When the door opened, Namine's eyes widened.
Ocean blue eyes looked right at her. They showed curiosity when they found Namine. The slightly swirled spiked hair tilted a bit with the head. Just a few centimeters. And a kind growing male voice spoke. "Yes…can I help you?"
It was the guy from earlier. The one that helped her when she tripped.
Silence filled the atmosphere between Namine and the guy. Again, the words couldn't seem to process in her mind, like before. And so the guys spoke again. "Um…hello?" That time, Namine flinched and the words then appeared. Her tone was a bit shaky. "Y-yea…um." She looked at the papers in her left hand. "I'm supposed to be living in house 1389…but I think I made a mistake. I'm sure it's down the road, so I'll jus-"
"Oh you don't need to go anywhere." The guy spoke and smiled, stopping Namine. "This is house 1389; you're at the right spot." He then moved aside. "Come right in."
Namine felt her throat rapidly dry. Her feet were completely frozen in the spot they stood. For some reason the sight of the guy made Namine's body react like a switch, pointing at the 'off' side.
The guy blinked twice as Namine wasn't making any response. He then noticed her luggage and took it right out of her right hand, causing the girl a slightly flinch again. The guy smile once more. "Let me help you with this." He spoke. And then began walking farther into the house with it. And after several seconds passed with Namine standing in that same spot, her body finally realized what happened and quickly walked in.
She turned around after the first two steps and closed the front door. When she turned back around, she became surprised.
Namine stood in a large room that was clearly the living room. The walls were painted a very faded bright yellow that almost looked white. The floor was completely made out of wood with a tan color and it had a shine that screamed how clean it was. There was a large burgundy carpet that sat in the middle and on it was a low brown wooden table. Next to that, which was in front of Namine about a two yards away was a large burgundy sofa. And the sofa was facing the most modern thing in the room with its own two yard gap. An eighteen inch long, twenty-four inch wide flat screen that sat on top of another short wooden table.
The place looked actually cozy.
The guy then placed Namine's luggage next to the sofa and turned back to her. "So then, guess this means we're roommates." His voice got Namine attention once more, but this time she was a bit calmer.
The guy continued and raised his left hand towards Namine. "I'm Roxas, Roxas Towa." Namine looked at his hand for a bit and then realize what he was doing. "Oh, sorry, my name is Namine Hikari, nice to meet you." She placed her right hand into his and they shook for a second.
Roxas then thought about Namine's names. "Namine…that means ocean wave right? It's pretty." Namine's face turned red the moment Roxas said that. She struggled to speak. "Oh, um, th-thank you." Yet she then quickly shook her head and placed the thought aside as something else took its place. "Hey wait, I didn't know this university was co-"
"I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE!" A voice then appeared from an unknown location, cutting Namine off.
Namine and Roxas turned towards the other end of the room, where a staircase leading up laid. The voice seemed to have come from there. And within seconds, they were going to see who had said it. Yet Roxas gave a looked that seemed he's heard this voice before.
Footsteps rushed down and soon appeared another guy. He was much taller than Roxas and his hair was almost bright red, spiked and longer, causing it to go back. Unlike the normal, near tan skin tone Roxas had, this person's was a bit paler. His eyes were drawn to green.
The guy suddenly saw Roxas, wrapped his arms around Roxas and began to cuddle him. His tone was more to feminine manner. "ROXY! Take my advice and never date! Too much trouble, too much trouble!" The guy began to cry.
Roxas sighed as he struggled to get the guy's arms off of him. "Honoo, let go of me. And you always tell me that when you're having relationship issues. It's annoying after a while." The red headed guy continued to cry and made sure his grip was tight around Roxas. Yet that quickly changed when he spotted Namine.
He blinked twice at her and then let go of Roxas, dashing towards Namine until they were a centimeter apart. Namine felt uncomfortable as the guy look at her with awe. His tone was now sweeter, yet still feminine. "Your skin is so flawless! It's like silk."
Namine raised a brow. "Um…thank you."
Roxas shook his head. "Namine, this is Axel Honoo. He lives here too. Axel, this is Namine, she going to be our roommate." As soon as Roxas said this Axel smiled and wrapped his arm around Namine, just like he had done to Namine and squealed. "Oh well then, welcome Nami!"
Namine then began trying to wiggle her way out of Axel's hold. "What the fuck is with this guy?" She thought to herself. "I don't know it I should hug him or smack him…and did he just call me Nami?"
Just then, more footsteps appeared, and a third person appeared from came down from the staircase. A third guy.
His skin tone was closer to the one Roxas had, maybe a little darker. His dirty blond hair was jelled up, which gave the top a look as if it was buzzed shaved. And some parts stayed down. Like Axel, his eyes were green. Yet his seemed a little more dazed. He had his arms crossed in a manner that showed he was irritated. "Axel, have you stopped bitching yet?" His tone, unlike Axel, was more male.
