Sora x Riku!
.
'Thoughts!' From anyone really.
.
.
Once lunch was over so sadly Sora went to his class. Various ideas popped in his mind as he began to think on how to confess to Namine. He entered into his classroom and quickly looked at the clock that hung on the wall. It read one-thirty pm.
'Okay, I have three and a half an hour to think about how I'm going to say this.' Sora thought, sitting down on his desk.
He sure can use some advice by now. Oh, how Sora wishes he had some friends right about now? He literally had no clue on what to do? Sora wasn't dense but rather inexperience in this kind of situation. He never even had his first kiss yet! At least of what he doesn't know...
"Alright class quiet down!" The teacher, Xigbar exclaimed, quieting the loud noise that came from his fellow students. Sora tensed and sat up straight to pay attention, he was scared of this teacher.
"Listen up class you are going to be partnered up for a whole week and do a simple writing and drawing assignment." Xigbar announced as he went behind his desk and sat down, propping his feet on the wooden desk.
Sora mentally groaned, while the class cheered. How he hated doing partner projects! No one wanted to be Sora's partner, so Sora usually ended up doing the whole assignments alone.
"But! I'm partnering you up," Xigbar added quickly, love hearing the beautiful sounds of his students whining. "Okay, now..." He began to pair up students.
Eyes widened, Sora sighed in relief. Finally he can have someone to help him with the assignment, and maybe even talk to Sora. He wondered who will be his partner?
"Sora, you're with Tidus." Xigbar finished.
The class went silent for a moment then snickered, laughing at the blonde teen. "You're so dead Tidus! You're stuck with him," Classmates laughed.
"Don't remind me... I rather skip class." Tidus replied disappointed. "This sucks."
Sora frowned, it hurt when people made fun of him, especially when he was in the same class as them. It was better talking behind his back that way Sora wouldn't have to hear it.
Xigbar snarled, he hated any mischievousness that came from his students, even when they were making fun of someone else. "Enough!" He shouted, "No go to your partner and get started on your work." The class scattered around to go with their assigned partner, slightly scared by their teacher's sudden outburst.
Sora hesitated if he should be the one going to Tidus, after all, he doesn't want to be with partner with him. Maybe he should ask Xigbar if he can work alone instead, Sora didn't want to be a burden to anyone.
Suddenly a desk connected with his before Sora can react, he looked up and saw Tidus grumpily sitting down beside him. "Let's just get this over with."
He nodded, "So, what do you want to do? The writing or drawing part?" Sora asked. "I don't mind doing the writing part."
Tidus shrugged. "Whatever." With that being said they continued their assignment in silence, much to Sora's dismay.
Riku was sitting down alone in detention; no one or other students were there but him. The teacher, Cid, was on his chair and leaning down across his desk. Focusing on scribbling down his notebook that he was trying so hard to finish. What was it? Crossword puzzles? Sudoku? Likely.
Seeing as the teacher was distasted Riku reached for his phone from his pocket. He saw that he had couple of texts from his friends. Riku began to read the texts in his mind.
Text one. 'Do we wait for you after school?' Roxas asked.
Text two. 'This is so the other assholes faults!' Riku was pretty sure Vanitas was shouting when he wrote the text.
Text three. 'Hey man, we'll wait for you after school. Or, let us know if you skip.' Axel wrote the last text.
Riku sighed, he was pretty sure he'll be in detention for a while, especially since he was staying after school. He can't make the others wait, well he can but he rather not.
Taking a quick glance at Cid he started to text back, making sure he wasn't seen with his phone. 'Just leave when school is over. I'll be here late anyways.' Riku pressed send.
"Are you on your phone, Riku?!" Cid questioned, rising up to march towards Riku. Riku rolled his eyes. "No I don't have my phone with me." He lied, putting is hands in the air.
"Why you little! If I see that you have your phone-" Cid stopped talking as he examined his desk and saw that Riku wasn't lying, there was no phone. Cid noticed that there was nothing on his pocket or lap either. "Huh, what do you know, you weren't lying. Carry on then." He grumbled and headed back to his own desk to finish his puzzles.
Riku smirked. Raising his legs where he secretly slipped his phone as he slides it off from his lap. The teacher didn't even notice when Riku pulled the little stunt.
'Dumbass' Riku thought, grabbing his cellphone and putting it back into his pocket. Now he groaned when he saw the time it was before he put his phone away. Two o' clock.
