From Eternamente -- Updating this author's note. First off... WOW I didn't expect this one-shot to get this much fanfare lol. Thank you all for the reviews and multiple favourites. Fifteen or so reviews at this time, but they all came at once... I was quite surprised, and gracious to have received them. My new story, Enigma, was met with an equal amount of positive feedback. I'm quite excited to be writing that story, now.

This is now revised as a series of one-shots. All of them encompass one single idea... that I'm a sucker for a happy ending. A common trend will also have Sora and Riku as an already-established couple, but I'll mix it up a bit as well here and there. Sometimes they may start off sad, sometimes they may be silly, and sometimes they may be just adorable, but overall they each will have a happy ending. No evil cliffhangers, either! These are all one-shots hehe. Enjoy!

Story One -- Distressed

It started out as such a perfect day; Riku and I spent the whole day together. First we went out to lunch at that new restaurant a few towns over, and then we saw an early movie. It was a horror movie, and although I hate the gore and violence… the chance to get very close to Riku during the scary parts was always nice. He'd calm me down, and for a brief moment he was my knight in shining armour warding the evil from me. After that we did a bit of shopping at the mall, and then we came home. And now…

…and now here I am tied to my bed with a very angry man hovering over me.

This wasn't supposed to happen…

We were supposed to come inside, we'd put everything away, and then we'd flop on the couch for an afternoon of doing nothing together. Then we'd probably go out to dinner, because honestly, after a day of doing nothing, who really wants to cook? We'd probably go have Italian, and then come back home complaining about how much we ate. And then we'd probably have Tidus and some other friends over and party into the night.

…and here I am, tied to my bed… with a man in a leather mask taking in my scent of fear.

I had come inside with Riku, and he excused himself to use the bathroom. After a quick kiss he was gone to leave me alone to unload all of the things we bought that day. Some new glasses, a new microwave (the old one had just… er… well, blown up is such a strong word. How was I supposed to know you couldn't microwave one of those popcorn things that go over a fireplace?), and some other new things that we really needed (especially the cookies). After a few moments of being lost in my own little world of 'this goes here, this goes there,' I began to wonder where Riku was. I poked around our home here and there, thinking how silly he was being calling me lazy all the time and he's the one dumping this job on me. It's my job to dump things on him! I turned the corner and out of nowhere this masked man attacked me! I struggled, though… but he's too strong. He bound my hands and ripped my clothes off and threw me into my bedroom.

…and now here I am, tied to my bed… and the man has a belt in his hands.

"I hope you enjoy pain, little boy," the man sneered as he slapped together the belt. I could feel my eyes growing wide… why did this have to happen to me? Poor naïve little Sora gets in trouble again… I could just imagine the news being passed around town. Innocent little Sora… raped in his own bedroom.

"I.. Riku…" I tried to stifle the tears, but I couldn't help it! Who knows where Riku was. Was he hurt? Was he in pain? Did I remember to put the cookies away?

"Riku's not here," the man grinned as he leaned down and licked a trail from my stomach to my chest, taking pleasure in tasting the very essence of my being. "I'm going to take you, little boy, and make you mine forever." I tried my hardest not to give him my satisfaction, but I can't help myself sometimes. It's so frightening being in this situation, but if you give them what they want they might not hurt you…

"Ri… Ri…" my mind began to wander elsewhere. And especially… towards the bathroom.

"Enjoying your last moments of pleasure, boy?" the man cackled as he nipped along my inner thighs. His hands were ravenous upon my legs and rear...

"Kumquat," I stuttered out.

"What?"

"Kumquat!" I shouted, trying to wriggle free from the handcuffs. "Kumquat, kumquat, kumquat!!!"

Within a moment the man had tore off his mask to reveal a beautiful head of flowing silver hair. The man's brilliant aquamarine eyes narrowed in annoyance towards my own sapphire eyes. "Dammit, Sora… why the safe word? What's wrong?"

"I have to go pee," I mumbled sheepishly.

Riku sighed and undid the restraints bounding my hands and feet to the bedposts and rubbed his forehead vigorously as I scampered off to the bathroom. Riku can be quite surprising, quite spontaneous, and incredibly sexy, but he really needs to start considering my needs before he springs up something like that. I mean… he JUST let me have two large sodas. I can't hold that in!

Reviews are always more than welcome... they help me write better in the long run, and give me the motivation to continue. It's one thing to favourite a story; it's another to tell me just why you're doing so. Thanks!
