sum: in the end, all i remember is the words we didn't say.

. a couple of oneshot tied together - riku x sora) .

CHaP 10 : RiVaLS

Neither was sure when the fighting started, but Riku was sure it was when they were at that

(knife-edge)

time between 11 and 13, when so much is unsure. Riku started it, saying something

(jealous and pissed)

about Sora and Kiari, cause he was mad she'd stolen so much

(of his)

time they were supposed to

(always)

have together, alone. Sora retaliated,

(tearful and mad)

with words so similair they could be eithers, 'cause he was so

(hurt)

angry that Riku would

(ever)

think he could. They fell towards each other, all fists and fighting. And no one, not even

(especially not)

Kairi could pull them apart. They fought alot then, angry and jealous

(and sad and unsure)

as their bodies grew without their feelings getting the chance too. They stayed

(very-best)

friends, but became rivals. The three of them, without Kairi even knowing

(the real reason)

why. Through the fighting and the growling

(and the growing)

the boys didn't know what they wanted, and half the time, they were to exhasted with

(lying to everyone)

fighting and thinking, that they couldn't even find the energy to hold hands

(like they always had)

on the long walk home. Couldn't find the urge to kiss goodnight the one who

(they loved)

always meant the world to the other. So they drifted. Close, but suddenly

(to)

so far apart. Cut half-half, down the middle, by the only one to ever get close

(to ever break in)

enough to. And they couldn't yell and hate, 'cause she didn't even know it.

They stayed friends, but lost something

(faith)

when they got to old for fairy-tail happy endings, and they started to hear words like

(girlfriend-boyfriend)

'faggot'. All they knew was if Riku's dad growled it like that, and Kairi's

(pretend-wannabee)

friends all teased and snickered it they way they did, maybe it was something that

(hurt)

they couldn't handle being. And when they drifted, it hurt enough to stop either running back to

(the other)

a soft and safe place. Soon they were

(just)

very-best friends, with nothing to do but pretend they wanted Kairi,

(with all the want that they needed each other)

and she was to happy at the thought to see their sadness underneath.
