Author's Notes: Hi everyone! My name is RikuxXxSora! It's nice to meet you all! I have been writing for a few years now, but never finished a story, let alone published one! So if you'll bear with me, (and review), I will try my VERY best to finish this story. My goal is to make this a thirteen chapter fan fiction.
Listening to: One Summer's Day by Joe Hisaishi (my muse)
RxS: So, without further ado, N! (p.s. You'll understand the chap titles when it's all over!)
"Roxy," Sora whispered, innocent ocean-blue eyes filling with tears threatening to spill over, bottom lip quivering. "This isn't fair! Why can't he adopt me to? I don't wanna be separated from you…" Finally his tears spilled over the brink, rolling down his cheeks staining them with sorrow. Roxas and Sora were seated under their favorite tree: a cherry blossom tree. It's beautiful, pale pink blossoms slowly being carried away by the soft spring breeze. They were facing each other, one crying, and the other looking sad and concerned. "Sora, I don't know why, but will you please quit crying? This isn't the end Sora, it never was, and never will be. We will see each other again, I don't know when, but we will. We'll always—" But Sora interrupted him. "No we won't! You'll forget about me! This IS the end Roxas! You're getting adopted, and we'll never see each other again, and you know it! So don't you DARE fill me with false hope!" Sora screamed, voice cracking with despair. "Sora, PLEASE, hear me out! We will meet again! I swear it! I love you Sora…" Roxas leaned over and hugged, bringing Sora flush against his chest. Knowing he was hugging his best friend for the last time, for probably a long time. But he couldn't cry. He promised himself he wouldn't. He had to be strong for Sora…and he would do just that.
"Roxas! Time to go little buddy! Say goodbye to your little friend, and meet me at the car!" Cloud called while carrying the remainder of Roxas' bags to his car. Roxas stood up, and extended his hand out to his best friend. Sora tentatively took it, dreading the goodbye he knew was coming. And they walked hand in hand over to the car, Roxas opening the door and slowly climbing in. On Sora's wedding finger, he noticed something familiar. The ring pop Roxas had given him as a make-shift wedding ring. Sora still had it…
~flashback~
"Sora," Roxas said while on one knee. "Will you marry me?" Sora's eyes grew to the size of dinner plates. "Of course I will, silly!" Sora said launching himself onto his 'fiancé.'
Roxas ran in to get someone to be the pretend minister. He emerged moments later, play minister in tow. "Marry us, NOW!" Roxas demanded, pointing at the play minister's designated spot. "Of course, your majesty." The boy sneered, only receiving a glare in response.
"Yatta yatta, blah blah blah, more boring stuff. FINALLY! Roxas Strife, do you take Sora to be your lawfully wedded…er…" "Lawfully wedded wife? Of course I do, idiot." Sora only giggled at this. "Fine whatever, so, Sora Leonheart, do you take Roxas do be your lawfully wedded husband?" "I do! I do!" Sora responded, jumping up and down, practically giddy with excitement. "Well then, that settles it! You may now kiss the bride!" Roxas leaned in happily, haphazardly placing his lips on Sora's to seal the deal. "Now your mine forever!" Roxas laughed maniacally as he dragged a giggling Sora off for their pretend honeymoon.
~flashback end~
'Good times…' Roxas thought, but was thrust back into reality upon hearing the roar of the car's engine. "Bye Sor." Roxas said hugging Sora one last time before closing the door. Sora's tears ran silently over his already tear-stained cheeks. "Goodbye Roxy…" Sora whispered to himself before watching Roxas' car slowly drive away. Before it turned the corner, Sora did the only thing he knew to do to get his message across. 'You,' Sora pointed towards Roxas. 'And me,' Sora pointed to himself. 'Together,' bringing his fists together, crossed his thumbs and pointed upward. 'Forever.' Bringing his fists around in a small outward circle, thumbs still pointed upward. Roxas saw Sora's sign language message and smiled warmly to himself, before pointing to his eye, 'I'. 'Love,' Roxas crossed his arms in an X over his chest. 'You.' Roxas pointed to Sora. After seeing this Sora broke down. Kneeling, face buried in his hands. His body shook, racked with emotion. But Roxas hadn't seen this, for his dad's car had already sped around the corner and away.
~Roxas' POV~
"Roxas! Turn around and sit down right in your seat." Roxas' eyebrow cocked up at the command as he looked over at his man who claimed to be his father. "Excuse me?!? I don't giva flyin flip if you are my dad or not! You don't have any right to order me around like some dog, understand???" "Roxas, son, I know this is going to be hard for you to understand, but I didn't leave alone on purpose. I can't believe your mother abandoned you like she did. And I know you miss your friend, but you and he will cross paths again someday. But until then, say strong for him, okay?" "Yeah, whatever." Roxas let out a breath he didn't realize he had been holding. He relaxed a little even though Cloud intimidated him…not that he'd even admit it.
Little did he know, it would be a while before he saw Sora again and realized his true feelings.
