Take Me Back
A/N: I don't have a clue what I'm going to do for this chapter. I can see that as potentially bad...
Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts. Just, a few plots. Well actually I've got like 20 ideas all for different couples. Only about 4 of them are repeated couples. Amazing, huh? Longest disclaimer ever I bet.
Quick Random Thought: I love Kit - Kats. They're yummy!
Chapter 20: Dream Sequence
Rays of golden light flooded through trees and houses of the city, rolling onto the slightly faded wood. Connected to the wooden deck, was a little, cozy house that was unusually quiet for the day.
The house was something someone would see only the best parts of town. Everything was a warm wooden and red color, sunlight dancing in the reflections of the glossy furniture, making everything shine beautifully.
There were a few built in shelves carved into the wall, the natural looking wood, smooth and sweetly scented. Everything sparkled with a welcoming color from rich golds to dark shades of purple.
It was well designed, and yet, it seemed as though it the pieces that hung on the walls, or the antique vase that sat quietly and ancient in the corner had been in the family for far longer than anyone remembered.
The steps creaked as people walked up and down them, wearing them down as time went on, with socks and tennis shoes, and sometimes even dragging heavy clothed bags down them. They were rugged, but did the job with perfection leaking out.
The kitchen wasn't anything fancy, the simple white places and glass cups, some strangely shapened, and others miss-matched. The window glimmered with sun catchers layered by colors, some crystals shimmered clear, aiming rainbows on the cozy yellow walls. On these walls hung art projects ranging from four year olds to nine year olds, every shade of the color hue splattered on some paper or another.
And everywhere...
Flowers...
Flowers in the window where the sun catchers swayed, gracefully sweeping rays of sun into microscopic beads vibrating on the wall in magnificent colors, stood although short, very proud, blue bells, soaking up the star's light.
On the table in a transparent, smooth glass vase, water being hinted with colors from the odd objects in front of the window square, white and yellow daisies danced in the water. From the hot humid water trickled down their freshly sprayed leaves and pedals, creating a natural process nothing could mimick.
In the living room, snuggled in all corners, and even a specificly made place in the wall, velvety red, orange, and yellow roses, silky white and pink lilies, a few miss matched tulips, and a ruffled cornation or two laid, resting until someone stopped to admire them once again.
The house was something anyone would envy, even if they had the house of a king. Beautifull woven rugs were carefully set upon the floors just so, to match up to the fixed-to-be-new bookselves, holding anything from Romeo and Juliet to Harry Potter.
It was at this time, someone walked through the old wooden and stain glassed door quietly, slipping their old grey shoes off their feet, and sneaking into the kitchen undetected. Standing at the sink was a petite but slender person, doing the dishes, humming almost inaudibly to herself.
Smiling, bright saphire and glimmering eyes danced as he tip toed behind her, and suddenly snaked his arms around her waist. It was as though she was suspicious of him all along. She let her small body melt into the arms of this male, their bodies meshing together as though they were suppose to be.
Carefully, he turned her around and bent down to kiss her, closing his eyes as her almost ruby lips gingerly touched his. Both so passionate, both so interrupted. There was giggling behind them, and the two turned to see a beautiful four year old, with ringlet curls of golden blonde, green eyes shimmering in delight with the amusement she found in their actions.
The older woman took the man's hand and walked over to her, playfull about to pounce. Her eyes widened, as she turned and bounded for the front door, as though a new deer in flight. Her spiraled hair bounced down to her waist, as her summer dress flew behind her. Carefully she ran outside to where others were laughing on the deck, as the two walked out and smiled down at them.
The other child, chocolate brown hair, and stunning blue eyes, smiled goofily up at them, going cross eyed and coming back out for laughs. His brother and sister seemed to think of him as hilarious. His tan reflection came from the beautifully lit sun in the background now, not the center of attention as though the house's very interior design depended on it.
And finally, the last boy. He had golden hashbrown hair, more blonde at some parts, and more brown at others. Perhaps it was more of the... Blonde in the summer, brown in the winter sort of thing. He didn't care, he seemed extremely content having exquisite and stunning turquoise eyes, scanning the two in front of him before he flung himself towards the woman with light speed, embracing her legs just barely before she could look down.
Emerald eyes smiled down upon the young boy with affection. When she looked down, her eyes caught the reflection of the shining diamond on her fourth finger on her left hand. Smiling fondly, she pulled her right hand up to cradle it...
The diamond that had completed her life. The diamond that was part of the ring, that was given to her in exchange for her love. It meant so much to her...
Glancing at the blonde next to her, she could still blush at all of the crazy things they had done together since they'd know each other. It had been twenty - one years since that day in preschool when she had met him...
