Me: OMG you can marry characters online! I call Roxas…
Riku: I hate you
Me: why?
Riku: First, you make me say the disclaimer and then you shoo me in the ass… my wife is NOT happy…
Me: If I remember correctly, Cid shot you in the ass
Riku: but you made him do it
Me: you shall bow to the power of my typing skills
Riku" twitch Nexlei does not own any of the Kingdom Hearts games.
Me: Oh and to the Reviewers, I would like to remind you that I have NOTHING against Goths… I was not making fun of Lulu, as I said in the first chapter. Oh and I am happy that people think it is funny sometimes when I'm typing this I think to myself am I being funny… or do I sound like a psychotic maniac…
Swimming
It all started out as an average day at Camp Highwind. It was warm and sunny yet again and the atmosphere was cheery. Sora had just woken up about a half an hour ago and had hastily gotten ready in another attempt to avoid his "friend" Sephiroth. Unfortunately Sora had a conscience. Yes a conscience that annoying cricket that is always sitting on your shoulder, that annoying voice that never shuts up (at least in Sora's case) and generally the thing that everyone hates because it forces them to do the right thing. Well his conscience was telling him that he could not leave his poor wounded friend alone in the cabin with the psychos that they were rooming with. So Sora sat as quietly on his bed as humanly possible wishing Riku would hurry and wake up.
But this was not the case. Instead of Riku beginning to stir he saw Sephiroth roll over as if he was about to wake up.
'Oh shit', Sora thought mimicking the words, that their councilor had spoken yesterday. Sephy was stirring more now. Sora felt his heart racing… she… I mean he was going to kill him. Sephy's eyes opened and he sat up. Sora who was panicking made a grab for his blanket to hide under it… damn you two-year-old instincts he thought not wanting to look like a complete moron who was hiding under his blanket. Sephiroth looked up at the fidgety Sora who was now twitching in places he did not know he could.
"You," he said coldly Sora looked around.
"Me," Sora said uncomfortably.
"I owe you evidence don't I," Sephy asked Sora. Sora vigorously shook his head. Before Sora's untimely death, someone marched into the cabin. It was a boy with red hair and a bag full of letters.
"I have a letter for Sephiroth," the boy announced mock happily. Sephiroth raised his hand like a little school girl err… boy. The boy walked over to him handed him the letter and left. Sephy looked at the letter.
"OH YAY A LETTER FROM MOTHER," Sephiroth screeched with delight. Sora just stared. He decided to try to get on Sephy's good side while he was obviously overjoyed.
"You got a letter from your mom wow your lucky," Sora could not think of anything else to say.
"Yes," he said cheerfully, hugging the letter.
"So where are you from?" Sora asked.
"JENOVA," He answered.
"I haven't heard of that town where it is?" Sora asked freaked out at Sephy's enthusiasm at reading his mom's letter.
"She's MY MOM," Sephy told him clearing up any of Sora's misunderstandings.
"Yah…" Sora had not a clue what to say to THAT so he remained silent.
"I'm not going to hurt you today," Sora heard Sephiroth say looking up from his letter. Sora was happy with this statement.
"So you don't hate me?" Sora had to ask.
"No, I hate you… but not as much as I hate him," Sephy said pointing to Cloud, "My half brother" he added.
The rest of the morning ( hahaha I spelled it right) went better than Sora expected. AKA, he was not dead which is always a good thing. Eventually Riku woke up.
"Are you ok," Sora asked.
"Yah," Riku was feeling much better… or the nurse had put him on so many pain relievers that he could not remember that he had been shot in the butt. Either way.
The two of them left the cabin to go and grab breakfast before heading out to the lake for swimming. Sora was hoping to be able to spend some time with Kairi today assuming that Riku doesn't get shot in this chapter again (which he won't or else another angry mob of fan girls will attack the author twitch… they had pitch forks…).
