Chapter Four: Meeting The Roommate

Aerith grinned widely, checking her watch, "Well, it's just about curfew." She paused, glancing at Sora, "By the way, curfew is at seven on weekdays and nine on weekends..." She shook her head, "It's not like anyone actually follows them anyway." She added, "We can go to your dorm now that we're done filling out all this evil paperwork that I'll have to go over later."

Sora nodded, standing, blinking as his eyes scanned the room, which was strangely quiet, "Where's Selphie?" He asked curiously.

Aerith blinked, "Probably off harassing some poor student. It's her past time, I don't keep track of how many boy's she dates at this school." She glanced at Sora, "So, if I were you, I'd watch your back. I'd be more afraid of her then Riku."

Sora laughed softly, "I have a girlfriend back home." He pointed out.

Aerith shook her head, "Her motto is 'What she don't know, won't hurt her.' She doesn't care. She brags about Riku being a heartbreaker, I can't count how many boy's hearts she broke." She paused, laughing, "She actually gives Riku a run for his money."

Sora shook his head, "Well, I'm not interested in Selphie, so, I doubt that she'd talk me into going out with her." He said.

Aerith grinned, "Yeah, but, she doesn't let that stop her either. There's only one way to stop her..." She said pausing, before grinning, "...say your gay. And, sometimes, that doesn't even work."

Sora snorted, "Well, I'm not gay, bi maybe, but not gay." He commented.

"Oh boy..." Aerith said, slapping her hand to her forehead, "I would seriously watch yourself around Riku; your the type of boy he usually goes for. Things could get ugly if you let him get to you."

Sora waved his hand dismissively, "Don't worry about it, I don't want to cheat on my girlfriend."

Aerith frowned slightly, grabbing her dorm key and pocketing it, 'Yeah, but you haven't met Riku yet, either.' She though, shaking her head. Maybe, Sora...he'd be different.

:Flashback:

There was a loud banging at her door, rousing Aerith from her slumber. She shot up, "Where's the fire!" She cried.

Selphie threw a pillow at her, "There's someone at the door, stupid." She said, turning over and covering her head with a pillow.

Aerith slowly pushed herself out of bed, pulling on her robe, "Coming!" She yelled at the persistent beating. 'This had better be good...' She thought, her eyes narrowing as she walked to the door.

She opened the door to find a sobbing blonde headed teenager, "Aerith..." He cried, looking down, "I want a new dorm."

Aerith crossed her arms, "You woke me up in the middle of the night to tell me this?" She asked, raising an eyebrow, "Why, exactly do you want one?"

The boy glared at her, "Because of that bastard!" He growled.

Aerith blinked, "Bas...oh no...come on in Roxas, lets talk." She said opening her door to the blonde, "I take it Riku did something, right?"

Roxas nodded his head violently, "Yes! I caught him in bed with..." He shook his head, fists clutched in anger, "That bastard is cheating on me!" He yelled.

Aerith's eyes widened as she placed a hand on his shoulder, "It's alright, I'll see what I can do about finding you a new dorm room."

Roxas nodded, "The sooner, the better." He said, finally calm, at least somewhat, "I'll stay with my cousin until then, is that ok?"

Aerith nodded, "Who's your cousin?" She asked, pulling out a small tab of paper.

"Tidus, dorm room 54C." He answered, cupping his cheek.

"Alright, you can stay here tonight if you want and I'll have a talk with Riku tomorrow." Aerith said, "I don't know how many times I told him about sex in the dorm rooms." She said shaking her head.

Roxas chuckled, "You didn't seem to have a problem with it when we were sleeping together." He pointed out.

Aerith smiled, "Ok, I'll talk to him about sleep around with people who aren't his roommate and boyfriend, how's that?"

Roxas laughed softly, "Works for me!"

:End Flashback:

Aerith led Sora down a hallway, "This is the freshman hall." She paused as a group of teens walked past, not looking like freshmen in the least, "Though, you'll come to find that most of the upper classmen stay here." She added, an eyebrow raised.

