OMG! YES, another Sora and Kairi story, jeez it's all I write about anyways...haha, so, don't worry I'll still update my toher stories, it's not like I'll abandond my sequel Lines we owe, I'm planning on finishing that with about maybe 18-20 chapters at least. I still have a lot of work to do with that, and then there's also -A moment of love... yeah, I enjoy that one too but I just couldn't help but start a new one because the idea has been in my head for so long.
Fear of insanity.
"I hate him, he's retarted...." I rattled sitting in my bathtub when it wasn't even filled and I was in my clothes, it's just a place I go to, when I want to be alone, well not exactly...because a spirit is with me. A spirit who just happened to be my best friend.
"Come on, stop it."
"Like he's the boss of me!" I snarl throwing a piece of soap into the air.
"He is the boss of you. He kind of hired you." My best friend says.
"Well, whatever, he's a jackass." I mumble and chew on my lip. "Hey, tell me your story again..." I whisper to her bored as hell.
She nodded and sighed, "Just let me breathe." She laughed.
"You don't breathe, you're dead, now go on with it!" I protest against her.
"Fine, I was walking down the street," She started.
I didn't really want to hear that...I knew the whole entire story of her death already, but I just wanted to shut up and listen to something for a while.
She met a boy, she fell in love, and he killed her. That's that. All the other stuff she says is just detail into it. But fact is fact, jeez. Get on with it already! It's been years, and I've barely thought about why I can see the dead. It's not that it freaks me out or anything, but it's just that I deal with it by looking at it in a positive sides. As in whenever I'm bored I listen to them, or if I'm really bored and want to take my mind off of things then I would dare to walk around in the city. Believe me, plenty of dead people standing there looking at me because they know I can see them.
So I usually talk to them since they're very lonely.
"Hey Kairi. So, how about we go out in the city?" My ghost friend asked. I shook my head, "I need to finish packing my stuff, we're moving this afternoon." I explain to her and she frowned just a little.
"Okay then." She sighed her ghostly self vanishing.
How sad that I will move away to Destiny hills into a house that has been abandond for ages. First I was thinking 'great! Finally be alone' but now after I was talking to my father I remembered, 'abandond place? I'm sure to be never alone in that house', I sigh slowly and skip into my room finishing my last box. When I taped it shut I picked it up and dragged the box over to my dad's car all the way downstairs.
"It's the last one!" I exclaim at him.
"Are you sure? You never will get anything back if you get in this car and forget something in that place." He called back to me loudly in a warning tone.
I sprung up, how could I forget about my best friend?! I run back in the empty house I would never see again and I run into my room that has once been...When I closed the door behind me I saw her standing at my window.
"Hey, is it possible for you to come with me?"
She shook her head sadly, " No, I can't. I can only go to places I've been before in my life. Everything else has a barrier."
I lit up a little, "Wait, so that still means that we can meet sometimes, right?"
She nods and fails to hug me as she just fades and turns back up, "Goodbye Kairi, you're a good friend."
"You too...see you later." I say and hop out of the room, the hall, the house. I look at it one more time and turn away where I could've sworn I saw my best friend standing through the window and smile.
I get in the old truck and my dad, Leon, drives on to the free way very soon. He laughs softly, "Let's just say that this new place is a new start. It's a nice place." He says.
To think, I have never seen the house before but like that matters anyways because I soon will.
"It's pretty late, dad. I'll go to sleep, wake me later,okay?"
"Sure." My father said with wide eyes telling me that he had the most caffeine I have ever seen a living person take. And I literally mean that because I've seen dead coffe addicts before.
I take my seat belt off and travel idly towards the back of the car to sleep in the seats.
"Well, I want to move here so she can have a better life in college. She deserves the best!" My father said proudly on the phone. I listen from behind the door sneakily.
I don't know why I'm a small child in that dream, because I know that I'm dreaming of just a couple weeks ago when my dad called my aunt to tell her the news.
I see myself talking to air and listen staring at things I would've believed were gone, back when I still had a completely pink room and ponies were the coolest thing on earth. I talk to other children my age and we play as if they were actually here with me, alive. I was too young to see that they were no longer living.
When I was twirling around I saw that they had dissapeared and I fell back to the floor sadly.
"Wake up!" I hear my dad call when I noticed the car stopping in front of a woody house. It was thrashing rain and thunder shocked above my head. This house was in the middle of a forest, in the middle of no where. Well, there's always a somewhere but this was just a sad little part of the word 'where' in the sentence. I get out and stand in the rain atching my eyes blur and my red head getting wet like a dog. I hug myself and jog over to my dad who was fidgeting with the keys on the door. When he opened it he revealed a large entrance room.
"How much did you pay for this house anyways?"
"Oh, not a lot of people- okay, no one wanted this place anyways and the owner was on the side of your mothers cousin who decided to pass it on the family."
I glanced around in wonder. It was pretty big and all, I might just get lost. "I am going to pick my room." I say quickly and head upstairs to find where I would stay for a while and of course, investigate for any dead people around. It was pretty quiet except for some bird skeletons chirping on a twig outside of a window.
Yep, dead skelteon birds outside the wondow? Good sign of any dead people in this house. Definaletly.
"Okay then, come out come out wherever you are! I won't do anything as you can see, I can sense you, so whoever it is, don't be afraid, I will be your company for a long time." I say to the half empty room.
No answer.
"I see you're stubborn, huh?" I snorted, "Fine then, I'll be here when you decide." I say hands behind my head as I walk outside of the room dripping rain all over the wooden floors.
