Disclamier: I do not own Kingdom Hearts


Chapter 1

I sat in class as our teacher dragged on and on about the homework we were supposed to complete tonight. My mind was focused on other things at the moment. Even watching paint dry would be more interesting than this. I held up my head with my hands as I slowly drifted off to sleep…

"Roxas!" My science teacher shouted as I jerked awake and the class laughed, "What was I just talking about?"

"Science?" I guessed and the class burst into another round of laughter.

"Yes," he said, "What about science?"

"Ugh," I hesitated.

"The Periodic Table of Elements," Axel, my best buddy, whispered just loud enough that I could hear.

"The Periodic Table of Elements," I repeated.

"Thank you, Axel," the teacher said. I tried to stay awake for the rest of class, but my teacher wasn't helping very much. I glanced back at the clock.

"Five more minutes," I whispered.

Five minutes later, the bell rung and I got up and walked out of class.

"Didn't get enough sleep last night?" Axel asked as he punched me in the arm.

"No," I said, "That teacher is just so boring!" I never liked high school. In fact, I hated it. I couldn't wait for summer.

"Hey, Roxas!" A familiar voice called. I looked to see my friend, Sora. I had met Axel a long time ago and he was my best friend, but Sora was definitely second on my friends list.

"Hey, Sora. What's up?" I asked.

Sora grinned. "I'm hanging out with Kairi and Riku after school. Want to come?" He asked.

"Sure," Sora's smile widened, "That's awesome." Kairi and Riku had been Sora's childhood friends from Sora's hometown, Destiny Islands. They had always been real close and moved here. I had met them last summer during a Struggle Tournament. Sora and I were the finalist. It was close, but I ended up in first.

"Wow," Axel said sarcastically, "Thanks for not inviting me."

"Oh," Sora said still smiling, but sheepishly this time, "Sorry. Do you want to come?"

"Aw, Sora. You so considerate for asking," he teased, "Sorry, but I can't make it. I have some plans for tonight."

"Then why did you ask me to ask you!" Sora shouted.

"It's the thought that counts," Axel said, laughing as he walked away. Sora rolled his eyes and turned his attention back to me.

"Meet us at the Twilight Town Ice Cream Shop," He said.

"Great," I replied, "By the way, Sora, I know you have a thing for Kairi."

"What!" He yelled.

"I'm not stupid, Sora," I said, "You should ask her out. I'm pretty sure she has a thing for you, too."

"You really think so?" He asked as we headed to our lockers.

"Yeah," I said, stopping at my locker, "I do."

Sora continued down the hallway, smiling, as I opened my locker and took out the things for my next class. Jeez! Didn't that kid's mouth ever get tired from all that smiling?

The school day lasted for an eternity and a half. I finally was able to go home. With my back pack, I walked down the street.

"Hey," Sora yelled, "Wait up!"

I walked slower and Sora eventually caught up to me.

"What happened to the 'wait'in 'wait up'?" Sora asked catching his breath.

"It got up one day and walked away," I said simply.

"Very funny, Roxas." Sora said sarcastically.

I ignored his sarcasm. "Yes, it was. So," I started, "Have you asked out Kairi yet?"

"No," he said.

"Why not?" I asked.

He paused. "I'm not sure if she'll say yes, Roxas. Why don't you ask someone out?"

"Because I don't like anyone," I said, telling the truth.

"I'm definitely no buying that," Sora said, "What about Xion?"

Xion was my ex-girlfriend.

"No..." i said.

"Well," Sora said, hesitating, "They're plenty of other girls in this school. Are you sure you don't like any of them?"

"Positive," I said.

"Really?" He asked.

"Yep," I said.

We walked in silence for a minute towards my house. Do I like anyone? I asked myself. I thought of every girl I could remember meeting and liked none of them. I wonder- My thoughts were cut off by an annoying person walking next to me.

"What about Olette?" He asked. She was one of the people from another group of my friends, Hayner, Pence and Olette. She was also a friend and nothing more.

