Dreams
(Author's note: Sorry for ending the past chapter so badly, but I hadn't much time and I wanted to do you guys a favor to upload it earlier… so I hope you won't kill me xD)
I was alone, sitting on a tower. When I looked around, I found out it was the clock tower. I sat down on the edge again, not afraid of falling off. I enjoyed the sunset and I sat there a long time.
Suddendly Jessie came around the corner. "The day will end soon" She said with a deep voice, like she was in trance. Then she disappeared again. I frowned, not knowing what she meant with it.
Then Sora came around the corner and he sat beside me, staring off in distance, like he did yesterday, I remembered. "Sora?" I asked him, trying to read his mind. I couldn't reach his mind and I panicked a bit. Was this like the other nightmares? Then the sunset, who hadn't gone any further 'til now, started to make place for the night faster. "The day will end soon" had suddendly a meaning. She meant I had to do something before the day ended.
When the sun was almost gone, Sora suddendly turned to me and hurried through his words.
"Kairi, will you please sha-"
The sun was gone now and Sora was gone. I was alone and I shivered. What was so important? What had Sora to tell me… why couldn't he tell me before the day had ended?
The shadows became bigger and suddendly I was scared. I was alone, nobody to hide behind… just me and the darkness… and the day had ended, my chances over….
"Aah!" I woke up, my breathing unsteady and my heart beating unsteady as well.
I rolled over and fell out of bed. With a 'thud' and I gasped for air. I got up and rubbed my forehead.
Sora laid in a tight ball in my bed. He made a soft noise when I laid down next to him. I tried to read his mind, and I suddendly got his dream…
Sora was alone, although I was watching him in his dream, he sat on a tower. He looked around and his eyes widened when he recognized the clock tower. He sat down on the edge again, he wasn't afraid of falling off.
He enjoyed the sunset and he sat there a long time. Suddendly Jessie came around the corner. "The day will end soon" She said with a deep voice, like she was in trance. Then she disappeared again. He frowned, not knowing what she meant with it. Then I came around the corner and I sat beside him. I stared off in distance. "Kairi?" he asked, a bit unsure. He tried to find out what was wrong with me. When I didn't react, he panicked a bit. He knew there was something wrong with me and he saw that the sunset was almost over. He knew what Jessie's phrase meant.
When the sun was almost gone, I suddendly turned to Sora and hurried through my words.
"Sora, will you please sha-"
The sun was gone now and I was gone as well. Sora was alone and he shivered. He thought about my sentence. What was so important? What had I to tell him… why couldn't I tell him before the day had ended?
The shadows became bigger and suddendly Sora was scared. He was alone, nobody to hide behind… just him and the darkness… and the day had ended, his chances over…
"NO!" Sora woke up, his breathing unsteady and he gasped for air. He sat up and shook his head, trying to get the dream out of his head.
I stretched my hand toward him and brushed his cheek. He looked at me and we were quiet.
"Sora…" I swallowed before going on. "You had the same dream as me…"
Sora paced back and forth. With his hand he rubbed his forehead.
I watched him and Jessie rolled over in her sleep.
"Sora… Is there something you are hiding from me?" I asked him quietly.
He gritted his teeth. "Not much"
He focussed on his breathing and I got up. I hugged him and whispered in his neck: "Sora, the dream was more like a warning… there isn't going to happen soon"
Sora wrapped his arms around me and sighed. "But only the thought you would leave me…" his breathing stopped a moment, "… just the thought you would leave me because of my unfinished sentence…"
I frowned. "Just the thought you would leave me because of my unfinished sentence too…"
He rubbed my back. "I wouldn't let you go"
I smiled weakly. "Yeah… but… that doesn't change the fact we had a warning… not only the dream…"
Suddendly Jessie's voice interrupted us. "A choice must be made"
We were both startled and turned to Jessie. She smiled, but her eyes were serious. "Daddy to talk in sleep again" Sora's arms pulled me closer. "Daddy to hide choice" Jessie went on mercilessly.
