Absolute Boyfriend

"I thought maybe I had a chance this time..."

C h a p t e r 1;;

"Crap! I'm late again!"

Sixteen-year-old Nina scurried out of her bedroom, buttoning up the last two buttons to her school uniform as she ran into the living room. She extended a hand out to grab her backpack, but a soda can that she had been pretty sure that she'd thrown out was in the way. She found herself stepping on it and she was sent crashing into the back glass window, groaning as she hit the glass. "Augh...oh no! I forgot to bring in the laundry!"

Frantically, she slid open the door and began grabbing at the laundry she had hung up outside, throwing them inside her messy apartment in a hurry. Ugh! Some of the clothes weren't dry yet!

If only I could just have a normal morning for once, she thought as she made her way back inside to get her bag. And today's my big day! How could I be late for this!?

She gave herself a quick once-over in the mirror, smoothing down her layered brown hair that went just slightly past her shoulders. She gave herself one quick smile, making sure it didn't look dorky, and then ran off out the door.

Here goes nothing!

"Mornin', Roxas," Xion called sleepily to her older brother as she shuffled into the kitchen. She slumped into her seat at the table and licked her lips at the delicious food her brother had set out for her; he sure was a good cook!

Roxas glanced inside from the balcony, pushing aside his sister's school uniform from the rest of the laundry. "Yeah. Good morning." He brushed aside blonde hair that kept sweeping in front of his face with the wind, growling softly. Stupid hair...

Fwap!

Taken aback a little, Roxas blinked, pulling the object that had just fallen on his head off of him. A pink bra was now in his hands, and he stared at it for a good few seconds before his little sister spoke up, just as he knew she would.

"Nina's late again?" she asked, referring to their next door neighbor and Roxas's childhood friend. "She's really a mess without her parents. Maybe you should go take care of her. I'm sure she'd like your company."

The blonde boy growled again, louder this time, and shoved Xion's school uniform into her lap as he walked inside. "Shut up."

Xion grinned, picking up a piece of bacon. "What? I didn't say anything."

Roxas sighed and rustled Xion's short black hair before grabbing his bag and making his way out the door. "Have a good day at school, Xion."

"You, too, Rox," he heard her call back as he closed the apartment door behind him.

x--x

"Late, late!" Nina mumbled to herself as she ran down the stairs of the building, making her way to the bus stop. She hoped she wasn't too late...

Bam! She ran straight into someone just as she got outside; looking up she saw it was her neighbor, Roxas, holding something up in front of her face. Her...bra!?

"Ah!," she squeaked, snatching the lingere away from her childhood friend. "You pervert! What the hell were you doing with those!?"

"Relax, flatsy. Yours wouldn't exactly be the first I'd grab," Roxas defended calmly, turning away from her and walking to the nearby bus stop.

"Flatsy!?" she yelled after him. "What the hell is that supp-"

She stopped in the middle of her sentence, seeing him by the bus stop. There he was, Tidus, her long time crush. And today, she decided to tell him how she felt about him. Today, she would have the courage.

Alright, Nina told herself as she marched up to him. You can do this. Just go right up to him and tell him how you feel.

"Hey, Tidus!" she called as she got close to him.

He turned around, his blue eyes scanning the area until he found the source of the noise. "Oh, hey, Nina," he greeted, playing with some of his blond hair. She blushed at the way it kept falling in front of his face. "I got your text. You said you wanted to talk to me, right?"

Nina nodded, feeling the butterflies suddenly starting up inside of her. Don't back down now!

"Tidus...I like you! Will you go out with me?" she asked, before the let the confidence slip away.

"Sorry!" he shot back. "I'm already interested in someone else!"

Nina blinked, not knowing what to make of this. She didn't expect him to answer so quickly.

"Shot down cold," she heard someone nearby mumble under their breath.

"Um," Tidus interjected her thoughts, "Why are you holding a bra?"

Oh crap. Nina stared down at the pink bra she still had in her hands, wishing she had put it away when she had the chance. "Er..."

"Uh, well, there's my bus! See you around, Nina."

As the bus pulled away, she stood there in shock, wondering if she should cry or just jump in front of the next bus that came along. She rushed just for that? There had to be some kind of mistake.

