Nobody's Loveletter

Thinking about relationships seemed to be on every students minds that Monday morning. They were all chattering about who was with who now, and who had left who, and whom it was that had streaked totally naked through Hayner's house, slipped and fell into the pool on that Saturday night party.

It was so annoying and childish.

It made him feel sick.

Eyes seemed to be staring off into space, while his right hand seemed to have a mind all of its own and was sliding over the lined page of his workbook, doodling swirls and squiggles. Expression was a bored and very unamused male teen with tear drops detailed onto his cheeks beneath emerald green eyes. Black ink of the pen in his hand slid over words already scrawled onto the page. It may have been notes for English, or Geography even. He really couldn't care less.

There was even a droning noise going on in the room, and someone seemed to saying his name. What appeared to be a hand waved before eyes that weren't focused on anything in particular, and the hand he was using to rest his head upon moved so that he could rub at the side of his face. He even grumbled something to that voice talking to him.

"I think he's dead!" came the female voice, and something blonde moved opposite him. "Maybe we can string him up by his ankles from the ceiling and whip his sorry dead ass!" She even sounded delighted by these strange and rather cruel thoughts.

There was a sigh from beside him. "Must we? That would create a rather large amount of mess, and I'm none too enthusiastic about cleaning Axel mush from the floors for a punishment"

The droning noise seemed to be moving closer. Ah, how easily it was to tune out the noises teachers made, although it was a little more difficult to mask the two voices of the other two members of this science group. It was amazing that they were even allowed to sit together anymore.

"Would you care to share with the rest of the class what is so much more entertaining than learning about the pollination patterns of plants and the intricate part that bees play Vexen?" came the voice of the teacher. Ah, so it was science class; biology. That explained the two sitting with him.

Larxene giggled.

"The same goes for you Larxene. It seems Axel is the only one of your little group that is listening, even if he should be taking notes" said the teacher, moving over to the lab bench where the three sat.

Not wanting the third party member left out of the punishments, Larxene gave the arm supporting Axel's head a nice little nudge. And watched him come crashing down onto his book in a very ungraceful manner, complete with swearing.

"Axel!" bellowed the beast of a biology teacher. "I will not have swearing in my classroom!"

Here it was. The 'stand outside and learn to hold his tongue' or something along those lines. Teachers needed to think up new punishments these days. After all, Axel never seemed to learn any lesson the 'stand outside' punishment had to offer. Maybe he just wasn't doing it right...

"I want you to write that disgraceful sentence a hundred times over," said the teacher as he hovered over the trio. Somehow, no matter where he moved them to in the classroom, they would always end up back together at some point. They were like a sea sponge that had been mashed up into smaller pieces; they always managed to become the whole again. "And then I want you to write an apology letter for everyone in the class by the next biology lesson, and I'll have you read it out aloud for the whole class"

Larxene looked as if she was going to imploded she was holding back her laughter. Even Vexen had turned away and placed his mouth in his hand to hide his sniggering.

Oh how Axel wanted to punch them both for putting him into such a horrible situation. "Yes sir," he said, eyes transfixed upon the scribbles on the page of his workbook. He was far too annoyed by his two companions to make a fuss. He would of preferred the 'stand outside' punishment right about now, because he could kill for a cigarette.

The teacher seemed pleased by this acceptance of his punishment and turned back to the rest of the class before they could all start talking amongst themselves and disrupting his lesson.

Axel's green eyes were on fire as he glared at his two classmates as they burst into fits of giggles.

The cafeteria at lunchtime had a set hierarchy, and everyone quickly learned their place within this social ladder.

At the top were the strongest brutes in the school, the sports players with bodies like gorillas and minds to match. With them came the best looking girls in the school, with bodies like Barbie and minds to match. They were usually attached to the arm of one of the brutes. Most of the time, these students had more money than they had sense.

Beneath them were the smart students. A strange place for them, but the students usually with the highest grades were used as tutors for those at the top of the ladder, giving them some social status. They kept the brutes in their sports, therefore making the intelligent ones important.

Then came the largest group; the averages. They weren't special enough to get tutored by one of the 'elite geeks', nor were they strong or fast enough to be considered good at sports. Which meant they slipped into this category in the hierarchy.

Then came the scum of the barrel. Lowlifes, outcasts, shadows of students. This group was easy to get into, but harder to get out of.

Roxas found himself in the group he'd always been in; the averages. However, one student that was usually there with him had managed to move up in the social standards and was no longer seated at the table that the group had sat at for years.

"Look at him, thinking he's better than us," murmured Olette, pushing the peas around on her plate while she scowled over at a certain blond that had recently thrown a very large teen party. "One word from them and he was off, like a puppy being offered the best meat; and he doesn't even look back at us" Young Olette had the qualifications to be in the intelligent group, but she never thought herself as overly smart; so had remained where she was, offering herself as a tutor for those that wanted help. She'd been there at that Saturday night party, but was quickly forgotten when a certain Elizabeth had come up and taken Hayner's attention.