Axel turned his attention towards the guy. "FUCK YOU MIZU!" He began crying again, this time in anger. The other guy rolled his eyes. "If you're using my last name, then I guess you are."
Namine looked left and right. "Um…Axel, right… can you let go of me?" She asked as Axel still had a hold on her. Yet it seems that Axel didn't hear her as he ranted at the new guy. "DON'T TALK TO ME!"
Roxas tilted his head. "Axel you don't have to scream…and let go of Namine already. She looks uncomfortable." Namine nodded, agree with Roxas's comment.
Axel then finally released Namine and dashed at the new guy. The two then began to go into a heated argument, with Axel using the word 'fuck' a lot.
As Namine watched this happen, Roxas walked over towards her. That guy there is Demyx. Don't worry about what's going on, this happens a lot between those two." Namine blinked twice at Roxas before speaking. "So is um…he living here too?" Roxas smiled and nodded. "Yea. With you, that makes four living here now." He then crossed his arms. "Weird though, there are no living arrangements that are coed in this university."
Namine looked at the floor. "There isn't…but then why did they put me with you guys." Axel jumped in, stopping the argument between him and Demyx. And giving Demyx the moment to then notice Namine for the first time. "Did they run out of rooms?" Axel said. And Namine nodded. "Actually, that's exactly what happened."
Roxas nodded. "Well that would make sense on why they would place a girl with three guys." Namine raised a brow. "Huh? I don't understand." Demyx rolled his eyes at her and said it straight to the point. "We're gay."
Namine then placed a finger on her chin and gave out a puzzling expression. "Hmm…you guys are…gay?" She didn't know exactly how to respond to that, but it would make sense on Axel's actions. She then looked at Roxas. "So then, if Axel and Demyx fight a lot…then they're a couple, right?" Roxas nodded, meaning she was correct.
She then felt a slight sadness. She didn't know why, but there was something causing it. Yet she pushed that aside. "Alright then." She side. "I'm alight with that. It's not like it's a big deal for me." Roxas shrugged. "Just giving you the heads-up I guess."
Suddenly Namine felt arms wrap around her once again and this time was lifted into the air as well. Axel again hugged her and began spinning her around in circle, causing her to quickly get dizzy. Yet this didn't matter to Axel. He squealed his girlish tone loudly. "Oh Namine! I could tell we're going to become BFFs! don't you!"
"ARE YOU FUCKING INSANE!" Namine shouted to herself subconsciously.
Axel then kept his hold on her and took her up the staircase, not on Namine's own free will.
Roxas went and grabbed Namine's luggage once more. "Looks like Axel's already taken a liking to her. Right, Demyx?" He waited for Demyx to make a response, but the instead Demyx just walked off, ignoring him.
Roxas just shook his head and made his way up the staircase as well.
On the second floor of the house, Axel carried Namine through a short hallway that had the same floor and wall as the first floor's living room. He took all the way towards the end, where he then released her. As soon as he did, Namine inhaled a large amount of air, showing that she had a hard time doing so when being held by Axel.
The two stood in front of a door, which Axel quickly open that lead to a dark room. He then looked at Namine for a quick moment. "Alright, come on in." He spoke, before entering into the darkness.
Namine did the same and entered the room. She now stood in complete darkness like Axel and could feel her eyes trying to see the surroundings clearly. Yet Axel then flipped the switch, filling the room with a sudden light.
It was a bedroom. And a pretty well sized room at that. There was a bed in the center back, already pillows and sheets. Two nightstands were in the room as well, one on each side of the bed. A large drawer sat on the right side of the room, with a well sized mirror above it. And the walls were completely white…actually everything but the wooden floor was white…kind of gave it the serial feeling.
Namine felt a chill of disturbance from how white the room was.
"This'll be your room okay?" Axel then spoke. "All the other rooms are taken already. Bathroom is right across from your room…what else…um…guess that's it for now." He ended with scratching the back of his head.
Namine blinked at Axel in a confused fashion. His personality was different compared to a few minutes ago. His tone was still feminine, but much more common. Unlike his over the top responses.
Axel at this time noticed Namine looking at him. "Hey, what're you looking at?" His voice made Namine flinch slightly, which was something that's been happening a bit since she entered this house. "Oh, nothing important."
Just then, Roxas then appeared into the room. His breathing was slightly heavy. "Damn Namine, what the hell is in this luggage." He spoke in a joke-like fashion. Namine quickly walked over towards him and took her bag. She placed it on her new bed and turned back to the guys.
Axel and Roxas smiled cheerfully at her…after those…things were just silent. Namine looked at Roxas…then Axel…then Roxas again. "Um…so…um…guess I just put my things away then."
Both guys nodded and left the room, leaving Namine alone in her new bedroom. She turned around and began to go through her bag, beginning to take everything out of it. Yet heard footsteps coming from behind to her location. "Huh? Did you guys forg-" She stopped midway.
Standing in front of her door, was Demyx. He stood tall and with his arms crossed. He looked at Namine with disgust.
