Tke: I wasn't really at a romantic place in my stories, so I guess I just needed some romance to ease my system.
Riku: you're doing one from my perspective, that's not often.
Tke: Hmmm, true, but I like this one; it's cute and short.
Riku: Tke owns nothing, if she did; Sora and I would be a couple faster than you can say 'Heartless'.

There were many traits about his boyfriend that he loved; Riku couldn't deny he loved them all.
Maybe it was the way Sora just was. Bubbly, kind, gentle, and so sweet Riku would probably get diabetes. He probably would too; Sora was so incredibly helpful to others around him. Wether it was from helping Squall and Cloud fight off enemies, to helping Kairi learn more meals to cook at parties she had, or helping King Mickey guard the castle, it was just the way Sora was.
Or maybe it was looks?
Sora's hair was completely soft, which surprises many people. He doesn't have a single ounce of gel in it; at least, Riku does feel any when he runs his fingers through it. The spikes were natural, and Sora's mother says he even had them when he was born, they just stuck to his head, which is weird because even with water now they spike out normal.
It could've possibly been Sora's rather outrageous outfit, which was a big possibility. Sora's big and bright highlighter yellow shoes replaced with respectful black. He'd gone from having every basic color on his outfit to having black sprinkled in with his favorite colors. Not only had he grown up, but so had his outfit. And that, itself, was proving to be strong enough against all weather.
Was it Sora's attitude? Sora was sweet and kind to a default, but that didn't mean he didn't have his bad streak every once in a while. Riku seemed to sit there, as Sora would tell him plans that he had, or things he'd attempt to do (which included locking Squall and Cloud in a closet until they admitted their feelings for each other). But it was true everyone had a dark side to their heart, wasn't it?
But maybe that's why Riku loved him so much, because Sora wouldn't give into that dark side. Sure Sora would contact Roxas through his dreams, and they'd sit and talk about the Organization, and Heartless, and Nobodies, but that didn't mean the darkness would control him. In fact, Sora grew to trust Roxas, no matter his powers of the dark; he trusted him so much he allowed Roxas to take over his body and all powers for hours. And in those hours Roxas would talk to Riku, telling him about Axel, his dreams, his hopes, and everything the blond could remember.
Maybe it was because no matter how important Sora was—being the 'key' to saving all the worlds—he was human, and people knew him as just Sora. Sora had dreams like everyone else. Unfortunately, he also had nightmares. Riku remembered waking up to Sora, awake and sobbing, reliving horrid memories from their travels. He'd remember dying—something that neither wanted to happen again—betrayals, and deaths.
Maybe it was Sora's attitude to take the world's problems on his shoulders and attempt to deal with it alone. The first month home Sora had been an emotional train wreck, blaming everything on himself as if he could control everything. Roxas would tell him, over and over, Axel's death wasn't his fault and Sora would live each day blaming it on himself. And when Riku told Sora the fights were just fate, it was no one but Ansem's fault for causing the two to fight, Sora blamed it on himself for not being a good friend.
Or maybe it would be the moments after Sora had a nightmare or got depressed, the way Riku would mutter jokes in the brunette's ear and Sora lit up like the sun. Sora's smiles just seemed to get brighter and brighter as he grew older. He just seemed to bring the sun's radiance with him, and that one smile gave all the warmth Riku needed. That smile just seemed to pull everyone towards Sora, welcoming people to come near him and be friends with him.
Maybe it was Sora's spirit, the will to never give up, the confidence to see everyone through, and the heart to protect everyone. Sora was, after all, a fighter for the Light side, and he would use his powers only to protect loved ones. However, now and again Riku wouldn't be surprised when he'd see Sora secretly using Firaga to screw up Wakka and Tidus' oven during cooking class, then go back to helping Riku cook.
Or maybe it was how pure his heart was? He'd drop everything just to help a friend and wouldn't be willing to leave one behind. Riku was proof enough, leaving behind everyone for power and strength, but Sora hadn't given up on him. He braved all and helped Riku face his inside demons, just to give the silver-haired teen happiness. And Riku couldn't think of anything to give the brunette in return to equal something as powerful in his life as that.
Riku craned his neck to look up the stairs at where his and his boyfriend's bedroom was with a sleeping brunette inside. He hated waking up on mornings, so early that he had a cup of coffee, and sat there, and thunk. He hated thinking things like this, like he wasn't good enough for his boyfriend. But maybe that's the way all relationships were in the end, weren't they? If they truly loved each other, then they would believe they didn't deserve each other and it would cause trouble for them both.
Riku sighed, finishing up his coffee before setting his mug in the sink with a quiet 'clink'.
"Morning… Riku…" Sora's sleepy voice trailed in, he was rubbing his eye with his hand and yawning, and Riku couldn't help but think of him as impossibly cute.
"Morning sky." Riku mummered leaning over to kiss his boyfriend softly and watching Sora give a soft smile.
Sora pulled away a few seconds later, his nose scrunched up in distaste and lips pouting, "You taste like coffee."
Riku chuckled, kissing his lover's cheek before looking down at him.
Quite possibly, it was those eyes. Those eyes so rare that Riku could drown in them, and frankly, he wouldn't mind. His lover's eyes would be the window, the door, to all his emotions and feelings. But no matter what emotion was in them, they were incredibly gorgeous. Sora would wear his heart on his sleeve, proudly, and Riku loved to watch his little lover go through great lengths just to watch those eyes glow with excitement or any emotion the brunette could feel. Those emotions were human, and Riku, after having been in the darkness so long, only wanted that, to feel human.
"What?" Sora snapped, though his eyes twinkled with amusement.
Riku grinned, leaning down and kissing his boyfriend, ignoring the brunette's protest of the coffee taste, "Nothing."
It truly was those eyes.
