Me: Hello everyone. I'm back to write my second story. I've noticed that there has been many people who like Black Roses and Calla Lillies, so I thought 'Hey why not write another story?' LOL So here I am writing one. This will possibly be a one-shot. If its loved enough maybe Ill right a few more chapters. And yeah I'm using my Riku as the seme in this pairing.

Riku: Your what? *Gives shocked face.*

Me: Well I do think you are super attractive, but me and other readers have fantasies that must be fulfilled. You and Zexion will be the pairing for this story.

Zexion: Did some one call me?

Riku: No, but guess what Maddy is doing.

Zexion: *sighs* I'm afraid to ask…

Sephiroth: There you are god Zexy I've been looking everywhere for you. *leaves with Zexion*

Me: Its just a story, ok? I'm not seriously suggesting you and Zexion be together forever, although I admit it would be freaking amazing.

Riku: Fine, what ever…*evil grin*…you owe me though.

Me: Hahaha ok fine we'll discuss my payment later. If you don't want to see me writing this go find something to do.

Riku: I shall, get me when you done. *leaves room*

Me: Ok I don't own KH if I did that would be awesomeness, but sadly I don't. I don't own anything involving it either, well besides this story. And I will not make a profit from it. Ok story time.

Halloween Romance

Riku Young lived in a rather decent sized city. He went to high school and was now in his senior year. He has a few friends, but he sometimes prefers to stay by himself. He is currently single and is in desperate need of some kind of infatuating attention. He knows he is outgoing when he wants to be and he knows that there are many ways to find people like him that are near or far. He prefers near though…most people do I suppose. I noticed him when I was first starting my junior year and it was lunch. He was sitting on the opposite side and end of the table I was sitting at. And I couldn't help but notice his sleek silver hair. After school that day I decided to ask what his full name was from some people and look him up on Facebook. I sent him a friend request and that was that.

School was the same as usual, nagging teachers, preppy cheerleading announcements that I would have really preferred not to listen to, and so forth of a boring high school day. Until once again, lunch arrived. I looked over toward where Riku had been sitting and noticed he wasn't there. I looked at the empty table in front of me and then back to the same spot. I was rather confused at where he was since he sits there everyday. I looked around the cafeteria and spotted him at the opposite side of the room, that definitely struck a cord in me. 'Oh god I don't think he knows me. He might be uninterested in my request from the other day…' and so on went my rant about not being accepted by him until he looked my way. I turned as soon as he saw me and turned a rather deep red or so I thought I couldn't know I wasn't looking in a mirror. I looked back and he was still looking at me, with this confused, lonely, wanting look on his face. Obviously there was something wrong with what I did cause I knew, his beautiful ocean blue eyes were staring straight at me.

As the hours slowly passed I could barely keep my head straight in class. This was uncommon for me and so the teacher kept asking if I was alright, "Yes, I'm fine. Please continue with the lesson." The truth was I wasn't fine. My thoughts were overwhelmed with ongoing wonder. I just couldn't help, but drift as I looked out the window and hope he was ok with me.

After school, as usual I went to the library in town. It was magnificent. So beautifully built and full of books that just swept me away, but sadly I wasn't here to read a timeless keepsake. I was there for business, well not really business, business. I decided I was going to use the library for internet action. And no not for school actions, but face book. I needed to see if he accepted my request and or sent me a message. It was agonizing just waiting for my computer to load the web page, I nearly threw the bloody machine across the room I was so impatient. "Finely," I whispered. There was two new notifications on my home page and I about died of happiness as I saw he accepted my request and sent me a message.

I clicked on the message and waited for it to open.

'Hello, Zexion. Yes, I know your name. I've known about you for a little while now, but don't have the courage to ask you to hang out or anything. Yeah I know I'm a big chicken. Any ways, I was wondering…well if maybe you would like to meet me tomorrow. You know since its Saturday and all, maybe we could hang out. If that's ok with you? Ill be at the old park on 6th St. I know you know where it is, I've picked that place since I see you there a lot. Ill be there around four, hope to see you then.

