'thinking'
"talking"
flash back
Song
Credit to: Sorry Charlie for encouraging me to right my own series of one-shots, and Corrine Bailey Rae; because i got the idea for this story while listening to the song trouble sleeping.
Riku couldn't help but smile, even if it was a small one. Everyone else were out on a mission for Merlin and cid, but that was not on his mind. He was laying on a hammock in the middle of the night, rocking slightly. he couldn't sleep anyway. He met the most wonderful girl in all the worlds he's ever been to.
It's late and I'm feeling so tired
Having trouble sleeping
This constant compromise
Between thinking and breathing
She was kind to all people and animals unless they pissed her off that is. He could drown in her deep blue eyes for all eternity if he had that chance. 'what am i thinking. she's just kairi's friend. she means nothing to me.' but he couldn't help but think about her.
it all started when they headed back home after the fight with xemnas:
Sora and kairi and riku headed straight to the beach after settling in. they've been gone from the island for so long that it took awhile for them to get used to everything. "Hey you three over there! come over here ya!" they heard wakka yell. they ran over to him and the other's and gasped. "It's you! what happened to you!" kairi cried out. the girl smiled and hugged kairi, laughing. "well, the family decided to move back to the island" sora cleared his throat to gain some attention. "kairi, who is this?" he asked. riku nodding to the question.
kairi and the others started at the two incredulously. "you two aren't serious are you?" when all she got was silence kairi sighed. "you dumb boys! this is kagome! remember when we first started hanging out? the girl who was almost always sick so she had to move here?" Then it hit them like a ton of bricks. THAT was kagome? kagome higurashi, the sick girl and to everyone on the island, except kagome, riku's first crush.
Could it be I'm suffering
Because I'll never give in
Won't say that I'm falling in love
Tell me I don't see myself
Couldn't I blame something else
Don't say I'm falling in love
Even though he hated to admit it. kagome grew to be very pretty. She used to have short hair like kairi but now it reached to her lower back. She was shorter than sora when they met her. her once slightly (but not sickly) pale skin was now slightly tanned. her semi-dull blue eyes were full of life and shinned brightly in the sun like a jewel, and call it cliched but she looked like angel. ever since then she would join them on missions and help around Merlin's.
Some kind of therapy
Is all I need
Please believe me
Some instant remedy
That can cure me completely
Everyone liked her. Even cloud started to warm up to her a little much to tifa's annoyance. Yes, she was something else. The longer they were together the more he couldn't help but think about her. She was in his thoughts and dreams contently. he fought with his conscious almost every single day and it was irritating. He refused to acknowledge his suppressed feelings for her. No matter what he would try to fight the battle he was losing with his emotions. until HE showed up.
everyone was working hard on the new gummi ship when they heard a loud squeal. they raced up the stairs to see some guy swinging kagome around, laughing. "who do you think that is?" sora whispered to yufie who shrugged. riku was shaking with furry. he watched as the two spun around and around. Finally when they stopped kagome turned to see everyone staring at her. "hey guys! i would like you to meet sesshomaru! he is one of my friends from school when i moved away."
Could it be I'm suffering
Because I'll never give in
Won't say that I'm falling in love
Tell me I don't see myself
Couldn't I blame something else
'I hated him.' riku thought smirking. everyday those two where together. and everyday riku got angrier. the way he hugged her, or kissed her on the cheek whenever he left to do the same when he returned. it seems everyone, other than kagome and him himself, knew he had feelings for kagome. finally after many days of watching riku suffering, sora and the others coached him into asking kagome out.
It worked in many ways.
Riku walked up to kagome, who was typing away at cid's computer. "um kagome...would you like to go with me to the fireworks festival tomorrow?" kagome smiled brightly up at him and nodded. "i would love to!" and they stood there smiling like idiots.
Don't say I'm falling in love
That was the first time he seen her smile directly at him. She used to smile like that all the time. even when in the hospital. sesshomaru also finally talked to him.
"i don't know what you think of me nor do i really care. if you hurt my imouto in anyway i will kill you. understand?"
Did he love kagome higurashi? did he want to spend the rest of his life and possibly more with her.
It wasn't until the festival that he came up with the answer to his hearts questions.
everyone was at the festival. adorned kimonos the girls ran around picking up food and playing games, and dragging the reluctant guys around. finally it was time to for the fireworks. as soon as they went off the crowd ooh'd and awed but riku was watching kagome. her eyes were lit up in sheer delight, her mouth was slightly agape, her lips pulled back into a small smile.
Yes. he wanted kagome higurashi more than he wanted anything in his life. he would be damned if anyone had her first.
Then he finally learned something.
kagome was in love with him. the whole time he'd been fighting himself about whether or not he liked her she already knew that she liked him. Even more so everyone
Cause I've been there before
It's not enough
So nobody say it
Don't even say it
I got my eyes shut
"Riku, will you share a Papou fruit with me?"
When he heard her say that all doubts where erased from his mind, all doubts gone. That was also when he and kagome shared their first kiss.
Whoa, no
Whoa, no, no, no
Then a few years later. He decided to ask her for her hand in marriage. She immediately said yes, tears running down her flushed cheeks. Their reception was held on the beach of their home island. everyone was there to wish them well. Kagome looked so radiant in her white dress. Almost the way she looked when she first arrived. Angelic.
Now, three years later they laid together in a hammock on the little island away from destiny island where riku and sora fought for the last time before everything started. Riku hugged her closer to him making sure not to crush her. kagome giggled, "reminiscing?" Riku chuckled "No. more like elaborating,"
kagome looked up at him curiously. "don't look at me like that. I was just remembering how everything just led up to this. kagome frowned. "do you have any regrets?" riku was silent for a minute. "yeah i do." kagome shifted slightly as if to get up. "i regret that i took so long to realize my feeling for you." there was another pause of silence before kagome startes singging softly.
"Could it be I'm suffering because I'll never give in, won't say that I'm falling in love" riku smiled and rubbed her growing belly. He really loved kagome, and nothing would making him think otherwise.
Tell me I don't see myself
Couldn't I blame something else
Don't say I'm falling in love
'nothing'
Don't say that I'm falling in love
Don't say that I'm falling in love
Don't say that I'm falling in love
Don't say that I'm falling in love
WELP! That was my first installment. get those request in! hope you liked it Charlie.