"Well, put it away!" Roxas told her as he walked by to get on the next bus that had pulled up; she had forgotten he was even there, watching the entire time.

x--x

"It was terrible!" Nina whined, her head on the cold, hard school desk later that morning. She stared at the wood patterns sadly, and a little embarassed. "I've gotten rejected so many times, but this one was just...ugh! He could have at least pretended to think about it or something." She groaned into the wood beneath her, as if it would respond. "I wish I was pretty like you, Kairi."

She turned to stare up at her best friend, Kairi, who was sitting next to her, looking concerned for her friend. Kairi sure was pretty. Her dark blue eyes sparkled with worry, and she adjusted her shiny, straight red hair so it was behind her ear. Smoothing out her school uniform, she sat up straight and smiled a tiny smile. "Oh, Nina. I'm not that great. You look just like that girl from YouTube you love so much...what was her name...?"

Nina sat up, a little hope flowing into her. "Really? I do?"

Kairi nodded, forgetting her quest for a form of personal identification for the compliment. "Sure, from a right three-quarter profile!"

Nina's face lit up, but dropped as Roxas passed by, saying quietly, "That's an insult to such a funny girl, you know."

"Shut up, Roxas!"

"Whatever you say, flatsy."

"AUGH! Why must you live next door to me and be in the same class!?"

Kairi smiled as she watched the two go at it. This would be a long, very usual day...

x--x

"You know," Kairi pointed out after school, looking thoughtful. "Why don't you go out with him?"

"Who?" Nina asked, a little surprised and a bit wary about what the answer would be."

"Roxas. You two seem pretty....comfortable."

The brunette gagged. "You're kidding, right? Comfortable isn't the word at all! More like...suffocation!"

The redhead giggled as she reached her bus stop. "Just a thought," she said with a smile. "Well, I gotta go catch my bus. I'll keep an eye out for you in terms of guys, okay?"

Nina smiled tiredly and nodded. "Sure. Thanks, Kairi. See you tomorrow." With that, she turned and walked off through the park; she needed a quiet route home today.

But they were everywhere, all these couples, so lovey-dovey with each other. Arms around each other, happy to have found someone who can put a smile on their face. Happy to have someone to call theirs.

And there was Nina.

Am I ever going to get a boyfriend!? she thought to herself, frustrated. Every guy I've asked out has turned me down. Am I going to grow up alone and withered in my apartment? Am I never ever going to have sex!?

"AUGH!" she let out, pulling at her hair in annoyance and earning one or two stares from those passing by; she didn't care.

It was strange noise that filled her ears that got her attention. Brrrrring-a-ding-ding-gling-rrrrrrringgggg.

"What the heck is that?" she said aloud, taking a few steps forward towards the source of the noise. Frrrrooom!There she saw it, a cell phone laying in the dirt, ringing away. "A cell phone? What a freaky ringtone!"

She picked it up anyway, staring at it for a second and wondering if she should answer it or not. The person who lost it must be missing it; maybe they were calling now. She answered it, looking around as she did to see if it might belong to anybody around the area. "Hello?"

"Oh, you found it!" a male voice on the other end of the phone said. "Thank goodness! I'm not sure what I'd do if I'd had lost it."

It's a guy, Nina noted to herself. Ah, this could be something out of a romantic movie, the type where she gives his phone back and they fall in love...

"Listen, can you meet me? I'd like to have my phone back."

"Sure," Nina said, half-listening as he told her the name of the cafè they'd meet in. "See you there in a little while." With that, she hung up and rushed off to her romantic-movie fate.

x--x

The cafè was considerably full as she stepped inside. Her eyes scanned for someone sitting alone, looking like they were waiting for someone. Her eye caught on someone waving her over to their table. "Hey! Over here!"

Ack!...er, what's with the freaky cosplay-looking dude? she thought to herself as she approached a man sitting down at an empty table. He looked like his hair was on fire, as red spikes flew back behind him in every which way. Tiny green marks were under his equally emerald green eyes...tattoos? He was wearing a dark cloak, and he sat with a devilish grin.

Oh great, Nina thought as her movie-fantasy came crashing down to the ground. I brought a cell phone back to a cosplaying pedophile!

"Thank you so much!" the man said as he took back the cell phone Nina handed to him cautiously.

