Sora x Riku!
.
'Thoughts!' From anyone really.
.
.
Walking to school was agonizing for Sora, because he was exhausted from being up all night due to Riku's odd behavior. Sora was still getting shivers from his kindness, was that really Riku last night? Couldn't be, right?
'I'm going to try and avoid him today,' Sora thought, 'Riku is seriously freaking me out, but if I avoid him he'll find me and yell at me, or worse, punch me.' As Sora pondered he didn't see the figure from behind stepping closer to him.
Sora yelped when he felt an arm wrapped around his waist, and then he was pressed against a warm body besides him. Swiftly twirling his head, Sora mentally groaned when he saw it was no other than Riku. 'Too close!'
"Hey Sora," Riku grinned, tightening his hold on Sora while both continuing walking. 'His hand is near my waistline...' Sora gulped, trying his best to remain calm.
"Morning... Riku." Sora uttered out as he gazed at the side where Riku's hand currently was, and noticed it was going lower and lower. Sora felt violated, even though they're supposed to be a couple he knew full well that this was a nothing but a mistake, wrong person. Riku's actions are only making Sora feel uncomfortable.
"Riku? I need to tell you something?" Swiftly, pulling away so he has an excuse to get at least a few feet away from Riku. Also Sora can tell him the truth now, better late than ever. He thought long and hard on the consequences of what could happen, Sora didn't care as longest Riku would stop touching and grabbing him.
"What is it?" Riku huffed, slightly irritated that Sora moved away from him. No one would dare do that to him, yet this boy in front of him did. Crossing his arms as he impatiently waited for Sora to finish.
Riku's glare wasn't helping Sora, who was trying so very hard to find the right words to say, but nothing was coming out. His mouth opened then closed again, he had no clue how to say it! Sora rehearsed in his mind so many times but everything was blanked now. Great.
"Can you hurry up?" Riku rolled his eyes.
Sora's head went down in defeat. "Can we eat lunch together?" was the only thing he could think of. 'Why did I say that?!' Sora thought, shouting. 'Out of all the things. That's all I could come up with?!'
Riku made a bored expression, seemingly uninterested by Sora's request. "I guess," he replied, trying to grab Sora again. Sora stepped back as he saw what Riku intended to do. "Darn! Those pesky flies!" he nervously chuckled, waving his arms around and stepping back, far from Riku.
"I don't see any flies." Riku's eyebrow twitched, anger was starting to boil within. Believe it or not, Riku was short tempered, especially when things wouldn't go his way, like now.
"They must be very fast," Sora scratched his brown spikes.
Riku smirked. "You know what else is fast?" Sora blinked, confusion written across his face.
"What else-" Sora stopped at the moment when Riku seized his left arm, and pulled him towards him in one quick motion. His face hitting against Riku's collarbone, clumsily stumbling onto him.
Sora opened his eyes, no doubt blushing bright red right now as he realized he was once again pressed against Riku. This time not side by side.
Shifting his head Sora glanced up and noticed that Riku was staring right at him with his aqua eyes. Sora never realized that they were bluish with a hint of green before, his eyes were actually beautiful. They shimmered more when the sun hit the right angle on his orbs, like what it was doing not. Wait- Sora shook his head, what was he thinking?!
Exactly as Sora was about move back, Riku leaned down to plant him a rough kiss. No love was intended, no sparks or fireworks were made; this kiss was nothing like Sora hoped for like he imagine it would be... nothing like in love novels, romantic movies, or real-life relationships he seen. No. This kiss was forced and emotionless.
Sora tried his hardest to pry away, but Riku was making it difficult as he snaked his arms around him. To bring Sora closer so he wouldn't escape this time.
Riku was not the person he liked and the one person he dislike. Even though Sora was a forgiving and understanding person, Riku has yet to apologize to everything he has done and put him through. There is no way Sora would let it slide; he's been through hell for two years because of Riku.
"Disgusting! Get a room," Axel scoffed, walking alongside Roxas and Vanitas, who were also both awkward at seeing them. Vanitas didn't even glance towards Sora, still embarrassed by the kiss incident. Eww.
Pulling away, much to Sora's relief, Riku narrowed his eyes. "Nice seeing you too, Axel," he greeted with a hint of sarcasm. Why did he have to show up?
Roxas noticed that Sora was not close to Riku. He needed to know the truth. If the confession was a mistake? To Roxas it appeared so...
"Hey Riku, you mind if I talked to Sora?" Roxas asked.
"About what?" Riku inquired.
"Homework."
Riku shrugged, "Sure." Sora mentally smiled, he was saved. He wasn't afraid of Roxas, at least not anymore after learning that he cares and feels remorse about everything. Although, Sora wondered what Roxas wanted to talk about? Was it really homework?
"C'mon Sora, let's get a head start on walking so we don't bored them to death." Roxas pushed him forward to get him started.
Sora took a glimpse of Roxas, then smiled as he followed his lead. "What do you want to talk about? Math, Chemistry, English, Geography?" The guys in the back groaned as they were about to hear boring shit.
"Can you guys walk further so we don't have to hear you?!" Vanitas barked, covering his ears. "I hear this bullshit in school already."
Roxas smirked and walked farther until he was at least three meters away from them. Now, they won't be in hearing range and Riku wouldn't listen to anything they talk about. Doubt he would listen to what was supposed to be homework when in reality it wasn't.
