KH: High Times At Twilight High

"Hmm..." Rei was almost aprehensive about saying that it was obvious she liked him a little, but decided against it. Se didn't want to lie to Axel, but she was starting to like him too...

"I'm not sure, she's either obsessed or paranoid.

Rei saw the girl she suspected to be Paine, casually talking to Axel about leaving town. She smiled back at her almost halfheartedly, but felt somewhat remorseful as she figured that Paine thought Axel may have been cheating on her.

Though she shouldn't have been, Rei felt happy. Maybe he'll ask me now...

 

Axle simply nodded to her response, though really believing those fatcs, and was about to reply, when Paine came up to him, telling him the news. He just gazed at her when she walking, his eyes widening a little. Trying hard not to sound too cheerful, he gave her a understanding smile, and shook her hand, in a sort of peace offering. She might have been a good friend if he got to know her better, perhaps. "Don't worry. Maybe if we actually talked it would've been fine. You're cool yourself, honestly." He chuckled at her comment from before. "She's not my date, but I guess I have no choice now, right?"

 

"Right...you two have a good time"Paine smiled at Axel one last time and left the school

 

No choice? Rei wondered. Was he just saying that to make Paine feel beter, was he joking, or did he really feel that way? It confused her, but she tried her best to not show it. As Paine left, she faced Axel and grinned widely. "So, what now, buddy?" she asked. Maybe she left the wrong impression of saying 'buddy'...

 

"Bye..." Axel murmured with a weak wave, watching her disappear from his view. It was hard for him not to start dancing and screaming in joy, but he held himself. Axel had much more control than that, but he couldn't help but smile at Rei wildly, hearing her question. "I don't know, buddy. I'm in a good mood right now though."

Keeping on walking, he looked at her from the corner of his eye, wondering if he really should. There were both dateless after all, and she made amazing company. He spoke, swirling in front of her, stopping her steps. He gave her sexy smirk, though it was more playful, yet it didn't stop the effect. "Since I just got out of a partner, could the lovely Miss Rei accompany me to the dance tomorrow?"

Axel wiggled his eyebrowss suggestively, before his demeanor suddenly turned serious, and patiently waited for her answer quietly.

 

Rei stopped abruptly in her tracks, attracted to his arousing and charismatic manner. She forced herself to not blush and quickly thought of a stunning and witty response. "Considering the Aesthetic Axel is asking, I am more than happy to oblige."

Rei slipper her arm through his, as though they were intertwined. She felt a constant zest as they began to walk together.

It took all of Rei's energy to not burst of screaming like a crazed fangirl.

 

Cloud sighed and lookedup at the sunset,he walked back inside and began walking to Tifa's room

 

Axel was surprised at Rei's sudden contentment, even more when she interlocked their arms together, and he eyed her carefully. Dismissing the notion, he decided to pretend nothing was wrong, and he quirked a brow at her. "It seems the 'Aesthetic Axel' is a good thing. Now you have yourself the hottest and sexiest date."

He smiled at her arrogantly and cheekily, before looking forward, quite glad that he was going with someone more enjoyable, or someone he had much more in common with. Paine was fine, but he could already picture both of them sitting on the chairs, bored out of their mind, making sure they were several feet apart. It was then he got reminded that he was about to say something back to Rei about the Larxene discussion before Paine interrupted. "Call yourself lucky you got me. Anyway...I was about to reply back about the former conversation. Since you're a girl and all, do you think Larxene might be in a state of denial? I asked her why, but last time, she ran away, blushing, let me tell you. I tried to stop her, but she was panicking, so I let her go. That's why when I saw her on the stairs I wanted to speak to her. I asked her again, but this time she said she didn't know, and that she wants to talk to me later." He stopped there, looking over at her, apologetically. "Sorry to throw this on you. I don't know, but this thing has been bothering the hell out of me."

 

"Hmm... sounds to me like you have many admirers, so I guess I am considered lucky. She produced a polished smile, showing her teeth. "She's either intimidated or nervous around you."

She noticed that he was a little fazed by her immediate forwardness, but chuckled to herself. She realized that she and Axel shared many qualities, and he was easy to get along with.

 

Cloud stop's at Tifa's door and take's a deep breath,wondering if breaking up with her was the right thing to do,he just wasnt ready for this kind of commitment,plus he had always been a loner

 

Axel shrugged, giving out a weak smile, though Rei apparently didn't get how much the situation got in his nerves. He didn't even know how himself, or why, or if this was going to turn out with Larxene and him going back to their daily lives. Whenever there was something he didn't know, it kept nagging at him if he didn't get a concrete answer. Then again, he wasn't positivie if Larxene could give it either.

Brushing of his thoughts, he looked around as they were almost reaching the building where the rooms were housed, and in a fast blink he could swear he saw Cloud passing by. Maybe he did, for whatever reason, though it had to do with Tifa, maybe?

"Yeah, well, even if it could be possible that she might like me a little, if at all, we're on two polar opposite sides, she's a Prep. And she has Marluxia as a added bonus. Would never work..." he sighed, wondering why he sounded so gloomy on it. Not that he cared, they both had their own thing, he just wanted to figure it out, and be at peace. That was all. With that in mind, Axel eyed Rei with a devious smile on his face. "I hope you impress me with what you wear to the dance. Sexy, but formal and elegant."

