ooc: Dunno if this is as good as before, but here it goes! Enjoy! Thank you everyone!
Chapter 4
Another morning, another sad day.
Kairi walked to her locker, to put her books away and look at her schedule. What classes does she have today?
“Hey Kairi.” Sora greeted from behind her.
This startled Kairi and she dropped her books. She turned around and saw Sora, grinning.
“Oh, Sora. Don’t do that again!” She said, as she bent down to pick up her books.
“I’m sorry, Kairi. Didn’t know you would be surprised.” Said Sora, bending down to help her.
They soon finished picking up the books. (Hah, you guys thought that I would do the hand touch coincidence, did ya?)
“Hey Sora, hey Kairi.” Said Namine.
“Hi Namine.” Said Kairi, smiling at her.
“Hey Namine,” Sora said, grinning at her.
As Namine turned to look at Sora, she saw Riku, who was limping. God knows why, but we’re gonna find that out.
“Riku! What happened?” Namine rushed over.
“Woah, Namine likes Riku?” Whispered Sora to Kairi.
“She sure does.” Kairi whispered back.
“Riku! Do you need any help? Sora! Help Riku!” She shouted.
“It’s ok, Namine, I think your help would be fine enough.” Riku said, laughing.
Namine blushed. “Oh, alright then.” She said, helping him walk.
“So...um...what exactly happened, Riku?” Sora asked, trying not to laugh.
But the moment Namine glared at him, he kept a straight face, making Kairi laugh.
“I was being chased by a dog. And my leg hurts now.” He said, rubbing it.
“Oh, poor Riku!” Namine said.
This made Kairi burst out laughing more.
And seeing Kairi laugh made Sora laugh, and seeing Kairi and Sora laugh made Riku laugh, and seeing Riku laugh made Namine laugh.
And when Leon, Yuffie, Cloud and Aerith came over to say hi, instead of seeing their normal happy friends, they saw crazy people laughing like mad cows!
“What happened to my friends!” Shouted Yuffie.
“These are your friends, Yuffie.” Said Squall. “They just changed into a bunch of crazy mad laughing cows.”
When Yuffie heard ‘crazy mad laughing cows’, she too, burst out laughing.
“Why did I ever say that…” Squall groaned.
Soon, everyone that passed by looked at the group strangely. (This happened to my friends and I. And it made us laugh even more.)
“Ok, uh…guys, I think you should stop.” Said Aerith.
“I think we should go, I don’t want to be known as Cloud, the guy in the crazy group.” Whispered Cloud.
Aerith giggled. “Don’t you make me start laughing now!” She said.
Cloud gasped and quickly took her away, yelling, “We’re going to class first!”
Aerith giggled the whole way.
“Oh great. I should go too.” Squall muttered and he crept away sneakily. But sometimes things don’t go as planned.
“Squallie! Why are you going away?” Cried Yuffie.
Oh no! Run! Run! He thought. He was about to run when Yuffie jumped on top of him.
“AH!” He yelled before he fell face down.
“Squallie?” Yuffie asked on top of him.
“Get off of me, Yuffie.” Squall grunted.
“Oopsie! Sorry Squallie!” She said as she got of him.
Squall got up and dusted himself. “It’s Leon.”
“Leon!” The once again Crazed-girl came running to him. (Remember chapter 2? Ok, let’s just call her…uh…Samantha…I guess.)
“Oh no.” Said Squall.
“Not her again.” Said Yuffie, groaning.
“Leon!” She shouted.
He just groaned. Yuffie jumped in front of Squall and shouted, “Stay away from Squall!”
“Like I’ll listen to you!” Said Samantha.
Before Yuffie could stop Samantha from tackling Squall, an arm grabbed hers and she felt pain.
She was dragged to another person, but she shut her eyes because of the pain. “Ow! What the hell you do that for?” She said angrily.
“Forgive me, Yuffie.” Said the voice. Oh no…
“Ansem!” Yuffie said with venom in her voice.
Kairi, Sora, Namine and Riku stopped laughing by then, and they were trying to get Yuffie away from Ansem.
“Yuffie!” Said Kairi.
“Let go off her!” Said Sora.
Namine just looked shocked at Yuffie.
Riku was just growling.
Squall was trying to get Samantha off of him while shouting, “Ansem! Let her go!”
“Don’t want to.” He said, and dragged Yuffie with him.
She tried to stop him, by pulling back. She could always fight him, but everyone knew fighting in school isn’t the place to do so.
She held her arm and tried to stop him from dragging her away.
Then finally, Squall broke free from Samantha and ran to help Yuffie. The moment Squall came running, Ansem let go off Yuffie. He knew that Squall would punch him. Coward, that Ansem.
