Author's Notes: hehe, dun worry, the other FF characters would come up too!!! Most of their roles will help the story give more detail about Riku and Roxas' relationship, and so as how Cloud, Aerith and Tifa would actually connect to each other!!! That will start at the next chapter! Anyway, thank you for those who reviewed!!!

Apathy
Character Profile: Kazenuchi SeiferThe first ever Gray to resist the Kurasukuwa.
"Next time you hurt Takaishi Namine,"
"I will kill you."
Olette sank on the floor, just like a heart sinking in.
It's all her fault…no matter how much I try…Tsukamoto can never be mine.
Next morning…
It's December already…so I only have few months left til the deadline…
"A lot sure had become Grays!!!"
"Ya! Seifer and his basketball buddies are doing a good job!!!" said Sora.
"Most of them are guys though…we need some more girls…" said Namine, as she saw Olette pass by.
"Ah!!! Azuhime-san! Azuhime-san!!!" she called out. Olette turned around and glared at her.
"Ah? That wasn't Azuhime-san!!!" said Namine, feeling gloomy.
Hmm…what could've Tsukamoto told her… Sora thought.
There might be some hope left for getting Olette in…
"Nami…"
Sora put a hand on Namine's shoulder and smiled. "I can't do anything about it. The rest is up to you!"
"Eh?"
I don't know what Sora's getting me into, but there must be a reason…
She was peeping through Olette's classroom door, she was talking to a fellow White happily. She took a deep breath and entered in.
"Azuhime-san have you ever thought of being a Gray?" with that, she turned around with a very scary glare.
"Wahh I'm leaving!!!" Namine said, fleeing.
"This is the only thing I can think of!" Namine said, pointing a finger at Roxas.
"What is it?"
Namine grabbed him by the arm and took Roxas at the back of the school.
"There's something wrong with Azuhime?" Roxas questioned.
"She…she looked at me, as if she wants to burn me alive. I can't think of anything that made her upset! I'm sorry, but the only reason I could think of…is you…"
"Everybody says that you don't concern yourself with others…but you tend to treat me nicely…Azuhime-san must've heard this and misunderstood about us…despite the fact that I hardly know you at all…" Ooops…Bad Namine!!!
"So, please explain it to her…"
"No." he flatly said.
"Why?!"
"Why don't you say it yourself?"
"But aren't you guys going out?"
Roxas, flabbergasted, stared at her.
"Er? We're not going out!!!"
"What about what Sora said?" Namine said, remembering Sora and the pinky.
"That's what others assume."
"Really? But neither of you are making a point of denying it, right? Then also, Azuhime-san likes you…" said Namine as a vein popped on Roxas' head.
"I don't want her to hate me…so please, do tell her…"
"You really are simpleminded!!!" retorted Roxas as a flower grew on Namine's head.
"Why?!"
"It takes all sorts for you to fit in this world. No matter how hard you try, you can't do it. There are really just some people who doesn't like you. The mere idea of you and getting everyone to like you is impossible." Said Roxas.
"But isn't it also normal wanting people you like to like you back? You can, if you can communicate with them properly…"
Roxas shook his head and turned around.
"You're a hypocrite. That's what annoys me about you."
"Hiya! How did it go?" asked Sora. Namine was still fed up.
"What's with that poker face?! He's so annoying and thickheaded!!! We never talk that much, and plus the fact I can't even remember being childhood friends with him at all!!!" Namine ranted as she pulled her hair.
"ah…okay…"
Though, Tsukamoto is our enemy…
He doesn't seem to be like one…
After all…he save me quite a few times now…
Even though there were times,
We disagree with each other.
I thought, after this war, we could be friends.
But it seems I need to work more on that.
"Well…so what I wanted to say is…I don't know why you're angry at me…it would be nice to get a comment from you…" Namine nervously explained as she played with her fingers. But instead, Olette turned around, her back facing her.
"About Tsukamoto and I, are you taking it seriously?! There's nothing between us! We're just friends when we were younger even if, I don't remember!" said Namine.
"Annoying…" Olette muttered.
"What?" Olette turned around with a very angry look at her face.
"I SAID YOU ARE ANNOYING!!! BY YOUR FACE, HEARING YOUR VOICE!!! IT MAKES ME SICK!!! GET OUT!!! GET OUT OF MY SIGHT NOW!!! AND DON'T LET ME SEE YOUR FACE AGAIN!!!" Olette fumed, attracting or should we say, distracting her fellow Whites and some of her admirers.
Namine got teary-eyed. "I—I'm sorry!!!" and she ran.
"Eh?! Is that Azuhime-san for real?!"
Sora, who was watching from afar, grinned. Olette, has fallen.
