Arrangements: Prologue
Sometimes a moment's perfect until someone messes it all up. This was one of those times.
I was lounging on a lawn chair out by our backyard pool, cigarette in my mouth, enjoying the last week of summer vacation and the hours that Axel worked so we couldn't go hang out anywhere.
So I was relaxing on the chair with a book. It wasn't real good, but it wasn't horrible either, the only thing was, I wasn't reading it. I was thinking about the afore stated redhead. He always swung by and picked me up after work and we'd either go to his house, The Usual Spot, or the skate park. Yesterday we went to his house and stayed in his basement room playing video games and making out. And I almost couldn't tell if I fell asleep and was dreaming about it or it was a day dream, but that didn't matter. I was with Axel, in my mind at least, and we were making out. All was well. ...up to the part when I remembered my mom was going to introduce me to the girl I was going to marry "Whether I liked it or not".
I cringed at that thought knowing my mom was going to chose some random airheaded blonde chick. Why? Because that's what all the guys dig, apparently. Though, to be honest, I don't want to raise kids with blonde hair and bright blue eyes and are stupid to the max. In fact, raising kids, in my book, was completely out of the equation unless they were adopted and with Axel. And even then it was a big, fat maybe.
I run a hand over my face and sigh knowing she was going to come out any minute with the bimbo of her choosing because she wants us to have bonding time before Axel swings by. And she knows I won't reject Axel, though she doesn't know about the make-out sessions....or the fact that it's being going on since middle school.
Honestly, I didn't like blonds. Though that's kinda hard to believe considering I'm blonde. I like redheads. Like Axel. And they can't be female either. That's a turn off. But it's not like my mom believes that. I tried telling her once...it didn't work.
I heard the back door open and I was suddenly really interested in the book on my lap. A lot more than the two people who stepped outside. I started reading it only looking up when my mother cleared her throat in front of me and only looking at her then cause I knew she could keep me from going out with Axel today.
The girl was, in fact, blonde. She was, well I guess she was pretty. Didn't look like a total bimbo and was wearing a plain white sun dress. She smiled sweetly at me, hugging her sketch pad to her chest. Maybe I could get along with her, so long as she didn't expect love.
"Roxas, honey, this is Naminé," My mother says.
