Love: Unrequited? Spoiler: click to toggle On a warm summer evening, a 16 year old boy by the name of Riku found himself reunited with his two lost friends at long last. For the past year he had been battling the darkness inside his heart, feeling that he could not return to those he loved unless he found a way to overcome the darkness that had cost him everything. Brushing back a strand of his long silvery white hair, Riku sat there on the same tree the three of them would always sit on, talking on and on about nothing and everything in between. He sat there all alone for his friends Sora and Kairi were both fast asleep at home, he had trouble sleeping ever since that letter in the bottle had washed ashore. Sora and Kairi had both read it, but he had not, Riku didn't want to know what it said, whatever it was he just knew that it would mean the one person he loved more than life itself would have to leave again. It was well after midnight, Riku looked up at the sky and saw nothing but thousands of stars, as well as a big round moon off to one side. The waves crashed so gently against the shore, a warm breeze tickled his face which now was actually his own once more. Riku then turned his focus on the sea, it looked so dark yet peaceful, it wasn't to long ago that he'd wished for nothing more than to leave the islands that once felt like a prison to him. Now he viewed his island home as not a prison, but a very special place, after having been to so many other worlds and fighting all the way it was nice to be able to just sit back and relax for a change. For the first week Riku, Sora and Kairi were inseparable, but now after several months they were both busy with other things and he hardly ever saw them anymore. The last time he tried to see Sora, he got the 'I have homework' excuse and was forced to leave, it hurt Riku more than anyone would ever know not being able to tell Sora something. It was something he'd been feeling for awhile now, but he never paid it much attention until after they all came back home together, Riku was grateful to Sora for everything he went through trying to find him. His gratitude soon turned into affection, then into love before long Sora was all Riku could think about. "But now he won't even give me the time of day.........." He muttered out loud, barely loud enough to be heard over the sound of the waves. At first Riku criticized himself for being in love with his childhood friend, after all he'd seen the way Sora looked at Kairi and how he hung on her every word, Riku was almost jealous of how Kairi had Sora's heart in the palm of her hand and she didn't even seem to be overly aware of just how into her Sora was. "Why her?, she never looked after him for a whole year while he slept. She never fought by his side against Xemnas, all she did was get kidnapped...............I did all the work and yet she gets the reward, it's not fair!!" Riku screamed vainly in frustration, slamming his fist hard into the trunk of the tree that he's sitting on. The pain startled him at first, his whole right hand began throbbing but he just sat there despite it. Riku went over in his mind how he'd just walk up to Sora and randomly announce that he was in love with him, but every scenario he'd imagine would end badly or awkwardly and all of them shared the same rejection scene, Riku was scared to death that Sora would hate him for how he felt about him. Or worse he'd deny it and act like it never happened, all the while Riku would still feel the stinging of his rejection every time he'd look into those big blue eyes. "I have to tell him..............Even if........" He doesn't finish the sentence, fearing that doing so will make it come true. After an hour or so Riku rises to his feet, he leaves the island that he and his friends played on to return home, his house is silent and dark, Riku's mother is sound asleep upstairs. Finding his way through the darkness, Riku eventually ends up in his bedroom, undresses and climbs into bed. Pulling the covers up to his chest he can't help but think about Sora, and how they used to sleep over at each others houses all the time, those days seemed like they were decades ago now. "I used to be his whole world, before she ever came into the picture........." He groans silently, before falling into a restless slumber. Dawn breaks and passes, it is mid-day before Riku awakens, he gazes at his alarm clock and realizes how late it is. "Oh no I'm gonna be late for class!!" He shouts frantically, before racing out of bed and into the shower. After his shower he gets dressed, styles his hair, grabs his books and is about to take off out of the house when his mother nearly bumps into him in