Parting Of The Ways

Chapter 13: Laughing Spells

"She might-" Selphie caught herself as she noticed what was going on outside behind Tidus.

"What?" Tidus asked her. She was looking past him, but he was too afraid of seeing Riku and Sora making out again.

"Look!" Selphie pointed behind him.

Tidus turned his head slowly but paused for a second to think. This was Selphie here. That girl could get excited over anything- literally. She once forced poor Sora out of bed to come look at some seagull eating a fish. Tidus could remember the look on Sora's face the day that happened.

"Wait, Selphie. Is this something stupid or something like really important?" The blonde boy was suddenly scared of what this girl might have seen.

"Just look! Hurry, Tidus!" Selphie started jumping up and down, then ran down the ramps, and down the ladder. She was running as fast as her little legs could carry her.

"Okay! I'll look!" Tidus shouted at the side of the tree house. He slowly continued turning his head around.

"Oh my god!!" Tidus yelled with a disgusted look upon his face. "Selphie! Why is this exciting you?" He almost fell off of the railing because of the horrible sight he saw. It was sickening after the recent information Selphie had just now given him. Sure, it might have been okay if those two were okay with Riku and Sora, but now- weren't they considered enemies?

Selphie stopped running and looked back at her boyfriend. "Because it's WRONG!" Tidus laughed, Kairi and Wakka were always saying how wrong Sora and Riku were.

Yes, you guessed it. Kairi and Wakka were flirting outside. But this kind was different. Both were in the ocean, Kairi in her extremely skimpy purple bikini and making sure to show whatever she didn't have off to Wakka.

He slashed at her, and Kairi made an attempt to play the "helpless female" role when she couldn't splash as hard as Wakka could. Deep down, Kairi probably was a strong girl, she just didn't want others to know it. When they were all young teenagers, everyone had "dueled" each other, except for Kairi. She was the only one who never had some sort of a weapon and she never fought anyone. Probably afraid to rip her tiny mini-skirt- not that Kairi would mind, it would just be even shorter, which seemed what she was aiming for. To set the world record for the shortest skirt in history.

"Oh please." Tidus rocked back in forth on the railing, then decided to go hang out with Selphie inside, where those two couldn't be seen nor heard. Tidus was just sick of the two and the stunt they pulled.

~~~~~

Sora and Riku were laughing as hard as they could, holding hands, and walking on the bridge. Riku was clutching his stomach with pain because he was laughing so hard, while Sora just fell down and started rolling around with laughter.

Riku wasn't laughing as hard now and held out a trembling hand to Sora. He took it and stood up, still laughing.

"I- cant- believe- they- saw- us!" Sora had laughing fits between words.

"Yeah, I know!" Riku started laughing again as he pulled Sora close to him. He squeezed him tight and laughed into Sora's neck, Sora laughed into him as well. "Bet that shocked them!" Riku was now almost crying because he was laughing so hard. "Sora?"

"Ye-ah?" Sora laughed harder.

"Why are we laughing about it all? Shouldn't we be upset?" Both stopped laughing for about a minute and stared at each other.

"I dunno." Then they both started laughing like crazy again.

Riku calmed down and finally stopped laughing about ten minutes later, although Sora still hadn't seemed to calm down as well, for he still stood there clutching onto Riku, and trembled with laughter.

"Sora! Get control of yourself!" Riku shook him. Then, a smile curled up onto his lips as he looked over at Sora and kissed him. Sora opened his mouth, because he was *still* laughing and spit in Riku's face on accident.

"Sora!" Riku hissed.

"Sorry. I- can't- stop!" The brunette boy once again fell on the ground.

"Just hurry up and get it all out of your system." Riku hit himself in the head. Never ever get Sora to laugh. Chances are, he wouldn't stop until about a couple of hours down the line. That was one of the many things Riku loved about his Sora- his laugh. The way he was so care-free about everything and could just have fun with anything. Something that Riku needed to do more often.

Sora turned onto his side and shook himself with laughter, as he could feel Riku coming around on his other side and sitting next to him. Riku rubbed Sora's back as he kept on laughing.

Finally the laughing ceased.

"Are you done yet?" Riku leaned over to look into Sora's eyes.

"Yeah." He returned the gaze for a moment before grabbing Riku's face and bringing it nears his, kissing him.

Riku broke from the kiss and pushed Sora up against the railing playfully. "So what do you wanna do, love?" He asked teasingly.

"Um.... I dunno. What do you wanna do?" Sora pushed back, making Riku fall onto his back as Sora creeped up onto his chest.

"Gee, I dunno, Sora. Hey!" Sora pounced on top of Riku and knocking him hard against the wooden floor of the bridge. "Sora! That hurt!" He sat up and rubbed the back of his pretty silver head.

"Sorry." Sora bowed his head.

"Oh come on. I was just joking. It didn't really hurt that much." Riku decided to ruffle Sora's messy hair at the moment.

"Watch it! You know it takes forever to get my hair so perfect!" Sora threw Riku's hands off of his head.

"I thought you said it was natural, though." Was the reply.

"Sure it is, but do you have any idea how long it takes to brush?" Sora cuddled up to Riku and clutched his shirt, then peeked up at him through his chocolate bangs. (A/N: Not real chocolate!) Looking like the sweet, cute, innocent little Sora that Riku would always see him as.

Riku laughed and brushed Sora's bangs out of his face and wrapped his arms around Sora's neck pulling him as close as he possibly could.

"Hmmm... I hope Selphie and Tidus don't get any ideas from what they just saw." Sora wiggled around in Riku's arms as Riku said that.

"No, they aren't like us." Sora replied as he climbed his way up to Riku's face and stared into those pretty green eyes.

"What do you mean? Like us?" Riku kissed Sora's neck, then nuzzled into the crook of his neck.

"Like- you know what I mean! They wouldn't do anything like that." Sora stroked Riku's silver hair, it was so thin and velvet-like.

How many times before had Riku always had visuals and dreams of Sora and him like this? Plenty. How many times had he had dreams about Sora and him killing Kairi? Plenty. How many times has he envisioned Sora and him in that tree house - Okay, you get the point. He hates Kairi and loves Sora. But now, his dream was finally true.

