Author Note: I don't own Kingdom Hearts. If I did, BBS would be out right NOW and on DS or PS2 so I don't have to buy a PSP -_-; (anyone share my pain?)
Oh, this is the final chapter! Enjoy, and I hope you're all looking foreword to the sequel, and I really want to hear your ideas for it too cos I'll probably use them! I have a few of my own which will make it interesting enough...
--------------
A week later...
Roxas held my hand gently as I stomped through the corridors of the maths block.
Our least favourite class.
I'd sooner sell a limb than do algebra.
I was in a bad mood for three reasons:
1) My mother was coming home in two weeks from now to torture me in various ways, 2) School was over for the year in a week, which means that my mom will probably be home all holidays, and 3) The maths teacher who absolutely despises me was our teacher for this class.
Apparently maths it's meant to make you smarter, but I beg to differ. I always come out of the room feeling a lot dumber than when I went in.
We entered the classroom gaining a disapproving stare from the teacher as his eyes burned through our entwined hands.
Apparently human contact was banned in this classroom.
I didn't let go of Roxas' hand though. I wasn't letting that heartless old bastard make me even less happy to be here.
We sat down at our desks next to each other and Roxas got out his origami paper. Usually he practiced his origami in maths class (at least he learnt something in maths class, even if it wasn't maths) and he was actually getting really good. He started to fold the brightly coloured paper stealthily under his pencil case so that the teacher didn't notice.
I decided to pay a visit to Namine Land (aka where I go when I zone out completely) and just ignore whatever the teacher was barking at us. It's not like I was ever going to use it in later life.
At least I hoped not.
I sat slumped in my chair with my head tilted lazily on a weird angle, just letting my thoughts run wild for a few minutes.
I was rudely interrupted.
"Akata state the value of Y" the teacher eyeballed me.
Shit.
No point in asking Roxas, he wouldn't have listened either.
Well, as far as I know, Y is the 25th letter in the alphabet...so I guess I'll go with that.
"Is it 25?" I asked half heartedly.
"No, Namine. Not even close. But I am surprised that you are aware of any numbers over 10" he huffed.
Oh you did not.
Before I jumped on his shoulders, tore his hair out and screamed at him, Roxas piped up.
"Stop playing her down she isn't an idiot" he growled.
That caught the teacher off guard. Roxas was usually very quiet during maths class, in fact he never talked to anyone but me. He was sort of shy around teachers, which was weird because around his friends he was so sure of himself and cheerful.
"I'm amazed that you actually paid enough attention to reply to something I said, Taoto" the teachers face started to turn red.
"Well it isn't like you say anything worth listening to" Roxas replied so casually, it was like someone had just asked him what the time was.
"Taoto. Get out" The fuming teacher pointed viciously at the doorway.
"Hmmm....nah I don't feel like moving. I'm comfy" Roxas shrugged.
I didn't know whether to laugh or run away out of terror.
The teacher loomed over his desk, reminding me of a massive storm cloud about to electrocute someone, spying Roxas' origami.
"What is it that you are making boy?" he spied the finished paper crane near Roxas' pencil case.
"A paper crane. They're meant to bring good luck and I was going to give it to my girlfriend" he said innocently.
I flushed when he called me his girlfriend, it made me feel so happy inside, to know that he loved me, and that he made me such a pretty gift.
"Well I have some unfortunate news for you Taoto. Your 'girlfriend' is going to need a lot more luck than one stupid paper bird to get her anywhere in life" he picked the crane up and crushed it in his hand, smiling cruelly.
My eyes widened in shock.
I heard someone in the back row gasp.
"You fucking bastard" Roxas narrowed his eyes at him.
Just because I was bad at maths doesn't mean that I was going to fail at everything!
"Uncouth language is not tolerated young man!" the teacher screamed right in Roxas' face.
"Yeah, neither is saying that I have no future!" I added, admiring a rather large blue vein that had popped up on his forehead.
"You children disgust me. Go to the office!" he boomed.
"Fine. We'll leave. Come on Namine" Roxas smiled and helped me out of my chair and wound his arm around my waist.
When we were a safe distance from the classroom I nearly bit Roxas' head off.
"Why did you say that we were going to the office?!" I whispered furiously. "I've never been there in my life! Oh god this is awful-"
"I never said that we were going to the office" he cut me off and raised his eyebrows slyly. "I only said that we were leaving"
"Oh...right" I smiled but it soon fell off my face.
"What's wrong Nam?" Roxas and I sat down under a tree in the oval. I doubted that we'd get caught for truanting class because as if the teachers would want to be wandering round the school when they could be having a cup of coffee in the staff lounge.
"I..."
"Are you ok? Please tell me what's the matter" he whispered and kissed me on the cheek.
I took a deep breath.
"I'm scared of when my mother gets home" I admitted quietly.
"Namine you shouldn't worry about her. She's crazy. Just ignore everything that she says because none of it is true" he told me gently.