When I walked outside of the house I found my dad getting the kitchen boxes and shoving them into the new kitchen. He fiddled around with it for a long time and asked me to go outside and get the rest of the things. When I headed outside in the rain I saw a boy standing by our car.
"What do you think you are doing?!" I scream at them and see that they jumped up quickly and gasped at the sight of me. They sprung a step back and sighed. He placed a hand on his heart and sighed.
"Um, I was just...I'm your neighbor and I wanted to help you out!" He called back.
When I took a closer look at him I saw him in a nice old style looking vest with shorts. He had spiky brown chocolaty hair that defied about anything I've seen, and I though my dad's friend, Cloud had the most outragous hairstyle...but I guess I was wrong. "Oh, sure!" I call back to him and run towards him. When I cleared the rain from my eyes I looked around myself trying to find him.
No one.
It was a ghost?
No, it couldn't have been, I mean, the dead have a much different presence and appearance than living. And he was living! I saw him breathe!
"Kairi, who are you talking to, hon?" My dad yelled from a window.
"The neighbos boy." I say back to him.
He had a confused silly face on him, "Neighbor? We are the only one here, we don't have any neighbors in the woods, Kairi. It's deserted!"
"But-there was..." I say quietly shaking my head frowning.
What is this new ghost trying to pull with me?!
Public school is so easy. At least there are no uniforms required and you can do about anything without people looking at you weird. If, that is, you're not me.
The new kid in English class.
"Hello, this is our new student, her name is Cary." My teacher announced nicely.
"It's actually Kairi." I correct her quietly and turn red a little.
"Oh, of course, Kairi, let's seat you over there for this week."
"This week?" I ask a little confused.
"We change seats every month. And next week we'll change them again." She says, "So everyone gets to know each other a little better." She smiled at me, "You'll be sitting over there with Hayner, Namine, and Selphie, Riku,"
"Oh, great." I mumble walking over to a shy blond a crazy brunette and a cocky looking boy in the middle of a pile of girls, and then a silver haired dude who looked pissed off. "Hello." I peeped sitting down quickly.
"What's going hot stuff? The boy who'se name was Hayner said to me.
I was right, he was cocky.
"Ignore him, he's a little under the weather." A silver haired boy sad from behind him.
"I'll tell you somewhere better I've been yesterday, under the covers." He said grinning back to the silver haired boy and raising his eyebrows at me.
I ignore him and stare at my hands. How boring. They're so average. They're not different like others I was hoping to see. They were just another group of people who blended in.
When my class was over and it was lunch, lucky me, I wander into the library where surprisingly. No one was in. Not even a teacher or a librarian. I could practicly see the dust collecting on the shelves, layers and layers of disgusting filth.
I sigh and smile slowly after that seeing how I am no alone in this place and happy to be here. Alone.
Not alone.
"What are you doing here." I hear a voice gasp and I turn around to see the same spiky hair I have bfore.
"How are you, or nice to see you again, you mean?" I say coldly.
"No, why do you see me?" He asks slowly approaching me and using his hand to try to touch me, it barely reaches me before he shakes his head. "Who are you?"
"I am a girl who goes to this school." I say sitting down in a chair grabbing a near by magazine.
"Obviously. But really, a name?"
"You didn't even tell me yours when you told me you would help me with these boxes. Not that you could've picked them up or anything." I snort and ignore the ghost like I have done to others several of times.
"But I'm not dead, I'm having a dream."
"You're dead and I wish this were a dream and I would wake up in a normal world." I say flipping a bunch of pages before taking a book.
"Well, I'm sorry." He said sarcasticly.
"You're not sorry."
"I was being sarcastic."
"That was my point." I sigh clapping the book shut so hard I could hear it's echo around the library. "How did you die anyways?"
"I'm telling you, I'm not dead!" He almost shouts.
I get up, really annoyed with him, "If you weren't a ghost, I couldn't do this-" I cut off and slap him in the face.
Oh, oh.
He fell to the floor with a thud and when I tried bending down to help him up I found him behind me.
"That hurt. That wasn't nice." He frowned patting his cheek.
I walk towards him slowly, "You're different." I smile weakly passing a hand through his shoulder.
"No really? My mom says I'm different." He smirks and walks around the library.
"What's your name?" I blurt after him, but he just vanished into thin air.
Wow, he's some kind of different species of ghost, huh?
He felt the impact and his cheek turned red after I slapped him, but I could have my hand go through him with ease.
What is wrong with the picture? I wish I had someone like me to explain me all of these things sometime. But I guess I ahve to teach myself to teach others someday.
"OMG, where were you? I looked all over for you!" Selphie squealed.
"She surfed the internet." Namine sighed very wuietly reffering to Selphie.
"I was talking to someone." I tell her.
"A boy or a girl?!" Selphie squealed.
"A boy." I tell her calmly as she bursted into happiness.
"What's his name?! I kght've dated him before." She screached in happiness.
"I don't know." I furrow my eyebrows, he never told me his name.
"Wellllllll, I bet you'll run into him sometime later and catch his name." She sighed, "So where did you meet? Was it in a romantic place?" She grinned excited, I just had the feeling that she liked romance novels.
"Uhm, the library." I say not hesitating.
She furrowed her eyebrows toegether and looked like a bimbo when she tilted her head, "We have a library?"
"It's the place where you get books." Namine said under her breath.
"No need for wise assing!" Selphie half shouted at Namine who shook her blond locks and stared at the ground while we were roaming in the halls.
I sigh and keep on walking before I part from them and enter my next class.
But really? I just wanted to see him again.
