Author's Note: ...:Cough: Okay, so I take bloody forever to update. See, THIS is why I don't do chapter fics...:Sighs: Anywho, I'd like to make a correction: It's RyaneNight92, not NightRyane92. So sorry!!!! And to think I'm known for my spelling...ugh. And yes, most of the characters are very OOC... I haven't finished... uhm, any, of these games. Well, FF7 and FF8 I've pretty much finished, and I'm almost done with KH2... but nevertheless, I've forgotten most of their characters; properly, that is. As they should be. :Laughs sheepishly: And thank you again, RyaneNight92. The name Kaito apparently means Kite, which I also like... though not so much... heh. Depending on the spelling, i can mean something else, too, apparently. How... unsurprising.

I run on reviews; the more reviews, the faster (and probably better...) the updates:D Heeheehee.

"Repeat that." Everyone turned, surprised, at Leon's harsh voice. Sora, confused, repeated, "Although she always does seem to know what I'm thinking and about to say before even I do?"

Leon leaned back slightly, eyes narrowing as he watched Sora. Sora, not completely used to being on the receiving ends of Leon's 'looks', 'meeped' and promptly hid behind Riku, who glared at Leon. "Now what's your problem?!" Riku asked angrily. He did not like people glaring at his Sora; not in the least bit, as Leon knew!

Leon shifted his gaze to Riku, arching an eyebrow, suddenly relaxing. "She..." He paused, unsure of how to continue. "You wouldn't understand." He finally finished, frowning faintly. Now Cloud joined in, looking puzzled. "Leon, what are you talking about? You know us of all people could probably understand it." He said quietly, coaxingly. Axel completely ruined the affect by loudly exclaiming, "Yeah! Come on, were all freaks here! We could understand it!" He grinned brightly at the annoyed brunet, who finally gave a half-nod.

"But not now." Was all he said, shaking his head and reclining into the chair. Despite everyone's exclamations, he stubbornly refused to continue. Finally Cloud cut them all off, saying firmly that they all knew he was good for his word, and if he didn't want to tell them now, then he had a good reason. With much grumbling, they all agreed reluctantly.

The next day at school was an interesting one. Everyone knew of the bet, even if they didn't read the school newspaper, and more girls then usual were looking at Roxas and flirting... And Roxas didn't like flirting unless he was in the mood for it. At lunch he finally sat down after slamming his bag down on his seat, and growling, "You'd think that they'd be a little less excited about this! It's just a bet!"

"Yes, but everyone knows you don't like keeping a girlfriend for a long time." Pointed out Riku, shrugging. Roxas groaned, and dragged out his list of girls, asked Leon, "So, where do I start?"

Leon arched an eyebrow, saying calmly, "At the beginning." Roxas looked at the paper, and the paper attached, and groaned, cradling his head in his hands. "Dammit."

The next two weeks were hell. He went down the list, after carefully studying a girl and gathering information, slowly, dismissing them easily. They all tried to pretend they were multi talented – and failed horribly. "Honestly, you'd think if a girl was great with plants that she wouldn't try and pretend she was a good singer! Ugh, I think I actually felt my ears bleed a little!" Sora, eyes wide, quickly leaned over, peering inside Roxas's ear, before grinning and sitting back, looking relieved. "Nope, your ears are blood-free!" He exclaimed happily, beaming as he dug into his lunch. Roxas looked at his twin with an odd look of disbelief, while the rest of the table cracked up laughing. Cloud finally paused, looking around, before commenting, "Anyone seen Leon today? He has my science class, and I need some help with my homework."

For indeed, the great Leon was missing form their table. They always ate together; it was one of their rules of the group... so where was he?

Tifa, passing the table on her way to her own, giggled at Sora's remark. "Maybe you should check the Organization's table." She supplied, smiling secretively before continuing on. Everyone looked at each other, frowning, confused. Leon? At the Organization's table?

The Organization was a group of people who always wore these black cloaks over whatever they wore. They were all very clear on their dislikes, which generally included people who showed a great deal of emotion – people such as Sora, for example. Which he thought, privately, made no sense, since there was a kid named Demyx in their group who got along great with Sora... he sometimes wondered if they even knew why they were such a group.

Roxas and Axel looked at each other, eyes wide. Both had been a part of the Organization once, but had left. Roxas, because Sora pleaded with him, and Axel, because Roxas left.

