THE STORY OF ROXAS AND NAMINE
SUMMARY: Though the title may seem normal, the story is anything but. This tale surpasses all canonical boundaries, so you'd better hold on tight to your sanity, cause you're in for a wild ride. Pairings galore!
REAL SUMMARY: Roxas was a brash teenager of fifteen years old; Namine was a shy blonde of fourteen. This is the story of how these two crossed paths, and changed each other's lives. For the worse or for the better.
Chapter One: Starstruck
One wonderfully sunny day in Twilight High, Naminé was sitting in the courtyard with he friends—Yuna, Rikku and Paine—feeling a bit awkward (she had been here for only two days after all) when she saw something that changed her life. Or, more specifically, someone.
Walking flawlessly with his group of jock friends, wearing a dark leather jacket and skinny jeans, was Roxas. The jock of all jocks. In her opinion, he was the cutest guy around. And he was walking her way.
She immediately straightened up, fingering her uniform skirt nervously.
He blew his blow-dried blonde spikes out of his eyes, and with his velvety voice uttered: "Uhhh…you dropped these in Math." In his hand he held her glasses (so that's where they went…she thought.).
"Th-Thank you," she mumbled.
As she took them from him, their hands touched, and she felt a sort of titillating feeling as their fingers brushed. It filled her insides, making her want to jump and dance and scream and—
"No problem," Roxas replied, smiling at her. Well, it was just a tiny, casual smile, but to Naminé it meant so much more. She twirled some of her blonde hair around her fingers, giggling, love struck.
And it went on, for the whole day. She couldn't forget how his eyes blazed, how his smile made her tingle, how his hair swayed in the wind. Then at home time, Roxas was walking past her when she tripped on thin air. She yelped as she tumbled into his waiting arms. She took a whiff of his citrusy, lemon-lime scent, her face reddening.
His head dipped towards her, and she was immediately in a trance. Then his expression changed into that of disgust. "Umm…Naminé…"
He knows my name! she thought, her cheeks colouring even more. Is he going to say what I think he is? Please… "I like you too…" she mumbled, though unaware.
Roxas stared at her in shock, and if her face could have coloured any more she would be a tomato. "Umm…actually I was about to say you stepped in dog shit but…"
Naminé freaked, looking at the ground. Crap. He was right. She was well and truly in a whole dump of doggy doo.
She had embarrassed herself. In front of an angel.
He scratched the back of his head nervously. "Umm…well…I don't know you that much, so I can't say if I like you back…" Roxas' cheeks tinted pink. "…b-but we can just be—"
"ROKU!"
Someone pounced onto Roxas, glomping him mercilessly. Roxas hacked, pushing him off him as he took in oxygen. The intruder turned his cerulean blue on Naminé, and she looked away nervously. "Who's she?" He asked.
"That's—"
Naminé chose this time to escape from the scenario, hurrying away. I can't believe I just embarrassed myself like that…how will he ever like someone like me? I smell of dog crap, I can barely form a sentence…
Little did she know, for Roxas' eyes were glued to her.
-TSRN-TSRN-TSRN-
The next day, Roxas and Naminé were staring at each other like crazy, turning away whenever they locked gazes. One of Roxas' friends, Riku, noticed him staring and rolled his eyes, sighing. "Ask her out already."
Roxas flushed slightly, looking away.
"It's obvious you like her, Rox," he sighed, leaning on his elbows.
"Fine but…it'll upset Sora." Roxas looked over at said brunet friend. Everyone in the school was aware that Sora had a crush on him—it was the most recent gossip. He had sang 'Dance Floor Anthem' at last year's SingAThon!™, dedicating it to Roxas, after all.
"I'll keep it a secret," Riku shrugged, inspecting a lock of his hair. A few fangirls 'KYAAA!'d at this, marvelling at his divine locks. Riku was the acclaimed most attractive guy in the school, and yet he rejected everyone's advances. Ever since he had a bad break up in middle school, he was totally off girls. Everyone said it was because he was saving for someone…
"Really? You'd do that for me?" Roxas exclaimed.
"Sure, why not?" Riku smirked. "It sure beats watching you two go gaga for each other."
"Haha," Roxas retorted, but the smile he returned was truly genuine. He patted Riku gratefully before rushing off to meet the new girl.
"LOL." Riku muttered, whacking away at stray fangirls.
"KYAAAA! HE TOUCHED ME!" A fangirl exclaimed in joy, her eyes tearing up.
"FML…"
Anyway, over at Roxas' side, Naminé nearly died when she saw him approaching her, adjusting her glasses and fixing her hair rapidly.
"Hey," Roxas grinned, showing his bleach-white teeth.
"Hey…" Naminé blushed, blinking rapidly through her glasses.
"Um…" Roxas looked around, nervous, then brushed hair away from his eyes, trying to stay cool. "Do you…like, wanna go out or something?"
Yuna, Rikku and Paine bounced up to them, like three Energizer bunnies on a mission. "WHO WANTS A HOTDOG?"
Naminé sweat-dropped at the randomness of it all, silently cursing her friends, and Roxas stared at them. "Uh…sure…but we were kinda in the middle of—"
"ROKU!"
Roxas cursed as Sora bounded up to him, a cheesy grin all over his face. "I was wondering if, you know, we could…" He whispered the last part seductively. "…go out tonight?"
Yuna, Rikku and Paine made gagging noises, but Naminé just stared at Roxas, oblivious to, well, everything.
Roxas looked at Sora and sighed. "Umm…sorry but…I'm busy tonight."
Sora looked like he was about to cry, but didn't, thankfully. "Okay. Why?"
"I, uhh…have this…dance class…" Roxas mumbled vaguely.
Sora's face lit up. "Can't I come watch?"
"Uhh…" Roxas looked pleadingly at an approaching Riku with a look that said 'HELP ME NOW'.
"Uh, Sora," Riku cleared his throat. "Why don't we go bowling together instead?"
Sora stared at him with a weird look, but shrugged eventually. "Okay."
"Let's go to class," a fire-engine-red-haired guy yawned, fiddling with his lighter and looking at Naminé with disapproving looks. Roxas grinned at Naminé before heading to class.
"You SO owe me," Riku mumbled, glaring. "Now I'm gonna have to spend this evening with your boyfriend."
Roxas rolled his eyes, chuckling. "Thanks a lot, buddy."
