~Urusai (Enter) Toori ni haitte (A noisy street) Unmei no kamen wo tore (And put on the mask of destiny...)~

Riku watched the docks with distaste. Lying under a bridge waiting for someone was a drag. Selphie, Tidus, and Wakka had already walked by. Why did Sora have to Sleep in so late!? He rolled over on his back, watching the rotten brown wood and the sunlight peeking through the holes. Someone should really fix that bridge. While he was lying on his back watching the sun blink down at him a familiar ringing laugh was drawn to his ears and he flipped over, gazing at the path towards the village. And who should come down the dirt path but, Sora.

~Saki wo mitooshi suginante (Thinking too much about the future) Imi no nai koto ha yamete (Stopping things that have no meaning) Kyou ha hoshii mono tabeyouto (Today I'll eat delicious thing.) Mirai wo zutto sakidayo (The future is always before us) Bokunimo wakaranai (Even I don't know it)~

His heart broke as he saw who was laughing and walking with him. Kairi. There was no way she wanted to talk to him, not after what he'd done. Riku sighed and looked up at the holely bridge again. He saw the two clomp over the bridge when the bridge broke and the red head fell through.

"AHH!" Kairi screamed and landed with a thump into the ground. Sora looked down and asked. "You okay?" Worry was written all over his face. Kairi begun to gap... She saw Riku lying there with as much confusion as her.

"R-riku!?" She looked at him with disbelief. He was just as stupidfied as she. Man why couldn't have Sora fell in. He just bobbed his head and shrugged. Sora glanced down at Riku as well.

"RIKU!~" The youth yelled happily and jumped down the hole and had Riku in a tight embrace. He didn't expect THIS warm of a welcome.

"Hey to you too Sora" Was his calm and cool reaction. He would have never let go if he returned the gesture so he didn't. Kairi smiled just as well and stood up and dusted off the sand attached to her skirt.

"Riku! I'm glad you're back!" Riku nodded to her as Sora was still hugging him saying some incoherently. So he returned Sora's hug and held him close and sighed. He wished Kairi wasn't here. He'd tell Sora everything, how much he cared, everything. Kairi looked at the two and nodded inwardly, she'd just leave them alone. She knew what Sora wanted to tell him so she turned and waved.

"I'll see you too later!" And before anyone could say a thing she had ran off down the shore. Riku shrugged as Sora looked at her back blankly.

~Kansei sasenaide (It's not necessary to go right to the end,) Motto yokushite (Just keep going.) One scene zutsu totte (It's okay if the scenes) Ikeba iikara (Go one by one) Kimi to iu hikari ga watashi no scenario (The light known as "you") Utsushidasu ( Reflects my scenario.)

"Riku! What brings you here!? I thought you were lost." Sora looked at him wholeheartedly. And Riku just motioned him to sit as he did the same as his words so Sora followed suit.

"What's wrong?" Sora asked, fully of worry. Something was wrong with his silver haired friend and he wanted to know what.

"Hmm? Oh nothing. I'm just happy to see you happy and well." Was his tranquil reply.

"Well.... I have somethin' to, uh, tell you... " Sora was trying to come out with the right words. Was he going to tell him never to come? Not to enjoy it and be happy with the comfort of just being near his love? He prayed not.

"Well? Spit it out." Riku wondered what Sora had to say.

"Riku..." Sora drew out his name in a slurred tone, not knowing how his friend would react to him. Taking his chances the brunette crawled into Riku's lap and gently placed a kiss on the fair boy's lips.

~Motto hanasouyo (Let's talk more,) Mokuzen no ashita no koto mo (And about tomorrow that's before your very eyes) Terebi keshite watashi no koto dake wo (Turn off the television,) Miteiteyo (And look only at me...)
