Disclaimer: I wish i owned Kingdom Hearts so i could make all the fangirls cry, but i don't so i'm sorry.


I lay on my bed, my laptop placed on my chest as always. I had recently downloaded an emulator for playstation because Sora, being the hopeless klutz he is, had broken my old one; oh how I missed it, the hours I spent avoiding human contact,it was like losing an old friend. Who would have thought? Death by apple juice.

I was playing one of Soras stupid games; something about a kid fighting monsters with a key or something. Not that I was paying much attention, I kept thinking about school, something I try to avoid doing at all cost. It hadn't been as bad as I thought, I guess the people seem nice enough. The time at the bottom of my laptop read, 7:23 pm, I should most probably make something to eat; wouldn't want to risk Sora burning the house down for the sake of dinner.

I looked in the fridge, we had left cover spaghetti, but I wouldn't trust it. I gave up on looking for food in the fridge, and decided that if we wanted to eat we'd have to cook, and that ended so well last time. The pantry was full of Ramen noodles, which would be fine if I was Naruto but I'm not. At least it was something that I would be able to cook.

"Sora, how do you feel about eating noodles for the rest of the week!?" I shouted to Sora, who was residing somewhere up stairs; no doubt playing on his xBox or something.

"Do I have to cook?!" There is no way in hell I'm letting Sora touch anything with a burning flame.

"No!" I shouted "I'll do it" I value my life too much to let Sora cook.

Sora walked down the stairs and seated himself in the kitchen.

"Good, then that's fine, maybe we'll keep the freezer this time" we aren't meant to talk about the freezer episode.

~What hurts the most is being so close and having so much to say and watching you walk away~ my phone started flashing on the bench top. Sora gave me a look; the only person who calls me is mum, so this must be important. I unlocked my phone to answer

"Hello?"

"Roxas, how was your first day at school? I'm sorry I didn't see you off." My mother likes to skip introductions.

"It was alright, you know Sora, already made a bunch of friends" Sora was looking at me, I just shrugged and mouthed 'Mum".

"Oh, that's lovely sweetie." I cringed at the pet name "but why I'm really calling, is to say I'm going to be away a bit longer than I had expected" Should I have expected any less from my mother?

"That's fine mum, Sora and I are more than capable of caring for ourselves" Sora hated it when I spoke rudely to our mother, but it's not like she doesn't deserve it. She's been leaving Sora and I alone for weeks on end since we were thirteen; I don't even remember the last time she was with us on our birthday.

"Okay, I have to go Roxas, tell Sora I love him and I'll see you in a few weeks, love you." With that, the phone went dead.

"What did she say?" Sora asked. I just sighed; Sora never takes it good when Mum's away.

"She said she's going to be away for a few weeks, and not to let you touch anything in the kitchen" the last part was a lie, but seriously, there should be a law.

"A few weeks? We just moved in, Roxas, she hasn't even unpacked her things yet" Sora looked upset. I hated seeing him upset, he is always the happy one.

"I know, Sora, but it doesn't matter, you should be used to it by now." Sora frowned "So, I guess you're going to have to put up with my cooking," I smiled. Sora noticed and smiled back; a smile was good, you'd hate to see emo Sora.

"You better get back in the kitchen Roxas, I'm hungry!" He laughed, it was a bit forced, but it'll have to do for now.

I rolled my eyes "You're a little shit, you know?"

"Oh, but Roxas, you love me" He spoke dramatically placing a hand over his heart.

"Shut up," and with that I went back to cooking our meal of noodles.


~I'm a firestarter, a twisted firestarter~ Riku sighed as he picked up his phone, that was Axels ringtone; math homework would have to wait.

"What do you want?" he demanded; Axel always wants something no need to beat around the bush.

"It is true?" The redhead demanded.

"Is what true?" What is Axel talking about?

"You have a hot date with Spiky tomorrow" I assumed he is talking about me tutoring Sora.

"What the fuck Axel? Who told you this?"

"Demyx, Who else? Anyway, is it true?, Please tell me it's true" Fucking Demyx; he lives to spread gossip.

"I'm just helping him with math, Axel, why, you jealous?"I never thought Sora would be Axels type; Sora better not be Axels type.

"What? No, I assume you have his number. Now anyway cough it up i have a blond to harass".

"Why should I give it to you?" Riku challenged him.

"Because I don't think you want Sora to know you still sleep with a teddy bear" Riku could hear the grin the redhead was wearing through the phone.

"You wouldn't?" I wouldn't put anything past Axel.

"Haha, try me" Riku sighed

"Fine." Sorry Roxas. Riku hung up and texted the redhead Sora's number. This feels like a mistake.
Riku turned his phone off and continued his math work.


The sun was rising, my room was painted with a orange tint. I looked over to my clock, 6:25, why is it that you always wake up a few minutes before the alarm rings? In a few minutes, Sora would come bursting through my door demanding me to make him food, I should probably get up now.

