Departure to a New Place
Sora woke up at five in the morning. Barely able to get dressed. He had to put his shoes on twice as he discovered they were on the wrong feet. He hoped Riku was making more progress than him. They had to get up extra early to catch a boat that would take them to the airport. Sora already had his stuff packed in the car, so all he had to do was get a ride from his mom.
The car ride was uneventful. Sora and Riku somehow made their way on the plane. "Ey, Riiikuu." "Go back to sleep. It's too early." Sora smiled dreary eyed at Riku. "Buh I'm too excited tah sweep." Riku just turned around in his seat to face the window. "If you don't sleep now, you wont be able to explore once we get there." "Eh..."
xXx
Sora felt someone lightly shake his shoulder. "Sora? Sora, wake up you lazy bum." "Buh I dun wanna go to school..." Riku sighed as he placed one of Sora's arms around his neck. "Come on Sora, we have to catch our ride." Riku had to drag Sora to the waiting area of the airport. Checking his paper once more just to make sure. Yes, it's the right place. They are on time...But where is this Demyx guy? The one that's supposed to pick them up?
Riku put Sora down in a chair. That boy could sleep like a log. He sat down next to him, making sure the poor guy didn't fall over. Watching the younger boy even made Riku drowsy. "Sora, wake up. He is going to be here any minute now." Riku looked down at his watch. More time had passed than he thought. Sora was oblivious to fact as he was now sleeping against Riku's shoulder.
Finally Riku spotted someone approaching with a sign. It had their names on it. This must be Demyx. Riku dragged Sora out of his seat. "Come on, it's time to go." Sora's eyes widened. "When did we get here?" His smile broadened. "We are almost there, aren't we?" Riku marveled at how Sora could go from one extreme to another.
Demyx approached the area they were standing in. "You must be Riku, and Sora." Riku took on his smug appearance once again. "You're late." Demyx frowned. "Now that's just plain rude. I only asked who you were. I guess I could just tell the head of the school that you guys were no shows..." Sora was practically jumping up and down now. "No! You can't do that." Riku couldn't help but laugh at how seriously Sora took everything.
Demyx was an odd one. He had short blonde hair. A certain something or the other about him, that just made you want to watch out. Demyx pulled a paper out of his coat pocket. "Now let's see...Ah, yes. Pick up the kids...take them to the dorms...Riiiiight then. I told them they chose the wrong guy for this." Sora looked up with a questioning look. The guy had to read a paper to know what he was supposed to do. "You're weird." Demyx smirked. "You think so, do you?"
Riku gave Sora a warning look, and not another word came out. Demyx started walking. "Take your stuff. We're leaving now." Sora and Riku rolled their stuff down to an old Chevrolet they assumed must be Demyx's personal vehicle. They threw their stuff into the bed of the truck.
Demyx unfolded another piece of paper. This one had pictures on it. Sora didn't remember sending a picture...Riku must have done it. Demyx held the paper up to the light. "Riiiight. So Sora you can sit in the middle." Riku smirked, glad it wasn't himself.
Demyx was weird, no doubt about that. Sora scooted over, closer to Riku. Demyx quirked an eyebrow. "So you two are rooming together?" Riku glanced out the window, examining the new scenery. "Yea. What of it?" Demyx just laughed. "Then I'll be sure to watch over you guys then. Hmm?" Riku continued to gaze out the window. "Good news boys. I'm going to be the counselor on your dorms floor." A sound came from Riku's direction. It sounded a little like, hmph.
When they got to the dorm, Demyx handed them some packets. "Those are all the school rules, and your schedules for this year. You're on the second floor." He paused and looked down at his paper again. "Room 223." He searched around more of his pockets. "Your keys. If you lose them, there is a replacement fee. All in the packets..." He walked off letting Riku and Sora find their way around.
"Come on Sora. Let's get our stuff up to the room, before everyone starts coming back." Everyone was still at lunch so they didn't have to worry about running into anyone on their way. Sora looked around. "I can't believe we are really here." "I can. I've had this idea for ages."
The dorm was actually pretty nice. Their were a couple of shared bathrooms on the floor. Sora made a mental note to get up early enough to get the warm water. As they started unpacking Sora began to shiver. It seems the dorm was air conditioned. Sora was used to spending his days out under the sun. Riku noticed this and turned the air down.
"Isn't this great? We finally get to spend some time together." Sora plopped down on his new bed. "What are you talking about? We are always together." Riku followed suit and sat down next to Sora. "Yea. But we're always with Wakka, Tidus, Selphie, and worst of all Kairi." Sora laid back. "Kairi's not that bad. She just likes hanging out with us." "Let's go to lunch before the cafeteria closes."
xXx
Chapter 3 should be up in a day or so. We get to meet some new people then, heh.