Striding over to the table, Roxas and Axel saw Leon conversing with the Organization. Apparently he was a 'neutral', as they were being civil, and no apparent threat or hostility was present. Or at least, visible. Demyx looked up, and grinned immediately, crying happily, "Hey look, it's Roxas and Axel!!! How've you been? What brings you to our side of the cafeteria?" Axel, smiling easily, answered, "To see what brings Leon over here." When Demyx immediately started whining that it wasn't fair he went to check up on his new friend and couldn't be bothered to come and see old friends, one of the other members – Marluxia, a guy with pink hair who liked flowers waaaaaay too much – leaned over to distract him with some comment on Demyx's music class.

Leon finished quietly before standing, shaking his head when he saw Roxas's silent question.

Why had he been talking to Zexion, of all people? Zexion was a brainiac, sure, and he excelled in whatever he promised to do, but it was rare that someone actually got him to promise something. Generally it was only Demyx he actually talked with... unless he was in a science class, of course. Or about science in general.

Roxas headed back to his table, leaving Axel talking merrily with the Organization. Sitting beside his brother, he asked directly, "So, any chance of you introducing me to this Kaito? I want to see what could capture the great Leon's interest and friendship." Sora, tilted his head slightly, considering it, before answering slowly, "Don't see why not. But you'll have to go immediately to my last class of the day after school; she takes extra time to clean up in art for some of the other students – they're all slobs, except Namine--, but not all that much. She likes to leave as soon as possible. I can probably hold her a couple of minutes, though, for you." He finished brightly, grinning. When Roxas nodded his thanks, he looked up at the sight of Leon.

"You're going to ask Kaito out?" Leon asked directly, frowning slightly and crossing his arms over his chest. "Yeah. She sounds the most interesting, and besides, I might as well." Replied the blond with a small shrug of his shoulders. Leon's lips twitched before he stilled them. All he said was, "Good luck on that. You'll need it." Roxas looked up, eyes wide at the thought of someone turning him down. That was like – that was like someone denying Riku, or Cloud, or Leon a date! It just didn't happen! Well, considering Leon didn't date they were all assuming no one would turn him down. He had the looks after all, and if he actually wanted someone, they were all completely certain he'd never be turned down.

"Why? She like girls?" Axel asked, randomly popping up behind Leon. Sora gave a yelp of surprise, pointing accusingly at Axel. "RIKU! TELL HIM HE'S FREAKY FOR DOING THAT! TELL HIM AND HIS CRAZY NINJA-ING SKILLS!"

Axel grinned at the brunet, teasingly saying, "Sora, Riku isn't going to do anything. He likes it when you cling to him." He smirked at Riku gave him a dirty look, at the same moment when Sora retorted, saying it like it was the most obvious thing, "Axel. I do not cling." At the way he said it, so high-and-mighty, everyone grinned. Sora looked down to discovered not only was he clinging to his boyfriend, but he'd also jumped into his lap. Now how had that happened...? At the look on the boy's face, everyone started laughing again save Leon. Riku, never one to pass something like this up, took the chance to begin kissing Sora, causing the boy to squeak and turn a bright red, trying to get away. He would've succeeded, too, if Riku's arms weren't around his waist.

"NINJAAAAAAAA!!!!!" Came the completely random scream from somewhere in the cafeteria. Everyone looked up to see a girl named Yuffie (crazy ninja obsessed girl...) standing on her seat, waving her arms in the air and doing a 'ninja-dance'.

Silence reigned, before almost the entire cafeteria started laughing at Yuffie's crazy antics.

Once things had settled down, and Leon had sat, he shook his head slightly. "Worse, for you. She's asexual."

Once Roxas decided on a girl, nothing could pull him away until he'd dated her.

Shit. Things just got a lot more complicated.

Author's Note: Yes, I realize asexual means that they can reproduce on their own. I've studied biology, sheesh. However, if you look it up ( dictionary . com is such a nice thing, don't you think?) you'll see it also means lacking interest or desire in sex. Which could also mean that they don't go for attraction, or don't get attracted, or anything like that. Also, please note that if in any way bash during this fic, I have nothing against that character... Like Yuffie, for example. Or poor Sora...XD Ha. But this isn't a hugely serious fic; if it was, the quality of the story would be majorly better. As it is, I just want to finish the darned thing... just to say I did, lol.
