TA: I want to say this now. Please hear me out. The first three chapters are horribly written, I'll admit, but if you can get past through these first three chapters, I can promise you that the writing will get better from then on. :)

Say It Isn't So!

Chapter 1: Unrequited Love

'Ugh, just look at him,' Roxas thought in disgust as he covered his mouth with his hand. He watched Axel on the other side of the cafeteria laughing it up with Marluxia and Demyx. 'It still amazes me that he, of all people, is the school president!' Roxas glared daggers at the side of Axel's head as he recalled losing to him in the vote.

Roxas took a bite from his hotdog angrily practically beheading the poor thing and continued his onslaught on Axel with his eyes. Sora, who sat next to him, sighed as he poked at his macaroni and cheese. School lunches weren't exactly the best. He had been watching Roxas glare at Axel throughout the whole lunch period.

Marluxia and Demyx slowly got up and walked away from Axel. The two headed toward the cafeteria lines to get their food while Axel sat at their table. Unfortunately, he was sitting in a position where he could face Roxas... in a sense.

Axel then noticed the fact that he was being watched, quite intently might I add. He scanned the room until his eyes landed on Roxas. He grinned deviously as his eyes fell slightly. He propped up his elbow and rested his head on his hand as he engaged into a staring contest with Roxas.

Roxas took yet another bite from his hotdog... very... aggressively...

Axel licked his lips seductively. He eyed Roxas with half-lidded eyes and stared at him with what seemed like a call for sex... hard, long sex. Hell, even Sora noticed it. The girls and the boys around him nearly fell off of their seats as they saw Axel. The girls squealed softly while others sighed dreamily. The boys hid their frustration as they squirmed in their seats uncomfortably.

Roxas paused as he looked down at his food. He scowled as he shoved the thing into the trash and refused to eat lunch. Sora had burst into a fit of laughter while Axel chuckled oh-so-sexily at Roxas.

"Looks like my Roxas is growing up!" Sora joked as he pretended to wipe a tear from his eye. "I'm so proud!" He hugged Roxas while he continued with his laughter.

"Stop it Sora!" Roxas snapped as he tried to pull away. "He's just some horny fool. Besides, he's not my type."

"So... What is your type?" Sora asked as he pushed his face into Roxas's.

Roxas backed away as he shoved away Sora's face with his hand. "I'm picky; I don't like just anyone."

"I can tell," Sora nodded. He chucked his mac and cheese into the trash can and started to poke Roxas's arm. "You haven't been with anyone since the... what? Second grade? It was a girl too..."

"Who? Naminé?" Roxas asked. "We barely knew that we were going out! Hell, we probably didn't even know what that meant."

Sora laughed and thought about it. "There's only one for me."

"Yeah, I know," Roxas said with a sly grin. He turned to face Sora and poked his forehead. "He's got silver hair and he fits you perfectly."

Sora blushed. "Well... so what?" Sora said. He was completely flustered. This happened every time someone would mention Riku and himself in the same sentence. "At least I'm not pretending by saying that I hate him!"

"What is that supposed to mean?" Roxas shot. He narrowed his eyes at Sora dangerously.

"Ohhhh nothing," Sora grinned. "Hey, I'm going to get something to drink. Buh-bye!" With that, Sora jumped out of his seat and happily skipped to the vending machine.

"He... did that... on purpose," Roxas mumbled. His eye twitched; he shook his head and buried his head in his arms. "I should have won..." Roxas could feel the cold surface of the table against his cheek. "Why did I have to lose to him...?"

"Tell me, do you talk to yourself often?" a voice asked with amusement.

Roxas jumped at the voice. He brought his head up to face Demyx. "D-Demyx! What are you doing here? You nearly scared the living shit out of me!" Roxas calmed down as Sora sat beside him again.

"Hey Demyx," Sora greeted. "What brings you to our little table?" He opened his drink and took a small sip as if testing it. "You normally sit with Axel."

"Well, actually, I'm here to talk to you," Demyx grinned.

"Me? Or Sora?" Roxas asked. He expected Demyx to say 'Sora.' He was the more popular one. Roxas just had the brains. Even if they were brothers, Sora was definitely the cuter one. Even Roxas knew that much. Not only that, but Sora was always around Riku. Riku was the basketball team's MVP (Most Valuable Player). He's also got a grade point average of 4.0.

"Sora," Demyx replied.

"I knew it," Roxas mumbled so that only he could hear it. "Hey Sora, I'm going to get something from the snack bar. My lunch earlier wasn't very... satisfying." Roxas almost cringed as he remembered Axel licking his lips seductively.

"Yeah sure," Sora nodded.

Roxas left the two alone. He reallly didn't want to hear what they were about to talk about. He went into the line in front of the bar and settled on buying a cookie.

"So what's up?" Sora asked as he took another sip of his drink.

"I want your help," Demyx stated. "Marluxia does too... and deep down inside, Axel and Roxas do too."

Sora perked up as he heard 'Axel and Roxas.' "I'm in!" Sora exclaimed hurriedly.

"But you don't even know!" Demyx said in shock.

"I don't care!" Sora pouted.

Demyx laughed and nodded. "Okay, you've heard about the paopu fruit, right?"
