A/N: Hey everyone! This is Mooglechick with the third chapter of Namine's Sutures. Sorry it took so long and all, but I was completely unprepared. Some of you probably finished the second chapter before I was done reading the first one, but w/e. here's the third chap, hope you like it!


Roxas didn't know how he was going to compete with Riku. Driving to his silver haired rival's house, Roxas frowned. Too preoccupied with his own thoughts, Roxas beat his head on the steering wheel.

Honk

Honk

Honk

Namine, who was talking nonstop didn't notice; well not until the car swerved.

"Ahhhhh!" That was Roxas' girly scream.

"Roxas," Namine said brightly, "do that again!!!"

Namine grabbed the wheel and tried to steer them into another lane, while Roxas' hands were still attached to the wheel.

"Are you crazy?!" Roxas yelled trying to regain control over the wheel. Namine moved away from the wheel and pouted.

"If I'm so crazy why would you hang out with me?"

"Namine, you know I didn't mean it that way!" Roxas glanced at Namine and smirked at her childish expression. "Besides, crazy people have more fun," he finished, while momentarily smiling sweetly for Namine.

"M'not crazy, just… High on energy," Namine dropped the pouting act and stared out the window, "but I guess crazy people really do have more fun. Just look at Selphie!" Namine pumped her fists into the air, almost punching the roof of Roxas' car.

The two blonde's pulled into Riku's driveway. Roxas turned off the car and Namine ran to the front door. The two could hear yelling coming from the inside of Riku's house. There was a loud slam, and then Riku finally decided to answer the door. Namine, whom had grown impatient, was starting to pout all over again. Though that stopped as soon as the front door was opened.

One word, Riku.

He was wearing black cargos, stitched with white thread, and a black muscle shirt. Crossing his arms, Riku leaned against the doorframe. He smirked at Namine's expression, eyes glazed and mouth slightly open. Riku wasn't the only one to notice Namine's zombie like state. Roxas looked back and forth between the two. He knew this was going to happen! Everyone knew Riku was hot. Even Riku himself knew! If this went how Riku expected, Namine would be his! This is not what Roxas planned on though.

"Hey Riku, what was all that noise Nami and I heard earlier?" Namine finally snapped out of her daze and wiped at her mouth for drool that might have escaped her mouth.

"Oh yea, what was that Riku?"

"That was just Sora, being girly again," Riku said while pushing himself off the doorframe. "He just can't take a joke"

Roxas frowned yet again. Everyone also knew that Sora was sensitive about his feminine features. Sure they all joked about it sometimes, but when Riku got started on it he would go too far. Last time he made Sora cry.

"Roxas you should stay here while Namine go out, Sora's around here somewhere." Riku placed an arm around Namine and they headed to Riku's car parked on the curb.

"Later Roxas!" Namine chimed.

How was he to compete with Riku if he didn't really know what he was going up against?


20 minutes earlier

Sora wandered into Riku's room, and flopped onto the older boy's bed. Riku was staring aimlessly at his own reflection in the mirror across from his bed. Sora, now holding a fluffy pillow, watched Riku reach for a brush.

"Hey Riku?"

"Yeah?"

"Why are you so girly?" Riku stopped brushing his hair and looked at Sora's reflection in the mirror, and threw him an icy glare. Studying the brunette's tiny form Riku answered.

"What makes you think I'm girly," Riku said, still glaring at his younger friend. Sora looked around a bit and shifted from side to side.

"Uh… I dunno, your hair is so long, it's even longer than Kairi's." Sora bit his lower lip thinking that he shouldn't have said anything at all. Riku frowned and turned around completely so that he was facing Sora directly.

"Sora, if anyone in this room is girly it's you," Riku scoffed. Sora's eyes widened in shock. 'He acts like this is the first time anyone's called him girly,' Riku thought.

"What!?" Apparently Sora didn't think that his small body, soft features, and high pitched whines were girly. Riku on the other hand knew they were girly. Kairi was even jealous of his super long and natural eyelashes.

"Oh come on Sora, you look just like a girl, only your hair sticks up in every direction!"

"I am not a girl!"

"You sure do look and act like one!" By this point Sora's eyes were watery, and the tears were about to fall.

"You're such a jerk Riku!" Sora wailed, jumping off of the bed and running into the hall bathroom. He slammed the door to help make his point.

Riku sighed and turned back to the mirror. Just because Sora had trouble accepting his body didn't mean that Riku had to go chasing after him. Sora's problem was Sora's problem, not Riku's. He was about to pick up the brush again when the doorbell rang.

Ding

DingDingDingDing

DingDing

Yup, that was Namine, always in a hurry. Always ringing a person's doorbell over and over again without giving them a chance to say I'm coming. Oh well, that's one of the things Riku liked about his blonde friend. She never waited for anyone.


Back to Namine and Riku

"Hey Riku?"

"Yes Namine?"

"Why are we at Olive Garden?" Riku sighed, wasn't this where she said she wanted to go?

"Namine, you said you wanted to go to Olive Garden" Namine looked at Riku like he had just grown two extra heads.

"Riku why would I want to go to Olive Garden if I'm supposed to spending time with you? Didn't you know that Selphie works here?" As if she were making perfect sense, Namine raised an eyebrow waiting for Riku's response.

"Namine!" Riku yelled, "You just told me five minutes ago that you hadn't seen Selphie and that you'd castrate me if I didn't take you to Olive Garden." And if things couldn't get any worse for Riku, their waitress showed up.

"Hi I'm Selphie, what can I do to make your life hell?"

"I'm sorry I didn't catch that," Riku said turning toward Selphie with his already less than happy face on. Selphie grinned and leaned towards Namine.

"Oh I didn't say anything, Ri ku." Yes this was the end. If Riku made it through this day, he would be forever grateful to god.


After 30 broken dishes, three liters of Mountain Dew, sixty-five dollars out of Riku's wallet, and a freeloading Selphie in the back of Riku's car, the three, who were now banned from every Olive Garden in the western hemisphere, made their way back to Riku's house.


A/N: So what did you think? I'm not really sure how I felt about it. So if you didn't like it, review and tell me. If you did like it, then hey I did something right?!! Go moogle!!
