The trio cursed under their breath then ran to the office to get their new schedule.

"Hello, how may I help you today?" The front office woman asked them

"Our schedules please!" they shouted in unison.

"Here you go, run along now, before you get marked tardy!"

They thanked the woman then ran out as fast as they could.

"Okay let's see what we have first!" Sora said and Roxas and Namine just nodded slowly.

"I have English first with Mrs. Wakson, how about you guys?"

"Uh, I have also!" Sora chimed.

"ME TOO!" Namine shouted with glee. And so they headed for C-7, their classroom.

As they walked in the classroom, all the students in the classroom stared at them as if they were the aliens from outer space. Sora gave them the "What the fuck are you staring" at glare, and walked up to .

" you are late, you can't come to my class late! I hate students who walk in late all the time…" Mrs. Wakson kept talking to herself hysterically, making all the students snickering to themselves. However, before the trio could take their seats, the classroom door opened once again. And the red head walked in. She casually handed her schedule then waited patiently, without making any eye contact.

"hmm, Miss Kairi, I presume you are the new student?" Mrs. Wakson enthusiastically looked over Kairi's schedule then, returned it to her.

" Kairi, would you please briskly introduce yourself to the class?" Mrs. Wakson waited for Kairi's response. Kairi nodded gracefully than faced the students.

" Hello, my name is Kairi, please take care of me" she never dared to look up , her eye level was to the ground. Which Roxas noticed almost immediately that, she was a shy person.

"Why thank you, Ms. Kairi you may take the seat right behind, " directed her outstretched hand down to the boy in platinum white styled hair teen. Riku casually waved his right hand for Kairi to easily search for her seat. Kairi quickly made her way towards Riku. The rest of the gang behind Kairi sat themselves in the empty desks available to them.

And so first period began, but nobody seems to care much, while instructed for her students to pair up with a person next to each other and talk about what they did over the summer.

With the cue, everybody in the class started to talk to each other's partners. Sora was showing off his barely existing arm muscles to Namine, explaining to her that over the summer he's been working out, it made Namine giggle like the giddy fan girl, then she commented Sora, how manly he looked. Roxas couldn't stand the lovey dovey scene, he had to divert his eyes to somewhere else, before it blinded him. While this was going on, Riku, who was Kairi's partner didn't know where to start, because Kairi wasn't giving Riku eye contact what so ever, making Riku feel uneasy.

" Hey, listen, um.. am I making you feel uncomfortable? Because then I can ask for a seat change. I don't mind" Riku gently told the poor auburn haired girl sitting next to him.

Kairi furiously shook her head side to side signaling Riku that it was unnecessary action, and that she didn't mean to put Riku in a uncomfortable situation.

"NO! It's not you, it's just… It's just … I am really bad with opposite sex" Kairi quietly explained it to Riku.

"Opposite sex? " Riku quizzically asked Kairi, who now was waving both hands in front of her body, making an "X" in the air.

" It's not what you think it is… what I meant to say was , I am really shy with guys , especially talking with them, I am sorry if I have offended you in anyway. I didn't give you eye contact because I am shy, not because I think you are a bother" Kairi quickly told Riku, hoping he would understand her problem.

RIku slowly nodded and small smile was creeping on to his fair skinned face, then he cleared his voice.

"ahem, alright then, let's start all over, I will try to make you feel comfortable around guys a bit more, trust me, I am a pro when it comes to aiding a charming ladies!" this made Kairi blush and a small giggle escaped her soft pink lips. Kairi's giggle traveled throughout the spacious classroom and reached Roxas' ears, he slowly turned towards Kairi and RIku's direction. For the first time in his life, Roxas felt something fluttering inside his stomach, and it made him feel a bit flushed and it made his heart beat quicker.

" What is this feeling that I am feeling? Did I catch H1N1 flu? Or did I eat the expired date poptart? Or what?" Roxas kept asking himself what might be wrong with him, however, what our blond teen didn't know was that, the feeling that he was feeling wasn't just some kind of illness. It was a special feeling called, "Love".

A/N: D'awww, our Roxy-Poo is finally going to be experiencing LOVE! Hope he figures it out soon enough to gain Kairi's love. Please R &R, I will love you forever, please and thank you.
