A/N: Hey guys! :) Tis me again with, you bet, another challenge of mine! (I swear I'm crazy for doing multiple of these... I can't even manage to update even the rest, much less this one Dx) But! Because I have a passionate thing for writing and creativity, I will keep on doing this, and because I enjoy doing it as well :) Anyways, so this is in response to my own challenge! I had a certain trio in mind, and definitely wanted to write up something good. So, the trio I chose (to stop the suspense) is Roxas, Xion and Axel, in an AU kind of setting. For those of you wanting to take on my challenge, you can always refer back to this story if you'd like to give you an idea or, if anyone wants to try out my challenge. Either is fine with me :) Just have to make a shoutout to Hawkrider for doing my challenge and finishing it. Congrats, it was really good! Well, I'mma stop blabbing and go on with my new story!

Disclaimer: I do not own anything! This goes for all the chapters after this one.

*Hello*

"Yo! Welcome to Twilight Café! What can I get ya?" in the small café shop in Twilight Town, an eccentric spiky red-head was happily serving the many customers that were coming in today. Twilight Café is a very popular place of small snacks and beverages; practically everyone in town went there to get their coffee or snack needs. The shop opened at sunset, just in time for those just getting out of school or getting off work. Everyone was always so eager to get in.

"Axel," the manager walked up to the red-head, who now turned to him.

"Hey Sai'x! Sure are a lot of customers today." he grinned.

"As I can see... Anyway, I've hired someone new today." Sai'x spoke in a monotonous sort of tone.

"A new worker, huh?" Axel blinked, looking around. "So, where is he?" but as soon as Axel asked that, a young boy, who was no more than sixteen or so, came up.

"I'm he- Ahhh!" but as soon as his foot came in contact with the floor, it slipped and he wrecklessly fell on the floor in front of Axel and Sai'x. The red-head was currently trying to refrain himself from bursting out in laughter. The clumsy blonde looked up at the older boys, an embarrassed look on his face.

"Um... hello." he couldn't believe he made a fool of himself on his first day on the job.

"I'm leaving him to you, Axel." Sai'x was making his way back to his office in the back, leaving Axel in disbelief.

"What?! I'm here to work, not babysit!" he argued, but the blue-haired manager paid no heed to his complaint.

"I'm your boss. Do as I say." and he slammed the door of his office. Axel sighed and looked down at the helpless teen still splayed on the floor.

"Alright newbie, get up." he offered his hand to help, which he took and Axel hoisted him up off the floor.

"Ah, thank you! And nice to meet you!" the blonde bowed and greeted firmly. This amused the red-head, in which he let out a small chuckle.

"Don't sweat it. And a simple hello is fine." he ruffled his hair a little. "So, what do people call you blondie?"

"I'm Roxas." the young worker straightened up, looking at the red-head.

"Axel. Get it memorized, especially if we're gonna be working together." the new worker nodded in understanding.

"Umm... hello." a customer had come up, turning the boys' attention to her now.

"Ah, here's your first customer Roxas. Ask her what she'd like and don't forget-"

"What would you like?" the blonde asked with a smile, but Axel whacked him in the head. "Ow!"

"Dumbass. Always say hello to the customer first. And a 'Welcome to Twilight Café' would help too." the older one of the two advised, shaking his head. Roxas rubbed the back of his head, turning back to the customer, who was slightly confused.

"Uh, sorry. Hello, and welcome to Twilight Café. What can I get you today?" he asked, heeding to Axel's advice. The young black haired girl giggled.

"It's fine. One regular coffee, please." and she handed him the right amount of munny, Roxas thanking her.

"Your order will be right with ya in a few minutes. Roxas, follow me." but when Roxas made a turn, he slipped and fell again. "You're hopeless kid..." Axel sighed, helping him back up. The blackette who was waiting on her coffee, couldn't help but let out a small laugh, finding the two very amusing.

And it all started with a hello...