M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M&M
Slephie had show tunes stuck in her head and she was having no trouble whatsoever letting everyone else in the cabin know. As it, turns out Slephie could not sing. Yes, she had one of those voices that made you want to huddle in the dark corner of the room in a fetal position.
So Kairi and Namine exited the cabin as soon as possible.
"Guess what," Namine announced as soon as they left the cabin.
"What?" Kairi asked.
"Sora has big feet," She announced happily. Random comments like this were a sign that Namine was in a wired spacey artist mood.
"That was random," Kairi added.
"No not really," Namine said.
"How so?"
"Well Lulu told me that if you know a boys shoe size and divide it by two and add one you get the size of their… thing," Namine told Kairi the last part especially quiet. The comment left Kairi flustered and wishing that she had not asked anything.
"Thanks for those lovely images," Kairi told her best friend. They were now approaching the dinning hall.
"FOOD," Namine shouted as soon as they were in the building, and she made a mad dash for the bacon while Kairi slowly walked over to Sora's table.
"Sora, Riku," She said.
"Hi Kairi," Sora and Riku said.
"How are you," Kairi asked Riku, he did not look so good yesterday.
"I'm better," Riku replied. Kairi smiled and took a seat next Sora.
"So you escaped Sephy again," She inquired.
"He said he wasn't going to hurt me… I don't know if I can believe him…" Sora told her with a slightly frightened look on his face. Kairi giggled and got up to go get some (lots) food. She was happy to see that today they had coffee… Kairi liked coffee (heh coffee). She took a cup and filled it, Kairi unlike the author did shenot go insane when she had coffee but it did wake her up… not that she was asleep; Slephie's singing had taken care of that. She headed back to the table with her food.
"Hey Riku, can you sue Cid?" Namine asked.
"No… the bastard made everyone sign a "he is not liable for anything form"," Grumbled Riku miserable, he obviously wanted to get Cid back.
"I wouldn't call him that around here… he is an ax murder," Namine said. At First Kairi had not believed a word of that but after yesterday she was beginning to believe it ever so slightly. Speak of the devil they heard a familiar beeping and everyone turned to see Cid standing with the microphone.
"I am going to do the safety rules in here today," he began, "Ok today as you know todayis the day we all go swimming… first Iwould like to remind you that if you can't swim, than DON'T go in the water" Everyone nodded eager to get the speech over with.
"At 12:30 their will be a picnic on the shore, enjoy your day," Cid finished.
"That was fast," Roxas, pointed out looking at Riku and knowing the exact reason that Cid wanted to rush through the safety rules.
"It's not my fault he shot me," Riku said. The group got up and started walking towards the lake. Kairi and Sora walking slightly behind everyone else.
"Hey look at them," Sora pointed at Roxas and Namine, Roxas had just asked her to hang out with him and she giggled and said sure.
"Aww their sooo cute," Kairi said. It was true they would make a good couple, Kairi thought. She would have to set them up… somehow. Soon they approached the lake. Kairi and Sora took off their cloths (they had their bathing suits on underneath you pervs… dose that make me a perv for thinking you would think that? Do I have a sick mind too? Nooooooooooooooo).
"Darn Roxas is hogging Namine," Kairi said to no one in particular.
"You could spend the day with me… if you don't mind…" Sora told her.
"Of course I don't," Kairi said. They both headed into the water.
"The water is so nice and cool," Kairi remarked. It felt great since it was around ninety degrees out.
"Yah," Sora said.
"So want to use a canoe?" Kairi asked.
"Sounded like fun," Sora said, and they headed towards the canoes. Sora got on first and then held Kairi's hand to help her on, and he began rowing towards the center of the lake.
"Isn't it pretty?" Kairi asked looking at the shimmering water.
"Yah, I love the water, like lakes, even though I would rather be at an ocean," Sora said.
"My house is right on the ocean maybe you could come sometime," Kairi said.