the kitchen. "Good afternoon sleepy head, why are you running around in such a rush on a Saturday for?" She asks him, giggling slightly. "Saturday.........so there's no classes today.............dammit." Riku groans in annoyance, sitting down at the kitchen table. "Awww don't worry about it, here how about I fix you some breakfast." She offers. His mother ends up making him french toast, the same french toast she always would make him when he was having a rough start to the day, they talked slightly. After he finished eating she began clearing the dishes away to be washed, it was his day to wash them, he didn't mind it because it was one less thing to remind him of Sora. "Oh and before I forget, Sora stopped by earlier. I called and called to you, but you never answered or came out of your room so Sora just said he'd stop by another time." She told him while he was drying a plate, as soon as she mentioned his name he froze and then when she finished speaking he dropped the plate. It crashed to the floor and shattered into hundreds of tiny pieces, Riku just stood there looking like someone had just shot him in the foot. "Riku!!, what happened why on earth did you drop that plate just now? Usually you're more careful than this.........." She asks him point blank, with a concerned expression on her not so youthful face. "I don't know what happened...........It must've........slipped out of my hands........" He lied, she merely shook her head, sent him out of the kitchen while she cleaned up the broken plate and took over washing and drying the dishes. Riku having left the kitchen decides to crash on the sofa and see what's on TV, but every channel he flips through somehow reminded him about Sora in some fashion, getting fed up he tosses the remote onto the cushion beside him. "He should be sitting there, goofing around as usual but still..........." Riku thinks to himself, after trying to find reasons not to and failing he decides to pay Sora a visit, without even telling his mother who is still busy doing dishes, Riku leaves his house and walks to Sora's place which is only 3 houses down from his. "I hope he's home, I can't put it off any longer.........He has to know...." Riku's thoughts race as he knocks on the door, which opens and staring back at him from the other side isn't Sora. "Hi Riku, from what Sora tells me it looks like you majorly slept in today." Kairi greets him, letting him inside and laughs at him. Riku can't help but look crestfallen, of all the people to answer Sora's door why'd it have to be her? "Yeah I had a rough night last night..............Is Sora home Kairi?, I need to talk to him about something........" He replies looking at her carefully. She returns his gaze, before making a silly face causing both of them to laugh. "Yeah he's here........somewhere said he had something he wanted to show me." She answers with a giggle. Suddenly Sora comes running into the room, dressed as some sort of super hero, he races around the room and attacks the furniture with his Oathkeeper Keyblade, the one Kairi gave him over a year ago. "So what do you think Kairi?, I was working on this costume all day yesterday." Sora asks her, not even acknowledging Riku's presence at first. "Hmm it's definitely something a super hero would wear, but what super hero are you called Sora?" She responds, before bursting into a fit of giggles. "Hmph he looks like a fool, no way you'd catch me dead looking like that........" Riku remarks, crossing his arms. "So that's what he was so busy with yesterday, that he couldn't be bothered to hear me out for five minutes!!!" Riku thinks bitterly, his jealousy begins to stir within him, but is soon dulled. He had more important matters to worry about, like how Sora would react to what he had to tell him. The three of them hang out for awhile, talk and less than an hour later Kairi tells the boys she has to go home and help her adoptive parents prepare supper. Riku is relieved to see her leave, Sora however begs her to stay just a little longer, she smiles and tells him she'll come back after supper before walking out the front door and leaving. "You came to see me earlier today?" Riku asks, curious to know the answer to his question. "Yeah I just wanted to know if you wanted to hang out and help me put the finishing touches on this costume, Kairi seemed to like it huh?" Sora replies casually, Riku forces a smile but inside he feels intense disappointment, he attempts to hide it and Sora doesn't seem to notice. "Sora............There's something I want to tell you..............something you need to know, you see after everything we've been through I........." Riku's announcement is interrupted by a