~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*Splat*
(Sora point of view)
The walk to school was uneventful. I was kind of hoping I would see Riku, but I guess he was either running late or had already gone ahead of me. The school was not that hard to get to, since it was my second time and all. It was just like I remember it being: large, and very confusing once I got there as to what building to go to.
I found myself walking past a gigantic clock tower. There were many people around it. Some waved and said 'hi' as others gave me a very warm smile. A few people I quickly glanced at all wore black, and looked very stoic. In this one case, there was a very tall, stern face looking guy with a smaller girl jumping all over him calling him "Leon". I did not want to read too much into it and I decided to continue on. If I did find my self too lost i would come back. So I started to walk one way, then started pacing back and forth, looking through class room windows, and walking off into god knows were. I did too many loop-arounds to count. Finally, after many odd stares from people passing by most likely because at that point I was highly fustrated and had begun to mumble to myself, I gave up. I thanked god that the gigantic clock tower was always in sight, and I made my way back to it. Unlike many other egotistical males, I was willing to ask for some form of directions.
"Ummm, excuse me...does anyone know where the office is?"
It was a general question, said aloud for anyone to answer. It just so happened that the hard-ass looking guy, the one who had the little girl jumping all over him "Leon" , responded. He gave me the chills at first, and I could feel his cold eyes staring daggers at me. To my surprise, he pointed the way. Apparently, I wanted to go to the left. I made a mental note that everything really is to the left. I realized, as I went in the direction that I was pointed, that I'd never gotten that guy's name. Or at least, a formal assurance of his name being Leon. As I walked, all I could see was a row of windows looking into different classrooms. The first one was a math room. The second was English. That much was apparent, what with the many book title references all over the walls. On the white board in a very clean writing was Mr. Cloud. Who I assumed to be "Mr. Cloud" was standing by the board giving a lecture on : 'Vampires' in Common Literature. At least, that was what I assumed because that was what was on the board.
There were a lot of people passing by. They would give me a quick glance, then turn away to talk to their friends . It looked to me as if they were used to seeing new people. I hurried along, still somewhat lost. When I finally entered the building after several more minutes of searching for the door behind large masses of bodies, the first thing I saw was another mass of bodies. The second was a giant lion's head on the floor made out of tiles. I figured it must be their mascot. And, just like everything apparently, it too was to the left. There were two grand staircases leading up to a balcony. I had to remind myself that this was a public school. In between the two grand staircases seemed like an outside but it was inside oases, including a skylight that was placed just right to emphasize the water fountain, and the many flowerbeds filled with wild roses. The smell of freshly cut grass tantalized my senses as I got a little bit closer. It was like I was drawn into it. I stopped, did a double-take, and questioned how this could have been a public school. After that, I ended up walking around on the first floor until everyone was gone, still looking for the office. It seemed like I found every type of room known to man but the one I needed. When I took a left from the central area, I found my way to...graphic arts. Graphic...arts...? Really? I had to question just how rich the folks in this town are?. But I ended up going in and asking the teacher for help.
When I walked through the door, I got a huge waft of heavy cleaner and loud voices that sounded like they were from a machine. I hesitantly walked further into the room. I'll just mention that it was twice the size of "my" house. A few kids did give me a look, but soon just went back to their computers. I walked in farther towards the smell and noise. There were two rooms, connected by a door. One was full of computers, and the other was full of printers. I couldn't find any teacher in the first room full of computers, so I went into the other one. As soon as I entered that room, a taller man with a darker blond hair jean pants and a white beater and is that a pice of straw in is mouth.
"Are you lost?"
The question was simple and clean, and I think he already knew the answer, but, I humored him anyway.
"Yeah, I need to get to the office. Could you please tell me where to go?"
It seemed rude at first, but the teacher simply ignored my question and walked off. I did not see him for a few minutes .A little stunned at the fact that I was ignored, I just stood there until he came back. He was with another person. She had long, brown/burgundy hair, and wore a short, pink shirt/skirt thing that barely seemed to cover anything. All the "normal" guys must always be happy whenever she bends down.
"I'm sorry I didn't quite get your name." Said the teacher.
"Oh yeah, sorry. My name is Sora..."
"All right Sora, this here is Kairi. She has volunteered to show you around, and get you to the office."
Before I knew it, I was off and flying. The teacher gave Kairi the oddest look; as I was being pulled by one arm out the door. We continued in this way, past the same area that I had just been in, aka, the ridiculous big stairs, and went on.
"On yeah. Before we get too far, that door right there is the office. I don't know how you missed it." Kairi said.
She was pointing at the door that clearly said 'Office'. It was right next to the lion's head. Hey, in my defense, the head was really distracting. Besides, would you want to go near a giant disembodied head? I started to walk towards the door, but Kairi kept pulling me along.
"Ummm...Kairi was it? If that's were I'm supposed to be, why are you dragging me farther away?" I said a little sarcastically and a wtf voice.