Riku.'

"Oh my god…," I said to myself, "He wants to meet me somewhere, and not just anywhere, but my favorite place in this slow little town. What should I reply?" I thought about it as I read his message another three times. Then finely replied, read it a few times and hit send. "Ok, well it might take a while for him to get that so I guess Ill head home and make me some Ramón and wait."

I wok up unusually early, Id say perhaps to early since I was so excited about the events that would unravel throughout the day. It was 10:00 am and I was already forming a tornado in my closet to find something nice to wear. 'Well, it is fall,' I thought to myself, 'oh how I love this season.' I picked out some black skinny jeans and an Alesana t-shirt.

I set them on the bed and went into my shower.

Two hours later after getting ready, 'God, really? Its only 12:30, shit. What to do, what to do.' I decided Id watch a movie that was considerably long. After a few hours it was finally time to head out. I went to my room and grabbed a hoody from my closet and walked out the door after telling my mom Id be out for a bit.

I was entering the old park gates and thinking about what we were going to do and what not. While I noticed why I loved this park so much. There were old maple trees and weeping willows all around and the playground for the little ones was one of those dark old Victorian sets. The beauty of this place just absolutely swept me away, that's one of the reasons I loved spending countless hours here. The other reason is that it was next to one of the most old and beautiful cemetery you would have ever laid your eyes on. I know that sounds rather dark and depressing that I hang around old parks and cemeteries', but I don't really care. It fits my personality and barely anyone hangs around there, so I have a sort of sanctuary, I guess, to contemplate my thoughts.

Half way to the playground I spotted a glimpse of silver among a few of the trees. As I headed toward it a light breeze rustled around some leaves and I got a chill as I saw it make the swings swing. 'Oh how I love this season,' I thought. I walked over to the trees and found Riku sitting under one of the willows. He appeared to have something delicate in his hand that he would not set down, for he was afraid the wind would have blown it away into oblivion. "Hello, Riku. How are you?" was all I could think of to say when I made my way there and was standing in front of him.

He just looked at me with I light smile as to tell me to sit, so I sat on the little bench under the tree with him. "I'm good. I'm so happy that you could make it. I was getting worried that you wouldn't show," he said obvious that he wanted to see me. Which in turn made me delighted that so far I wasn't being rejected, but accepted. "Well it was my pleasure," I stated back with a light smile, "What is that you have, might I ask?" He looked at me confused and then realized he was holding something out of my sight. This made me giggle, for he was to lost to realize his own intensions. "Oh yeah, this…well I wanted to give this to you. You see my sister has a garden and she plants the most wonderful roses, and well I've known about you for a while and kind of was wondering if maybe you'd like to go out with me?" from the way he was talking you could tell he's been working up the courage to do this a long time. I looked at the little white rose he held in front of my face and had to agree his sister knew how to care for flowers. "Yes," was all I had to say. I would have said more, but knowing of this new found relationship had me in hazy overflowing thoughts.

"Oh thank god! I was so scared you were going to say no just by how long you took to answer," he said. It was cute how nervous he looked. "Well to be honest," I stated, "lets just say I've been watching you from a far as well." With this he lit up and gave me a rather big hug, which I liked, but wasn't very used to. I ended up tensing, but gave him a hug back. "Then since we are together, I have another question for you. Would you like to come over to my place and watch some horror movies with me, seeing as it will be Halloween next weekend I thought that would be something you would like to do?" I thought about his question for a moment and decided I would love to seeing as I love horror flicks and All Hallows Eve is my favorite holiday. "Sure, that sounds like a plan. You picked a good day to ask me to do that with you too," I answered cheerfully. "Really, why is that?," he asked with a smile on his face. Man I love the way his eyes look when he smiles. "That is my favorite holiday." "Well then I'm going to have to make it extra special, but I'm not going to tell you. it's a secret," he laughed as he got up and started walking toward the swings.

