Hope you enjoy the chapter! Read and Review!
Sora x Riku!
.
.
Riku was sitting down near a school corner with his friends. They all had decided to ditch class and just hang out outside the school roof, talking about random things. Well, Riku wasn't listening as he began to think about something else that was on his mind.
"Man, you should've seen how that girl was all over me," Vanitas smirked, "They can't resist me." He said as stood up from the ground.
"You are so fucking conceited," Roxas declared as he rolled his eyes, getting annoyed as Vanitas continued talking about himself. Roxas crossed his legs to sit up straight then lay back towards the wall.
"You're just jealous you don't have this!" Vanitas moved his hand up and down his body to prove his point. Who wouldn't want his body?!
"Believe me I'm not jealous of your body... But I am jealous that you're shorter than me," Roxas mocked. Laughing at the thought that he would ever be jealous of Vanitas' body structure.
Vanitas growled. He was indeed the shortest member of the group being five foot five, while Roxas was five foot seven. Vanitas did envy the others for that. "You son of b-"
"Would you guys quit bickering!? I can't focus on my messages!" Another teen, Seifer, said annoyed. He had blonde streaks of hair sticking out from the black beanie he worn. Seifer being the most hostile one from the gang had issues with his so called friends.
"Why don't you make me, beanie boy?!" Vanitas countered, glaring at Seifer. He doesn't like it when other people tell him what to do so he certainly wasn't going to listen to beanie boy. Vanitas and Seifer often argued and fought one another, but never in a serious situation to the point of blood being seen.
Seifer stood up from the floor and marched towards the short teen, "Do you want to start something, midget?" He sneered, causing Vanitas to snap. "That's it!" Vanitas tackled Seifer to the ground harshly while Roxas sighed and stand up.
Roxas always had to separate the two every now and then since he was used to it. Roxas walked to the arguing pair that was wrestling on the floor, giving each other a few good punches. Until Roxas grabbed Vanitas' arm and yanked him up in an instance, getting him away from Seifer. But Roxas didn't stop there; he harshly stepped on Seifer's chest to prevent him from moving.
"Do you prefer fighting me? Because I recall beating you badly in struggle." Roxas reminded in an angry expression as he put more pressure onto his foot.
Seifer winced. "Alright, stop! I get it. Fuck!" With that Roxas moved his leg and went back to sitting down, getting comfy to relax. Seifer grumbled as he sat up, he can't believe he's afraid of Roxas. Never mess with Roxas when he's either serious or angry. But, Seifer was always surprised Roxas helped Vanitas.
Vanitas may be an asshole, but Roxas knew him for quite a while and considered him an actual friend, just like Riku. Sure, they argue a lot but that was the beauty of their friendship. Seifer on the other hand, fucking annoyed Roxas to no end due to his crappy attitude, he is Roxas' least favorite person from the gang.
Vanitas scowled, but decided to shrug it off. He was not going to yell at Roxas because he always bailed Vanitas out of trouble. "I'm fucking bored! Where are Axel and Saix?" Vanitas asked irritated as he sat back to the ground, folding his arms.
"Got a message from them. They were sent to detention because some guy pissed off Axel. And let's just say Axel found a perfect spot for the guy," Seifer explained, looking over his phone to read his messages. "What a dumbass!"
"How was Saix involved?" Roxas asked confused. Saix wasn't mention in anyway so how did he get detention?
Seifer chuckled, "Turns out it was Saix's locker!" Vanitas burst into laughter while Roxas simply snickered. It seems like they were having a good time, except Riku, who was in deep thought. Not bothering to listen to the others as he looked up at the blue sky.
Sora arrived early to his next class, slightly staggering from the massive punches he received earlier. A punch to his face and another to his stomach, no doubt bruises were starting to form. A frown appeared on his face as some students looked at him strange before going back to what they were doing.
Ignoring everyone, he walked towards his desk and sat down. Sora was tired and just wanted to go home; he couldn't face another beating from Riku. Why wouldn't Riku give him a break? Always wanting to take his money, or whatever he had!
Sora began to panic when he realized that he has no more money to give to Riku. He would have to wait one more week till he gets more money from doing chores. What is he going to do!?
"Hello, Sora," someone spoke softly, breaking Sora's inner turmoil. Sora swiftly looked up, his heart suddenly beating fast, and smiled.
Seeing that it was his good friend Namine, someone Sora trusted and could talk too. "Namine! Nice seein-.. How.. hav- you been?!" Sora stammered embarrassingly, mentally face palming himself. How ridiculous he sounded?
Namine was in the same grade as Sora, and was the only person that talked to Sora on daily bases. She had long blonde hair and always worn a simple dress with a light sweater that made her look adorable in Sora's opinion. She was around the same height as Sora and had a beautiful talent in drawing. How she was single is something Sora often wondered?
"You look hurt, Sora? Want me to take you to the nurse?" Namine was deeply concern by Sora's state. Sora didn't deserve anything he was a good person. But, Namine knows that Riku is always trying to find Sora, and take every chance he can to mess with Sora.
"I'm fine, Namine. It was just a few punches, no big deal." Sora grinned to try to ease her worriedness. He was happy that Namine cared for him, and not care about Riku's threat- about no one getting near Sora.
"Your face is forming a nasty bruise!" She scolded pointing to his cheek. Namine knows for a fact that Sora was trying to make her calm down and not get her worried. Something that irritated Namine to no end!
"I don't even feel it," Sora lied horribly, making Namine's eyes downcast.
"Why don't you tell your parents? Or, the principle?" Namine questioned.
Sora sighed, "Because if anything happens to Riku I would automatically be the blame, and his gang would come after me..." He tried to tell a teacher once before but couldn't out of fear. So many things could have happen, for better or worse, and Sora didn't want to find out which one it would have turned out.
"Sora you can't let Riku be treating you like this. It isn't right!" She exclaimed, hint of anger in her tone.
"I know... But what am I supposed to do, no one comes to my aid when there beating the shit out of me! Everyone is afraid of Riku and I don't blame them, he's totally crazy... I'll just wait till I graduate from high school unless a miracle happens." Sora put his forehead on top of desk in defeat.
Namine couldn't help but feel bad for Sora, he had a good point, no one would come to his aid. "Hey?"
Sora turned his head looking up at Namine with so much sadness. All he wanted was for Riku to leave him alone and have a normal high school life like every boy should.
"No matter what I'll be there for you, Sora. Remember, you can always count on me okay," Namine softly smiled before going off to her desk since the class bell ranged.
Sora's eyes widened by Namine's words, he couldn't help but smiled. Namine was perfect: sweet, helpful, and kind hearted. How Sora was lucky to have her as a friend.
Sadly, deep in his heart he felt more for her than just a friend.
Author's Note... Hope you guys enjoyed the chapter! Just wanted to point out the members of the gang and Sora's crush! I don't mind Namine because she's nice and in the game it was sad how it turned out for her, the departing was devastating! I'm so behind on updating my other stories... I have ideas for this story though! Maybe the next chapter will be the confession or there next one after that!
Let me know what you think! And if any ideas please share or make suggestions! I sometimes take them into considerations!
Read and Review Please!... I'll go faster
