So here is my second SoKai fanfiction! I hope you enjoy, and please review!
Stargazing
I had never really been asked out before: it just wasn't one of those things that happened to me. That is, until the day, a handsome guy from another school came over to me outside school, and asked me out. In front of everyone.
I knew who he was. He was Riku, from destiny island's all boys' college. He was known throughout my school, the sister school to his: destiny islands all girls academy. He had unusual silver blond hair and piercing blue eyes, and it was exactly these features that made him so popular. I was struck dumb. I had barely talked to him before, and all of a sudden he was asking me out? Something was up.
I blushed a flattering red, and Riku, ever the nice guy, just smiled at me. I then realized he was waiting for an answer. Crap. I blurted out an awkward "um….yes?"
He smiled properly this time and breathed out a sigh. I then realised that he had actually been nervous. Wow.
I still couldn't believe this. I did know Riku quite well, as we lived near each other and had friends in common but…..
He put his hand out and grabbed my hand, and began to lead me away. My brain didn't kick in for a few seconds so there was a great moment where he was half dragging me. Lovely.
We walked down to the ice cream shop hand in hand, and began to chat. I liked Riku, but I didn't know what I was getting myself in for then.
That was the beginning of our relationship, and things were only going to get much more complicated form here sadly.
I had always known that relationships were difficult, but in my case, it was Riku's best friend Sora that was the difficulty.
The first time I met him, it was about a week after Riku and I started going out. By then I heard a lot about Sora from Riku, and I couldn't wait to meet him. So it was a real let down when he hated me after our first meeting- at least that was what it seemed like.
The day beforehand, Riku had asked me to come and meet his best friend Sora. I went along early, as I couldn't wait to meet him, he sounded like a great guy- I had hoped I would get along with him. Unfortunately my wishes were unheard.
It seemed like I was really early by the time I got to the beach, as Riku wasn't there, and I didn't know what time Sora was coming at.
So, I sat down on the sand and lay back, staring at the view in front of me.
"You comfy there?" I heard a friendly voice ask nearby. I nearly jumped out of my skin, I was so surprised. I looked around and saw who it was: a tall guy, with spiky brown hair, who was setting up a telescope.
"Hell yeah!" I replied, slightly embarrassed "sand beats the sofa any day!"
I saw him smile at that.
"So" I asked, "what are you doing here?"
"What does it look like?" he asked as he fixed another piece to his telescope, "Im stargazing"
I the realised how dumb my question had been.
"I was just testing you," I answered. "Obviously, I knew you were stargazing, duh"
He turned towards me then and grinned at me. Wow was all I could think. His smile was massive. And he was really good looking. "Wanna see something cool?" he asked me, and I couldn't not say yes, not with that smile.
He beckoned me over to his telescope, where he fiddled with it for a few seconds, peeked through the lens, and then gestured for me to look through. I peeked through and then gasped. What I saw was amazing…. I couldn't describe it in words.
"Pretty cool, huh?" he said top me smiling. I smiled back, replying, " more than pretty cool!" as he began to tell me about other stars, and how to see them, we were both startled when we heard a familiar vice say "well, looks like you two are getting along well already!"
We both turned and saw it was Riku, smiling slightly at the two of us.
"Oh hey Riku!"
"What?"
Sora and I said simultainusly. I glanced over at Sora; he had confusion written all over his face.
It was then that Riku said, "Sora, this is Kairi, Kairi this is Sora."
Sora turned to stare at me. I stuck out my hand and said to him "hi! Im Kairi, Im Riku's…. Um... girlfriend?"
At that Riku laughed.
"Come on Kairi, we've been going out over a week now! You've got to get used to it!"
Sora, who had been silent for the last minute, turned to Riku and said "this… is the girl you've been talking about? This is your new girlfriend? Cant I go anywhere without meeting one of your numerous girlfriend, past and present?" he spat at Riku.
It was then that Riku said to Sora, "yeah, Kairi and I …. We're dating."
"WHAT!" Sora blurted out, disbelief on his features. "You're kidding me?"
"Is this true?" he rounded on me.
"Um, yes?" I said not sure at all what was going on at all. It seemed like Sora was angry at Riku for having numerous girlfriends, so many that he can't get away from…. But I hoped that wasn't true.
Sora's whole demeanour changed then. He was very cold, and icily polite to me for the rest of the evening, and seemed constantly pissed off at Riku. I eventually made up some random excuse so I could leave early.
And when I turned back, looking down from a distance at the two, Riku seemed to be pleased with himself, a small smile rounding his lips, and Sora, extremely annoyed with Riku about something.
At the time, I knew nothing of what was going on, and I wouldn't, not for a long time.