I watched him as he sat on them and then motioned for me to do the same. I did so. I stood up and started walking to the swing next to him, and just before a was going to sit down he took my wrist and looked at me. Then he pointed to his lap. Oh this made me smile and laugh. "You want me to sit on your lap?" He just looked at me and pouted while he nodded. I complied to his request and nestled onto his lap. He held my waist while I held the swing's chains so we wouldn't fall into the dew covered grass. "So, you have a secret and don't want to share it, not even with me?" I said as I looked at the ground and he rested his chin on my shoulder. "Yes, indeed I do. You cant know though because it's a secret for you," he laughed. "Ok, Ill wait for the weekend, but I must tell you. That task is going to be much more complicated to accomplish than you think."

With that said we got up and started to walk out of the park. We talked for hours as we walked around town looking at shops and laughing at random things. Then he grabbed my hand halfway to my house. I looked at him as we walked in silence. "I'm sorry is it uncomfortable for you?" he said with a little sadness as he began to pull away before he realized I was still holding his. "No, I like it," with that he smiled on until we reached my house. We stood at the driveway and he stood in front of me so we were facing each other. "So, I had a fun time, how about you?" he asked. "Yes, I liked it a lot. You know its only Saturday, if you want you can come in and hang out for a bit," was my reply. "I would so love to do that, but I already told my mom I would be home for dinner." "Ok, well then what about tomorrow?" I asked a little disappointed, but not enough to show it. "Maybe, I have to run errands and do chores, but maybe I could pick you up for lunch?" "Yeah, that would be good," I said with a smile as we exchanged phone numbers. Then he looked at me and well I just couldn't help to look back and he kissed me. And of course my guard went up a little, but soon I kissed back and latched on to his neck in turn he latched on to my waist. We kissed like that for about a minute and a half till we ran out of air. 'Damn need of oxygen,' I thought. He said by and headed home as I went inside.

"How was your date?" my mom spastically giggled as she got up from the back of the couch and it was clearly obvious she was watching us from the front window. I'm so lucky to have a parent that wont yell at me for being gay, god that just helps so much. "It was good, and I thought I told you not to spy on me when I'm out with people? What happened to that promise?" I looked at her while sliding my jacket off and tossing it on the couch. "I'm sorry, your just so cute. And when ever I see you happy with other people it makes me all happy! So, what's his name, is he nice?" And this would be my mother for you, loving, but nosey. "His name is Riku and yes, mom, he is very kind," I answered as we walked into the kitchen so I could grab a soda. "Is he from your school, he doesn't do anything bad like drugs or anything right?" "Yes he goes to my school. No he doesn't, he's smart and knows what that stuff can do to you," I love my mom. Honestly I do, but sometimes this gets tiring. "Ok, one more question. How old is he?" this I hoped to god she wouldn't get mad at me for. I don't think she would seeing as he's only a year older than me. "He's a senior," I stated. "Really? Oh my god! My baby is growing up so fast!" and now come the water works of joy and what ever else. Every time I meet someone she gets all emotional. "This is so wonderful, I know its only the third person you dated, but maybe this one will be the one!" This is the other reason I dislike sharing my dating life with my mother. She always reminds me of the other two guys I dated.

These guys were kind of friends and I didn't really know them. They turned out to be on the abusive side. The first one used me and yelled and sometimes would hit me, he ended up getting sued by me and my mom. Thank god. The second one was only emotional abuse, but I was afraid it would escalate to physical so I broke it off. "Right, well mom I'm off to bed. Goodnight," I said as I headed up the stairs to my room. "Goodnight, sweet dreams," was all I heard as I closed the door. I kicked my shoes off put some pjs on and went to bed thinking of tomorrow and the fallowing weekend.
