High School Heart

Summary: High School life for Riku, Sora, Roxas, Axel, Cloud, and Leon. RikuxSora, AxelxRoxas, LeonxCloud. Warning yaoi, don't like it, don't read it.
Sora woke to the smell of pancakes. Too comfy and warm to get out of bed, he rolled over to find the peaceful figure of a sleeping Riku.
Riku had snuck into Sora's room last night around 11 o'clock. Riku only did this when his dad was drunk…which was very often. Sometimes Riku would sneak out again before Sora's mom found out but most of the time he would stay to have some of her cooking seeing as how Riku's own mother had died when he was 4. He was always welcome at the Hikari household.
Syra, Sora's mom, was a kind woman who thought of Riku as her own son. Sora's father had left one night and never came back. Cloud was Sora's oldest brother. Roxas was Sora's twin but you definitely couldn't tell just by looking at them. Sora had chocolate colored hair that spiked out at random angles. Roxas had blondish hair that also spiked but more to one side. The only details that were similar in all three brothers were their sky blue eyes and their spiky hair. Cloud and Roxas were also different from Sora in that they were more loners, they preferred spending time with only a few set amount of friends and not making new ones everyday. Sora, however, loved people and would constantly meet people and make new friends.
Riku groaned in his sleep and unconsciously, moved towards that closest source of heat, which was Sora. Riku's arm wrapped around Sora's waist and pressed their bodies closer. Sora blushed furiously and scrambled away from Riku as quickly as he could. Unfortunately, Sora didn't notice that he was perched dangerously on the edge of the bed, resultinig in him falling heels over head (literally) on to the cold floor, 3 ½ feet below.
"Ow," was the o-so-intelligent response.
Sora heard rustling on top of the bed as Riku woke up from the loud crash. Before Riku could say anything sarcastic about Sora's clumsiness, Cloud burst into the room.
"Sora…tell me you weren't trying to walk up the walls….again," Cloud said in a confident, I'm-better-than-you voice.
Cloud paused 2 feet in the room, looking around for his younger brother and only seeing Riku.
"Hey, Riku…where's Sora?"
"present," replied a small voice from somewhere behind the bed. "Thanks your concern, CLOUD," Sora said as he got up and dusted off his pajamas. "that was one time, ok? And I was five…what do you expect after you forced me to watch 3 movies back-to-back starring Jackie Chan," Sora huffed.
Cloud simply chuckled at the memory and walked back out of the room. Riku also chuckled, "did you really try and walk up the wall?"
"Rikuuuuuuuuuuuuuu," whined Sora.
"hehe…alright. Let's get some pancakes."
Riku and Sora walked downstairs and into the kitchen to find Roxas cooking the pancakes at the stove with Syra reading the newspaper and sipping morning coffee.
"Good morning, Mrs. Hikari," said Riku politely.
"Hi, mom" Sora said, less formally.
"What a lovely surprise, Riku. And how many times do I have to tell you to call me Syra. You make me feel like an old woman."
"CoughyouareoneCough" Sora subtly commenting while grabbing a steaming hot pancake from a plate with his bare hands and started eating it.
"you little," Syra murmured quietly and grabbed Roxas' spatula. "In this house, we eat like civilized humans," she said jokingly while pronouncing each word with a hit on Sora's head.
"I surrender. I surrender," Sora said retreating to a cabnet to get plates, knives, forks, and cups for Riku and himself.
"Remember, it's Monday so get ready to leave for school in 10 minutes," called Syra as Riku and Sora ran upstairs.
Cloud, Sora, Roxas, and Riku all went to high school at Traverse High, an all boys school from hell. Roxas, Sora, and Riku were all freshmen while Cloud was in his junior year. At school, Cloud was a complete social retard. He barely talked to anyone other than his best friend, Leon. He was moody and had an aura of mystery around him. Almost all the girls from the neighboring schools wanted to date him but it was a widely known fact that Cloud had never dated other than one girl named Aerith Windslay. They dated for 2 weeks but broke up because they just didn't feel it. Cloud's best friend, Leon, was also one of the popular men with the girls because…let's just face it…..he's cute as hell. Of course, his real name wasn't Leon, it's Squall Leonhart. But no one, except Cloud, calls him that cause Leon will kill them. Cloud and Leon were an inseparable pair, wherever one was, the other was close by.
