The day had ended rather quickly since Tidus and Wakka had been busy practicing while Selphie annoyed the hell out of them. Sora and Riku nearly died from all the laughing, so all in all, this day had been great.
Now it was night and Sora was lying in his bed, looking out of the window. It was full moon and the night was clear, without any clouds. He smiled and rolled over to lie on his stomach, letting his arms drop down from each side of the bed, his chin resting on his pillow. Tomorrow would be so fun, he thought. Everyone acting totally weird, Tidus and Wakka together, Selphie chasing Kairi...Sora started laughing from the mere thought of it. The funniest thing though, was that Selphie seemed to be really into it, he hadn't thought that he would get so much support for his plan.
"Knock knock."
Sora chuckled as he heard the voice outside, in front of his window.
"Who's there?" He playfully asked, trying to sound annoyed but failed as his voice held far too much amusement.
"The Lord of Darkness!" The voice outside growled, actually sounding really dangerous but eventually failed just like Sora as a chuckle was audible.
Sora rolled over again to sit up and put his finger to his chin. "Hmmm....I dun want no bad Lords of Darkness in my room. Go away!" He grinned and started snickering when he heard Riku groan.
"Oh come o~on! Lemme in!" Riku whined. "I promise to be a good Lord of Darkness!"
Sora chuckled and refused to open the door. "Nope! My mommy always told me--" but he was cut off by Riku yelling in frustration,
"Pleaaaase! I can't sleep when you're not with me! I'm going to look like a zombie if I don't get my beauty sleep, you know!"
Sora snickered again and jumped up to open the door. As he swung it open, Riku was standing there, arms crossed, a dangerous glint in his eyes. "Ha! Now I have you! You've let me in, now you're mine!" Riku said, and pushed them back in, kicking the door shut with his foot. Sora was grinning the whole time. Though he had been really tired before and just wanted to sleep, he was still happy that Riku had come here. The had spent a lot of nights together lately, and Sora was getting used to having someone beside him. No matter how tired he was, he would always feel lonely without Riku.
"So...." Riku purred, pushing Sora down onto the bed, before leaning down to capture his lips. Sora enjoyed every single moment of what Riku was doing and simply let him continue, titling his head to one side to expose his soft flesh of his throat, inviting Riku to taste it while his own hands wrapped around Riku's waist to pull him close, crushing his body down to his own.
Riku landed on top of Sora, almost crushing him with his weight and started to roam his hands through Sora's hair, loving the way the silky strands surrounded his fingers. While his hands massaged Sora's scalp, Riku kissed Sora over and over again, on the lips, on his cheek, on his forehead, simply everywhere.
Sora loved every moment of it but somehow, in the back of his mind, he started thinking. Somehow it felt different from the other times Riku and he were together. Riku was different. But in a good way. Sora let out a sigh of pleasure as he thought he would burn up, because he felt every spot Riku had kissed burning in a pleasuring way. Riku's touches were so addictive, his caress so loving.
And then it ended. Riku pulled away.
Sora opened his eyes, first realizing that he had closed them, and stared at Riku with a mixture of disappointment and confusion.
Riku's eyes were blazing down on him, freezing him in place. Then, Riku pulled something out of the bag he had brought. Sora blinked. He had brought a bag? Why didn't he notice before?
His mind went blank immediately when his eyes fell on the thing Riku had brought.
'No way...' He thought, eyes wide in surprise.
Riku looked a little awkward, fidgeting with the star-shaped fruit in his hand. A Paopu fruit.
"Um..." He began, starting to get nervous, which was actually really unlike Riku.
Sora stared at Riku's hands. This was a Paopu fruit. It was *the* Paopu fruit. The one that held the legend about...
"I know it's just a legend, but I want...our destinies to be entwined!" Riku rushed the last bit of the sentence, holding the fruit towards Sora while squeezing his eyes shut as if waiting for a blow.
Sora's heart was pounding faster than ever and he almost thought it would jump out of his chest if it kept pounding like that. What should he do? Riku wanted...Even if it was just a legend, the meaning of this was simply... Sora couldn't describe his feeling. He loved Riku and he knew that Riku loved him, too. But this...Riku wanting to share a Paopu fruit...this was even *more* than just love, and Sora was so overwhelmed by it that he couldn't do anything but simply stare.
As Riku didn't hear any response he opened his eyes again and looked at Sora, almost a little defeated.
"Don't you...want to share...?" He shakily asked. Riku was fully aware of what he was doing right now and he would understand if Sora was scared. Love and being together was one thing, but entwining their destinies...
Sora took the star-shaped fruit, broke it in half, and handed one half to Riku.
Then he smiled.
Riku blinked and it took him awhile to realize that Sora had just accepted - and his heart jumped into his throat.
Looking into each other's eyes they lifted the fruit up to their mouth in unison. Even their hearts were beating in unison in this moment and then, both opened their mouth, still looking into each other's eyes, pushed the fruit in, chewed - and swallowed.
For a while, both of them sat like a stone, motionless, only doing the most necessary thing like breathing. There was nothing but the waves from the outside audible, the waves of the ocean playing in the wind. Riku and Sora just sat there, staring at each other.
"...do you feel different?"
Riku suddenly asked, moving again and, a little frown on his forehead.
Sora started moving too and scratched his head. "Um...I feel...sick." He grimaced and held his stomach. Riku nodded and stuck his tongue out.
"Me too... that...that fruit tastes like crap!" He exclaimed, emphasizing the word 'crap'.
Sora started throwing a tantrum like a 4-year old and whined about his stomachache. Riku watched him with a sorry expression, he'd been the one who had the idea. 'Me and my stupid ideas...' He thought to himself, but eventually started grinning when he saw Sora's childish behaviour.
