Sora
"Sora!" The silver-haired teen ran over to his best friend, a spiky-haired brunet by the name of Sora, who was busy putting his books into his locker. Sora looked over to at him and smiled.
"Hey Ri- Whoa!" The younger teen was cut off suddenly when he was yanked away from his locker by his flustered friend.
Sora glanced back at his locker that stood wide open for the world to see its contents, a worried expression on his face. He didn't want anything to get stolen!
"Riku! Riku wait! My locker!" Sora tried to resist Riku's pulling, but instead just ended up tripping over his own feet.
"It'll be fine! I just need to talk to you." Sora sensed something was up by the tone of voice his best friend was using with him and immediately forgot about his locker.
As he trailed behind the older teen he asked, voice filling with concern, "Ri, is everything okay?"
"Yeah everything's fine. Just gotta talk to you." Riku replied as he and Sora turned a corner and quickly walked down a near empty hall.
Sora watched as Riku looked from one side of the hall to the other, in search of something. Suddenly Riku stopped, opened a door, and pulled Sora inside.
The brunet stumbled into the semi-dark room and bumped into a desk nearby.
As the brunet regained his balance, Riku closed the door behind them.
Sora turned to Riku, about to ask him what was up when Riku pressed his lips against the brunet's.
Sora's blue eyes widened immediately as Riku pulled him closer. Sora resisted, pushing him back and breaking them apart.
Riku staggered back. Sora's eyes had adjusted well enough to the darkness to be able to make out Riku's shocked and slightly hurt expression.
"Sor?"
It took Sora a moment to find his voice, but when he did all he could say was, "What the heck?"
"Sora…I'm sorry."
"I thought you wanted to talk, Riku. But apparently our definitions of talking are completely different." Sora exclaimed. He heard Riku sigh and suddenly the lights were flipped on, causing Sora to squint.
"Ah, God Riku."
"Oh, the light…right." Riku acknowledged the reason as to why Sora sounded so frustrated. Sora sighed this time as he sat on top of a desk.
"Riku, what's going on?" His eyes had finally adjusted once again to the light and were now watching his best friend.
"Sora…" Riku began, his voice soft. "You're right. I did say I wanted to talk to you, and it was completely unfair of me to kiss you like that before I told you what I wanted to say."
Sora smiled reassuringly. "It's okay."
"No, it's not." Riku looked at the brunet and shook his head. "You deserve an explanation."
"Okay. I'm game for that." Sora laughed and sat back on his hands, waiting for Riku to begin talking.
"Well to put it bluntly, I love you. For a long time I have. But being your best friend, I didn't want to ruin anything between us. It didn't want to ruin the friendship we've had established for many years. But recently it's gotten so bad…my feelings have gotten stronger, so much stronger that I couldn't resist them and I finally broke down. Me kissing you was the ending result. I'm sorry." Riku admitted.
Sora blinked at the silver-haired teen before hopping off the desk he was perched on. He walked over to Riku with a small smile on his features. Riku watched him advance toward him closely.
"Riku, I told you already that it was okay. Stop apologizing." Sora told him. Sora wrapped his arms around his best friend as said best friend stood there, unsure of what to do with himself.
"Sor…"
"Riku, I'll be honest with you, I don't love you with the same intensity you do. I won't lead you on and say I do. Being your best friend is way too important to me to screw up by pretending to feel something I don't. I don't want to hurt you."
"I understand, Sora. " Riku replied.
"But Riku, don't rule me out just yet. Just because I don't return your feelings right now, doesn't mean it won't happen. There is still a possibility that I could….Just, that hasn't happened yet."
Then, before he pulled away, Sora gave Riku a quick kiss on the cheek. Riku blinked at the brunet in surprise. Sora grinned cheerfully at his best friend before walking around the teen and leaving the room.
--
Riku woke with a start. He looked around his dark room.
"It was…a dream."
Putting his head in his hands he groaned, annoyed.
"Damn it. What is wrong with me? Feeling that way about Sora…even if it is in my dreams." Riku fell back into his pillows where he sighed.
"Like that'd ever happen."
