A/N: Another one shot! Exactly five hundred words! (Excluding A/N)

So, I usually base a one shot on a certain theme, but this one has multiple.

Inspired mainly by insecurity and the discomfort of moving forward.

He didn't know who she was, but she was beautiful. Her auburn hair fell to her should. The wind whipped her hair and he caught a scent of coconut. Her handbag bopped against the side of her arm, her walk was as graceful as an evening waltz. Her azure eyes swept calmly over her surroundings. Everything she did was graceful; he couldn't continue to fathom her beauty and elegance. Alas, he didn't stand a chance. He was a lower class kid; she was an upper class girl. She was so popular, and he wasn't. All he could do was fantasize about the one day that he would maybe just ask her out, that one glorious day. The day he achieved that would be wonderful.

"Hey Sora, snap out of it man, you've been spacing out for ages!" A hand collided with the brunette's head. Sora's blue orbs watered slightly at the sudden impact. The tanned boy turned his head towards the person who'd told him to snap out of it. Long, luscious silver hair belonged to the kid, and turquoise eyes looked into his ocean eyes. The silver haired kid held his hand out to Sora. Sora took it and let the silver hair boy help him up. Sora dusted himself as he looked around the beach for the girl. She had gone; he hung his head in disappointment.

"Riku, do you believe in destiny?" Sora queried to his silver haired friend.

Riku turned towards Sora with a small smile. "Maybe I do, but if I were you, I wouldn't hang on to a superstition."

"What about the legend of Paopu Fruit?" Sora egged on.

"Well, if it actually happens then yeah." Riku glanced off into the distance. The smell of salt filled his nose as the breeze whipped the sand on the ground. Riku covered his eyes as the wind blew sand up into his face. Riku pondered Sora's words, he was a curious boy, so he thought he might set his curiosity straight.

"Sora, you want to know something?"

"What?"

"Have you ever thought, of taking the next step towards reaching your goals?" Riku crossed his arms as he looked at the ocean.

"Well… I kind of… sort of…" Sora trailed off as he put his hands behind the back of his head.

"Sora, I'm telling you know, that you should take a gamble and try." Riku turned again to look at Sora this time. "Don't just think it, do it. You never know how it might turn out. You can't just stand around and think about it. Thinking about it won't get anything done, but doing something towards it will. So, take a risk Sora. Isn't that what your brother did years ago? Look where he is now!"

Sora looked down and twiddled his thumbs. "Riku… I don't think I can do it."

"Do what? What can't you do that makes you not move forward?"

"…"

"Look Sora, just go and take a shot. Believe in yourself."

A/N: I forgot to mention that this will be a series of three one shots, so basically a three shot. =P

So the moral of this story is... To take a risk, try something new, deny your insecurities and get out of your comfort zone.

I tried it, and it got me a girlfriend! =P

Let's see how Sora goes eh? Part two coming soon...

R&R!