Gloomy Namine was on the rooftop and was leaning herself on the railings.
"Azuhime-san hates me…" she told herself.
I must've done something wrong, but never noticed it…
"Hey," Namine looked beside her to see Olette.
"Do you have something you love so much that you would do anything for it? Even by putting someone in peril?" she asked. Namine didn't answer for a while, she was too shocked.
"WELL?!" Olette yelled.
"Ah!!! Uhmm…ano…yes?" she unsurely said.
Olette rolled her eyes.
"Hypocrite." Wah! That's the second time I've been called for!!!
"Well, that's because you don't care for something very much deeply to grasp on it." Said Olette.
"When I was nine, I was a victim of bullies."
"You?! Being bullied?!"
"Yes. It was because a very cute kid told me he likes me and a gang of girls just around my age…well, got jealous."
"You are unforgivable!!!"
"You think you're so pretty!!!"
Then, someone whacked there heads by using a broom.
It was Tsukamoto Roxas.
"Ah!!! What was that for?!"
"Go away!!!"
"He defended me from those bullies. And from that day on, I liked him." Said Olette, with hearts on her eyes. "Olette has fallen in love at once," she said like lovesick. Namine weirdly smiled.
"But then, I found out it was hopeless."
"Why can't you take it?" whined a girl as she thrust the gift.
"Megumi-chan has cooked for it especially for you!!"
"I said I don't want it." said Roxas.
Normally, he would've been hated by girls. But then, because he treats every girl the same, Roxas just became popular for that.
I gave him my chocolate.
"Please, just accept it! Throw it away later!!! At home!!!" I told him as I gave him mine. I ran away.
"That was kind of mean…" said Namine.
"well, he has fear of germs…but I know he throws it away…just not in front of me…" said Olette blatantly.
"I even asked him out once, but he refused. I was heartbroken."
"But when we were both in the Student Council, we began to talk…as friends…"
"Is Azuhime-san and Tsukamoto-san going out?"
"Aww…they do look cute together…"
"Roxas, am I bother being with you?" I asked.
"I don't mind."
"It's funny, how little words can make me feel. Though, I know there's really nothing going to happen between us…ever since I can remember, no one can open his heart." Narrated Olette. She looked at Namine with pain. "Not even you can."
Olette pulled away from the railings as she turned around to leave.
"Azuhime-san…I have one too." She turned around.
"There's really something I want badly, but I know, I can never have it. Mine maybe impossible, but yours are not!" encouraged Namine.
"You don't even know what you're saying!!!" snapped Olette.
"Eh, sorry!!!" Olette sighed as she got out of the roof top, suddenly meeting Roxas.
"I ate them, okay…" he said.
"I didn't throw them away…but…"
"I can never look at you like that. Sorry." He left her alone.
She burst into tears. "When you meant like that, you meant the way you look at Takaishi, right?! Liar!!! You could have never eaten it!!! It would be better if you hate me!!!"
The next day…
"I'm sorry Sora, but I really can't talk Azuhime-san in becoming a Gray, she's going a lot through…"
"It's okay, but, that was interesting…" said Sora with a wide grin. Because she has fallen!!! HARHARHAR!!!
"Takaishi-san!!!" Namine turned around to see Olette with a smile.
"Hi—woah!!! Azuhime-san!!!" she exclaimed.
"Good morning!!! I'm really sorry the way I acted yesterday, I was just in a bad mood!!! Sorry for bursting you out like that…" Olette apologized with a cute pout.
"Ooo!!! Azuhime-san is back to normal!!!" said Namine, shaking her hand. Sora sweat dropped.
"How can she satisfy herself when Azuhime herself told her to get lost…" wondered Sora. Then, Namine noticed something.
"Ah…Azuhime-san!!! In her normal clothes!!!" She became a Gray!!!!!!
"I hope we can get along!" said Olette.
"Sugoi, Azuhime-san! Sugoi!!!" teary-eyed Namine said, shaking the new Gray. "I'm gonna tell everyone!!!" Namine sped through.
Olette sighed as her smile dropped.
"Why did you change your mind?" Sora asked teasingly as the two of them walked together.
"It's not because you threatened me, but I chose to say…goodbye…to Tsukamoto …" Sora rolled her eyes.
"Ahkei."
"Are the Grays gonna be okay…with that simpleminded girl?"
"Ei, that's her good point, ne?"
"Ah…I guess so…"
The news spread easily and quickly. And made quite a few of commotions.
"That idiot!!! What did she do?!" Hayner freaked.
"They got the Queen of Whites? That's something," said Riku.
"…" Roxas, could never care for her more.
You guys... are freakin awesome... so please review!!!
