Riku and Sora Skip School...Again
Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!
Sora rolled over and looked at the alarm clock. 7:15 a.m. By all means he should get up but he just couldn't, staying up all night playing Kingdom Hearts II made him slap the alarm clock and fall back onto his bed.
Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!
7:30 a.m. He should be in the shower.
Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!
7:45 a.m. He should be dressed and doing last minute homework.
Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!
8:00 a.m. School starts in half an hour, he should really at least get up.
Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!
8:15 a.m. Ok, maybe he should get up.
Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!
8:20 a.m. Wait? That's not my alarm clock, that's my cell phone. Great...probably myDad calling to make sure I get up and go to school this time.
"Hellooowww..." Sora mumbled his voice cracking and fading off. He blinked his crusted eyes a few times looking at his apartmentsized room his parents gaveto him when he turned 16. Nowhe was in his Senior year of Highschool, well he was out of it more than in it.
"Sora! Hey, um, are you going to school today?" The happy chipper voice said on the other line.
"I was planning on it, why Riku." Sora said recognizing his best friends voice.
"Well, meand Leon were going to go and have breakfast at BigBoy." Riku said.
"Ok, I'll get dressed." Sora said swinging his legs out of bed.
"We will be there in 10 minutes." Riku said hanging up.
Everyone knew that Sora and Riku were school skipping buddies. Although Riku still was going to graduate with honors, whichwas a mystery to the both of them. They enjoyed their Senior year together out of school when they should have been in school. It was true some friends tagged along like Leon, Cloud, and Yuffie at times, but for the most part they were a school skipping duet. Sora was about to break a record for most days missed and still able to graduate, last time he checked he had missed 60/180 days.
Sora jumped in the shower and rapidly washed himself. Afterwards he pulled on his favorite vintage tee, new jeans ripped style, and black and yellow DC's. Since it was early February he grabbed a black quicksilver hoodie and sat around waiting for his friends.
15 minutes later Riku and Leon arrived 5 minutes late. The usual greetings followed as they all made sure they had wallets, keys, and cell phones.
"Who's car are we taking?" Riku asked.
"Mine, it gets way better gas milage than yours." Sora said. Which was not only a good excuse to be the one to drive but it was true, his little 2001 Silver Saturn might not win in a Nascar race but it could outlast any car in their Senior class in mileage.
Shaking with freezing cold they backed out of Sora's drive way and began their trip to BigBoy that was one town over. It was only a 12 minute drive on the highway, and they took that opportunity to exchange funny stories that they had all been there for.
Pulling into the BigBoy parking lot Sora closed his door, locking the car, and walking away. He stumbled and slipped falling over the trunk of the car. The first thought that came to him was, 'Ow', the second was, 'I hate winter.'
After picking himself off of the car Sora caught up to the other two boys and they entered the diner. It was almost 9 a.m at this time and the entire place was filled with the 65-75 year old seniors that like to get together early mornings to sip coffee and chit chat to avoid people like Sora, Riku, and Leon. Smiling the waiter eagerly seated the three boys close to many tables that held said seniors.
"I want a chocolate milkshake." Leon said looking at the menu.
"You are on the dessert side, this is breakfast." Riku said pointing to the other side of the menu.
"I don't care, I want one with our breakfast." Leon retorted snapping his menu closed and looking at Sora who was sitting on the other side.
"I like that idea." Sora said.
"So you will get one too?" Leon asked.
"No." Sora simple stated.
The waiter returned to take their orders, Sora and Riku ordered O.J, and Leon his chocolate milkshake. All three decided on the breakfast buffet, it seemed like the best way to annoy other people. After ordering all three got up and headed to the buffet bar to check out the selection. Of course taking advantage of the all you can eat, Sora and Riku did just that, Sora constantly trying different things and deciding not to eat the rest, and going again and again. Leon on the other hand just looked at his plate.
"I'm not hungry." Leon said poking some egg.
"You will have to pay 7.50 anyway." Sora warned, he waswondering where the powedered sugar was for his french toast, sub sandwich made of sausage, egg, bacon, pancake, syrup, and ketchup.
"Oh well, at least I got this awesome milkshake." Leon sighed.
"How much was it?" Riku asked trying to such the last of his orange juice through the straw. The noise was so terrible that Sora's eyes squinted. Many elderly people just stared at the table.
"4." Leon answered drinking in more. Just then the waiter returned with a metal cup they use to make the shakes in.
"Excuse me, would you like this? If you don't drink it I will have to throw it out."He said holding it out to Leon. Leon happily took the cup and thanked him, he bobbed it up and down in his hand testing the weight.
"He gave me half a cup of milkshake." Leon said staring inside.
Sora got an evil grin, "He probably likes you! You should repay him with your phone number!" Sora said. All three busted into a fit of laughter as the senior citizens stared on at the "glue sniffers" who were skipping school.
To be continued...