"Sora, I need you to only whisper," Roxas requested, whispering. "I'm going to take a wild guess and say that the confession wasn't meant for Riku, was it?" He folded his arms.
Shaking his head, "No! It was meant for someone else. You have to help me get out of this! I can't take it, but I'm too scared to tell Riku... I don't know what to do." Sora put his hands on his face in defeat.
'Knew it.' "I can't really help you there. Riku made it perfectly clear that you're his." 'At least until he gets bored with you,' Roxas thought.
"But I don't want to be his!" Sora whispered loudly, which caused Roxas to shush him.
"Shoosh! Whisper quietly."
"I should switch schools. Maybe if I beg hard enough my mom would let me," Sora declared, only to receive a solemn expression from Roxas. "Who am I kidding that will never happen!? I mind as well jump off a cliff!"
Roxas sighed. "I don't know what to tell you... except just be nice to him, maybe he'll be nice back to you. If you avoid him then yeah he'll be pissed."
"How can I be nice to him when he has been an asshole to me?!" Sora exclaimed, quietly, slightly scowling.
"You been nice to me," Roxas countered. "And I haven't exactly treated you fair either."
Sora remained silence, Roxas made a good point. There has been times when Roxas had tackled and head locked him in the past. So, why doesn't Sora hate him? Yet, Roxas was the only gang member that didn't hurt him as much as the others did, and recently has been helping Sora out. Roxas didn't have to but he did. Sora knew deep down that Roxas felt horrible about his actions.
"But, you're not like them." Sora stated.
Roxas glanced back and saw the other guys talking to each other as they laughed. "Maybe not, but I like being with them. They make me feel like a somebody," he smiled melancholy. "Vanitas and Riku are the best friends I could ever ask for."
Sora didn't understand anything anymore.
"Trust me Sora, if you warm up to Riku I guarantee he'll do the same." Sora cringed when Roxas looked at him as he gave advice. "Form a friendship with Riku then tell him the truth, at least he won't harm you if he's your friend. I think." Roxas tried his best to give Sora advice.
"You're kidding, right?" Sora gulped. Roxas turn his head. "But, Riku isn't even nice to Axel and Saix?! He'd threatened them before! Aren't they friends?" he inquired.
"We're a gang, Sora. Not all of us get along with each other. I only get along with Riku and Vanitas because we go way back, the others fucking get on my nerves." Roxas huffed; just by thinking about the other three gang members was pissing him off.
Sora nodded, understanding. He thought the gang got along with one another. Guess he was wrong.
"Yeah. I'll try, maybe he'll understand if we're friends. But, what do I do when he tries to kiss me!? I hate it when he touches me." Sora shivered just by thinking about it.
"I'm not helping you there," Roxas answered bluntly. "That's out of my element."
Groaning, "I'm doomed..."
Roxas placed his hand on Sora's shoulder, "Just try your best to be his friend." With that being said they arrived on campus. "That's the easiest way I can think of." He whispered.
Sora also agreed with Roxas, there's no way Riku would pummeled him if their friends. Although, if he were to tell Riku right now, a beating were to happened. Sora was defiantly going with Roxas' plan.
"You're right! Thank you, Roxas," Sora smiled brightly. He stopped whispering since their conversation was pretty much over.
Riku and the others arrived not too far behind, and he was not amused by what he saw. Sora was smiling happily with Roxas... Something that Sora hasn't done to Riku. 'He never smiled at me like that before.'
Gritting his teeth, Riku marched towards them, grabbing Sora's arm. "Let's go to my locker, Sora. See you later guys."
Roxas didn't have a chance to say anything back as he watched both teens quickly entering school. "What's up with him?" Vanitas asked as he stood beside Roxas.
"No clue." Roxas shortly replied, shrugging his shoulders.
"So, can you tell me what was yesterday about? My ribs still fucking hurt you know," Vanitas rubbed his side to prove his point. Yesterday when Vanitas was about to mention Namine to Sora in front of Riku, Roxas gave him a strong nudge to his ribs. After a pain like that he has the right to know what was all that about.
"We have a lot to talk about," Roxas put his arm around Vanitas' neck and began telling him everything as they headed to the back of the school. "Later, Axel!" Both shouted, forgetting about him.
Axel was the only one left behind, watching Roxas and Vanitas leave before glaring back to the direction where Riku and Sora went. He clenched his hands into fists, he was clearly angry.
"Let's see how long you can last, Sora." Axel chuckled cold-heartedly, popping his knuckles.
Author's Notes... Hope you enjoyed the chapter! I really like how this story is going. Also, yeah some members don't usually get along, my brother was in a gang and constantly argued and fought with this one annoying guy. I hated him too...
Let me point out who don't get along. Saix doesn't get along with Roxas, Seifer, Riku; strangely he gets along with Vanitas. Seifer doesn't get along with Roxas, Axel, Vanitas. Axel only gets along with Roxas and Saix. Vanitas doesn't get along with Seifer and Axel. Riku only gets along with Vanitas and Roxas. Same goes with Roxas; only Riku and Vanitas. Hope I didn't confused anyone. That's how gangs are sometimes. Weird. Even though they argue, they have to put up with it.
Let me know what you think! And if any ideas please share or make suggestions! I sometimes take them into considerations, if I hadn't already thought of the idea though.
Read and Review Please!... I'll go faster, try