"I'm going to be here forever." Riku muttered annoyed. To think he was the only one that got detention, the others were off the hook easily. Then again he was caught torturing Reno, even though that asshole deserved it for messing with his gang members. He'll pay for it later on.
"Quiet down!" Cid exclaimed as he glared at Riku.
The bell rang indicating that class was over, and now to move on to the next classroom. Sora was beyond relieved, the silence from Tidus was just plain awkward and uncomfortable. There was no talking or communicating, even about their assignment.
"Fix your desk then you may leave." Xigbar said.
The class fixed the desks and left, just as Sora was about to leave Xigbar stopped him. "Not you Sora. May I have a word with you?" Xigbar requested. Some students laughed, laughing that Sora was going to probably get scolded by the teacher.
Sora gulped. Why does the teacher want to talk to him? Did he do something wrong? Sora hasn't done anything wrong. A bad grade on a test? Not likely. Sora was an A+ student, always passing with high scores so there's no way it could be that.
He headed to Xigbar, who waited to talk when all the students left his classroom. Once seeing everyone was gone he spoke, "How are you doing, Sora?" Xigbar wondered.
Blinking in confusion, Sora slowly answered, "Umm... Good Sir?..." Unsure what else to say. Why was his teacher asking about his well-being?
"Sora, you can't fool this old man." He stated, shaking his head, "I know you're often made fun of by your classmates. But, be it as it may I don't like it. I can't stand when kids nowadays torment one another. Why do they make fun of you?" Xigbar raised his eyebrow.
"I don't know really... They just don't like me, Sir. I tried to talk to them but they just ignored me," Sora explained, sadly. Rubbing his arms, he really wanted to go to his next class. It felt odd talking about this certain stuff with his teacher. Not like he was going to tell him everything. Sora would never mention the bullying he gets from Riku and his gang. He'll be in deep trouble, or in the hospital.
"Let me get this straight. You don't have any friends?" Xigbar questioned.
Sora shook his head. "No-" Then remembered someone, "Wait, I have one friend. But she's often busy." He hoped that would at least make Xigbar satisfy.
"Sora, you're in high school. You're supposed to have many friends, or at least someone you can hang out with. One can't be enough, go and make friends. You're an outstanding student, Sora. Don't let others tell you otherwise."
Nodding, "I understand, Sir. Thank you." Sora waved bye to Xigbar then left the classroom. He was rather surprised by Xigbar's sudden pep talk, Sora didn't think teachers cared. Guess he was wrong.
Xigbar watched Sora leave, "I miss being young." He stated, "But hated high school."
Riku was utterly bored, and he couldn't stand it. Looking at the wall clock he saw that it was barely three-thirty Pm. School would be over in thirty minutes by then, but Riku would still have another hour to stay. Life sucks.
"Cid, may I go to the restroom," Riku asked with no manners whatsoever. Not caring the consequences.
Cid narrowed his eyes, "That's 'Sir' to you!" Teens nowadays were so disrespectful. "Just hurry up and go, and you better come back!"
"Sure." Riku got up and left the classroom, finally having the taste of freedom. He debating if he should skip, "Should I?" Riku asked himself.
The thought of getting detention again did not appeal Riku, there was no point of skipping if tomorrow he would have detention again. Having to seat in the room all alone and being completely bored. Fuck that.
"I'll just walk around for a couple of minutes before I'm stuck in there again," He muttered to himself. Riku despised detention; he always managed to avoid getting it, or threatened anyone else who would likely tattled on him. If people were to tattled on Riku he would be in detention every day. It's a good thing everyone was afraid of him.
As he walked around some halls passing time, Riku noticed other teens looking at him. With a simple glare they all scurried away quickly, Riku couldn't help but sneer. Everyone should know who's the top dog around there.
Riku headed back to class, otherwise Cid would get suspicious. He wasn't surprise when he saw his teacher barely walking out the door. "I thought you ditched!"
"I just went to the restroom."
"It took you twenty minutes!" Cid barked furiously.
"Had to go." Riku answered shrugging, and passed him to enter the classroom to take a seat.
Cid mentally wanted to strangle this lying teenager that he watching, he grumbled as he sat down glaring at Riku, who merely put his head down to take a nap.
