Is Love Joy or Sorrow?
CHAP. 2 New Guy
A seventeen year-old walked in the school's halls for the first time. He was averagely tall with blue eyes, spiky brown hair, and…he seemed to like wearing over-sized shoes for some reason (A/N: teehee had to put that in there). He was already used to doing this all the time. With his mom's job, his family moved a lot. He hoped that one day their move would be permanent. For one reason, he always made good friends, and then a month or two later he would have to say goodbye to them.
He sighed, I wish we could stay in one place for once…
Finally being able to find where his locker was and unlocking it, he put all of his books on the top shelf, "I sure hope today goes well…" he closed the door to it, revealing-
"Hi there!"
"Gyah!" he jumped.
"Haha, sorry bout that. Didn't mean to scare you," a silver-haired boy apologized, "I'm Riku," he took the newcomer's hand and shook it.
"I'm…Sora."
"Well, it's nice meeting you, Sora. You're the new junior student, right?"
"Right."
"Cool. We'll be in some classes together then."
"Ya, I guess so…"
"Um…kinda nervous on your first day?" Riku could tell by Sora's voice that he was.
"Kinda."
"Ah, don't worry about it. You'll be making more friends and having fun in no time!...Except in Mr. Toji's math class. His lectures will put you to sleep."
Sora couldn't help but laugh a little, "I'll keep that in mind."
"Hey! Tidus!" Riku waved to another boy down the hall.
Tidus came over to where they were standing, "Hiya!...This the new guy?"
"Yup."
"Right on! I'm Tidus."
"I'm Sora."
"So where are you from, Sora?"
"Um…lots of places. My family moves a lot. The last place was Chicago."
"Really?" Riku pondered, "Is it tough doing that all the time?"
"Not always…you get used to it after a while."
Then, out of the corner of his eye, Sora noticed two girls walking on the other side of the hallway and stop at their lockers. He noticed the brown-haired one, who he had seen only a few minutes ago walking past him. Her friend though…she was just plain…gorgeous.
"That's Selphie and Kairi," Tidus told him, noticing he was looking in that direction.
"Who's which?" Sora turned back to face them.
"Kairi's the red-head, and oh, ya…watch out for Selphie. They call her the 'gossip queen' here. Never tell her ANYTHING."
Riku frowned, "Yeah, I've learned never to do that."
Sora smiled, "Again…I'll keep that in mind. By the way, you guys know where room 125 is? I have my first class of the day there."
Tidus responded, "Oh, we can show ya! We have the same class with ya! It's just down the hall and the first door on the right."
"So, do you like History?" Riku asked, "Cuz it not, this teacher will make it intereseting for you."
"Cool. That's good to know."
As they started walking there, Sora couldn't get his mind off of the beautiful girl name Kairi.
