Chapter Two: How to Escape 101
Author's ranting: The only times I can get on the computer now seem to be really late. Maybe this won't affect my updating too much, or hopefully it won't anyway. Now that most of our projects and stuff are done with I have more time to write. -Strikes a pose- Now onto the fic!

Time went by slowly for the rest of the first period. Sora had begun to fall asleep when the bell rang and Riku was called back into class. He massaged his arms a bit before picking up his bag.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to get you in trouble," Sora apologized.
"Nah, it was all in the name of good fun. Axel seemed to get a kick out of it anyway. Say, what class do you have next?"
The brunette opened his mouth as though to speak but nothing came out. He just stayed like that for a while with a dumbfounded look on his face. "I…forgot. I think it was English though."
"Hm English is it? Have fun in there, it's about as interesting as Axel trying to be funny."
The boy smiled at this analogy, he could picture it in his mind. "I'll try. See you later!"
"Laters. Oh and at recess come outside and look for a bent palm tree. We always hang out around there."
With a nod Sora parted with his friend, heading to english while Riku went to history.

Once more Sora sighed in his second period class. None of the people he met in his physics class were present. Since all the early year's work was always a review, he didn't even need to listen. So he spent the entire period drawing on his desk and wondering how many other classes would be this boring. After about five drawings were completed, Sora began to doze off. His head would droop and then he'd wake up to find his face falling onto the desk, making him pull his head back swiftly. This continued for a while, drawing odd gazes from the people around him. As his head began its descent again, a chalkboard eraser suddenly came out of nowehere and hit Sora square in the face with a large poof. The white dust flew everywhere and he was left with a completely white face.
"Falling asleep in my class eh?" the teacher asked.
"Sorry Mr.Cid," Sora replied glumly. He seemed to be apologizing a lot considering it was only his first day at school.
Mr.Cid opened his mouth as though to lecture the boy but the bells rang before he could utter a word. "Augh, you're all excused."
Sora hastily grabbed all of his things and bolted out the door, not wanting to be yelled at by Mr.Cid. He didn't even bother to brush off his face that was still covered in the nasty stuff. When he ran out the door he bumped into someone who also seemed to be in a rush to get out. Looking up to see who it was, Sora was embarrassed to find Riku standing in front of him with an amused look.
"Should I even bother to ask what happened to you?" Sora gave a pout when he began to laugh at the sight of his white face. "Here, let's get you cleaned up."
He offered a hand that Sora took, helping him onto his feet.
"Mr.Cid sure is a grumpy old man," the brunette muttered.
"You have no idea, trust me."
Sora raised an eyebrow to that. He wondered what Riku could've possibly done to anger the english teacher that much. Silently he made a mental note to ask the boy about it later. Right now he had to focus on getting his face clean again. Riku led him through the halls and blocked most people's view of Sora to save him some teasing. Finally they came across a water fountain where Sora began to put some of the water in his hand to wash his face with. All the while Riku stayed with him and watched. When the monstrous white dust was all gone, Sora flashed one of his best smiles up at his friend. "Thanks."
Riku melted at that smile, and was frozen in place for a while. Eventually Sora got worried that he had done or said something wrong.
"Riku? Are you okay?"
"Huh? Oh...yeah, it's nothing..."
Before Sora could ask what he was looking at, he was being dragged back through the halls by Riku. He only let go when they got to what Sora assumed were the front doors. Pushing one door open, Riku suddenly stopped dead in his tracks.
"What's wrong?" Sora asked, looking around the boy to see what he stopped for. Staring back at him was a group of girls. He recognized a few from his physics class- Selphie, Kairi, and Yuffie he believed they were called.
"You didn't see us," Riku told them as he slowly closed the door again and rushed back down the hall, dragging Sora behind him again. Freakishly enough they could hear the girls looking for them in the halls as ran as fast as they could. A sense of emergency flooded Riku and he quickly slipped into a dark empty room with Sora not far behind. A few of the girls saw him unfortunately, but they were in for a little surprise.
"They're in here!" one of the girls called to the rest. She gripped the handles of the door and pulled it open, but fainted at the sight she saw soon after.

Sora gulped as he slid into the empty room behind Riku. It had no windows at all, making it quite stuffy and dark. He flinched when something cold touched his arm. The cold object withdrew and he realized that it was Riku.They heard the girl call for her friends and Riku swore as the door handle began to turn.
"Well Sora, sorry for doing this but it's the only safe way outta here."
"What do you mean?"
The silver haired boy knew that there was only one thing that could distract the girls long enough to get past them. It was risky, but worth a try. As soon as the door started to open Riku suddenly pinned the smaller boy to the wall.
"Don't panic, I know what I'm doing," he whispered into his ear.
Sora felt as though those words were supposed to comfort him somehow but he was still too busy freaking out. Sure it wasn't the first time that a boy advanced on him, but this was just shocking. He didn't get a warning that this was going to happen either. When the door was fully open Riku dropped his head to nibble along the brunette's neck. This action made him blush a bright crimson. The girl in the doorway seemed petrified and her mouth hung partially open. Yet it didn't have the desired effect on her so Riku muttered into the ear above him. "Play along, ne?"
Swallowing what pride he had left, he gave a short nod. When the girls (there were now many staring at the scene in front of them in shock) began to regain their senses, Sora stepped in.
"A...ah...Riku," he partially moaned,"Stop it..."
The 'seme' was surprised as to how skilled the boy was at faking it. If he were one of the girls, he would've passed it off as genuine. He watched as they all swooned and some even fainted or got nosebleeds.
"This' our chance!" he told Sora as he picked him up and made a mad dash for outside once more. They were successful this time, and Sora was struggling to get out of his friend's arms.
"I can't believe we just did that," he huffed. Not able to look Riku in the eye anbymore he averted his gaze.
"Yeah well. It seemed like a good idea at the time."
Of course it became apparent that he was purposely not looking at him, so Riku gave a small laugh and decided to tease the boy a little more.
"Well rumors spread like a wild fire here and this is no exception. It'll be all over the school that we're an item by the next period," he said, trying to act serious.
"What! You've got to be kidding me!" Sora hung his head and groaned loudly.
"Nah. Just tell everyone that the girls must have been delirious with the excitement of new students. Happens all the time."
Riku remembered when he was new. The girls had created a 'We love Riku' club within the first three days of his attendance. He constantly had to run away, hide, disguise himself...Anything to get away from them. Glancing at his watch, the silver haired boy realized that they just spent nearly all of the recess period attempting to get rid of their club.
"We should get going already. See you at lunch recess honey!" he said, mockingly blowing a kiss to his 'wife'. Sora's reaction was to stare at the boy's retreating form with a blank expression.
"How could all of this not faze him at all?"

Preview for the next chapter:
Both RIku and Axel were best friends. They had met eachother two years back when Riku was still a freshman. And yet here they were, in the same grade and taking the same courses. There was an odd silence between them today, for both of the boys were busy thinking about a certain twin.
"So...," Riku attempted to start a conversation between them.
"You were out with Sora at recess I assume?"
"Oh, I see the girls have already gossiped to you."
Axel gave a shrug, fiddling with his pencil. He had already 'finished' his math homework for the day. Of course by finished he meant that he was done copying the answers off of Riku's paper. "I see nothing wrong with you and that boy. But if you touch Roxas..."
Riku grinned at Axel. It was unusual for him to get so protective, especially over a boy. "You don't have to worry about anything like that."
