Chapter 1
The blonde haired boy ran by the red haired boy, giggling. "Tag your it!" He continued to run in the lush green grass, and hid behind a tree, stifling his giggles. He peeked over and saw no sign of the red haired boy. He turned around and saw Axel in his face.
"Tag your it, Roxas!" The red haired boy poked him, and ran off, leaving Roxas on the tree giggling. He ran and ran as Roxas chased him. Finally he tripped on something and lay there on the ground, laughing so hard his face was red. Roxas stood over him, his hands on his hips, giggling. "Axel you are as red as your hair!" He laughed and lay down next to him.
"So what did you trip over?" Roxas asked, leaning on his elbow now, looking at Axel. He loved the way Axel's green eyes danced in the sunlight. Axel looked over at him and looked at his face. "You know, I really don't know." He sat up and looked at something that sparkled in sunlight, lying on some blades of grass. He picked it up with two fingers and held it up to the sunlight.
The ring was a bluish green. It was crystal clear and it sparkled in the sun. Axel looked behind him to Roxas and giggled when the dancing lights landed on Roxas' blue eyes. The two colors mixed and made such a perfect color. Axel giggled and took Roxas' right hand. He put the ring on his 2nd finger and let go of his hand.
Roxas held up his hand and looked at it. "Aww, gee thanks axel!" He smiled at his red haired friend and stood up stretching. "It's getting dark. My mom is probably calling me." He held out his hand to help Axel up.
Axel took his hand and pulled himself up. "You want me to go home with you? Or do you want to walk alone?" Axel let go of the blonde's hand and grinned. Roxas nodded. "Sure you can but your mom might be worried too..." Axel shook his head. "Nah she won't. I might be 9 years old but damn it that old hag can't boss me around." By now he was doing a heroic stance and pointing to himself, grinning. Roxas giggled when Axel cussed. "Ok well then let's go!"
They began their walk into town from the big green field. The wind was blowing and blew through both of the boy's hair. Their hair was still somewhat short so it didn't blow much hair. After about 15 minutes of aimless chatting and poking, they reached town. Roxas turned to Axel and hugged him. "Thanks Axel. Be careful on your way home! Thanks for the ring again!" Axel nodded and hugged him back. After the embrace, axel turned around and headed back into the field, after waving to Roxas.
Roxas walked along the stone pebbles and towards his house. He opened his door and groaned when he smelled the alcohol. He slammed to the door and instantly regretted it. His mom came around the corner with some empty boxes. "What the hell are you doing here so late, Roxas? I told you to be here half an hour ago! You can't do a damn thing right! Go pack up your damn room we're moving again!" She threw a few boxes at him and walked off after taking a swig of her alcohol which was on the table.
Roxas threw the boxes down as tears started to form. They were moving again, and he just made new friends. How would he tell them goodbye now? He ran to his room, ignoring the clothes and piles of poop in the floor. He landed on his bed, letting his tears flow freely. He sat up and rubbed his eyes. He grabbed a few clothes on his floor and shoved them into his dirty clothes bag. His mom had thrown the boxes into his room while he was crying, and so he picked them up and started putting stuff into it.
After he was done, he lay on his bed and cried some more. He lay in the darkness, thinking about all his friends. Axel, Hayner, Pence, and Olette. He liked them all, they were good friends and he hated to leave without saying goodbye. He let more tears flow freely down his face as he heard a knock on his window. He wiped his eyes hurriedly and sat up.
Axel stood at his window grinning like a maniac. Roxas slowly got up and opened his window, crawling out. He knew that his mom was probably passed out somewhere on the couch. He looked at the red haired boy and hugged him. "Axel we're moving! I don't want to leave everyone! I don't want to!" Axel looked down at the boy who was a bit shorter than him, seeing as he was only 2 years younger. He hugged Roxas back, a tear escaping his own eye.
"Aw.. Roxas I’m sorry buddy. Listen, I'll find you one day and we will be buddies again! I'll even find your other buddies too ok? What are their names? Hater, Punch, and Omelette?" Roxas giggled and looked up, knowing axel was only doing that to cheer him up. "It's Hayner, Pence, and Olette silly!" Axel grinned. "Yea I know buddy. Listen just remember me and it’ll be fine ok?" Roxas nodded, then heard his mom cursing angrily. "My mom's awake now, I better pretend to be asleep. Goodbye, Axel." Roxas waved, new tears forming, and crawled inside the window again. He lay in his bed and waited for the next day to come, with dread.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Roxas sat on the smelly bus once again. He put in his earphones and turned to a random song. He looked out the window and watched the scenery fly by. Finally the bus stopped at the stop he needed to get off. He sighed and grabbed his bag, then walked off. When the bus drove away, he turned and walked across the street to his school. He walked in, waving to a few people he knew.