"You're Riku's Sora, right? He hasn't stopped talking about you since this morning. Word got out fast that Riku has a new playmate."
"Oh. Wait, WHAT? I'm not anyone's playmate!"
I found myself thinking, just for a quick moment, that I really wouldn't mind seeing him again, but playmate, or whatever, was far from the truth.
"But Riku already said that you guys kissed."
"Oh god...it was not a kiss! He just gave me mouth to mouth resuscitation!"
"So...he gave you a kiss."
Feeling like that argument could have gone on for hours, I finally gave in, knowing it would lead to more rumors. "Okay, fine..."
Riku's pov w/ some commentary from other students: (bout 10 mins in the past)
Glancing at the clock, I just wanted and waited for time to pass ... Seriously, 1st period biology sucks some massive balls. I just couldn't wait to get to art class... I needed to vent. I still couldn't believe that I had that kind of dream, and about a boy to top it all off. That, and to add more to my aggravation my friends Kairi, Leon, and Tifa somehow sensed something was up, so I had to tell them. So now the whole school knows! I don't know why people care so much about other people's business but their own. I guess it's a teenager thing. The stuck up, gossip-snobs, as most of them are, only like me because I don't like them. They can't have me, so they want me. I'm a mystery and, to them, that's hot. At least, that's what all the girls say.
"Hey come on, it's time to go! You're being more spacey then usual...and you're missing out on the new kid. He's right outside."
This coming from Axel, the one guy who of all people is the one to be late, not me. All of my belongings were promptly packed up. As soon as I exited the room, the first thing I heard was:
"Ok fine. So what if me and Riku kissed? I'm not going to deny that I enjoyed it."
I heard snickers from everyone, and a few gasps and moans from a few of the girls that had also left their classrooms.
I had a funny suspicion that Kairi had something to do with this. After all, she knew class was getting out, an she brought him here, not to the office...I'm going to have to have a talk with her, eventually. A long talk.
I gave Kairi my "what the fuck why did you do that" look. She clearly saw it, and pulled Sora away from the crowd that had formed, and walked past me. I followed them, ignoring the other people looking at us. We walked to the art building. It was silent for some time. Sora's face was bright red.
I kept looking at him, wondering if he meant what he had said about how he liked the "kiss". It had been eating at me since I heard him in the hall. I know I missed some of the conversation but I needed to know!
I know I've always said that I would love anyone if that's who I felt attracted to, but it scares me a little now to know that it might be a boy. Not only that, but one I hardly know. But...something just...clicked.
"Kairi, can I have a minute alone? Go to class, I'll take Sora from here."
I could tell she was gonna get fussy, but I just took Sora by the hands. I didn't mean it to happen, but our fingers intertwined. The shade of Sora's blush got deeper and deeper. It was outrageously adorable to look at.
Kairi left without saying a word. She knew we needed to talk. With no one in sight, I turned toward Sora
"Sora, I'm no one big in the school. I'm not a jock I love music and art. I live with two male parents, as you well know. But we did not kiss. It was just a way to save your life. I don't know what Kairi told you, but it was a lie."
I just felt like I needed to clarify anything that Karii might have said to him.
No other words needed to be exchanged. He followed me to the next building. From there, we entered the class .
"I see you like them young and fresh now." Vanitas said.
"Better than the alternative." I said, purposely looking over Vanitas' body.
We did not stay long. Just enough for me to get the pass, then we were out. Sora did give Vanitas an odd look though. To him, it must have been like seeing his own double.
( A wee bit time jump)
It was nearing the end of the school day, and I thanked god that Sora had been put in most of my classes, or at least close by. We had seen a lot of each other, and I had shown him around. The time was winding down, and I could not wait to see him again. We agreed to walk home. I had shown him where we could meet each other after school.
Unfortunately for me, my last class of the day was family studies. And, yay for me, we are learning about baby's. I just really hope that we don't have to take care of bags of flour, and pretend it's a baby for a class was about to start, and we had all taken our seats. This had to have been the worst class ever. Not only was Sora not in the class with me but Vanitas was my table buddy.
The teacher is always a little bit late for class, so none of us really thought too much of it when she was 10 minutes late. Of course, she was rolling in what seemed to be a hamper full of something when she did arrive. I just hoped it wasn't flour.
"Now class, as you know, this week is about babies and their care and development."
She started to fumble around on the board, writing a few things down.
"This week's assignment: nurture and raise a "fake" family!" She said enthusiastically.
...damn. I should have knocked on wood.
"Now class, you'll each be raising a "baby" with your table partner. Now, what makes this year different from the others is that its not a sack of flour, but an actual doll baby!"
Oh okay. So...at least it is not a flour sack...oh sarcasm, the air is just rife with you...Oh wait, what!
"Miss Aerith! There are a few boy with boy partners though!"
"Yes Riku, I am aware of that. I think as young adults, you should be able to handle it."
As she took out what looked like real babies from the cart and placed one on each table, I sighed deeply, knowing full well that it was going to be a LONG week...