"Er, no problem!" she returned with a smile, turning away and heading towards the door. "See ya!"

"Hey, hey! What's the rush?" the mysterious man called after her. "I'd like to reward you for giving back something so important to me! I couldn't do business without it, after all."

Nina stopped and glanced over her shoulder. "Business? Are you some cosplaying salesman or something?"

"Cosplay? Oh goodness, no. But I am a salesman." He smiled again. "Anything you want?" He held up a flyer. "Look, this product can increase your bust size!"

The word flatsy flashed through her mind as she listened to him offer more and more products of every kind. She pivoted, annoyed, back to the door. "Sorry, no!"

"C'mon!" he pleaded. "There must be something you want!"

"Alright!" Nina exclaimed, stopping in her tracks. "I want a boyfriend! That's all I want right now."

....oh crap. Did she really just say that out loud? Now the freak must think she's a freak!

But he only grinned. "Well, why didn't you say so?" And when she thought that that grin meant he might try something funny with her, she was wrong again- er, to an extent. He handed her a small card and opened the door to the cafè. "Just visit that website and you'll get what you want." With that, he opened the door and stepped out.

Nina blinked, staring after him. "Who the hell was that guy?" she asked herself aloud. She glanced at the card and read the name off of it. "Axel, huh?"

Her eyes scanned over the rest of the card. "Heavenly Oblivion?" After staring at it for another minute, she opened the door and resumed her walk home. "Whatever..."

x--x

Ding dong!

Nina finished pulling her hair into two ponytails and hurried our of her room to answer the door. She had changed into another outfit after school, a jean skirt and a bright yellow shirt; so much more comfortable.

Pulling the door open, she saw that it was Roxas. "What do you want?" she demanded.

He let himself inside and held up a bag. "I brought you some dinner."

"I can get my own food, you know."

"If your cooking is as any good as your housekeeping, you're in trouble." He shook his head and began to pick up the soda can she had tripped on that morning. "This place is a mess! This is exactly why you can't get a guy."

"Hey!" Nina yelled, yanking on his arm. "You can't just barge in here and start messing with my apartment!"

"Your parents told me to take care of you," the blonde defended, picking up a bag of chips that was nearby. "So that's what I'm doing."

"I'm not a baby!" she said, crossing her arms. "I can do this myself."

"Yeah, I'd love to see you try."

"Fine! Then I will!" she uncrossed her arms and pushed him out into the hallway. He sighed. "Fine, Nina. Goodnight."

"Hmph." She closed the door and sat down to eat her dinner.

"What a jerk!" she said aloud in between bites of noodles. "I can get a guy, and I can take care of myself...this food's kind of good."

She took a sip of her drink, and as she put it down, she saw the tiny card Axel had given her out of the corner of her eye. "Oh, right. Heavenly Oblivion." She frowned. "Should I check it out?"

With a shrug, she sat down at her father's computer with her juice box and the tiny plastic card. She typed in the website address quickly, and stared dumbfoundedly at the screen. "Lover Shop?" she read aloud. "Is this some weird porno site or something!? Are they...trafficking human flesh!?"

Another line on the screen caught her eye. "Buy a figure now!" it read.

"Oh...thank goodness!" she breathed. "But...are they sex dolls or something? I'm a minor, how could he offer something like this to me?"

There was another link on the bottom of the page. "Heavenly Series is now out! Free 3-day trial!" Curious, Nina clicked on it, spotting a hot guy right away.

"Whoa!" she yelped. "He's a hottie!"

And there the clicking began; she clicked on him, clicked on options they offered to add to the figure, and clicked and clacked and typed away as the filled out a form, not giving it much thought and letting curiosity kill the cat-- brutally.

"Thank you for trying us out!" the screen read as she turned off the computer, not quite sure of what she'd done.

If only she knew.

"What's going on?" the small brunette asked herself the next day as she returned from another tiresome, lonely day of school. Outside the apartment building, two men were standing around a large package, staring at a sheet of paper on a clipboard.

One of them snapped their head up and locked his eyes on Nina. "You! Are you Nina? Apartment 5C?"

Still confused, she nodded.

"Package for you!" the other reported. Immediately, the two men began to bring the box labeled "Heavenly Oblivion" upstairs to her apartment.

Nina stared in shock the whole time.

