Holy Hell High

[Rikugurl]

Ven frowned as he looked at the ground. He hated this... feeling like his own father was lecturing them.
He'd rather that than his little brother.

His fist tightened as his cheeks grew more and more red... until he burst.
"THE FUCK!? You know, when you start fucking, you just can't fucking stop! I begged Zack to fucking fuck me, even when we were in his own home. No one would of known! I just wanted to so bad! All of his other friends had done it... and I felt like I was bringing Zack down because I'm not old enough! I love him and he loves me so I don't know why we can't fucking have sex together!"

He shivered as his eyes started to darken... more in pain than in anger.
"I just feel like I'm bringing him down. You know... I stopped him from joining the military with his best friend. I told him to stay... that... that I loved him and if I allowed him to go... and he ended up dead.... that.... it would be my fault..."
Tears started to fill his eyes as he choked. "I even fucking cried.... in front of everyone... and Zack.... he drove me home and said he wouldn't leave me... That was the day.... we started to go out."

His eyes darkened once more as he made a fist again. "But I turned into some stupid fucking horny brat... and found out that pain really turned me on. Terra and I... we fight all the fucking time... and... while we were fighting that day we went sledding... I got hard and...."

He looked down at the floor and shook his head. "We just.... haven't had the guts to... tell Zack... and... it's all my fault... I.... I just can't stop...."

[Reno]

Terra's eyes squeezed shut, his heart shuddering with hurt. "I just wanted to so bad!"
Was that... all this was to Ven? Was there really... nothing else?

Roxas stood there listening to his brother make his case. He shut his eyes shaking his head and this time he looked sad. After his brother trailed off he looked to Terra. In his eyes was anger and pain.

"What are your reasons?"
"None of your fucking business." The brunette snapped harshly.
Ah. That was all Roxas needed to hear to confirm his suspicions. He looked at Ven, his own brother, and sighed.

"Ven... how would you feel if I had been the one to go behind your back, betray your trust and have sex with Zack? Then when you find out all Zack can say he was too impatient to wait and all I have to say is... I really liked him. How loved would you feel? How betrayed? How hurt?" He could see the guilt mounting on his brother.
"What if I had NEVER found you Ven when would you ever told him? How much longer would you of let this... this charade continue?!" He stamped his foot. "Damn it Ven, it's already gone too far as it is, but fuck, if you let it continue anymore, but if you let it go on ANY further it won't just be your relationship with Zack that you could be destroying without repair. It'll be your friendship with Terra too - someone you've been friends with a damn long time! I know you badmouth him all the time and fight with him all the time but that never stopped your friendship before - but now, not only were you playing your best friend like a fool and toying with his feelings, you just admitted all you wanted from him was sex! That NOTHING else in your friendship was ever important to you!"
He shook his head. "If you don't go and tell Zack right fucking now and start trying to heal the scars your gonna cause on all three of you, you might as well just start saying 'fuck this!' to the two of the most important relations you ever had!"

He turned on the brunette. "And fuck Ter, I thought you were the smart one, what the hell are you doing, fucking your brother's boyfriend?! Did you think their wouldn't be any repercussions?! Zack's your brother, someone you grew up with and played with and told secrets to all your life. Someone you cared about you unconditionally all your life - and your willing to throw that all away for a quick fuck?! Zack might very well never talk to you again - you'll have to live with that for the rest of your LIFE."
Terra's hands curled into fists at his sides, his body shaking slightly as the other bombarded him with shame.
"And how... how could you cheapen your feelings for Ven like that?"

Terra raised his head, eyes blazing with denial. He did not 'cheapen his feelings'. "What the FUCK does that mean?!"
"It means, jackass, that if you don't like Ven, don't fuck with his mind by having sex with him - I'll fucking kick your ass if that's all it was. But if you DO like Ven then don't fuck him when he's in a relationship. Not only is it unfair to him and to your brother but to yourself as well! You both deserve to be loved, but right now I can't see either of you two having the fucking RIGHT to say you love anyone at all! If you cared about Ven at ALL Terra, you wouldn't put him through this sort of pain!"
The brunette was shaking all over and his eyes fell to the floor, unable to face the blond any longer.

He turned on Ven. "YOU don't know what LOVE really means Ven, so stop saying it. How can you claim to love anyone if you can't even wait a few months for them?!"

