"Loser? Loser, get up!" a shrill voice rang through the house. Namine threw her covers over her face. She hated her sister. "Loser! Are you freaking stupid? Get up!" Kairi yelled throwing open her door. She pulled the covers down.
"God! What do you want?" Namine yelled sitting up.
"You need to get up!" she snapped back.
"And why are you waking me?" Namine asked.
"Because. I was told to come wake your sorry ass up." Kairi replied turning around. "Be downstairs in ten or we're leaving without you." She said slamming Namine's door shut. Namine sighed and got out of bed. She headed to her bathroom and started the shower. This is Namine Johnson. She's 15 years old and is living your average high school life. Except for one thing. Her sister, Kairi, is probably the most popular girl in school…and the most stuck up one. But anyways, she's all popular, while Namine's one of the outcasts. Her sister is best friends with the two most popular guys in school. Sora Ravine and Riku Davis. They're hot, muscular, and the biggest jerks ever. She's also best friends with this girl named Selphie Ryan, and let me tell you, she's not the sharpest tool in the shed. Selphie's boyfriend is Tidus Smith, who's Sora and Riku's best friend. So she's got all those people and Namine's got two people. Roxas Ravine, Sora's twin brother. Roxas is probably the best friend you could ever ask for. He loves all the bands she loves and they hate the same thing. His brother Sora, and all his little popular, preppy, jerks. And then there's Rikku Andrews. Namine and Rikku had been friends since kindergarten. Rikku was always there when Namine needed her. Namine finished her shower and walked to her closet. They were kinda on the rich side, so she had a walk in closet. She finally decided on wearing a gray Volcom shirt, light wash jeans, a My Chemical Romance Jacket, and her black Chuck Taylor's. She brushed her light blonde hair into a side part, brushed her teeth, put on some eyeliner and mascara, then headed downstairs. Just as she got down there she heard the car start outside. Namine looked out the window to see her dad and sister zooming out of the driveway. 'Great. Now I'm gonna have to walk to school.' She thought sighing. She quickly poured herself a glass of orange juice and decided that would have to do. She grabbed her black backpack and headed out the door. She locked it and headed towards the sidewalk. Namine looked up the sidewalk to see a head of blonde hair. She quickly ran and jumped on the person's back. The person caught her and looked over their shoulder.
"What's up, loser?" the blonde asked.
"Shut up, Roxas." she laughed hopping off his back. He chuckled. They always called each other loser and things like that. They walked for a few minutes in silence before someone broke it.
"So. You excited for the first day of sophomore year?" someone asked perkily behind them.
"Thrilled, Rikku." Namine replied sarcastically. Rikku was wearing a black Element tee with light wash jeans, red Chuck Taylor's and her hair was in a ponytail with her bangs falling over one eye.
"Aw, come one. You can't be that upset." Rikku said walking next to Namine.
"Oh, but I can."
"They leave you again this morning?" Roxas asked looking at Namine.
"Just as I got downstairs too. Seriously, I think they wait until I'm coming and then they leave." she said looking at my feet.
"They're not that cruel." He said.
"And that's where you're wrong." Namine said looking up at him.
"We're here." Rikku said looking up. Namine looked up to see Twilight Town High. There were a bunch of students running around having little reunions. Yup, it was your normal first day back. And of course, there they were. Walking in their little pod, not letting anyone in. And of course, Kairi and Sora were holding hands. They had just recently become an "item" over the summer. Everyone thought it was cute. Namine just found it nauseating.
"Come on." she said walking towards them.
"And why are we going to them?" Roxas asked.
"I have to yell at her." she replied. Roxas and Rikku just rolled their eyes and followed. Namine went and grabbed Kairi's shoulder. She turned around. The others stopped too and looked at the three of them.
"What?" Kairi hissed.
"You just had to leave me this morning?" Namine asked.
"Ten minutes means ten minutes." She replied. The others snickered.
"I was right there when you guys left, though."
"Well, you weren't right there in the car. So we left." She said turning around. They started walking again.
"Why are you such a bitch?" Roxas yelled after her. Namine heard a gasp and they all turned around again. Sora and Riku walked towards the three of them and Sora grabbed Roxas by the collar. Namine and Rikku backed away a little bit. It's not that they were scared, they just didn't want to get in the middle of it.
"What did you just say?" Riku snarled.
"Well, first of all I was talking to Kairi, and second of all, I asked her why she was such a bitch." Roxas said without a look of fear in his eyes.
"You leave her the hell alone." Sora said. Roxas just rolled his eyes. Sora pushed him back, and Roxas fell to the ground. Namine and Rikku quickly went to his side. "Go stand up for your girlfriend somewhere else." Their little group burst out laughing and they continued on their way. Namine extended her hand to Roxas and he took it. She pulled him up.
"Thanks." He said quietly glaring at Sora. He started to walk towards them again with his hands balled into fists. Namine quickly put her arm in front of him.
