Available Scream.

It was a Monday morning in Tokyo, not a normal day, maybe because of the heavy ran that seemed to pour down in an never stopping tune , or was it the tension that had grown in-between classmates over the year? There was a building full of kids, easily identified as a school. Each room had 27 pupils to occupy each desk, but this one class, Mrs. Azu's class only carried 26, leaving an empty desk open, but it was very easily over looked by the patent eye. Azu's class was decorated in bright colors, full of kids creations over the trimesters, but at the moment all looked sad, and gloomy because of the horrendous weather they have been having.

In the back row of the class sat an average kid with soft brown hair that stuck to his face, because of the rain he had traveled in just to get to the school, but if it was dry, it would have been described to be in volume that matched his oval shaped face, with a few strands that would stray out of the texture every so often. The eyes of the boy were a deep sea green, that easily reflected off the Fluorescent lights that hung off of the room's ceiling. His clothes always seemed to be a long sleeved baggy shirts, with comfortable fitting jeans, nothing ever special happened to him, or so people thought, after all he just went by the name of 'Kite.'

"Hm," Kite sighed, and shifted in his desk, class almost starting, but his mind wandering away, like always.

The class bell had rung, as more kids scurried into the room, and took their places at the desks, they seemed to be chattering about some dance coming up, or was it a party?

Mrs. Azu tapped her ruler on her desk, and made a few coughing gestures to settle them down. "Today's lesson will be on Ayana Atako, first president of Japan." (Ah.. I know that's not right, but who cares.)

Another bell rang, this time getting Kite's full attention, that bell meant everyone had to be in the class room, otherwise they would have gotten a 'Tardy'. His eyes glanced over to an empty desk next to him, as if he noticed it for the first time, even though it had always been there. Kite sighed and looked away to the teacher. Then again, he spaced out.

The door of the class room opened again, of the 9th grade class room, someone was late, everyone took notice of who it was, but Kite had not, always the one to be day dreaming during special events. At the doorway stood a small boy with soft blonde hair, and bright deep sapphire eyes, although it was unnoticed right away, because they had been down-cast to the solid ground. His clothes were slightly bigger than he was so his shirt hung down to his knees, and a belt held up those pants, to measure out his frail width. If you took a peek closer you could see that he had a distant look upon his face.

"S-sensei," The boy spoke up, his voice sounded quiet and distant, along with confusion, very easily matched up with his figure.

Mrs. Azu turned around and smiled warmly, "Ah. You must be Eien, the new student, welcome. I'm Mrs. Azu." The teachers gentle eyes scanned the room of the class room, as they landed to the spot of the empty desk next to Kite.

"You can take a seat next to, Kite." She said pointing her finger to where she was looking.

Eien nodded his head, as his feet moved to the empty desk, and took a seat, after awhile his eyes glanced to Kite, who was spaced out.

Kite never knew Eien was there.

Eien found himself staring at the boy, taking in Kite's eyes, the soft green that sparkled off the lights, Eien couldn't pull his stare away, no matter how hard he tried.

After awhile Kite's books slid off his desk, and landed on the ground with a soft 'thud' noise. Making Eien's stare break, as his face was now turning to a crimson color, blushing.

Eien kneeled down and picked up Kite's books and held them out to him.

The noise did make Kite snap out of the day dream, his attention now on Eien, who was obviously holding onto his books.

"Um.. um Kite-sama, is it? Y-your books?" Eien's voice was nervous, as Kite's stare was on him.

Kite's eyes looked into Eien's eyes, almost losing track of himself again, because of the sapphire gaze, very new compared to his original green eyes.

"Sama?" Kite laughed softly, "Um. Just Kite, please." He said as he reached his hands out to get his books, that hand brushing against Eien's hand, which Eien's face turned even more crimson.

Kite blushed too, as Eien's grip was now gone from the books and now in his lap.

Kite shook his head and placed his books on his desk, then it finally hit him, someone talked to him, AND someone was new in the school.

"Wait."

"Hm?" Eien turned his attention back to Kite.

"What's your name, I didn't get it."

"Eien."

Kite grinned, maybe he could finally get a friend, "Hey, Eien want to hang out some time? To get acquainted that is."

Eien's eyes widen, -I'm already making friends? T-this never happened to me before.- "Uh.. I.. I would be very delighted, Kite."

Kite nodded his head and grinned more, "Very well then, um how about tomorrow?"

"Fine." Eien responded, "I'll see what I can do."

By then the bell had rung, class was over.

Kite stood, and so did Eien, they were standing rather close to each other, as another blush appreared on bother of their faces.

"Do you play 'The World'?" Kite asked.

"I..I do."

"Can I have your member address?"

"Sure." Eien smiled slightly and gave Kite his member address on a small piece of notebook paper.

Kite nodded in respect, and left Eien, now in separate class rooms. The hours passed, and school was now over.

This time Kite ran home, he was so excited to make a new friend, maybe Eien would be on when he got home.

Kite slipped into his home as his mother called, "How was your day?"

"Fine!" Kite responded quickly and ran into his room, closing his door, and throwing himself into the chair in front of his PC. Clutching Eien's member address in his left hand, as his right hand moved to the goggles to the game, and slipped it on over his head, music filling his ears, and a screen popped up, in scripted 'The World.' He immediately clicked the LOG IN button.

Something odd happen, as a small error note appeared, 'Access denied.'

Meaning the game was unavailable. "Damn!" Kite growled and moved away from the PC, slipping the goggles off along the way.

"I should have got his number instead." He sneered at himself, and sat down on his bed in a mad fight. "For the first time I cant wait for tomorrow."
