Chapter One: The First Day of the Rest of My Life
(Roxas POV)

I nervously glanced up at the old brick building that stood in front of me. Students were milling around out on the front lawn and many cast suspicious glances at me as they walked past. I hated always being the new kid. Actually in truth this was the first time I was 'the new kid' and as I had seen other new kids do I stood alone and refused to meet anyone's glances, just in case they thought I were threatening them or something stupid like that. I turned to my brother to see him still hunched over in his car.

"Demyx," I whined. "Can you please hurry up?"

He waved a hand at me and continued searching for whatever it was he was searching for. It was fine for him; it wasn't like he was the new guy… standing on his own while people looked at him strangely … while his self-obsessed brother took his sweet ass time in the backseat of his car - and there wasn't even a girl in it - will wonders never cease. It was hard enough having to trust Demyx to not abandon me on my first day here and so far he wasn't giving me much hope. I barely knew the guy anyway so I guess even if he weren't here I'd be basically in the same position, maybe just a little worse off.

I'd only moved here two weeks ago, I had been previously living with my dad on the East coast. He and mom got divorced when I was like three or something and he got custody of me while mom got custody of Demyx and my other brother Cloud. Recently dad fell in love with some bitch who's basically the same age as me – ok, she's actually eleven years older but that's not the point – and she had a huge plan to start a new life with my dad, apparently I wasn't included in it. So dad sent me off to the West coast to live with my mom. Luckily they did it all through break or else I could have been starting school halfway through junior.

"Ok, we all ready?"

I looked up at Demyx– which sucks because he's a year younger than I am –and then down into his hands.

"Your cell phone?" I asked.

That was what he was looking for. That's what was so important. So important mind you that he had to leave his brother alone in a mass of strange people.

"Yeah, do you expect me to go through the day without it on me? I mean, look, I've already got two missed calls. Two! They probably think I'm in mortal danger or something."

"Why would they think you'd be in mortal danger?" I asked, slightly slow on the uptake.

"Umm hello, I didn't answer my phone when it was ringing! I always answer my phone."

"You're like a freaking girl," I told him. "And do you actually take calls during class?"

Demyx looked at me with a look that said 'are you crazy, of course I do'. "Yeah …"

"Oh, it's just that at my old school we weren't allowed to do that … in fact if we had pagers or cell's at school they'd get taken off us."

"What a screwy school," Toby laughed.

"Are public schools a lot different to private ones?" I asked genuinely curious.

My question went unanswered however when Demyx's phone rung and he held up a finger to silence me so he could take the call. But sigh; yes I was a private school brat. Dad thought it would be best for me to go to a private school, in the end I guess it only worked out for him seeing as Melanie was my old school's principles secretary. Oh, if I didn't mention 'its' name before, Melanie is my dad's new fiancée. So not only was I transferred from one side of the United States to another, I was living with three people I barely knew or remembered and I was coming from a private school environment to a public school one. Life sucked.

Until I saw him.

He was tall and lean, but in a good way. He wore the coolest black pants I'd ever seen that rested on his hips oh so nicely. They had a couple of chains sewn from one side to another and black straps coming off at all angles. He had two shirts on, the top one had short sleeves and was black. A 'converse' star was emblazoned on the front in red. His shirt underneath was grey and went to his hands and even then it was slightly rolled up and looked too big for him. What was best about him however – could he get any better with fashion sense like that? – was his face. He had blood-red hair that was spiked back into large… spikes… and an upside down triangle thing on both cheeks.

My jaw dropped as I watched him walk past me and I followed him with my eyes. Luckily Demyx didn't notice my love struck expression because he was too wrapped up in his own conversation. The Goth kept walking with his head slightly bowed and crossed across the lawn and disappeared down a pathway between the school buildings. I've never seen a Goth so closely before. Sure I'd see them when I was hanging out with my friends, well actually, no I didn't. The places I went with my old friends weren't really Goth welcoming type ones. But I had seen them before. I didn't realize how hot they can be.

