RikuxSora scene. Yoai

Chapter 3.

Friend or foe?

Sora walked worriedly towards Riku's house, he didn't know what to expect and he could already see the sandal wood of the second story. As he got closer he saw Riku in the window, the silver haired boy did not move but watched until Sora was just about to touch the door. He'd only knocked once and the door slowly opened, Riku stood there clad only in his tight black zip up tank and jeans. "uh Hi!" Sora said attempting to sound cheerful but squeaking a little, had the older boy not been mad at him he probably would have laughed. "Come in." Riku simply said stepping aside to let the younger boy inside. After closing the door Riku lead the way to his bed room, Sora looked around nervously, this was getting worse and worse "h-hey we're your brothers?" He questioned realizing that the house was empty "Kadaj had a race to win. Naturally Yazoo and Loz went to back him up."

"Shouldn't you be there too then?" Sora asked "Na, I told them that I had a conflict to settle and wished Kadaj good luck. Then they left." Riku said with a shrug as he opened his bed room door. "Really? Kadaj let you stay here without an argument? That's rare." Sora jumped onto Riku's bed and watched as Riku sat on the computer chair with his arms resting on the back of the chair, and his chin resting on his arms. "Well not exactly, we had a little sparing match before I was actually left alone." He said looking thoughtful. "Figures."

Riku suddenly turned all of his attention to Sora as if staring holes through his skull 'he looks like he going to eat me!' Sora thought uneasily "So, what was with the paopu fruit?" Riku finally asked, the brunette blinked "paopu fruit?"
"Don't be stupid Sora, the drawing on the wall of you and Kairi sharing a paopu fruit with each other."

"Oh that! We drew that when we were like six!"

"The paopu fruit wasn't in the picture before."

"What do you mean?"

"Look I'm asking you about it and trying to stay calm while honestly all I feel like doing is punching a wall, crying or beating the shit out of Kairi. And I obviously can't do any of that so will you please stop being difficult?"

"I'm not trying to be difficult; I drew the paopu fruit before our world was destroyed. I was fourteen Riku, I didn't know how I felt about you yet, I mean I've always admired you but that's all I thought it was until you disappeared. Until I found you again I thought I loved Kairi, and I did have a crush on her so that's why I drew it."

"And what about the other one?"

"Kairi must have drawn it while we were gone." Sora said looking down at his lap "It's just a drawing, Riku. I don't like her that way any more, I want to be with you."

Riku stared at the flustered boy, then he got off of the chair and lifted Sora's chin so that aqua eyes met sapphire ones. "Do you really mean that?"

"Of course I do."

"Then prove it." Riku whispered getting closer. Sora stared up into his eyes "how?" he whimpered "surrender your self to me, only me." Riku said as he captured Sora's lips in a passionate kiss.

The younger boy pulled him down to the bed, flipped it so that he was on top of the older boy pinning him down. "Just what do you think your doing?" Riku questioned as Sora unzipped his tank top. "I'm not as innocent and naïve as people think I am. I'm taking charge."

"Oh you are, are you?" Riku stared up with on eye brow raised "you better believe it." Sora whispered leaning down and kissing the silver haired boy. Riku grinned and decided he'd let Sora have his fun of being in control for a little while longer then he would turn the tables. No way was he going to be the uke of this relationship!

They kissed passionately and explored each other's bodies with their hands, loosing their shirts along the way, and then Sora continued lower paying attention to the pink nubs on the other boy's chest as his hand slid down to undo his own pants. The silver haired boy suddenly stopped him; Sora looked up at him confused "Riku??"

Riku let a shaky sigh in attempt to calm him self down then looked at Sora seriously

"Stop."

"Why?"

"Because if you continue then I won't be able to stop myself, I know it even if you beg I'm not sure if I can…I don't trust my body, not after everything I've been through. And I don't want to hurt you, not anymore." He whispered as he looked down, Sora touched his hand gently

"Who said I even wanted to stop?"

"Sora…"

Sora leaned closer slowly unzipping his pants as he brought their lips together, then leaned back slightly letting his pants slide off, he leaned against the pillows of Riku's bed completely nude. "I'm yours, Riku."