"Olette?" His voice was soft, like velvet if it had a ring to it. Every time she heard his voice, her heartbeat increased, and butterflies took off in her stomach. It was just too perfect.
"Roxas?" She asked back, glancing his way, as he rolled his beautiful eyes.
"Mind telling Rosalee, Scotty, and Colby when you're going to make them that pizza?" He smiled his cute, crooked, and innocent smile.
The positively adorable smile that looks so irresistable in every way, shape, and form. She just couldn't get mad at him when he pulled that look. Azure eyes shimmered, silky, cream skin glowed, hair shined and waved slightly in the warm breeze, and a smile danced upon his lips in the most serene episode ever.
"Of course..." Shaking her head, she snatched up the male's hand in hers, marching inside, the three kids following anxiously.
Perfection...
??
"It's now or never..." She sighed, in an attempt not to cry in front of her brother.
It was essential she stay strong for the both of them, since he had failed, and her mother sure had as well. She hadn't even left her bedroom, let alone the house, ever since they had gone to the hospital a few hours ago. Olette took this chance to invite her friends over, and tell them the news. Which was what she was doing right now...
"Either he wakes up now, or he doesn't at all..." She looked towards the ground sadly, grief threatening to overtake her self control.
"Ollie!" Selphie suddenly wailed, unexpectedly.
Tears welled over her eyelids as she flew to her friend, embracing her in a bear hug so hard she could have sworn a few ribs cracked. Her shirt was soaked in a matter of minutes as the brunette sitting on her lap sobbed.
"This is horrible, Ollie!" She sniffled, pulling back a little bit, "What in the world are we suppose to do?"
"Selphie..." She motioned with some eye contact to her little brother, who sat miserably in a chair not far away, seemingly oblivious to the world around him. Selphie mouthed an "O" with her mouth, and crawled onto the sofa, composing herself. It was Kairi's turn next to hug the girl, and hug her she did, although it wasn't nearly as tight.
The boys all hugged her in one big pile, in an attemp to cheer her up. It worked for the moment. Finally, her brother looked up and cracked a sorrowful smile, and they all decided to make some cookies.
??
Slimming and fitting, adorable and amazing. The sparkling orange fabric hugged her curves in all the right places, until the start of her thighs, where it fluttered out in half ruffles. The fabric was longer in the back, stopping half way down her to her ankles, but in the front, stopping just after her knees.
Silver strappy stilouettes laced down her shoe, the diamonds on the strap, glittering with her new pedicure. A locket dangled from her neck, the silver matching the shoes so perfectly, people who didn't know her would think she bought both in a set. Inside that locket was a dazzling picture people thought was the most adorable thing ever...
Sapphire orbs slotted in an small, silver, oval hoop hung from her ears, the earrings shimmering in the brightly lit room. That gem matched the eyeshadow faded slightly over the pale eyelids of the brunette, who's hair was pulled up in a elegant bun, spiral curls falling from it. Her lips shined ruby, and her cheeks modeled a natural blush for the evening.
Silver, blue, and orange bracelets used her wrist to be shown off, as a white lily corsage was slipped onto her wrist. Her nails had also gone through same reward as her toenails except in a French manicure form.
She could hear someone hop up the creaky steps in the hallway, and held her breath. No way could he already be there... Her two best friends stood behind her, their reflection mirroring her expression as they stood infront of the mirror, all of them dressed in something extremely formal, looking their absolute best.
A messy haired brunette burst through the door, panting, his complexion reddened from the mad dash.
"They're here!" He basically screached, and all the girls let out their breath. Nerves rose in their stomachs as they made their way to the door. The darker brunette stopped, and put her hands on his shoulders. He winked and gave her a thumbs up, only to recieve a hug back.
Walking down the hall, she caught the last glimpse of her redhead friend making her entrance, and the gasps, and chuckles from below. She could almost feel the blush on her boyfriend's cheeks, feeling slightly embarassed for him.
Taking her last breath, she carefully turned the corner, cautious about making a fool of herself, and began to walk down the stares. She saw heards turn from her to the blonde staring at her. She laughed at the moment, for one time in her life feeling as though her voice sounded like music. Because of the person looking the most intently at her, she felt like a princess - the most special person in the world.
Ruining the serious moment, her parents burst into the room and insisted on taking pictures. Everyone laughed and joked, and complimented each other.
"That color looks really great on you, Selphie..." The blonde blushed, looking anywhere but at her.
She cupped his cheek in her hand and kissed his lips, "Thank you, Tidus," she giggled, feeling slightly giddy.
