Ring! Ring! Ring!
"Ah man," Roxas groaned as he shut off his blaring alarm clock. 8:05 huh? Better get ready. Slowly but surely, Roxas gingerly walked into his bathroom and did his business. He didn't bother fixing his hair; he never really had to. His dirty blonde hair was already styled naturally to the right. He soon made his way over to his closet and picked out his staple outfit: A black shirt and white jeans. As he put on his checkered bracelet, he could hear his phone buzzing. Curious, he fished his phone out of his bed to see who was calling. Annoyed, he threw his phone into his backpack and quickly ran down the stairs.
"I really hope I still have some granola bars left," he said as he hastily searched his cupboard. Fortunately, he found two and graciously stuffed both his pocket. With one last look, he grabbed his keys and skateboard and was off.
"Hey man! I thought you weren't going to make it," Sora chuckled as he saw his best friend skate towards him.
"Nah, I wouldn't miss today for the world," Roxas sarcastically said as he got off his skateboard. Although Roxas didn't show it, he really did miss Sora over the summer. With Sora going off on vacation and what not, the teens weren't able to see each other as much as they wanted. In all honesty, Sora was Roxas' only true friend. But of course Roxas was never going to tell him that.
"Yeah, save the sarcasm for the girls. Let's head off to homeroom," Sora said. With Roxas right behind him, both guys trailed off into their school, South Destiny High School. It was a nice place for a school. White porcelain walls, marble floors, and state of the art laboratories. The principle, Mr. Ansem, was very rich. According to the rumors, Mr. Ansem apparently donates large sums of money to the school each year. The reason why is still a mystery.
"Now, if I can have your attention class, I would like to announce that we have two new transfer students from Twilight Town. Although they're a bit late, I would hope that you give them a very warm welcome!" Their homeroom teacher, Ms. Gainsborough looked at her students eyes, only to be shortly disappointed with how uninterested everyone looked. None the less, she kept on her plastered smile and attended to her various paperwork.
"Hey Roxas, do you think they're going to be... interesting?" Sora looked up at his friend with wide eyes. Unlike Roxas, Sora has never actually been with a girl. Sure, he's been on dates and such, but Sora has yet to have his first kiss. Roxas always found that dumb, considering the fact that they're almost 18 and done with high school. But, in Sora's defense, he thinks that his first kiss should be reserved for someone special. What a romantic right?
"If by interesting, you mean hot, then yes, I really hope so. God knows that this school is in desperate need of some fine ass," he said while playing with his phone. In response, Sora punched his arm, which only elicited a laugh from Roxas. As he continued to play on his phone, it once again started to buzz. Sora quickly glanced over just as Roxas turned off his phone.
"You know Roxas, you can't ignore him forever. After all, he is your-"
"Sora I know. I just don't... I'm just don't want to talk to him. Plus, I am not in the mood for one of your lectures," Roxas mumbled. Before Sora could say anything else, they both hear the door open.
"Ahh, there they are! Class, here are your new classmates. Kairi and Naminé Strife!" gushed Ms. Gainsborough.
"Roxas..." Sora whispered as he continued to look over the new students, especially the one with red hair. God did her legs look long in that pink dress. But the most redeeming feature was her smile. Sora could already feel the edges of his mouth turning up.
However, Roxas wasn't really interested in the red head. For some reason, he couldn't tear his eyes off the petite blonde. Her white sun dress hugged her body in all right places. Not only that, her eyes were such a deep blue... He couldn't help but stare right into them.
"Kairi, Naminé, why don't you go sit at the back. I believe there are seats next to... Sora and Roxas! Sora? Roxas? Raise your hands so the girls can find you!" Ms. Gainsborough flashed them a smile before returning to her desk.
The boys did as they were told as the girls carefully made their ways to the back. Much to Roxas' delight, Naminé chose to sit next to him.
"Hey, I'm Roxas. It's nice to meet you," he said with a smile. He made sure to keep eye contact with her. In his experience, girls loved it when you looked at them in the eye.
"Hi, I'm Naminé," she softly said. If Roxas wasn't so close, he wouldn't have been able to hear her.
"So, how are you liking the school so far?" He asked. Every second he spent next to her, he could feel himself wanting to know more and more about her.
"Well... it's pretty big. My sister and I even got lost, which explains why we're so late. Sorry for that," she said sadly.
