Author's note: Another attempt to make a long story.

I'm also putting "Different Worlds" on hold. Actually, I lost all my files so yeah. I'll try updating that later:D

Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts or any character that appears here.

(Roxas's POV)

"Man, today's so boring." Axel said as he yawned and stretched. Me, Axel, and Xion were sitting on top of the clock tower. School was over now and we decided to eat ice cream again there.

"You tell me. That Math teacher's so boring I've got to pinch myself to be awake." I said as I threw the popsicle stick away. I stood up and picked up my skateboard. "I'm going home first, okay? I've got a ton of assignments waiting for me."

"Yeah, sure. Just get it done you geek." said Axel. We laughed at the comment and I got down from the clock tower. I waved at them from the foot of the clock tower and got on my skateboard.

Maybe you're wondering why Axel called me a geek. I just got one of the highest grades in our school. Not that that's something to be proud of. You never get any friends when you get high grades in our school. I'm lucky enough to have Axel and Xion. I just wanted to be a normal kid, with average grades, and surrounded by friends. Hell, I even wore contacts to get rid of my glasses.

I skated (A/N: I don't have a better word for it. If you have one, please don't hesitate to tell me.) down the streets of Twilight Town when someone called to me.

"Hey kid!" a man shouted as he beckoned me to come to him. He wore a black suit and sunglasses. He had blonde spiky hair. Definitely suspicious.

I shrugged and got off my skateboard. I walked towards the man ready to jump on my skateboard just in case the man tried something funny.

"What do you want from me?" I asked. He then put his hands on his pocket pulling out something. I turned away as he did this thinking it would be a knife or a gun.

"I'm not going to do anything to you, you know?" he said. I turned around and looked at what the thing was. It was a card. I took the card and looked at it. It was a business card for some modeling agency in Radiant Garden.

"Why are you giving me this? You want me to model for you?" I joked.

"As a matter of fact, yes." the man said.

My jaw dropped at that statement.

"What the HELL?" I shouted at him. "Can't you see I'm too much of an average guy to be a model?" I asked. Not that I'm treated as normal in school.

"As far as I can see, you don't seem to be average. I guess you're one of the jocks in your school?" he asked as he looked at me. It was as if he was analyzing every part of my body. It was a bit uncomfortable.

"Me? A jock? I'm one of the geeks in our school." I said to him.

"I'll tell you something. The people who call you a geek are just insecure. I KNOW you have what it takes to be a model. Trust me." The man said as he smirked at me. "Anyway, just call the number in that card if you get interested." He said as he walked away. "I'll be waiting for you."

I just watched him walk away. I shook my head and continued my way home. I didn't even bother getting on my skateboard. It gave me more time to think about the conversation he had with that man.

"The people who call you a geek are just insecure."

The statement kept replaying in my head. I shook my head again trying to forget what happened.

I reached my home and went immediately to my room. My mom knocked on the door of my room. "Roxas? Are you okay?" she asked. "Can I come in?"

I opened the door and went back to my bed. I sat on it and so did my mom. My mom was all alone when she raised since my dad died in an accident. So yeah, we were really close.

"Tell me what's wrong."she said" And don't give me that 'it's nothing' crap. I know something's wrong. Just tell me."

I sighed and told her about the conversation I had with the man.

"I see." she said as she put her hands over her mouth thinking. "Well I think it would be good for you." she said as she smiled at me.

"So you want me to go and try it?" I asked her. She never allowed me any extra-curricular activities inside the school, so why now. It's not even inside the school!

"Of course. I want you to try something new. I've been keeping you holed up here so you can study but I can see you're getting bored so why not do something else?" she said. "And it wouldn't be bad to see your son's photos in magazines." She added and laughed.

I just stared at her as she went out of my room.

"I swear, sometimes she's just so crazy" I said. I felt something well up inside me. It was like when I first got my skateboard. The excitement, the thrill and all those things you feel when you're going to do something new.

I pulled the card out and stared at it. I hope I can change their view of me. I don't want to be a geek forever.

"The people who call you a geek are just insecure."

I smiled as I remembered that sentence.

"It wouldn't hurt to try it out." I said as I reached for the phone.

--Next day--

"What am I going to wear?" I asked myself as I looked at my closet.

"Why not just wear your skating outfit?" I heard someone say behind me. I jumped and turned around to see my mom smiling at me.

"Don't scare me like that, mom!" I said as I nodded. My skating outfit (A/N: his clothes in Kingdom Hearts II) didn't sound that bad.

"Thanks, mom!" I said as I pushed her out of my room. "I'm just going to wear my jacket to make it look more presentable." I said to myself and changed.

I went to school and looked for Axel and Xion. I found them sitting under a tree inside the campus. I approached them and sat down together with them.

"Xion, can you give these to the teacher. I'm not going to school today." I said and handed her the assignments I did last night.

"Yeah, sure. But where are you going anyway?" she asked me looking at my clothes.

"I'm just going to have my regular check up with my doctor." I lied and left them there. "Thanks guys!"

"He's hiding something." Axel said to Xion.

--At the train station—

I bought the ticket to Radiant Garden and waited for the train to come to this station.

There weren't many people coming to Radiant Garden since they almost have everything in Twilight Town. The people going to Radiant Garden were people visiting their relatives while others just want to go there for a change of scenery.

The train finally arrived and I got inside. I was feeling really excited, but that quickly turned into boredom as the train ride lasted for 3 hours.

"We are now approaching Radiant Garden. All passengers getting off, please walk over to the door." A voice said.

"Finally" I muttered top myself as I went to the door. The train stopped and I let the people file out before stepping out myself. I took out the card again and got a taxi.

"Where to, kid?" the driver asked. I handed him the card.

"To the address in that card please."

"You're gonna do modeling?" he asked and eyed me. "Yeah, you've got the looks anyway."

I just smiled at him and looked out the window. I haven't been out of Twilight Town so I was really fascinated by the surroundings. The shops and the streets were full of people.

"We're here." The driver said and handed me back the card. I gave him the fare and looked at the building in front of me. "Oh my God…" I muttered to myself as I entered the building.

As I entered the building, I can't help thinking that this was going to be one hell of an experience.

A/N: well, there you have it! first chapter done. I hope I can have enough ideas for this story. I hope I don't get bored too. Hahaha! REVIEW PLEASE!
