Disclaimer: Do I really have to do this? It's not like I own anything except my OCs. So anyways, here's chapter 2. Hope you enjoy!
It was 7:00 pm. My friends and I had already finished unpacking. Larxene on the other hand, had only unpacked 2 of her 3 suitcases. Our dorm wasn't exactly big, but it was a decent size. It had two bunk beds, a TV set, and a bathroom with a toilet, sink, and shower. "Jeez this dorm is small," I said out loud.
"Well, what do you expect?" Axel asked, "Just because this place is a top school, doesn't mean it has everything."
"Well, I just thought…" I said, trailing off.
"What?" he snapped.
I curled up into a ball and muttered, "Never mind."
"Hey, go easy on her, Axel," Roxas said from the bunk above mine. "Just because you're so uptight on the first day back doesn't mean you have to take it out on her."
"Hmph," Larxene said snottily. "If she can't handle Axel, then she can't handle this school. She should get out of here while she can, before people start hurting her."
"What? Like you haven't already been a total bitch to me?" I asked, furious at her. "Look, just 'cause you're an A-List girl, doesn't mean you can stomp on anyone you hate. Those people have feelings too!"
They all stared at me in stunned silence, taking in what I, the seemingly harmless quiet girl, had just said. "Well, since I'm all unpacked, I'm going to go to sleep," I said, trying to forget what I had just done. "Good night." With that, I climbed under the covers and drifted off to sleep.
I had been sleeping peacefully, but suddenly felt myself being shaken. "Get up Riena." Someone, a guy, said.
"Mmph. Fi mo minutes…" I replied sleepily, closing my eyes tighter.
"You're going to be late." The guy warned.
"Lay fo wha?" I asked tiredly.
"Class!"
I bolted upright and nearly hit my head on the upper bunk. "Shit, shit, shit." I muttered. I filtered through my clothes and raced into the tiny bathroom to change. 15 minutes later, I came out, brushing the tangles out of my hair. I nearly ran into Roxas on my way out, but stopped because he had a huge grin on his face. "What?" I asked. "Did I miss something?"
He snickered and replied, "I tricked you. We don't have classes yet, we have breakfast."
I slapped him playfully in the arm. "You are so mean!" I said with mock hurt in my voice.
"Aww, I'm sorry." He teased. "The look on your face was worth it though." I stuck my tongue at him, and walked out of the dorm and down the hall.
Only when was half way down the hall did I realize I didn't know where I was going. "Crap…" I muttered. I looked for Roxas, but he was nowhere in sight. I tried to remember where the cafeteria was, but couldn't.
"Lost?"
I whipped around and saw a guy with pinkish-brown hair. "Uh, well, I, um… yes."
"All right. I'll take you to the cafeteria, okay?"
"Okay…" I said shyly.
"By the way," he said, "I'm Marluxia."
"I'm Riena," I said. "Riena Takashi."
"Nice to meet you Riena." Then, he gave me and extremely sexy smile. I swear, it was the kind that could make you melt. I blushed and looked down at my feet. He walked me the rest of the way to the cafeteria and waved me off saying, "See ya later." And winked at me. I spotted my roommates and floated over to where they were sitting.
Axel smirked at me. "You seem happy." I just smiled, a serene smile plastered on my face. "Well, what's your reason?"
"Marluxia…" I sighed.
They all looked at me in shock. "But he's total A-list, Ri. I thought you hated A-listers." Roxas said, looking pointedly at Larxene.
"Wait, hold up." Larxene said. "Marluxia talked to you?"
"Yep. Why?" I asked.
"What did he do?" she asked. "Tell me!!!"
"Okay, okay!" I said. "Let's see… he walked me here, we swapped names, he gave me a very sexy smile, and winked at me before he left."
"WHAT?!" she screamed. "I've been trying to get that treatment from him since forever!"
"Ahhh! Don't eat me!" I pleaded, ducking behind Roxas.
She calmed down and said, "I won't. But how about this? Since he's interested in you, how about we call a truce, okay?"
"Umm… alright I guess." We shook hands and finished breakfast. The bell rang and we went through our classes. I didn't see Axel and Larxene again until study hall. It was the only class that all the grades shared. Since Axel and Larxene were juniors, they didn't have the same classes as us sophomores. The four of us sat at a table chatting about our classes, when someone elbowed me and asked, "Are you Riena?"
"Guilty," I replied with a small smile.
He handed me a note and told me, "It's from Marluxia." I opened up the note and read it quickly. When I was done, I was blushing like mad.
"Ooh! Ooh! What's it say?" Larxene asked, trying to get a look at the note.
"I'll read it." I replied. "Okay, it says: 'If you would be so kind as to dine with me tonight, I would be extremely flattered. If not, then maybe some other time. But if yes, please meet me at the garden at dinner time. –Marluxia'"
They all gasped. "you should say yes, Riena!" Larxene urged.
"I'm for her going." Axel agreed. "What do you think, Roxas?"
"What? Oh yea, sure." Roxas muttered. "She should go if she wants."
"Okay. Hey, anything wrong, Roxas?" I asked.
"Oh, no." he replied. "I was just… thinking."
"Oh, alright." On the note I scribbled 'Yes, I would be very obliged to meet with you for dinner. See you soon! –Riena' I poked the kid who passed me the note and said, "Give this back to Marluxia." He nodded and passed it on. Marluxia read me answer and gave me his signature sexy smile. I blushed. Maybe this year won't be so bad after all… I thought to myself.
There you go people! Chapter 2! Oh yeah, I forgot to mention earlier that there's going to be point of view switched later in the story. But probably not until chapter 4 or 5. Until next time, my readers!
