Chapter 2: It's a Bad Omen!

Namine's POV

000000000000000

Beep!

I groaned, cracking an eye open and looking at the impossible electronic that awoke me from my slumber. It clearly read '6:00' on it in that neon green writing, flashing every second. The beeping got louder with every passing moment that I didn't turn it off, but I didn't feel like getting out of bed, let alone reaching my arm out from under the warmth and comfort of my blanket to stop the annoying beeping.

"TURN OFF YOUR FRICKIN' ALARM CLOCK ALREADY, NAMINE!" I sighed as Cloud, my older brother's voice screamed through the house, obviously getting annoyed with the sound of my clock. He was a Senior, but he had late arrival, meaning he didn't haul his butt out of bed until about an hour after I was in school. I then heard the thump of one of Cloud's possessions hitting the wall, right where my head would be if the wall wasn't there.

"Okay, okay." I said, as if he was in the same room as me. I threw the thick blanket off of me, hitting the reset button on my alarm clock, as finally there was silence in the house. With a yawn, I kicked my feet over the side of the bed, letting them touch the ground, and I stood up. I lazily went over to my window, looking out of it. Everything looked like it normally did when I looked out of it, except for the fact that it was raining. And it never ever ever rained this hard around this time of the year.

"It has to be a bad omen..." I murmured to myself, sighing as I looked straight out of my window, seeing a blonde-haired boy just waking up. Yes, it was Roxas. And yes, I lived next door to him. He looked out the window with half-lidded eyes, spotting me, as he waved. I smiled shyly, waving back to him, before I turned around, deciding I might as well start getting ready for the day that would either make or break my highschool life.

I walked over to my dresser, where my school uniform laid clean, and neatly folded. I smiled to myself. I loved my mom, she always made sure I was taken care of. My dad at this point in time would be in work, and wouldn't get home until well after Cloud and I got home. But anyways, I picked up my uniform, heading out of my bedroom and to the bathroom on the second floor. When I finally got in, I took a shower, blow-dried my hair, brushed my teeth, and all the stuff normal girls do when they get ready for school, minus the taking forever and a half. I never was like those girls like Kairi and Ollete, whom take forever to make themselves look pretty.

But anyways, after I had my school uniform on and my hair brushed, I headed out of the bathroom, and down the stairs, nearly slipping a couple of times. I was never coordinated when it came to going down my house's stairs while wearing my school socks. Or maybe it was the fact that I was even more of a klutz then Olette. I just managed to hide it well in public.

But when I finally got down my steps of doom, I headed in to the kitchen, and there sat my mom, reading a magazine while munching lazily on a waffle. "Hey, mom." I said quietly, as my mom looked up with her blue eyes, smiling widely at me. "Oh, Namine, you shut your alarm clock off earlier than usual... were you finally merciful on your brother?" My mom joked, as I laughed. I walked over to the table, sitting across from her. A plate of waffles already were in-front of me, as I picked up the syrup, drizzling it on my waffles.

"No... it's just, today's a big day." I replied, as I picked up the butter-knife and fork sitting on either side of the plate, cutting in to my waffle, while side-glancing at the time. 6:45, that gave me 15 minutes to eat my waffles in relative slowness. My mom looked at me, with an eyebrow raised. It was obvious she wanted to know what was so important today, but I just smiled uneasily, and she knew to back off on the subject.

"Well, I hope whatever it is, it goes well." She said, as she went back to reading her magazine, flipping the page every minute or so. No, she wasn't illiterate or anything. My mom was observant. She took the time to go over every page at least twice, if not three times. Weird, yes. But it helped her at her job of being annoyingly alert to subtle changes in the way her kids act.

The next fifteen minutes flew by almost, and the next thing I knew I was at my front door, putting on my school shoes. My mom stood in the kitchen door-way, watching me attentively. It was like she was reading my every movement, as if she desperately was searching for a crack in my shield, so she could find out what was so big about today.

I stood up, turning to my mom. For awhile, she looked as if she was about to ask me something, but then she just smile warmly at me. I half-groaned in my mind. That means she knew what my problem was about, but not all the details as to how I'd go about solving it. She always did that look, whenever I tried to hide something from her. Nothing got past that woman.

"Say hello to Roxas for me." She said so smoothly, so lovingly, that only I would know she was cracking up on the inside. I smiled back, nodding. "Will do, mom. Will do." It was a mental war between my mother and I now, as we just stood there, smiling at each other. She then laughed, as her eyes lit up.

"Have a nice day, honey." She said, walking back in to the kitchen, as I sighed to myself, turning around and opening my front door. I walked out, umbrella open and in hand, and closed my door behind me. Let the possible best/worse day of my life start... now.

"Hey, Namine."I looked up, smiling at Roxas. We always walked to school together, which wasn't that big of a surprise. I mean, come on, we live right next-door to each other. Plus, Roxas and I had the fortune of living relatively close to the school, meaning no over-loaded bus for us. The only minus of living where I was now is that it was practically like walking a marathon to get to the café, Kairi's, or Olette's house.

"Hey." I replied, reverting to my shy self. I've noticed this, ever since middle school. I always think so care-free, but on the outside I shied away from the world, settling for being the girl who gave the reassuring smiles.

