For 2 people who love each other, fortune's in the air
Side by side, you and me; cherries

"You are such an arrogant, self-centered, egotistical," A girl said, yelling at a boy with blonde hair, in rage and anger, fire flaring up in her eyes.

And standing there, the blonde stared at her, saying plainly. "Go on."

"Sweet and thoughtful idiot!" He received a whack on the head. "I hate you."

The blonde pouted at her, "I love you too honey, and no matter what, I'm your arrogant, self-centered, egotistical, sweet and thoughtful idiot." People were staring, but hey, that was the way these two expressed their love. She just happened to hate his guts at the exact same date two years ago.

---look at this cool flashback moment---

A brunette sat, slumped on a chair while all around her the senior class chattered on, clearly bored until the teacher said, "Class, we have a new student today!" Stepping into the classroom was a blonde boy; he smiled and waved at everyone.

"Take the empty seat next to Olette, Olette raise your hand." He's cute, and he's going to sit next to me! That was the thought running through her mind at the moment, her hand shot up into the air.

He came and sat down beside her, and when the teacher said they could start working on their writing assignments, and Olette would be Roxas's sheepdog for the rest of the day, seeing she had every since class with him.

It was a coincidence, a miracle almost, but technically speaking, it was hell.

"Where did you say you were from again?" The brunette was holding onto her books at the blonde fumbled at his locker combination. " Traverse Town."

Roxas then turned to look at her. "Who in the world cut your hair? Or did you cut it yourself?" He said it in a way that said, 'I'm looking at a person with two heads!'

"What's wrong with my hair? Have you ever looked in a mirror? Ever tried a brush?" She spat, slamming her locker, which just happened to be right next to his.

They continued to argue all through the day. "Aww, they're in love!" Someone said, while they bickered at lunch, Olette threw her lunch tray into that poor person's face.

I think that person's front teeth were never the same since.

Opening my notebook, I realized 2 years have already passed
It makes me shy,

"I HATE YOU ROXAS!" A voice screeched, ringing through the hallways, classrooms, and auditorium. "I love you too Ollie!" Roxas yelled back, enjoying the horrified expression on her face. That was how the tradition started in the first place.

By complete accident.

And that was when it hit her, maybe she could pretend to fall in love with him, it would definitely freak him out! The rest of the day Olette was cheery even with Roxas bugging her.

The next day the brunette was completely avoiding Roxas, silent even if he tried to bug her in homeroom, quickly grabbing her books and walking away when she was at her locker. It made his little pea sized brain strain and be very confused.

"Olette, hey." Roxas prodded at her back with a pencil in science class, she looked up from her book, turned around, and quickly turned back, ignoring him again.

That moment, that moment was when he started to question if he really did hate her as much as he thought he did, because he was actually concerned about her.

At the exact same moment, the brunette girl questioned herself, because she was really blushing.

To remember that he was so rude to me
And I was rude back

So Olette avoided him for the rest of the week, Roxas's tiny brain tried to understand what was going on, and then, Hayner told him flatly, "She likes you." He thinks his head almost exploded as soon as those three words were spoken.

"No she doesn't, she can't be!" He burst out, standing up, all eyes were on him. He felt his cheeks turn bright red, and fell back on the floor, collapsed there.

I think his brain just stopped working because of the pressure; after all, his brain is very, very small.

One of the staring people was Olette, her mouth slightly ajar in complete awe.

It took her friends two minutes to wake her up from the trance, shaking her and slapping her arm. She felt none of that, still staring at poor Roxas sprawled on the floor because his brain wouldn't work.

Her head came in contact with the hard table, moaning, "This isn't happening."

In short, they both were very weird people.

We lead such a full life, It was a sweet, sweet thing
Crying day and night, traveling by bicycle together, etc. I can't express it all in writing

Everything was because of that faithful day, everything started that day. The brunette stood in the middle of the street, completely drenched because it had rained out of nowhere.

"Hey." He had appeared out of nowhere; putting her in the safety under the umbrella, out of the rain. "Hey." She said, noticing he was holding the umbrella away from himself, almost being in the rain himself.

Frowning, Olette asked, "What are you doing?" There was a long pause, as he mumbled, "You're not going to slap me?" Looking down, she grabbed the hem of his shirt. "No." And tugged on it gently.

He was pulled a bit closer to her, their shoulders brushing. "I should be thanking you." The brunette's voice was quiet, Roxas started laughing. "You look funny."

"Do not!" Olette's face flushed, grabbed the umbrella from his hand, and shoved him gently. He took a few small steps back, fell down and splashed in a puddle.

Without warning, the blonde grabbed her hand, the one that was not holding the umbrella, and gave it a hard yank. It sent the brunette tumbling down, onto the wet ground, and onto him.

There was a flurry of motion, as Olette let go of the umbrella to break her fall, to realize the hand Roxas was pulling on was in a firm grip, and her head was pressing against his chest.

They stayed that way for a while, in the rain, speechless. "You, you pervert!" Olette yelled, stood up and started running.

Picking up the forgotten umbrella, he stood up, watching her disappear in the rain.

A few blocks away, she was out of breath; heat came to her cheeks as she thought about his hand holding onto hers. Only couples did things like hold hands.

"You held my hand, what were you thinking Roxas?"

Since there was too much happening!!
My smile blooms; I want us to be together

"Good luck on the solo, Olette! We're rooting for you." Everyone came to wish her luck, they were having the annual Christmas concert in school, and she happened to be singing solo.

Smiling, the green-eyed girl thanked everyone. "You're up in five minutes Olette!" The teacher said, running around to make sure everything was perfect. "Roxas, help Olette out okay?" The teacher was running around now.

Rising up from the chair he was sitting on, and finishing talking to two other performers, he made his way to Olette. "Good luck." His eyes were on his feet. "Th-thanks."