Squall just glared at Ansem and told him to back off, in the background, Samantha was mad and Yuffie had heart eyes.
The bell rang. Ansem smirked and walked off. Samantha stomped away angrily.
Sora, Riku, Kairi, and Namine were asking Yuffie if she was ok.
“I’m fine, guys. I just feel a bit numb in my arm.” She said, rubbing it.
“Yuffie.” Said Squall.
She laughed nervously. “Did I make a mistake just now?” She asked.
“No. What I mean to say was…thanks.” He said.
“Huh? For what?” She asked, confused. (Hehe…confuzzled.)
“For…I guess for protecting me from Samantha.” He said.
“Wow! Squall thanked me!” Yuffie said.
“Yeah, and if we don’t hurry, we’ll be late for class.” Said Riku.
“Oh shit!” They all said simultaneously, except Riku.
They all ran to their respective classes.
-BREAK-
“Cloud, we should go get our food first, it seems as if these guys are still pondering on what to get.” Said Aerith, giggling.
“Um, but Aerith, I don’t really feel like eating…” Said Cloud.
“You must eat! You’ll starve later on!” Aerith shouted in his face.
“Ok…” Cloud said, scared.
Kairi laughed. “Sora, wanna go too? I’m sure we’ll find something there to eat.” Kairi said.
“Sure.” He grinned and got up.
“How long do you keep that grin?” Asked Kairi giggling.
“Uh…I dunno.” Sora said. GRINNING.
Kairi laughed as they walked off.
“Well, I’m not hungry.” Said Riku.
“Really? Aren’t you thirsty at least? You did get chased by a dog this morning.” Said Namine, worried.
“Ok, maybe a drink will be fine.” Said Riku.
“I’ll get it!” Namine jumped up and ran before Riku could stop.
“Um…ok!” He shouted back.
“Well, I’m not eating or drinking.” Said Yuffie.
“Why?” Asked Squall.
“No appetite.” She said.
“OK…” Squall said. Yuffie always has an appetite.
“What about Aerith?” He asked.
Riku just watched the two. But soon after, Namine came with her food and his drink.
“Riku, I think you should eat a bit. Here, eat some of mine!” She said.
“That’s ok, Namine, I---“Riku couldn’t finish his sentence because Namine stuffed a piece of chicken in his mouth.
“Chew…swallow...yes!” Said Namine giggling.
“But Namine,” Riku swallowed and continued, when he was about to say something, Namine stared at him creepily and he said, “Ok, Ok, I’ll share your food.” He said, smiling.
“Goodie!” Namine said giddily.
“Aw…how cute!” Yuffie squealed.
Squall just had a sweat drop. Namine and Riku just blushed.
Sora and Kairi came back, and they were arguing.
“No, Kairi, I’ll help you carry the food.” Said Sora.
“No Sora! Your hands are full!” She said.
“Aww….a lover’s quarrel!” Yuffie squealed.
Squall sweat dropped. Namine and Riku grinned. Kairi and Sora blushed.
Soon after, Aerith and Cloud came and sat.
“Aw…Aerith and Cloud, sitting on a tree, K-I-S-S--“
“Shut it, Yuffie.” Said Cloud.
“Yuffie, Leon…I don’t see your food. Where is it?” Asked Aerith, suspicious.
“Uh…um…we finished eating fast.” Said Yuffie.
Squall just sweat dropped like crazy.
“Oh, really? Ok!” Said Aerith. Cloud glared at Yuffie and Leon.
Yuffie grinned. Squall sighed.
A few times when Kairi turned to talk with Sora, she saw Ansem walking around, smirking. What is he up to, now?
“Hey Sora, what do you have next?” She asked him.
“I have...nothing, I guess.” He said.
“Cool! Then we can hang out during free time!” She said.
“Yeah, sure!” He said.
“Aw…Kairi and Sora, sitting on a tree, K-I-S-S--“Yuffie started.
Kairi glared at Yuffie and she said, “Uh…kidding, kidding, kidding!” She finished the song like that.
Namine giggled as she fed Riku from time to time. Yuffie was about to tease them, but Namine caught her and glared at her.
“No fun now!” Said Yuffie, pouting.
Squall just rested his chin on his hand and smirked at Yuffie.
The bell rang. “Well, I’m off.” Said Yuffie, skipping.
“I’ll go too.” Leon said.
“Cloud, we have math, right?” Aerith asked sweetly.
“Of course.” He grinned and got up.
And they went too after saying bye.
“I have…I forgot.” Riku said. “Oh yeah, I have P.E.”
“Really? I have that too!” Namine said excitedly.
“Cool. Let’s go together.” Riku said.
“Ok!” Namine said blushing.
After they left, Sora and Kairi burst out laughing.
“So Sora, do you want to do something or you wanna walk around?” Kairi asked.
