(This is what happened to Namine And Roxas)

Namine and Roxas left Leon's car and decided to walk up to the beach. It was getting late, but the two didn't really care. They were happy that their school would be closed for the time being and the fact that they were together.

"So, are you gonna do Yearbook Committee again this year?" Roxas tried making conversation as the other blond sat beside him on the beach sand. They could hear the sounds of the crashing waves and the night's bugs crawling and singing. "I'm not sure. I really wanted to try art, you know-just for my Sophomore year." Namine replied.

"Thats good. I never really like drawing or painting." Roxas admitted. "I love it! Its like writing, except with a more vivid outlook...maybe I could show you some sketches." Namine suggested. "That'd be cool. What do you like to sketch, anyway?" Roxas asked. "Um, anything practically. Something that makes me feel like I should draw it and sometimes it gives me inspiration. I guess thats why I like drawing so much." Namine thoughtfully said. Roxas admired her little philosophy. He thought she looked so pretty in her white dress and blue sandals. Like an angel.

"Roxas? You think we should've went to that party?" Namine curiously asked the spiky blond boy.

"When I'm older, maybe I'd start liking those parties...but I really didn't want to go, honestly." Roxas found himself saying. "You mean when your like Cloud and Leon's age? Thats not too far. I can't imagine myself at a party like that." Namine frowned. "Maybe I won't be like them, but that doesn't mean I won't try a party." Roxas defended himself. "Ooh? Are you just saying that to be...cool?" Namine teased with a serious tone in her voice. "No! C'mon Nami, I'm not like that. Is it wrong to try something-wild and fun!" Roxas didn't smile. "No. But I think you try to be rushing into things, like growing up and going to parties. Before I met you and Kairi, I thought you were just the little brother of a party player and I didn't think about your personality. I just thought you were immature. Well, your brother for that matter." Namine said. "I'm not like Cloud. Or Sora! Maybe a bit like Sora...but I'm still me. What about you? Don't tell me you haven't got into peer pressure?" Roxas asked. "Yeah, I admit that. So do you still like those parties? I mean, I don't mind." Namine quietly replied. "Well I'm just not much of a party person like Yuffie and them. But I bet I'm more up for it then you are." Roxas teased. "Its not my fault that I care what happens to me, Roxas." Namine pouted. "I know. C'mon, I should take you home." Roxas volunteered as he started to get up off the sand. "Okay. My aunt won't mind if we crash in." Namine smiled. "I didn't know you lived with your aunt." Roxas said. "Oh? Well I never met my parents, I think they died or something when I was a baby." Namine sadly stated.

"I never knew! My dad died when Sora and me were born too. I never met him, but Cloud sure misses him." Roxas said. "Maybe thats why hes such a wild kid, huh? He must miss your father." Namine said. "Okay, Miss Psychologist, lets get going." Roxas took her hand and they strolled down the trek up back to the beach housing neighborhoods. Roxas seemed oblivious to the way Namine blushed. No boy had ever held her hand, well-not since kindergarten.

"You know what, Roxas?" Namine asked quietly. Roxas looked down at her and grinned, "Yeah?"

"I take that back. I should've never underestimated you as Cloud's stupid little brother. I owe you and Sora an apology." Namine said. "No problem. Sometimes I think that he's my stupid older brother-and I've never really thought of being his little brother and the way people look at me. Thanks, Namine." Roxas kept his smile placed on his face. "I'm just judge-mental. Maybe I am turning out to be just as gossiping as Selphie!" Namine whined. Roxas laughed, "Don't worry...you're far from being like Selphie. Besides, we're friends now and thats all in the past."

Without giving Roxas a warning, she stopped and hugged him. "But I was stupid to think you were..." she couldn't find the right words to describe it and him. "Jerky? Yeah I am a jerk." Roxas finished her sentence.

"If you were, I wouldn't let you walk me home in the middle of the night, Roxas." Namine giggled as she let go of him. She had a point, who goes out of the house on a Tuesday night with just some boy that you think you have a crush on and then again you can't trust him because he's still young and he's still a boy? But somehow, Namine trusted Roxas as if she knew him as long as Kairi knew Sora.