"I don't understand!" she said to the package, as if it would answer her, once the delivery men were gone and the giant box was in the apartment safely. "I just ordered this thing yesterday!"

She put her hands on her hips and sighed. "Well, I might as well see what's inside!"

With that, she began to rip off the outside of the box, tearing away at it. Once she had torn most of it away, she realized that something was moving inside!

She blinked, her dark brown eyes staring in bewilderment. "No way!" Carefully, she took apart most of the paper before she realized that it was slowly falling over...

Rrrrrrrrrrriiiiiip!

It fell on top of Nina, sending them both crashing to the ground and the rest of the paper to rip away. Nina winced in pain, and then opened her eyes a little more to look at what had fallen.

She found herself staring at an innocent face, eyes closed and looking like it was sleeping; brown hair was spiked up in every which way, in such a cute way it was adorable. Nina sat up, feeling a little numb, and her eyes traced down his body, over his chest and his stomach and-

Oh my God, he's...naked!

RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINGGGGGGGG!

"GAH!" Nina shrieked, frantically reaching out to her cell phone that was now ringing loudly as ever; she couldn't take her eyes off of the naked boy.

"Hey, Nina! So did you get the product?" It was Axel.

"What did you send me!? Is it...dead or something!?" Nina yelled, practically in hysterics.

"No, dummy!" he chuckled. "You gotta read the manual! Enjoy! See you around!" Click.

She stared at the phone in disbelief. What was going on?

Carefully, Nina crawled over to the boy, running her hand over his chest carefully. "He sure feels real," she whispered in awe. "But...he's not breathing..."

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the manual Axel was talking about. She picked up the little black book and flipped through it.

"Ew! 'No risk of pregnancy'? I should kill that man!...ah, here it is-- 'Activation'." She sent another glance at the boy. "Uh...'A kiss is needed to activate the figure. Its lips are equipped with sensors that sense the kiss and immediately registers you as its lover.'"

"A kiss?" Nina repeated, setting down the book next to her. "But...I've never even kissed a guy," she sighed, ignoring how horribly pathetic that sounded at the moment.

Carefully, she flipped the boy over so he was on his back. He didn't budge other than the movements she made for him. "Well...here goes nothing."

Pushing her hair back behind her ear, though her bangs sprung back, she leaned forward and gently placed her lips to his. His lips were so very soft, and so very lifelike...

Suddenly below her, she saw bright cerulean eyes slowly open to look at her. She gasped, sitting up. The boy had opened his eyes!

A gentle smile formed on his kind-looking face, and he sat up with her, kissing her gently once more.

Nina could feel her face getting hot.

The boy broke the kiss, not moving away from her face, only holding it gently in his warm hands. And then he spoke. "Hello, girlfriend."

A/N: Okay! So there was the first chapter of Absolute Boyfriend! I'd been teetering over this idea for a while. Kingdom Hearts is my favorite game, and Absolute Boyfriend is my favorite manga, so I thought combining them would be a cute idea.

Anyway, if you've read the manga, this is basically going to follow through the whole thing. And if you haven't read it, well, like I said, this is pretty much the same thing with a KH style to it, but I highly recommend you read the manga.

Oh, and I haven't read/seen Chobits. So I wouldn't really know if anything if similar to it (besides the figure thing), though since this follows AB and not Chobits, I don't see any other reason why it would.

Oh yeah. And if any of you were wondering who the girl Kairi was talking about was (who Nina looks like), she's on YouTube under the username SpoonyChan. I love her videos so very much, and with my haircut, I sort of look like her from a certain angle, only sometimes. The reason I didn't put her name is cuz, well, first off, everyone calls her Roxas, and it'd be weird to have her say "You look like Roxas", now wouldn't it? xD

I'm not sure if I should bump up the rating or not. I mean, the manga itself is for 16+, I believe, and it's such a cute romantic comedy. If any of you feel I should bump up the rating, let me know.

I hope those of you who have read the manga like and agree with my choice of characters so far! They were fun to pick out.

No flames, please. They're a waste of time and Night will join up with Toshiki to take you down :D

Disclaimer:I don't own Kingdom Hearts or Absolute Boyfriend/Zettai Kareshi. Trust me, if I owned them, Night would have a Keyblade. Fun fun!