"Ah, don't say sorry. Don't worry, I'll be your personal guide today!" Roxas chuckled. Everything the girl did he found... adorable.
"T-t-thank you," she stuttered. Wow, he's so cute... and nice.
Suddenly, the first bell rang, and everyone began to get out of their seats. Before he could wave goodbye to Sora, he could already see the brunette heading off with red head out the door. Oh Sora... I'll grill him later. As he and Namine entered the hallway, he saw her looking at her schedule with a wrinkle in her forehead. He peered over her shoulder and smiled as he saw the name of her next class.
"AP Chemistry? Guess we have first period together then. Let's go."
"Well, I hope I was a good tour guide for you," Roxas said as he bowed towards the blonde. She giggled in response, making Roxas' heart beat a bit faster.
"You were a wonderful guide. Thank you so much," she said sweetly. Roxas' knees grew weak in the presence of this girl. God, how does she already have this affect on me already?
"Well, I guess I'll be off. If you're ever confused about anything, you can always shoot a call," he said slyly.
"A call? But... I don't have your number," she said slowly.
"Oh Naminé, I didn't know you were so forward! Here, here, I'll give you my number," Roxas said dramatically. The girl found herself blushing as she handed the boy her phone. Surprisingly, Roxas failed to notice the sudden color change. After he was done, he handed the girl back her phone. With a simple wave, he hopped on his skateboard towards home.
As Roxas opened the front door, he felt his pocket buzz. Curious, he checked to see that he had received a message. With a swipe, the contents read:
Thanks for the help today :)
-Naminé
Without even realizing it, Roxas found himself smiling like an idiot. He quickly entered the house and flopped onto his couch.
"Man," He whispered as his heart beat engulfed the entire room.
Despite already showing her around the school, Roxas continued to walk Naminé to her classes. His reason was that they mostly had the same classes. The main reason? He still couldn't figure it out.
Naminé, who's usually shy, grew accustomed to Roxas' presence. For some reason, she felt much safer around him, save for the fact that his wardrobe mostly consisted of black, dark grey, grey, and the occasional white. However, she just couldn't shake off the feeling that people were staring at... well at her. And by people, she meant the girls. Some looks were of awe, some looks were of curiosity, and others of anger. We're just talking...
"You know Naminé, you still haven't called or texted me since the first day I meant you," Roxas mentioned as they were heading out of their last class. He couldn't figure out why he said it; it was just a question that was itching him for a while. After all, they've been hanging around each other every since the first day of school. What he really wanted was to hang out with the girl, an activity he hasn't done in quite a while. For some odd reason, he felt to shy to ask her in person. God, I feel like Sora.
"I-I just get too shy is all," Naminé replied. Truth be told, she did try to call/text him every night. However, she ultimately grew too embarrassed and busied herself with other things. Her sister, on the other hand, was calling Sora pretty much every night. Kairi's more forward than I am, Naminé thought sadly to herself.
"Well, don't be shy around me, I promise I don't bite," Roxas joked. However, as soon as he let the words out, he felt a blush creep onto his skin. Fuck, why am I blushing?
Naminé, however, had her attention on a girl that was just staring at her from afar. Her eyes held so much sadness. She turned her attention to Roxas, and decided to ask him a question of her own.
"Hey Roxas, do you have any reason as to why... these girls look at me weird?" Roxas was surprised with the question. He obviously knew why these girls looked at her this way, but he wasn't too sure if he should tell her... just yet. Yet? Did I really just think that?
"Don't worry about it much; it's probably because you get to hang out with someone so popular and handsome like me," Roxas gloated. Naminé giggled in return. Although he sounds like he's joking, maybe those girls are just upset because he's popular... After all, it is high school.
"Anyway, I'm gonna head home! Be safe Naminé! See ya tomorrow!" Roxas said before he dashed off on his skateboard.
Naminé stared at his back for a while before leaving as well.
Hey guys! Yup, I'm back. I'm not sure if you remember me, but I used to have a lot of stories up on here! But due to a fit of rage, I deleted them :p They were pretty popular if I do say so myself... Just kidding I'm just a loser who's about to go to college soon!
Anyway, it's been a while since I've posted anything... Much help would be appreciated to be honest. I'm a little rusty.
Review please!
I hope this is a good beginning.
Of course I do not own KH!
