He loved it.
Waking up, having breakfast and even reading the newspaper. If she was in front of him during all those times, he found the world bright. He loved her so much that even the road to Dawn didn't seem so hard, because if she was with him, he didn't fear a thing.
He didn't care where they were - Twilight Town, Radiant Garden, even Maleficent's castle seemed like a nice home to live in. Because she would be there.
It was funny, how everyone thought that he would end up alone. People's pity used to drive him crazy. But when he met her, those people as if disappeared, leaving only her in his eyes.
She brightened his world without even trying. And because of that, he would go to the end of the world for her.
Waking up in sweat, Riku tried to catch his breath, while the storm outside was roaring like a horrid monster. Paying no mind to the lighting that just graced the black sky, he stood up and slowly walked around his room. "Again." He didn't even notice how he spoke out loud. Lost in his thoughts, Riku took a glass from the nearby sink and filled it with water. Drinking slowly, he closed his eyes only to see her vision for the millionth time.
He was beyond irritated. Who was she?
Did he miss Kairi in his unconsciousness that he would imagine a black-haired version of her? He couldn't help but wonder and as he returned to bed, he again gave in the realm of sleep. As he started dreaming of her again, a tear fell off his cheek, slowly rolling down his lips.
"Xion."