He leaned in and captured Sora's lips smiling into the kiss "I'm glad."

Sora smiled as well then gasped as Riku pushed a finger inside of him "uh, Riku…"

Riku waited until Sora got used to it before he put another one in stretching the boy further.

When he was sure that the boy was prepared he pulled away and began the search for where the lube had run off to. "Now where did that damn bottle go…" he cursed crawling off the bed. Sora looked curiously at his friend with flushed cheeks "Aha!" Riku suddenly cried

"Found it!" he grinned triumphantly holding the blue bottle up in air.

"goof…just hurry up!! I'm dying here!" Sora gasped out staring down at his erection. Riku smirked "So tell me Sora," he drawled walking closer

"Should I make it fast, or slow enough to drive you to insanity?"

"I honestly don't care, just please touch me before I go crazy." Sora whimpered

"Oh I'll touch you alright." Riku suddenly pinned Sora to the bed and tied his hands above his head with his studded belt. "In fact you won't be able to get me off of you." he whispered brining there lips together as he roughly grabbed the pole of flesh between the younger boys legs. While they were kissing Riku positioned himself between the younger boy's legs and roughly pushed in causing him to cry out. The silver haired boy let out a breath "you okay, Sora?"

Sora nodded "move."

He obliged and began to thrust steadily into the younger boy and soon the room was filled with cries from both boys. Riku's only thought was how lucky he was to finally have Sora, and with if his luck was a good as he hoped it was, his brothers won't walk in on them to ruin this perfect moment.

Riku blinked awake when he heard the front door slam and Kadaj call for him, he looked down to see Sora sleeping peacefully and smiled, he pried himself from his lover's grasp, quickly pulled on his pants and fastened his belt, "Riku!!" Kadaj yelled again "Hold your horses I'm coming!" Riku growled back and slung his tank top around his shoulders, zipping it up on his way down the stairs. When he got down stairs he found that his three brothers had bought Chinese food; lots of Chinese food, in fact he couldn't even see the table surface any more. "Wow, I'm guessing you won then huh?" he said with a smile "yep, 1st place." Kadaj said with little laugh "So come on little brother, lets celebrate." Kadaj said with a grin as he started for the table, "er- right, Sora's over. Care if he joins us?"

"Oho so the twerps' over huh?" Loz said with a mocking laugh "did little baby Riku, get lonely while we were away?" he added in an annoying baby voice. Riku grinned slyly "you could say that."

"Of course he can, Riku." Yazoo said with a knowing smile. Riku looked to Kadaj

"Is it okay with you? I mean it is your party." He asked, Kadaj smirked and shrugged

"Do what ever you want, that is one aspect in which I have no control over the decisions you make."