ringing phone, which Sora answers, it's Kairi apparently her parents can't decide what to make for supper and she just had to tell Sora all about it. Sora prattles on and on over the phone with Kairi, meanwhile Riku is sitting there right beside him waiting to tell him how he feels about him, only to be postponed due to the mindless drivel of Kairi. Riku can't help but think negative thoughts regarding her, but after 15-20 minutes she has to get off the phone and help make whatever it was her parents decided on making. "Sorry bout that Riku, you were saying?" Sora apologizes and waits for Riku to carry on. "Okay so like I was saying we've been through a lot together right, well it's made me realize something................about you...............Sora.........I'm in love with you!!" Riku finishes his earlier statement, he closes his eyes awaiting Sora's response, but he doesn't hear anything. Opening his eyes he sees Sora texting someone on his cell phone, it's most likely Kairi again, Riku soon realizes that Sora probably didn't hear half of what he just told him. Glaring wildly at him with his green eyes Riku suddenly lunges at Sora, rips his cell away from him and throws it hard on the floor, Sora freaks out and nearly cries at the sight of his beloved phone all smashed up. "Dammit Riku what'd you go and do that for?" Sora demands, sounding quite annoyed. "Why because you weren't even listening to me!!, I had something very important to tell you and you just can't be bothered..................all you care about is HER!!!!!!" Riku screams at him in a rage. "Her? you mean Kairi, of course I care about her, I love Kairi." Sora blurts out, suddenly Riku summons his keyblade Way to the Dawn, and attacks Sora with it. They both begin fighting, Sora continually asks Riku what's the matter with him, but Riku doesn't answer with words only vicious slashes with his keyblade. Eventually Sora manages to knock Riku's keyblade out of his hand, it goes sailing into a lamp before vanishing, causing the lamp to fall over with a crash. "Go on finish me off, the sooner you're rid of me the sooner you can be with her.............and forget I ever existed and to think I survived the darkness for YOU!!!!" Riku shouts angrily, hot tears shooting down his face, Sora looks shocked by this display of emotion. "What are you talking about Riku, I could never forget about you, you're my best friend we're like brothers." Sora tells him, which makes Riku sob even more. "All you ever think about anymore is Kairi, Forgive me if I feel like I'm the last thing on your mind lately........" Riku states bitterly. "Okay what's really going on Riku, why are you so mad about me thinking about Kairi?" Sora asks looking carefully, thoughtfully into Riku's tear filled eyes. "I already told you, I'm in love with you Sora, you're all I think about all the time and I love everything about you. The way you laugh, how you're such a scatterbrain at times, how you never gave up on me even when I'd given up on myself............I've felt like this for awhile but I never noticed it until now.........." Riku answers, as tears continue to fall from his emerald colored eyes. After what seems like an eternity, Sora finally manages to respond to what Riku said to him just then, the answer Riku was so dreading turned out to be one he never expected. "Wow............I never would've have guessed that you'd like me like that....................wait you're not trying to pull some prank on me are you, did Kairi put you up to this?" Sora responds with a puzzled look on his boyishly handsome face. "Come on Sora, I thought you knew me better than that...............What I just told you is all true, it...........came from my heart......." Riku answers him, looking down onto the floor. "I'm dreaming............I must be dreaming, no way this is real................" Sora mutters in disbelief, Riku suddenly tackles Sora onto the sofa, he then presses his lips against Sora's and they kiss briefly before Riku gets shoved off of Sora and onto the floor. "You can't tell me that was a dream, trust me Sora that kiss was REAL, and it was every bit what I imagined it would be..........." Riku informs him with a devilish grin. "Okay so I'm not dreaming then, but that means that.............my best friend is in love with me and he just KISSED me just now............" Sora comes to a realization, before freaking out over the kiss. "Calm down I just wanted to prove to you that everything that happened here was real, sorry if I got carried away........." Riku tells him, before standing up again. Silence soon engulfs the pair of them, that horrible awkward silence that tends to drag out forever, they both sit