Cloud called Sora after the two had eaten their pizza and cookies, and they were watching some old cartoons together on Sora's mother's couch. "Sora you need to put a shirt on..." Kairi mentioned after stuffing hot cheetos in her mouth.

She quickly licked her fingers to wipe off the red mess. "Why? Its hot." Sora yawned. "Well its like almost midnight and what if your brothers get home, they'd think we were doing something." Kairi explained. "You have a point." Sora hopped off the couch and headed into the laundry room to pick out one of his clean shirts. He ended up choosing a white one and a red one. "Which one makes me look cooler?" Sora jokingly asked as he made it towards the living room. "THEY LOOK THE SAME TO ME, S-SORAA!" Kairi growled. "Gees. I just wanted to know, Kai." Sora laughed. "The red one looks new." Kairi commented. "Then the red one it is!" Sora put the shirt on his body.

"What do you want to do? Its midnight." He asked as he lazily plopped beside her on the couch. "I dunno. Lets go out, everybody else is." Kairi suggested. Did she just say 'go out'?

"What...huh?" Sora asked, unsure how to ask her about what she had just said.

"Yeah, why should we just stay here while Roxas is doing God knows what with Namine, and Clouds out with his buds. I know...STARBUCKS!" Kairi squealed. Sora's panic went away. 'God I need to stop acting like a sap around Kairi' He mentally scolded himself.

"Are they even open, Kai?" He asked. "I know a 24 hours one by the docks, c'mon lets go before anyone gets home." Kairi shot up from her seat. "Seriously? Hey wait, watch out for the lamp its-" Sora cried. Kairi cried and shrieked even louder. She had unfortunately got up too quickly without noticing the lamp and it had been knocked down by the side of her lower thighs (or leg). She screamed in pain and after 3 seconds of realizing what had happened, she moved her leg away from the burning light bulb. She checked her leg and saw the dead skin peel off of her leg, but it was only a small strip. The surrounding parts of the unburnt skin was turning purple and bruised up brown, and inside the skin was a pure white. She had gotten burnt. "Sora!" she squealed. "Sit down, Kai." Sora helped her.

"Omigod, my leg looks like it has a huge hickie on it." Kairi laughed. Hickie? How could she be laughing at a time like this? Her skin had been teared off. Sora found himself smiling. "Here, let me check on it." Sora volunteered. She let him pull up the skirt of her dress and examine the wound. "You'll need some Neosporin® , Kairi." He said after checking up on the oozing skin. It tickled at his fingers and it made Kairi smile. "Okay, Doctor Sora! But I really want a vanilla bean frappuccino." Kairi said. "Let me get a bandage and we'll go." Sora went to the downstairs bathroom and fumbled around with the first aid kit to find a big enough bandage. He carefully placed it on her skin and helped her back up. Kairi pulled down her skirt and fixed her dress. "Now can we go?" She asked.

Slipping on his shoes, Sora followed Kairi as they walked down the neighborhood to Starbucks. They were used to sneaking out of the house way past bedtime and having time of their lives. And Kairi's parents had never caught her doing bad.