"All right, I'll take you to the office so you can get your timetable," Demyx told me snapping close his phone.

He shoved it in his pocket and we made out way towards the main building. As soon as we had left the car park we were literally bombarded with people. All seem to be screaming his name, God what was my brother, a rock star or something? The onslaught didn't stop even inside the hallway. I could understand how Demyx was likable, not only was he really authentic but he was funny, witty, smart, a bit of a daredevil, shy at times and an all round great person to be with. He wasn't bad in the looks department either, like both Cloud and I he had blonde hair, a sleepy look (in a good way, not sleazy like), thick eyelashes and bluish eyes. I could admit my brother was good looking. And apparently so could everyone else.

"Hi Demyx," a girl said who looked like a freshman.

"Katie how are you?" Demyx asked genuinely.

Katie didn't reply, instead she went bright red and turned away. I looked over my shoulder to see her giggling like a schoolgirl. Not only did I notice how almost all the people seem to pine for Demyx to acknowledge them but the girls seem to be giving me rather dirty looks. Come on! I'm a guy and I look like him for heavens sake! Are they stupid enough to think of me as a girl and that he's my boyfriend? Eww.

"Demyx," the speaker was a very tall and very beautiful blonde. "Other person," she said glancing at me and curling her lips slightly.
Hey, at least she accredited me.

"Hey Laxrene," came his reply. "This is my older brother Roxas, he transferred in from New York."
"So you're the brother! Wow! It's so nice to meet you!" Laxrene said warmly and extended her hand. Talk about a mood swing.

I accepted it and smiled back. "You too."

"Larxene is Sepiroth's girlfriend," Demyx told me in a voice that sounded like 'oh my god! Sepiroth is so cool!'

"Who?" I asked.

"Umm, Sepiroth. Our cousin! Shit, Roxas, he's in your grade!" Demyx replied sounding shocked.
"Sepiroth goes here?" I asked in disbelief. "He didn't tell me that when he was over the other day."
"He always came here, he probably didn't tell you because it's not really important information," Demyx told me waving a hand.
"Oh, well I guess you're right," I said glancing down at my feet.

Demyx opened his mouth to say something but instead answered his phone that just started ringing. "Uh huh… can you hold a sec," he placed the phone on his chest. "Rene, can you take Roxas up to the office? I have to take this call."

"Sure thing," Laxrene told him.

"Meet me by my car this afternoon after school," Demyx told me. "Thanks Rene," he added before rushing off into the crowds of people, his cell phone attached firmly to his ear.

I looked up at Laxrene to see her smile widely and to make me feel very small. "So… Demyx seems to be… popular," I commented in a lame attempt to make conversation.

"Hmm, you're very lucky you know," Laxrene told me before heading towards the office where I was supposed to go to.
"I am?" I asked.

"Defiantly, I mean look at Demyx. He is honestly the coolest guy in school," she informed me.

"I noticed he had a lot of… friends." I told her dryly.

"Well duh, haven't you seen how much his phone rings? He may be a junior but I swear every guy wants to be him and every girl wants to be with him, hell even some of the guys want to be with him." Guess that's why the girls were giving me those looks, they thought he had a gay lover or something. "Just like Cloud when he went through. All the girls and some dudes had crushes on him." She finished.

"Did you?" I asked without thinking. She shot me a look and I continued. "I mean, like, he graduated two years back so you would have been in tenth… right?"

"Well, we did go out for a month."
"What, a month?! Why did you two break up?"

"A liked Demyx and went out with him," came the simple reply.
"What!" I almost screamed in disbelief. "So you've been out with both of my brothers and my cousin! Crap, who will you hit on next in my family? Me!"

I automatically bit my lip. I had to stop doing that, shutting down people I barely knew. It was ok with my old friends because they knew me and I knew they liked me, so it made it ok. We always did it in a nice way anyway so it's not like we were serious, but Laxrene didn't know that.