Sora winced. I turned to him. "Are you hiding a choice from me?" I asked him with disbelief and relief.
He sighed and let his concentration slip so I could read his mind.
He had a flashback to his conversation with Roxas on the day we hooked up.
Roxas sat beside Sora. They were quiet, but suddendly Roxas turned to Sora.
"So, how did you and Kairi really came together?" he asked.
Sora blushed. "I-I kissed her"
Roxas' eyes widened. "Out of nothing?" Sora nodded, still with a blush.
Roxas chuckled. "Wow. That's really… wow!"
Sora's eyes flickered away to the clock in the corner of the class room and then back to Roxas.
"What came in your mind?" Roxas asked, still grinning.
Sora inhaled deeply. "I w-was afraid to lose her…"
Roxas became serious. "What do you mean?"
Sora sighed. "I don't know… I-I was suddendly so scared…"
"I still don't get it…"
Sora shrugged. "We weren't friends anymore, but just not boy and girlfriend… I didn't know what to do… when I decided I wanted her to know how I felt… I told myself she was allowed to knock me down or something… if I didn't told myself that, I wouldn't have done it…"
Roxas shook his head. "Aw man! That's a whole story of one kiss!"
Sora's face turned suddendly red. It hadn't been one kiss… Roxas missed it.
"Roxas and Sora! Pay attention!" The teacher yelled at them.
But when the teacher looked away, Roxas turned to Sora.
"You're together now?"
Sora nodded, slightly smiling.
"So, are you ready for the next step?"
"What next step?" Sora asked confused.
"Well, propose her?"
Sora's eyes widened. "WHAT?!"
"You know, like you're going to marry her?"
"We're just hooked up, Roxas! If I'm going to ask her now, she'll refuse me! Definitely! I won't let it happen that way!"
"So you're going to ask her?"
Sora turned away. "Maybe"
"Or share the paopufruit?"
Sora threw his etui at his brother. "May I plan my own life please?"
My eyes narrowed. "I've heard that before…"
Sora nodded and laid his finger on my lips. "I tried to tune the rest out a while, but I was thinking about it a lot"
My eyes widened and he grinned. "It's nothing bad, I promise you… but it's a little embarrassing for me, because I've never ever thought about it before"
He pressed his lips onto mine and tucked my head under his chin, while he continued his flashback…
Roxas laughed. "Don't worry, you can"
Sora frowned.
Roxas became serious. "So you want to propose her?"
Sora twiddled with his fingers. "Actually, what am I waiting for?"
Roxas' eyes widened. "What?! Y-you-… I-I was only joking!"
Sora looked up, suddendly fierce. "But I'm not"
Roxas' jaw dropped.
Sora sighed. "I don't know what I'm thinking… I know I'll love her forever… but I can't ask her the same, right?"
Roxas pulled one eyebrow up. "Why not?"
Sora rolled with his eyes. "If she meets someone she loves more than me, I'll have to let her go"
Roxas snorted. "She won't"
Sora's eyes narrowed. "How come you're so sure?"
Roxas snorted again. "Come on! She loves you from the first second she saw you! Xion pointed many 'cool' boys and she didn't even look at them, Sora! She won't even think about leaving you!"
Sora turned sad. "However… It's like if I'm going to propose her… or a step closer… sharing the paopufruit… it's like she'll be officially mine…. I know it's possessive… but I-I don't want her to leave me… I-I… oh never mind…"
Roxas shook his head. "Sora, it's isn't possessive… well, it is in some ways, but it's sweet… you know how they call it?"
Sora held his head to the left. "How?"
"Love you idiot"
Sora threw his book at Roxas this time. "No, that's the first time someone told me"
They laughed. "Well, what are you waiting for?" Roxas finally asked.
Sora shrugged. "I'll wait…"
Roxas pulled an eyebrow up.