[Rikugurl]

Ven's eyes widened as he felt more and more pain. God... this... was too much.
He wanted a fucking razor... but he knew... he couldn't escape this time.
He... he didn't deserve it to be released.

He continued to look down, his eyes watering more and more until it couldn't be blinked away anymore. Tears started to run down his face. Not from sadness... but from shame.

Roxas was right... about everything.

When his twin was done, he put his palm on his face and gripped his hair, his face full of pain.
He... didn't love Zack did he...? It was true... He wasn't that cute little boy that he was last year... The one that looked up at Zack with big blue eyes full of tears, begging him not to leave because he loved him so much.

Ven thought he was all grown up now.
All he proved to himself though was that... he had become nothing but a fucking cumdump for both Tellus brothers...

Slowly, the blonde lifted his head, his face a mess with tears and red from the guilt.
"I.... please... don't tell anyone about this....." He choked before turning and opening the door.
Silently, he walked down the stairs and out the door.

He pulled his hood over his head, seeing that his hat was still in the theaters, before walking outside into the cold.
He pulled out his new cell phone that he had bought himself and speed dialed Zack.
He waited a moment before hearing a chipper voice.
"Zack.... come pick Terra and I up now.....please. We're at the Common Theater."

[Reno]

Roxas shut his eyes, nodding slowly at the request. He knew what Ven meant... it look like he was ready to tell. He watched his twin leave the room.

Terra shut his eyes, hearing the pain laden in the choked up voice. He knew Ven was crying... and it stung knowing he had helped cause it. Fuck, why did Roxas have to be fucking right?!

What the hell was he thinking, having sex with Ven. Seducing him into it... did he think one day the blonde would just turn around and declare his love for him? Did he honestly believe that was how it fucking worked?!

And Zack... god how could he just... do that to his brother? Who... who ever did something so fucking immoral and wrong?! He had to be the worst sibling in the entire fucking universe.

His eyes opened, looking at Roxas who was still staring at the spot his brother had vacated. "Thank you Roxas..." The blonde looked at him in surprise and confusion. Terra just shook his head and turned, heading for the door. He didn't want to explain that he was thanking the other... for reminding him how much of a dumbshit he was.

He walked out the door, closing it faintly behind him, before walking after Ven slowly. He came up beside the other, hearing him talking to Zack. God... what have they done?

Zack was reading a letter he had received recently from Angeal, smiling fondly at the others teasing jabs and typical remarks. He stopped at the last line of the letter.
'So when are you going to finally pack up and join me?
He frowned some but sighed, thinking of Ven. He smiled. "Sorry Angeal no can do." He said to the empty room, as if his best friend could hear him.

He heard the ringing of his phone suddenly and laughed at the hard death metal. Speak of the devil! He grabbed it of the coffee table and flipped it open. "Ven I was just thinking about you!"

His smile quickly fell though to a expression of concern as he heard the others voice. "Ven...? Is everything alright?" The other only repeated himself more urgently. "Alright, alright baby clam down i'll be there in a sec." He frowned before stuffing his phone into his pocket and racing into the ktichen, snatching up his coat and keys, his heart racing with worry.

Did Ven and Terra get into another fight? Though that wasn't really unusual... but what if this one was really bad? He wondered concernedly as he threw open his car door and stuck the keys in the ignition.

He peeled out of the driveway, fingers drumming on the steering wheel. Calm down, don't overreact, calm down! He ordered himself, shaking his head. Maybe the movie - weren't they watching that scary one? - was really scary or demented and freaked Ven out and he left before it ended.

Yeah... yeah that was probably it. That sounded much more logical. More linear. What else could cause his boyfriend such distress. "Fuck I knew I should of gone with them." Zack berated himself angrily. Who sent their boyfriend out to watch a scary movie ALONE?

Weren't like you supposed to watch them together so if you got scared, you held on to each other. He shook his ehad, reaching the theater in record time.

[Rikugurl]

Ven swallowed as he heard Zack on the other end.
Always so....sweet.

He closed his phone and slowly walked to the curb, sitting down and burying his head into his arms that wrapped around his knees.
Zack was going to race over here, act like such a fucking amazing boyfriend... win a fucking amazing boyfriend award... and only for his heart to be crushed by his boyfriend that won the fucking cumbump boyfriend of the year.

He felt Terra sit down besides him... but he didn't lift his head.
How could he try and justify what he did to Zack...and Terra?
How could he even try to make excuses?

