CHAPTER THREE: FIGHT AGAIN
Later that evening, Roxas arrived at Destiny Islands. Roxas wasn't sure if Sora was still at the Island, (Sora told him all about his hometown) so he decided to look at the town instead.
While walking, Roxas thought about all the things that had happened between them. It really is my fault. Roxas told himself. Roxas was so deep in thought that he didn't noticed a guy running towards him. The guy hit him and they both fell on the ground.
"I-I'm sorry." Roxas said as he rubbed the back of his head.
"No, I should be the one who's sorry." The guy said. "I wasn't looking at to where I'm going. Here." The guy held his hand to Roxas and took it. Once Roxas was up, Roxas looked at guy and was shocked to see who it was.
"You're Riku… right?" Roxas asked. "Friend of Sora? Sora Strife?"
"Yes… And you are?" Riku examined Roxas and said, "Roxas?"
"Yup. How do you know my name?" He looked at him curiously.
"Sora told me pretty much everything about you."
"Everything?!" Roxas exclaimed.
"Hahaha… Don't worry. You and Sora are cool with me." Riku laughed again.
Roxas smiled but it faded away immediately. "I guess now you probably know why he came back." He sounded hurt.
"Don't worry, I'm sure you and Sora can fix this. Anyway, do you have a place to stay?" Riku asked.
"Not yet."
"Okay, how 'bout you stay with us at our apartment? There's an empty room next to ours." Riku said.
"By 'us' you mean you and Kairi, right?" Roxas asked.
"Yeah…"
"Hang on… Riku?"
Riku looked at Roxas, "Is Sora with you?"
"You worried 'bout him?"
Roxas nodded and Riku smiled.
Next Morning…
Sora, Riku and Kairi were having their breakfast when Riku asked Kairi to talk with him, privately. Riku went to the kitchen and Kairi followed.
"What's up?" Kairi asked, sitting at the kitchen counter.
"You know Roxas Leonhart, right?" Riku said looking at Kairi. He was right beside Kairi, leaning on the kitchen counter.
"Of course, he's Sora's boyfriend."
"Well… he's here." Riku stated.
"Really?" Kairi squealed. "Where is he?"
"Ssshhh… Keep it down, would you?" Riku said as he looked at the kitchen door. "He's in this building, right next to ours. Now listen… what I want you to do is…"
Kairi and Sora were then off to the beach. They were at the shore. Sora was building a sandcastle while Kairi was under a big umbrella.
"Hey Kairi, how come Riku's not here?" Sora said as he finished his sand castle.
"He just had little errands to do. But he'll be here." Kairi smiled.
Sora smiled back and went back to his sand castle. Suddenly, a pair of arms were around Sora.
"Ahh! Riku! Get your arms off me!" Sora pouted.
"Err… Sora? I'm right here." Riku patted Sora's shoulder. He was in front of Sora.
"Kairi?" Sora asked doubtfully.
"Oh shut up Sora!" Kairi shouted and hit Sora's head. "I don't have manly arms."
"Then who is this?" Sora said as he tried to looked at the person behind him.
"Me…" That one word sent shivers down Sora's body. Sora knew exactly who this person was. Sora removed the arms around him and stood up. He faced the guy and shouted, "Roxas! What are you doing here?!"
"I came here to see you." Roxas was still at the sand.
"Why?!"
"Because I want you back, Sor. I want you to come home. To our home." Roxas pleaded.
"What for?!" Sora asked, harshly.
"I need you, Sora." Roxas's voice broke. "Without you, my life's a complete disaster."
"Well live with it." Sora said bitterly. At this point, Kairi and Riku were at the end of the beach, away from the shore, maintaining a good distance away from the two.
Roxas tried to grab Sora's hand but Sora slapped his hand away. Roxas knelt in front of him and said, "Sora… please… come home…" Roxas's eyes began to puddle but he was strong enough to hold them back. "I'm sorry… I didn't mean to hurt you."
"Well you did!" Sora said as tears fell from his eyes.
Roxas stood up and hugged Sora but Sora just pushed him away. "If I come home to you then what? What will happen to me? Will you fight me again? Or… or better yet, how 'bout let me be attacked by thousand and thousands of heartless!" Sora exclaimed.
"Is that painful enough for you?" Sora sobbed.
"Sora… please." Roxas begged. "If you come home with me, I promise I'll be good now. If you snuggle in my arms all-day-long that's fine by me. Just come home." As he said this, the tears that Roxas were holding back fell.
Sora cried even more. He hated seeing Roxas like this. Sora wanted to say 'yes' but the pain inside him was too much for him to handle.
"I won't, Roxas! I'm happy here." He said as he wiped the tears staining his cheeks.
"If you're happy then why are you crying? Why did you cry with me?" Roxas stood up and moved closer to Sora. Sora was about to say something but Roxas cut him off. "Because you love me and I love you too… So much."
Sora was taken aback by what Roxas said. Come on Sora, you got to pull yourself together. I mean you can't just give up that easily. Sora told himself. "I said no Roxas! No means NO!" He said as he headed for Riku and Kairi.
"Stop following me!" Sora looked at Roxas.
"But Sora, I—" Roxas didn't got the chance to finish his sentence for Sora elbowed him in the stomach.
"Shut up already!" Sora shouted. "Will you just go and forget about me?"
"No…" Roxas muttered.
"Why not?!"
"Because I love you."
Sora pulled Roxas by the collar and shouted at him. "I DON'T CARE! I DON'T LOVE YOU, ROXAS! JUST GO ALREADY!" Sora let go off Roxas' shirt and pushed him to the ground. "Let's go guys…" He said to Riku and Kairi. With that, he stormed off.
Riku helped Roxas up. "I'm sorry…"
"Don't be. It's not your fault." Roxas tried to smile as he dusted off his pants and shirt.
"I have another idea…" Riku told Roxas and Kairi his idea and Roxas agreed with it.
At Riku and Kairi's apartment…
"Hey…" Kairi said cheerfully.
"Hey…" Sora said lamely. He was lying at the couch.
"I know what will cheer you up." Kairi sat at the end of the couch. "A sleepover at the clubhouse."
"Really?" Sora's face brightened. "It's still here?"
"Yup. Wanna go?"
"Of course!" Sora exclaimed.
Riku passed by and Kairi gave him a look which meant that their plan will be put into action.