"Arghhh!" I yelled in annoyance.

"Ha," Sora said, grinning, "I caught you! That means-"

"NO!" I shouted, cutting him off, "I don't like her! She's just a friend."

"What about," he thought for a moment.

"I seriously don't like anyone," I said.

"Fine," he said, "I'm not giving up though."

"Ugh," I groaned as we reached my house, "I would have told you if I liked anyone!"

"I sure hope you would," Sora said, quietly.

I dropped my backpack off in my room and grabbed some munny for ice cream. I went back downstairs and found Sora waiting there for me.

"We better hurry," he said, "They're probably waiting for us."

"Whoever gets there last has to buy the winner his Ice Cream!" I yelled pushing Sora to the side.

"Hey!" He yelled.

I ran down the street and laughed. He chased after me. I turned the corner and he stayed hot on my trail. I got there first and found Kairi and Riku waiting. I heard Sora's footsteps behind me and soon enough, he had made.

"You lost," I said, "You are buying my Ice Cream."

"That's not fair!" he yelled, but the smile stayed on his face, "You got a head start!"

"That's just too bad." I said, laughing.

"I'm not buying your Ice Cream," he said seriously.

"I was just joking!" I said, "Don't worry about it."

"I knew that," Sora said quietly.

"Don't you guys ever stop arguing?" Kairi asked as she laughed.

"Nope," I replied.

"Excuse me," the lady at the counter said, "Are you going to order or not? You guys are holding up my line."

We all looked back at the invisible line and turned back to order. Sora and Kairi their favorite flavor, Papoa Fruit, and I got my favorite, Sea Salt (Axel got me into it.) Riku got other type. He never stuck with the same flavor twice.

We sat down at a table and started to eat. I took a bite. The salty flavor filled my mouth along with a satisfying sweet taste. It never disappointed me.

"I absolutely love their Ice Cream!" Kairi said, "It is just so good!"

"I know!" Sora said looking at Kairi.

I was instantly reminded of something. "Oh," I said, "that reminds me. Kairi, Sora wanted to ask you if you wanted go-"

Sora eyes filled with fright as he kicked my chair and I fell to the ground.

"What Roxas means is," Sora said "that I was wondering if you wanted to go…" He tried to figure out what to say as Kairi giggled.

"Wanted to go…" he repeated, "Wanted to-" He immediately stopped what he was saying and stared at something. I followed his eyes and found the back side of a platinum blonde girl.

"Wanted to go..." Kairi repeated, oblivious to the girl behind her.

"Naminé?" Sora asked. The girl jerked around looking for the person who called her name. Her eyes rested on Sora with a surprised face.

"Sora?" she softly asked.

Sora smiled. (When doesn't he?) "Yep, it's me," he said as he gave her a friendly hug.

"You guys know each other?" I asked.

"Yeah," Sora said, "I'll introduce you. This is Naminé, guys and Naminé; this is Kairi, Roxas and Riku." He pointed to each one of us.

"Hi, Naminé," we said in unison and Kairi continued, "How'd you guys meet?"

"Remember when my mom sent me away to that camp at the end of last summer?" We all nodded and he continued, "It was called in some weird white called Castle Oblivion and Naminé went there, too." He said.

"Oh," I said, "Axel mentioned that place, I think," I said.

"Axel?" Naminé asked.

"Yeah, Axel. He's my best friend," I said, "Did he go there, too?"

"Yes," she said, "He was so nice."

"How come you're here?" Sora asked.

"My parents decided to move," Naminé said, "I'm going to some school called Twilight Town High. Do you know where it is?"

"Yeah," Riku said, "We go there."

"Really?" She asked, "That's good."

"How about you come hang out with us," I suggested.

She looked at me. My heart skipped a beat. Her big, beautiful eyes poured into mine.

"Really?" she asked.

"Y-yeah," I said coming back into reality, "Of course. We're friends right?"

She smiled at me and my insides fluttered. "Friends," she said.