"He'll soon realise that they're not his real friends and come back, Olette," reassured Pence, reaching out his hand to pat the brunette on the shoulder. "Right Roxas?"

At the sound of his name, the blond quickly looked up from his plate, pulled out of his own thoughts and totally clueless of what the conversation was about. "Yeah..." he said, agreeing with whatever Pence had said.

"Roxas, is everything alright?" asked the girl sitting opposite him, leaning in to get a closer look at his face. "You look like something is bothering you"

With a heavy sigh, shoulders rising and falling with the weight of the sigh, he gave a slight nod. "Yeah Olette. Don't worry about me,"

She tilted her head to the side, unsure of what to make of Roxas' explanation, or lack thereof. "You left the party early, and you spent most of it alone. Someone told me they saw you with Axel though. I'm scared they might be making rumours; they said you two were cuddled up together"

"Yeah Roxas. Axel is bad news. You should stay away from him," Pence added.

There was a shake of his head as Roxas disagreed with them. "Axel isn't what people think him to be. He's just misunderstood, thats all"

"Misunderstood? Axel has been bullying you since you could walk!" protested the small brunette. "I think you should just stay away from him"

"I can't," Roxas said. "My Aunt Elra wants me to invite him around for dinner tonight,"

Both Pence and Olette stared at the spiky haired blond. "For dinner?" Olette repeated.

Roxas nodded. "She wants to talk to him"

"So thats why you've been acting like your not all there today?" Pence asked, as if he were summing up why Roxas was being a little not-so-Roxas today.

Another nod from the blond.

"I wonder what she wants to talk to him about..." the female mused as she went back to pushing her peas around the white ceramic plate.

Long slender arms reached up, stretching out his body; his back giving a cracking sound as spine arched. Hands fell to his hips and gave them an outwards push, with happy, contented sounds coming from him.

He'd just spent about an hour on the most uncomfortable stool that his biology teacher could find writing the words 'cock sucking thunder cunt' over and over; well past a hundred times. There was one lesson he'd learned from a punishment: remember to smash Larxene and Vexen's faces in. Oh, and to never swear like that infront of his biology teacher.

Walking along the empty hallways towards his locker, the school almost felt eerie being so abandoned and empty. He was used to people pushing through the throng trying to get wherever it was they intended to go. Seeing the school corridors so desolate was almost unnerving.

Trying not to fixate upon the empty world around him, the redhead's thoughts wandered onto where he was going to spend tonight. He couldn't go and spend the night at Demyx's because he was taking Zexion out to see a movie. True, Axel had been invited along with the pair to watch 'Mutated Killer Zombies From Outer Space', but he'd declined the offer because he simply didn't want to be a third wheel. Plus, such a B-rate sounding movie didn't seem too appealing to him.

Lost within his own world, eyes drifting to gaze at the various things on the walls, he didn't notice a small blonde rushing down the hallway until she collided with him and sent him toppling to the ground. He ended up flat on his back with the girl on his chest, the books she'd been carrying scattered around them.

"Ouchies..." she murmured as she sat herself up, eyes closed so that she couldn't see what it was she'd landed on.

"Nice to see you too," Axel said as he lay there, grinning up at the girl.

Eyes flew open to reveal bright green eyes that stared at his pale face in pure shock. Her blonde hair was set into braids, with a large amount loose; all kept up neatly by a blue headband. Arms flew to her chest where she clasped her hands tight while making a short and sharp shocked sound. "Oh my! Oh no! Oh, I'm so, so, so sorry! How can I ever apologise to you?"

Axel grunted, pushing himself up on his elbows and smirking at the girl. "By getting off of me?"

She smiled, blushing furiously and pushed herself up off of the teen's chest. Dusting herself off, she held out her hand to help Axel up off the floor. "I didn't mean to, I'm just so late! My brother will kill me if I'm late again!"

Taking her small hand in his, he pulled himself up with a little of the girl's help. Dusting off the dirt from the back of his pants, he smiled at her, then pushed a hand through his red hair. "Don't worry about it. I wasn't looking where I was going either," he said, bending down to help her pick up her books from the hallway floor. "Hey, don't I know you?"

"Nope, don't think so," she said, gratefully taking her books from him and hugging them to her chest once more.

"I've seen your photograph. Only a white marble mantle piece. Family portrait."

The girl gave Axel a confused look. "You've been in my house?"

Then it clicked, and Axel grinned. "You Rikku! His little sister!"

She leaned forwards, her green eyes scrutinising him intently. "You know my brother?"

There was a smirk on Axel's lips. "You could say I know him, yeah. How is he anyway? I haven't seen him in a while though" Seen him; Axel barely thought about him unless he was dwelling on the more sadder times, such as at the weekend. "You'll let him know Axel said hi for me won't you?"

Rikku smiled brightly, nodding her head at a furious pace. "Oh yeah! Of course I'll tell him! He's picking me up, you can say hi to him yourself if you wanna?"

