Chapter 1 - A Smile is a thousand 'I Love You's'

I watched as my best friend tired to build a sandcastle. Sora and I had been friends for so long; but I still had some secrets he could never know. As what felt like his thousandth attempt at a sandcastle, he gave up and came and sat down beside me. The sand on Destiny Islands was a beautiful golden colour. It was, however, crap for sandcastle building. As Sora gazed out into the ocean, I wondered what he was thinking.

"You know what," Sora asked lazily. I gave him an inquiring look.

"That cloud looks like a turkey." I looked up. He was right; the cloud did look like a turkey. But he had been staring at it for five whole minutes - a sure sign that he was bored.

"You wanna do something?" I asked him.

"Yeh alright." Sora tried to act like he didn't care, but I'd known him long enough to see right through that.

"You choose." Sora thought for a few minutes. He always weighed out every option before making a decision. Unlike me. I just tended to throw all caution to the wind and just go with whatever my heart told me to.

"Blitzball." Sora revealed his decision with a mix of certainty and anticipation. "O.K... Last one to the court's a rotten PaoPu Fruit!" Sora was always the competitive one; always trying to be the best. But I knew that he didn't have to try - he couldn't possibly be any better if he tried. Sora can light up a room just by being in it. Whenever anyone is near him, they feel instantly uplifted by his natural cheeriness. As I raced Sora to the Blitzball Court; I could not help but admire my friend. He was surprisingly attractive for a boy of his age. His golden hair shone in the sunlight, and fluttered behind him. I knew that Kairi had a particularly soft spot for Sora. I knew that before long she might well ask Sora to be her boyfriend. Sora would say yes. Not necessarily out of affection but of politeness. Sora never said no to people. He found it easier to let people walk all over him. I couldn't bear to watch him being screwed over all the time; the things people said about him tore my soul apart. I've lost count of the amount of people I'd decked for insulting Sora. He deserved so much better.

We went back to Sora's house after the Blitzball game. I had let Sora win again. The victorious smile on his face was a prize enough; the glory of winning was not required.

"Hey boys!" Sora's mum was always cheerful. As well she should be - she lived on a tropical island, did what she had always wanted to do (teaching), and had the best son in all the worlds. "If you want any snacks there are pretzels in the cupboard." I heard a small squeal, which I knew came from Sora, as he sprinted towards the cupboard. Sora's mum laughed and went into the lounge. We went upstairs (Sora carrying the pretzels and grinning broadly), to Sora's room. We first played on the Ps2; as usual Sora thrashing me completely. His gaming skills were unmatched. I always loved watching him play. He was so determined, yet intelligent in his tactics. Eventually we got bored of games and just talked. I loved our talks. We just talked about everything and anything. Well... almost everything. As Sora munched on his pretzels; I watched him. It was surprising how much he could eat without putting on any weight. It was also surprising how someone so beautiful could eat so un-beautifully. I quietly laughed to myself.

"What?" Said Sora; halfway through a mouthful of pretzels.

"Nothing," I said. And I smiled at him.