And how... was he going to tell Zack....?

Just as he was thinking of something else, he heard a car drive up and the sound of a door closing. Blue eyes slowly moved up, up and up to see...
"Zack...."

[Reno]

Terra followed the other sitting down on the curb next to him. He didn't know what was going to hurt worse... watching Zack be obliviously sweet... or watching his reactions as his whole life crashed to pieces...

They sat their in silence, the wind whipping against their bodies without mercy. It stung their faces and tore at their clothes, trying to goad the two into shivering and shaking with it's cold. But Terra barely felt it... all he felt was this numb realization that he had fucked up bad. Read, real bad...

and there would be nothing he could do to fix it once it shattered all over the ground. He saw and heard the familiar car drive up and then a door slammed as Zack rushed from the car.

The black-haired male spotted his boyfriend and brother almost instantly. It was hard to mistake that swirly blonde hair or the bulky figure of his younger sibling. He puleld over and cut the engine before jumping from the car and going to Ven.

The other looked up at him and his eyes were red and tears were shining in his eyes. "B-Baby..." He knelt down quickly, reaching out and cupping his cheek in his hand, brushing away some of the tears, but frowned more when the other flinched away from his touch. "What's wrong Ven, did the movie freak you out?"

"Zack... We have to tell you something really important." Terra murmured softly, making the elder male looked over.
"Heh, that you're afraid of horror movies?" Zack joked a nervous grin flitting over his face. But his gut was twisting with how... wrong this all felt. There was something much much bigger going on here then just a movie. And it only grew worse when Terra shook his head, shut his eyes and an expression of hurt coming to his face. "What... happened?"

[Rikugurl]

Ven shivered as he heard the sweet voice.
So... it begins. The beginning of the end.
He was hoping he would never have to feel like this...

He whimpered softly as he felt the tears being brushed away before...pulling away. "I---" Terra cut him off, giving him the chance to stand and shove his hands in his pocket. He could see the look on Zack's face. The cute 'oh jeez, let nothing be seriously wrong' look.

When he heard the special words... he sighed.
Terra had said to be blunt... and like he figured... there's no way... that he could even try to come up with an explanation.

Just.... look right though him...

"Zack..." He caught the attention from the black haired man.
"I've been.... cheating on you.... for the past two weeks.... with Terra...."
How much more blunt could that be?

[Reno]

Zack frowned but looked up at Ven who had suddenly stood and was looking down at him imploringly.
"Zack..."
The elder male in question stood up at the other;s call, his eyes full of worry and confusion.
"I've been.... cheating on you.... for the past two weeks.... with Terra...."

...................................................................

Zack blinked at that information, taking it in but not understand it.
cheating on you....
N-No way, Ven didn't... Ven loved him he wouldn't...
for the past two weeks....
He would of noticed something. H-He would have... would of...
with Terra....
No... no his brother would NEVER.... do that to him....
His blue eyes were wide, and slowly he turned his gaze to his younger sibling who was still sitting on the curb his head bowed.

"Ha... hahahah...." Zack started to laugh, his smile shaky and fragile. Both of them looked at him, confused because most people would not laugh over information like this. "That... that was a real mean trick you guys. Now funs over. Haha, l-lets just you know... get in the car and d-drive home..." He said, fingers curling around his keys, the jingling loud and overbearing in the thick silence.

Terra slowly stood, keeping his distance from both of them, but his movement drew Zack's eyes back to him. "Zack... we aren't lying. We've... been having relations since the day we went sledding...."

The day... they went sledding...?
His mouth dropped open in surprise... and dawning horror at his quickening realization was showing on his face.
His fingers brushed along the forming bruise on the blonde's face eyes full of concern over how pale his boyfriend appeared. "How long were you two outside? You look like your getting sick Ven."
"We were out for awhile... I wouldn't be surprised if I was catching something..." Oh... oh he caught something all right. But it wasn't any damn sickness that was for sure.

And suddenly it all made sense. The nervousness during work, the distance on the phone, the ending of the calls much quicker than usual...
he had been suspected Ven was hiding something from him all along. But... but he thought maybe it was something stupid that he was overreacting about like having lost one of his gifts to him or having gotten grounded further for some reason...
This... this was not...