Roxas's hand hovered over her hair a bit and tucked a few strands under her ear. The whole freaking world seemed to freeze as he planted one on her cheek.

"Good luck." He said again, smiling at her reaction. The brunette was standing there with a blank expression on her face. "Olette, get ready!" She quickly turned to face the mike, forcing a smile on her face that wanted to stay shocked and blank. The principal droned on as he introduced her.

She felt car-sick dizzy.

All I can say is that the opening of the Christmas concert didn't go well, because their main person fainted on the microphone.

If we have faith in the future, surely we'll see a sign
For 2 people who love each other, fortune's in the air
Side by side, you and me; cherries

There was loud laughing everywhere, Olette was clearly mad. "And," There was a loud gasp for air between laughs, "He kissed her! To think he hates her guts out! I think our Olette is growing up!" A red haired girl chortled in amusement. "Shut up Kairi." The brunette growled darkly,

Following that was cooing and fawning over Olette, asking if they could go to her wedding with Roxas. "Did I hear my name?"

Crap.

The blonde boy's appearance out of nowhere just made everything so much worse then it already was. "When are you two getting married?" Selphie Tilmitt gasped, anxious. Oh Selphie, Selphie, Selphie, you never change.

Olette grew stiff as Roxas dared put an arm around her. "Yup, soon, I hope." Turning around, Olette shoved him hard. "I hate you, Roxas!" Rubbing the back of his head, he replied, "I love you!"

Her face grew dark, and a path cleared for her when she walked away.

"What's her problem?" Selphie blurted, all eyes were on her as Roxas twitched, stood up, and ran after her, to torment her, for the sixty-fifth time this day.

I felt so loved
So, of course I gave you my best love
No wonder it was a good feeling! Working together, and playing punishment games
Unexpectedly, since then our devotion's grown

"I win! I win!" Olette said cheerfully, and slapped the back of Roxas's hand, which was glowing red. "I know you win again, sheesh!" He snapped at her sharply, she just smiled innocently.

And then she just slapped the back of his hand again. "Can't you slap lighter?" There was a pout to his lips, "No! You deserve it, humiliating me like that."

"I'm sorry." The words passed through his lips, causing her to smile. "It's okay!" Olette's voice was cheerful, and slapped him yet another time.

Maybe if he never insulted her that first day of school, maybe if she hadn't argued back, they wouldn't be what they were today.

There was a smug grin on his face, "I win! HAHA! I WIN! In your face Olette!" He said at the top of his lungs, reaching out to slap her, yet the brunette bolted away. "You'll never catch me!" They were laughing, as her pace slowed down.

He collided with her, lying on top of her, still smiling that smug grin, "I win." This time, she lay there, smiling as well. She then reached up behind him, her hands on his back, pulling his face closer, and kissed him gently. "No, I do. I always win." Olette whispered as soon as she parted.

There was a smile of victory on her face, taking in the shocked look he had. "Do that again." Roxas almost dared her, but she only poked him. "Nah." They both sat up.

"You have to catch me first." Before the blonde could react, she was gone.

The past is deeper than we think
But if even one part was missing, then
It's not enough, not enough! Not enough!! The bond between us

There was dread in the air; she didn't know what to think about it. Everything was, gloomy. The sky was gray, heavy with rain, "What's wrong today?" She hummed to herself as she walked down the hall.

Everyone looked so sad, their faces were gloomy, and it wasn't until Selphie jumped on her did she find out what happened. "Why are you still so happy? Haven't you heard about what happened?"

And Selphie told her, her mind went blank. "Oh god, oh god, no. They're okay, are they? Please tell me their okay!" Unknown to her, she was shaking Selphie with such force the girl was getting dizzy.

"Roxas…" It was the softest of whispers; no one could hear her say his name. For once, she didn't hate him. "One of them, one of them is dead. We're allowed to see them later today." Selphie was quiet, Selphie was never quiet.

Her whole entire world seemed to crumble down onto her. One of them is dead.

-x-

Their whole class was going to the hospital, walking there; everyone was wearing white, like the pale walls where they sat in the room waiting, waiting as the time ticked by.

"You may go in and see them now. Except for one, we are waiting for his family to come pick-up his body." The nurse said, her heart was beating quickly, it was a boy, and it was a him. It couldn't be Roxas; Roxas had all the luck in the world.

It couldn't be him. It just couldn't. She had just started to enjoy his company, too. No, it wasn't him, no, it wasn't him.

"That poor boy, so young. Blonde hair, blue eyes still wide open. Sad he had to go so early. Whoever knows him must be heartbroken." A nurse said to another nurse as the passed by Olette, "No, no! It can't be…" Her murmurs were soft.

"It can't be Roxas."

"Hey." It was a familiar voice, her head turned to face the same arrogant boy that she so hated, and so unfortunately, loved with all her heart. "You're worried about me?" He looked fine except for a few scratches here and there.

The next this the blonde boy knew, she had her arms around him, hugging him. "Thank god… Don't scare me like that." He staggered back as she pressed her full weight onto him, still hugging him.

And the reaction was… Roxas put his own arms around her too. "Ah, you do know you're hugging me, right?" He said, smiling down at her.

"I know. And you're hugging me back." There was a small smirk on her face. "Why aren't you letting go then?" He asked her, curious. "Because you're really warm…"

This time, it was not unplanned, it was light and magical. "I love you Roxas."

"I hate you too Ollie." And they started laughing.

---end of the super long cool flashback---

It was today two years ago that they first met. They still acted like they hated each other, but deep down, you can tell they love each other very much. No matter what, in the end, they were two cherries connected by a V single stem, and nothing could separate them from each other, even if they tried.

We will be 2 people who love each other all the time
We will be 2 people who love each other all the time
