To end Paranoia

Namine slept peacefully, the events of yesterday still fresh in her mind. She was expecting to be woken up by an alarm clock or something of that sort. What she wasn't expecting was to be woken up by Sora and Axel jumping on her bed.

"Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!" They sang, nearly giving her a heart attack.

Her eyes shot open and she let out a girlish scream silencing the once singing Axel and Sora.

She stared blankly at them for a few moments realizing what she had done, and then Axel coughed purposely letting out 'fruit-cake' in the middle of his cough.

"Was that the only way you could wake me up?!" She asked flustered.

"No we had an alarm clock but obviously you were too dead asleep to hear it, So this was the only way we could wake you up" Sora stated.

Namine glanced around the room, Riku and Roxas weren't there at the moment. She looked up at the clock. They still had an hour and a half before school started.

"Why did you guys wake me up so early? I mean we still have an hour and a half before school starts!" She wailed. As you could tell, Namine was not a morning person.

"We always wake up this early….So we could do homework" Axel said with a grin.

"Come to think of it…Crap I didn't write that essay for Mr. Lionharts class" Namine jumped up out of bed nearly knocking down Axel and Sora who were still on there.

"Whoa…Calm down, Looks like someone is sure excited about homework" Axel said giving a laugh. "Nerd" he added on.

Namine rolled her eyes and took out a notebook and labeled her name and the date on it. She began to write, write and write. Axel and Sora became busy in there own homework, mostly distracting each other with dumb stories they remembered.

The door barged open almost suddenly with Riku and Roxas standing at the doorway with a box of something.

"Finally we're starving here!" Sora said rushing to get the box out of there hands.

Namine was too busy writing her essay she glanced up real quick to see what was in the box and saw that it was a whole batch of jelly filled donuts. She scrunched up her nose since donuts was something she wasn't really a fan of and started to finish off writing her paper.

"Nick want some?" Roxas asked with his mouth full.

"Uhm…No thanks, I don't like donuts." She replied.

They all gasped in unison, as if she had committed a crime. "What?! You don't like donuts!" Sora shrieked.

"Dude, you're not a dude!" Axel said coolly.

Riku gave a laugh at this, and Roxas followed. With that said her ears perked up, she definitely did not want them knowing that she was in fact a girl. She had to prove it to them one way or another even if the first step was to….eat a donut.

She got up from her chair and snatched the donut out of Axel's hand. "Hey there's a whole box right there!" He whined.

She gulped and finally took a painful bite of the Donut. She tried to keep a straight face chewing it slowly and then finally swallowing it. "See, I could eat a donut, I am definitely a 'dude" She said with accomplishment.

The other boys just shrugged and finished there daily dose of sugar and decided to start getting ready.

"Demyx better have something planned that will make this paranoia finally come to an end" She thought to herself.

"Come on Kairi, Yuffie you have too!" Demyx pleaded.

"No way Demyx…No way…I think we could help her out in something else but not in that" Kairi huffed.

"She really wants them to stop being suspicious about her…" He started.

"Come on, don't you think Namine is making a big deal out of this, I mean I bet no one is even suspicious, last time I checked she definitely looked strangely like a guy" Kairi stated.

"Yeah well that's not what she told me!" Demyx exclaimed.

"Grr…no way am I wearing a dress, As you could probably tell I don't really weard dresses. Unless I really have to, like special occasions and that sort." Yuffie emphasized.

"Come on…Namine has been there for us when we needed her the most, couldn't ya'll just do this last thing for her?" Demyx said trying to convince them.

They gave a sigh of defeat. "Fine…." They both said in unison rolling there eyes.

"This is totally gay" Yuffie said. "Literally" Kairi added.

"We'll meet you at your house after school" After that they both walked away, waiting for the humiliating day that was going to be.

---

The morning had gone by pretty slowly for Namine. She sat in her desk in Mr. Lionhart's class, with her finished essay.

"Okay, Class, as I said yesterday I hope you have those essays that I told you to write" He reminded as he came in.

"Crap" Axel and Sora said in Unison. "Wait what were you guys doing this morning then?" Namine asked.

"Well…we attempted…that counts right?" Axel asked.

"Uh…No not really." Namine stated. "Unlike you twits I happen to have my paper" Roxas chimed in proudly.

He rummaged threw his messy backpack until he shut his backpack and plastered on a face of disappointment.

"Forgot it?" They all asked in Unison. He slowly nodded his head that was followed by some curse words he said under his breathe.

