The Mistake
Fourteen year old Kairi was a good girl. She always did what her parents said, went to church every Sunday, and even got good grades in school. She was an only child, but still loved her parents, and she had the greatest friends. Her life was perfect; but that all got shattered with one mistake …
"Hello Kairi, come on in," Riku invited his girlfriend into his house.
"Hi Riku," Kairi greeted him with a smile stepping into the house.
Riku couldn't help but smile at how cute she looked, wearing a mini skirt and tube top, and her hair was curled in a very school girlish way, "Did you bring the movie," he asked.
"Yep, Terminator," she held up the DVD case. Riku wasn't the kind of boyfriend that would watch sappy love story's with his girlfriend, but Kairi didn't mind.
"Where's your mom?" Kairi asked.
"She and dad are out to dinner with my sister, that's not a problem is it?" Riku asked when he saw her nervous look.
"Um … no- no it's fine," she replied hoping that she wouldn't regret that.
"Great you go set up the movie, and I'll get the popcorn ready."
"I'll be back!" Arnold Schwarzenegger's thick Austrian accent could be heard through the room. Kairi couldn't help but roll her eyes, how many times had she heard that line. The Terminator was Riku and his friend's favorite movie; they always watched it over and over again, alone with quoting the movie.
Riku then pulled that unbelievably cliché move. He lifted his arms in the air in a stretch then unhesitantly wrapped one arm around her shoulders. Kairi just smiled mischievously; instantly recognizing the oldest movie in the book. She turned to her boyfriend and pressed there lips together. Riku responded, by slipping his tongue into her mouth. She always had the miraculous taste of strawberries, that made him just want to eat her up.
Kairi moaned into Riku's mouth when she felt his hand slide down her figure, she had the sudden urge to do something she knew she would regret later if she did. Riku had the same urge and they both gave in. Riku broke there kiss just long enough to kick his door shut …
"What. Have. I. Done?"
Kairi sat on her bed, curled up in a ball. Completely horrified at what she gave into, she had lost something that could never be found again. How could she have done that, she was a good girl, and good girls don't do what she did. What she did was reserved for marriage, and only marriage. This only meant one thing. She was no longer a good girl. She had lost the one thing that still made her innocent, and the worst part of it was that it wasn't stolen from her.
She gave it away.
I should have stopped it before it got that far. Why didn't I do it, I was so stupid. Kairi shifted to lie down on the bed, tears leaking from her eyes, "Kairi are you all right in there?"
That was her mom, what would she think of me if she found out. Would she understand, would her family be able to look at her the same way? Would she be able to look at herself the same way.
"I'm fine … just need to be alone for a while."
The next day at school Kairi did everything in her power to avoid Riku. It wasn't too hard, because they only had one class together. And during that class she just strayed from her usual chair next to her boyfriend and sat next with her other friend Sora. He kept trying to catch her in the hallway but anytime he got close she just turned her heels and went the other direction.
"Are you guys having a fight?" Sora asked after a while.
Sora was her best friend that she had known since they were in diapers. He was like a brother to her, always a listening ear, and there to cry to in your time of need. The friend that can get away with telling you the hard truth, because you know that they're only doing it because they care; but there is no way she could tell him this.
"Maybe a little one," she replied with a smile.
"Do you want to talk about?" he asked.
Just like Sora, he always knew when I was upset, but he could never know about this, "Thanks Sora, but I'm ok."
The greatest thing about having Sora as a friend was that he didn't make you talk if you didn't want to. He just smiled at her, "Ok, but if you want to talk about it, I'm right here."
"I know that Sora, thanks."
Sora left to go to his biology class, and Kairi went to her locker to get her history books. Just as she was grabbing them, someone called her name, "Kairi!"
Oh no, why wouldn't he just leave her alone. She quickly slammed the locker shut and took off in the other direction. Even though it was the long way to he next class, just as long as she avoided Riku, "Kairi! Kairi please just stop and talk to me, what did I do to make you so upset?"
The girl slowed down to a stop, and for the first time that day, she turned to look at her boyfriend. He looked upset and dejected, which made her feel all the more worse. She knew that she couldn't blame him for what happened. It wasn't necessarily his fault, he didn't rape her, and she agreed to do it just by letting it happen.
When Riku finally caught up to her, the final period bell rang. But instead of the two of them rushing off to class, Riku gently gabbed her by the arm and pulled her into an empty hallway, "Is this about what happened the other night?"
Kairi slowly nodded her head without looking at him. She heard him sigh in frustration, "Kairi there's nothing wrong with what we did, seriously get with this century everyone does it."
"But I know that it's not right, it's supposed to be done after marriage," tears started to fall from Kairi's blue eyes.
Riku brushed his hand over the girls cheek, which Kairi turned her head away from it, "It's not the end of the world Kairi, and I don't regret doing it."
Kairi locked eyes with him, "Well, I do."
"Well then let's just pretend that it never happened," Riku suggested.
"It doesn't work like that Riku!" Kairi cried suddenly becoming angry at him for the way he was just brushing it off. "That's not going to get my virginity back," she added in a softer voice.
The silvered haired boy brushed Kairi's tears away and kissed the top of her forehead, "Maybe not, but no one else has to know that you lost it. Just pretend that it didn't happen and no one will know."
"Can it really be that easy Riku?" Kairi asked.
Don't worry by next week, you'll have completely forgotten about it."

So here's chapter one, normally I hate AU's and especially Highschool stories though I got this idea too long ago and it really isnt a typical Highschool Drama story. This story's going to take many unexpected turns so it may not be worth it to guess, because you'll most likely be wrong, though going by the title of the story I'm sure you all know whats going to happen to Kairi. Special thanks to everyone who's been encouraging to finally getting this story out there.
