The sun was annoyingly bright, but it was noon in the middle of the summer, so what had he been expecting?
Roxas rubbed his face for the thousandth time, yawning. He wasn't a morning person, and, to add to his misery, his twin was. He glared as Sora stared, wide-eyed around the tall main building.
It was a closed campus, with a small diner/café, dorm buildings, and the main building which housed the cafeteria and classrooms. The grass surrounding them was so green, it looked fake and the few trees that grew were tied firmly to posts driven deep into the ground.
And each one had a fucking fence around it. A fence!
Who put a fence around a tree? Not to mention around each and every one of the hundreds of trees on a campus of this size?
"Rox, look at all these people!" Sora cried excitedly, pointing at the crowds walking past, some moving with purpose and others simply wandering. Several turned to stare at them at Sora's outburst and Roxas had never wished more to be able to choke his twin.
"There aren't that many people here, Sora." Roxas bit out between clenched teeth. More people went to their high school. Well…maybe not more, probably the same amount. But, Christ, Sora was making an idiot out of himself by gaping at the college like a small town kid coming to the big city for the first time.
Sora seemed to catch himself momentarily. Hands on his hips, he gave Roxas a dirty look.
"I know that, Roxy. I was just sayin'."
Roxas rubbed his forehead. He still wasn't awake, and Sora's typical behavior didn't help with the headache he was starting to get.
"Whatever, let's just go find our dorm, ok?"
Roxas led Sora over to a line of tables set up where new students and returning students were checking in and getting their class schedules.
"Name," a medium sized man with silver hair and glasses barked when Roxas and Sora stopped at his table.
"Um, Sora and Roxas Hikari." Roxas answered, setting his bags down so he could take the envelope the man shoved at them. (Sorry I can't be more creative with the last name XP)
"My name is Staley. But you can just call me Sir." He gave the twins a harsh look before looking back down at his clipboard, checking off their names. "I'm the head of your dorm, and what I say goes."
"Yes, Sir." Roxas replied quietly. This guy was kind of an asshole, not that he was going to say so aloud. He tossed Sora a look and his twin nodded slightly, a small smile on his face. It was always like that between them. What one thought, the other knew. They could read each other's emotions almost better than they could express their own. Not that that was a big feat, since what one felt, the other usually mirrored.
"In that envelope is your class schedules, list of activities, a map of the campus, and your dorm room number. You'll be sharing you dorm with other students, so learn to share." Staley droned, seemingly bored with the speech he'd likely spouted for years.
"Yes, Sir." Sora and Roxas said at the same time, earning a glare from Staley.
"You two mocking me, now?" he said in a low, threatening tone.
"No, Sir." They said together again. They looked at each other, and burst into giggles. It couldn't be helped, it happened at random moments. The twins would say the same thing at the same time, and it did seem like they were being smart, but the truth was, they couldn't help it.
"Get out of here," Staley snapped, waving the two away before calling, "Next!"
Roxas and Sora stumbled away, dragging their bags and still laughing.
"Did you see the look on his face?" Sora giggled.
"Yeah, he looked pissed!" Roxas nodded, agreeing. Despite how annoying his twin could be, he wouldn't trade Sora for anything in the world.
They were walking towards their dorm building, still laughing over how they'd unintentionally pissed someone off, when they both were slammed into by another body rushing past them.
"Ow!" Sora snapped as he sat up, rubbing his elbow.
"Damn it!" Roxas yelled. He brushed the dirt off of his white shirt as he stood. He turned to face the person who'd crashed into them. "Hey, what the hell's your problem?"
Standing in front of them, looking embarrassed, were two guys. One of them was a bit on the short side, wearing a pair of a tight, black jeans and a form-fitting, zippered sweater, his hair a strange, silver-blue color. One side was flipped over, covering his right eye from sight. The left eye that stared out at them was a deep, violet-blue. He was expressionless, almost cold looking.
The second guy was taller, wearing a pair of faded blue jeans and a dark blue tank top that showed off his lithe musculature. He had short, dirty blond hair that looked as if it had been hacked off with a chainsaw. The half-mohawk, half-mullet style seemed to work for him though. His large eyes were a deep, green-blue and he was smiling ruefully.
