Summary:
Sora and Kairi are from Destiny Island. They went to Traverse High for continuing their education since being a remote and rural area, there was no high school in Destiny Island. In Traverse High, they met Cloud and Squall, both in their second year of high school, Riku, and Aerith, also starting their first year in Traverse High.
Kairi got acquainted with Yuffie, a wacky girl taking care of Dalmatians in a house. Sora and Riku became good pals, but were fighting over who get to date Kairi, while there were some indifferences between Cloud and Leon over their completely diverging personalities. But no worries! Yuffie was there to solve everything, or to mess things up...
Expect Riku&Kairi in the beginning, then Yuffie&Tidus, yaoi Riku&Sora and Leon&Cloud.
1. Apprehension of a New Beginning"Argh! This room is even smaller than my hole of a house!" Sora groaned wearily, aiming a book at a nearby cupboard, and tossed it right on target. It had been his very first time at a foreign town. In the past he was stuck in Destiny Island, never travelled since transport was not as convenient. Moreover, what was the need to travel when he was contented with being in a relaxing offshore island where life was simple and easy?
Right from the start, when he took his first step into Traverse Town, he already knew he hated the place. It was just too crowded and such, where many unknown, colossal and strange brick buildings were around. Coming from a rural area, the sudden change just simply astonished Sora. On the other hand, Kairi, was excited and readily adapting to the new environment.
"But Kairi... This place is just so not right! Where are the sunny beaches? Heck! There isn't even a sun!" Sora whined desperately, wanting to let Kairi understand his point. Being quite a cheerful and out-going person, Sora loved the sun, whose light was as bright as his personality.
"And.... And... The buildings are so intimidating! Why do they use bricks instead of straw and wood!? They are really really tough! You know how clumsy I can be, what if I hit my head against a wall!? Then I will be paralysed and..."
Before Sora could finish his tragic tale, Kairi simply chuckled to cut in and stated that they had to stay there for the next few years to complete their high schooling. So might as well get it over with and loved the differences of the new place instead of complaining. Sora's extraordinary imagination never failed to brighten up everyone's day.
"Moreover, the night is good for keeping my skin's radiant and white complexion. And night is just so romantic! Heheh..." Kairi added just to play along with Sora.
Knowing that Kairi was stating the facts, Sora merely shrugged and dragged his feet, following Kairi's lead to the boarding school...
And now, there he was, unpacking his stuff. After an hour or so, Sora managed to litter the room with his throw of stuff.
Well... At least I had unpacked, thought Sora.
Although Traverse Town had a constant night, the temperature was still quite warm. Being used to running half-naked at the beach in Destiny Island, the shirt just did not feel quite right. Additionally, it would not bother those city-freaks too much since he was in the privacy of his own room, or so as he thought.
Stripping off his shirt in one fluid movement, Sora hastily made a throw at the laundry basket beside the door without aiming, and bent down to take off his shoes. He needed his well-deserved rest after his "organized packing".
Ops... Bad timing. It might seen as if it was heaven's will that Sora would not get along well with his roommate, whom he was not aware of completely despite of obvious evidence in his room. It was just fated that Sora missed his target, and at the same moment, a boy just happened to drop by, who happened to be his roommate and the shirt just happened to suit the rest of the happenings and landed straight into the face of the stranger.
Upon the sound of the door opening, Sora looked up to find a weirdo with his precious shirt covering his head. Being not much of a courageous guy, Sora freaked out and stared in horror, thinking it was some sort of burglar using his shirt as a mask to cover his identity.
Tumbling onto the floor, Sora closed his eyes shut, not willing to witness his last bloody moment. "Please spare my life..." He pleaded
"Hey chill out, whoever you are..."
The voice sure did not seem to belong to a lunatic burglar on the loose. It was pleasant, with a bit of huskiness. Slowly, Sora opened his eyes to see who was the intruder. And similar to the voice, he did not look like a burglar too. Dressed in a simple muscle-tee and long track pants, the stranger had stunning slivery hair, which fell to his shoulders, and striking aquamarine eyes. Oppose to Sora's adorable look, brown spiky hair and soulful blue eyes, the guy had the suave looks. Even his pale skin can put Kairi's to shame!
The guy returned Sora's stare with a questioning look, and flooded him with questions.
"Who on earth are you? Why are you here? Why did you throw your shirt at me? And why on earth are your stuffs sprawled on the floor of MY room!?"
Gosh... He's the one who need to chill out now...
"Hey there... I'm Sora, from Destiny Island, resident of this dorm. I think you are in the wrong place..."
Riku just could not believe it! He was going to share a room with a goofy country boy who was extremely weird and childish! No! He did not even know he was sharing his room! Hey! That's why there were two beds in the fricking small room!
"Says who!? My things are right here!" The stranger pointed the luggage lying beside his bed, and continued unwillingly, "Sora... I think we are sharing this room..."
My name sounds good when he said it!
"Guess we are roommates then... Heheh..." Chuckled Sora cheekily, not sensing the reluctance of the guy's words. "Your name?"
"Riku...Hollow Bastion."
The window looked very appealing to Riku then... Nah... Jumping off it was even better! Although only two storey high, a broken leg would result in pain, which would neutralise and forget the misfortune of having a goof as a roommate, who apparently sucked at basketball...
But it will only be a temporary release! But some time away from that guy will be lovely! But... If I am to break a leg, I will be stuck in this dorm with him! Oh no!
So on went Riku's internal battle, whereas Sora just gave him a puzzled look, thinking that he was real weird. Zoning out in a middle of argument and in deep thought within seconds with a sweaty shirt clung in his hand sure was weird. Not to say he had not even step into the room. At least both had the same impressions of each other and they shared similarity of being weird... They were not so different after all...
Hmm... Wonder if Kairi is going to have a roommate too...AN: How was it? Hope I'm doing fine. Review and give comments. All comments are highly appreciated!