"What about you Riku?" Namine asked curiously. "I stopped caring a while back" He said coolly.

"Okay, well I'll be picking people to read there papers" Mr. Lionhart said.

Namine dreaded, she hated reading in front of the class. "Roxas?" He called out.

"I swear Mr. Lionhart I had written the paper, and it was 3 pages long actually it was great, neat no pizza stains at all!" Roxas started to explain.

"So where is this magnificent essay that you are describing?" He quirked his right eyebrow at him.

"Well…You see... I forgot it." Roxas finished. Mr. Lionhart nodded. "Likely Story" He muttered.

"Is there anyone who actually attempted and actually finished?" He asked exasperatedly.

There was silence for a brief moment, Namine hoping this moment would pass and she wouldn't have to read her paper.

"Oh, Nick over here does!" Axel Volunteered .She gave him a death glare. "You are so on my list" Namine growled at him.

"Nick, yes, Can you please read your paper then…At least someone followed directions" Mr. Lionhart sarcastically said.

She timidly got up from her chair facing the 30 different pair of eyes that followed her every move.

"Err…Revenge in my definition is when someone finally gets to get back at someone for doing something wrong to them, and when they finally get back at that person it feels so great like a rush of excitement, LIKE SOMEONE THAT HAS FINALLY ACCOPMLISHED A IMPOSSIBLE DEED LIKE A BREATHE THAT CAN FINALLY BE TAKEN. IF YOU'RE TAKING REVENGE ON A CERTAIN PERSON THEN YOU KNOW FOR A FACT HE OR SHE DESERVES IT BECAUSE WELL THEY DO!" Namine had got a sudden burst of energy as she read this paper that she started to freak the class out.

"Err…Is tampons okay?" Axel questioned Sora.

"Uhm…Thank-you Nick, I think that will be enough for today, thank you for actually writing your paper though you may take your seat" Mr. Lion hart interrupted her before she had started throwing desks around.

She felt everyone's eyes piercing into her even more and she had made eye contact with the blue eyes of Tidus he had a look of confusion, she sunk back into her seat with a tint of pink that was spreading all over her face.

"Do you always get that energized when you read essays?" Roxas asked. She felt her face burning up even more.

----

"I'll meet up with you guys later at the pizza place, I have to err…do something" She said and ran off to her dorm.

The guys just looked at each other with confused expressions but then shrugged it off and headed toward there favorite hang-out and pizza joint.

Dialing Demyx's number hastily she waited for him to pick up. "Hello?" He answered finally after what felt like an eternity to her. "Finally! Sheesh! What's going on Demyx what was this idea you were talking about?" She asked almost shouting into the phone.

"Listen Im already at the pizza place, all you need to do is get there, and everything will fall in place. Just know one thing Kairi and Yuffie are going to be your, what shall I say props for this evening" He said.

"Props? What the hell does that mean….Oh no, this better not be what I am thinking it is" Namine said her stomach churning with anxiety.

"Just get there and you'll see what's up…oh and try to the best acting ever. Like Oscar award acting" Demyx said and then hung up.

"Wait…what the heck does that mean?!" She screamed once again in the empty phone line.

---

"You know, your new roommate Nick he's a pretty weird guy" Axel said chomping into a slice of pizza.

"Yeah, he is…" Roxas agreed.

"I know, seriously I pretty much think he's gay, I just hope that if he is gay he doesn't get a crush on any one of us…or that would be seriously weird-er" Sora said slurping some of his soda.

"Well…What if he isn't a guy at all?" Riku asked. They almost spit out there food and drinks.

"What?, okay I know he has peculiar ways but I know for sure he is a guy…maybe a gay one but he's still a guy" Roxas said.

"Plus Riku how do you know that for sure?" Axel asked.

Before Riku could say something they heard Nick call out to them. They all gave Riku a questioning look.

Namine looked for her cue and saw Demyx at one of the near by tables with sunglasses on and taking them off and giving her a quick wink and putting them back followed by the menu he was looking at back in front of his face.

"Nickkk!" A girl sang out. Namine looked around to spot her really gorgeous friend Kairi in clothes that she thought she'd never find Kairi wearing. A short mini skirt with a halter top and heels.

She went up to Namine and embraced her in a hug. "Kairi, what is this" Namine whispered. "Just play along…make sure the guys are looking" Kairi whispered back.

"Nick, sweetie, I haven't seen you in so long, why haven't you called me?!" Kairi pouted. Namine looked at the guys table and saw them looking at them with wide eyes.