Second day at Twilight Town high, oh, I am bubbling with excitement. I pulled off my sheets, but before I could even stand up, my phone beeps, signaling that I had gotten a text, which is odd because mother never texted us, she always calls, and that's only if it's important. I took the phone from the nightstand and looked at the text, "Good Morning Sunshine :)!" What the hell? It was from an unknown number, I didn't dwell on that too long though because Sora came bursting through my door.

"Roxas!" Sora looked at me "You're awake? That's a nice change" he saw that I was holding my phone. "Did mum call again? Did she change her mind, and she's coming back home?" He asked hopefully. So he was still upset about that?

"No, Sora, it was just a wrong number" he frowned "Come on I'll make us breakfast before school" with this he perked up a little.

"You're the best Roxy"I just nodded.

After Sora had devoured about sixteen pancakes, we left for school. The five minute trip there was uneventful. Sora had to put up with my music all the way there, because there was no way I was going to listen Disney's Greatest Soundtrack again, "Roxas, your music makes me want to break things." I sighed

"Put up with it Sora, we're here anyway" we pulled into the parking lot once more, Sora was quick to get out of the car.
We parted ways at the lockers, Sora had kept all his things for this morning in his bag so needn't go to his locker. I, on the other hand, needed to get all my things.

I sighed and opened the locker, I needed my things for... I checked my timetable. This morning I had math and double english. Oh joy. Once I had all my books, I closed my locker door. "Good morning sunshine!" Behind it was no other than Axel. "Holy shit Axel, why'd you have to sneak up on me like that?" He shrugged.

"Bored" I rolled my eyes, could he get anymore annoying, seriously, wait, what did he call me?

"It was you!" I accused the redhead, pointing a finger at him.

"What was me?" He was trying to look genuinely confused, but he was doing a poor job.

"You sent me that creepy text!" Now he was grinning

"I never did such thing," he moved to pull his books out of the locker, still smiling like an idiot.

"Liar" I placed my own books into my bag zipping it up.

"Maybe," he looked at me "See you at lunch" he walked past and I swear he winked at me. What?


~A few hours in the past, but not many~

Sora lay on his bed, he was holding a Playstation controller, and he needed to get past this level before he went to bed, there was no way he would let his character die again, this was for the greater good! His character died once again.

"I'll never get past this level" he sighed dramatically, the clock next to his bed read 2:45am "I didn't realize it was so late!" he said out loud. Deciding that it was time to go to sleep, he turned off the gaming console. ~I'm in heaven when you kiss me, show me how you miss me, take me with you back to wonderland Who would be calling at this hour?

"Hello, Sora speaking"

"Yo, Spikey it's me you know Axel?" What?

"Huh, um, hi how'd you get my number?" Why is he calling me?

"I made Riku give it to me, but that's not important" Oh that makes sense "Can I have Roxas' number?" he paused "Please"

"You want my brothers number? Why?" Should I give it to him? He seems nice enough.

"Because we're friends Sora" the redhead lied

"Oh, okay." Roxas making friends already, that's something new. "I'll text it to you"

"Thanks Sora, see you at school" The phone went dead, Sora sent the redhead the number and fell asleep.


Riku looks nothing like Leon, Leon has has brown hair for one, it's almost as long as Riku's though. He also wears a permanent straight face, and too much leather, I don't think he's smiled once since beginning the lesson, but I must admit, he is a good teacher, if Riku is half as good at math as his father, Sora might actually learn something, if he's not, you know, getting molested by Riku. I'm going to make sure Sora leaves his bedroom door open while Riku is tutoring him.

Math wasn't as bad as I had thought it would be. I understood most of what the Leon was talking about, as I've always been good at math, so it wasn't much to worry about.

Double english was tedious, Saix still looked as if he would maim anyone who'd dare talk in his class, he spent the whole two periods talking non stop. What was even worse, was that he expected us to take notes on everything he said.

The bell signaling lunch rang, and my head hurt. I made my way to the cafeteria, and I was surprised when I saw that Riku was the only one sitting at the table; the others must be running late. I took the seat across from Riku. Neither of us spoke for a long while, and I was beginning to think that maybe
Riku was mute. I decided that I would have to be the one to start the conversation.

"Um, hi Riku", my voice was so awkward.

"Hello" he didn't even bother looking at me. Rude.

"Um, where is everyone?" I was trying to make conversation, but I was also curious, as I didn't want to spend my lunch with Riku.

He looked up, eyes scanning the seats around us "Not here" he sounded kinda pissed, what did I do? I thought making conversation was a friendly thing to do?

"You know, you don't look anything like Leon" I spurted out, it made Riku look at me with a raised eyebrow.

"I'm adopted" oh that explains it.

"Oh oka.." My word were cut off my brother.

"Hey Riku!" Riku turned away from me to look at my brother. He smiled; Riku. Smiled. Smiled! at my brother.

"Hey Sora, finished your math homework?" He asked.