together on the sofa in silence after everything that had transpired. After about 20 minutes one of them speaks. "Sora.........say something, please..............anything at all, just don't give me the silent treatment.........." Riku pleads, looking directly at his best friend who is still in shock. "What am I supposed to say?, go on Riku you seem to have all the answers so why don't you tell me what I should say........." Sora replies coldly, almost hatefully. "Stop it Sora, I know it's not what you wanted to hear but...............I had to tell you, before you and Kairi got too serious.................I have to know how you feel about me." Riku requests, his eyes still focused on Sora who has a look of anger and disgust on his face. "How I feel about you, well for one thing I'm NOT in love with you Riku, I love Kairi and only Kairi!!" He shouts viciously, leaving Riku to shake his head in disappointment. "Hah if that was true then why did you kiss me back when I kissed you back there?" Riku demands with a determined expression. "I didn't kiss you back, you're just making stuff up now.................." Sora denies the allegation vehemently. Before Riku can respond to his last remark, Sora's front door swings wide open all of a sudden, Kairi barges right in causing Sora to leap up off of the sofa and rush toward her. "Woah take it easy Sora, looks like someone missed me while I was gone." She says with a giggle, Sora smiles at her and then he suddenly pulls her into a passionate kiss, Kairi who is temporarily caught off guard just stands there at first before responding accordingly. Riku sees the two of them and he feels the jealousy and the resentment starting to take hold of him again, soon he can bear the sight of them no longer, he rises to his feet and heads for the open door. "Hey Riku where are you going, I just got back c'mon stay just a little bit longer please?" Kairi asks him, reaching out to grab him by his right arm. "Sorry Kairi, but I can't stay here.............Sora's made that perfectly clear to me now, I'll see you around.............." Riku states coldly, not wanting to show his true emotions in front of her, she nods and lets go of him. "What's his problem, okay Sora what did you do this time?" She questions him sternly, turning to face Sora, who puts on his innocent little boy face. "I didn't do anything, it was him............Riku he...............came onto me before you got back......" He confesses, his eyes fall to the floor. "No way!!, you're joking right..................RIGHT???" Kairi demands, sounding genuinely shocked. "I wish I was..............I told him I didn't feel that way about him, that you're the only person I'm in love with." Sora tells her with a smile at the end, they both share another kiss before Riku is far enough away not to be able to see or hear them anymore. Having just poured his heart out to Sora, only for him to crush it, Riku finds himself back at the play island, no one else is there. He sits down on the same spot he did the previous night, his stomach growled with hunger, but he ignored it and stayed there despite it. He couldn't go home, not yet not until he could process everything that had went down between him and Sora. "Well I wanted to know how he felt and I guess now I know.................he doesn't love me, and he never will.................all he wants is HER!!!!!!!! Damn her, and him how could they do this to me???" He screams in despair, not caring one bit if anyone heard him or not, he then spies a small pebble which he grabs and violently tosses into the water. Just then a boy with blond hair can be spotted in the water near where the pebble was thrown, he spots Riku and swims to shore. "Hey Riku, you know you really ought to watch where you throw those pebbles. That one almost hit me in the head, you must be really mad about something." Tidus states before sitting down beside him, Riku suddenly feels bad about throwing that pebble before checking to make sure the water was free of swimmers. "Sorry Tidus I didn't know you were swimming today, I didn't think anyone would be here.............." Riku apologizes, he avoids eye contact with Tidus, he doesn't want him to know what has him so upset. "It's okay man, it happens......say wanna go swimming with me?" Tidus offers, which forces Riku to look at him. "Shouldn't you be asking Wakka, Selphie or the happy couple that..........." he answers, crossing his arms. "I asked Wakka, but he said that he and Selphie were going to help a friend that's behind on their classwork. As for the happy couple, they never wanna do anything with me anymore..........it's like they're married......" Tidus remarks with a weird expression, Riku's