Chapter 4:
"Hey, where the hell have you guys been?" Pence interrogated them.
"Seifer." Riku only had to say one word to answer all their questions. Everyone had the "oooh" expression on their faces, except for Naminé and Kairi.
"Why does he have to be so mean all the time." Asked Kairi while walking up to Sora. Naminé chose to target Roxas. They both checked to see if any of them had any bruises or marks, but thankfully found none.
"You two know that getting into fights on your first day is a bad way to start a reputation." Kairi crossed her arms and had a big frown on her face, as if they were to blame for it all.
"Hey, that guy was the one who started it. Sora here just got my back." Roxas managed to get a save the day from the frowny Kairi.
Kairi stood with the same expression before releasing a hard sigh. In her heart, she was very glad to see that no one got hurt. She hated violence, but she understood that self-defence was better than starting the whole thing.
"Did you guys at least get a good slug in?" Hayner was curious. It was obvious he had a grudge against Seifer.
"Hell yeah, Sora kicked him so hard in the face he ended up mopping the floor." Riku said before sitting down. Mysteriously there had already been a tray of food waiting for him at the table.
"It's nothing me and Roxas aren't use to. We use to get into a lot of fights in our previous school. The guys didn't like the way all the girls were day dreaming about us and decided to beat us up for it."
"Oh my gosh, that's so cruel!" Kairi exclaimed. She was outraged to hear that they would be hurt for no reason. Naminé stood beside Roxas, wanting so hard to give him a hug or grip onto his arm. Both their hearts were aching at the story.
"Its fine, Sora and I would never face them alone. Besides, we aren't hopeless when it comes to fighting. But we do prefer to avoid it." Roxas explained.
"So, where are you two originally from?" Riku didn't want to hang on the incident all day, so he changed the subject. Sora and Roxas sat next to each other at the table, feeling their legs getting irritated.
"We use to live in Twilight town and go to the head high school. We only got here yesterday. We didn't know this place at all, so we ended up being late trying to find the school." Sora told them.
"Yeah but we were actually late thanks to you who refused to get out of bed again." Roxas nudged his brother. Naminé smiled; she could relate to having a sibling who refuses to get up. Everyone around the table laughed at Roxas's reply.
"So why did you guys move here? Do your family have business here or something?" Kairi asks, trying to feed her curiosity. When Sora and Roxas heard the question, they stopped in their tracks and looked at each other before reconnecting eye contact with everyone else.
"Actually, the bullying had a lot to do with it. So, we came here. So far, we are really enjoying it here, except for the boring classes, but that's everywhere." Sora held his head in his hand while it was resting on the edge of the table.
"What are you guys doing later this evening? Pence and I are planning on hitting the blitz ball field after school with some other buddies. Want to join?" Hayner finally got a little use to the newcomers and thought it would be a great way to get to know them a bit better.
"We would really like that. But…" Roxas gave it over to Sora to finish.
"The principle asked us to go see him after school to go over the transfer papers. No dough we are going to be stuck there for an hour or so." It was clear that Sora wasn't looking forward to it.
"So, we won't be seeing you when we go home either?" Naminé was a bit sad to hear it. She wanted to say goodbye to Roxas before heading home.
"Unfortunately, not. But I'm sure we will get to see each other off next week." Roxas secretly felt the same way about wanting to see Naminé off one more time before the day ended.
"See you guys next week. We'll make plans to get together next weekend." Hayner said his goodbyes.
"We should get together at the beach. I haven't been in those waters in what feels like forever." Olette suggested. Riku nodded in agreement. He hasn't been to the beach all summer and missed the feel of the waves against his skin.
"That's a great idea! Riku can bring Xion along." Kairi teased. She knew being away from his girlfriend for so long would definitely cause some kind of reaction.
"I'll be sure to invite her, wonder why she wasn't at school today." Riku wondered.
"Naminé and I will ask Sora and Roxas if they want to join us when we see them again." Kairi was nice enough to volunteer. Naminé didn't have a problem with it at all. She really wouldn't mind seeing her blond-haired friend again.
"Anyways, have a great weekend. We'll text you with the details later." Kairi implied. Riku said his goodbyes as well and headed home. Naminé and Kairi walked side-by-side on their way home and Hayner walked Olette home, too.
While walking back, Kairi's thoughts kept circling around what had happened throughout her day. She remembers starting off a little down, but as soon as Sora and his brother entered the classroom, those depressed feeling started to fade away. Same as Naminé, she wouldn't mind seeing his goofy grin again soon.