"Hey Roxy!" Someone with brown spikes and blue eyes came running up to him. He was wearing a shirt that said 'Proud Member of Debate' and some blue jeans. "Hey! Where are you headed?" Roxas looked at him and waved. "Hey Sora. I’m going to the office. I have to get another major. I hate being a library assistant. I'm sure Riku can change my classes for me..." He continued to walk, his blond spikes bouncing with every step, with Sora walking beside him. "So what new class are you going to get?" Sora asked him. He was being very nosey today.
"I don’t know maybe art. It sounds easy and I guess it'll get me outta college right?" He grinned and opened the door to the office. He walked in and went to the counter, Sora walking beside him. "Um excuse me, miss? Is Riku here today?" A girl with long red hair that went to the middle of her back turned around. She was wearing a teacher's uniform. "Oh, hey Roxas!" She waved and looked back. "Yea he's here!"
Roxas raised an eyebrow. "So when did you start becoming an office assistant, Kairi?" Sora giggled and looked behind Kairi as a silver haired boy approached. He was also wearing a teacher's uniform. Sora jumped the counter, almost knocking Kairi down, and glomped Riku. He fell down, and looked up grinning. "Gee Sora, your awfully excited to see me today. Did you miss me over fall break?" Sora grinned and nodded, as Roxas walked over. He stood above them laughing.
"Hey Riku' think you could change my class? I hate being a library assistant." Riku nodded and pushed Sora off. He walked over to a computer and typed for a few. "Ok Roxas, what class do you want?" Roxas looked to Sora, and the brown haired boy nodded. "Art would be fine." Riku nodded and typed a few things, then turned around. "Ok all done. Now leave I have...err.. business to attend to." He smirked and looked over at Sora, who was now resting comfortably on the couch.
Roxas waved to the both of them and walked out. When he passes by the window, he caught a glimpse of what 'business' Riku had to attend to with Sora on the couch. He chuckled and started to walk to his new class, Art. He opened the door and looked around. He saw an empty seat in the back next to his friend, Demyx.
Demyx waved, and pulled his fingers through his messy mullet. He grinned and waved at Roxas as he took a seat next to him. "Hey Roxy what are you doing here in this class?" Roxas turned to look at him, waving. "I got transferred here. Hated my other class." Demyx nodded and jumped to sit on the desk. "So guess who the teacher is?" He asked Roxas, an evil smile playing upon his lips. Roxas shrugged. "Umm... your boy toy?" Demyx nodded. Correct! Roxas sighed and looked at his fingers.
On his right hand on the 2nd finger, there was a crystal ring. He always liked that ring and can't remember how he got it. He kept it though, because every time he thought about throwing it away, he felt guilty, like someone important gave it to him. He looked up as someone with pink hair walked in. The teacher cleared his throat and gave an evil look at Demyx. The mullet boy sat in his seat obediently. "I see we have a new student today! It's Roxas!" Marluxia cheered and laughed, the rest of the class laughing as well.
Then the class grew silent when they heard a knock on the door. The principal walked in along with a guy who had amazing red spiky hair and blazing green eyes. Those eyes scanned the room and settled on Roxas. He walked to an empty desk in the front of the class and sat down. Roxas felt something inside him, like he knew this person, when those amazing green eyes looked at him.
A few minutes later, Demyx waved a hand in front of his face. "Roxas buddy you ok?" Roxas snapped out of his state of blankness and looked at his friend. "Yea, I’m ok. Why do you ask?" Demyx grinned and gestured behind him. "Because, besides you being new, the other new kid is also my art partner." Roxas looked to where Demyx was pointing and sucked in a breath. The red haired guy's were so amazingly green. Instantly Roxas looked down to his ring, which reminded him of his eyes and the new kid's eyes, fused together.
The red haired guy looked to where Roxas was looking and smiled. "Nice ring. My name's Axel. And you are...?" Instantly when Roxas heard the name, a memory came back. He never knew the memory existed, It just came out of nowhere.
"Axel you are as red as your hair!" Roxas was standing over a kid with short red hair. He was laughing at the kid beneath him, who was bright red from.....
Roxas shook his head and looked at Axel. He held out his hand and shook it. "I’m Roxas. nice to meet you." Demyx giggled like a schoolgirl and gave Roxas a note. Roxas opened it and read it, then laughed.
"The new kid is kind of cute, you know?"
Roxas folded the note and stuck it in his pocket. "Demyx, Marluxia might get mad if he finds out..." Demyx roared with laughter, causing Marly to look at them in the back. Sure he was teaching a lesson but he didn’t mind it if they all talked, since they were Demyx's friends. "Roxy, Marly never gets mad at me, don't you know?" Rosa grinned, nodding at the theory. "I guess your right." Axel looked at them both, a happy gleam in his eyes. "The teacher is your..." Demyx turned to axel and nodded. "Yep. For 3 years now it's quite nice." Roxas shook his head, a smirk forming. "You are so crazy, dem-dem." Demyx turned to look at him, a playful furry in his eyes. "Don't call me that!" They all laughed.