"Just let it go, Roxas." She said. He sighed and looked at her.
"I'm just so sick of them." He growled.
"I know, I am too. But thanks for standing up for me." She said.
"No problem. What are friends for, right?" he said. She smiled. He smiled back. Roxas however, wanted to be much more then friends. But what was he supposed to do? He couldn't just tell her. They had been friends since forever, and he could never ruin that friendship if it happened that she didn't like him back. "C'mon. Let's just go find our lockers." He said walking towards the school. Rikku followed behind, but Namine stood and looked at him. He was in jeans, a black The Used hoodie, and black DVS'. 'Wow. He looks really hot.' Namine thought. 'Wait, what? I did not just think that! He's my best friend. Bad Namine, ba-'
"Namine?" Roxas yelled. The two of them were already at the door. She looked up to them. "You coming?" he asked. Namine nodded and ran to catch up to them. They started walking towards the office to get their schedules and locker combinations. "You ok? You seemed pretty out of it." Roxas said.
"Huh? Umm, yeah. Sure." Namine said looking at her shoes. Roxas looked at her weird. This wasn't like Namine. Why was she not talking to them? Why was she shying away? Normally they'd be joking around about how stupid their siblings are. There was definitely something wrong. Namine was completely ignoring the rest of the world that by the time she realized what was happening, she had already walked right into a door. She fell onto her back and Roxas and Rikku rushed to her side. "Oh my God! Namine, are you ok?" he shouted. Namine looked up to see to cerulean and emerald green eyes staring back at her. They were only inches from her face. She propped herself up on her elbows.
"Wha-what happened?" she asked.
"We were walking and you weren't really paying attention, and I tried to tell you that there was a door, but I guess you didn't hear me." Roxas explained.
"Oh." Namine replied shortly.
"Are you sure you're ok? I mean, have you even heard a word we said today since we got into the building?" he asked.
"What? Of course! I mean, what would be wrong with me?" Namine said sheepishly. To tell you the truth, she didn't know what was wrong. She just was out of it.
"Are you gonna be able to make it through the day without walking into any more doors?" Rikku asked holding back laughter. Namine pulled her down. Namine quickly pulled herself up.
"Shut up, loser. And you could've warned me." She said laughing and helping Rikku up.
"Hey, we tried. You were just in your own little zone, I guess." Roxas said.
"Oh yeah, saying "Namine look out!" is really gonna help. You could've grabbed me or something." Namine pointed out. Roxas just rolled his eyes and chuckled. Just then the popular group came by.
"Aww, aren't the lovebirds so cute?" Kairi said in a baby voice.
"Adorable." Selphie replied. They all started cracking up.
"Shut up!" Namine yelled.
"And why should we?" Selphie asked.
"Ok, no one was ever talking to you." Namine snapped at her. Selphie just rolled her eyes. They started walking away. "Kairi!" Namine shouted after them. "We never bother you, yet you guys just always come up and start trouble? Are you like retarded or something?" Namine said causing giggles from passerby. Kairi just glared at Namine. Namine rolled her eyes and started walking down the hall with Rikku towards the office again.
"Come on, Roxas!" they yelled over their shoulders.
"Just leave us alone." Roxas said to Sora.
"Please. Like that's gonna happen. It's our job to make you feel like shit." Sora replied smirking. Roxas rolled his eyes and ran to catch up with the girls.
"Namine, wait up!" Roxas yelled after them. They stopped and waited for him. "Look, let's just go get our schedules and forget about our stupid siblings." Roxas said.
"If that's even possible." Namine replied walking again. They finally made it to the office. The secretary looked up.
"How may I help you kids?" she asked.
"Hi Mrs. Murray. We're here for our schedules." Namine said.
"Ok. Names?" Mrs. Murray asked.
"Namine Johnson, Rikku Andrews, and Roxas Ravine." Namine replied. The secretary started shuffling through a file cabinet.
"Ah, here we are. Have a good day." She said handing them their schedules and locker combinations and numbers. They left the office and stopped.
"So, what locker are you?" Roxas asked.
"210. Please tell me you guys are 211 or 213 or something relevantly close." Namine said.
"Umm, I'm 322." Roxas replied.
"What? 322? That's like forever away." Namine cried.
"I'm 111." Rikku said sighing.
"This is just great. And watch, I'll probably end up next to your brother or my sister or Selphie." Namine shuddered at the thought.
"I doubt you'll near any of them. You'll probably be near someone who you've never met before and you guys will become best friends." Roxas suggested.
"Yeah, I bet." Namine said stalking off to find her locker.
"Namine!" Roxas shouted behind her.
"We'll just meet up later." Rikku said sighing. She waved goodbye to Roxas and headed off to find her locker. Namine's first day back was not going as planned.
Well, there it is! The first chapter! Please review for me!! 33