Sora blinked, "Why would upper classmen still stay in the freshman dorms, isn't that not a blow to their reputations?" He asked, curiously.

Aerith shook her head, "Not when the whole upper classmen population try to get rooms here. They like it so much because the other dorm mothers are complete asses." She said, pulling out a key, "Now, I highly doubt that Riku is home right now, he was never one to follow the curfew." She said, sticking the key into the lock.

"Is Riku a freshmen?" He asked, glancing at Aerith.

The brown headed girl opened her mouth to reply, but she was immediately cut off, "Nope, I'm a sophomore." Sora spun around to see a silver haired boy, slightly taller than him with a smirk plastered on his handsome face, "And, I'm wondering why the dorm mother is trying to get into my dorm, with the wrong key might I add, with a boy whom I've never seen before."

Aerith said, pulling the key out, "I knew this was the wrong one, stupid Selphie!" She muttered before shaking her head, "This is Sora, he's your new roommate." She said, nodding to the brown headed boy.

Sora grinned sheepishly, "Hi."

The silver haired boy arched an eyebrow, "Roommate?" He said questionably.

Aerith nodded, "Roommate." She said sternly, "And I trust he won't turn out like the last one, right, Riku?"

Riku smirked, rubbing his chin, "You mean Roxas, right?" He asked.

Aerith nodded, placing her hands on her hips, "Yes, that's exactly who I mean." She said, narrowing her eyes, "So no funny business, you hear me, Tanaka? I don't want a reply of that little scene."

Riku smiled innocently, "Of course not." He glanced at Sora, biting his lip, a sign that he was thinking, "Of course not..." He repeated, a wide smile on his face as he stared at the younger boy.

Aerith snorted, crossing her arms, "You better hope so or I'll make you go back to your dorm block." She threatened.

Riku chuckled, "Don't worry, there won't be a reply of Roxas." He said.

Aerith glared at Riku for a moment, "Alright..." She said, "I'm going to go finish my rounds, I'm sure you'll get him settled in, right?"

Riku grinned widely (obviously taking the comment the wrong way), "Certainly!" He said brightly as Aerith began to walk away. Riku sighed shaking his head before he eyed Sora, "You're a freshman, right?" He asked.

Sora slowly nodded, eyeing the elder boy wearily, "Uh-huh." He answered.

Riku nodded, unlocking the dorm door, "Look, whatever Aerith and her sister said about me, don't believe them, ok?" He said, not looking at Sora as he walked in, "I'm not as bad as they make me out to be."

Sora blinked before nodding, "Whatever." He answered.

Riku sighed, "Well, I won't try to rape you in your sleep or anything." He said playfully, "Well, this is it." He said, holding up his arms and turning around once, "The dorm room I refuse to give up."

Sora laughed softly, his blue eyes glancing around the small but roomy dorm.

Riku smiled slightly, "You have a nice laugh." He mentioned, titling his head to the side as he surveyed Sora.

Sora blushed softly, "Uh, thanks...I think." He said, turning away from Riku.

Riku smirked, "Your bedroom is right over there." He said pointing to said room.

Sora nodded quickly, "T-thanks." He said.

Riku merely smiled, "See you in the morning, I'm turning in." He said, before winking at Sora and walking towards his own room.

Sora watched Riku until his door shut with a soft click. Then he let out a breath he hadn't realized he had been holding. He shook his head, opening his bedroom door. That was weird to say the least.

Sora would almost say that Riku had been flirting with him. But, if the silver haired boy was flirting with him, why did he react the was he did? Blushing, stuttering...he didn't even react that way when Kairi flirted with him and he was dating her!

Sora shook his head, he would have to watch himself around Riku. The boy had the charm and the brains to use it. And, Sora was finding it hard to resist him already and he had just met the boy a few minutes ago.

Needless to say...this was going to be a very interesting year in Traverse Town.