Without another word, the two of us marched on our way to school, chatting along the way every now and then about silly things. Well... it was more like Roxas talking and me offering short answers, questions, nods, and laughs. But, that was besides the point. Eventually we made it to the school, as we walked in.

"Hey, Namine, wanna hang out with me before first period?" Roxas asked me, as we both closed our umbrellas, I gave him an apologetic look, sighing. Normally I would jump for any chance to spend time with him, since he was so popular, and I had the crush on him, obviously. But today, of course, was a no-can-do.

"I'm sorry, Roxas. I kinda promised Kairi and Olette that I'd hang out with them before school today. See you in first period?" I asked, as he smiled warmly, and nodded. "Fine, but I call dibs after-school!" We both laughed, heading off to where our lockers were. We came upon mine first, as Roxas had to walk about two classrooms down to get to his.

I quickly opened my locker, shoving my umbrella in it. I carried my school bag around anyways, since I found it troublesome to stop at my locker in-between classes. So, closing my locker and locking it, I headed to the girl's lav on the left side of the second floor. That's the one that was closest to Olette and Kairi's lockers, so they would probably be lounging around in there, waiting for me with whatever colored sharpie Kairi had chosen to grace us with.

I ran up the steps as quickly as I could, not wanting to keep them waiting. And on the way, I said hello to all my friends I passed. The only real high-light of my walk was when Axel and Demyx, two friends of Roxas, actually waved to me, both sporting grins. Normally, that part of Roxas's friends didn't even acknowledge my existence, since we never really encountered each other before. But this year I had art with Axel, and band with Demyx, so we finally started talking.

But moving on, I finally got to the bathroom, walking in. And right there stood Kairi and Olette, lazily reading the graffiti on the bathroom stalls. Olette's face spread with a grin upon reading something, as she waved me over, pointing at one piece of writing upon the wall. My eyes nearly popped out at reading what it said, making Olette burst out laughing.

Rikku and Roxas 4eva

"This 'Rikku' girl seems to really like Roxy." Olette said, a wide grin set on her face. "You've got competition, Nam!" She said, as I glared at her. But let's face it, if looks could kill, my glare wouldn't of harmed a fly. "Then what's this?" Kairi said, a smirk upon her face. She only got that look whenever she was gonna dish out the teasing Olette was dishing to someone else.

She pointed to some writing scrawled in purple sharpie, as Olette looked as if she was ready to explode in anger.

Yuna and Hayner 4eva

Olette gagged, pouting as she refused to look at the writing on the stall any longer. "Please, I know who that Yuna girl is. She is nothing compared to me." Everyone was silent for a long bit, before we all busted in to hysterics. After our giggles died down, Kairi adopted a serious look on her face, as Olette and I also grew serious.

"Here's our weapon." Kairi said, pulling out a black sharpie from her shoe. Don't ask me why she kept her pencils and pens in her shoes, but she just did. I don't know why, though. It couldn't of been that comfortable to walk around with those in your shoes. But moving on, Olette and I stared in awe of the sharpie, as if it was the first time we had ever seen one in our lives.

"Good ol' black. The hardest color to rub off." Kairi said, meaning to lighten the mood, but an awkward silence ensued after this. I'm sure Kairi and Olette were thinking the same thing as I was right now.

'I can't believe we're actually gonna go through with this.'

"...Well, are we sure of what time we're ending it?" Olette asked. She always hated silence, since she always had people talking to her from the time she woke up to the time she went to sleep. "Yeah, at 12:05. Right when the 7th period bell rings." Kairi explained, as we both nodded. She then walked in to the stall of the door we were just reading, as she un-capped the sharpie, grinning.

"Who wants to label me?" Kairi announced, as Olette giggled. "I will, so then you can do me right after." Olette walked in to the stall with Kairi, as the closed the door, and I stood there awkwardly for a few seconds. All I could hear was a muffled, "It tickles!" coming from Olette, and Kairi telling her to hold still. After that, I waited an extra 30 seconds, and then the girls finally opened the door, and Olette exited.

"Come on, Namine. I'll do you." Kairi said, smiling gently. The only reason I could come up with for her smiling that way was probably my face, which most likely looked like I was a deer caught in head-lights. I hesitated at first, but eventually gave in, heading in to the stall, where Kairi stood. When I got in, Kairi shut the stall door, locking it, leaving us stuck in the small space.

"Turn to the side, Namine, and hold up your skirt." Kairi whispered to me, and I nodded, slightly uncomfortable with this. But nether-the-less, I did as she said, turning so my left hip faced Kairi, and I picked up my skirt carefully, only enough so she could write on the part of my hip that was covered by my skirt.

"This will tickle." Kairi said, as I felt the cool ink of the sharpie hit my skin, and I shuddered. I bit my lip while she wrote on my hip, to keep from giggling of laughing. And then she finally finished, blowing on what she wrote. "All done!" She said to herself, in satisfaction, as she opened the stall door, and we both walked out.

"Let the games begin."

Okay, this chapter was a meanie to upload.

My computer screen finally decided to take a crap on me, of course. -.-' So my mom messed with my lap-top for like, 2 hours trying to connect it to the internet, since we just got a new wireless router, so my lap-top wasn't connected to the internet. But, we finally fixed the problem. Thank god.

Oh well, instead of listening to me complain, you know what you should be doing...?
