AN:)) Hey guys! I'm so sorry for the long update again! I've been getting a little writer's block, but I'm trying to work through it. I've also been working on a new story. It too is a Sokai, I'm trying to write it all right now so that I can update regularly on it. Then I'm working on a Final Fantasy X one too. I won't be posting either of them until I've finished this one though! I will finish! We're actually getting fairly close to the end of this one. So with out further ramblings, I give you the latest chapter+X+ Livvy +X+

"Limp"

A faint smile played on Sora's features as he listened to Kairi's soft whisper. Never in his life did he think Kairi would kiss him. To be honest, he never thought he really wanted it before, but now it felt amazing. He brushed a soft hand across her cheek and watched as her eyes momentarily fluttered closed once more.

So many questions were running through his mind: Did this mean Kairi had feelings for him too? How long had she had them? What would happen now? But she beat him to it.

"Sora? Did you mean that? I mean, did you mean…to…" she trailed off in embarrassment.

"Yes." He said, chuckling quietly at her nervousness.

"Good, because… I did too." She said trying to regain her composure.

Suddenly, a loud ring emitted from Kairi's cell phone causing their fragile moment to be shattered. She reached into her pocket and pulled out the ringing mobile.

She didn't recognize the number, but decided to answer it anyway.

"Hello?" she asked.

"Is-is this Kairi?" a woman stuttered from the other line. She sounded like she was crying.

"Yes, who is this?" Kairi asked, starting to get worried.

"I'm Siefer's mother." Siefer's mom? How'd she get my number? I didn't know whether you'd want to know or not, but I heard he'd come to see you…" the woman started to cry more heavily.

"Ma'am, are you ok?" Kairi asked worriedly.

"No, my-he, Siefer is-he-he's dead." Kairi's eyes went wide and she sat up hurriedly, however she quickly felt the throbbing return to her stomach and lay back down.

"Oh my god. How?" By now, Sora was thoroughly confused. He tried to get Kairi's attention, but she wasn't responding.

"He committed suicide just last night. I came home and he was hanging-from—we were too late. He was doing so well! He was getting better!" the woman burst into sobs.

"When is the wake?" she asked timidly, trying not to upset her more.

"It's in a week at the Church of the Saints. We'll be having a viewing from 6-8 p.m. Do you think you can come?"

"Yes, I'll be there. I am so sorry for your loss."

"Thank you Kairi, I'll-I'll see you there."

"Yes, goodbye" Kairi said as she set her phone on the floor.

"Kairi? Kairi, are you ok?" Sora asked, but the only response he got were the tears leaking from her eyes.

"Kairi, what happened?!" he persisted.

"Siefer's dead." She said quietly.

"Who's Seifer?" Sora asked.

"He's…he's a friend. He was depressed for a while and we thought he was getting better, but…Sora, he just committed suicide!" she cried. "How could he be so selfish?! Didn't he think of his mom? She's a wreck! They just come home and, oh god." She just lay there crying for a while.

When her sniffling subsided, she smiled bitter sweetly, "Sorry for crying so much. I didn't mean to freak you out." She apologized.

"Don't even think about it. You have every right to cry. Sorry I couldn't do anything." Sora said, feeling quite useless.

She looked him straight in the eyes, "You did everything by just waiting with me. Most people would just give up and go about their business."

"It was nothing." He said, his cheeks tinted just the slightest bit. How had their dynamics changed so fast? When he thought over everything that had happened in the last 24 hours, he was overwhelmed, and he was sure Kairi had it worse.

"I think we should get some sleep, you especially. You need your energy to heal up. Later you can call Namine and ask to stay at her house. Not that I mind having you over here, I just thought you might want to see her."

"How'd you know Namine and I were so close? How do you even know her that well?" Kairi asked, truly curious.

"Roxas is my friend, and he's constantly going on and on about her. I know things." Sora said, "Sometimes things I don't want to know…"

Kairi laughed, "Regardless, that's sweet. They are perfect…Which reminds me…I need to have a talk with her about something I saw them doing." She thought out loud.

"What?" now Sora's curiosity was sparked.

"Well… I saw them…and they were…MAKING OUT! You should have seen how red they were when they found out I was there. Though I'm surprised they noticed me at all."

"No way! Damn, he didn't even tell me." He said in disbelief.

"Well, they were probably pretty embarrassed. Just go easy on him." Kairi insisted.

"Alright, now I'm going to sleep, and you better too." Sora ordered.

"Yes mom…"

"Kairi!"

"I'm just kidding. Thanks Sora, really. You've done so much for me." Kairi said as she sniggled back into a comfortable position.

"Anytime." Sora replied, watching her from where he lay until she fell asleep.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

"They just came home and found him like that? That's horrible."

"I know, I'll fill you in more when I get there ok Namie?" Kairi asked over the phone.

"Yah, that's fine. Be safe."

"I'll try. Bye" Kairi hung up her cell phone.

"So you all set?" Sora asked. He had gotten up and changed while she was on the phone.

"Yah. Now just the blessed task of actually moving." Kairi said sarcastically as she attempted to sit up once more.

"Want some help?" he offered.

"No…ow god! Yes" Sora couldn't help but laugh. He grabbed her hands and hoisted her to her feet.

"Ow, ow, ow, ow. Damn it!" Kairi said as she held her stomach in pain.

"I'm sorry was that too fast?" he asked concerned again.

"No, it would have hurt anyway. I'm just glad it's over with." She said, walking towards the door, Sora following close behind.

When they reached the car, Sora opened the door for Kairi and she carefully sat down, trying not to hurt herself more. She hated being injured, she felt like a burden, unable to do what she wanted. Sora closed the door and climbed in his side before starting the car and driving to the house he now knew was Namine's.

"Thanks again for everything." Kairi said as she and Sora walked to the door.

"No problem. Hey if you need me, you know where I live." Sora said, smiling.

"Gotcha, I'll hold you to that too." She opened the door, knowing that Namine was probably upstairs waiting for her.

"Well…See ya." He said as he walked back down the stairs.

"Bye" she waved and slowly closed the door.

AN:)) She's finally out of harms way…well for the time being… Sorry again for the super long wait! Thanks for bearing with me! Please review+X+ Livvy +X+
