"So. Riku. I hear you got creamed by Seifer and company." I cringe at the voice and turn around to face the small blonde. Roxas Strife, anorexic-looking blonde twin to my love. Roxas is beyond skinny, yet Axel loves him so much. Sora is bigger boned and has that little tummy I love… Well, let's just say that Roxas is not my type and quit comparing.
"Yeah, what's it to ya Blondie?"I growl. He shrugs indifferently.
"Sora wanted to know why you saved him. I'm just the messenger, I, frankly, don't really give a fuck otherwise." I feel my eyes widen. Roxas does not swear much. Or do favors.
"I-I… I did it cause I like him" The words are out before I can stop them. Roxas gasps and looks at me expectantly, like I'm going to laugh and say it's a joke.
"Criminey, you aren't kidding…" He turns tail and sprints away. Oh shit. I think I just ruined me and Sora's friendship.
=.=.=.=.=
All day, I try to restrain my self. Not to start sobbing in the middle of class. Not to go running to Sora to explain how it's a mistake. Not to go into the bathroom and use my emergency razor. Good job Riku, you really fucked it up this time…
"Hey, Riku, man, come here!" I jump and look around. Axel and Roxas wave at me from the door of the empty classroom I'm sitting in. I grimace, there's no escape… they're going to bitch me out or something. Or ask me to join their twosome to make it a threesome. Oh yeah, right after I told Sora I liked Roxas, the blonde started dating Axel. Just my luck, Sora got extremely confused with that.
"What the hell do ya want guys? I'm trying to mope in peace." Roxas laughs and Axel rolls his eyes. They exchange an odd look, and Axel shrugs, making Roxas grin ear to ear. Damn, the silent talking, makes me want to hit something…
Axel turns to me and frowns. "Riku, Roxas mentioned earlier and he said he talked to Sora about it… and how at one point you said something about liking Roxas…" I feel the blood drain from my face. Shit shit shit…
"What he meant to say," Roxas growls, slapping the red head, "is that Sora wanted to talk to you. So we'll talk to you later…" Roxas, drags Axel out, leaving me alone again. What the fuck was that about? I sigh to myself and pull out my iPod, cranking up Placebo and closing my eyes, humming to myself.
I don't know how much time passes when I finally decide I should go home for the evening. I open my eyes and start wrapping up my earbuds when . I notice a random book bag sitting on a table a few feet eyes widen when I realize who's book bag it is. Sora's. I slowly walk overto the table it's on and sure enough, he's lying under the table, staring up at me. He's not at all surprised to see me.
"Hey 'Ku… I wanted to talk to you… Sit with me please?" I sit down slowly, making sure I can make a break for it if I need to. I smile at him like I always do when he's around and he grins back.
"I wanted to say thanks for saving me, I know you got pretty beat up. So thanks." Suddenly he jumps at me, wrapping his arms around my waist in a nearly crushing hug. I wrap my arms around him, sighing and savoring his warmth, especially since I'm always cold nowadays.
"Anything for you Sora."I whisper back, smiling lightly. After a few more moments, he pulls away. Immediately I feel cold again.
"I gotta get home now, make sure Roxas isn't breaking any rules with Axel…" I laugh and sora grins again. He grabs his things again heads to the door, giving me a final look before he walks through. I sigh, my smile falling. I wonder if Roxas actually mentioned what happen? Huh. Well, looks like things are safe for now, thank gods.