Sora bought Kairi a drink, and he himself had a mocha chocolate drink with whipped cream. He made Kairi laugh when the cream got stuck on his upper lip without his knowing. "We should be sleeping in bed instead of being here, you know that Sora?" Kairi laughed as she sipped her drink. "You know how wrong that sounded, KaiKai?" Sora gave a wink. "In your dreams, Sora! God, remember when we were thirteen and we used to go here all the time with Cloud and Tifa. He had a huge crush on her." Kairi laughed. "That was like two years ago, Kairi. Not so long ago. I hear Cloud and them are sleeping over at Tifa's." Sora reminded. "You think Cloud and Tifa are meant to be?" Kairi thoughtfully asked. "I guess so. Aerith used to like Cloud, but that didn't work out because he still had feelings for Tifa. Hes dumb, but he kind of reminds me of someone." Sora stated about himself. Why was he so scared to tell Kairi that he was so love drunk over her? Everytime they spoke, he noticed the way she talked, moved her lips, and the way her fragile body structure complimented her figure. They were just best friends, then again. How can you tell someone that you shared all your dreams and fears with and tell them you want them to let you kiss them when you had no idea if they felt the same? Obviously Kairi didn't want him. He remembered being jealous when she went out with an eighth grader in the seventh grade. His name was Meeko, and he was Mimi Hollowa's older brother. Mimi was considered a cute girl slash popular cheerleader, in Riku's book. God, he wished he could've just kicked Meeko in the face then in the same time smile at Mimi as if nothing happened. Then again, if he liked Mimi why did he care for Kairi like that? That was the beginning of his love sprung over his best friend. At first he thought he just was thinking like a boy to think Kairi was sweet, cute, and everything...but now his feelings were growing stronger. He cared for her more than a best friend. Too bad he's so naïve to know that she wanted him just as badly.

"Who? Riku? Riku never hesitates in telling a girl his feelings. Hes pretty straight forward." Kairi joked.

"Its no one." Sora quietly answered. "Alrightie, Sora. Maybe we can get the medicine for my leg." Kairi said as she took his collar and helped him up. He liked it when she commanded him to do things.

The next morning, Namine found herself in Roxas' bedroom, sleeping on the windowsill cushions. The window was slightly open, but somehow not wide enough to let her fall off down outside to the tree. She remembered what happened last night:

She and Roxas decided not to get in trouble and disturb her aunt and headed to his house instead. Nobody seemed to be home at the time, so Roxas had to help her climb his window and crack it open with a twig, They succeeded, obviously. Namine looked around the dark colored cologne smelling room and found Roxas in his boxers and T-shirt, sleeping like a baby. She laughed at how thoughtful he was to give her pillows and blankets to sleep on the windowsill cushions, it was actually quite nice of him to know how she thought about sleeping in other people's beds. Especially boys' beds, for that matter. She got up and watched him sleep peacefully, he didn't even snore, he just softly whispered in his sleep. She leaned in and touched his hand in curiosity. He unconsciously held it and murmured and moaned in his slumber. She giggled softly. "Huh, where am I?" He stirred in the bed. She gasped and tried to hide, but his bright ice blue eyes stared sleepily into her soft eyes. "We hung out late last night. I need to get home, Roxas. My aunt might think I snuck out or something." Namine explained. "I heard Kairi and Sora get home last night...I'm sorry. You probably never ever get out of your house late at night." Roxas apologized. "Don't be, you made last night really cool. I mean, I would've never been caught dead doing that without you." Namine grinned prettily. "Lets go check on Sora and Kairi." Roxas suggested, and Namine agreed. The blonds headed into Sora's room and found the two sleeping on the foot side of the bed, in each other's arms. Sora was holding Kairi on top and Kairi was resting her drooling head over his chest. "Aw, they seem so peaceful together." Namine blushed for her friends. Roxas grew uncomfortable watching his brother and took Namine's hand, "Lets not wake them up." He told her.

"Should we tell them they slept in the same bed?" Namine asked with a smirk on her face. "Nah, lets not embarrass Sora as much as Cloud already does." Roxas grinned back. They closed the door and let the boy and girl sleep.

Kairi woke up sleepily, to feel the warm impact of Sora. WAIT, WHAT? SORA? She tried to get off of him, but he held her tightly by the waist. "Waffles and Paupau fruit..." she heard him mutter in his dream. "Sora? Wake up please." Kairi groggily told him. He opened his sleepily, and then starred at the beautiful teenage girl on top of him.

"Oh snap!" He pulled her off of him and sat up scratching his head. "What happened last night?" He asked in a worried voice. "Nothing. We came home, saw Roxas sneak in with Namine, and I fell asleep on your bed...with you."

Kairi slowly stated. "Oh. Good thing my mom didn't come home early or anything...I'm gonna check the news to see if the school is gonna get sued or something." Sora quickly got up and ran to the bathroom. He couldn't face Kairi.

