The Moon and The Star

Written By: x-Kuroi Neko-x

"Sometimes they come together
Sometimes each one alone
Moon sad under a starless sky
Star crying in a moonless night"

We all know, the next chapter is up!


"Ven, how come you didn't tell your best friend of all people?" Riku pouted.

"I'm not going out with her, if I was then I'd be more proud of it wouldn't I?" Ven snapped back.

"So you admitted! You really do like Leiko!" Wakka laughed.

"Ummm…uhhh…" Ven was lost for words; his pink face was now as red as a cherry. Leiko only smacked her forehad and cursed.

"Ven, is this true?" Olette asked.

"This is gonna be a long day…" Kuro sighed as a faint smile appeared on her face.


The lunch bell had just rung and Kisho and Kuro were happy the torture had ended. As for Kisho's punishment he got a one really hard punch on the cheek from Leiko.

Fourth period had just started and it was math class, and today's lesson was on measurement; Kuro's worst subject.

"Lei, I don't get any of this!" Kuro whispered.

"You think I do! I failed this shit for more than 6 years!" Leiko whispered back, "Ask Kisho, he probably might know a thing or two."

"Me asking him! Are you crazy!" Kuro said a little too loudly causing a chain of shushes from the other students.

"How about I help you," someone said from the left side of Kuro.

"Seifer, what do you want?" she asked dryly.

"Well, I know was a jerk at lunch. So I was thinking, can we please start over?" he begged with puppy dog eyes that only a few girls could resist.

"Fine! I need help with this anyway…" Kuro sighed in defeat rolling her eyes.

"Thank you!" Seifer smiled, "See, in this question you have to multiply x with the height before you calculate this, to get the solution," he pointed out (A/N: I just made up something random because I truely suck at math! Like Leiko, I failed math every time XD).

"Ohh…I see…" Kuro smiled, she finally was starting to understand it now.

From the back Kisho could see it all, "Grr…what am I getting so worked up for? Seifer can have her for all I care. She's nothing like her" he thought.

Soon the bell rang signaling the students to go to their next class. For Kuro it was gym class. She walked with Leiko towards the girls' change room where she would change into her gym attire.

When Kuro finished changing, she was wearing a grey t-shirt with the school logo and black shorts that way were above her knees.

"Umm…do the shorts have to be this high?" Kuro complained.

"Yeah, I agree with Kuro," Joannu said in her attempt to make her shorts seem longer.

"You and Kurori are right... I suddenly feel like a 5 dollar whore you find at the 99 cent store corner... " Leiko whinned and flipped a guy off. (A/n: I wonder is Kurori is written with y or i...)

"So my nickname is 'Kurori' now?" Kuro questioned raising an eye brow.

"Don't worry Kisho has a lot of nicknames too!" Kairi laughed, "Lei and Yuffie always do this when they think your original name doesn't suite you."

"Who's Yuffie?" Kuro asked.

"Yuffie's a senior. She's kind of like an older sister type to me, Kisho and Leiko," Joannu replied.

"And if you're still wondering about the nicknames, I dubbed Kisho, Kane and Yuffie calls him Kishiri!" Leiko laughed.

"Kishiri?" Kuro thought she was going to die of laughter, until Joannu said they were going to get in trouble if they were late for Mr.Takeru's class.

Gym class in Twilight High was co-ed and unfortunately for Kuro all her sophomore buddies were there and are probably going to make fun of her and Kisho one way or another.

"Okay class, cross country will be starting soon, so I want you to run laps around the football field until class is over," The teacher yelled.

The class groaned and began running laps as soon as the teacher blew the whistle. When Kuro was walking instead, she was with Joannu and Leiko, while her guy friends were up front (A/N: Roxas, Sora, and Ventus) .

"So Kuro, you never told us who you roommate was," Joannu said looking at blonde girl.

"Yeah Kurori, tell us. Is it a hot guy, it better be..." Leiko said with bright sangria eyes.

"Can you please drop the nickname?" Kuro asked blushing from the name.

"Fine, fine! Just tell us who it is though!" Leiko said.

"My roommate… it's… umm…" Kuro stalled, "Think Kuro! Think! You'll never live it down if they find out its their twin!" she thought, "It's a senior," Kuro lied.

"Really? What's his name?" Leiko asked, still thinking it was guy.

"I-I don't remember! She doesn't talk that much!" Kuro.

"Aww... A girl...?!" Joannu and Leiko pouted in defeat.

In front Roxas, Sora, and Ven were having a similar conversation.

"So who is he?" Ven asked.

"If I say it's Kuro, I know I'm never gonna live it down! That's a fact!" Kisho thought, "Uh, it's a new kid in ninth grade," he lied, "These two are to stupid/hyper to ask for the details. Score 1 for Kisho!"

"Oh really?" Ven wondered, "What's his name?"

"DAMN!" he yelled at himself, "You probably don't know him!" Kisho laughed nervously.

"Oh okay," Sora said, with astill wondering look on his face. Kisho just sighed in relief.