eyes suddenly light up. "Don't SAY that ever again!!!!!!" He shouts angrily, Tidus cowers slightly. "Whoa man take it easy what did I say?, oh wait about Sora and Kairi being married................sorry man didn't think it'd bother you so much......" Tidus states quietly, looking at Riku with a look of concern mixed with curiosity. "It's okay you didn't mean to rub it in, I shouldn't have snapped at you like that...........you know what maybe I will go for a swim with you." Riku tells him, cracking a slight smile. The two of them swim for at least an hour, splashing each other, playing all the games they used to play together with the others in the water. After wards they both find themselves sitting on the beach, the warm sand surrounds them, the sun beginning to set. "Thanks Tidus, I...........Really needed that, you know that's the most fun I've had in weeks." He tells him,while drawing random things in the sand. "No problem, thanks for hanging out with me Riku, hey I'm starved wanna grab a bite to eat?" Tidus asks, smiling widely. "Sure why not, my mom probably left money for pizza cuz she works night shift on Saturdays." Riku replies, sounding genuinely happy, the pair of them race back to Riku's house. Once there Riku heads into the kitchen, finds a note and some money on the kitchen table. "Just wanted to let you know work called, I won't be home until late tonight, here's some money buy yourself something to eat. Love mom." Riku reads the note aloud, before grabbing the phone to order some pizza. "Tidus what kind of pizza you want?" he asks while waiting on hold. "Umm how bout deep dish destiny, it's the best one cuz it has everything." Tidus tells him, making himself cozy on the sofa in the living room. "Right sounds fine by me." Riku replies, he then tells the pizza place what he wants and that he wants it delivered, hangs up the phone and flops on the sofa beside Tidus. "Mind if I catch the last half of the game on TV?" Tidus asks, the remote already in his right hand. "Yeah go ahead, I wanna see who wins myself." Riku tells him, leaning back a bit with his arms behind his head. Watching the game, they both start to relax and really get into the game, in the final few minutes the game-winning goal is scored, both guys cheer loudly and celebrate their team's victory. Then someone knocks on the door, "Must be the delivery guy." Riku thinks, rushing to answer the door. Standing there in a delivery boy uniform is none other than Sora, when he and Riku see each other they both instantly remember what happened at Sora's house earlier, Sora shoves the large pizza box at Riku and demands money for it. "Hmph since when do you work at the pizza place, a little strapped for cash these days?" Riku snidely remarks, giving Sora the exact amount for the pizza. "Oh and don't bother asking for a tip, my money would only be wasted on you............you'd probably use it to buy some worthless trinket for Kairi anyway." He adds sounding bitter and blunt, Sora snatches the money but doesn't say anything, he leaves and Riku practically slams the door in his face. "Okay Riku what's up did you and Sora have a fight or something?" Tidus asks cautiously, sneaking a slice of pizza out of the box Riku still has clenched in his hand. "I don't wanna talk about it.........let's just enjoy this pizza and watch some TV." Riku replies sternly, he flops back down on the sofa and sets the box on the coffee table in front of him, he reaches in grabs a slice and chomps down on it. "I'll be a fool before I let him ruin pizza for me..............." Riku thinks to himself, savoring every bite. Tidus finishes the last piece of pizza, his face has messy sauce smeared on the sides of his mouth, Riku can't help but laugh at him. "Mmm that was good, thanks man now I'm ready to do some serious channel surfing." Tidus says with a grin, he grabs the remote and starts flicking through random channels, Riku just leans back and closes his eyes for a moment. "Should I tell him?, what if he laughs at me and leaves.............but if I don't tell someone soon I'll drive myself crazy.........Ahh I'll tell him." Riku debates with himself in his mind, meanwhile Tidus is contently changing channels every two to three seconds. "Tidus......you asked me about what's going on between Sora and me, I think I'm ready to tell you everything now.........." Riku announces, Tidus stops on a random news channel and focuses on what Riku has to say. "Earlier today.............I kinda........well, I told Sora that I was in love with him and he took it and threw Kairi practically in my face...........I feel like such a fool now, I never should've said anything..............I think I may