He pondered this for a few moments, stuffing his hands into his pockets. He might as well say hello to his old friend, afterall he had nothing better to be doing and it would kill a few minutes at the least. "Sure, why not?"

There was a grin now on her face and she reached out and grabbed his hand, tugging him along towards a side exit of the school. It was near the art rooms, the walls covered with various works by the students. Even the small amount of lockers there were multicoloured and decorated by the students. Letting her grip go from Axel's arm, Rikku paused at one of the lockers that was covered with cut-up pictures of various mechanical machines and opened it and began rummaging through the various articles she kept within. It was so unlike a typical girl's locker. Through her messing a wrench fell out and clattered to the ground. Blushing, she stepped back, bent down and retrieved it.

"Heh, oops" she said, stuffing it back inside and pulling out an old and worn blue backpack and stuffed a few books inside.

"Rikku!" came a voice from one of the art rooms. Behind him followed a certain spiky haired blond that Axel recognised instantly.

Her green eyes flitted to the pair, and grinning happily she gave them a big wave, bouncing on her heels. "Pence! Roxas! Hey there!"

The two males walked over to join the group, although Roxas looked as if he didn't want to be there; his hands were stuffed deep into his pockets and his blue gaze was focused purely onto the tiled floor he stood upon.

While Rikku and Pence began chatting away, Roxas looked up at the older male and forced a smile onto his lips. "My aunt wants you to come over for dinner tonight," he said with a simple shrug to show he didn't mind whether or not Axel came along.

Axel smiled and ruffled the blond's hair affectionately. "Yeah, why not?" He turned to Rikku and smiled back at her when she beamed at him now her conversation with Pence was over. "Hey, looks like I'll be giving it a miss on saying hi to your brother"

She pouted. "You sure? I'm sure he won't mind giving his friend a ride to wherever he's going."

"Oh no, I don't want to be a burden on him," Axel said, shaking his head. "Just let him know you saw me, alright?"

Rikku nodded. "Sure, okay then Axel. What about you Roxas? Pence?"

Pence gave a nod. Roxas shook his head however. "I'll walk, I'll of missed my bus anyway"

"Rikku, how long do you have to take?" came a voice from the doorway at the end of the hall. Peering through the doorway was a blond with his hair spiked up at the front, and gelled down at the back with a tribal tattoo on the left side of his face. "Ah, I see your talking with friends, no longer your taking forever. Well, just hurry up then"

"Zelly!" cried the girl, slamming her locker door shut and spinning around to face her older brother. "You know your not allowed to come into school! Go outside! Go on, shoo!"

He smirked. Axel had seen that smirk a thousand times, and it still managed to have the same effect upon him. "Hey Zell," he said, waving a hand lightly in the air. "How's it going?"

Zell's blue eyes flitted straight to the redhead and his mouth almost fell open. "Hey...Axel..." His hand came up and rubbed the back of his neck lightly, feeling rather awkward in the current situation now. "I forgot you went here," As if looking for an escape route, he looked to his sister and smiled. "Rikku, I'll be outside when your ready. Hurry up will ya!"

She grinned at her older brother, shrugging her bag over her shoulder. "Zelly, can you give my friends a ride home too? Roxas said he's missed his bus and I can talk to Pence about the art project we're working on together! Pleasey-weasy? You'll be my uber bestest brother in the whole world"

"I'm your only brother," he said smirking and pulled opened the large door he was peering around and leaned his back against the edge of the other, arms folding loosely at his chest. "Fine, I'll give your friends a ride home. But only because I'm the greatest brother in the world"

Rikku grinned and hopped over to her big brother, wrapping her arms tightly around his waist. "Your the bestest!" she announced. Releasing the older male, she moved away and jumped merrily down the steps, Pence following her. Roxas looked over at Axel, then over to Zell. There was something unspoken between the two males and it was making his skin itch.

"Well, come on then" Zell said, pushing away from the door and following after his hyperactive sister. "Where do you live Roxas?"

"Near Axel," replied the other blond. "Do you know the street?"

Zell nodded, the corners of his lips fighting off a smile. "Yeah, I know it. Tried teaching Axel skateboarding on the road there. He doesn't have much in the way of balance though," he said as the group headed for the school's parking lot. "What about you Axel, you going home?"

Axel shook his head slowly, eyes cast to the ground. "Roxas' aunt invited me over for dinner tonight. What are you doing?"

There was a shrug from the eldest male. "Besides babysitting my little sister and moping around my apartment; absolutely nothing. I haven't had the drive to do much since Quisty ditched me" he explained, giving the occasional glance to the red haired teen.

It was getting to be too much for him, and Roxas nudged his way between them. They were both slightly taller than he was, but he didn't care. There was something going on between them and he was determined to get to the bottom of it. "Spill it! How do you two know each other?" he demanded. He couldn't help it, he almost felt jealous of the weird bond these two males had that only he seemed to realise. Why he felt jealous he couldn't understand, but he sure as hell wasn't going to let it lie.

Zell forced a smile onto his face. "Well..."

Axel interjected: "He's my ex-boyfriend"
