Disclaimer- I don't own anything except teh sidekick I wrote this on... Everything belongs to SquareEnix and Long Island.
Author's Note- Sorry about the wierd format, these were all typed on a sidekick so they came out kidna wierd. I suppose if you acually live on Long Island you could appreciate this a lil more but hopefully it wont be too big of a deal. Well as I said earlier, I wrote this just for the fun of writting it so some things may not make much sense, either way, please R&R- my first serious fanfic.
Sora saw the LIRR train up on the raised tracks slowing to a stop from

across the street in the pizzaria. "Ahh, Riku lets go! The train is

here!"

But Riku was already out of the bathroom and packing some bottles of

water into his backpack while leading Sora out of the under-sized

resturant. Sora stopped for a second to check his reflection in one of

the many mirrors lining the walls of the small buildiing. "Come on!"

Riku said, grabbing Sora with one hand and stuffing his pizza into his

mouth with the other. "Rairi ill be a tu each ight?" Riku tried

yelling with half of his peperoni and sausage slice still hanging out of

his mouth as they were chased across the street by several angry car

honks.

"She said she would meet us at the bus-stop-" Sora paused to whipe his

mouth on his short-sleeve-back and white hoodie which he was wearing

over a plain red shirt, "-right outside the Long Beach station." The

two sprinted up the stairs, taking two at a time as they flew past the

impatient escalator guests. They made it to the top of the platform and

didn't stop running until they were safely in their seats in the back of

one of the middle cars. "Phew, you got your ticket?" Sora sighed more

than asked as the train began moving.

Riku took a moment to swallow the rest of his slice then finally

answered, "Yup, right here." as he took his wallet out of the back

pocket of his jeans and removed his monthly pass, waving it in Sora's

face.

Sora did the same and stuck both tickets in the seam on the top of the

seat for the conducter to come and punch yet another hole in each.

After a moment of silence, Sora finally mumbled, "Ya' know, I've been

hearing alotta people think we're gay."

Riku just laughed, as if Sora had told a joke.

"Seriously, people acually believe it!" Sora finally raised his voice

to a normal level.

"Yeah whatever, crazy fanfic girls online will do all kindsa crazy

stuff when they like you." At this, both boys laughed and forever

dismissed the topic.

The train ride wasn't long, but Sora began to snooze while Riku just

gazed out of the window. Then without warning, Sora's head snapped up

as he kicked the seat in front of him and elbowed Riku in the ribbs.

"What was that?" Riku yelled, more to blow off the evil looks from the

people in the seat in front of them then to acually hear Sora's answer.

"Wha-uhh... Oh!" Sora shoved his left hand into the pocket of his

baggy black pants which were rolled up just below his knees as his cell

phone vibrated once again. "Message from Kairi. She says... she's at

the bus-stop already, and why aren't we."

"We're pulling in now." Riku said as he rose to his feet and pushed

Sora to his. Sora strained to see Kairi waving from down bellow the

tracks and waved back as Riku forced him into the aisle of the train.

Sora hopped out of the train with a giant smile on his face as Riku

continued shoving him in the direction of the steps. Sora kept sounding

like he was about to say something but never managed to get a full word

out.

"Hey guys!" Kairi yelled from across the street as the two ran over to

her, bumping into eachother. She was wearing one of her usual skirts,

black today, and had a leather bag on her hip. She wore an unzipped

light-weight white hoodie over a tight purple sleeveless shirt. "The

bus should be here any minute now... What? Is there something on my

face?" Sora was staring at Kairi with a crooked smirk on his face and

Riku was just looking between the two of them, laughing.

The bus pulled up and exhaust broke the akward mood as the three of

them climbed onto the bus, each one chuckling to themselves, stuck in

their own thoughts.

"Eykids, Two bucks each." The bus driver grumbling without taking his

eyes off the windsheild.

"Oh right, Riku you got the bus." Sora said as he lead Kairi to the

back row and Riku payed the six dollars.

"...and I'll get the icecream, and we all split dinner." Sora finished

explaining to Kairi as Riku joined.

"Sounds good. So what'd you two do thismorning?" Kairi asked, just

trying to get the conversation going.

"Uhh, breakfast at home, then we went out skating for a lil' while. We

stopped at Riku's for a some DDR and then had the classic combo of a

7-11 slurpee and Front Street pizza for lunch."

"What were you doing again Kairi?" Riku asked.

"Oh uhh, nothing too important. Just out... shopping for a little

while."

Riku moaned a suspicious aknowledgement and then turned his intrest to

the increasingly expensive houses outside of the window.

"It's been a while since we went to the islands hasn't it?" Kairi

whispered staring straight ahead, obviously lost in memories of the

times they used to spend there.

"Well since my mom and I moved from the shore it's been much more of a

hassel for all of us to get out there. Remember when the three of us

would spend the night at my house just so we could get back to the

island before all the others the next morning?"

"Yeah," Kairi smiled as she thought back, "and we would just spend

days without doing anything productive. We could just waste what seemed

like endless time. And strangley enough, those were the days we seemed

to get the most done." Riku looked over at Kairi and smiled for a

moment and then went back to his house watching.

None of them said another word until they arrived at the beach parking

lot and filed out with other beach-goers. They all missed the old days

that seemed to last for so much longer than these days do, but that was

why they were heading to the islands today; to relive the memories of

years past.
