Coincidences that Life Brings
Chapter 6: Past of forgotten memories
Sora smiled happily in Matt's arms. She seemed to be lost in the depts of his ocean blue eyes. His eyes seemed as if they were endless pools of rich, clean water on a perfect spring or summer day. Enternity seemed to pass before Matt had realized Sora was still in his arms. He would've longed to keep her in his arms longer yet unsure of Sora's feelings and let her down.
"Thank you..." She smiled embarrassedly as she brushed herself off.
"Not to be mentioned of." Matt said carefully not to say words he didn't want to say yet.
Sora leaned against the large tree that she had fallen from. "What must we do now?" She said quietly as she looked down at her feet.
"Take ourselfs onto another adventure?" He suggested while chuckling slightly.
Sora raised an eyebrow. "Why not?" She grinned.
"Then an adventure it is!" He laughed as he grabbed his stallion and hopped aboard the steed. Matt streatched his arm toward Sora to take. "Shall we head off mi'lady?"
"We shall good sir!" Sora played along as she grabbed his hand and was possitioned infront of Matt while he held the riegns of the horse.
"Where to?"
"Anywhere!" She shouted
"Anywhere hm?" Matt paused a bit. "Shall we let the horse guide then?"
"... the horse?"
"Of course! You will go anywhere, I don't care much so... therefore we let the horse decide!" Matt chided.
"YOU..." Sora slightly elbowed Matt's stomach.
"Hey, that's my abdomen you just punched there..."
"Yes and?"
"And that hurt!"
Sora only laughed. "Then maybe you should know when to defend yourself better."
"Oh?" Matt raised an eyebrow. With a smirk, he let go of the reigns and poked Sora at the sides of her waist making her jump.
"Gahh! Matt!" Sora yelled as she turned her head around to face him. "That was mean..."
"And punching me wasn't?"
There was an comfortable silence between them before that silence was broken by Matt and Sora's laughter.
"Fine fine, truce?" Sora said holding out her hand.
"Truce." Matt accepted.
Taking the reigns once again, the two set off on their own journey heading wherever the wind (or horse) take them. The sun began to set and their stomachs had become empty from not eating much since they left. Camping out for the night, Matt had found a nice, large, dry tree area to rest for the night while Sora went out looking for a stream for water and with luck, some fish as well.
Gathering some firewood, Matt crouched down and as he reached towards a piece of wood, something flashed into his eyes. Falling backwards and landing on his butt, Matt crawled towards where he saw the flash. Old leaves and bits of dirt covered most of the item up. Matt brought his hands infront of him and bushed away the leaves and dirt to find a silver locket. It wasn't shaped in a heart like most girls in his time had crazed about. This locket was in a shape of an oval with a beautiful carving of a small dragon. Soon enough, Matt noticed the crease which meant that there was more inside. Before Matt was able to explore any further, a gasp came from behind him.
Sora found a stream and gathered some water. To her luck, she even caught some fish for dinner. Finding her way back to camp, Sora saw sticks scattered all around Matt as his body was crouched down towards the ground. Heading closer to see if he had any trouble, Sora soon saw what Matt descovered. Gasping in shock, Sora nearly dropped all the contents in her hands as she recognized that locket he had in his hands.
"Sora?" Matt said with a slight tone of confusion.
"Y-y-yes Matt?" Sora said uneasily with a bit of a stutter.
"Are you alright? do you need to rest?" Matt's eyes grew with concern.
"No no.. I'm fine, say could you start the fire, I found something we could eat... Euh... Is it me or is it getting a little too cool now?" Sora tried to change the subject.
Not being as dense and many people would expect him to be, Matt just put off this situation for another time when Sora was willing to tell him. Matt stood up and pocketed the locket he had found. Picking up the firewood he had dropped, Matt quietly set up a campfire. The rest of the meal con in uneasy silence. It was now time to rest and Sora still didn't say much after that small little incident earlier. Deciding to let it be, Matt went to the horse and pulled out a large blanket that was in a sac that was mounted on the horse.
"Sora, I'm going to sleep, this blanket is large enough for the two of us. If you feel like sleeping just take some of this blanket."
Sora gave a small smile. "I will. Good night."
"Sleep well." Matt's head rested on the soft grass as he tried to sleep.
A sigh escaped Sora's lips as she wrapped her arms around her knees and rocked and forth quietly.
[x] memory [x]
"Father!!!!" A young girl squealed as she jumped into her father's arms.
"My little daughter... look at you! Covered in soot and grime. You remind me of myself at times....."
"Papa!!!" Sora giggled as she snuggled into her father's embrace. "I tried to dress up nicely for your birthday but this boy was being rude to me father!"
And how did that get your dress dirty?"
"I tossed him into a mudbank."
Sora's father only laughed. "Fair enough."
Sora then reached into a pocket in her dress. "Happy Birthday Papa!!" Sora said happily as she pulled out and held it in her outstretched arms.
"Sora... you didn't have to..."
"Papa! I wanted to! Birthday Papa!" Sora said encouragingly.
Sora's father took the gift into his hands. The glistening polished silver sparkled in the sunlight as Sora's father held the item by its chain. "Sora... It's lovely..." Her father looked at her with a proud expression as tears brimmed his eyes.
"Father? Why are you crying?"
"I'm not crying Sora. They're called tears of joy..."
"Truely Papa? Then cry all you want!"
"Not all cries are for joy Sora,"
"I know, though it is now so cry all you want!"
Sora's father smiled with adoration as he grabbed his daughter and held her tightly against him. "I will my daughter... thank you."
eing ru eSora smiled broadly and proudly. "I love you Papa."
"I love you too Sora..." He whispered as he picked up the little girl in his arms. "I believe it is time for the two of us to retire home."
"Home!!!" Sora cheered as her father placed her on his shoulders. Sora's hands rested on her father's head as she looked around the garden of their home. Today was truely the perfect day filled with complete happiness and bliss.

"Papa..." Sora cried as she wrapped her arms tighter around her legs and rocked back and forth. Her eyes glued to the small fire that was dying out. "I miss you Papa..." She said quitely as she rested her forehead on her knees and fell into a small slumber.
