Chapter 4 - It's Called the "Plopping Chair"
Riku POV
So early this morning I had gotten a call from Sora's mom, he was staying over at Kairi's house for the night and she had a business trip that she left for today. And her, being the type of mother that fretted over everything, asked for Sora to stay at my house since he was just at Kairi's… and also to keep me company. Did I mention that my dad had left a couple years ago and my mom often didn't come home for days? Yeah, so any company was nice. I had tried to call Sora this morning, but he didn't answer, so I went to Kairi's. He probably was still asleep…
When the door opened, there was a silence from all three of us as both Kairi and Sora began to blush. "R-Riku! It- It's-" Sora started , bolting right up, but Kairi finished for him, "It's not w-what it looks like!" Sora nodded. He just looked so damn cute like that… embarrassed to the inch of his life and half-naked. I just laughed, 'It's fine, come on, as long as you're not trying to give Sora a hand or blow job or something then…" I trailed off as the two looked away and turned even redder. "Oh… my… god. Seriously?" Kairi choked, I think she was going to cry… and Sora still wouldn't meet my eyes. I laughed, "Well, obviously you two didn't or else you would be able to play this off like you hadn't at all." Sora finally looked up, that red blush still burning strong. Kairi looked part fish the way that she kept opening her mouth.
I smiled at her, 'It's ok, Kai, just breathe. I came here to get Sora because his mom left an hour ago, and she wants him to stay over at my place until her trip is over." I handed the note over to Kairi so she could see I was telling the truth… I really don't' think she believed me. I pulled Sora up from the couch, tugging him along behind me as I marched up the stairs, "Come on, let's get you dressed, we can get your clothes on the way- I've got the key." I got to Kairi's room and noticed a shirt and a silk slip-on on the floor. I smirked when Sora turned red again. "Well… whatever motivates you." Sora trudged forwards, pulling on his shirt and pants, muttering loud enough for me to hear under his breath. "W-whatever, Riku…"
Sora POV
I could feel Riku's eyes on me as I dressed. It didn't really bother me much because we have dressed before in the other's presence… many times before, but what do you expect? We're best friends, and we have been for a long time. On the walk to my house, we made no contact but he kept messing with my house key. The awkward silence was making me crazy, and every time I looked out of the corner of my eye at him, he was doing the same. When we finally got to my house, he opened the door and gently pushed me through… his hand at the small of my back, and we walk up the stairs to my room- 3rd door to the left. Riku ploped down on a really old black beanbag.
So he literally does "plop," just to let you know.
I've had it since I was really little… and I actually slept on it more often than my own bed. And you want to know something else? Well… too bad. It's a person thing I don't want to share.
Riku POV
I laughed to myself when I sat down, remembering about this beanbag. When we were both really young, Sora would bring it over to my house as a sleeping bag… strange but true. And around the same time, he called the toilet the "beanbag." So he'd walk up the stairs saying, "Hold on- I have to use the beanbag." Why, you ask? Because he said that the toilet made the same noises at his beanbag… and he had a hard time pronouncing "toliet."
I watched Sora put all his things in a laundry basket because he ended up doing the laundry at my house, and I threw out my basket after my "pet cat" made it his litter box. Immediately after, I dropped the stray right back where I found him in the first place. He checked his room twice to make sure he didn't leave anything, and was murmuring to himself. Kind of like a mental checklist. I grinned as I stood up, Sora looked over at me curiously because he hadn't finished checking his things off yet. "I'm not leaving, Sora, just gonna use the beanbag real quick, 'kay?" It took him a second to realize what I said, but I was in the bathroom when he got it… "HEEEEEY! THAT'S NOT FUNNY RIKU!" He yelled at me as loud as he could, but I was too busy laughing on the floor, having just shut the door.
Sora POV
Oh, that was mean… and I could plainly hear him laughing from the bathroom… hard. I huffed as I dragged the basket from my room and set it in front of the bathroom door and waited. When Riku opened the door, just like I had planned, he totally tripped over the basket, landing right on his face.
Oh, it was perfect.
He growled as he stood but I couldn't stop laughing. "Serves you right, Riku!" I didn't hear him coming towards me and if that wasn't bad enough, I couldn't even move. I had such a huge cramp in my side from laughing so hard that I was glued to the floor… until Riku picked me up, that is. Then, I was flying down the stairs with my clothes… in my basket… and once again, Riku was the one laughing. And thankfully, I stopped right before I hit the door… I looked back and saw Riku grinning, holding on tightly to the corner of my basket.
And… he messed up my hair, too.
Yes, Two updates in ONE day, allll because I reached 7 reviews+ today! (7 is my favorite number), and also, simply because I love this chapter that much. So, let me hear your cries of hallelujah when I say... NO MORE KAIRI UNTIL CHAPTER 12!
For all of you who went forth, and are still reading this, thank you much! I didn't like the last chapter.(It actually took me a week to write all of it) And all of you receive magnetic kissing Riku and Sora plushies... and a Kairi doll that has a knife through her head, AND a big note pinned under it that reads "REJECTED". Yes, I would love to have all three... well... maaaybe not the Kairi one as much.
Ohhhhh! No matter how many times I read this, I still love it and laugh. Plain cuteness here. Review for an update! And no complaining, you SoraxRiku fans! Things are starting to turn, relationships have to grow, they don't usually just pop out of nowhere in real life! And look forward for some action between the two later on...
Eh? ... eh? I've got your attention now, don't I?