Class ended with all the students lying down on the ground and panting for air, or leaning on a wall and panting for air. But hey! walking takes energy!

Kuro quickly changed clothes and headed to her most favorite class ever; art (A/N: I know Marie likes to draw so I guess its cool with her, right?)

She took her seat at the back of the class and sighed in relief, "Yes, one class with out him!"

Soon the door creeked open, "Hi?" Kisho greeted nervously at the front of the class.

"DAMN IT!" Kuro cussed silently in her thoughts.

"Mr.Yamaguchi, late again! Please take the empty seat beside the new girl and don't make anymore interruptions!" the teacher sighed.

Kisho took his seat and glared at Kuro along the way. Kuro complimented this gesture by doing the same.

"Okay class, for today's lesson you must sketch yourself doing your favorite hobby," the teacher instructed, "Begin!"

Kuro took the piece of paper in front of her and began to draw. It was starting to shape up in to a portrait of her drawing. The picture her drawing drew was an unfinished sketch of the boy in her childhood, but you couldn't really notice it from a far.

Kuro was somewhat proud of what she drew. Since she finished early, she decided to peek over to see what Kisho was drawing. It was a picture of him skateboarding. Kisho to admit he was pretty good at sketching.

Kisho also finished early and decided to look over at Kuro's sketch, "A picture of you drawing huh?"

"What! Got a problem with it Kishiri?" Kuro for some reason took it as an insult.

"Hey! Who told you that?" Kisho yelled looking around.

"Mr.Yamaguchi, please stop flirting and sit down quietly," the teacher told. A few snickers and giggles could be heard across the room as Kisho's cheeks began turning a light shade of pink.

School was over for the day and Kuro went over to her locker to grab some books for tonight's homework, and boy did she have a lot of text books. When Kuro closed her locker, she suddenly bumped into someone.

"Sorry! Here let me help you!" a boy apologized.

Kuro didn't really take notice to see who it was and continued to pick up her books, andshe accidentally touched the boy's hand on the last book. Kuro's cheeks began blushing, she looked up to see his face, "You…" she glared.

"At least hold off on the arguments until after I help you," Kisho smiled.

Kuro didn't know why, but she liked his smile, it seemed so familiar…

"Fine!" she agreed turning her face the other way so he wouldn't see her blushing.

Kisho suggested he would carry half her books so it would be easier for her. On the way to the dormitory, there was an awkward silence between them, but Kisho tried to break it.

"Soo…I was wondering…" he said as a blush crept on to his cheeks, "If we could, you know… start ov–" Kisho was cut off.

"Hey you love birds, wait up!" Olette yelled with Joannu who was pulling Leiko, causing Kuro and Kisho to jump a little.

Kuro quickly looked at Kisho, "Quick! Gimme my books and get to the room before I do, so they don't suspect anything!" Kisho gave a quick nod and handed her books over before running off.

"Hey Kuro, wasn't that Kane just now?" Leiko wondered as the three girls caught up to her. Without her finishing the small jolly rancher she was eating.

"NO! I-I mean, no way he would wanna walk with me! I mean the guy's a complete dope!" Kuro lied nervously.

"Oh okay. Hey, I got an idea! Why don't we see Kuro's room?" Joannu leaped.

"Yeah!" Leiko and Olette agreed running off.

"No, you can't-" but the other girls were already to far ahead to hear Kuro.

When they got to the room Kuro tried to make excuses.

"But the room's messy!"

"You should see Sora and Hayner's room if you want messy." Joannu laughed.

"Fine!" Kuro gave up, "HEAR THAT, WE'RE GOING INSIDE THE ROOM!" she yelled.

Inside Kisho was panicking to find a hiding place. He could jump out the window, but they were in the fifth floor. "Crap! Where am I gonna hide!" Kisho thought.

"WE ARE OPENING THE DOOR NOW!" Kuro yelled, "I hope you found a hiding place or were screwed!"

Kisho chose a random hiding place and literally jumped the closet. When Kuro went in she began frantically looking around the place to make sure Kisho was well hidden. Kisho opened her closet to see Kisho there waving at her.

"What are you doing here! Couldn't you hide in your own closet!" she whispered fiercely. Kisho was about to answer until Leiko began talking.

"Kuro, are you okay?" Leiko asked raising an eye brow.

Kuro quickly closed the closet, "Oww!" Kisho yelped.

"What was that?" Joannu asked, looking around.

"Umm…Oww! I kind of closed the closet on my finger! Don't worry, I'm okay!" Kuro laughed nervously pretending her finger was injured.

"Well anyways, come shopping with us in the mall at Friday!" Olette said. "Aww man!" Leiko whinned.

"Sure! Okay, bye! I'm busy so see you tomorrow!" Kuro shoved her friends out the door and sighed, "That was too close…"

"Tell me about it!" Kisho laughed as he was trying to untangle himself from the clothes and bags.

Kuro fell on her bed and began laughing along with Kisho.
