I know most of you have waited in worry and agony because of the "deathly" cliffhanger I left for ya in the last chapter. Well the wait is over cuz I am back with the next chapter. I have officially decided that this will have a sequel which has not been named yet but it will be awesome! Now, I left off with Sora dying and Riku FINALLY admitting he loved him. Like we didn't know that all along. So know I shall continue the story as such. Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I own nothing!

You're So Far Away

As Riku withdrew his lips, he held Sora close to him, and heard no heartbeat.

He choked on tears, "I'll miss you, Sora. You were my first and very best friend. And…and…I will always love you."

Riku stood up carrying Sora bridal style and headed for home. He couldn't predict the Kairi would react.

Wait, no! How could I think about Kairi at a time like this?! Sora just died!

The silver haired boy fell to his knees. Who am I kidding? I'm a terrible friend. Because of me, Sora took his own life. It's all my fault.

He looked at his unmoving friend, covered in blood, "I'm sorry."

He once again touched his lips with Sora's but more passionate. The faintest of noises was made which made Riku stop. He pulled back to see Sora's face. His eyes were open. He was alive.

Still having no strength to speak Sora looked at Riku saying one thing.

"Did you really mean that?" Riku read the faded look in the brunette's eyes.

Riku too shocked to say anything, looked away.

Sora's eyes were quickly filled with hurt, "You didn't mean it?" his eyes cried.

Riku continued to say nothing but suddenly hugged Sora as hard as he could. Relief flowed through his body, joyful tears emitted from his eyes.

Sora cleared his throat and spoke for the first time, "Riku…You're cr-crying? Why?"

Riku pulled apart from Sora, "Because…I though I lost you."

Sora's voice was hoarse but understandable, "Why would you care?"

Riku chuckled, "Sora, you're my world. Just promise me you'll never do that again. Okay?"

Sora nodded, smiling. Riku got up and they made their way to the nearest hospital.


When they reached the hospital, they checked Sora in and he was scheduled for surgery right away. (He still had a chunk of glass in him dammit.)

Until then, Sora was put into a room. Sora fell asleep almost immediately after their arrival. Riku stood beside the bed where the boy lay. He rubbed his thumb across his cheek. He truly did love him.

Sora was soon rolled into surgery while Riku had to wait in the waiting room.


After an hour, Riku noticed a nurse run through the doors. He hoped for good news. But it was far from good.

The nurse was panting, "Are…are you Riku?"

Riku looked at her weirdly, "Yes. Is Sora okay?"

The nurse shook her head, "I'm afraid not. While removing the shard we accidentally punctured a few blood vessels and he went into cardiac arrest. He lost about a quart of blood and is in critical condition. We put him on life support but I suggest you not go in. It's really painful to see."

Riku dropped his head, "What are the chances of him surviving all this?"

She hesitated, "I would say only a miracle will save this child."

Riku sighed, "May I see him?"

I'm ending it there! The shortest but most eventful chapter yet! I love it! Hahaha! Torturing Sora is so much fun. Hee hee hee! I love you Sora.

Sora: (blush) Do you love me enough to let me live?

Me: Um…I'm gonna hafta get back to you on that, my darling.

Sora: Ugh!

Riku: If you love him why do you torture him?

Me: Cuz I'm just evil like that and because love is pain, darling.

Riku: Well I…why did you call me darling?

Me: Wouldn't you like to know. I call a lot of people "darling".

Sora: It's true!

Me: Review my darlings if you want Sora to continue living.

Riku: I still don't like the fact you keep putting Sora's life in danger like that.

Me: Shut up, ho.

Riku: Ho? I liked darling better.

Me: Well to bad…ho.

Sora: (giggles) Riku's a ho.

Me: REVIEW!