Zack took a step back, swallowing hard the action painful against his suddenly dry throat. "When... when you say relations I mean... you two are... are dating now and stuff or-"
"We fucked Zack. Four fucking times." Terra snapped blunt and harsh, fists clenched at his sides and nails digging into his palms as tears suddenly formed in his eyes falling hot and fast down his face for the first time... in a long time. He bowed his head, his voice choked. "I'm sorry... I'm so sorry Zack..."

The keys fell from Zack's hands, clattering softly into the snow. The male looked at his younger brother who was shaking all over... and crying like he hadn't seen him do in years. He slowly looked over at Ven, the expression on his face begging for the other to prove this crazy situation wrong, pleading with him to... too tell him it was all a lie. "Ven..."

[Rikugurl]

Ven's eyes closed as Terra started to talk... and reveal... their actions. He bit his lips, not realizing how... how fucking horrible this was until it was played back to him. And Zack.... not knowing....anything.... so innocent and....

He choked, tears rolling down his cheek as he heard Terra choke. Terra was the strongest person he knew... hearing Terra's wall break... made him feel....
God...

When he heard his name, he knew it was his turn.

Sad, guilty, reddened, and pain stricken blue eyes looked up at Zack, his face red from the cold with a haunting paleness from how numb he felt inside.
He could only look into those eyes for a moment before looking away. "It's.... it's true Zack. We-we were going to tell you when it first happened b-but.... we...we couldn't do it. D-days passes and.... w-we just kept...."

His shoulder's shook as he tried to hold back from bursting out crying. "I... want to apologize... and....and tell you that I love you.... b-but my latter.... how can I...I s-say that I love you w-when I hurt you s-so badly. I....I guess I-I don't know wha......what love is...I.....I...." He choked, right on the edge of breaking down.

Our anniversary... was in.... 5 more days....

[Reno]

Zack trembled some, hearing Ven's voice coming back at him - but unlike any time before when he had seen his boyfriend cry... it didn't incite him to run over and hug him and kiss away his tears.

No... no he felt mad. Mad at both of them actually. That they DARE fucking cry over their sins when he was the one who should be upset. Zack's eyes shut, his face twisting in an angry, pained grimace. "You're right Ven. You don't what love is. And I... I'm not going to stick around and wait... wait for you to fucking figure out what the hell it is!!" He yelled, his voice reaching an octave it never had before. He'd never shouted at the younger before.

"Oh... and Terra? Don't you dare fucking come back to the apartment. I don't want to see you... for a fucking long, long time." The male hissed, glaring at the younger - his own flesh and blood.
"Z-Zack..." Terra stuttered, mind racing to come up with something he could say - but cried in surprise as his brother crossed the distance between them and suddenly punched him hard in the face. The brunette went spiraling onto the sidewalk, white stars sparkling in his vision and the coppery metal of blood in his mouth. He groaned, spitting some out watching it color the snow red. He stayed on the ground, afraid of getting hit again no matter how much he deserved it.

Zack whirled on Ven, having half the mind to punch him as well - but then he froze. He had a better blow to deal to him. The black-haired male lent down, snatching up his keys. "I guess you can keep this now." He reached into his pocket, pulling out a small box. "Wear it when you actually fucking mean to keep your oaths." He threw the box at Ven's feet before turning around. "Goodbye." He snapped before walking back to his car, getting in... and driving away.

Inside the box, was a simple small ring made of gold, a small blue sapphire embedded in the top. A promise ring... for their anniversary. The promise already broken.

[Rikugurl]

Ven winced as he heard Zack's voice, loud and clear. It rang through the silence of the winter night... and was more chilling than any cold wind.

He swallowed as Zack turned his attention to Terra and in an instant, he looked over, eyes widening as he saw the harmless man belt Terra in the face, actually able to knock him down in one blow.
That was when Zack turned to him. He shuffled back a bit, some instinct fear in his eyes, knowing if Zack could bring down Terra in one blow...

His guard slowly weakened as he saw Zack reach into his pocket... and threw something at his feet. His eyes just stared down at it, jerking as he heard the angry slam of the car door... and the screeching of the tires as he sped off like a bat out of Hell.

Ven slowly reached down, picking up the box. His frozen fingers opened it slowly, looking inside for his eyes to only widen more. The ring was picked up and the box fell back into the snow. His eyes continued to study it, tears running down his face... and each second, his eyes became more and more lifeless.
Inside the ring was an engravement.

