Her dazzling violet-blue eyes opened to a pink polka-dotted ceiling, and for the faintest second a wave of terror chilled Kairi to the bone and she forgot where she was. But she soon remembered. Aqua. Ventus. That boy. (AN: She only saw Sora, remember?) So she hopped out of bed and pulled on a pink t-shirt with hot pink khakis, today was too important to look lazy. She put on some lip gloss, mascara, and was in the middle of putting on some eye shadow when there was a knock on the door.
It was obviously Naminé who knocked on the door, the two had developed a knocking code without really meaning to. Naminé would knock four times, short and quick, while Kairi would knock three times, longer and harder. "Come in!" Kairi called, and her sister flowed in the door.
Naminé was wearing a silky white lacey dress, blue sandals, and her rosy cheeks and pale lips were quivering slightly as she stared at Kairi's room in amazement. "Whoa! Come see mine! Come see mine!"
Kairi finished her make-up and bounced to her doorway, and was led down a hallway until she entered a door. Suddenly completely breathless, the redhead stared in astonishment. "Wow.." She murmured.
Everything was white and blue. Just white and blue. it was mostly white, but a glowing electric blue traced the walls, the bed, and the dresser. On her bed was a white cat with the word NAMINÉ in blue on it's white collar.
Truthfully, Kairi had been scared that it would have been, well, not so white. Same with her own room and the color pink. "Oh my gosh, Naminé! I'm sure you'll like it here." She promised, grinning. She looked absentmindedly at the black watch on her arm, and almost screamed. 7:10! School started at 8:00, but all students had to be there at 7:25.
"Naminé!" Kairi shrieked, jumping up and down in shock. "Aqua said that school was just behind those trees, we can go through the path, and there would be like, two more houses before the school, right?" She asked, half asking half screaming.
Naminé thought about this for a second, before nodding eagerly. "Yeah, that's what Aqua said. Okay, you all ready?" She asked softly.
Kairi shook her head. "I got to make my lunch; but I don't really need to pack my bag with anything but empty folders, and I did that all last night. Wait for me, though!" She said as she scurried down the hallway before she ran-almost-fell down the stairs, and by quick, fast footsteps, she could tell Naminé was right behind her.
By the time Kairi had reached her Spanish homeroom, her arms ached from being pushed around and her mind was spinning from trying to remember all the Spanish she could think of.
The teacher in front wasn't exactly old, but she wasn't young, either. She had long ugly blonde hair, (unlike Naminé's) wrinkles all over her face, and her glasses were pushed up her long nose as she let out a sneer-like smile. "We have a new student this year, please welcome Kairi, uh, what's your last name, sweetie?"
Kairi paused, thinking. What were Aqua and Ventus's last names? Right as it popped in her head, the teacher sighed. "Fine. Don't tell me. She has a sister Naminé that decided to take French, and tomorrow, a boy and a girl are joining the grade, one taking German and one taking French so settle down children. Take a seat next to Selphie Andrews, dear."
Kairi slid in next to a brunette, who squeaked with joy as Kairi sat next to her. "OMG! Hi, Kairi! I'm Selphie! It's really unfair that we start school August 30th, right? In Twilight Town-a whole other world!- they start on the 4th. Of September! It's so unfair!"
As Selphie continued her long rant about school, Kairi looked around the room. She paused at a boy with a large bandage over his shoulder, his aqua eyes clouded with a threatening I'll-kill-you-if-you-ask-me-how-I-got-this glare, and his silver hair drooped lightly over his right eye, but it was impossible for him to brush it away without wincing in pain at moving his shoulder.
Kairi waited patiently for the rant to be over, before she asked, "W-Who is that?" She stammered, and Selphie looked over, possibly thinking Kairi had found a hot guy.
"Oh." Selphie's voice dropped. "That's Riku. He's friends with my friend Tidus, and they all sit together at lunch, or whenever they have classes together."
Kairi, remembering the night before, asked quietly, "Does, um, one of their friends have brown spiky hair, sea colored eyes, tan skin, and that?"
Selphie's face poured into an enormous grin. "Well, yeah. There's Sora. He doesn't go anywhere without his brother Roxas, so if you've seen him, Roxas was probably there too. And hey, where'd you meet him?"
The redhead blinked, wondering how to put it in words. "Well . . . when I was stargazing with my sister, he was watching us! But Roxas was probably there, too. So they were watching us, but I only figured it own when I looked out my window in my room! He was staring right at me!" Kairi pouted, but Selphie's grin just got bigger.
"I'll show you to him later in the day, okay?" Selphie asked, before muttering under her breath, "I would've thought he was the least perverted."
Naminé was seated in her French homeroom, quietly paying attention to the teacher as some people whispered and laughed in her direction. Nobody had even tried to talk to her; except for one girl, Xion. Xion was slightly shorter than Naminé, with raven black hair and blue eyes that looked hauntingly familiar. She sat behind Naminé, and it already seemed like they had known each other for a really long time.
"Bonjour, étudiants." The teacher, Mrs. Ripple, said, meaning "Hello, students." Naminé instantly realized this, and piped up with the rest of the class, "Bonjour, Ripple Madame."
Suddenly, a boy burst in, making Naminé, as the scared person she is, shriek oddly. He had spiky strawberry blonde haïr, and his icy blue eyes glazed the room. "Bonjour, Ripple Madame." He said, and Naminé had never heard such a sweet voice. Grinning with amusement at her stupidity, she watched as Mrs. Ripple assigned the boy a seat next to Naminé, and she instantly froze.
The boy plopped down, before looking at Naminé. "Oh! You're the new girl, right? I'm Roxas!" He said gleefully, reaching out his hand.
Suspiciously, she took it. "Naminé." She introduced herself, not knowing this boy just changed her life forever.
Hayner sat next to Olette on the train, flinching as it chugged along. Olette had her nose shoved in a book, and Hayner could barely make out Warriors: Midnight. Hayner laughed, thinking, leave it to Olette to read a cat book! She looked up, smiled at him shyly, before looking back at her book.
She'll never know...
Do you think the gang needs last names? Selphie needed one badly, but should the others? Tell me your thoughts!
In The Next Chapter…. :
"WHAT DID YOU DO? IT'S RUINED!"
"He deserved to die! Don't look at me like that!"