Sora and Riku hurried upstairs to get ready. Since the school required all students to wear khaki pants and a white shirt, Sora always had extra pairs of clothes for Riku. Riku and Sora had to change in his room because Roxas always spent an hour in the bathroom doing god knows what (Roxas: SHUT UP). This was normal seeing as how everyday they changed in the bathrooms for gym class. Sora couldn't help it when he sneaked a peak at Riku's lean, muscular body. Sora wished he had a six-pack like Riku.
Riku noticed that Sora was staring and was about to ask what was wrong but he was interrupted by a car honking twice.
"Ah…we better go," Sora said as he hurriedly finished dressing and grabbed his bookbag.
Sora and Riku ran downstairs and caught a glimpse of Roxas and Cloud walking out the door.
"Bye, mom," Sora said as he grabbed his brown paper bag lunch, kissed his mom on the cheek and ran out the door with Riku right beside him.
Leon carpooled with the Hikari brothers ever since he got his license, half a year ago, and he was used to bringing Riku to and from school. Cloud climbed into the passenger seat of the Honda accord while the rest of the boys filed into the back. The car ride was fairly quiet with the random bits of conversation about the weekend.
At school, the boys split up. Once at the freshmen locker bay, Sora was glomped by his hyper-active friend, Kiyo. Kiyo was about the only boy in the whole school that was more happy and hyper than Sora. Everyone thinks he drinks soda and candy before coming to school.
"Heysorahowareyoudoingtoday?i'mgreatdidyouhearthenewsabouttheplays?" Kiyo said in one breath. He continued rambling 90 miles about god knows what.
"Breathe, Tivo," Riku said as he helped Sora to his feet.
"Sigh…fine. Well, Sora, as I was saying. Did you hear about the school plays?" Kiyo paused to watch Sora tilt his head to one side in a confused way. "well, it's a homeroom gig. Each homeroom clase has to put on an original play, it can be based off another, and we all compete to see who the winner is."
"…uh…that's great and all, Kiyo but why is that so fantastic…..and who is gonna be playing the girl parts if we are all boys"
Kiyo didn't answer. He only laughed madly and ran off screaming about evil plans. Both Sora and Riku sweatdropped at the sight.
Roxas stood quietly beside Riku as this scene unfolded and was amazingly glad that he wasn't in the same homeroom as Riku and Sora (note: Kiyo is in Riku and Sora's homeroom…..if ya didn't get that). Sadly, Roxas' homeroom was Sex ed, with the most perverted teachers ever, Xemnas. All he talked about were his sexplorations with his boyfriends…..ew. Xemnas would probably make the class do some kinky play. Oh well. Roxas wasn't into the whole acting thing so he'd let other people act and he'll just do the lights or something.
The warning bell rang and Roxas entered the Sex ed class room. He stood around talking with some people he knew until the final bell rang. Roxas headed towards the back of the room when he heard his name called by some kid named Rian or something. He turned to see what it was but was tackled by a red blob screaming that he wasn't late.
The pair landed on the floor with a loud thud, Roxas on the bottom and the red blob on top of him.
"oh shit….sorry bout that,man" said the red blob...which turned out to be a guy with bright red hair that streaked behind his head in spikes. The red haired boy was currently straddling Roxas' hips with Roxas staring up at him.
Of course right at that moment, Xemnas walked in the classroom and saw position the boys were in.
"Oh…sniff it's so beautiful….sniff I'm so glad you learned something from me….makes me wanna cry" Xemnas started fake crying which brought every student's attention to the 2 students on the floor.
Roxas turned beet red in an instant and pushed the red blob off him and scrambled to his feet.