The brunette male knelt down, and took the redhead's hand in his, kissing it romantically. He pulled out a rose and presented it to her. Gasping, she took it and kissed him with wide eyes.
"It's beautiful, Sora!" She choked out, at a loss for words at how perfect the night had begun.
"Not as beautiful as you, Kairi..." It was cheesy, yes, but something only he could conjure. She kissed him again, and squeezed his hand, showing the strong affection she held for him and no one else.
"Well come on Roxas! It's your turn to say something cheesy!" Selphie laughed, pressuring the person standing infront of the shy brunette.
Instead of saying something, he simply, but passionately, kissed the girl in front of her. Everyone was around, something quite shocking to witness between the two of them. Eventually someone wolf whistled, and there was a slight applaud.
When he pulled back, he whispered in her ear, so only she could hear, "I love you..."
Unbreakable...
??
"Daddy... I miss you... Please come back..." A tear escaped her eye, and she laughed at the irony. "I know you used to tell me that I would never have to cry over you... That you would never do anything to make me upset... Oh but you have, and I want you to come out of it so we can be a happy family again. It's really upsetting that you won't wake up. The doctors said that either you'll wake up or you won't... You better pick the right choice, otherwise... Oh I don't know what I would do without you," she began to sob, placing her head on the pillow, her eyes moistening the fabric.
She had not outright cried for her father yet, having to be the most mature in the situation since the accident. But now, it was her turn to bawl her eyes out until someone dragged her away. She needed her father, and she hoped that people understood that. Shaking her head, she looked up at him, and ran her finger over his cheek.
"I want you home..." She said simply, as though it were the most obvious thing in the world.
Disgusted with the fact she couldn't do anything about the current situation, she got up and paced the room a little, letting the tears flow as the pleased. She didn't care if someone came in and saw her, they knew damn well there was something wrong if she wasn't crying.
Shaking her head, she looked at her father, willing with all of her might that things end up okay. Things hadn't with Roxas, so it wasn't fair that things couldn't with her own father. It was a cruel world, but she didn't possibly think that it could be just this cruel.
Debating on if she should go home or not, she suddenly heard the door open behind her.
There, standing in the doorway, was an absolute horrifying, confusing, and wonderful sight...
??
"Get the fuck away from me! I never want to see you again!"
"Please just let me explain! I promise, it wasn't me! Whatever you saw, it wasn't me, and I would never do anything to hurt you!"
"If you love me so much, why has everyone adviced me not to believe you... Why has everyone convinced me to the fact that I've seen proof!"
"Olette, I would never do anything to hurt you!" He cried out, biting his lip, knowing his lie was about to unravel. She had seen, and there was no changing that.
Glaring at herself, and at the man in front of her, she crossed the red carpet, her orange converse shoes scuffling acrossed it wryly. Of course this would happen...
"Please babe, please..." He took her hands in his, but one was pulled back abruptly, as though a decision was just made, and slapped across his face.
A sting filled his eyes, as he backed up, his eyes widened in horror. He stumbled back too far, and knocked into a marble side table, knocking a valuable snow white, and indigo vase off, and shattering it onto the floor.
The brunette took one look at it, and anger swept across her face faster than someone could snap their fingers. Stalking up to him, she reared back her knee, and thrust it forward, hitting him in a spot he didn't want to be hit. Then, she pushed him over onto the wooden ground, and turned to leave.
He glared at her, and sat up in slight pain to scream, "BITCH!"
"Oh go fuck yourself, Alex!" She cried out, refusing to let tears fall until she was safely down a flight of stairs. Thrusting the doors open to the hotel, she rain into the street, across it, and about a mile until she came to an apartment building. Sniffling, she slipped in after a person coming out, and raced back up the stairs.
In an unbelievable record time, she pounded on a white door, until the music stopped, and shuffling was heard, before the wood swung open. In a matter of seconds, the person had Olette swooped up in her arms.
"What's wrong?" He whispered in her ear.
"He cheated on me! Oh Roxas, you and everyone else was right all along!" She sobbed, her voice strained, and her eyes red, stomach twisting in a horrible pain.
He hugged her, rocking her back in forth in a comforting motion... What more could he do, as he never learned any further with this girl, since his thoughts when he was young.
He could scoop her into his arms, like he had seen on romance movies, but it wouldn't fit... She didn't love him. He couldn't kiss her all over, like his parents did when he was small and upset, because he wasn't family... Only in a brotherly way - never in the way he wanted it. So he did what he had always done when she came back... He hugged her... And while Hayner and Pence were texted, forced to come and give their support... The world fell to a darkened hour...
Fate...