"Ha um, no, I thought you could help me with it later." I know Riku was hoping that was his answer.

"Sure, no problem" Sora sat down next to me, barely a minute later the rest of the group showed up, taking the remaing seats. Axel was nowhere to be seen; Probably in detention for setting the school hamster on fire or something.

"I'm here, what are your other two wishes?" I jumped, hitting my knees on the table in front of me. I turned to glare at Axel,he chuckled and sat in the seat next to me, "Second time in one day, Roxas. Miss me?"

"No." I continued to glare at Axel, I've known him for what, two days? And he is already trying to mess with me.

"Oh Roxas, you break my heart!" He said in a fake hurt tone. I rolled my eyes at him.

"You have a heart? Who would have ever guessed?" The person who spoke was Riku. Axel poked his tongue out at him. Great, these people were as mature as my brother.

The rest of the day passed too quick for my liking, because this meant I would have to give Riku a ride to my house; Riku the one who hates me for no reason, Riku the one who clearly wants to get into my poor oblivious brothers pants.

I was standing outside my car, waiting for Sora and Riku to get here, when Sora came strolling out of the school, Riku trailing just behind him. In the sunlight Riku's hair looked white, opposed to the silver colour it normally was. The pair walked up to the unlocked car.

Sora slid into the passengers seat, and Riku slid into the back. Once I was seated in the front, I started the car up. It was a bit awkward to have another
person besides Sora in the car with me driving but I would have to deal with it. I moved to turn on my iPod, hitting shuffle. The song "Summer Shudder" started playing through the speakers. I smiled, it was one of my favorite songs. I pulled out of the parking lot and started the drive home. In the back Riku chuckled.

I raised my eyebrow "What are you laughing about?" I asked, What did he find so amusing?

"Nothing, I just knew" What did he know?

"Knew what?" What's with people talking in half sentences today?

"I knew your music taste would be excruciating" I glared at him.

"Would you rather listen to Sora's music?" Please don't say yes, I've heard the lion king soundtrack too many times.

"Yes, actually." He looked extremely pleased with himself. Sora smiled brighter than the sun.

"You heard him Roxy, we're listening to my music!" I sighed as Sora plugged in his iPod, three more minutes.I looked in the mirror only to see Riku looking back at me. He mouthed "Roxy" and raised an eyebrow. I sighed and looked away. That's it, I'm changing my name and moving to Mexico.

I once again survived Sora's music, but almost died when he stared singing along to "I just can't wait to be king". We pulled into our driveway Riku and Sora got out of the car. I followed closely behind them. Sora threw his bag onto the couch and Riku did the same, then they both headed to Sora's room. I threw myself onto the couch. I had a massive headache, sometime I wonder how I put up with Sora.

"Sora!" I shouted to my brother upstairs.

"Yes Roxy!?" That name again, Riku's not going to let that go.

"Leave the door open!"

"Why!" Oh bless his poor innocent soul.

"Just do it!"

"Okay!" I could hear Sora asking Riku what he was laughing at, I sighed into a pillow, and before I knew it I was asleep.

I wasn't aware how long I was asleep, until there was a knock on the door. I took my phone out of my pocket, and it read 5:28. I've been asleep for just over two hours, I hope Riku hasn't molested my brother too much since then.

"Roxas! Can you get the door!?" oh right the door, I rolled off the couch, fully aware that I had pretty serious bed hair right about now. I opened the door. I had to look up to see the knockers face. It was none other than Axel.

"Hello Roxy" he said, glancing at my hair. "Did I miss something?" It took me a second to get what he was saying, and he laughed at the stupid face I made.

"Why are you here Axel? How do you know how to get to my house?"

"To see my favorite blonde of course" he paused and I glared at him "I'm also here to pick up Riku", oh that makes sense. I pointed upstairs

"Second room to the left." He nodded "And if the door is closed, I'd advise you to knock".

"Good advice he walked upstairs, I walked back to the couch and collapsed once again. Sora,Riku and Axel walked down the stairs, I closed my eyes. What do I have to do for a minute of peace in this house?

"Thanks for helping me Riku, I think I finally get it" He smiled at Riku and I had to withhold myself from making gagging noises.

"No problem, anytime Sora" he smiled, opening the door and stepping outside with Axel "I'll see you at school?" Sora nodded.

"Yeah, see you at school." Oh it it was like one of those 'you hang up first, no you hang up first' kind of things. I can't handle this anymore. I got off the couch once again, and walked over to the door

"I think this is the time where we close the door and you leave" Sora was glaring at the back of my head.

"What, no kiss goodbye Roxas?" Axel said, I shot him a glare and gave him the finger, closing the door.

I turned to look at Sora,"That was mean Roxas" he sounded really annoyed "Why do you hate Riku so much, he's just being nice" Sora was pouting now, there was no escape.

"Too nice" and with that I walked upstairs and collapsed into my bed, I swear to Jesus, if someone disturbs me once more I'm going to rip their eyes out.
