A/N: Here we go! Chapter 5!
Disclaimer: I still don't own Kingdom Hearts? Well, who'd a thunk it?
Sora woke up with a yawn, stretching widely before looking around blearily. He glanced at the window, seeing that it was still pretty dark, and smiled. Right on time.
He got up and headed over to the drawer, quickly changing into casual clothes and trainers. He carefully made his way over to the door, glancing back at Roxas to make sure his twin was still asleep, then grabbed the keys and went out.
Once he was in the street and the door was shut behind him, he gave a happy grin before starting up the hill. A few other early risers spotted him and waved, greeting him. He waved back, already a common figure at this time.
He reached the top of the hill, going to the grassy area and climbing the tree at the very centre. He pulled himself up through the branches, finally reaching the top, and looked out over the scene.
He sat on his little perch, watching as the sun rose over the edge of town. People started to move around, curtains being thrown open and the street lights switching off. Sora watched it all calmly; this was the only time which was truly his own, and he loved it.
Finally he sighed, deciding he'd been up here long enough. He went back down the tree, jumping from the last branch and landing gracefully. Making sure no one was in his way, he jogged forward. As he reached the hill, he began to pick up speed, strides lengthening. He gave a silent laugh, feeling the wind rushing through his hair as he practically flew back down the street.
As he reached the bottom, he used the momentum to keep him going forward, slowly coming to a walk as he reached his house. He rubbed the slight sweat from his brow, allowing himself a couple of minutes to catch his breath, then unlocked the door and headed back in.
He carefully put everything as it had been before, changing back into his pyjamas and crawling under his covers. Glancing up at the clock, he noted that it was only six.
Another hour for him to sleep, then.
The alarm clock woke him, and he sat up, pressing the button to make it go quiet. Glancing over at Roxas, he frowned as he saw that his twin was once again having a nightmare.
He got up, waiting a moment before pouncing. Roxas jerked awake with a yelp, then sighed as he saw Sora's wide, mischevious grin.
"Honestly Sora, why do you enjoy freaking me out like that..." Roxas muttered, pushing Sora off him. Sora obliged, clambering off the bed and waiting as Roxas got up. They headed down to the kitchen, going through the normal ritual of Roxas getting Sora his breakfast despite his complaints, then eventually went to get changed.
When they reached the school, Sora spotted the others waiting at the gate. He grinned, waving, and Kairi waved back. Sora happily ran over to them, dragging Roxas behind him.
As Kairi started talking to Sora, Lea nudged Roxas and whispered something to him that only made Roxas look confused. Sora nearly sighed at his brother's complete lack of ability to see the fact that Lea liked him...but he wasn't going to tell him. Let him work it out.
Sora turned back to the red head infront of him, smiling brightly to show her he was listening. She really was beautiful...It was a times like these that he wished he could speak, if only to tell her that, but he knew there was no point to wishful thinking.
Maybe he could get Riku to tell her for him? Roxas would likely stumble over his words or not understand what Sora wanted to say, while Riku could understand Sora almost as easily as Roxas and seemed pretty interested in Xion.
Period 2 was PE, one of Sora's favourite lessons. It was one of the only ones which didn't require talking, just moving, and he loved sports. The coach seemed pretty pleased with him too, so that was a bonus. It was weird, because Roxas was pretty hopeless at any type of activity that didn't involve climbing or dodgeball.
Luckily for Roxas, that was what they were doing today. As everyone went to the centre of the room, the PE teacher, Mr Leonhart - who preferred to be referred to by Leon -, strode up.
"Alright everyone!" he said, attracting their attention and making them go quiet. "We'll be doing dodgeball today, so I want you to get into two equal teams."
As the class groaned and got up, quickly heading to friends and trying to get themselves into roughly equal teams, Sora saw Roxas hesitate. Rolling his eyes, he ran over to his twin and grabbed his arm, giving him a wide grin. He glanced about before seeing the others and dragging Roxas over to them.
Everyone soon went quiet, looking over at Leon. He glanced around, quickly doing a mental count, then sighed.
"Alright, someone from you lot will have to go over to the other group," he said, looking over at the group the twins and their friends were in.
As everyone shuffled about uncertainly, not really willing to be parted, Sora glanced at Roxas. The blonde looked confused for a moment, then understood and blinked before grinning.
Sora padded over to the other group, much to the surprise of the class and teacher. They'd assumed the two boys wouldn't want to be separated.
After a moment of silence, Leon shook his head.
"Alright, you lot, bibs! Get into position!" he ordered, stepping back as the students hurried over to the box with the bibs in.
Once everyone was ready, Leon glanced around. Finally he nodded.
"And...begin!"
The students ran for the balls in the middle, a few half-heartedly and others enthusiastically. As the balls were soon being thrown around, several people getting hit out almost immediately, one thing suddenly became obvious to everyone in the hall.
Sora and Roxas weren't moving.
The two of them stood exactly parallel to each other, exactly the same distance away. They stared at each other, and didn't even flinch when they nearly got hit several times.
A few students, noticing that they weren't doing anything, decided they were easy pickings and threw some of the balls at them, hoping to get them out.
The boys suddenly reached out, grabbing one each, remaining calm as the others flew past them. For a moment they were still, then they drew back before throwing at each other.
Same movement. Same time. Perfect sync.
They would likely have hit each other if they hadn't suddenly snapped out of their little staring contest, dodging the other's shot and running across the field, grabbing some more ammo as they went. What ensued was quickly a dodgeball war; the two boys enthusiasm to try and hit each other rubbed off on everyone else, and soon everyone was squealing and laughing as they hit each other.
Eventually Leon had to call it a draw, because soon everyone was out except the twins, and they refused to throw in case the other caught it and they got pulled out.
A/N: soooo...yeah. Weird awesome dodgeball match. Don't even ask.