have ruined our friendship............" Riku continues, his tone growing sad and remorseful, Tidus stares blankly at him for several seconds before it all sinks in. "Whoa!!, I never would've guessed you of all people would fall in love with Sora............man I feel for ya, I really do..........must be rough knowing he doesn't feel the same way about you huh?" Tidus offers his condolences, then he looks into Riku's eyes very carefully for quite some time, before planting a surprise kiss on Riku's lips. In that instant his whole body freezes except for his mouth, which kisses back of it's own accord. Tidus breaks the kiss and stares at Riku, waiting for his reaction, after several minutes pass Riku regains control of his body again. "What was that for.............why would you kiss ME?" Riku asks, sounding dazed and very confused. With a smile, he takes Riku's hand, holds it tightly. "Why not, you looked so down and well I've wanted to have the nerve to do that for ages, you know the old you would've pounded me for that but you've changed since then.........." Tidus answers, still holding Riku's hand in his own. "I know I've changed, and I haven't really been there for you guys, I promise I'll be there for you all more from now on...........and Tidus...........thanks that kiss meant a lot......" Riku tells him with a slight smile, suddenly Riku begins to feel much better. "I should probably get going on home, wouldn't want mom to worry........" Tidus says, but before he can get to the door Riku grabs him, pulling him close. "Don't go.............stay the night, with me............you can call your mom if you want, just please don't leave me.........." Riku begs, with a hint of desperation in his voice, he wasn't ready for this good feeling to end just yet. "Alright I'll stay, where's your phone? If I don't call mom within the next five minutes she'll have people searching for me." He jokes, Riku tosses him the cordless phone, he can't help but smile knowing that he didn't have to spend another night all alone. Tidus calls his mom, tells her he's spending the night at a friends place, then hangs up and tackles Riku onto the sofa. Time passes and the two of them now find themselves in Riku's bed, Tidus lays on one side under the covers sound asleep and snoring softly, Riku lies on the other side on his back staring up at his ceiling. "Did this day really happen??, or was it all just a dream and when I wake up he'll be gone and Sora won't know how I feel about him................No I want THIS to be real, it just has to be........" Riku ponders to himself, he then pinches his left arm and winces at the sharp, sudden pain that rushes through it. "Nope this is no dream, it's............real but that means I............with Tidus and Sora still hates me........." He thinks further, smiling at first, which soon turns to a frown. He rolls over to his side and faces Tidus, he runs his fingers through Tidus's hair, Riku nearly jumps when Tidus mumbles something incoherently before resuming his gentle snoring. "He's so cute, even when he's sleeping, how come I never noticed him before? Maybe I was too focused on Sora to notice anyone else................who am I kidding I'm STILL focused on Sora..........the whole time I was with Tidus tonight, I was thinking about Sora, imagining it was Sora and not him.........." Riku ridicules himself, before closing his eyes and falling into deep slumber, filled with strange and unusual dreams. Morning breaks and soon turns to afternoon, Riku opens his eyes and sits up rapidly, he looks besides him. "No one there...............but it wasn't a dream, where is he???" Riku mumbles, before getting dressed and flying down the hall to the kitchen, his mother is there mopping the floor. "Good afternoon sleepy head, oh I see you had a friend over last night, he said to tell you that he needed to go run errands for his mother, so how come I've never seen you hang out with this boy before?" His mother says, looking up at him. "I don't know.................I don't bring all my friends over you know..............." Riku states, before fixing himself something to eat, he contemplates whether or not to confront Sora again over a bowl of cereal. "Riku darling could you do me a HUGE favor?, I'm kinda in cleaning mode here and well it's a lot easier to clean up after you when you're not here." She informs him, giggling slightly. "Fine.........I was heading out anyway, see you later.........." he replies dryly, before leaving his half eaten bowl of cereal behind and walking out the front door, deciding against facing Sora right now he decides to head to the play island to think things over more. When he gets there he