Face Down
Chapter 2
-Ironic, Isn't it?-
The next day at school was very hectic. Firstly, I was late. Sora and Namine' let me sleep in, and took the car. So that meant I had to walk. Second, my friends kept poking fun at me for spending my after-school hours yesterday with Axel. That red-headed little shit is ruining my life!!
"We saw you two at the Ice Cream Shoppe!" Demyx laughed. I gave him a death glare, and he hid behind Marluxia with a yelp. I rolled my eyes and turned around. I nearly jumped ten feet into the air when I turned to see Axel.
"HIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!" he said, so overly happy it made me sick. My friends started snickering.
"We'll see ya later, Rox," they said, swiftly walking past Axel and I. After they were about five feet away from us, they burst into laughter. I swear I was about to throw my mathbook at them, but I forced myself not to. I turned to Axel and glared at him with gritted teeth.
"So, Roxy-kun--"
"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU JUST CALL ME!?!" I yelled at him angrily. He stared at me. He looked scared...
"Roxy-kun?" he said. I screamed angrily and stormed off. Everyone in the hallway was staring at me, some were whispering, and I even heard some laughing. Axel just simply stood there, as if he didn't know what went wrong.
----------------------
It was lunch time now, and as usual, I sat down next to my friends. As I sat, I noticed they were nearly finished with their food.
"That was quick," I said, eyeing them suspiciously.
"Uh...yeah! We gotta go, Rox. Cya!" Marluxia said, and they quickly got up and left. My jaw dropped. Do they seriously think I'm that stupid to believe what their trying to do?! It's obvious that their avoiding me because--
"Hi, Roxy!" Axel said happily, sitting down next to me. I glared at him. Oh, how I wish I could just wipe that stupid smile off his face and make him die...
"Do you have mental issues?" I asked rudely with a smirk. He cocked his head to the side and stared at me cluelessly. I stared back boredly.
"I'm guessing that's a yes..."
"So, Roxy, wanna do homework together tonight?" he asked me, putting a spoonful of pudding in his mouth.
"Sure, whatever," I said before I realized the question. My eye twitched.
"Wait, I mean--"
"Okay!! We'll walk to your house together!!" he said with a smile, showing all his pearly white teeth. And so, my forehead and the table met once again.
---------------------
The moment the bell rang, I ran outside of the classroom and darted down the sidewalk to my house. Now I would be free from Axel for sure. And of course, I wasn't. I ran up to my doorstep and spotted Axel standing in front of the door at the house next to mine. He turned to face me and smiled. My eyes widened. He jumped the fence that separated our lawns, and ran up to me.
"Gee, Roxy! I thought I'd never catch up to you!"
My eye twitched again, and I slammed my head on my front door. Axel looked at me cluelessly.
"I didn't want you to catch up with me, fool!!" I said angrily. He cocked his head to the side, wearing such a blank expression that it almost made me laugh.
"But what about homework--"
"AXEL LISTEN! I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM YOU EVER SINCE I MET YOU!!" I yelled, "JUST LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE!"
He stared at me with a shocked expression, then looked down.
"Sorry, Roxas," he said, and slowly walked back to the fence. I felt kind of bad about this, but the kid's annoying as hell!! It's not my fault!! Right? I watched as Axel opened his front door and stepped inside his house. I can tell that 'guilt' was written all over my face, because I sure felt it.
