I sometimes wonder,
If I am only just a marionette,
Someone unknown pulling on my strings,
Controlling every action.
Its time to make a stand,
and cut the strings, binding me to my imprisonment…
Its time to take control of my life for once…
A week or so has past since Riku first started school. Having friends like Axel and Sora really did make him feel like he belonged… For once
"Hey! Riku!" A familiar voice yelled out from behind, making Riku jump. It was the end of the day, the chaotic rush for buses was extraordinary. Lucky for Riku, he had a later bus, so no rushing around for him!
"Boo" he said, taking the silverette by surprise
"Jesus! You scared the living daylights out of me!" Riku said, trying to start his heart again.
"Hehe, Sorry… Sora and I were just wondering if you wanted to come and stay over tomorrow night at his place, a few people are coming over in the afternoon, but it's just me staying the night. I- I mean he, wanted to know if you wanted to stay or not" Axel Smiled awkwardly…
"Sure! Sounds like fun!" Riku said; He'd never really stayed at anyone's house before, so this was all new to him. His grip on his school bag tightened.
"G-Great! I G-Guess I'll see you tomorrow then" Axel said, Riku flashed him a smile before Axel ran off.
Could life get any better? He asked himself… but couldn't think of anything too make it better. Riku couldn't help the little smile that crept up on his face. Heading over to the wooden fence thing-y (honestly, no one really knew what it was for…) He climbed up a little, sitting on the top, pulling his earphones in, waiting for his bus.
Ring ring...
"H-Hello?" A confused voice said on the other line
"Sora! It's Axel, jeez! I thought you had Caller ID!" Axel joked
"ha-ha very funny" Sora said sarcastically "So what did you call for?"
"Awww! So I can't call my friend without a reason behind it?"
"It's not that… it's because you only call if there is a reason behind it… I know you too well Axel" Sora said, a little smugly; he knew Axel was now trying to come up with a witty remark, since he pretty much got owned.
"Touché good sir… Touché"
"So… what is it?"
"Well, you know how in science how you asked me to ask Riku about tomorrow?"
"You're just rambling again, but yeah?"
"Just letting you know, he said yes"
"oh… sweet!" Sora said "Well I'd best be getting everything ready for tomorrow, I'll talk to you later"
Beep
And then he hung up…
Was it sad to say that Axel was really exited about tomorrow? Just to see Riku out of school?
He knew that Sora has a few… 'Games' up his Sleeve; and Axel (of ALL people) was exited to see what they were. He sighed at the thought and waited for tomorrow to come.
Tomorrow came soon enough. Riku kinda felt awkward around everyone, only because he hardly knew any of the people who came, Except Axel and Sora, but they were both busy entertaining friends, leaving Riku sitting there by himself.
"Demyx, Roxas, Namine, Kairi, Riku and Axel…. Lets play a game~!" Sora chirped happily, Bringing out an empty glass bottle "now everyone get in a circle~!"
Riku poked Axel, to get his attention, "Spin the bottle?" He asked "Isn't that a little kiddy game?"
Axel Chuckled "Yeah, it's a kiddy game, but its fun to see everyone's reactions, since there are only 2 girls here…"
"Oh…" Was all Riku had to say,
"Besides, What we do is choose the type of kiss the other gives, whether it be a peck, or well… you get the idea"
Axel sat down next to Demyx, while Riku awkwardly found a place next to Roxas.
"Me First! Me first!" Demyx chirped, taking the bottle from Sora and spun, when it landed on Roxas…
"Uhh… Peck? On the cheek?" Sora said, knowing well that his brother gets really embarrassed.
Demyx crept over to where Roxas was sitting and planted a little kiss on his cheek, making both Blondes blush. Roxas then snatched the bottle up and spun, ironically landing on Sora
"No! No! No! He's my brother! That's just sick!" Roxas protested.
The game continued on for a while. Riku was looking out the window, not really paying attention to the game.
"Uhh…Riku" Axel's voice snapped him from his thoughts
"hmm?" Looking around he saw the bottle pointing to him "oh… Who spun?"
Axel raised his hand.
"aaaannnddd… it has to be a full on kiss! Complete this and I shall give you both a box of pocky!" Sora's devious smirk spread across his face…
"Umm… ok" Riku didn't quite grasp the idea, but in his state of confusion, Axel's lips met his own, Riku squeaked at the sudden action, but slowly melted into the kiss (having really no experience). Really Riku? A Squeak? So manly.. He cursed himself
"N-Now where's my pocky?" Axel asked, more liked demanded. Riku blushed at the sudden contact, trying to hide his face from the red head.
Sora pulled Axel away to get their prizes; they left Riku alone with the others, staring at him with curious eyes; which made him very uncomfortable...
"Why did you have to embarrass me like that?" Axel hissed
"Oh! C'mon! I did you a favor!"
The comment made Axel roll his eyes,
"Don't tell me you didn't like it…" Sora giggled "We all know you like Riku"
Axel's Green eyes widened in horror, was it that obvious?
"Duh..." Sora answered his mental question
Snatching up the boxes of strawberry pocky, Axel merely huffed
"B-But you won't tell right? I mean… Do you think it's obvious to Riku?" Axel started to bite his lip; He didn't want to be made a fool of again
Sora patted his friend on the shoulder
"I'm sure of it, but I can do some undercover work for you?" That Devious smirk returned to his face… Making Axel curious in what he had in mind, but that was the beauty of surprise, I suppose
Meanwhile
"So… Riku, Nice to meet you, the name is Demyx~!" The Dirty blond scooted closer to Riku, after Sora and Axel left to get the pocky, and to prepare another game.
"So… you and Axel…eh?" He giggled like a little girl "I knew he was a player, but jeez!"
"P-Player? Axel and I are just friends!" Riku defended himself
"Never stopped him before" A new voice butt in, his voice was dark and full of hatred "I'm guessing he never told you about me, did he?"
Riku shook his head
"Yeah… He never used to talk about his past boyfriends"
"B-Boyfriends? We're just friends! Nothing more, nothing less" Riku defended
"That's what I was once… I was just like you… huh"
"Huh?"
"Roxas… I really don't think this is necessary!"
Roxas just looked at him blankly and continued.
"a lot like you actually… New kid? Never really fit in your other schools? Axel befriended you and you felt like you belonged somewhere"
Where was this kid coming at? It was he knew his entire week, off by heart… Riku bit his lip and nodded
"And that's where all the trouble begins…" He looked defeated "and since he just kissed you, he'll want you even more… You'll play hard to get, then you'll fall for him… and he'll dump you before you know it, going on to his next play toy." Roxas Hissed the last two words.
Riku nodded again, biting his lip to the point that it bled. "But again, we're just friends, I don't date… ever, things happened in the past… Scarred me for life"
As he said that, Axel ironically walked in…
