Chapter 10
Everyone stood around in the room with their mouths dropped to the floor. Riku felt like a smart-ass because he knew about the new relationship before everyone else. Everyone kept staring at Sora and Kairi like they had just stripped naked in front of them and started having wild sex, thus making the two lovers feel a bit uncomfortable.
"Is it really such a big shock to all of you?" asked Kairi who broke the silence in the room.
"It's not that! We are just surprised that you get to date such a hot hunk and we are still single! This is so not fair!" Selphie always moaned about how good guys in Destiny Island don't exist, but Kairi found the greatest one of them all.
"Well, I guess that the right guy decided that doing nothing all summer was a bad idea. Now we get to be together all the time!" Kairi bragged about her relationship because she was proud to have Sora all to herself.
"Ironically, I'm the one who encouraged Sora to get a job...so you had better thank me, little man!" Riku smirked at his friend but Sora only rolled his eyes at the comment.
"Well, enough of this silence: it's creeping me out!" Aqua walked over to the stereo and started to play some music. It wasn't loud but made the environment bearable after the entire episode of awkwardness.
"PRESENT TIME!" Olette yelled and threw her hands up. She then rushed to get her present and placed it on the table that was in the centre of the room. Everyone else did the same and found a spot to place themselves down around the table. Kairi also placed a box on the table. Sora looked at it and realized it was the same box that she was smuggling into the house earlier today.
Something just snapped in Sora's head like a huge idea had presented itself in the form of an investigation.
"Now it all makes sense!" Sora snapped his fingers and his facial expression went from happy to surprise!
"I should have known something funny was going on when my alarm clock was set to go off at the wrong time! Kairi also tried to sneak her present past me and as soon as I entered her room she told me to get ready for a party! This was all planned quite well. Although, how did Kairi manage to set my alarm without waking me up."
Kairi giggled at her boyfriend and answered her boyfriend immediately.
"You are a really hard sleeper. I must have walked into your dresser and knocked my head on the way in and that didn't even cause you to move." Sora felt a little embarrassed at the moment but was still glad that his mistress set this all up just for him.
"Open my present first, would ya!" Olette sounded exited to have her present opened first and Sora didn't want to disappoint.
Olette handed a small gift package to Sora. It was blue and quite sparkly. Sora thought that he could use this to make a disco ball. He curiously looked inside and found a small box and a letter inside. He took the letter and opened it

Dear Sora
You're super hot and cute...thanks for giving us such a good time lately.
Hope you have plenty more b-days to come
Love
Olette

Sora smiled at her and took out the little box inside. He opened it to see that it was a brand new golden watch that sparkled when it hit the light. Sora was quite surprised: it must have cost a fortune, but Sora knew it would be rude to ask something like that. He simply walked over to her and gave her a "thank you" hug.
Naminé's present was next. Sora tore off the wrapping paper to reveal a small portrait of the beach with the sun setting in the distance.
"Wow, did you paint this?" Sora asked in amazement. She simply nodded with a light blush on her cheeks.
The next one was from Aqua and Selphie. Sora was excited to see what was waiting for him under all the neatly wrapped paper. Sora didn't hesitate to destroy the wrapping paper and throw it aside to display a DSLR camera with amazing pixels. Sora knew that the girls wanted him to take photos of himself and give it to them so that they can drool over him, but Sora couldn't help but smile at the idea.
He looked down to see that there was only one present left, Kairi's present. He gently lifted it off of the surface of the table and opened it. Inside was a necklace chain with a silver crown attached at the bottom. Sora looked at it in awe. It was perfect for him: his neck had been feeling lonely since he lost the last one while swimming in the sea. There was card inside as well.
It read:
Dear Sora
You are the king of my heart and every king deserves a crown. Thank you for all the happiness you have given me the past month.
I love you
Kairi
Sora slowly walked over to his beautiful girlfriend, took her hands in his and lifted her up from where she sat. He glared into her eyes and smiled his perfect loving smile at her. She had a faint of red on her cheeks when Sora moved his lips against hers to thank her for the gift. They hugged after the kiss and Sora snuck in a whisper to her ear
"You are my queen. I love you." Kairi dug her face into Sora's chest, not wanting to separate.
Kairi stole the necklace from the box and stood in front of her servant, signalling him to lean forward as she hung the chain around his neck. She stood one step back to look at him and was amazed to how wonderfully it fit him. She bit her lower lip: last time she scaled his body like this was when he was naked in front of her, ready to fill her with his love.
Everyone cheered for the birthday boy and went about themselves after. Selphie went to turn up the music and danced to the beat. Riku and Yuffie were chatting in a corner so that no one could hear them talking, but Sora knew that they weren't JUST chatting. Aqua, Naminé and Olette brought drinks for everyone and Sora only stood in the centre of the room, smiling at the wonders that his new friends have provided him. He was truly happy.
They danced, laughed and talked all night until they all passed out wherever they saw a cosy spot. The only ones left standing were aqua, Kairi and Sora. Sora looked around and saw Yuffie snuggling in the arms of a muscular Riku. Naminé and Selphie were on the couch fast asleep with drinking cups in their hands.
Olette had gone home for the night, leaving just three remaining survivors. Sora was getting a little tired seeing as he had a lot of fun tonight. Kairi was just about ready to pass out while standing but Aqua seemed relaxed without any trace of sleep in her eyes. All three looked at the room and thought of how wonderful the night had been. Kairi, clearly being the next to fall victim to the pleasures of sleep, yanked gently on Sora's shirt and rubbed her eye like an adorable little girl.
"Can we go to bed now, baby?" she said sheepishly.
Sora smiled at his one true love and picked her up in his arms where Kairi immediately fell into a deep sleep. Sora softly laughed at the princess in his arms and turned to Aqua.
"Where can I put her down? She's out like a candle." Sora asked.
Aqua gently smiled at the spiky brunet and said: "sure, there are quite a few rooms in the house. You should follow me and I'll take you to yours." Sora did as told with Aqua leading those upstairs.
She led them down the hall past a few doors and finally stopped at one of them. She looked over her shoulder back at the two lovers and grinned. She opened the door to reveal a beautiful room that looked like it was fit for royalty. It was not quite as radiant as Kairi's room but was fair enough. In the centre of the room was a large bed with some pretty bed lamps on the side of it. He looked around more to get in the entire area. There was a bathroom where a door lead, a walking closet and a TV mounted on the wall. Sora thought he had seen it all.
He walked over to the bed and gently tucked his girlfriend in for a night of sweet dreams. After that he turned to Aqua who was still standing in the doorway.
"Where do I sleep?" he asked but received no response.
Aqua smiled at him, grabbed the doorknob and started to walk out of the room with the door following her. Before she closed it completely, she peaked through the remaining crack and whispered:
"Good night you two love birds."