~~~~~

"Wakka!" Kairi screamed and slashed some at the boy some more.

"Kairi, Stop!" Wakka had gotten a bunch of sea water in his eyes. Now, his eyes were stinging because of her. He covered his eyes.

"Wakka? Are you okay?" Kairi sweetly asked him and shyly walked up to him. "Oh, I'm sorry!" She leaned in and placed her hands behind her back. (A/N: She did that to Sora, a lot. It got on my god damn nerves so much! Okay, I'll stop with the Author's Notes now!)

"Ya, I'm okay. Just, I think I need to go home now." He took his hands away from his face and smiled at Kairi. She smiled back at him.

"Are you sure? I'm really sorry about it." Kairi leaned her head down and shuffled her feet in the water. "Do you need me, to uh, like come over and help you?" She slyly asked, head still hanging low.

"Kairi! I just got some salt water in my eye, ya!" She looked up at him with a sad puppy face, making the poor boy feel extremely guilty about what he had just said. "You could come over if ya wanted to, though." He quickly added.

Kairi's fake little sad puppy face quickly turned into a fake little happy face, too fake, even Wakka noticed right off the bat.

"Uh, Kairi?"

"Yes, Wakka?" She giggled and blushed madly. God, she was getting too obvious.

"Never mind." He placed his hand on her shoulder and walked her over towards the bridge to get to his home.

~~~~~

"Riku stop! I hear someone coming." Sora pushed Riku off of him for a moment and listened. The two were currently making out very intensely, but thankfully still had all their clothes on. Yes sir, had they learned their lesson about making out where people could find them.

"Sora-" Riku started.

"Shhhh!" Sora placed his finger over Riku's lip to quite him. "Oh god. RUN!" Sora took off quickly, Riku right behind him. He didn't know who or what they were running from, but he trusted Sora. So run he did.

"Sora!"

"What?" Sora panted as he ran.

"What in the hell are we running from?"

"Well, in the words of Selphie, Queen Bitchalot and her slave Wakka." He replied making Riku laugh.

"You know, wouldn't it have been more fun if we had let them see us making out? Although, I'm not exactly in the mood to hear some screechy voice yelling like crap at me at the moment." Riku slyly asked his boyfriend. He now realized that they were both racing, all of the competition had slowly returned into their new relationship.

Sora was pulling ahead, then Riku wanting to best his friend, put all of his strength into it as he desperately tried to somehow get in front of Sora.

Sora had always been the faster runner, as Riku had always been the better fighter, it was the nature of things, and people knew it on the island. Never challenge Riku to a duel and never challenge Sora to a race because chances are- you would lose very very very shamefully.

"Sora?"

"Hm?"

"How can you run so fast with those big shoes?" They stopped running because they had reached the other side of the bridge and were now both hunched over, hands on knees, and panting hard.

"Riku." Pant. "Your feet-" Pant. "Aren't so-" Pant. "Small either." One last pant from Sora before Riku laughed out loud. He had been laughing a lot recently, which made Sora feel good, he couldn't remember the last time he had heard Riku laugh before.

The silver haired boy stopped panting and stood up tall and stretched. "Let's go to my house or something. It's boring out here."

"Sure, whatever." Sora responded with a quick kiss, and off he ran again, heading towards Riku's house.

"There my little angel goes again." Riku waited a moment before running after Sora this time, and easily let Sora get there to his house before he did.

"Sora! Wait up!" Riku called after him, getting tired of the whole "race" thing. Right now, competing with Sora didn't seem all that fun- especially compared to something a lot more fun that they could do.

"Your so slow though, Riku!" He called back from behind his shoulder then finally stopped at Riku's doorstep, turned the brass handle, and walked right inside. He was soon followed by Riku.

"Mom? I'm home, okay?"

No answer.

"Mom? Jesus. I knew she wouldn't be here." Riku threw his jacket over in the corner of the hallway and made his way into the living room where Sora was. "You know, Sora..." He trailed off.

"What, Riku?" He looked at his boyfriend quizzically.

"My mom doesn't know yet." Oh yes, the big slap of reality. Would his mother be as okay with it as Sora's was? Most likely. She was a lot like Sora's mother after all. But still, you never know.

Author's Note: Okay, very sucky chapter. It took forever to think up. Jeeze, I'm losing my touch. Not that I had one to begin with! Well anyways, sorry about how lame it was that Kairi and Wakka were behind Tidus. I couldn't think of anything better. Well review- I love hearing your opinions!
