I hate being ill. I'm off school one again. I hate my immune system. Its so crap. Anyway, whilst I'm off and I feel like I'll go crazy if I don't do something, I decided to update this fic.

Thank you to all those who have reviewed. And in response to a review about whether Sora and Namine might end up together, I don't know. I'm undecided if they do or not. And how come Kairi didn't mention Sora before? Well, you're about to find out.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything. Apart from the storyline and the computer that I'm using now. However, if I did own Kingdom Hearts, I would make Sora and Namine get together and Roxas and Kairi get together in numero 2. But sadly I don't. sniff

Chapter 3: The Problem With Sora

Crap. Double Crap.

"S…Sora?" I say quietly.

"Yeah."

Okay, now is it possible to have a heart attack, brain shutdown and suffer a breakdown at the same time? Well, if not, I'm a medical marvel.

"Oh my god." I drop my bag onto the floor and stare at my locker.

By this point, you're probably wondering who Sora is. Well, lets just say its tricky. He's Sora's brother. Twin to be more exact and only 6 minutes older than Roxas.

And you're also probably wondering why I am reacting so badly to this news. It can't be that bad right? Well, WRONG!

That birthday, 2 years ago, when I knew I had fallen in love with Roxas, Sora said something to me. I had only known him 4 months but heck, I'd only know Roxas that long. When I was with Roxas, hanging out, Sora would be there too. We weren't friends to the extent Roxas and I were, but we got quite close and got along fairly well. Then on my birthday, Sora cornered me in my garden and confessed something to me.

He loved me.

Well, you can imagine my reaction. I was in love with Roxas who loved Namine who loved Roxas back whose brother was now proclaiming his love for me. And I had only just turned 16.

So it was a sticky situation that I didn't know how to get out of, not having a lost of past romantic experience and all that. So I just told Sora I didn't love him, I loved Roxas. BIG MISTAKE! So learn a lesson from this: Never tell a guy's brother that you don't love him, you love his brother. Make sense?

So, Sora feeling down and crushed by me, threatens to tell Roxas. That was something I didn't want to happen for obvious reasons. He was besotted with Namine as she was with him and I couldn't ruin that. So I asked him to keep quiet. He refused obviously, due to the fact I had kinda ripped out his heart and virtually ran over it with a steamroller.

But he didn't get the chance to tell Roxas anything. Their parents split a week later and Sora left to go to Fate with his father. Now he was back. And he had unfinished business he would probably want to finish.

I'm not even 18 yet!

"Kairi? You okay?" I was brought back to earth by Selphie who had just placed a hand on my shoulder.

"Oh god. What if he tells him? What the hell am I going to do?"

"Well, firstly, clam down because Roxas is coming this way. Second-"

"What?" I picked up my bag and threw my books in, slamming my locker shut.

"Kairi?" I spun around and come face to face with Roxas. "You okay?"

"Why didn't you tell me Sora was back?"

"I didn't think it really mattered."

"Well, it just would have been nice to know. I thought we were best friends."

"We are you idiot," Roxas laughed. God that laugh. Okay, stop there Kairi. You'll go off on one again. "Well, Sora's back and he's mentioned you a couple of times."

"Oh." I could feel nervousness creeping through my veins. "Anything else?"

"No, not really. He just asked how you were and if you were seeing anyone. To be honest, the way he kept asking questions, I kind of got the impression that he has a crush on you." And my stomach drops again. I look up at him but he refuses to meet my eye.

"Roxas?" He finally looks at me but doesn't smile. His face is serious and it worries me. "What is it?"

"Nothing." Then he turn's and heads off to Maths without me.

XxXxX

I eventually caught up with him and he acted as if nothing had happened. Which annoyed me greatly. I wanted to know what made him react the way he did when he said Sora might have a crush on me. Then it stuck me. Well, hit me in the middle of a very bad headache. And I realised at the same time that I can be very slow.

Did Roxas fancy me?

Part of me said yes but part of me dismissed it. He didn't like his brother much so he could have just had a bad taste in his mouth. But maybe he didn't like the idea of Sora crushing on me because he was. But he always seemed so in love with Namine, so why would he crush on me?

God, men can be so complicated sometimes. So can life for that matter. There should really be a book about all this.

And what's the cause of this current headache? SORA! Why did he come back? He was hell bent on telling Roxas last time so what if he hasn't changed?

Crap.

What if he still loves me?

XxXxX

"There wont be anything to worry about Kairi. Sora's been gone or nearly 2 years so I'm sure he'll have forgotten or got over you."

"I appreciate the fact you're trying to help me Selphie, but I'm not in the mood."

"Why not?"

"I'm just not." I moved the meat loaf around the plate with my fork. Who in their right mind would eat meatloaf? The only reason I got it was because I was too late for pizza.

"Well, your mood is most certainly going to get worse."

"Now why would that be Selphie? Because as far as I can figure, nothing can get be more worse than loving your sisters boyfriend and him not loving you back."

"Well, I'd disagree. Here comes your worst nightmare." I turned and groaned. Sora strutted over, a grin on the face, and he sat next to me. This wasn't how I imagined my Monday going.

"What do you want Sora?"

"Well, that's not how you should greet a friend after 2 years of no contact."

"There was a reason for that," I muttered.

"What?"

"Nothing." Sora raised an eyebrow.

"Anyway, how have you been?" It was my turn to raise an eyebrow. Had he just asked me, the girl who trod all over his heart, how SHE was doing?

"Erm…I'm okay thanks. You?"

"I'm alright. How's the university hunt going?" Okay, parallel universe?

"Alright. I've applied to a few but I haven't heard anything yet. It should be any day now. What about you? Are you applying for Avalon?"

"Nah. I had enough of living up near there with my dad. I'm thinking of applying for somewhere around here. Maybe Northern Destiny University." Silence. I don't know what to think. I thought he would still hate me. "So," he said in a whisper, leaning closer to me, "Do you still love Roxas?"

I knew it was too good to last.

"Why? It isn't any of your business."

"I think you'll find it is. One, he's my brother who is seeing your sister in case you have forgotten. Two, you refused to love me because you loved him. And three, I'm a nosey person." I rolled my eyes.

"Well one, I know he is dating Namine and he's your brother. Two, for the millionth time, I'm sorry I didn't feel the same way but you cant help who you fall in love with. And three, your last reason is stupid. If you're nosy you must be a gossiper, so that's less of a reason to tell you."

"So you're still in love with him then?" I stayed silent. "Fine." He stood up and looked at me. "And you're right. You can't help who you fall in love with." Then he walked off, leaving me to ponder. Selphie looked at me and took her headphones out.

"Well?"

"I…I think he still loves me." Selphie's eyes widened and it went silent between us.

"Bugger me." I raised an eyebrow at Selphie.

"You need to stop watching 'Titanic'."

"What are you going to do?"

"I don't know. I have to pray that Sora doesn't tell Roxas."

"Well, you could always beat Sora to it." I look at Selphie who is putting her headphones back in.

I hate it when Selphie's right. It always means trouble for me.