Riku glared slightly, but headed up the stairs. Loz looked back and fourth between his brothers "am I missing something?" he questioned stupidly "nothing important brother," Yazoo said still smiling. "Well I'm starved! Lets eat!" Kadaj said walking over to the table. Riku growled slightly as he walked towards his bed room door, 'damn Kadaj he has no control over any decisions I make, just because he's two years older then me and happens to be a born leader, I happen to like being in control too' Riku thought with a slight pout. But honestly he was overjoyed to be back under Kadaj's authority; he was home, with all three of his brothers and now he knew he wouldn't trade them for anything. He'd managed a year on his own with out his brothers and done just fine, but that was enough. Before he'd left Kadaj and he had had a fight of authority, Riku promised that he could take care of him self and would never come home again then ran off. But while hiding at the paopu tree he saw the door to darkness and was determined to keep both of his promises so he gave in to darkness. When he was in the World that Never Was he was sure that his brothers had forgotten about him and had moved on, however he was happily proven wrong when he and Sora returned to Destiny Islands. After their happy little reunion on the play islands, Kairi, Sora and Riku returned to the main island. Selphie attacked Kairi wanting to know where she'd been and how she got the boys back, Sora's mom and sister smothered him with kisses, and Riku was attacked by a hysteric Loz. It was good to know that his somewhat insensitive yet naïve older brother really did love him but he soon got a little annoyed with being squeezed to death while Loz sobbed on his shoulder. Thankfully Yazoo pried the extremely emotional man off their younger brother he smiled warmly at Riku then gave him a hug. Then it was Kadaj's turn, he walked up to Riku and just hugged him, he was shocked. Kadaj rarely showed any intimate emotion. It was clear that his brothers missed him a lot. It was kind of odd though how Kadaj was in charge and yet he was the second youngest. It went Loz, Yazoo, Kadaj, and then Riku, but it was probably because Yazoo was too nice to his brothers, and Loz was just too stupid. Kadaj was intelligent, strong and like Riku said earlier born to be a leader, so oddly enough when their mother died Kadaj stepped up to the plate and took care of all of them. With a smile Riku opened the door to his room, an entertaining sight greeted him. Sora was wrapped in the sheets like a cocoon, and so close to falling off of the bed all he would need to do was move slightly. With that thought Riku got an idea, he snuck up beside the snoring boy and pulled out a black feather from his night table drawer, and began to tickle the boy's nose. Finally Sora let out a violent sneeze, thus sneezing him self right off of the bed with a thud. He groaned and sat up holding his head, Riku quickly disposed of the feather as the boy looked drowsily around the room. "Riku?" Sora groaned still holding his head and peering at the silver haired boy though squinted eyes "Oh, your up. Well Kadaj won the race and they brought Chinese food for dinner so come on get dressed."

"That's nice, I'm going back to sleep now, save me some food will ya?" Sora yawned as he laid down on the floor "What? No Sora, come on get up."

"Incase you've forgotten the rather intense work out we just had about two hours ago, I'm tied and really sore, so just save me food" The younger boy groaned hiding under the covers

"You know, Kadaj bought some of those mochi bean cakes you're so fond of, but Loz loves them too and I don't think I can fight him for them alone. Looks like you miss out." Riku grinned and started to stand with the intention of leaving the room. Sora suddenly popped completely out of the covers now fully awake and giving Riku quite the view. "Well what are we waiting for!?!" Sora yelled, Riku grinned slyly "you to get dressed. Don't get me wrong the view is quite breath taking but I don't really want my brothers sharing it." He chuckled as Sora looked down and turned beat red "Gah!! Riku!!!" He yelped jumping behind the bed causing Riku to burst out laughing. Ten seconds later he popped back up fully dressed and laughed scratching his head "Yeah I'd prefer to keep that "view" away form your brothers. But you can have it when ever you want Riku." Sora laughed, Riku blushed slightly "well come on, the food and bean cakes await."

Three weeks went by quickly, Sora and Riku could not be happier with each other. They hadn't gotten up the courage to tell every one the true nature of their relationship yet, but they were getting closer to doing so. It was Thursday; after school Riku, Sora, Kairi and Sakura decided to meet for ice cream. "So Sora, what flavor are you gonna get?" Kairi questioned with a smile, Sora looked thoughtful then grinned and pointed to the chocolate and vanilla swirl from a few feet away Riku watched him fondly and smiled. He didn't notice that Sakura was talking to him "Helllo, earth to Riku, come in Riku." Sakura said waving a hand in front of him, then she snapped her fingers and he noticed her "Huh? Oh crap, I'm sorry Sakura were you talking to me?"

"Yes. But its okay, I was just asking if you wanted to sit there drooling and day dreaming or actually get up and get some ice cream." She said with a smile and a raised eyebrow. Riku laughed sheepishly and got up helping her up as well. After a long conversation between the four they decided to go home. Sakura and Kairi left together to Kairi's house and Riku and Sora went to the play island. Sora leaned on Riku's shoulder as the older boy stared at the ocean. "Hey Riku, can I talk to you about something?" Sora asked peering up at the boy's face who turned to him to show that he was listening "Well I had a really unsettling dream last night, I dreamt that you went back into darkness and this time there was nothing I could do to bring you back, you ran from me so I couldn't reach you and you just disappeared in what looked like a bunch of black flower petals." Sora looked really upset so Riku leaned down and kissed him "that's not going to happen, I'll never willingly return to darkness, why would I when I have my light?" He whispered nuzzling the younger boy's nose. "Yeah but-" The brunette still looked unsettled, so with a sigh Riku leaned toward the leaves of the paopu tree and picked a bright yellow fruit, then broke it in half handing one half to the younger boy. Who stared at him with surprise "a paopu fruit?"

