Sora

I sure was going to miss the ice cream days, just sitting on the clock tower of Twilight Town. It is a nice view. That's what I'll probably miss the most. And my mom, of course.

I bit into the blue ice cream, feeling the coolness on my teeth.

"Sora!" I looked down and saw my mom waving at me. I smiled. "Dinner's ready!" I waved back and jumped back from the ledge. I rushed down the stairs and into my house. I was super excited to see Riku and Kari, but not Kairi. Kairi has this weird conclusion that I'm in love with her. She knows I'm bi, and we've been friends for years…but she jumped me a few years ago and I almost punched her off me. Riku just laughed.

I've known Kari for a few years as well. She's quite bubbly and outgoing, but her brother, Zexion, is quite an emo kid. They're twins. You couldn't tell unless you saw them or heard of them.

I open my door and look at the hallway. It has my suitcase and backpack. We sent most of my stuff yesterday, like my duvet and pillow and such. I laugh slightly before walking into the kitchen. "Pizza." My mom states, before setting it down on the plate in front of me. I grab a slice and sink my teeth into it.

"So, Sora…you excited to see Riku and Kairi again?" I choke on the last name.

"Whoa, no, no! Not Kairi. I don't want to see Kairi; I can't wait to see Kari!" I explained to her. She chuckled.

"Easy there, Tiger. But think about it this way, at least you won't have to room with her. I already called Ms. Kazano…Kairi is in class three and you're in class two. You're roomed with your classmates really." My mom shrugged. "Hey, how about after dinner you call Riku? Sound good?" I grin and nod, stuffing another slice in my mouth.

After Dinner

I dial Riku's number into the phone and listen to it ring.

"Hello?" Riku started.

"Hey Riku. Just wanted to chat really. Whats going on?"

"Nothing much, Sora. Did homework, asked Kari out, saw Hayner, Pence, and Olette…yeah…nothing much?" I gaped.

"You asked out Kari? Like on a date Kari? Duuude! I called dibs in like, first grade!" I pouted into the phone. I head Riku laugh.

"You snooze, you lose. Sorry mate. Dinner's ready. See you tomorrow on the station."

"See ya." I hung up and phone and laughed. Kari and Riku…never thought it'd happen.

"Sora! Head to bed. You have to be up early tomorrow!" I groan and go up to my room.

It's quite empty now. No posters, nothing. Just bare grey walls. I have to say, I'm going to miss this room.

Tomorrow Morning: Station

I said good-bye to mom and I'm sitting on the station platform, listening to I Kissed A Boy by Cobra Starship. It's my favourite song. I have to say I jumped when some red-head sat next to me.

"Hey." I said, making a small gesture with my hand. The red-head smiled.

"Hey, my name's Axel. Got it memorized?" Axel put a finger to his temple and we both started laughing. He leant back against the bench and pulled a lighter. I smirked.

"Whoa, dude, sorry! I didn't mean to offend you!" I held my hands up defensively and he just laughed even more.

"Sorry, kid. I'm not gonna set you on fire." He lit the lighter. "I'm just a pyro." Then suddenly I was tackled by a ball of platinum hair. Hm, Kari or Zexion….no contest.

"Well, I'm guessing Zexion wouldn't hug me, so Kari?" I smiled at her and she just smiled even more as the train pulled up.

"Come on, Sora. Riku's on the other platform, lets get on." I nodded and grabbed my backpack. I turned to face Axel.

"I'm Sora, by the way." I flashed a cheeky grin.

Five Minutes Later: Train

I was just sitting opposite Kari and next to Axel when the train had stopped again. I looked outside the window, and it was Riku's platform. Seconds later the door opened and a familiar silver haired teen came in and ruffled my hair. "Hey Sora." Riku greeted before giving Kari a big hug and sitting next to her.

"Hey Riku!" Me and Kari said in unison. Axel grinned at Riku and held out his hand to him.

"Names' Axel. Got it memorized?" Riku shook his hand and smiled back.

"Riku." He replied. "Consider it claimed to memory."

The rest of the journey was rather boring. I even noticed that Riku and Kari were holding hands behind their backs. I had to hold back a laugh. I'm sure Kari would tell me when she's ready. Even though I already know.

The door slid open and the person who I did not want to see walked in.

Kairi.

She ran up to me and pulled me into a hug. "Oh Sora! I missed you!" I mouthed a help me at Kari who just laughed, and she earned a death glare from Kairi.

"Um, hi." I replied, grabbing her arms and pushing her away from me. I frowned as Kairi kissed my cheek.

"Oh, Kari, why are you here?" Kairi asked her, and I saw Kari smirk.

"Free country. Besides, Sora is my best friend, and that's more then you will ever be to him." She shrugged. What a sly cow…I love her for that, because Kairi jumped up and ran out the carriage. I high fived them all.

I won't be able to write more then that. Boarding school tomorrow. Love you!