decides to pay a visit to the secret cave, behind a waterfall that he, Sora and Kairi used to play in all the time when they were younger. Before Riku can even enter the cave voices can be heard coming from within it, two distinct voices can be clearly made out, he instantly recognizes them as belonging to Sora and Kairi. "So.........they're here..........pfft figures, just because I wanted to think in there...........well may as well eavesdrop and see what they're talking about, if anything..........." He mutters under his breath, carefully moving in closer to get a better listen of their conversation. "C'mon Kairi we just got here, now you wanna go?" Sora demands, sounding slightly annoyed. "I'm sorry but it totally slipped my mind, I have to help Selphie with a.............class project, I promised her Sora you know I don't break promises." Kairi states firmly, she sounds almost desperate to get out of there. "What's with you, why is it whenever I wanna spend some alone time with you, you suddenly remember something you forgot to do, or make up some sort of excuse to get away from me? Don't you like me Kairi?" He asks her point blank, she doesn't answer right away, Riku's mind races from what he's hearing. "Of course I like you Sora, we're friends right?" She finally answers. "Give me a break Kairi, you know that's not what I meant at all." Sora groans. "I'm sorry...........I have to.............go........" She says weakly, but Sora isn't ready to let her go just yet. "What about that Kiss?, did it mean anything to you at all?" He demands, in a harsh tone. "It was just a kiss, that's all...........that's all it can ever be.............Sorry Sora but I'm already late................" Kairi answers, before racing out of the cave, sensing her departure Riku quickly hides so she doesn't see him. She rushes to a boat and rows her way back furiously to the main island, Riku is surprised that Sora isn't chasing after her, he decides to enter the cave and see how Sora is doing. Riku reaches the mouth of the cave, but stops when he hears Sora sobbing, he works up his nerve and ventures inside. "Kairi?, did you change you mind abo-, oh............it's you...........what do you want Riku?" Sora says, his voice going from hopeful to bitter, he proceeds to bury his face in his legs. "Sorry I'm not who you wanna see right now, I heard what happened.............for what it's worth I'm sorry Sora, I know how it feels to love someone and not have them love you back, I know all too well............" Riku replies, sitting next to Sora, who is still crying. "That's right..........I made you feel like........this...........how I'm feeling right now..............Riku I'm..........." Sora states, between sobs. "It's okay...........I know..............and I forgive you, I'll always forgive you Sora........" Riku responds, Sora suddenly surprises him with a hug, Riku holds Sora close letting him cry onto his shoulder. After some time passes Sora stops crying, the two of them sit side by side in the secret cave, gazing at all the drawings etched into the rocks that make up the walls. "So you said that Kairi is forever blowing you off to do something with Selphie right?" Riku asks, a hint of curiosity in his voice. "Yeah and the weird part is............Sometimes I'd swing by Selphie's house to see how they're doing, but neither one of them are even there half the time............." Sora answers, while gazing upward. "Hmm why don't we call Kairi's bluff, and see what her and Selphie are really up to?" Riku suddenly suggests, a grin appearing on his face. "Yeah, I'd like to know the answer to that myself." Sora exclaims, the two of them then run out of the cave, hop in the boat Riku used and paddle back to the main island for some answers. They both finally arrive and head right for Selphie's house, peering in through the windows they discover that no one is home, odd considering what Kairi had said earlier. "Told you they aren't here.........." Sora mutters. "Perhaps we should check Kairi's house?" Riku advises, they both run as fast as they can to Kairi's house, but all the windows have the curtains drawn. "Heh, with all the windows obstructed it practically screams that they're here, doing something they obviously don't want anyone else to see......." Riku states. "Then there's only one way to find out the truth, we're going in!!!!!" Sora announces, grabbing the front doorknob and opening the door, what he sees beyond the door freezes him in his tracks. "OH MY GOD THEY'RE!!!!!!!! ugh I think i'm gonna be sick............" Riku shouts, before a wave of nausea hits him like a semi truck, he then proceeds to go behind some bushes. "How COULD you Kairi???, you've