But neither were the one who'd knocked the twins to the ground.
"Axel, you asshole, watch were you're going." The blond said.
Roxas glanced up and saw who had knocked him and his brother down. He was easily the tallest, skinniest, not the mention the most gorgeous, guy Roxas had ever seen.
Wait…did I just think he was 'gorgeous'?! Roxas thought in a panic.
His hair was a bright, flaming red, the back spiked. His eyes were a startling shade of green that reminded Roxas of cat's eyes. What was more startling than the eyes themselves, were the two upside down, triangular tattoos beneath each one. Roxas winced just thinking about how much that had to have hurt to get done.
The redhead was wearing a pair of jeans with holes torn in both knees and duct tape holding the seams together. His shirt was black with a single red stripe across the chest that matched his hair.
And he was staring at Roxas just as intently as Roxas was staring at him.
His face turning red, Roxas looked away. "It's no big deal," he mumbled, helping Sora to his feet.
"You should really watch where the hell you're going, kid." The redhead snapped, giving Roxas a shove.
"Me?!" Roxas shouted. "YOU were the one who ran into ME. Why don't YOU watch where YOU'RE going?" he shoved the redhead back. The two began shoving each other, muttering curses back and forth.
"Rox, stop it, it's not worth it." Sora pleaded, trying to pull his brother off of the stranger. "Let's just go."
"The kid's got a point, Ax, let's go." The blond demanded.
"Wait!"
Everyone stopped, staring at the redhead who was watching a panting Roxas with a sudden, severe intent. He shrugged his friends off and walked up to Roxas until their bodies nearly touched. Roxas' face turned a deeper shade of red, but he didn't move.
-------------
Axel was amazed. Most people backed down when he started a fight. But not this little cutie. This kid was something else.
He was short, only about chest level with Axel himself, and looked almost…frail. His hair was golden blond and sticking up to the side in spikes.
But his eyes….oh, his eyes were the most magnificent thing Axel had ever seen.
They weren't just blue…they were blue, if that made any sense. The deepest, most amazing blue…
The boy was dressed in a pair of long, khaki shorts that reached to his knees and a long sleeved, white top. He was the most adorable thing standing there, panting heavily, his blue, blue eyes narrowed in anger, his fists clenched at his sides.
"Before I go…I just have one more thing to say," Axel murmured, leaning down.
The boy's eyes grew wide, but Axel struck before he could pull away.
Axel dove forward, pressing his lips firmly against the boy's. He held onto his upper arms, keeping the kid from pulling away.
Axel deepened the forced kiss, stroking his tongue slowly across the others lips.
"So cute…" he whispered.
The boy gasped and, just as Axel was about to take advantage of his open mouth…he was punched viciously in the head.
He yanked himself away from the kid. "Ow, what the fuck?" he rubbed his head and stared down at the boy, who looked beyond pissed and downright homicidal.
------------
Roxas couldn't believe that the redhead had kissed him. Kissed him.
It wasn't that he was homophobic, oh no, quite the contrary. Roxas himself was bisexual, but the fact that a total stranger, and an asshole at that, had just kissed him without permission…ugh!
"Don't you ever, EVER, touch me again, you filthy man whore!" he snarled, unable to come up with anything better than that. The redhead simply smiled at him and leaned down once more.
Roxas backed away quickly, his fists going up in defense.
------------
Zexion and Demyx grabbed Axel from behind and forced him away from the two younger boys.
"That's enough, Ax." Demyx said quietly, dragging the taller redhead.
Zexion just found the entire situation humorous and couldn't stop laughing, which was unlike him.
"Filthy man whore, I love it!" he chuckled some more. "That kid knows you well, and he hasn't even known you more than two minutes."
-----------
Sora gently touched his brother's tense shoulder.
"Rox?" he asked, shaking his brother a bit. "Roxas? Roxas!"
Roxas blinked, finally noticing his twin. "What?" he looked around but couldn't find a trace of the three guys they'd just run into.
Then he remembered the redhead and felt his temper flare again.
"That damn bastard! Who does he think he is, just going around and kissing people like that?"