Kairi on the other hand, felt completely comfortable. She walked downstairs and saw Roxas and Namine watching the morning TV on the couch. "Hey, guys. Have fun last night?" she asked. "Um, yeah. We went to the park and then Cloud found us, but we ditched the party and went to the beach instead." Namine explained. "Lucky! I got burnt on my leg and Sora got burnt on his hand." Kairi giggled. Roxas raised an eyebrow, "Oh look they have a news report on our school!"

THE TELEVISION:

"Hi my name is Lexis Dover and I am reporting live at Destiny High School here in the center of the islands. Apparently, this school has failed to meet regulations and fire hazard by their old pipes and the school has evacuated. No signs kids pranking or fuming around with the pipes has been involved by these chemicals, but the school is working on making sure the standards a safe enough for students to head back to their normal classes. School is changed to Thursday, normal timing and no minimum releases. For more information, officers suggest that you call the local health department or your school district number and 555-1278 or www.destinylivenews.web

I am Lexis Dover and I am out!"

"That Lexis Dover is hot!" Kairi, Namine, and Roxas heard a boy's voice. It was Sora.

"And you're so not, Sora." Roxas elbowed Namine, lightly. "Hehe, Roxas is so right." Kairi grinned.

"Hey, so wheres Cloud? I thought he'd be home to make us some breakfast." Sora said, with a grumbling stomache.

"He texted me last night, I think they slept at Tifa's." Roxas explained. "Oh, now I remember." Sora scratched his head. "Roxas, my aunt might be really worried if she doesn't find me in the house. She wakes up around this time, so maybe I should go." Namine interrupted. "Okay, sorry again...about taking you out too late." Roxas apologized.

"No, biggie. Wanna walk me home?" asked Namine. "SURE!" Roxas jumped up and headed to the front door to get his skateboard. Sora just rolled his eyes, "I hope Principal Dyla really does get fired." Kairi giggled.

"I'm gonna take a shower," now Kairi had caught Sora's attention, "Care to join?" She seductively asked.

"Huh...me...you...?" Sora stood mesmerized. Kairi only burst into laughter. "Gotchya! No way in hell would I let you see me in the shower, Sora." Kairi told him. "How bout heaven?" Sora asked mischieviously. "Does heaven exist?"

Kairi asked as she came to the small closet where Sora's mother kept the towels. "A little bit of heaven is all I need." Sora mumbled as he walked away from Kairi to sneak some ice crema in the fridge. He needed lots of sugar to drown his depression. Over what, you may ask? Kairi was making him go loco!

Meanwhile, back at Tifa's big house, Yuffie was helping Olette make pancakes and waffles (since Leon had a phobia over pancakes-he would never touch them for some reason, only waffles). "Those rascals need to wake up, dammit!"

Yuffie said as she tried attempting to put the eggs on a plate. "I wanted to ask, is my sister with Cloud?" Olette asked.

"Um...I'm not sure, Omelette!" Yuffie teased. What should she say? Olette constantly teased her older sister about the who Cloud love circles, but Tifa gradually had denied it. Now, the two were caught making out the other night. And what if they were just drunk, then Yuffie would be wrong and everyone would say she was gossiping, and of course she hated being put down. She'd rather let that damn Squall pick on her then Cloud and Tifa, or even Aerith for that matter. "I saw him go in her room. Usually, she'd just get all flirtacious and then make him go away to Leon or something...but last night he was actually holding her. Was I dreaming?" Olette seemed confused.

"Um..." Yuffie trailed off. Olette could really bring in a lot of questions. "So I heard you liked a boy named Pence?" asked Yuffie, changing the subject. "Hell no! Pence is so fat, I can't believe you'd actually think I'd like him, I have better taste than that...Hayner is ever cuter than Roxas-OOPS! You weren't supposed to hear that. Rewind, rewind!"

Olette squealed. "Don't worry. I'll keep that as a dirty little secret." Yuffie chuckled.

