Chapter One: Opening Up

Kori lent on her seat, balancing on her knees. Richard came up and leant against her, while she wrapped her arms around his muscular (topless) torso. The bus juddered down the road as they stayed like this, and anyone who didn't know them would think were an item.

WRONG.

They knew each other well, and were the best of friends, but they were not a couple. Richard was supposedly like this with everyone, all touchy-feely, but Kori knew better. She may go to a different high school to him, but she knew him better than that. He was all over her, yet denied feeling more than friendly feelings toward her. That part of him Kori couldn't read.

'You two should go out,' came Terra's voice. Kori merely rolled her eyes.

'You always say that, Tez. It's not gonna happen.'

She had, of course, told her this more than once. Probably more than one hundred times, but Terra still insisted that they would make a thrilling couple, as she put it.

Terra shrugged her shoulders, and returned to her Evanescence on her iPod. Richard pulled Kori's grip form around him, and grabbed for his bag.

Kori did the same, swinging hers over her shoulder. The stood, like the rest on the bus, blocking the isle down the middle of the seats either side. As the bus slowed to a halt, the passengers of the great hog stumbled, giggled, and jumped off it.

When Kori stepped off, Richard was waiting for her. The red head jogged over to him and he laced his arm round her teeny waist. They walked together, past the village shop, and down towards where they lived. They past the churchyard, not that daunting, unless you were alone at night, and carried on homeward.

Their journey took merely ten minutes, and before they knew it, they had to say goodbye. Richard hugged her before walking in the opposite direction to her. Kori sighed to herself in a dazed manner, and smiled serenely.

'What's up with you?' asked Terra, linking arms with her best friend and walking with her.

'Me? Nothing… just thinking…'

'Daydreaming about Wichawd?' she mocked.

'What? No!' Kori tried to defend herself but Terra gave her that all-seeing eye that knew her darkest secrets before they were told.

Kori gave up, and blushed instead of talking.

'Well, girl, I think you should ask him out.'

'What? No way! He doesn't feel like that for me! Besides, Kitt'll murder me.'

'Your loss.'

Kori ran to the door, changed out of her school clothes, to an expecting Richard. He was with the whole gang, and pulled her out to join them.

'Where're we off?'

'Bubbling Tom.'

Bubbling Tom. That's what it was called; the river near the stables. Supposedly a boy died there named Tom. Drowned. If you look carefully you can see the water bubbling where he used to lie. Nobody knows if the myth is true.

Richard walked behind Kori, his arms wrapped around her shoulders, in a loving way.

Bubbling Tom was about ten minutes away, and when they reached it, Richard and Garfield started swinging across it on a tree branch.

The girls all laughed at them, and Steve and Viktor decided to join in.

That night they stayed there until they all had to go home at about ten.

The gang had enjoyed themselves all night, especially Kori. She wished her and Richard could be more than just friends, but she knew that it was only ever going to be a wish.

Over the next few days Kori and Richard kept hanging out with Kori and the 'gang'. The got along better than ever, and the chemistry between them had grown greatly.

This particular day they were at his house, in his bedroom when his parents were out. They were sat cuddling on hid bed, holding hands like they normally did. Richard had put on a horror; Underworld: Evolution.

Every now and again he'd plant a kiss on her cheek. After about five times doing this he apologised.

'Sorry,' he said. 'I just find you irresistible.'

Kori knew it was just him playing with her, but again his voice over came the film.

'I was gonna ask you, really… but I thought you'd say no.'

'Ask me what?' Kori's heart beat a million times faster than it was, and adrenaline pumped through her body, making her shake.

'What do you think?'

'Why would I say no to you?'

Richard shrugged and slowly moved closer to her. His lips brushed hers, and Kori's eyes fluttered shut. Richard only left her for a moment, but after his lips were back on hers, making up for all the wasted years without them together.