Zack & Ventus

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!" The blonde cried out in defeat, clasping the ring in both hands as he fell onto his knees into the snow. His shoulders shook as he cried hard.

[Reno]

Terra looked up as he heard the car screeching away... and then looked towards Ven, seeing the shattered look appear on the younger's face as the a ring was taken from the box. His heart crumpled as the other cried and he reached up gripping hard onto his brown hair, and he squeezed his eyes shut.

What have I done? WHAT HAVE I DONE?!


~~~

Friday. The last day before vacation. The school was abuzz with excitement, almost all the students having finish their finals - specifically the freshmen and the seniors. Some juniors weren't as lucky and the rare sopomore class as well.

for the rest, the day was spent goofing off and having fun.

Except for a select few.

"Hey Ven, are you sure you're alright?!" Sora called after his brother as the blonde hurried off. He only made a limp hand gesture, not even turning to look. The brunette frowned, his stomach a ball of nervousness before he looked to Roxas who stood beside him, seeing how sad the blond looked. "What happened to him?"

"I can't say." Roxas murmured, shaking his head. He reached out, putting his hand on his eldest brother's shoulder. "But don't worry, he'll be alright."

Sora frowned. It had all started sometime last night, when he answered the phone and heard Terra on the other line. Now that wasn't too strange, considering the brunette had their phone number and Ven was his best friend - what was odd was that he was already with Ven, so why was he calling?

Terra had sounded... odd too. Sort of like he was sick or something. All he had asked for was to speak with his mom - an even odder request.

The next thing he knew Bryna was out the door and going to fetch Ven. Once the blonde had gotten there he said not a word, gave not a smile or even any indication of what was wrong, he just headed for his room and shut the door... and didn't come out until morning. Now a morning later and Ven's behavior hadn't improved at all... and Sora was worried sick for his little brother. Roxas seemed to know what was going on, but gave not an inch of information. He knew it wasn't any business and even though they WERE triplets they didn't have to share EVERYTHING together...

It still was weird, being left out. He wanted to help, but Ven wasn't letting him in and it was scary...


Terra stared across the frosted grass silently, his eyes dim. Black circles were under his eyes - he had not slept. Guilt had settled into his gut...
"Terra... yo Terra!"
How could he of let this happen?

"Braig, get my mom on the phone." Terra said softly, waving to Bryna as she pulled away from the curb with Ven. He had declined many times to be driven home.
"What-what's going on?"
"Just do it." He snapped, inciting the other into action. He walked down the sidewalk, slipping into an alleyway were he was completely shrouded by shadows. He heard the crackling of the phone as it was moved around and presumably switched hands. then his mother's sweet voice echoed in his ear.
"Terra! Oh darling I was just about to call you and-"
"Mom..." Terra choked, her voice too sweet and perfect. Would she stop loving him too if he told her what happened?
"Terra....? Honey what's wrong?"
"M-Mom I...I-I need you to c-come pick me up." He said, feeling tears welling in his eyes again and he didn't bother trying to fight them.
"Honey please tell me what happened!"
"I messed up real bad mom. Real bad."

"TERRA!"
The brunette jerked his head up, looking towards Aqua with dull eyes. "Yeah?"
"Man... whats up with you?"
"Nothing..."

[Rikugurl]

The blonde hurried off inside instead of up the familiar hill where Aqua and Terra usually waited for him.
Not today... because the blonde would never arrive.
Instead, he walked down the empty halls, going to the band room where only one or two people were practicing early. All he did was put his violin in the case... and headed off to home room.

His eyes were puffy from crying himself to sleep, the ring in his hand all night.
His skin was pale and his eyes held no life to them.
He had woken up early, ate in silence and was quiet the whole bus trip to school.

Roxas was keeping his promise at least.
At least... he could keep an oath.
He... didn't want Sora to know.... well....no one to know actually...

He felt empty, emotionless... dead inside.
Roxas's and Zack's words tore him up inside, so badly that it was too intense for a bleeding.

The bells rang...and he stood like a zombie, going from one class to another.

He only had one more final... and well... he didn't even pick up his pencil.
After a hour, the buzzer rang and the teacher stood, collecting all their test. She stopped at Ven and blinked.