Leon woke up to find Aerith sleeping on Tifa's parents' bed, and he on the floor. 'So we didn't do anything last night, huh?' He reassured himself. He got up from the floor and sat next to Aerith. "Ready to get home? Yuffie's parents are gonna kill me if I don't get her home, and your dad might get mad too." Leon whispered. He knew she was awake.

"Screw Yuffie. I'll just call my dad and tell him I'm gonna spend another night with Tifa again. He doesn't care, really." Aerith yawned, and tried to sit up. "I still have to get Yuffie home. And I think Cloud needs to get home too, and it'll be easy 'cause I have to take Kairi back to my aunt's anyway. I'm the personal driver, nowadays." Leon sighed.

Aerith grabbed his hands and held it in hers, "Clouds gonna get a motorcycle for his seventeenth birthday. Then me and you won't have to pick up him and Tifa all the time. And my dad promised me that Jaguar." She pulled her boyfriend in closer, and he gave her a sweet and innocent kiss. "Your dad will be so pissed to find me in bed with you, Aeri." He laughed at himself. "It makes everything more naughtier. You know my dad just thinks we're friends?" Aerith rubbed his chest with her little hands. "You keep telling me he could care less about your boyfriends, but I've known your dad since ninth grade...he probably thinks I'm gay or something for not being with you." whined Leon, trying to resist his girlfriend. "Shut up and kiss me, you're so not gay." Aerith giggled. "As you wish." Leon began stroking her lovely hair and kissing the bottom of her lips. She licked his lips eagerly as to say 'Open up, Leon!' and he barely inched his lips apart when Aerith slipped her slick tongue inside. They played with eachother until they heard a knock at the door. "Rise and shine, Sweeties! Breakfasts ready-and I so don't wanna walk up in on Cloud and Tifa!" Yuffie's voice rang from outside. "Damn. Do we always have to get interrupted by Yuffie?" Leon sighed.

"Leon, she's your second cousin, just be nice." Aerith teased. "She's a brat, Aerith." Leon tickled her by holding her waist gently. "Enough! I'm starved, Leon...and if you want more of me then you'd better do as I say." Aerith slipped off the blankets and hopped out of the bed. "Follow me, Squall..." Aerith added in a purr. She only purred his first name like that when she meant it. "Coming, Air!" Leon obeyed.

Tifa woke up and found Cloud snoring softly against her hair. Her face was around his chest and she was holding him like a huge teddy bear. "Cloudie?" she asked. "I'm still sleepy, five more minutes." Cloud kissed her forehead.

"Oh, you retard, my parents are gonna be home by lunch. You and Leon have to leave now, and Yuffie too. She might find my diary and post it online." Tifa teased. "Can I read it, then? I want to know what goes on in that little head of yours..." Cloud sarcastically said in a sleepy tone. "Cloud, I'm way too strong to let anyone take my diary." Tifa whined. "Tiffy, you're a girl. And remember, I'm stronger." Cloud laughed. "I let you sleep with me and now all you do is say you're stronger, psh yeah. I still run faster." Tifa smiled. "What time is it?" Cloud asked groggily. Tifa turned her head and checked the alarm clock, "Almost ten." she replied. "What the hell! I gotta go, Tifa. My mom might get home early and I still haven't checked up on my brothers." He pushed his girlfriend gently over to the side of the bed and slipped his jeans back on. He remembered that last night it was too hot to wear them. "You're going now?" Tifa pouted. "I'll call you, or better-you can call me tonight." Cloud kissed her on the cheek and found his sneakers by the dresser. He opened the door and added in, "Hurry and get dressed...I think Yuffie made breakfast." Tifa sighed and remembered that her little sister Olette would be awake. "Oh crap, whats she gonna say when Cloud walks out of my room?" She hurriedly slipped on a sweater to cover her revealing top, and ran downstairs to find her friends.

The school was back in session by Thursday, and Kairi and Sora were in English, passing notes. The teacher was a substitute named Mrs. Garth, so they didn't necessarily have to pay attention. Sora was the one who kept the conversation going on and on.