"You know the legend, if two people share one their destinies become intertwined and they remain a part of each other lives-no matter what." Riku said with a sincere smile

"Yeah but that's just a legend isn't it?"

"Maybe. But it's worth a try right? This way if any thing happens to separate us then we'll always be able to find each other again." Riku smiled about to take a bite "wait." Sora said as he scooted closer "lets share it a different way."

"How do you mean?" Riku asked looking a little confused "Like this" Sora took a big bite then pulled the older boy to him and kissed him pushing a little of the sweet and sticky fruit into his mouth.

The Next day at school Riku stayed later to do some extra credit, he as he walked down the empty hall way he heard some thing "kuso." Sakura said as she dropped her back pack thus spilling all of its contents on to the tile floor. She picked up one book and stood; she turned sharply to get her bag but crashed directly into Riku's chest. He wrapped his arm around her waste to stop her from falling back to the floor "need help?" He asked with a grin, she blinked "Hi Riku." She said obviously shocked "what are you doing here so late Sakura?" he asked helping her pick up the fallen books and countless papers "I had to stay to finish my painting in the art room, you?"

"Extra credit for Ms. Hana's class."

"I didn't know you needed extra credit."

"Well I didn't really, I have an A in her class but I need an A+ if I'm gonna go to a good college, and my older brother will kill me if my report card isn't flawless." Riku said rolling his eyes.

Sakura laughed and picked up her now neatly packed bag "well, thank you." She said smiling as they walked together out of the front door, it was dusk and the islands were flooded with a red orange light. Sakura suddenly looked a little worried and Riku noticed "would you like me to walk you home?"

She looked at him with shock and what looked like, for a moment…hurt, but she quickly shook off the look and nodded quietly thanking him. The whole way to her house all they talked about was school and the teachers. Then they got to her front gate, the white fence and gate was laced with strange out of place flowers. Their vines and leaves looked black, their petals were a dark purple and the center of the flower was a vibrant yellow, so vibrant it almost seemed to glow. Though Riku was sure it was just the lighting so he peered closer "what kind of flowers are these? I've never seen anything like them." He said gently touching a petal

"Haven't you? You've seen them more then Sora has, you should recognize them right?"

Suddenly the flower blinked and jumped at him, with a yell Riku fell backwards, a number of the flowers wrapping themselves tightly around him. He stood before her tied up with the flowers "they're Heartless!?" Riku growled struggling; Sakura looked away sadly and nodded "they're called Belladonna."

"What is going on? We closed all of the doors." He growled trying harder to get away and glaring at her. "No matter how many doors you close, the heartless will always exist. They are beings of darkness, and with out darkness light cannot exist."

"What do you want with me?"

"I…have orders to capture you. I don't want to Riku, you have to believe me this is really hard. But I don't have a choice."

"Orders from who?! Why are you doing this?"

"I can't say any more. You'll soon find out the reason why. Riku, I'm so sorry." She flattened her hand toward him and black petals swirled around his feet making a black portal. "No! I won't go back into the darkness!!" He yelled struggling "Let me go! I promised Sora, I won't go back!!"

She looked away filled with guilt "Sakura! Why?!"

"I'm Sorry!" She stared to cry as Riku was almost completely absorbed in the hole, "Sakura!!!"

Then he was gone, she looked around the peaceful island no body noticed what had just happened. She looked away 'Alexis must have helped' she thought as she turned and went solemnly into her house. She entered the house staring at the ground but she knew that right in front of her stood a man with dark blue eyes, purplish gray hair that was worn in a long pony tale and a long black coat. "Well done my child, you've succeeded in capturing 'the weapon'. I am very proud of you." He said with a triumphant smirk, she looked up to him, her remorseful eyes no longer the color of coco powder but completely black. "Thank you…father."