Luckily she laughed. "Oh Roxas you are so cute!" she told me, er squealed at me. "Anyway as I was saying Sepiroth is the coolest guy in our grade and you and I are going to be best friends so you're all set."

"All set?"
"Duh! You've got everything made for you, friends, social events, a great rep, great contacts, and I know about your preference, so guys to date and lay you-."

"Lay me!" I cried out in disbelief before lightly slapping her on the arm.

If I had been looking at where we were going and not so involved with the conversation I would have realized that not only were we at the office but also there was another person standing about an inch in front of me who I was about to run into. And that's what happened. I ran into him. Oh wait… no it wasn't. It was another Goth. Except this one had a long mane of silver hair with a black streak running down his fringe and was wearing a tight black wife-beater. He also had an assortment of very interesting jewelry running up his forearms.

"I'm game," he told me smirking.

"Oh piss off Riku." Laxrene snarled. She grabbed my arm and pulled me out of his way.

He snarled back at Laxrene before turning his head to me. His gaze softened and a small smirk crawled onto his lips. "Catch you around."

As he brushed past me I felt his hand gently squeeze my backside. I spun in indignation prepared to give him a piece of my mind but he had merged with the other kids dominating the hallways.

"Asshole," I spat.

"Excuse me?" Laxrene asked.
"That dick just felt me up!" I told her.

"What? Not Riku?" Laxrene asked her eyes ablaze.
"Yeah, that punk kid."

"Don't fret, Roxas. I'll deal with it."

"What do you mean, 'I'll deal with it'?" I asked.

"I mean I'll let it slip to the football team and they'll go talk to him."
"Oh… they won't hurt him will they?" I asked in a small voice.
Well sorry for being naïve. From what I'd gather so far public schools were highly different to private ones. In private schools all this sort of stuff wasn't notice because, a – we were uniforms so peoples personalities didn't shine through and b – most news was kept, well, private. Besides, I hadn't been in the cool group at my old school so I was usually shunted aside by most people. Excluding my friends of course. I guess the idea of having an wide range of friends at this school made me eager to convince Laxrene or whoever was considered cool around here that I was able to fit right in.
Laxrene choose to ignore my question. "Well here we are, just go on in and the secretary will tell you what to do."
"Alright," I said nodding. "Laxrene," I called after her as she started walking away. "Thanks heaps for showing me where to go."
"Oh Roxas it's fine. At break I want you to come to the cafeteria and find us in the corner beside the window ok? We'll show you around the school some more."
"Oh that'd be swicked," I said smiling.

She smiled back and waved. As she strode down the hallway I noticed how, like Demyx, people seemed to flock to her side and I couldn't help but hope that, that would be happening to me within the next few weeks. Taking a deep breath I entered the office and approached the secretary.

Without looking up she said, "Sit in that chair. Mrs. Mathews will be out shortly."

I followed orders and sat in the chair closest to the door.

"-and if that happens again you'll be suspended Mr. Kaji." I heard a shrill voice saying. "You couldn't wait till mid term either could you? First day? Tsk tsk."

"Yep," a low voice replied and I couldn't help but agree with my mind that it was a very sexy voice.

"What was in it this time?"
"It was straight."

"Well, at least you're getting smarter… slightly. All right, you can go Mr. Kaji. Do me a favor though, if there's a guy outside could you please send him in?"

I glanced up in shock when I heard the door open. I didn't tear my glance away though because it was him. Yes, him. No mistakes this time. We caught eyes and I noticed his were a unique shade of green… of maybe a very, very icy colored green. I smiled faintly at him. In return he jerked his head towards the door. "Oh does she want me to go in?" I asked hoping to hear his voice again. I mean he sounded so hot before!

He nodded the disappeared out the doorway. As he left the room so did any hope of getting together with him.