"That would be cool," Sora, said, looking at Kairi, he couldn't keep his eyes off of her, no not in the perverted way that everyone is thinking but he just thought she was just so pretty…
"So what music do you like?" Kairi asked.
"Metal is my favorite in general" Sora said, "what about you".
"I like almost anything," She replied.
"Why did you come to camp?" Sora asked.
"You know me and Namine are best friends, well she moved away and this summer we decided that we HAD to spend time together so we came to this camp," Kairi told him.
"I can tell she is spending lots of time with you," Sora said hinting towards the shore where Roxas was tickling Namine.
"Yah but she usually isn't like this she doesn't like most boys," Kairi said.
"We need to set those two up," Sora said.
"Hey have you ever noticed how much you and Roxas look alike?" Kairi asked.
"No, the only thing that's the same is our eyes," Sora said, "I don't know why people say that".
"Maybe because your eyes stand out so much that it is what most people notice," Kairi said.
"What do you mean stand out?"
"They are the deepest blue that I have ever seen they remind me of the ocean, their so deep…" Kairi said dreamily but after three seconds, she kicked herself for going of on a fan girl like rant about his eyes. But everything she said she had meant.
"Either you're a poet or you're madly in love with me," Sora joked and Kairi turned red.
"H- Hey I think it's time for lunch," Kairi said pointing at the people far away on the beach eating on picnic blankets. Sora looked that way and agreed. Yes, Kairi thought she had changed the subject. She did not want Sora to know that she liked him just yet… if ever.
They rowed back to shore and Sora helped Kairi out of the boat. Roxas beckoned Sora and Kairi to sit with him and Namine. He leaned over and whispered in Sora's ear.
"Have fun making out with Kairi," He said smirking a Riku smirk. Sora turned red and his face felt really hot.
"Whatchya talking about?" Namine asked.
"NOTHING" Sora shouted so the entire camp could hear, he looked over and saw Sephiroth glaring at him as if to say WTF. He did not like the attention. Sora continued to scarf down his food silently.
Kairi and Sora spent the rest of the day with Roxas and Namine. Every once in awhile Namine would randomly say feet and it would result in the two giggling uncontrollably while the boys would just stare at them blankly wondering what the heck they had been smoking. Soon it was sunset dinner would be eaten outside too. But this time Roxas and Namine had gone off to do something and it left Sora and Kairi alone.
As soon as they got food Sora ate it like he had been starving. And Kairi just laughed at him.
"So you never told me why you came… you don't seem like the type of person who likes camping?" Kairi asked.
"My mom forced me to come for fear that my ass would be permantly stuck on the couch, from playing video games," Sora laughed.
"So you didn't want to come?" Kairi asked.
"After the last time I went to camp no," Sora shivered remembering the horrors of the Boy Scout camp.
"It couldn't have been that bad," Kairi, laughed, Sora ashoock his head.
"They made me sing songs… Kairi promise me that you will never ever go to Boy Scout camp"
"Do I look like I'm eligible?" Kairi asked… She was a girl after all.
"Well those plastic surgeons can work miracles these days…" Kairi pushed Sora jokingly.
"Thanks Sora I am so happy that you think I am going to get a sex change," Kairi laughed
"Any time," Sora joked. They both stopped and looked into each other's eyes, as if being pulled together by some magnetic force their faces drifted closer and closer…
"Hiya guys," Slephie said as energetic as always. Interrupting what would have been Sora and Kairi's first kiss. Kairi did not say anything. She was too in shock. She had almost kissed Sora… she had only known him for three days… well four but whatever. But he was so… she could not really describe it but she really liked whatever the feeling was. But one thing was for sure she did not want to rush things. She was completely spaced out the entire night. Sora seemed a little shaky too. Due to his misfortune, Riku had witnessed the whole event. Sora would be in for an interesting conversation the next morning.
a/n ok I suck at fluff. I think the next chapter will be rock climbing. Special thanks to Lehx yay. And I mentioned Cloud how could I have forgotten him? Whatever. See ya.
