OMG it's me again! Rawr!
Thanks very much for the nice comments. Fun Sized, you especially. Sorry about the dividers…. I didn't know the tilde wasn't supported so the dividers didn't exist.
Bwaha Masasume, you aren't as special because you know me! But thank you for commenting anyway; it makes me feel good to know the story is being read by someone else.
Enjoy! (As much as is possible…)

She was lost. She knew not where she was, nor where she had been. Fear rose in her chest as she realized she had no way out. Frantically, she retraced her path, as far as she could remember. It seemed to go on forever, and she soon forgot where she was before.
This time, instead of trying, Evora gave up. Sitting back in her desk, she folded her arms and sighed. Nature would always overpower man, and it showed. There was no way out of the wood maze of her desk. She stared at the clock, willing it to move faster. The second hand was forty seconds slow, and she felt she would explode until the bell finally rang, releasing her from class.
Unfortunately, it was no better in Study Skills. Evora had already finished all the notes on the chapter, and of course the teacher let them have the entire hour to finish them. On the edge of despair, Evora decided to sleep. She always needed more anyway. She plopped her head on her arms and closed her eyes.
"Class!" called the teacher. "We have a new student!" Evora lazily turned her head, and looked to the new kid-
"RIKU!" she said at the same time as the teacher. The class mumbled a dull greeting. Evora was struck speechless, her fangirl heart pounding loudly in her ears.
"Hmmm….. there is an empty seat right over there next to Evora. Evora, raise your hand please."
She weakly put her hand in the air, and watched in fascination as her beloved bishounen strode over to her and took the seat to her left. Meanwhile, the class got back to work.
"It…. It's really you….." she breathed. Riku said nothing. In the silence, Evora reached out and reverently pinched the boy on the arm.
"Hey!" he said in a low voice. "What was that for?"
"You're real!" Evora swooned. "I told them all you were real but none of them believed me-" she said with a mad glint in her eye.
"Oh. You must be the fangirl I'm sentenced to." said Riku huffily.
"Sentenced?" asked Evora innocently.
"Long story." said the bishie, waving his hand.
"Tell me." said Evora passionately, eyes sparkling. "I want to know everything about you."
Riku just whacked his head on the desk.
--
When the two got outside in the school courtyard, Evora threw her backpack on the ground and glomped Riku.
"I've loved you for so long, and now you're finally here! To hold! To be with! To take-"
"Would you stop!" asked Riku, annoyed, as he tried to extract an arm to push her off him.
"-and eat cupcakes, and go to the park, and hold hands at the amusement park, and –"
"You there!" yelled a new voice. "Evora!"
The fangirl turned her head from its place (buried in Riku's chest) to glare at the interruption on their love. One-sided love may it be.
"You know the rules, Miss Evora." said the random hall monitor. "Public display of affection is banned. Now will you come to the deans nicely or do I have to pull you two apart?"
--
The two had to wait a very long time to see the dean. Evora asked what the issue was.
"We just got a new dean." said the secretary politely. "He is new to this job. It will only be a few more minutes."
Five minutes later, Evora and Riku were called in to the office. Evora looked sullenly up at the dean, and almost fell over her own feet.
"What is the matter?" asked Sephiroth. Riku watched with mild interest.
"So many…. bishies….." gasped Evora.
"It's only two." said Riku irritably, crossing his arms over his chest.
"Bishounen……" breathed Evora, and she fainted.
--
She woke up on the couch of her living room. Blearily, she opened her eyes and looked around cluelessly. Then the events of the day flooded back to her.
"SEPHY-SAMA!" she yelled. "I'M AWAKE NOW! I WANNA SEE YOU!"
Evora heard a banging deep in the house, and the silver-haired bishie came in the room.
"Finally you're awake." he growled. "You had to miss school and you almost missed dinner, too."
"I don't care! You're here!" she said happily. Sephiroth was about to say something more when a huge crash echoed in the house.
"Hey…. What are you guys up to anyway?" asked Evora suspiciously.
"Uhm nothing." said Sephiroth with a bright but far from trustworthy smile.
"Don't make me go over there and look." she said, getting up.
"Careful-" called Sephiroth, and ran over to catch Evora when she fell.
Her cheeks bloomed bright red. "Awwwwwww!" she squeed.
"You're such a dork." muttered Sephiroth. "Getting up right after you've fainted."
Evora said nothing, as she was not capable of thinking of anything else besides the fact that she was in Sephiroth's arms.
A huge thud rocked the house, and unfortunately for Evora, Sephiroth had to investigate. He stood her up and ran from the living room.
"RRRRRGH!" Evora growled, and ran after him to see what trouble Riku was getting into.
--
Evora followed Sephy into the garage, where Riku stood beside a heap of stuff that fell out of the cabinet he was poking into.
"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!" yelled Evora, dismayed despite herself, because she knew she would end up being the one to clean it up.
"Hey! I was just looking for a rice cooker!" Riku yelled back. "We are Japanese, you know!"
"Uh…." started Sephy, a little weirded out that he had to break up the argument. "Well, I take it you don't have a rice cooker, Evora-san?"
"No." she said, still giving Riku the Glare of Death.
"Then what can we make for dinner?" Sephy asked evenly.
"Sorry." Evora apologized suddenly, snapping out of her Glare. "I'm not a very good hostess, am I?"
"No!" groused Riku.
Evora ignored him. "We shall have pizza." she declared, closing the discussion.
--
When the three finished dinner, Evora put Sephy up in the guest room and Riku in her own bed. She spent a few hours dreaming about what she would do with her bishies until it was midnight. Evora frowned. At this rate she would never get any sleep. So, she got up and shuffled downstairs to get the only thing that would cure her insomnia: ice cream.
Yawning, she felt for the freezer handle and opened the door, shivering at the breath of cold air. She opened her eyes and stood absolutely still.
"Don't you have any other flavors of ice cream besides vanilla?" complained Axel.
Evora shut the door, stunned.
Then she opened it again.
"Well? Do you?"
"Axel! I- i- in the freezer?" Evora cried, her heart beating irregularly for the third time that day.
"Aren't you happy to see me?" the bishie asked, stepping out of the freezer and knocking over the dazed fangirl.
"Ah! I'm sorry!" he apologized, and offered a hand to help her up. Evora dreamily took it.
"I'll never wash this hand again…" she whispered reverently.
--
Yeah…… uh I guess I'm still getting used to doing this on my own, because usually Evora is played by my friend in an RP.
Yes, I will be using the honorifics just for laughs, plus because it is respectful.
Okay, yeah. Hope you enjoyed!
