Drabble .oo2: Smile
Neku

He never smiled, he never laughed, he had no friends, and now, Neku Sakuraba was standing in front of you in the cafeteria line. Loud (and almost incoherent) rock blared from his headphones as he silently followed the progressing line. His closed eyes (which made it confusing, seeing as to how he still hasn't bumped into anything while walking) made him seem more intimidating but helped place the mysterious air about him. You gulped almost unnecessarily, before fruitlessly attempting 'small talk.'

"So…Neku…" You said. Neku answered with opening his eyes to mere slits. He was simply looking at you over his shoulder. "H-how was your algebra final?"

You could barely see him roll his eyes. "Tomorrow." Neku answered flatly.

A lump formed in your throat and the anxiety didn't do anything to make it feel better. "Oh…kay. So, how about history?" You pressed on, slightly annoyed at the progression you were making. Neku was so…emotionless.

"After lunch."

Seriously, okay now, you were getting angry. Here you were, trying to be friendly with this buddy, and Neku was just writing you off! He was placing a sandwich on his tray, acting as if nothing had happened. (In his mind, nothing really had.) Your eyebrows furrowed. "Neku! Do you like, have some sort of problem with me?!?"

He turned around to face you. His indifferent eyes nearly made you scream, but you managed to hold it all in. "No, ---, I don't."

"Then why don't you at least smile!" You yelled at the top of your lungs. By now, every head in the room had looked to see why you were yelling and why you would be yelling at Neku. He never really did anything particular to set anyone off. Neku and you continued to argue, and just like his music, incoherently. With your resentment boiling up in you, you stepped up and got in Neku's face. However, while stepping up, you slipped on the wet tile.

Falling, your lunch splattered the floor and temporarily blinded your eyesight. You could still here everyone in the cafeteria laughing at you. But when you wiped off the food from your eyes, you were surprised by what Neku was doing. "H-hey! You're smiling!"

He smirked, joining in the laughter. "Y-yeah, 'cause you're sitting in a pile of crap."

You blushed, because, after all, he was right.


Ash: HA!
Sora: What?
Ash: Is that still epic fail!
Sora: Not as much as the last chapter.
Ash: Sigh, you're right. Anyways, I forgot to say in the last chapter that I do not own KH or TWEWY or FF in anyway. Thank you to Shana-chan for the advice! (I hope I heeded it!)
Sora: You know, this is Neku's chapter, but he hasn't actually appeared here yet.
Nekky-kun (WTF!): And why is this still in the KH section?
Ash: I hoped you wouldn't call me on that. It's here because the stories really don't include KH, TWEWY or FF at the same time. So, yeah. Thank you for reading!