School was over! Sora was now outside thinking on how he was going to do this. Confess to Namine his suppose true love, the only one who would talk and make sure he was alright. He had plenty of time to think on it since Namine was in an after school meeting.
Sora paced around the water fountain, seeing many students passing by as he continued to think. "Okay think, Sora" he motivated himself. "Think of a perfect confession."
He can't just be blunt and say I love you; that's just plain creepy and weird. This was Namine, who was very creative and thoughtful so Sora decided that he should do the same.
"Namine, I had these feelings for you for long time and I just want to say I love you... No, sounds to stalker-y. Namine, you are the paint in my canvas... Eww! That sounds weird." Sora said in disgust. "Namine, you are an angel that should be treated with love and care, and I can do that... I sound like a player." Sora shook his head.
"Namine-" Sora halted as he heard similar voices, namely Axel and Vanitas. Sora turned quickly and saw the gang members getting out of school. "Oh No! Not now... I have to hide."
Sora jumped to a nearby bush before he was caught by any of them. He open the bush a little and saw the others walking away towards the gates. "Yes, they're leaving." This day couldn't get any better, Sora was saved from a beating.
Although, he noticed that Riku wasn't with them, "That's weird they're always with him?" Sora saw Vanitas, Axel, Saix, Seifer, and Roxas. But, no Riku?
"Weird? But awesome for me," Sora smiled widely and got out of the bushes when he saw the gang leaving. Because he was pretty positive if they were to see Sora he would have been attack no doubt. Lucky him they can't see him.
Finally when the cost was clear Sora got out of his hiding spot. "Need to keep thinking." Sora continued to pace back and forth, he had to make the confession sincere and pure genuine.
So he thought and thought, yet nothing couldn't come out. It seemed hopeless at this rate but Sora wasn't going to give up. Minute after minute passed by rather quickly, and then more time ticked off. Sora didn't even noticed just how much time has passed when he began pondering.
"This is useless... No, you know what I'm just going to be myself!" He encouraged himself.
Sora marched up to the front of the school looking through the see-through doors. He was rather surprised by the time when he saw the wall clock. It read four-fifty pm. Time sure flew by fast in Sora's opinion.
"Wow that was quick. It's almo- There she is!" Sora exclaimed as he saw Namine getting out a classroom. She was talking to the teacher about some school matters, Sora assumed. Then once there conversation was over Namine started heading towards the door where Sora was near.
Quickly backing away so Namine wouldn't see him, Sora took a deep breath. He was beginning to get nervous and his heart sped rather quickly, like it was bouncing around his rib cage. Sora was probably blushing by the sudden heat that coursed through his now flushed cheeks.
This was it, once the door opens he'll spill it out. What could go wrong?
Sora composes himself, but failed as he was shaking with anxiety. He waited for her to come out... Sora waited and then it happened! The door burst open.
Without even looking Sora just bowed down and confessed right there and then. "I have loved you for a long time! Would you umm..." Sora gulped, "Go out with me!?" He rapidly spoke, not wanting to stuttered and stammered. That would just be awful and embarrassing.
Sora kept his eyes shut, eagerly waiting for a response from Namine. But nothing came, even after couple of more seconds.
Slowly, Sora raised his head and peeked out in one eye, before both eyes snapped open at the person in front of him. Oh my god... He didn't just do what he did, did he?!
It wasn't Namine that was in front of him. No. It was someone he never expected to come out the doors... It was Riku, whose expression by the look on his face was shock and what appears to be confusion.
Sora stepped back, afraid. "Shit..." He whispered.
"Riku... J-just forget what I said. T-this never happened." Sora stammered, which Riku didn't really hear as Sora kept moving back. What's going on? Did he just confess to the wrong person?!
Before Riku could say anything, Sora bolted away. Screaming in fear, "I'm going to die!" Leaving Riku still in a frozen state as he watched Sora running away.
Shaking head to come back to his senses, Riku smirked. Things just got more interesting.
Author's Note... Hope you guys enjoyed the chapter! Whoa made this longer, whoops. Anyways, Like to thank my aunt for helping me with this idea, I was stuck in the middle. The confession was already going to be like this though. If I was Sora and made that mistake, I wouldn't show up for school in days haha. Now that the confession is made, what do you think will happen?
Let me know what you think! And if any ideas please share or make suggestions! I sometimes take them into considerations!
