Chapter 1:The Legendary Power of the Papou Fruit
Sora had just layed down in his usual spot on the beach where he liked to nap in the heat of the sun.The brunette had just closed his deep blue eyes when he heard his best friend,Riku,calling for him.
"Hey,Sora!Are you asleep?"the taller,silver haired boy asked,as he sat down next to his friend.Riku eyed the smaller boy,smiling,but quickly averted his gaze when he saw Sora sit up and open his eyes.'Damn,he's cute,'Riku thought to himself.
"What's up,Riku,"Sora asked,yawning,"I had just layed down when you called,"he finished,rubbing his eyes.Riku couldn't help smirking and chuckling inwardly,thinking about how he liked to watch Sora sleep.Shaking it off,he remembered why he had come to find the brunette.
"Selphie,Tidus,Wakka and Kairi want to know if you wanna hang out in the secret place,"Riku said,toussleing Sora's hair.The smaller boy let out a faint growl and swatted Riku's hand away,causing the older boy to laugh out loud at his younger friend.Although Sora was a year younger than Riku,he cared desperately about the smaller boy,but couldn't help teasing him.'He's truly adorable,'Riku thought to himself,as he stood up and offered Sora a hand.Taking his hand,Sora stood up.'His hands are so warm,and gentle,for him being so strong,'Sora thought,blushing lightly.
On the way to their secret place,both boys kept an eye on the other,trying not to be caught.When they got there,everyone was awaiting them with smiles.Tidus,Wakka and Selphie were all the same age as Sora,and Kairi was the same age as Riku.They greeted each other and the two went to sit by Kairi.
"I found this lazy bum trying to nap on the beach,"Riku told the group,earning a giggle from the girls,and a small laugh from the guys.Sora blushed,nudging Riku.For a while,everyone just talked about this and that,and all the things that teenagers talk about.
"Who wants to play Truth or Dare?"Wakka finally asked,standing up after growing bored with the gossip.Everyone agreed that playing a game would be a good way to spice things up.Wakka tried to decide who to pick first.Scratching his orange hair,he nodded to himself.
"My first victim will be...hmm...Riku,"he said,pointing a finger at the silver haired boy,who stood up,and nodded.
"Alright,dare,Wakka,"he said,not even waiting for the boy to ask.Wakka smirked as he made his dare.
"I dare you to put on Kairi's makeup.Lipstick,blush and eyeshadow,Riku,"he was barely able to say,from laughing.Everyone just looked at Riku,wondering if he would do it.Riku cringed,but nodded again.He went over and asked Kairi for her makeup bag.Grinning,the red haired girl handed it over.In less than ten minutes,Riku was wearing a nice shade of light pink lipstick,some light pink blush and some baby blue eyeshadow that complimented his aqaumarine eyes.He could feel a natural blush overpower the makeup when he saw Sora giggling at him.'He looks so precious wearing makeup,'Sora thought,smirking.Riku grinned to himself.It was his turn now.
"It's my turn now,"he said,smirking,"And I choose Sora,"he finished,smiling curtly as Sora,who immediately stopped his giggling fit and stood up.
"Truth or Dare,Sora,"Riku asked in a taunting voice.Sora didn't want to look like a dork,so he stepped forward and replied.
"Dare,of course,"he said,as a grin crossed Riku's face.'Good boy,Sora.Now you're gunna be mine,'Riku thought to himself,but shook his head.He just wanted to get Sora back for laughing at him,not make him his.Right?
"I dare you to kiss me full on the lips,while I'm wearing Kairi's makeup,"he told the smaller boy,whose face seemed to somehow manage to go both white as a ghost and then as red as his shorts in less than a second.Shyly,the smaller boy approached Riku,the whole gang watching intently,surprised by the dare.
Taking a deep breath,Sora leaned up and kissed Riku full on the lips.Enjoying the softness of Sora's lips,Riku tried to deepen the kiss without thinking,only to have Sora pull away.Now,both boys had smeared lipstick spread across their mouths.They stared at each other for a moment,blushing.'Why did that feel so good?'they both thought to themselves.Sora turned around quickly,to regain his composure,and Riku smiled to himself.
"Okay,now I'll pick someone,"Sora said,once he had wiped the lipstick from his mouth,and his cheeks had regained their normal color,"Kairi,truth or dare?"he asked,looking at the red haired girl.Kairi sighed,moving a few strands of hair from her face.
"Truth,Sora,"she replied,not even getting up.Sora thought hard about the question he was going to ask her.Finally choosing his question,he smirked.
"Kairi is it true that you have 'fantasies' about one of the four boys in this room?"he asked her,smirking,"You don't have to give a name,just a yes or no,"he added quickly,seeing her blush as red as her hair.Instead of answering,she just nodded.Sitting there for a moment,she tried to regain herself as she stood up,and looked around the room.