He was joshing, but it was to tease her a little bit, and to test something about her himself.

Tifa snapped her head up at hearing the knock, and placing the laptop gently on the bed, walked over to the door. She hesitated, not knowing whther it was who she thought it was behind the door, but opened it slightly anyway, seeing Cloud there. She sighed. "Oh...hi, Cloud."

 

"Tifa...we need to talk,can I come in?''Cloud aske,then gulped silently,was he really going to break up with her?

 

"Um, sure," Tifa allowed, a bit nervous and anxious now, looking at Cloud worriedly. It was as they say, nothing good comes out of "we need to talk". She could already feel her heart sinking into dread and fear, but remained nonchalant as she opened the door wide to let him inside. Cloud wouldn't, would he? Over simple things? All relationships had problems, but they had always worked themselves out. Finding it rough and hard to speak, she hoarsely replied, "Come in."

 

Cloud sheepishly walked inside and sat on her bed,he looked up at Tifa with a depressed look"Listen...Tifa"Cloud said,his voice getting dry"I dont think im meant to fall in love...im just not the type...and I dont think im the right man for you...I love you..and I do want to see you happy.."Cloud looked down to the ground"Even if your with someone else...''

 

Reixa looked at Axel, knowing that he wanted a straight answer. Se sighed and finally said "Yes, I think she likes you, but may be in denial for the very reason you just stated: the whole Prep vs. Skater thing.". When he spoke again, she grinned quizzically.

"Oh, don't worry, you'll be pleased at least," she said jestingly.

That's right, I need to go shopping...

 

Tifa felt her whole heart shatter at his words, tears building up in her eyes, her hands shaking as she backed away, not believing her ears. The back of her knees hit the bed, making her sit on the mattress, that she couldn't even feel it. A shadow of anguished washed over, overtaking her senses and emotions. All she was aware of was hurt. Deep, painful hurt, and her whole vision of him was crashed.

This is not happening...

Not being able to hold back the tears, she sobbed, feeling the drops glide on her cheeks, looking down at the floor. Trembling, she encricled her arms around herself, shaking her head, wondering. Why?

"...why? W-what did I do?" she cried, speaking her thoughts outloud unintentionally, fighting hard to stop her water works.

"Not that it matters," Axel sighed, making his head throw away Larxene and her words, as they reached the dorm hallways, but they were still walking down, wherever. He was right, though, it would never work. Deciphering Rei's coment that went through his mind, he glanced at her, almost seductively, a confident smile placed as he husked, "As long as its pleasing, though I feel I won't be disappointed. Besides, I have to show you off as only the most sexiest and hottest guy in the room should, as my equal."

He was perfectly aware that he was teasing her a little too much, but it wouldn't hurt as long as she knew. It wasn't like he was leading her on, right? Rei was the type that was just...meant to tease. But maybe he should stop.

OOC: Poor Tifa :/ *gets out chainsaw to slice Cloud with* >:3

 

Rei had been oblivious to his teasing until he said that in his normal, sarcastic way. She felt sort of dumb for falling for it, but kept going with the joke. This time, when she spoke, her tone changed from lust to fondness. "Oh, really? How will I ever pull it off?" Rei said, laughing to herself.

 

"Tifa it isnt you,it's me..im just not the type to have a relationship!''Cloud said,trying his best to calm her down"There are other men you could fall inlove with...like Reno..or Rude...or...Barret!?''Cloud said awkwardly,wondering why he said any of them"Look Tifa...im such a moody guy,im not exciting or cheerful...it isnt your fault...it's mine..''Cloud said sadly


OOC:lol

 

OOC: OMG. I cannot believe you used the "Is not you, is me" crappy line xD. That's it *turns on chainsaw* Die! >=D

"But I love YOU!" Tifa cried, suddenly overcomed with anger and bitterness, amissed all the pain she was feeling right now, causing her to run her emotions to clash together. Her heart has been ripped out and stepped on, and all he could do is spill bullsh*t? She kept sobbing as more tears slipped down, not stopping. "I don't care how you act! Don't you think I would have left? I didn't! I don't care for Reno, or all those guys, I care for you! I take you as you are! Why..."

She found herseld at loss of sound there, not able to continue.

"Oh, you'll pull it off alright, " Axel whispered mildly, sending her a a sly look as he eyed her intently, a silky smirk on his face. "Despite the bathing suit, it didn't do much to hide your body, hmm?"

His tone had lessened to a more normal approach, but the hint didn't couldn't pass by Rei, he knew that much. Not that he was checking her out, really, but it was there for him to look at. It was then he almost went off to ponder over how someone else would look in a bikini, though he discarded it just as quickly. What the hell? He must be out of his mind.

His ears strained, however, when he heard some screaming coming from somewhere. It was a female...but why would...

 

Rei began to laugh, but it faltered as she heard screaming down the hallway. For a moment, there was silence. "Did you hear that?" Rei asked. She listened as hard as she could and decifered the voice as... a girl's.