His grin broadened with every second until he couldn't hold back anymore and started to laugh.
Sora immediately stopped his whining and looked up at his laughing friend, starting to grin too. Soon, they were both laughing endlessly, lost in the stupidity of this situation.
After a while they finally calmed and Riku sighed.
"Man, sorry for this...if I had known about the taste..."
Sora giggled and threw his arms around Riku, surprising the silver-haired. "H-huh?" He couldn't even ask what Sora was doing since the younger boy started attacking his lips with his own. Sora was almost hyperactive and really energetic...all of that because he was happy.
"This is the best thing that ever happened." Sora whispered after pulling away from Riku only to take his arms and wrap them around himself, his back leaning against Riku's chest. He shifted a little so that he could see Riku when he titled his head up and smiled contently at him.
They remained in this position for some time and fell silent, listening to the sound of the waves outside. Riku's right hand was resting on Sora's stomach while the other one caressed him in a soothing motion.
"Kairi was your first love, wasn't she?" Riku suddenly asked, breaking the silence.
Sora 'hmm'ed and eventually nodded. "Yeah..."
He had a huge crush on her ever since he first saw her and Riku had always been there to support Sora with his worries about Kairi. The last time was the kissing lesson...
"But that was before I knew I could have you..." Sora shifted to face Riku and nuzzled into him, spoiling his love with butterfly kisses of his sweet lips. Riku kissed back, his strong arms cradling Sora in a tight embrace. Tight but tender. They leaned in and bumped their foreheads, both chuckling slightly before kissing again, and Riku's hand found its way into Sora's hair again, running through them gently.
"I love you." Riku whispered between kisses.
"I love you more." Sora whispered back, knowing exactly how incredibly sappy this sounded but, hell, he worshipped Riku. Kairi had been his first love, alright, she's been his first crush, his first experience with love. But Riku...being with Riku was different. He didn't have to prove anything to anyone, not like the time when he had been with Kairi. He always had to beat Riku to show Kairi that he was worth her time. And he had to give her presents all the times, girls liked those things a lot, he figured. It was tiring for a nearly 15-year old boy to be a girl's lapdog. Nearly 15... Sora suddenly remembered that his birthday was approaching, in fact it was coming in two days. And then it hit him.
"Riku..." He began, wrinkling his nose. "Could it be that this Paopu fruit was my birthday present?"
Riku stopped kissing him and looked at him a little dazed. "Uh..." He'd been totally lost in feeling Sora and his eyes were narrowed, just like he'd just been woken from a dream.
Sora noticed that absolutely adorable expression Riku was now wearing and 'aww'ed happily before placing a light kiss on Riku's nose - only to make him look even more adorable when he wrinkled his nose. Riku was sure cute sometimes, Sora thought and chuckled.
They continued to lie together, Sora contently cuddling with Riku, and their hands moved together, linking fingers.
"You really love cuddling, don't you?" Riku teased after a while.
Sora made a funny noise and lightly punched the silver-haired boy's arm before cuddling even more. Oh yes, he loved cuddling with Riku.

Morning. Selphie was fully awake and ready for her mission. Yes, she took it very seriously, almost as if she was the chosen one to bring peace to this island...or something like that.
Bouncing around, she played with her hair and made them into two pigtails, grinning happily as she saw herself in the mirror. Not long after that, Tidus knocked on her door, looking horrified.
"Hey Tidus! What's up?" She happily asked, throwing her stuffies around while looking for something.
"I...I..I..." Tidus seemed frightened and he was obviously unable to speak coherently.
"Yeah?" Selphie chirped, still making a mess out of her room, not succeeding in finding whatever she was looking for.
"I..had this horrible...dream..." Tidus stammered, shuddering at the memory of his dream. The perky brunette immediately turned her attention to her boyfriend and raised her eyebrow.
"About what?"
Tidus blushed a little and twiddled his thumbs. He felt a little embarrassed to tell her about his nightmare. He wasn't supposed to be a crybaby...
"It's ok, Tidus. I love you even if you're a cry-baby." Selphie giggled and bounced over to the boy, peering at his face.
Tidus blushed even more and sighed, shaking his head. "I dreamed that I was married to Wakka...." He grimaced and shuddered again.
Selphie blinked. And burst out into laughter.
"You what??" she squealed, laughing so that her pigtails were bouncing with her shaking head.
Tidus frowned and pouted, crossing his arms. "Selph, that's really not funny. It was scary. You should have seen that....." He trailed off, too disgusted to continue talking.
Selphie snickered and patted Tidus's back. "Oh come on, Wakka's a nice guy. And don't worry, you won't have to marry him. You're mine." She smiled brightly, placing a short kiss on his cheek.
Tidus heaved a long, over dramatized sigh and eventually nodded. Selphie smiled.
"Hey." Tidus suddenly said, looking at his girlfriend as though she was from Mars.
"What? Something on my face?" She asked with raised eyebrows.
A smile made its way to Tidus' lips and he shook his head, reaching out to lightly pull on one of Selphie's pigtail. "You look really cute with those pigtails." He said.
Selphie squealed in delight and started hopping around, singing something like "Tidus thinks I'm cuuu~~uute!"
This day was going to be so great!
~Tbc~

Ending notes: Selphie with pigtails...cute, ne? I think she'd look cute... And Sora cuddling with Riku is sooo cute, too! *sighs dreamily* I had this dream about Riku and Sora (yes I'm obsessed) and they were sooo cute! hehe... okies, enough rambling, review if you like and stay tuned for the next chappy! ^_^