Namine cleared her throat. "Err...Uh…You know baby, I've just been busy" She acted out.

"Well promise me that you will call me soon, you're the only one that's been on my mind these days" Kairi said trying to sound seductive.

"Err…Of course" Namine said. Kairi gave her another hug and then strutted off making a slight pose when she walked past the wide-eyed boys. As if the even that had just happened wasn't surprising enough, another girl called out to Namine. This time, It wasn't Kairi, but Yuffie.

Namine had to contain her laughter because this was the first time she had seen Yuffie even attempt at being Girly. Her hair that was usually tied up in a pony-tail was let down loose, and she was wearing a strapless black dress that stopped just above her knees. She was wearing sandals and walked past the boys, there eyes not only being wide but there jaws dropping.

"Another one?!" They all said in Unison.

"Nick, Baby, what is this, you haven't been calling me or anything, where have you been?!" Yuffie acted.

Namine bit her tongue really hard so she didn't start to laugh; she figured it had probably started to bleed. "You know, Babe, Just been busy and all, that's it…We should do something later though" She said, and Yuffie embraced her in a hug and whispered in her ear

"You owe me big time…punk, oh yeah and to make this effect more real Demyx told me to tell you to grab my butt. I can't believe I just said that" Yuffie Dreaded.

Yuffie started to walk away and Namine Reluctantly did the unthinkable. She grabbed her butt. Yuffie walked away, a little horrified and violated but knew that it was all worth helping out a friend and Namine would have probably done the same if she was in that situation.

"No she wouldn't have…" Yuffie mumbled.

"2 girls? And they were really hot! I guess our theory of him being gay is way out, and the girl thing Riku…Come on!" Sora concluded.

"Yeah, Tampons got the skills then…hmm...Maybe he could help our poor Romeo out then" Axel said referring to Roxas.

He became a bit red and then murmured a quick shut up to him a moment before Namine had joined them.

"What's up guys?" She said with a smirk of accomplishment as she sat down.

"Wow…You're a true ladies, man what's your secret?" Axel asked adding a laugh.

"Er…You know how it is with the girls…" Namine didn't really know what to say.

"Well why you don't help our Poor Heart-broken Roxas over here" Sora said.

Namine turned to Roxas a bit confused. "Shut up you guys…Damn" He said a bit aggravated.

"What do they mean by that?" Namine was very curious. "Nothing…" Roxas tried to brush it off.

They all stared him down until he finally confessed. "Okay, There's this girl, I guess you don't know her Nick, but…I've liked her for a real long time…I just have trouble talking with her you know, I don't know why. I get all nervous"

Namine accidentally spit out her drink on Axel who was sitting across from her. "Oh my gosh, I am so sorry!" She apologized but knew he deserved it for what he did earlier.

"EW…GROSS, UGH…What the hell Nick!" He snapped.

Namine, couldn't believe her ears, the unafraid, ripped up, Roxas had trouble talking with a girl. "I can't believe that, come on have you ever even just tried having a conversation with her?" Namine asked.

"Yeah he did but there conversation ended up with Roxas getting slapped and an enchilada dumped into his hair" Riku joined in.

"What…why what did you say?" Namine asked intent on not laughing. "Nothing, She just misunderstood me, I said Nice Rack, but I was talking about the rack that was behind her because it had some cool designs on it and she thought I was talking about her" Roxas said grimly.

Namine burst out into a fit of laughter. "I…am …..So…Sorry…but" That was all they could make out. Sora and Axel had joined in her weird laughter and Riku also.

"Damn…You guys!" Roxas was a bit upset and left irritated.

Namine stopped laughing and looked at them seriously. "Wow…So…He really likes this girl?"

They all nodded there head, they were silent for a moment.

"So…What's her name anyways" Namine asked breaking the ice. "Olette" Sora said.

"Hm…Olette" She pronounced.

Her phone started vibrating making her jump a little happy that the boys had engaged themselves in there own conversations and didn't see her do that. There were 3 txt messages.

Kairi- You owe me, or us big time Nami!

Yuffie- I am never doing that again, you OWE ME A HUGE FAVOR I was violated out there

Demyx- I hope your happy now, your paranoia better be gone now. Kairi and Yuffie almost killed me when I told them the plan. You owe us or me big time. Smoothies will be nice.

She gave a small laugh.

Isn't it wonderful to have good no great friends?

Okay so what did you think...I hope it wasn't disappointing. anywayssss
