Hi everybody! This is my first Haynette, and I'm planning big things for this story! I'm really hoping that people will like this, because I worked really hard on it. Please review and tell me what you think! Hope you enjoy it ^_^

Hayner's POV

We were best friends. She was my girl best friend. We'd known each other since we were in pre-school. But just recently I've been seeing her in a whole new way, not just as a friend… maybe more? Wait, what am I saying? She's my best friend! What would she think if I just strutted up to her and said that I liked her? I guess it was recently before Roxas left that I realised.

Pence: There's this strange rumor going around. Wanna hear it? You know the stone steps at Sunset Station? We use 'em all the time, without even thinking about it. But---and this is the weird part---the steps count different going up and down!

Hayner: Seriously!?

Pence: And there are six other weird stories like that. It's like...the seven

wonders of Twilight Town.

Hayner: We should investigate those for our school project! Pence, you're a

genius!

Pence: There might be other rumors going around, too. Let's split up! I'm gonna look for the seven wonders...

Hayner: Olette and I will go find some new rumors! C'mon!

Pence: That leaves you and me, Roxas. Let's try the train first. To the station!

Sure, I'd bagsed Olette first. Because I wanted to spend some time with her on our own. Pence and Roxas were always around, so how is that any way to give her a hint hint?

Geez, walking around sure makes your mind wander. I'm actually on the way to Olette's house. No, I'm not going to confess anything to her. I actually need help with some homework. I hope it's not too late. It's dark already, I think it's about 10pm.

I walk up to her front door. The windows on the door are musty and blurry, like the mirrors in my bathroom, so you can't see through them. I knock on the door 3 times and stand around waiting. The door opens and there appears Olette's big brother.

"Oh, hey Hayner. Here to see Olette?" He said smugly.

Josh was 2 yeas older than Olette. They were very close to each other.

"Uh, yeah." I reply, looking up at him. Boy, he was tall.

"Olette! Hayner's here." He calls out. He then walks away, leaving me awkwardly standing at the open door with no one there. Suddenly I see Olette coming down her staircase, smiling.

"Hey, Hayner! What's up?" Olette asks in a cheerful manner.

"Hey Olette, um… I kinda need some help with my long division…" I say slowly.

"Oh, sure, come on in!" Olette opens the door wider and welcomes me in. I've been in Olette's house many times. I like it. It's a big two-story house and bewildering from the outside, but on the inside it's a cosy, warm place that makes you feel comfortable. I follow her up to her room where we always study, at her desk.

I can see Josh out of the corner of my eye, staring me down. I hate that a lot. He has something in for me.

We reach Olette's room and I dump my papers on her desk. There's a whole booklet we have to complete and I don't even get the first page. Well, I sort of do get the first page, but having Olette explain it to me makes it a lot clearer.

I look over to her division book, which is open on page 7, all filled in.

"Whoa! How did you do all that in one night?" I asked, astonished.

"Long division is pretty easy." Olette beamed. She pulled over another chair, which stayed in her room since I started coming over so often.

"So, what's the problem?" Olette asked. She looked at my sheet. All it had was my name on it. "Have you even looked at this?"

"Of course! I'm not a bonehead like Seifer! I just… don't know how to do it."

"Okay, here's how it goes…"

I must've been there a long time doing my long division. I'd made it up to page 4 before Olette started yawning and mumbling.

She yawned again. "And then you…" and again.

"Olette, are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm just a bit tired is all…" She yawned once again.

"How about I get us 2 a hot chocolate?" I offer. We always have a hot chocolate when we're done with our homework. It was kinda like a reward.

Olette yawned and nodded yes, so I headed down the stairs.

By the time I'd come up again with 2 steaming mugs of hot chocolate, Olette's head was on the desk and she was breathing heavily.

I put the cups down on the desk and shake her slightly. "Olette? Hey, Olette?" But she doesn't stir. She must've been asleep.

I take a sip of my hot chocolate. All well. More for me. But I might as well have hers, you know, I wouldn't want it to go to waste.

I put down my mug and think about what to do. I mean, it can't be that comfortable on the desk, can it? Maybe I could kinda pick her up and move her to her own bed? But what if she wakes up? That would be embarrassing…

I decide to do it anyway. I place my arms underneath her armpits and raise her up a bit before picking her up fully and holding her. She's heavy from being asleep, but she's quite light. I carry her over to her bed and place my right hand behind her head and my left arm under her thighs, carefully placing her on top of her bed. She doesn't move, which is a good sign that she isn't gonna wake up. I look down at her face, calm and peaceful.

How long had I been staring at her face? I snap out of it and go to Olette's desk. I decide to write a quick note before getting the 2 mugs. I put one between my arm and my upper body, using my free hand to turn out the light and quietly shut the door.

Olette's POV

Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep!

Woah! What's that? Oh… I hit the snooze button and bury my face into my pillow. Wait… how'd I get here? And why am I still in my clothes? I didn't… wait a minute! I was helping Hayner last night with his homework and I… didn't I fall asleep at the desk? Did… did Hayner put me in bed?

The thought of Hayner carrying me to bed made my tummy feel all funny. I got up and walked over to my desk. His homework was gone, but there was a sticky note on my maths book…

Sorry for boring you to sleep!

Thanks for the help.

Hayner

I smiled as I put the sticky note on the desk. So he must've carried me to my bed. Wow… maybe it was just a best friend kinda thing to do, but I can't help but get my hopes up. I mean, he was one of my guy best friends, sure, but lately I've been seeing him in a whole new way…

Besides the point, I have to get ready for school!

Normal POV

Hayner, Pence and Olette were in first period – maths class. The teacher was especially astounded at Hayner's quick work.

Hayner was sitting next to Olette continuing the long division.

"Hey, thanks for helping me." Hayner thanked.

"Oh, no problem! Friends help each other out, right?"

"Yeah…" friends… "Uh, Olette, can you help me with this?"

"Sure, let me see…"

Hey, thanks for reading my story! I know it's a kinda short start, but the start is always the hardest to write, I think. And sometimes the end too, if you haven't made a plan for your story and just made a total confusing middle with no way to end it!

I'm having loads of fun writing this story! Keep in mind it's my firs Haynette story, so I'll take all the constructive criticism I can to make this story great!

Oh, and you'll see why I called it "The dizzy game" later on! ^_^