been lying to me for months!!" Sora screams angrily at her. "Sora what are YOU doing here??" Kairi demands in a shocked tone. "Wait you never TOLD him about us Kai?" Selphie questions her, sounding reasonablly upset. "I guess she figured that she could string both of us along, you make me SICK Kairi..........and you definitely made Riku sick............literally" Sora answers Selphie's question, ignoring Kairi's. "No that's not true..........I was gonna tell him later today, I swear Selph. I love you and you're the ONLY person I'm in love with..........." Kairi insists frantically, Selphie however doesn't appear to be buying it. "I can't believe you felt like you had to keep us a secret from our friends...........that's it I'm outta here!!!" Selphie shouts furiously, proceeding to get re-dressed and then storming out the door. "NO!!!!!!! Selph please...............DON'T go!!!!!!!!!!!" Kairi wails hysterically, but Selphie is long gone, Riku finally returns and stands beside Sora. "Oh man that was nasty...........Kairi next time you and your girlfriend are doing THAT put up a 'Do not disturb' sign or something........." he suggests, looking slightly pale. "GET OUT!!!! BOTH OF YOU JUST GET OUT!!!!!!!!!!!" Kairi screams at them, before throwing random objects at the door. The guys both agree it's time to leave and head to Sora's house, they can hear Kairi screaming all the way there. Once inside Sora's house the pair both flop down on the sofa, still in shock over what they just witnessed back at Kairi's place, Riku suddenly leaves for the bathroom to rinse his mouth and get that revolting taste out of it, the minty mouthwash Sora has does the trick. He returns, sits beside Sora again and sighs, Sora looks at him with a look of contentment. "What a way to find out the girl you're completely insane about, is not only not into you but into another girl...........I think that sight of them has scarred me for life................." Riku laments, Sora laughs unexpectedly. "Yeah but that was a real eye opener for me............It made me realize that what I felt for her................wasn't real, Kairi was always like that unattainable prize to me, then just when I thought I'd won her heart...............it turns out I never had it at all, not even close.........." Sora adds, sighing. "Yeah I just wish you could've found out in a better way............" Riku tells him, smiling weakly. "Riku............I lied...................about everything....................." Sora suddenly blurts out. "What are you talking about?, what do you mean you............lied?" Riku asks, wondering what Sora meant. "About you...........when I said I didn't have feelings for you, it was a lie............I just didn't know how to deal with them, I was gonna come clean but then she came barging in.............I panicked............." Sora explains, with a look of guilt. "So all this time...............you felt the same way about me that I feel for you?" Riku asks, almost in disbelief. "Yes...........I do, and now that I've got her outta my system............there's nothing to stop me from doing this........." He states, before pulling Riku into a long , seductive kiss one that Riku had only dreamt of until now. "Sora........I............love you, but before this goes any further............I have something I need to get off my chest...........It's about that night you delivered pizza to my place, Tidus was there...........he stayed the night and well we.............but the whole time all I saw and thought about was you......" Riku confesses, Sora grins and Riku is puzzled by his reaction. "It's okay Riku, you know I love you and.......I forgive you too, like you said in the cave 'I'll always forgive you'............Now what do you say we head to my room and........" Sora tells him, Riku smiles and the two of them race off into Sora's room, where they spend the rest of the day and night. Some time later............... "Hey Sora what did you end up doing with that letter that washed up inside a bottle on the shore?" Riku asks. "Oh it's right here, want me to read it to you?" Sora offers. "Nah I'll read it myself, whatever it says I won't let it or anything else ever take you away from me." Riku replies, kissing Sora gently before reading the letter that started it all. The End.

Seriously?? Wow I'm truly amazed, well then I believe I shall write another, perhaps I can do a Final Fantasy IX one that I've been pondering about for some time....... Thank you so much you just totally made my evening. ^.^ EDIT: I'm currently typing up the first chapter of my FFIX fan fiction, and will resume after I finish moving threads to the new more appropriate subs I just made.