"But...it is just awful knowing that your own mother hates you...and she'll probably be home all holidays..." I could feel tears spring into my eyes.
Roxas put his hands on my shoulders.
"But Namine, we all love you. Especially me, I always have. You need to focus on that, and not on your stupid excuse for a parent" he eyes locked with mine.
"This is getting all teen soap operary" I smiled and put my hand on his cheek.
"Well, can we get to the part when we accidently touch hands because you drop all of your books?" he grinned at me, and then spun around only to dump all of the contents of his bag on the ground.
"Err why'd you do that?" I asked as he rummaged through all of the crap he had accumulated over the year.
"Found it!" he grinned and handed me another piece of his origami, which amazingly wasn't squished.
It was a red and gold lotus, and it was absolutely gorgeous.
"Where did you learn to do this?!" I asked admiring it. He'd obviously put a lot of work into this one.
"Internet" he smiled meekly. "I hope you like it. I sacrificed an hour of time that I should have been studying in to make it for you"
"That is so kind of you...I really love it!" I smiled and kissed him on the cheek, causing him to blush.
"I'm sorry about the crane I was making you...that bastard teacher-"
"It's fine Roxas. We shouldn't let someone as low as him get to us" I laid my head on his shoulder.
Wow, he had gotten tall.
"I know. He has the bitchy techniques of a 16- year old girl" Roxas rolled his eyes.
"Are you implying something about me?" I grinned and slapped his arm.
"Seriously? Shut. Up" Roxas widened his eyes and flipped his hair with his girlie voice.
I laughed because he sounded so gay. American school girl Roxas is not to be messed with.
I felt like playing along but I just couldn't bring myself to do it.
I saw Roxas' smile fall from his face and I felt horrible.
"She'll verbally abuse me when she gets home...if she finds about us..." I trailed off and I felt a tear run down my cheek. Jeez, I was just laughing. What's wrong with me?
"I'VE GOT AN IDEA!" Roxas randomly sprang up but I tugged on his arm so he'd sit back down.
"I'm really scared now" I looked at him. He was smiling manically.
"Namine. You said if she finds out about us"
"And?"
"Are you honestly that dense?"
"Apparently" I shrugged.
"I reckon a four-year-old could have come up with this, but I think that it might work. We'll just pretend not to be together when we're around your mom!"
I am so stupid.
"You think it'll work? Like all holidays?" I raised an eyebrow.
"Maybe!" he grinned.
"I was hoping for a 'yes' but I reckon that we could try it" I smiled.
"That's the spirit!" he jumped up again. "Now come to my house and I'll make you waffles"
"But we still have 2 more lessons..." I looked up at him.
He just stared at me like I was insane.
"Fine. I'm coming" I went to get up, and you can guess what happened.
He picked me up bridal-style and marched over to the parking lot
"Why do you always do this?" I smiled at him.
"Well...I guess you could say I'm practicing for the real thing. Get used to it" he smiled arrogantly and laughed.
I turned bright red while my brain practically had a party.
He kissed the top of my head and I immediately knew that no matter what happened with my mother; I would always have Roxas.

Author Note:
Yayy for cheesy endings :D
Hope you guys liked. Writing a Kingdom Hearts story with the Ouran High School Host Club theme song stuck in your head (it is weird, but I seriously love the show) and knowing that you have to face another year of school isn't easy, but I try DX
OMG 358/2 DAYS NEEDS MORE NAMIXAS :'( Roxas is all 'Wahh girls are so complicated...Xion's being mean D':"
Where is Namine when you need her?
AND RIKU FREAKING PUNCHED XION. OH MY GOD VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN MUCH?!
I guess I'll give him the benefit of the doubt because he IS walking around blindfolded...
Anyway, I honestly could write a whole book on how I feel about this game (love ittt :D. ) so I'll stop myself now.
Well, I hope you all enjoyed reading this story as much as I enjoyed writing it. I really love writing about Roxas and Namine, they are just so cute!
I actually started writing this story when I got a letter saying that I had to go to an awards night. I thought: "Well, I can vent my problems to the world in Kingdom Hearts format. Maybe people will enjoy it..."
Yep. I had to sit in between people I really didn't like, and I got 2nd in History (I was so annoyed because I really thought that I deserved the art one seeing that it is the only subject that I look foreword to and that I'm good at D: and I never even knew I was good at history until then) and yeah, the girl like Selphie got the art award...but unfortunately Roxas wasn't there with his video camera :'(
So some parts of this story are just my life, but way more interesting hahaha.
Oh and if you'd like to see my DeviantART page (mainly KH drawings :D ), just PM me and I'll gladly tell you my user name...but I'd prefer if you were going to comment on my drawings that you didn't mention my fics...
Thank you to everyone that took the time to read and review this story. You are more of an inspiration than you'd think, and I sincerely appreciate you for reviewing, and knowing that you actually enjoy what I write.
Review :D
