Mistletoe Mishap

A/N: Completed at 12:00:04. Happy Holidays, everyone!
Well...her intentions had been good...and that was all that counted, right?
...Right?
Selphie sniffled pitifully, giving Tidus-poor, poor bastard-the puppy eyes (goodness only knew why he was susceptible).
"It's all right, Selphie. Sora's going to be...just...fine?"
He looked over at Wakka hopefully, but the redheaded blitzer just shrugged and shook his head, "I ain' so sure, 'brudda. I mean, c'mon, did you see the way his face--?"
Wakka only had a moment to wince at his mistake before a long, shrill, wail erupted from Tidus' girlfriend.
"Selphie! Selphie-I-oh, Selphie, please--" Tidus managed to beg and shout at the same time.
Axel's face, if at all possible, grew more pained than it had been from the toll of all that laughing he'd done earlier.
Roxas and Kairi went immediately in search of pillows to halt the horrible noise emerging from the sunny brunette.
Riku winced from his post at the closed door of his bathroom upstairs, "What the hell are they doing down there?" He muttered, irritated, then gently, "Hey, Sora...? You...okay in there?"
Just then the door to the bathroom swung quietly open to reveal a rather miserable-looking keyblader in a Santa cap. His eyes were red and watering, his face was flushed, and there was a rash just beside Sora's hand, which, at the moment, was clutching his head.
He let out a low, plaintive moan when his eyes caught on Riku, "Do I look all right?"
"Not really." Riku answered automatically, then thought for a moment, "Actually, you look kind of cute like that, anyway. Almost like you're blushing."
He smirked.
The flush on Sora's cheeks increased slightly.
"Ha ha. That's real funny. Almost as funny as Selphie's stupid 'Mistletoe to the FAAACE! HiyAAAAAH!' trick." He deadpanned.
"It is funny."
"Yeah...her tryin' to pair us up 'n all...What a laugh." Sora agreed absently, looking down at his feet.
The Santa cap drooped a little, the ball of white fluff dangling in his eyes.
The sheer adorable look of it was not lost on Riku.
He smirked, settling back on the wall beside Sora, arms crossed and another smirk playing on his lips.
"Well, I guess I'll have to laugh at it after I've thanked Selphie for helping me get just what I wanted for Christmas."
Sora froze.
"...What?"
"I'll collect my kiss after the swelling goes down." Riku raised a suggestive brow, face suddenly close to Sora's, before walking off toward the stairs.
He was about halfway there when he turned his head to look back, "Wasn't sure how to let you know otherwise. Sorry. I didn't know you were allergic to the stuff."
He winked.
And Sora figured that he'd better hurry up and get some medicine, because, well, Riku had been an awfully good boy this year.
A/N: I'll be sure to get everything else out soon. :)