"Oh, by the way, are we going to bake our new neighbours a little something to welcome them?" Kairi completely forgot about the mysterious new neighbours who had moved in next door. If Naminé hadn't reminded her, she wouldn't even have given it a thought.
"We should, it would be rude to show up without a house warming gift." Kairi smiled. She loved to cook and has had a lot of success with it. Everyone in her group of friends have tasted her dishes and none were dissatisfied.
Kairi and Naminé finally reached their house and noticed that the large truck in front of the neighbour's house was gone. Kairi had been sure it would have taken a while longer for them to move all their belongings. The two young ladies walked up to their front porch before Kairi tried to sneak a peek at what new folks looked like, but with no luck.
"Mom, we're home!" Naminé announced. There was no answer as well as no other sound roaming the house. Their footsteps suddenly felt louder than usual.
"We should change before we start with dinner. I don't like wearing this uniform while at home. It makes me feel…boring." Kairi stated. Naminé agreed completely. Both of them felt like the uniform was suffocating them. They both ran up to their separate rooms closing the door right behind them.
Kairi threw her bag onto the bed before kicking off her shoes and opening her closet doors. As she started unbuttoning her shirt, Sora's face appeared back into her mind. Without her noticing, her face became a light shade of red. She suddenly started unbuttoning her shirt even slower, imagining it was Sora doing it for her.
She could almost feel his hands grazing against her flesh while doing so. Her ears started to heat up at the idea of having her pink bra exposed for Sora to see. She would imagine his eyes burning her smooth skin and his breath steaming up her neck. Her shirt was finally off, but she didn't stop there. She simply slid her skirt right of, not wasting any time. She pictured Sora's hands all over her half naked body, using his finger tips to draw shapes on her skin.
"Kairi hurry up!" she snapped out of her day dream when the loud bang on her door was heard. Naminé seemed to have finished getting dressed while she was standing with nothing but her cute pink bra and matching panties, both with an adorable bow in the middle.
She stood there, occupied by her thoughts. Why was she acting this way about someone she had just met? No one else caused her to have this effect, so why now?
"Sora…" she whispered to herself. Her breaths became heavy just by the sound of his name. she couldn't deny that she wanted to see him again. She didn't know if she could hold out until next week.
"Man, that felt like forever!" Roxas whined
"I know what you mean. All that just to say that we shouldn't cause any trouble. Like we would go around causing fights." Said the spikey brunet.
"That whole thing with Seifer wasn't even our fault." The two were busy walking home, discussing the entire hour of listening to principle Xemnas.
"Since we are on the topic of school "affairs", why didn't we ask for anyone's numbers? Those people looked real nice." Roxas asked. Sora suddenly curved his lips in a wide smirk.
"You just want that Naminé girl's number, don't you?" Sora implied. Roxas fell in shock to his brother's words. His face instantly grew bright red. If it weren't for the golden light of the sun set, his blushing face would have been visible for everyone to see.
"Wh-what on earth makes you think that!" asked the aroused blond.
"Hey I didn't see it at first but during lunch I could see there was a little something. You never looked at a girl like that before." Sora teased. Roxas tried his hardest to hide his love driven expression.
"You're not innocent either. You couldn't take your eyes off of Kairi at all!" Roxas shot a perfect comeback, causing the brunet to get the same kind of blush that his brother was wearing.
"She-she is just pretty, doesn't mean I like her or anything…" Sora lied. During class, he couldn't stop thinking of how her hair sparkled in the sun rays, how her eyes reminded him of the beautiful night sky and about how her voice sang melodies in his ears.
"Don't worry, we will probably get to see them soon. I'm really starting to enjoy it here." Roxas stuck his hand into his pocket, clenching his fist. He wanted to get to know Naminé better and become close to her. Same could be said for Sora; he wanted to know Kairi and be able to see her almost every day.
Suddenly Sora and Roxas's eyes sprung open in realizing what they were thinking about. They had just met these girls, they barely knew them at all, so why would they be thinking so wildly about them. The last thing they wanted was to be remembered as perverts. They both stopped and shook the thought out of their heads only to open their eyes again and see they were standing in front of their home.
"Hey, the moving van is gone." Said Sora. He looked around for any sight of the truck but had no luck whatsoever.
"Well, we only had a couple of things. The house was already furnished years ago. It was only our stuff that had to be moved." Roxas reminded his brother.
Sora only shrugged his shoulders up to indicate a "whatever" and walked up to the house with his brother. He got out a key, with a micky mouse keychain hanging from it, and opened the door.
