A/N: So I started this 100 Themes thing on LJ and I claimed the pairing Riku x Roxas. A friend of mine suggested that I post these up as one long-ass fic, so I decided to take her advice and see where it gets me. Hope yall enjoy

014 : Stars
Roxas sat outside on the sand, looking up at the stars. They were so high up, so out of reach and so large and so…free. They created pictures in the dark night sky, white splotches on a black blanket. He was so intrigued by them that he didn't notice another person walk up next to him until they plopped down, thus making Roxas jump. He looked at the intruder with a flat look.
Riku smiled. "You're up late."
Roxas scoffed, turning back to look at the sky before them. "Couldn't sleep."
A nod. "I see…so you're stargazing instead?" Riku asked as he handed Roxas a napkin full of chunks of fruit, which Roxas took absentmindedly and nibbled on.
"Sure. I guess."
It was silent except for the soft munching of Roxas eating the fruit, and when the fruit was gone Riku spoke again.
"Did you know that some people think that the reason paopu fruits are star-shaped is that they are in fact fallen stars? They believe that that's why when two people share one their hearts are intertwined forever. Something about the heavens and such."
This time Roxas snorted. "That has got to be the most idiotic thing I've heard. Fruit that can tie souls together…ha! What kind of fool would even try that? I bet paopu's aren't even that good."
Riku grinned. "Well, you sure liked the half that I didn't eat."
