he's the gang member rumor that he was arrested for cocaine possession. " Roxas...oh where do I begin? " Well he's hot and cute and not taken, continuing on that's Yuffie, she's my best friend and she's a great fighter, That's Sora he's cool, and his best friend Riku he is cool too still both of them are not taken..."

The bell rang to go home Namine heard her cell phone ring it was her mom as she saw on the caller ID The text said to meet in the parking lot. Roxas came running up to her.

" Hey Namine..." He said playfully rubbing her head she playfully slapped his hand.

" Well anyway Namiee, would you like to go see a movie tonight?"

Namine stared at him " You mean on a date, I'm sorry I have tons of homework to do maybe Friday with all the gang?"

" Sure well catch ya later Namiee!"

Kairi stared at her oddly.

" Is he your boyfriend or something?"

" Of course not he's the annoying yet sweet guy friend nothing more nothing less." Namine said surprised, as she waved to Kairi as she saw her mom honking the horn to ask her to hurry up. As Namine pulled herself into the car. Her mother drove off.

" So Namiee... how was your first day, did you make any new friends?"
" Of course I did a very shy girl named Kairi, she's very sweet and kind to everyone."

" Good maybe you should invite her over or something to introduce her to Twilight town."

" Hmm... maybe I will she could come with us to the movies on Friday."

" Namiee... me and your father may have something planned that day."

" What?"

" Remember we have to visit Aunt Aerith remember she asked us to go to that charity event with her."

" But mom... I really want to go to the movies...with friends..."

" No... Namiee someone has to watch the house..."

" Hell no I made these plans long before the charity event I had on the calendar for months..."

" Child don't talk to me that way you're staying at the house and that's final." Her mother said in a snippy yet angry tone.

" Fine..." Namine said pout fully as they rode in silence back to the mansion. As her father was sitting in the parlor reading a book.

" Oh hi kiddo how was your day?"

" Okay..." Namine angrily walks up to her room.

" It's not fair, why do adults get to have all the fun... I'm going to the movies regardless..." Namine said.

As she sat at her white desk finishing her homework when she looked up at the clock it was 6:00, it was time for dinner as she sat there only eating a salad since she was a vegetarian after she finished her dinner the phone rang. Her mother answered it.

" Namiee... it's for you."

As she picked up the phone she wondered whom it was Yuffie,or Roxas actually it was Kairi.

" Hello Namine."

" Hi how did you get my number."

" Roxas gave me your number I asked him for it."

" Umm... why?"

" Because I wanted to talk to you, you know to get to know you better."

" Oh so what do you want to know?"

" Well when's your birthday, what's your favorite color, and where do you shop?"

" Well for starters my birthday is September 5th, my favorite color is white, and I shop at Hollister, Zuminez, and Nordstrom."

" Wow those are some good stores."

" So likewise can you answer those questions?"

" Sure my birthday is December 5th, my favorite color is pink, and I shop at Hollister, Macys, Nordstrom and the Juicy Couture store."

Namine could hear her mother telling her to get off the phone.

" Oh well I have to go I'll see you at school."

" Bye see ya."

Her mother called her downstairs to say something.

" Namiee... where would you like to have your party this year, oh where would you like it at? " The country club, or at Cipriani..."

" No mom, can't I be a normal teenage girl having sleepovers and other fun things instead of picking the most exclusive clubs to got to? " No I want a sleepover with friends and I'll make the invitations."

" Fine then..." If it goes bad don't blame me." Her mother said.

The next morning Namine decides to walk to school as she meets up with Kairi.

" Hey Kairi, want to go to the movies with me and my friends?"

" Sure..."

" Okay meet me at my house at 7:00pm on Friday Night." " My address is this."

She handed her a piece of paper when Kairi stared at it the address said 1312 Erie Drive. As they proceeded to school only to find a student, being arrested not just any student Seifer they heard him yelling.

" But I didn't have any coke, that's not mine my friend's he put it in my bag."

" Yeah right child, too many drug cases so little time." The cop said. As the girls watched in horror as the school was humiliated by " wankster" as Kairi and Namine walked to class traumatized by the events. All the teachers did that Thursday was lecture on the dangers of drugs. As Kairi and Namine were walking home, Kairi stopped.

" What's wrong?" Namine asked.

" Nothing, would you like to go to my house to finish homework?"

" Sure let me call my parents to let them know." As Namine made a quick phone call to her parents, which they said, yes. As the girls persisted to walk up the block.

" My house is just up ahead." She pointed at a light blue colored house. When they walked into the house. The house was relatively smaller than Namine's but it was cozy.

" My parents are at work they'll be home at about 6:00, so just make yourself at home."

As Namine sat her backpack down as Kairi proceeded to bake some sugar cookies. As she sat at the table and both of them pulled out their books and notebooks as they were working for 10 minutes as Kairi stood up to get to get the cookies.

" Want one?"

" Sure I love sugar cookies." Namine said sweetly.

" Okay here ya go" The red head said serving the cookie on a plate.

" Thanks alot." She said grabbing the plate.

Once they finished the cookies and homework Namine realized what time it was.

" Oh shoot I gotta go I'll see ya later Kairi."

" Bye Namine." As Namine waved and left out the door running home, she forgot her notebook in such a rush. As Kairi could not help but look in it. There were pages of notes not much. Namine ran back to the house where she saw her housekeeper Annie there.

" Oh hi Annie..."

" Your parents were worried..."

" I told them where I was going, I'll see you later Annie."

That night when everybody was asleep Namine wrote in her diary

" Diary, today I went over my friend Kairi's house it was so beautiful like...her...what am I saying? Well I cannot help it, we are supposed to go to the movies tomorrow and me and the gang will I will be so happy. Well I will write more later"

The next day Kairi gave Namine back her notebook as they sat through six boring classes after the day was up Namine rushed home to get ready wearing a white dress and blue shoes only to find her parents getting ready for the charity event. It was about 6:50 and her parents had left out of the door.

About ten minutes later Kairi arrived in a pink dress and purple shoes.

" Ready to go?" She said eagerly.

" Yup" She replied as they drove off the lot. As Namine turned on the radio to here, the song "Never had a dream come true" by S club 7. Namine turned it up.

" Oh I love S club 7 I still do."

" You like them too?" Kairi said, " I have all of their CD's and I loved their show."

" So did I!"

As they pulled up to the movie theater to see the gang waiting there.

" Okay, what movie should we see, " the break-up" or " X-men". The group said X-men but Namine and Kairi went to go see the break-up. As they sat in the back row.

" Would you like something perhaps popcorn, ice cream, or a hotdog?" Kairi questioned.

" Umm... some popcorn would be fine."

As she arrived two minutes before the movie started. As they sat there eating the popcorn. While they were watching the movie, Namine thought that she forgot something but she snapped back to reality realizing she did not forget anything. After the movie was over Kairi and Namine went back to Namine's car as she drove Kairi back to her house.

" I had a great time Namine, I'll see ya at school."

" I did too I'll see you at school too."

Namine watched to make sure Kairi made it inside the door of her home as Namine drove home beaming from the night. As she closed the car door and locked it. When she got to the mansion door, no one was there. As she reached into her purse and realized she had forgotten her house key.
