SO my cousin writes fanfiction. I took a peek, its not bad. She's about the same age I was when I started, so she has good prospects. XD Why is this relevant? Why, because it kicked me into updation, that's why. I've been reading on MediaMiner, away from temptation. XD
So. Without further ado..
Oh just come to expect short nowadays. I'm just a fail. Lol And btw, grab your barf bags, theres some Riku/Roxas in this one.
Coin Operated Boy…
And I'll never let him go,
And I'll never be alone…
Riku sighed in contentment from his place on the couch, contentedly wrapped in Roxas' arms as a movie played on the television screen. Sora had been gone for a week, and Riku was only now semi-used to the quiet. It doesn't have to be quiet when Roxas is over, Riku thought, trying to rationalize his behavior. Besides, I don't miss him. My house should be quiet. He sighed again as he tried to focus on the movie.
"Something's on your mind," Roxas observed, glancing down at Riku. It was not a question.
Riku didn't respond.
"Is it your roommate again? You did say you had a nasty fight…" Roxas commented.
"It's fine," Riku replied quickly. "Don't worry about it." He paused before he decided to continue. "I guess it just bothers me that he left on such a…sour note," he finished awkwardly.
"I wish I could make you feel better about this, but I'm rather partial to him being gone," Roxas said, tightening his hold, "we can be alone here without worry…" he grinned.
Riku smirked, pushing Sora out of his mind. "You know, I'm not really paying attention to this movie…" he looked up into Roxas' eyes and winced inwardly. I'm never going to be able to look into his eyes without seeing him, am I?
"Me neither," Roxas winked, "I can think of some other things that would hold my attention better…" He leaned down, capturing Riku's lips in a kiss. Riku's arms snaked around Roxas' waist while he closed the space between them, running his tongue over Roxas' lips. Roxas gasped inwardly before he twined his hands in Riku's silvery hair, squirming under Riku's ministrations.
"I have a big case tomorrow," Roxas murmured between kisses, shifting one of his hands to Riku's neck.
"You could always stay here for the night," Riku offered as one of his hands traveled up to rest on Roxas' chest.
"I could," Roxas allowed, "but then I think I'd have to take a shower here…I wouldn't be late if you helped me…"
Riku panicked at the blatant invitation. Visions of his time with Sora in his bathroom plagued his mind, and he pulled back, wincing. "Shit, I forgot that I have an interview tomorrow morning," he invented. Fuck, I'm a terrible liar.
Roxas' eyes narrowed, but didn't comment. "Alright, I should be getting home then." They stood, and Riku kissed him goodbye before shutting the door. He sat down on the sofa, putting his head in his hands.
It really is too quiet here, he thought, rubbing his temples in exasperation, What have I done?
-----------((fast forward))-------
The next morning, Riku rolled out of bed with a groan. The dark circles under his eyes betrayed his lack of sleep as he dressed for the day. As he walked through the silent house to fix breakfast, he sighed and grabbed an apple before heading for the door. I have to get out of here…
He slowly ambled down the street away from his building, attempting to distract his thoughts.
I don't miss him, I don't, Riku convinced himself as he subconsciously turned the street corner, I have a boyfriend who is kind, witty, damned sexy…
He paused in his stride, sighing deeply. And every time he looks at me I see nothing but shocked and betrayed blue eyes…
Riku looked up to see that he had automatically walked to the park. He strolled to the fountain, intent on keeping the memories of past journeys here at bay. His eyes roamed the park, before settling on a blonde and a brunette that looked distinctly familiar.
It's the couple I asked for a quarter the last time we came here, he recognized, watching them. The brunette, Leon, had a baby in a pink blanket bundled in his arms, while the blonde, Cloud, cooed over the child. Riku felt a new pain in his chest as the memories from that day washed over him.
There has to be a way to get him back…
---------((To Be Continued…))----------
I'm really no good at writing angst. Lol, I don't even like to READ angst, let alone write it. It's so short, and thats AFTER I added that random scene at the end too. lol. I predict two more chapters? Three if I lemon, but I don't know...