"Ventus... you.... didn't even write your name on the test... Is everything ok?"
Ven just stared out blankly before grabbing his backpack and headed off to lunch.


By this time... the pain had become so numbing that.... that nothing seemed to help. He was just... felt like....it was time to end it.

He slowly walked into the bathroom by the cafeteria, around the wall and into the main lobby. There he walked to the farthest stall, the one where he and Terra had had sex that day. The cold door closed and the blonde looked down at the toilet. So... empty.


Axel shook his butt at his friend as he tossed the Frisbee. "Try and catch THAT ONE!" He laughed, seeing Demyx go running.
He was feeling much better today. That Hayner kid knew how to fucking kick!

Speaking of which...
Green eyes looked back, seeing the blonde playing the normal game of kickball once more. Hopefully he wouldn't get such a nasty surprise again.


"What do you mean... 'lifeless'?" The silverette frowned as he looked at his concerned best friend.
"Oh, maybe him and Terra got into another fight today...?" Kairi butted in, frowning as well.

[Reno]

"Ah Axel you meanie!!" Demyx cried as he turned and ran after the Frisbee. "Come here little flying Diii-AHH!" The blonde cried as he crashed into some random girl playing Badminton.

Except it wasn't a random girl it was... "Hehehe hey Larxene!" The blonde squeaked, jumping off of her as if he had been shocked. He was dead. Oh so dead....


Roxas sighed, unaware that he was being watched. He just continued to play the game, but rather unenthusiastically. Ventus wasn't just worrying Sora, he was worrying him too...

"Come on Rox - pick it up!" Hayner complained.

The blonde shook his head as he kicked the ball towards Olette lightly. "I'm not really feeling up to it today..." He glanced back across the gym, but not towards Axel. No he was looking somewhere off to the right... where Terra was.

The teen was a mess.


"Come on Terra!" Aqua goaded as the other seniors played dodgeball before them. "Get up and play! It's our last chance to nails ome of these idiots until next semester!"

The brunette shook his head, sitting down on the gym floor, not caring if they didn;t count him for today. "You go ahead..."

"Terra..." Aqua lent down. "Come on, tell me what's wrong!" He'd been like this all day. Inattentive and... and sad. "Does it... have to do with Ven?"

The brunette didn't answer he just continued to watch blankly as the seniors mauled each other down.


Sora frowned, spearing the top of his hamburger bun with his spork, completely uninterested in the meal he had gotten. his worry for Ven and his cold was making his stomach take a vacation.
"I mean" He said almost snappishly, though it was just because he was worried. His friends would tell him he was over-reacting. but somewhere deep in his heart... this fear was growing. "That he was SO unhappy last night that he just... looked like he just didn't want anything to do with life okay? What else does the term mean? And no it's not a fight with Terra damn it, they fight all the time and he's never... never acted like this before!"
Sora scoffed disgusted pushed his tray aside and throwing his spork on the table listening to it clatter.

[Rikugurl]

"I got it!" A girl cried as she ran to get the small flying ball and "AAAAAAAAAUGH!" Was thrown onto the ground as some lanky FREAK smashed into her. She fell on her boy, her boob impaled by a bony elbow. "GET OFF MEEEEEEEEE!" She growled as the boy got off... and low and behold, idiot Demyx.

She growled more as she got up, and was about to say something when... the birdie hit her in the head.
She blinked a blank stare before clenching her teeth... and grabbing Demyx's shirt violently. "WHAT'S THE BIG IDEA!?"


Axel continued to watch Roxas. He didn't seem well. He wondered if it was maybe because he was absent yesterday or... well... why would he look THAT bad just because he got a bump on the head.
Well... a major bump on the head.... but... he looked, seeing Roxas's gaze on Terra.
"Hmmm..." He was about to start making ties between the two when he heard bitchy-miss-bitcher-son.

Green eyes looked back again, seeing Demyx in the claws of the insect feeler blonde witch. Oh boy...
He shook his head before slowly walking over. Demyx owed him. "Hey, let him go alright? He was looking at the Frisbee, not your ugly face."
"WHAT!?"


Kairi's eyes widened as she heard Sora. Was he... snapping at her!?
She frowned as she took her tray. "Jeez Sora, what crawled up your butt?" She looked down at Riku before turning. "I'm going to go sit with Namine."

Riku blinked as he looked up at her, then rolled his eyes before looking back at Sora. "Don't mind her..."
He leaned in closer, frowning a bit. He hardly ever saw Sora like this. "What do you think happened?"
