Kingdom High

Chapter 1

I woke up to find a VERY energetic blonde bouncing on my bed. "Huhh… unnhhh… Amy?" I was exhausted! What time was it! It was still dark out! "What… What time is it?" I muttered through my yawning. "Look silly!" She giggled at my confused thoughts. Grimacing, I looked at my clock. The glowing green numbers said it was 5:30 in the morning! I bolted up. "AMY! WHAT THE HELL! It's soooo early…" She stared at me like I was an idiot. "Roxy, do you realize what today is? Gah! Your mom figured you'd be like this so she told me to come over and make sure you woke up on time." "Ummm… Why would I need to wake up this early? Ever? Unless…" Suddenly realization dawned on me. "OH SHIT! FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL! And I never asked Demyx how to do my hair…" Amy started laughing at me and my stupidity. "Don't worry, I called Demyx. He's gonna get over here and fix up your hair, and teach you to fix it this weekend. He said he's bringing hair gel!" I jumped out of bed, just in boxers. If this was any girl but Amy, I'd probably be a little worried. But, since it was just Amy… It was all good. I decided to grab the jeans I bought when we went on a shopping trip last week. They were a dark blue, and they went wonderfully with the polo she had bought me for my birthday last month. I hadn't worn it yet! Amy thought it brought out my eyes, and Demyx said it made me look "Yummylicious". "Hurry up, babe. You know, my boy can't spend all day fixing your hair. He has school." I turned to see Xigbar, just like I thought. He was leaning in my doorway, almost filling it all up! Poor Demyx was trying to squeeze past him! "Hun, it'll take all day just to get past you!" "Not without a kiss first!" I laughed at the two. They were so sweet to each other, the perfect boyfriends. Demyx gave him a little kiss, then sprang into my room, pushing me into a chair so he could do my hair. I loved him and Amy, they were my two best friends. "Roxy! I'ma gonna steal your bathroom! I have my clothes in this bag, I'll get ready here!" Amy ran out, and into my bathroom. When she left, however, she left me alone with the two biggest flamers in our little town of Kingdom. Not that I minded, and they loved being called that. "Hey, Roxas." Xigbar sounded serious. I looked at him questioningly. If I dare spoke, Demyx would murder me. Xigbar was looking in my mirror, fixing his eyeliner while he spoke. "There should be two new kids at Kingdom High today. Moved in next to me. They're brother and sister. The sister is in your grade. Talk to her, and be nice, but avoid the brother. Be careful around him. He seems like bad news. He wears lots of leather and black, and seems like bad news." Demyx laughed. "Babe, don't you wear leather too?" He gestured towards Xigbar's leather jacket. Xigbar shook his head. "This is different. You've seen him. There's something different, and off about him. Anyways, the girl is named Mandi. Be friends, makeout, whatever." Then, he stole my comb and started brushing his waist-long black hair, always pulled back in a ponytail. "Guys! I'm ready! How do I look! And Demyx, how much longer are you going to TAKE!" Demyx laughed. "One, that's what she said. Two, I don't go that way, sweetheart. Three, you look amazing, you always do, and by the time you twirl around, he'll be all done." Amy was wearing a short, sewn-by-hand, gothic Lolita inspired dress, with green cyber locks and fuzzy legs, her little fashion invention. Demyx spritzed me with hair spray, twisted one last spike into place, and let me go. I tried to squeeze past Xigbar, who was STILL brushing his hair. "Buddy, lose the muscle! I can't see past you! And it's MY MIRROR!" Finally, after me trying to push him, Demyx managed to pull him away with the promise of a kiss. I checked my hair… Demyx did a good job. He always did, and I wouldn't be able to ever completely replicate it. I sighed. Amy came over, looked me up and down and gave me her seal of approval. "Crap! I got gel… On my shirt!" Demyx tried to wipe it all off of his tight white t-shirt, with rainbows and a slogan reading "Now Recruiting". He loved that shirt! "Hey, anyone else notice that if we don't leave soon, we'll miss our breakfast date?" Xigbar motioned to the clock. It was already 6! "Last one in is a rotten egg! And I call shotgun!" Demyx shot down the steps, with us all following to Xigbar's car, to get to the coffee shop down the street from our school.