Lets hang out tonight. -Sora

I might be busy. But I'll try to make it, what do you want to do? -Kairi

Fine, be that way. I wanted to take you to the amusement park. And I was hoping Yuna and Tidus would come too. Roxas has to do an after school project, and Namine got in trouble by her aunt. So I was wondering, happy? -Sora

I can barely read your writing Sora. We'll talk at lunch. Mkay? -Kairi

Okay. Oh and I think Renee is coming 2, so don't bite her, please!- Sora

What why the heck are you inviting Renee?-Kairi

Because she's pretty, duh. Ttyl, I think Mrs. Garth almost saw you pass that last note- Sora

Kairi growled to herself. And she was angry at that Renee girl too. Renee Soshoko was a cheerleader and used to be one of Kairi's "in" friends at a sixth grade clique. Kairi immediately started hating the girl after Renee spreaded rumors that Kairi was an ugly whore, and that Namine was a witch. The guys however, seemed to like Renee despite all of her flaws. Kairi didn't want to deal with a weirdo girl like Renee, but she definetely didn't want to leave Sora alone with her. Too many girls liked Sora as an eyecandy and even more. Renee, the cheerleader, was one of them.

In the lunch line, Selphie came up to Kairi. "Hey, have you seen Tidus? I am soo angry!" Selphie squeaked.

"Why, what happened?" Kairi asked. "He and Yuna are going to some amusement park with Sora and my friend Renee." Selphie explained unhappily. "Really? Oh yeah, Sora told me about that. I guess I'm invited too." Kairi felt bad for Selphie, who obviously had a crush on the quiet Tidus. "At cheer practices, Renee always talks about Sora. I know you hate her, but she really thinks that you must've kept Sora out of your pants for a really long time to make him go ga-ga over you!" Selphie laughed. "WAH?" Kairi blushed in confusement. "You heard me, isn't it obvious? Almost all the freshmen girls like Sora. Either him, or Roxas. And the older guys are already taken...so it doesn't matter." Selphie continued to dreamily say. Kairi collected her casserole and french fries while Selphie went on, "Don't worry, KaiKai! They're only rumors. Renee can suck up on her big nose for all Sora cares."

Kairi came to the usual table, the juniors were somewhere outside by the fountain (because they thought sitting with the "kids" may put down their ego), but what she saw made her almost break down. Renee was sitting next to Sora, giggling and laughing along with the other girls and guys. ' Thought everyone hated Renee?' Kairi asked herself.

"Oh hey, Kairi!" Sora called his best friend. Renee turned around to see the brownish redhead.

"Oh, hello...what is she doing here, Sora?" Renee glared at Kairi as she stated this.

"Oh c'mon, Kairi always sits here with us." Riku said.

"No, its okay. I'm gonna find-I'm gonna go." Kairi walked away with her tray and tried to hold back the tears.

She made it outside, when she felt hands touching her shoulder.

"Kairi, why are you crying?" It was her older cousin, Leon. The tears seemed to stream down her face, "Um...I got an F in biology." Kairi lied. "Leon, I know that look..." Kairi could hear Aerith's sweet voice. "Sit with us, and tell me what happened, alright Cous?" Leon helped her make the way down to the fountain. Cloud stared down at Kairi in shock. He had never seen his little brother's best friend cry before. "What happened, Sweetie?" Tifa and Yuffie said in unison. "She didn't fail biology, thats a fact." Aerith said in a murmur. "I really don't want to talk about it." Kairi wiped away the tears. She felt like her heart was empty, with no emotion or feeling. Was this the feeling of being heartbroken? She had only felt it once before with her ex, Michaelangelo. He cheated on her in the eighth grade with...Renee, the same girl who sat by Sora inside the cafeteria only a couple yards away. Renee had brought all the pain back. A worser pain than being rejected by Meeko, Mimi's brother.

Aha! Poor Kairi, though. She needs to suck up and get a real man-that is if Sora will be a man. Hope it wasn't long or anything and you enjoyed it. If it was confusing, deal with me. I'm trying to finish this story up. I need suggestions! Do you guys want more of Yuna and Tiddie-bear? Hehe. Tiddie-bear sounds scrumptious to say.

Bye bye-EssTelle
