Roleplay The College Chronicles (1x1 with aoi hoshi)

[aoi hoshi 3]

Sora placed a hand Roxas's shoulder and jerked his head back. "C'mon, let's go find the girls. I'm sure Naminé is worried about you." He didn't bother answering Snow. Wasn't anything else to say to creep anyway. 

 

Riku folded his arms across his chest but relented with an irritated sigh. He was really tempted to throw a few punches himself but decided his opponents weren't worth the time. As they walked away, Riku called back out to their host, "Next time you throw a party, figure out how to control your guests better. Especially around girls."

 

"That's good," Naminé mumbled, "but I should probably still find him. He can be a little reckless sometimes." Seeing Kairi again, a relieved smile painted itself on her lips. "Kairi. I'm glad you're here." She took the flannel with a small thank you. "I hope you won't get too cold though."

[Forever Love 82]

Roxas nodded slightly with a look over to Sora. “Okay,” he agreed. Maybe seeing Namine would calm him down a little. He was still a bit fired up.

Kairi shook her head. “Don’t worry about it. It’s hot in here anyway,” she said. She would be fine for now. Thankfully the night wasn’t too chilly yet. She would rather be cold than let Namine walk around with that spiked shirt on.

Naminé put the flannel on and buttoned it near the top. "Thank you," she said again but included Lightning this time as well. Truly, the blonde girl was grateful to have such kind friends supporting her.

 

Being the tallest out of the group of boys, Riku noticed the three girls first. He offered a small wave as a greeting as he slid through another throng of people. "You okay, Naminé?" he asked looking to the blonde girl. His aquamarine orbs still held flecks of concern.

 

"I'm okay now," Naminé answered, tugging the flannel sleeves slightly, "You were right about college boys though."

[Forever Love 82]

“Dogs looking for a scrap of meat. In your case, fresh meat,” Lightning added, crossing her arms over her chest. She didn’t like this atmosphere. It was too loud, too obnoxious. She preferred peace and quiet most of the time.

Roxas saw that Namine was wearing Kairi’s flannel now, and she seemed better. It felt good to hear it too. He wasn’t sure what to say to her since Riku already asked how she was. He did agree with the pink-haired girl though—Namine and Kairi were new on campus, which meant attention.

A disgusted expression crossed Sora's face at the insinuation. Were guys really that gross? He had never treated girls like that. "You'll have to be especially careful then," Sora said lowly. I'll have to keep a good watch out for them too. 

 

Naminé wrinkled her nose at the notion, hugging herself protectively. She really would need to learn some better self defense tactics. When her eyes caught Roxas's, however, she smiled and approached him with a cute tilt of the head. "Hello, Roxas." 

[Forever Love 82]

Roxas lifted a hand to Namine’s shoulder. “Are you alright? Do you want to go?” His voice was laced with concern, and while Sora or Riku may tease him for it later, he didn’t really care. He wanted to make sure Namine was alright. She actually seemed like she was doing better than he was. He could go or stay, but they would all definitely be showing they were better than what just happened if they stayed anyway. There were still a few things they could do around here. But he would go if she wanted to. He understood if she was humiliated.

Did she want to go? Naminé hesitated for a moment before shaking her head. “It’s up to you guys. I have Kairi’s shirt to wear so I’m fine. Thank you though.” Near the back wall, a plate of freshly cooked hamburgers and hotdogs could be seen. A faint wave of steam could be seen floating into the air. “Actually, I could use a bite to eat now. Anyone else hungry?”

[Forever Love 82]

Kairi smiled sheepishly. "It might me best that we eat, since we drank and all," she said, shrugging slightly. The buzz had worn off a bit since the squabble, but it would still be good to eat something. Plus, it was a free meal. Kairi knew the guys wouldn't pass that up.

 

Lightning looked between the group, though her eyes lingered on the guy she had been talking to earlier. Riku. While his friends were a bit easy to entertain, he seemed more laid back. Interesting bunch, she thought to herself.  

