PART TWO

After that kiss Riku and Sora hadn't been able to be alone. Every time Riku thought they would be alone Kairi always came and dragged Sora away. Their behavior made Riku's doubtful thought worse.

The sun was whining brightly today and he covered his eyes against it as he lay back on the sand. He felt himself drifting to sleep but sat up when a shadow fell on him. Selphie stood there grinning down at him.

"Hello, Riku!" Her voice was as cheerful as always.

"Hey." His voice was as unemotional as always.

"Come on, now." She grabbed his arm and tried to pull him up.

Riku stood only to be pulled by his hand. "Where exactly are you taking me?"

"It's a surprise! Hurry though; I don't think Sora can sit still very long." That made Riku curious enough to speed up his pace.

When they got to Sora's house there was no sign of him. He was about to say something when he was tackled and heard the yell of "Happy birthday!"

Riku had actually had forgotten that today was his birthday. He looked down at Sora, who had been the one to tackle him. Sora was grinning and slowly Riku's shock faded and he kissed Sora gently.

Sora pulled Riku over the where all their friends were. "We surprised you, huh? I told everyone it would be a good idea."

"You make it sound like we thought otherwise." Kairi laughed lightly.

Riku continued to smile. "So, this is why I couldn't get you alone all week?"

Sora opened his mouth to reply but before he could Kairi spoke. "Of course. We couldn't let him spend alone time with you. You of all people should know Sora can't keep a secret, especially from you. If we left him alone with you who knew what he may have said." At the end of her mini speech Sora was pouting and clinging to Riku unconsciously, drawing a chuckle from him. Kairi continued after a moment though. "You don't know how hard it was to keep him away from you and focused."

Selphie came skipping out of a room further in the back of the house, Tidus behind her carrying a cake.

Sora stopped pouting then and pulled Riku over to the table where the cake sat. "Okay, Riku, make a wish."

Truthfully there wasn't much that Riku wanted. He already had it all. He smiled as he looked over his shoulder at Sora. Suddenly he knew exactly what to wish for. Looking at the cake again he made his wish and blew out the candles.