Sora sighed. "Fine, and I'll think about it"
Roxas chuckled. "Well, when I'm allowed to come to the wedding, I'll hear it"
Sora grimaced and looked for something to throw at him. "Stupid know-it-all"
Roxas was serious for the last time. "Sora, if you really love her, you'll have to decide whether you want her forever with you or not"
Sora's eyes were closed and he sighed. "It's not that easy…"
I chuckled. "You are hiding your choice whether you're going to marry me or not"
He was surprised. He quickly recovered and smiled. "Kind of"
Suddendly he made a face. "You screwed my whole plan up! Do I have to kneel?"
I laughed. "Yes, you still have to"
He grinned. "I'm not going to propose you now… I'll still try to surprise you somehow…"
He became serious. "But, if I ask you… will you… won't you refuse me?"
I pulled back a bit. "Sora… did you really… really think I was ever going to refuse you?!"
Sora held his head slightly to the left. "Well?"
"I won't"
"Promise?"
"Promise" I told him. Jessie interrupted us again. "Mommy will be waiting" She said happily.
Sora laughed and pressed his lips onto mine. I kissed him back and Sora's hands pulled me closer again. He tried to keep control, but he was losing it slightly. I slightly pulled away to help him. But his breathing was steady and his eyes sparked. "I love you" I whispered.
Suddendly I got an idea. I wanted to know what happened in Sora's head when it became blank before our first kiss.
I hugged him tightly and listened to his voice in my head. He wrapped his arms around me and stroke my hair.
I love you so much…
His feelings flew through his thoughts and I hugged him more tightly.
Jessie was hungry and we were too. We walked downstairs and we went to the kitchen.
My mum hugged Jessie. "Hello sweetie" Jessie giggled. "Hello grandma"
My mum was making soup, tomato soup. Sora's stomach started to rumble. Sora rubbed over his abdomen. "Ugh… last time when I was so hungry, I almost ate Roxas"
I laughed. "I'll take care I won't get eaten by you"
"Really?" Sora asked me, while he stood up.
I shove my chair suddendly away. "You don't have the guts, sir"
My mother watched us with a wide grin. She was real happy me and Sora were hooked up. She stroke Jessie over her hair, who was also watching us, with big eyes.
Sora was suddendly behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist. "Got you" he whispered in my ear. He kissed the back of my neck. I tried to wring myself out, but I was locked in his arms.
"Don't you have the guts to walk away before I can eat you" He chuckled.
I laughed. "Mercy, mercy, I will do everything you want"
Sora's grin became wider against my hair. "I'll remind you about that, honey"
"Soup is ready" My mum interrupted us.
"Just in time, I was about to eat someone" Sora laughed.
After the soup, we went upstairs. Sora yawned. "Well, believe it or not, I had to wait 'til you were asleep with thinking about it, that's why I'm such so tired all the time"
I held my head slightly to the left. "Why don't you take a bath after Jessie?"
He thought about that for a second. "That'll do nicely, I think"
I laughed and kissed him. "Love you"
I put Jessie in bath and watched her play with the water.
She saw me looking and she turned to me. She laid her wet hands around my face. "Mommy to look worried"
I smiled and brushed her cheek with one finger. "Mommy isn't worried, honey"
She held her head to the left. "Mommy is worried about Daddy"
I stroke her hair. I took a bit of soap and blew a bubble of it. Jessie laughed and tried to catch it.
When she was tired, I dragged her out of the bath.
I laid her in bed. "Bye honey" She sighed and kissed me. "Mommy is real sweet… Daddy really loves mommy" she said, while curling up in a tight ball. I stroke her hair and laid down in bed.
Sora was in bath and I was so tired I didn't hear him come back.
The only thing I knew was that suddendly his arms were around me and were pulling me closer.
"I love you" He whispered in my ear. I curled up against him and fell asleep.

Yeah, Jessie loves poems and repeats them. But she knows on a very strange way when to use the phrases…
And she learns more and more words… She'll become a part of the story…. In a very strange way too… At first, the plan was to bring her back after the project, but Jessie was just too important to Sora and Kairi… so I couldn't just dump her… that would be terrible from me… I have already broken RoxasXXion…. :$