[aoi hoshi 3]

"I could go for a burger or two," Sora said, patting his stomach with a laugh. His stomach gurgled impatiently in response. The sound also seemed to relieve the group of any lingering tension. 

 

Hesitantly, Riku beckoned to Lightning. He wasn't entirely sure what to expect, but she seemed nice enough. She looked after Naminé too. "You should come too, Lightning. We can all find somewhere to sit and eat our food."

 

"Yeah, it'd be fun to have you with," Naminé agreed with a nod. The other girl seemed a little lonely somehow. Even though her heart wasn't connected to Sora's, Naminé got that sense from her. 

[Forever Love 82]

Lightning blinked in surprise. “Oh, um...I don’t want to intrude,” she said, unsure how to accept. Someone was actually inviting her to something? Other than her sister? Yeah, definitely an interesting bunch, she added to her thought moments ago. They barely knew her and yet wanted her to come along?

“Nah, you’re fine!” Sora assured and laced his hands behind his head, “The more the merrier anyway.” He noticed his best friend’s lingering eyes on the pink haired girl and smiled to himself. The idea of Riku having any kind of crush made him giddy. Though Sora doubted Riku himself understood his own feelings at this point.

[Forever Love 82]

“...Okay,” Lightning agreed after another second’s hesitation. She didn’t usually hang out with groups of people, or anyone really. She guessed if she decided against it later, she could always leave.

Kairi smiled. “Great! Shall we?” She gestured toward the food, where a line was forming. At least some drunks were orderly.

[aoi hoshi 3]

"Ladies first," Riku said, ushering the trio forward. The line wasn't too long, so it only took a couple of minutes for everyone to dish themselves a plate of goods. Riku put a burger on his own plate followed by a handful of chips, some sliced fruit, and what he hoped were just plain chocolate brownies. 

 

"I think we can sit at the kitchen table," Naminé suggested, using the hand that wasn't holding a plate full of food to point to the near empty dining table. 

[Forever Love 82]

Kairi took a seat at the table, which was rather large--to accomodate all of the frat brothers, she was sure. A few people were drinking at the other end of the table. Kairi couldn't help but notice they were scantilly-clad girls. She tried not to let that bother her, though it was hard. She may have had confidence in herself, but she was only human; of course she would compare herself to others sometimes.

[aoi hoshi 3]

Naminé noticed a troubled expression on her best friend's face and frowned. What was she worried about? The answer to this question, however, was quickly answered by the loud and not so subtle commentary from the barely clothed group of girls at the end of the table.

 

"What hot guys," one of them purred, batting her eyes up at Riku.

 

"Mmmhmm," another agreed with roving eyes that Naminé noticed lingered too long on Roxas, "I could just eat them up."

 

"You don't think they have girlfriends, do you?" a third one asked in a drunken slur. 

 

Naminé found herself clenching her fists and creating tiny half moons in her palms. There wasn't anything to worry about. The boys weren't stupid. 

[Forever Love 82]

Roxas froze at the words, looking to Sora and Riku briefly. He could feel the weight of the girls' stares, and he was sure they could as well. They're talking about us? he thought in wonder. He looked over and immediately met one girl's eyes. He shyly looked away and scratched his cheek. Oh boy...

 

Lightning rolled her eyes and bit into a piece of fruit. Desperate much? The girls were drunk, dressed terribly (or not really dressed at all), and trying too hard. It was embarrassing to the female population. 

[aoi hoshi 3]

Sora chuckled nervously and waved awkwardly before sitting down beside Kairi. He could read her discomfort clearly, but what should he do? Taking a bite of his burger, Sora tried to avoid eye contact. "S-So, what do you guys want to do after we eat?"

 

"You look new," one the drunk girls blurted, "Are you?"

 

"Yeah, we are," Riku answered slowly. These girls reminded him of the ones he had the misfortune of running into at Destiny University. He would need to proceed with caution. 

[Forever Love 82]

"Oh good! Then we can show you around!" another drunk girl said from the other end of the large table. 

 

"Yeah! We know how to have a great time!" another hollered.