"Uh, Rox, he only seemed to be kissing you." Sora teased, jumping away before Roxas could punch him.
"Shut up, you." Roxas snapped. He sighed in disgust. "With any luck, we'll never see those guys again." He hoped so. Roxas had found a new hate on his first day of college. That redhead was overbearing and inconsiderate.
Translation: asshole.
"I dunno…you seemed pretty into it, Rox." Sora continued with the teasing, skipping in circles around Roxas as they kept walking towards their dorm building in search of their room.
Roxas growled at his twin. "I said shut up, Sora."
"Alright, alright," Sora conceded. "I'll leave you alone about it." He giggled. "He was kinda cute though…and he was totally into you!" Sora wasn't gay or bi himself, at least, that's what he claimed, but he fully supported his brother.
"I hate him. Hate him." Roxas said vehemently. "He'd better steer clear, because if I get my hands on him, he'll wish he never met me."
"Technically…he didn't meet you, Rox. He just ran into you and started macking." (for those of you who don't know what 'macking' means, it's intense, usually forced, kissing)
Roxas closed his eyes, praying for patience. He didn't want to kill his twin. He loved Sora dearly….but if he didn't stop soon, Roxas was gong to have to take action. And neither of them would enjoy the experience.
"Let's just get to our room."
"Okay, fine." Sora mumbled, still smiling. Thank god he'd stopped with the taunting though…
"Let's see here…building B…room 8." Roxas muttered as they walked into the building marked with a bright, red B next to the door. Just inside was a large common room with several over stuffed couches. A couple of people lounged on the couches, playing video games of just talking. Three hallways branched off from the common room. One on the far wall, one on the left and the other on the right.
Sora craned his neck to look at every corner of the room. Roxas just dragged his brother through the common room by the collar, along with their bags, to the hallway on the left. He counted as he passed each room.
"1…2…3….4…5…6…" he kept walking, dragging his cargo behind him while ignoring Sora's protests at being 'manhandled' as he put it. "7…8, here we are." Roxas dropped his brother and his bags, pushing open the door.
The room was a typical dorm room. Two bunk beds on either side of the room and a single twin-sized bed against the far wall. There were three desks in each corner and a large, walk in closet.
Sora ran over to one of the bunk beds and claimed the top bunk.
"Wow, Rox, we haven't had bunk beds since we were kids! This is great!" he bounced on the bed, smacking his head on the ceiling. "Ow!" Sora dropped to his knees, holding the top of his head.
Roxas laughed at his brother as he tossed his bags on the bed below Sora.
"You dork. And yes, I do remember when we had bunk beds." They'd fought over who got to sleep on top. Of course, though Sora won, it hadn't mattered. His twin had always climbed down and slept with Roxas anyway.
"I'm gonna make my bed!" Sora announced, reaching down, his fingers wiggling as he struggled to grasp his bag from three feet away. Basically asking Roxas to hand it to him.
Smiling, Roxas lifted the bag up to his brother, who snatched it away with a giggle and started to yank his bedding out.
They joked and laughed together as they made their beds and started taking out their clothes.
They grew silent, however, when the door to their room was flung carelessly open, slamming into the wall.
Roxas and Sora watched, wide-eyed, as three familiar figures entered the room, duffle bags and suitcases slung over their shoulders.
Roxas' face turned red as he glared. He pointed at a painfully familiar redhead. Said redhead also pointed, but he instead wore a look of pure happiness.
"YOU!" they shouted at the same time.
Oh, boy, the three others thought.
WEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! ok...i'm calm again...hehe...
So, how'd ya like it? Yeah, i was witness to the crime of watching some stranger kissing my friend without his permission. The dude was just messing with him, but still...twas funny when he got punched in the head (laughs and falls over) ow...
Oh, and that Staley character...he's actually a real person...yeah, an assistant principal at my high school...he's a jerk. I think I did a pretty good job of getting his personality right, lol.
Kanta: review...otherwise she'll cry...and that's annoying (glares at Ramen)
Ramen: (sticks tongue out) you're a mean muse! ...but you got a point. REVIEW PLEASE!!!???
