Rating for later chapters!!

Riku stood outside of Sora's house, waiting for his best friend to open the door. If he didn't hurry up they were going to be late for school. Just then the door opened and Sora stood with his bag slung over his shoulder, his eyes were bright as ever.

"Hey Riku, I'm sorry it took me forever," the younger male smiled brilliantly.

"It's okay," Riku stretched and led his friend down the street to school.

"So I'm sorry I couldn't hang out yesterday. Kairi drug me to the movies again." Sora couldn't help the smile on his face.

Riku rolled his eyes, stupid, "It's okay, she's your girlfriend."

Sora smiled, "Yeah she is!"

"Yano sometimes you still act like your 15, Sora."

Sora made a face, "I do not! Besides I'm only 17... Just because I don't act like an old guy like you doesn't make me a little kid."

"Hey I do not act like an old guy!" Riku countered.

"Yeah well you act older than 18!" Sora laughed.

Riku looked at him and shook his head. Thankfully they were almost to school, he didn't want another detention.

The two teens ran up the steps to their school and Riku walked into his first period class, finally on time. He took his usual seat in the class and decided to try to stay awake this time. Riku let his eyes wander around the room, boring.

Just then the door burst open and a tall, red head walked into the room. The teacher looked up not amused and asked him who he was.

"Names Axel, got it memorized?" He grinned his Cheshire cat smile at the teacher who blinked at him then told him to find a seat. Of course the only open seat was near Riku.

"Well looks like I'm going to sit here then," he said proudly to Riku.

"Knock yourself out slick," Riku replied without much care.

Axel shrugged and sat down, his bright green eyes scanned the room, most of the girls seemed to be staring at him or Riku, he couldn't tell, but probably both. He had to admit the teen next to him looked like a god; even if he acted distant.

"What?" Riku spoke quietly to the red head.

"Nothing," Axel noticed he was staring and stopped himself. He had to do something to keep him awake, this class was pointless. Axel busted out a sketch book and flipped to a blank page to begin drawing.

Riku sighed and put his head down on the desk, facing Axel. Slowly he let his eyes slide closed. Axel grinned at the sleeping teen, inspiration. Axel slowly began to sketch out Riku's sleeping form. Oh yeah the boy was beautiful.

Finally the bell rang awaking Riku from his sleep as Axel shut his sketchbook quickly. Riku lifted a slim eyebrow but didn't say anything as he walked out of the classroom.

Riku went through the first part of the day without seeing the redhead again. Riku trudged into the cafeteria and sat down next to Sora and Kairi, they were laughing amongst themselves.

"Hey Riku what's up?" Sora beamed at his friend.

"Nothing much. Just slept through a lot of my classes."

"Nice Riku, hey have you seen that new redhead! He's gorgeous." Kairi giggled.

"Wha?" Sora looked at her with his mouth agape.

"Oh you know I love you!" Kairi giggled at him.

Riku just rolled his eyes. He stetched out and let his eyes scan the cafeteria… what am I looking for! He thought to himself.

Then he saw the red spikes making their way through the cafeteria.

"Oh God…" Riku muttered when the redhead approached. Axel simply winked at the staring Riku and kept walking.

"The fuck?" Riku said, surprised.

Of course neither Sora or Kairi noticed, they were too busy with each other. Riku sighed and put his head down on the table.

Riku went through the rest of the day seeing random glimpses of the lanky red head. He walked out of the school with his black bag slung over his shoulder completely forgetting about Sora. Riku was going to put his headphones in when he heard his name being called.

"Riku!" Said teen spun around and seen a red car with a sunroof pull up to him. He looked inside the window, it was Axel.

"What?" the teen said to him leaning slightly on the open window.

"Want a ride somewhere?" Axel grinned.

"I don't think so," he said.

"Aw c'mon! It's fucking hot out!" Axel's grin never left his face.

Riku knew it wasn't the smartest thing to do but he was tired and it was hot out, so he got into the car. Axel grinned at him before he spoke.

"So Riku, where do yah live?"

Riku told the taller teen where he lived and let his eyes look around the car. It was nice, a leather interior, good sound system, hell it wasn't even messy.

"Nice car," he said nonchalantly.

"She's my baby. So by the way we have homework tonight in that class…" Axel kept his eyes on the road.

"Hmm? Oh I forgot about that. Thanks," Then a thought occurred to him, "Shit I forgot Sora!"

"Your boyfriend?" Axel asked without meaning any harm.

Riku looked at him flustered, "No way, he's my best friend… he's dating Kairi."

"Ooh… I see… so lettme guess you like him but your afraid to let anyone know your not straight." Axel said matter-of-factly.

"What?! No! I'm s-straight…besides even if I wasn't… I don't think he'd be my type… " Riku was blushing and he knew it.

"Yeah, alright. So what would your type be, yano hypothetically speaking," Axel looked amused.

"I, uh…Oh look there's my house!" Riku exclaimed and Axel stopped the car.

"Hey get a hold of me sometime," Axel handed Riku a card with his name and number on it that said Professional Pyro underneath it. Riku took the card and got out of the car and away from the other teen.

Riku scuffed up the stairs and into his bedroom. The teen shut his door before he laid down on his bed. Riku closed his aquamarine eyes and let his mind wander. That stupid redhead was all he could think about. Honestly, what was it? Riku opened his eyes and decided he'd better call Sora before the younger male had a spazz attack.

He picked up his phone and dialed Sora's number. One ring…

"Hello?" Sora answered.

"Hey, Sorry about ditching you at school…" Riku said.

"Yeah what happened? I seen you get into somebody's car."

"Heh heh, yeah… it was … Axel's. He gave me a ride home."

"Oh, I see. Did you know there's a rumor going around that he's gay?"

"No, I didn't, but I had a feeling he was," Riku muttered.

"Oh… well you don't want people to get the wrong idea about you, you know when your hanging around him and such."

"What's that supposed to mean?" Riku asked mildly offended.

"N-nothing, relax Riku. I was just saying you know how people are. Just looking out for yah." Sora said nervously.

"Yeah okay, I'm gunna let you go Sora," Riku said quietly.

"Okay, I'll talk to you later, bye!" with that Sora hung up the phone.

Riku sighed and closed his phone. He didn't mean to get pissed at Sora but it just sort of… happened. Oh well, he'd get over it. Riku sighed and looked at his homework. He really didn't want to do it, but he did it anyway.

By the time he was done with his homework it was almost dark outside, he was never very good at History. He got up and stretched, looking outside. Riku walked outside and started jogging, it usually cleared his head.

As Riku ran all he could think about was Axel, stupid guy. Riku smacked himself on the forehead and cursed out loud, "You're straight! Straight!"

Riku ran down to the beach and threw off his shirt and shoes before he ran into the water. Riku swam out for a while then he laid on his back to float for a while. Eventually Riku swam back to shore, it was totally dark now. Riku laid down on the sand for a while, letting himself relax. After a while he forced himself up and he walked home. As soon as Riku got in his room and hit the bed, he was out like a light.

A/N- I hope you liked it! Let me know.
