"What exactly are you talking about, Sora?" Vanitas demanded with a sneer, because he knew that whatever it was the brunet had come up with, it would be laughable as hell.

"Well, it's easy, really. We could all give them tips on how to behave on a date, or what kind of presents you can give the other, where to hang out to make both parties feel at ease… Things like that," Sora explained.

"Yeah, we could prevent such tragedies from happening," Ven chimed in, as though he'd finally seen the light.

This earned him a happy nod from his older brother.

"That's not what I meant at all!" the ebony-haired teen protested, louder this time.

The last thing he wanted to do was to help people he didn't even know. He could think of a dozen better ways to waste his time.

Ven ignored Vanitas's cries, too, as he said, "Besides, I love helping people out."

"Yeah, and look what happens to them," the raven-haired teen muttered under his breath.

"I'm not sure if that's a good idea, though. How should we do that? We're only kids. As if anyone's going to take us serious."

Ven shook his head. "Don't be such a party pooper, Roxas. I'm sure they'll take us serious enough when we let it publish in the school magazine, which everyone reads, by the way. Sora, you know Selphie well enough, right?"

The youngest brother nodded, wondering what Ven would say next.

"She works for the school paper. Ask what she thinks of it."

"Oh, she'll dig it for sure. She's always been the romantic type," Sora replied, his trademark grin widening.

Ven nodded. "Good! That's the spirit."

"What about me? Don't I have a say in this?" Vanitas growled, his frown growing.

Unfortunately for him, Ven and Sora had made up their mind already, for they simultaneously cried, "Nope!"

"…I hope you know I hate you all!"


"And?" Roxas asked, as soon as Sora had reached the bus station where his other three brothers were waiting impatiently for him.

It was one of their habits to go home together, whenever they got out of school at the same time. Even Vanitas stuck to that unwritten rule (much to everyone's surprise, since he liked to act like the heartless one out of all of them). Unfortunately, that only happened twice a week, seeing that the four of them had different schedules. They couldn't always wait for one another, because that would mean that sometimes, they had to wait for two hours.

"And what?" Sora asked, dumbfounded.

Vanitas let out a long-suffered sigh and took this moment to smack the back of his twin's head.

"Ow! What was that for?"

"What did Selphie say, you idiot?"

"Oh, we already arranged everything and she said yes. She's going to publish it soon," Sora replied, rubbing the back of his head. "Now, before any of you-" he looked at Vanitas when he said that, "Start complaining, let me tell you this: deal with it."

At that moment, Sora's mobile phone rang. He saw that it was his best friend Riku, before picking up.

"Guess what happened?" the silver-haired teen immediately said, giving Sora no time to greet him.

"No one understands the darkness and pain of your soul?" Sora said jokingly.

"Very funny, but no. I got my drivers license."

Click!

The other side of the line went dead when Sora hung up on the silver-haired boy. "Hello? …Did he just hang up on me?" Riku wondered, indignantly.

"If he asks why I hung up on him, then tell him I forgot how to use the phone," Sora told his siblings, who gave him a weird look. "Gah, I really hate it how he always gets everything first. It's not fair!"

The raven-haired teen snickered. "Good for you. Another proof why I think you're a total failure."

"Well, if it's of any console, I think you'll be the first one with a girlfriend," Ven spoke, trying to calm him down.

"You really think so?" Sora asked, hopefully.

"Of course. Kairi thinks you're aderpable."

"Uh… what's-" Sora started, before he got interrupted by his twin.

"She thinks you're so stupid that it's kind of… adorable. She surely must've lost her mind… when I pushed her against the lockers this morning, hah!"

"What?! Vanitas!"

At that moment, the bus arrived, making it impossible for Sora to ask further questions (or attack his brother even if he knew he would lose).


"Yo, Roxas. Why are you so quiet?" Ven asked, while opening the front door with his key.

"Huh?" the spiky-haired boy looked as though he'd just woken up from a trance. "It's nothing, really. Just… who was that girl?"

"What girl?" the three brothers cried in unison.

"In the bus, the one with the white summer dress and slightly pale face. She had the bluest eyes I've ever seen and long blonde hair…" Roxas replied.

"Are you seeing ghosts again? 'Cause if that's the case, you're not gonna sleep in my room anymore," Vanitas warned, walking over to the living room.

"She was no ghost! I saw her. She was as real as Vanitas's heart," Roxas cried out, irritably.

"…You do realize that that still isn't proving anything, do you?" Ven noted.

This actually managed to make Ven's twin brother smile. "Right, I forgot this is Vani we're talking about."

"…What the actual-" Vanitas caught himself right in time. "What are you doing here?"

The other three followed their oldest brother to the room, curious as to who he was talking to. They all stood still with their mouths agape when they saw the intruder sitting on the couch and watching TV.

It was the eighteen year old Axel, who was almost two years their senior and one of Roxas's best friends (even though some people thought he might feel a little more for the silent blonde teenager).

The question was, what did he want from the poor guy this time?
