Sora stepped into the room a few minutes before the bell would ring. He slid into his seat and just stared out the window trying to avoid Kairi's gaze. How can the world be so happy he thought. How can people laugh, how can people enjoy life if it's so sad? No sooner than later, the happier personalized boy snapped back to reality.

"What am I thinking!? Just 'cause I'm sad doesn't mean I have to think everyone's gotta be!" he said out loud.

"Yeah Sora, you're right. You really are right." The same cunning voice said to him.

"Veronica, why do you keep popping up everywhere when I try to think?" Sora said. She gave nothing more than her evil stare. "Tell me."

"Oh well, maybeeeeee," she quickly leaned forward started to kiss him. He had no idea what the heck she was doing so he decided to try and push her off. Veronica was stronger than he thought; she just put her arms tightly around him to make it look like they were doing that on purpose. Kairi stepped into the room, looking at the floor trying to think of what to say to Sora. She went to his seat and looked up and saw what was happening.

"Hey Sora—" she said. Veronica finally let him go, and he turned to start explaining this. But before he could, she was clutching her fists really hard and her body was tense. She raised a hand to slap him and let it down. Veronica gave her a so-what-about-you look with her bad-mouthed face. Kairi did nothing else but run out the classroom right past Mr. Lorlare. The whole class was there now, staring at them. He knew he couldn't trust Veronica to tell him the full truth of what just happened, so he asked his second best student to take over for a while and took Sora out the room to ask him a few questions.

"Would you like to tell me what happened, Sora?" he asked. "You don't have to if you don't want to, but seeing the state Kairi's in, and seeing she came from the direction of you and Veronica, it's probably serious."

"Hm, okay." Sora started from yesterday when he asked Kairi out to what just happened in class.

"Yes, yes, just as I thought." Mr. Lorlare said.

"Thought what?"

"You and Kairi like each other!"

"Riku was right, he told me you thought that. And I don't like her… well, actually—"

"Sora just let it go. I know you do, she knows you do too, she's just waiting for you to know. And Veronica likes you too, the thing is, you don't. So you do need to tell her softly. She'll probably ask if you can still be friends, you can say yes or you can say no. It depends on you, and so will your relationship with Kairi."

Sora was still taking in the advice his teacher gave him for another second or so. "But when will I be able to talk to her again. She's going to be avoiding me for so long."

"Tell me, what other classes to you have with her?"

"We're science partners, but it's later in the afternoon."

"Then that's perfect! Kairi's a girl who doesn't skip school, and girls all in all usually need time to let something go or at least cool down. Start thinking of what you should say to her, it's going to really burn up if you say one tiny thing wrong. And don't worry to do small inside jokes, just take them all serious though, okay Sora?"

He gave a nod and they went into the room. Mr. Lorlare said thank you to the student. He let Sora have one of the window desks. Then he started talking about the best way to cover up cracks and comparing pottery to baking.

Somehow, Veronica and any other clichés in the class snuck out, probably going to get all her other friends to their secret hideout in the trees in front of the school. No one knew when they formed, but everyone knew why, for the benefits of another member. In this case, it was for getting Veronica together with Sora, even if they all knew it was impossible.

"Okay crew, I got to kiss him! And Kairi saw too!" Veronica squealed to them. Alyssa with the biggest conscience started whispering to everyone else that this was a bad idea. They all wanted Sora and Kairi to be together, even if it could damage their popularity status. "Alyssa!" Veronica snapped, "Is there anything you want to tell us?"

She turned her blonde-highlighted brown hair to face Veronica, whipping a few people with her long hair. "Oh, nothing. Nothing at all."

"I know you're lying. Your face turned pinkish and your eyes blinked faster, you didn't look me in the eye, your breathing changed and you scratched your nose."

"Soooooo. What would we care about that for?"

"Stop playing dumb. Tell me what you said." Now Veronica was angry. And when she wants something while she's mad, she gets it.

Alyssa took a deep breath and stood herself up by Veronica. "Veronica, why should we keep on getting you and Sora together? Yeah you think he's cute, but doesn't every other girl in school too? It's impossible! We all know he likes Kairi, and she likes him back—"

Veronica's stare blocked her concentration. "But that's not what's happening right now. I have a chance. And you? Well, I got two words for you: Good Bye."

Veronica's mean and madly in love with Sora. And when she said good-bye to Alyssa, don't worry, she didn't kill her. But she did do something. Keep r&r and you'll find out.