 

Kairi fought the urge to roll her eyes or groan. Instead, she looked from the girls to the guys. Well? Were they going to feed into this? She didn't control them, after all, and they could handle themselves. They could do what they wanted. But...Kairi couldn't deny the spark of jealousy that struck just then.

[aoi hoshi 3]

Sora held up his hands defensively but tried keeping a smile intact so the conversation would hopefully remain civil. "Heh, heh, we're all good. Uh, my friends and I all took a tour around campus earlier, right guys?"

[Forever Love 82]

"Oh, c'mon! Those are so boring! We know all the secret parts of campus! And frat houses...." She shared a look with the girls and they giggled.

 

Roxas wasn't an idiot. These girls were insinuating some...specific endeavors. "Uh..." he began, but all of a sudden one girl appeared behind his chair and wrapped an arm around him from behind, her hand sitting on his chest. Oh no.

 

"Relax," she cooed. "We don't bite." She then leaned closer to the blond boy's ear, his spikes tickling her cheek. "...Unless you want us too."

 

Kairi blanched. Was this really happening?! These girls were insane! 

[aoi hoshi 3]

"Yeah, we could give you a personal tour," another added and climbed on top of the table so that she could crouch in front of Sora with a predatory smile on her red lips. She flicked one of his spikes with an exaggerated wink while the brunet sat paralyzed. He was under attack but couldn't hit her. Or summon the keyblade.

 

Abruptly, Naminé shot up from her seat. Her frame was shaking. Had she ever been this angry before? She didn't think so. Her words were hard and laced with growing anger. "Hands off!" She wrenched the hand that was on Roxas's chest away.

 

The girl flipped her hair and glared at her dramatically. "Ow, what the hell is your problem?"

Roxas jumped slightly from Namine's sudden action. "N-Namine," he tried, not sure what to say. But that was when Kairi spoke up.

 

"Our problem is you invading our friends' personal space. Why don't you back off?" Kairi snapped, placing a hand on Sora's arm as she glared at the girl who was all over him. "If they wanted your attention, you wouldn't have had to throw yourselves at them."

 

Lightning glanced around the table at the scene, a bit surprised but pleased. These girls didn't take crap, and she admired that. They were pretty small, but they had fire. She looked at the girl who leaned her arm against Riku's shoulder, standing next to him. "Any rebuttals?" she smirked. Riku wasn't exactly responding either.

[aoi hoshi 3]

All three girls exchanged glances with one another, and the leader, a girl with dark hair tied into a high pony tail that was half unraveled, curled her lip at Lightning. The stench of alcohol wafting off of her nearly made Riku, who was beside her, choke. "Maybe your friends don't know what they want? You all seem to be desperately hanging off of them. What are you? Their groupies?"

 

Riku pushed her arm off and stood up. "Maybe we're just not interested," he snarled, "so back off."

[Forever Love 82]

Roxas's eyebrows furrowed as he nodded to Riku's words. "What he said. I'm sure there are enough desperate guys around here that would be glad to take you up on your offer. So see ya." He didn't want any part in this. Did they honestly think this was attractive?

 

Lightning bit back a laugh, lowering her eyes to the table as she waited. The table was silent for a moment, apart from the music blasting from the next room. These girls were classless. 

 

"Ugh, whatever. This is lame. Can we go?" one girl asked, looking to the leader. There were plenty of other guys who would hang out with them...right?

[aoi hoshi 3]

The dark haired girl rolled her eyes but relented with a snotty wave. "Yeah, c'mob girls. There are way hotter guys at this party anyway." Like Snow. Or Gadot. They didn't need to deal with these freshmen anyway. As they walked away, the same drunk who had spilt a drink on Naminé ran by in a toga made of sheets that was too long. The three girls simultaneously fell into a puddle of what was possibly beer.

 

Naminé couldn't help herself and burst out laughing, the tension in her body melting. "Serves them right."

 

Sora placed a hand over his heart and sighed in relief. "No kidding." He was glad the girls were here with them.