"I choose Selphie,"she said,pointing the the brunette girl,who pointed to herself as if asking,'me'?Kairi nodded and Selphie made a thumbs up sign,"Truth or Dare,Selphie,"she asked.
"Truth,"Selphie said,taking a deep breath,waiting for the question.
"Why do girls always pick truth?"Wakka asked,shaking his head,earning him a hard whack in the back of the head from Selphie.Everyone giggled,as Kairi asked her question.
"Is it true that you want to share a papou fruit with Tidus?"she asked.Both Tidus and Selphie blushed,and she nodded.
"Yes,I do,"she said,in an almost whisper.The blonde boy blushed deeper,and smiled.He put his hand on her shoulder to let her know he felt the same.Sora looked questioningly at Kairi.
"What will sharing a papou fruit with Tidus do?"he asked,innocently,raising an eyebrow.Selphie sighed and walked over to Sora to explain.
"If two people who truly care about each other share a papou fruit,their destinies become intertwined forever and nothing can ever tear them apart,"she said,in a dreamy voice,"Isn't it romantic?"she asked,but Sora had stopped listening after she had told the good part,and was thinking to himself.'I wonder if Riku would share a papou with me if I asked him.But maybe it doesn't work if you're two guys.I still wanna try it,but how do I know if he likes me?I can't just walk up to him and say,'hey,riku,do you love me and want to share a papou fruit with me?'.He'd either laugh at me,or never talk to me again,'Sora thought to himself.He was going to find out what Riku thought of him,but it would be easier said than done.
"Sora!" a voice brought him back from his thoughts,"Sora,the game's over,"it was Riku,who was waving a hand in front of Sora's face.Sora raised an eyebrow.
"Already?"he asked.Riku shook his head,and chuckled.He placed a hand on Sora's shoulder.
"You've been spacing out for almost half an hour,dude,"the silver haired boy replied,"Anyway,we're all heading home now,'cause it's getting late,"he finished as Kairi approached them.
"Ready,guys?"she asked.Riku and Sora nodded.Once it was only the three of them,the both looked at Sora with concern.
"So what's wrong,Sora?"Kairi asked,leaning in so close to Sora's face that he almost fell backwards.He looked at them,trying to act innocent.
"Nothing's wrong,"he said,blushing,remembering his thoughts back at the secret place,as Riku smacked him on the back of his head.
"I'm your best friend,and I've known you forever.We couldn't even get your attention the whole time.What's going on on,Sora?"Riku asked,giving him a firm look,but his eyes remained gentle and understanding.Sora blushed again,seeing how Riku was worried about him.
"I..I need to talk to Kairi alone,so go on ahead,and we'll catch up,"Sora said quickly,before grabbing Kairi by the wrist and dragging her off.Riku sighed as he decided to walk to the beach instead of going home.As he sat on the beach watching the sunset,he thought about Sora and wondered what he wanted to talk to Kairi alone about.'He's probably sharing a papou fruit with her,while I sit here,alone,'Riku thought sadly,'Either sharing one with her,or asking her to share one with him.I wish he'd asked me to share a papou with him.'Riku hugged his knees to his chest,as he continued to sit there alone.
Meanwhile,Sora had dragged Kairi over to the huge papou tree.Kairi blushed,thinking Sora was going to ask her to share a fruit with him.
"That was close,"he said,sighing.He turned to Kairi,who was still blushing,"Umm,Kairi,what's wrong?"he asked,looking at her with a raised eyebrow.
"Of course I'll share a fruit with you,Sora!"she said,smiling,as Sora looked at her questioningly.When he didn't respond,she looked up at him curiously.Sighing,he started to explain.
"Kairi,I'm sorry.I don't want to share a papou fruit with you.I want to share one with someone else,but I don't know how to tell if he likes me or not.I've been thinking of a way to ask him,but I'm afraid he'll hate me if I do,"he explained,hoping Kairi wasn't too disappointed.
"Well if it's Riku,I'd say go for it,because it's obvious he's into you,"she replied.Sora blushed.How did she know it was Riku?He tried his best to hide that fact.
"I..it's not Riku,"he replied hastily,"But for the record,how do you know that Riku's into me?"he asked,looking up at her hopefully.She sighed,he really was innocent.
"Wasn't it obvious the way he asked you to kiss him for your dare?"she asked.Suddenly,Sora felt sick.How could he not have noticed before?Kissing her cheek,he turned and ran towards his house.
"Thank's Kairi,you've really helped me tonight.Well,I'll see you tomorrow,okay?"he yelled to her.She waved bye to him,but as he disappeared from her sight,she sat down under the tree,and cried.She had just helped Riku get the man that she loved.
Well that's the end of the first chapter...umm yeah,sorry it's a short chapter,but in the next one,things are most likely going to get a bit more heated between Riku and Sora...the lemon may not be for another few chapters,though,to build up some tension and what not...well I hope you enjoyed..please review. .
