A/N: This is my first story =D Whoo! Well Chapter 2's here but I'm not that pleased with some parts of it =/ Anyways enjoy the story!

Every day, after school, Sora would go into Mrs. Lockhart's classroom and wait for his "tutor" to come. He couldn't ignore the fast beating of his heart everytime Kairi sat down next to him. She smelled of strawberries and vanilla and her voice just could send him to heaven. It was just so angelic and he really missed her terribly. He could stay in school all day just for her.

"Sora, are you listening?"

"Huh?" Sora snapped out of his trance. He had been staring at her…again. He nodded as she giggled.

"What's so funny?" Sora asked, a bit amused.

"You," she said smiling at him.

Sora felt his cheeks go red. He looked away and started playing with his pencil again. Then they both heard the bell ring.

"Well, that's it for today I guess," Kairi said standing up, gathering her books. "Sora? I never said this but I'm really glad I'm your tutor. I missed spending time with you."

Sora still didn't look at her and just nodded. She smiled faintly and walked out of the room.

When she left, Sora smacked himself on the forehead. "She's Riku's girlfriend, she's Riku's girlfriend…"

He left shortly after and headed for home. Wow, Kairi misses me too, he thought and he smiled to himself.

…

Kairi walked home by herself as Riku wasn't there to pick her up. This is the third time this week, she thought. He was probably out with his friends again. Well, I don't really mind, she thought. Even if the walking did hurt her feet. She lived pretty far from the school.

Suddenly, someone skated right past her. Kairi gasped and sighed.

"Sora, you nearly gave me a heart attack!" she laughed.

"I couldn't resist," he said.

Kairi smiled, glad to have company. He skated beside her and looked at her curiously. She looked back, and she could see her own reflection in his dark, clear blue eyes.

She blushed slightly and looked away, biting on her bottom lip.

"Shouldn't Riku be taking you home?" Sora asked, a little bit glad he didn't.

"He forgot…again," she replied, being a little embarrassed.

"Oh, well how far is your home?"

"Pretty far."

"Doesn't your feet hurt?" he asked, concerned.

Right now, she seemed so small compared to Sora. She had a petite body and didn't look like it could take her that far.

Kairi silently nodded and Sora frowned. How could Riku forget to take her home? She has to walk home like this everyday?

"Why don't you take the bus?" he asked about a few minutes later.

"I didn't because Riku said he didn't want me to go on the bus with other guys there. He said that he would take me home everyday and that popular people just don't take the bus," she said rolling her eyes.

"Hm…" Sora said, knowing Riku indeed had a lot of pride.

"Why are you still here?" Kairi asked.

"What?" he asked confused.

"Don't you have other things to do?" she asked quietly, knowing he must be bored.

"I want to walk you home," Sora said quietly. "What you don't want me here? Fine, I'll leave then."

He went on his skateboard and started to go away when he felt his arm being tugged, hard.

"Ow! Okay, okay I'll stay!" Sora said as she released his arm. When her touch left, he had wanted her to hold on a little bit longer. He missed her touch, even if it was a painful one.

He was pretty amused now. He didn't realize how much she wanted him to stay with her.

"I just don't like being alone," Kairi said. Sora nodded. Then he felt a pang of pain in his heart. How did he feel when Kairi and Riku just went together and left him alone? He shook it away and put his hands in his pockets.

"Sora?" Kairi said nudging him with her arm. Sora looked up, staring straight ahead.

"What's up, Kairi?" he asked, avoiding her eyes.

"You can leave if you don't like staying with me," she whispered.

Sora looked at her and laughed. Kairi glared at him and asked, "What's so funny?"

"I like being with you," he said and he stopped laughing to see her reaction.

She was pretty shocked. Her mouth opened and then she closed it.

"Oh," she said and she felt the heat rise to her cheeks.

Kairi realized Sora not on his skateboard anymore but walking next to her. She felt his arm brush against hers and again her cheeks grew hot. He usually moved back whenever their arms brushed against each others, but now he just stayed, their bodies right next to each other.

She felt good with him by her side. His warmth calmed her, knowing he wasn't going to leave. Just then a car honked and she turned to see Riku driving down the street.

"Hey Kairi!" he said, waving. Kairi rolled her eyes and started walking faster. Sora was behind her now and he didn't know how to react.

"Kairi, what's your deal?" Riku asked. He parked the car and got out. He pulled her arm and pulled her to him.

"Riku, let go," she said, glaring at his aquamarine eyes. Sora was a little bit worried, why was he in the middle of this?

"Kairi, I'm here to take you home," Riku said ignoring Sora this whole time. "Come on, stop being so stubborn." He put his arm around her waist and pulled her towards his car.

Kairi pushed him away and stood there, her arms crossed over her chest. "Sora's taking me home," she simply said.

Riku stood there confused. He looked at Kairi and then he looked at Sora. Riku clenched his teeth and stared at Kairi's angry face.

"You're letting him take you home but not me?" he said, his piercing eyes staring at Sora.

Sora didn't know what to do. He didn't want to get between them, but he felt Kairi had the right to be mad at him. He doesn't show up in time but just when she was halfway there, he shows up with his car and forcing her to go in it.

"Yeah, that's what you get for being late," she said. She turned around and started walking away.

"Kairi! Don't walk away from me," Riku pleaded. He ran and grabbed her arm again. "I'm sorry," he whispered. "Come on, give me one more chance."

Sora knew that when Riku begged, he was really sorry. Riku just doesn't beg. "Kairi, just let him take you home. Your feet are hurting anyway."

Kairi looked at him with her sad blue eyes. She glared back at Riku and finally snapped, "Fine, but you better be on time next time." She walked to his car and smiled at Sora whiling giving a small wave. "Thanks for walking me home, Sora."

"No problem," he said giving her the smile she had always adored.

Kairi felt butterflies in her stomach and went into Riku's car.

They drove off and Sora started walking back to his home. He sighed and smacked himself on the forehead again. Stupid, he thought, I am so stupid.

…

Riku was driving as Kairi sat next to him, not talking. Riku looked over at her and smiled. She looks hot when angry, he thought. He stopped in front of her house. As she was about leave, he put an arm around her waist and pulled her towards him. He kissed her soft lips and with touched her hair with his hand. He was kissing her roughly, but she didn't kiss back. She pushed him away with her two hands. Kairi rolled her eyes disgustingly and jumped out of the car.

She didn't even wave goodbye as she slammed the car door. She went into her house without looking once back at him.

Riku sighed and shook his head. He drove away and thought to himself, She'll come around by tomorrow. And where did Sora fit into all of this? He clenched his fists and said that he'll have a talk with Sora at school tomorrow.

A/N: Isn' t Riku charming? That was sarcasm. He just seems to think she'll forgive him, but I love Sora here. He saved Riku's relationship :O Stupid Sora XD Well I still love him =D Namine will get a bigger part in this story =] Ever wondered why she wasn't in the popular group? In theee next chapter =D