“A walk sounds good.” Sora said getting up. He held out his hand for her to take.
“Thank you, prince.” Kairi said, giggling.
“Anything for you, princess.” He said, bowing.
Kairi laughed.
They walked around, some students saying hi to them.
As they were walking, they saw Ansem…
“Uh…Kairi, what’s Ansem doing here?” Asked Sora.
“He’s free at this time, like us. Before you were here, I always went somewhere he would never look for.” She said.
“Oh. So if he found you, he’d flirt with you, right?” Asked Sora.
“Yeah, but it’s ok. I can take care of myself.” Said Kairi, doing a peace sign.
“Cute, Kairi. Very cute.” Ansem said in front of them.
“Ansem.” Kairi said.
Sora stood in front of Kairi. “What do you want?” Said Sora.
“Why do you care, weakling?” Said Ansem looking down on him.
“I will protect Kairi from a bada** like you.” Sora said, warningly.
“Foolish attempt. You’re no match for me.” Ansem said.
“How would you know? I may not look strong, but what matters is what is in me. Not out.” Sora said.
“Foolish words yet again. Don’t get on my nerves.” Ansem said.
“Then why don’t you go away from Kairi, then?” Sora said, fighting back with his words.
“You have made me mad. Now you asked for it. After school. We duel.” Said Ansem.
“You’re on.” Sora said, grinning, looking forward to the duel. (Like the very first Kingdom Hearts 2 wallpaper, when we didn’t know who Diz was…yeah.)
Ansem left looking a bit mad.
Kairi snapped out of shock because of Sora’s bravery. “Sora! Why did you do that?”
“What? I wanna protect you. And I always wanted to have a challenge with this guy.” He said, placing his hands behind his head and grinned.
“But Sora, he might be really strong!” Kairi said. “You shouldn’t have done that!” She scolded him.
“But Kairi…” Sora said, giving the (dun dun dun!) Puppy eyes look!
“Oh no…” Kairi said, putting a hand over her face. “Don’t do that…”
He simply gave the eyes and smiled cutely like a small boy with his new toy car.
“Aww…how cute!” Kairi started pinching his cheeks.
“Ow ok Kairi I get it, I’m sorry!” Moaned Sora.
“Good. Next time don’t go making some challenge to some jackass.” Said Kairi as she walked ahead of him.
“Yes, Kairi.” But she didn’t know that he was crossing his fingers.

At the same time…
Yuffie walked to her class. She hummed a merry tune and skipped to class. But she didn’t see Squall walking in front, so she ended up bumping into him and dropped all her books.
“Ow…so sorry. Didn’t see ya.” She said.
“Yeah, you should be.” Said Squall.
She looked up and said, “Squall? Well, if it’s Squall, then I don’t need to apologize. It’s an everyday kinda thing.” She said.
“That’s rude, Yuffie.” Said Squall.
“Hmph. You’re mean too, Squall.” She replied.
She bent down and picked up her books, and was about to march off when…
“How am I mean? I’ve helped you a lot.” He said.
“You’re mean because you never look happy!” She shouted at him and stomped off.
“Happy…?” He whispered and went to his class, thinking.
……………………………………………………………………………………………..
P.E. with Namine and Riku.
“Ok, we’re gonna play basketball. Yeah, basketball. Girls ain’t supposed to be good in this, but they’re not supposed to be scared of the ball. Got me?” Said Cid, their PE teach.
“Yes, Sir.” Said the class.
Namine tensed. No, she wasn’t scared of the ball, she just couldn’t play. She didn’t know how to play. She always didn’t do well in basketball. Oh no…I’ll make a total fool of myself in front of Riku!
“S-Sir…may I excuse myself?” She asked Cid hesitantly.
“Now why is that?” Cid asked.
“Because…I have a headache.” She said.
“Uh…o…k…fine then, you’re excused.” He said, not really happy. But he stayed in his normal mood.
Namine sat down on a bench, watching Cid making teams.
“Now, since not everyone is in the team, they will be substitutes. That means you guys will have the enough amount of time to play like the people before you.” Said Cid.
So Riku was a substitute. He went over to Namine and asked, “I know that you don’t have a headache. You just fed cute ol’ me at lunch!” He said to her, grinning.
This made her laugh. “Yeah, I was feeding cute ol’ you at lunch. It’s just that…I just can’t play basketball well. I totally suck at it.” She said, looking at the ground.
“Well, why don’t you try? It doesn’t hurt to try.” He said.
“Well…if I had enough courage as to do that, I would.” She said.
Riku smiled. “That’s ok…hey, why don’t I teach you how to play basketball after school or something? You can come to my house, or I could come to your house.” He said, grinning.
Namine looked up brightly at his suggestion. She nodded happily.