The red head stood up with his hand reached out towards Roxas, "uh…yea…sorry…the names Axel. Got it memorized? (A/N: squeal sorry…you know I had to put it in there)" Axel smirked before continuing, "I just transferred. And you are?"
"Uh….Roxas." Roxas said while shaking Axel's hand….wow…it was really warm. Roxas shook his head getting rid of that thought.
"well my little hormonal teenagers, please take your seats and we will begin," Xemnas said.
Roxas sat in his usual seat in the back and was surprised to see that another person sat down next to him, Axel.
"Alright….as most of you know, the school is having us put on a play. So any ideas?"
The class was quiet for a few seconds before hands flew up and ideas were being screamed at the top of their lungs.
"okay….that didn't work...new plan: you 2 boys will figure out the idea and set up cast and everything…okay….i'm gone" Xemnas ran out of the room before the 2 boys, Leno and Taike, could respond. They took everyone's ideas and wrote them down before voting on them with the class. Throughout all of this, Axel had fallen asleep with his head resting on his arms on the desk. Roxas snuck looks at him whenever no one was looking. Even Roxas had to admit that there was something weird about the redhaired kid. But it was a good weird (A/N: is there such a thing as a good weird), it was the kind of weird that kept people coming back just to find out what would happen. And after all, Axel wasn't all that bad looking…..he had those teardrop tattoos…And that thin face…..and those lips….Roxas shook his head once again and focused all his attention on the 2 boys at the front to keep from thinking about Axel.
"And the winner of the play idea contest is………….a twisted, comedic version of sleeping beauty. And since we have all boys that means one of you is gonna have to play sleeping beauty. Sorry but we don't have a choice."
No one in the class wanted to play Sleeping beauty was a pretty good idea if it was funny. The boys in the class decided that this was the best idea able to be come up with so they cheered with a little enthusiasm. All except for the two in the back.
Roxas leaned his chair back against the wall and closed his eyes. He felt bad for whoever had to play the prince…or even wore….the princess. As long as it wasn't him, he didn't care.
"and now the cast members…" the two boys talked quietly before addressing the class, "we decided that our sleeping beauty will be…….Axel our new student"
Once Axel heard his name he stood up, yawned, and layed back down saying something about the damn monkeys stealing his lunch money.
"and the prince will be played by………..Roxas"
"WHAT!!!!!!!!!!" Roxas lost his balance, and fell backwards out of his chair which issued another outburst of laughter. "No Way In HELL!" Roxas said now standing on his feet and pointing at the two boys walking towards him. "i-…..but-….it-…why me?" he cried desperately.
"well….because some of the guys were talking about the scene you had before class and it was just too perfect." Leno explained.
"But-"
"And if you don't cooperate….we'll just have to get Tifa to convince you" cut in Taike leaving Roxas terrified.
Tifa Lions was a truly scary teacher. She was the drama teacher and loved to torture kids. She had the strength of 3 fully grown men when she was angry and so no one ever messed with her or people she liked.
Just then, the bell rang. Axel woke up and grabbed his backpack not even knowing what had happened.
"You idiot!" screamed a frustrated Roxas.
"Look….i said I was sorry for falling on you" responded Axel defensively putting his hands up.
"not that. While you were sleeping, you were elected Sleeping Beauty….and I'm the stupid prince for that homeroom play" Roxas hastily explained.
"……oh"
"…..What do you mean 'oh'?" Roxas exploded.
"….oh? I don't know….what do you want me to say?"
"something like 'hell noo I'm never doing that'"
"well….i don't know," Axel shrugged, "it sounds kinda fun"
"arghhhhhh!" with that Roxas stormed out of the room to his next period.
Yay….chapter one…..completed…..finally. man this one took me like ten days to come up with the plot and actually type it…..but I got it in before my deadline….sorry bout changing it before…..stupid strep throat
Anywho….what do you think…..i'm officially calling this my first fan fic because my other one just plain SUX so I'm redoing it…..after I finish this.
Hope you liked it…..onto chapter 2!!
