Disclaimer: If I owned Kingdom Hearts, would I be writing this? Uh, no
because this actually would be happening in Kingdom Hearts if I did- well
maybe not this but, Riku and Sora would defiantly be together. Also, Kairi
wouldn't be such a Mary Sue, I would portray her as a total bitch, which if
you notice, I'm trying to do in this fic. I know, I rant about her too
much. I'll stop now.
Pairing: Sora/Riku
Author's Note: Heh, I'm a bit cooled down after that flame. Jeeze though, I'm sick of the whole flames about the pairing Riku/Sora. Do I flame Sora/Kairi or Riku/Kairi fan fictions? Uh, no. I rant too much about those fics though so I won't in this A/N lol. Anyways, I'm trying to make this a bit more angsty- seems to happy and perfect at the moment. Hmmm... I'm trying! Lol anyways, on with the fic!
Right now, I'm listening to Don't Let Me Get Me by Pink- something about that song just reminds me of well- me! I hate myself at times, hate everything about me, so I can totally relate to it. Anyways, here you go!

Parting Of The Ways
Chapter 15: Riddles
Riku and Sora had been kissing for about ten minutes since Riku's mother left them. The older of the two glanced at his watch. They should start heading over towards Sora's for whatever his mother was going to do for them tonight.
"Sora?" Sora stopped kissing him and looked into those green eyes.
"Yeah?"
"Let's start heading towards your house." He said as he picked up his jacket off of the floor in the corner where he had laid it earlier. "We can just hang out until your mom wants us to eat whatever it is that she made." Sora smiled and walked after Riku, grasping his hand firmly in his.
They walked out the door- hand in hand.
Tidus and Selphie were sitting on the railing of the bridge as the crossed it, smiling at the two boys holding hands. It was so nice to know that their "true" friends supported them and thought the romance was a sweet one.
Both Riku and Sora smiled at the couple as they past them, Riku flashing his famous smirk, while Sora just blushed and continued on smiling.
Selphie was wondering what those two were up to now. Hopefully, if they were going to make out, they would do it some more private this time. Although, she wouldn't mind seeing it, it would be really romantic, but she didn't think that Tidus could handle something so mature as she could. Especially when it was between two guys! Selphie didn't think that she would be able to watch two girls making out right before her very eyes.
Selphie smiled and watched the two walking together. Just as they were about to finally reach the other part of the island, she called out to them. "Where are you guys going?"
Riku shook his head, why did that girl always have to be so nosy?
"To Sora's." Riku didn't look back, but just held Sora's hand tighter. Finally, noticing that the two didn't really want to talk to her, Selphie gave up and just embraced Tidus instead of trying to yell anything else at the two.
The younger boy stopped and turned to the other as they got off of the bridge. "Riku, I'm going to sneak out tonight so I can be with you. Already, we've been sleeping together for the whole time we've been a couple. And I love you, and I need you to be with me."
Sora had always snuck out a lot to Riku's when they were little. True, he did live on the third floor of house (remember, they're richer than Sora and have a very nice house!), but right next to his window was this beautiful rose trellis. It was the perfect way to sneak into his room, the trellis went from his window, all the way down to the ground.
Riku's mother had always adored that trellis, and had noticed that something was up whenever she would go outside to water it, noticing some of her most prized roses crushed. Thankfully, it wasn't time for them to bloom, so Sora wouldn't have to take that risk on crushing the roses and letting Riku's mother notice him sneaking into her son's room so that he could sleep with him.
The silver haired boy smiled and hugged Sora, almost smothering him once more. Sora struggled against him, feeling uncomfortable because he was being hugged again. After that experience from before, he didn't want to take any chances any time soon.
"Riku!" The boy tried to pull away and was struggling against the other boy.
Riku was currently just laughing like it was no big deal. Obviously, he didn't notice how much Sora didn't want to be hugged at the moment. Not after that other experience.
"Oh sorry, Sora!" Riku pulled away, letting Sora breathe. Maybe he should stop with all the hugging and maybe kiss him more. Sora now seemed to have hug-a-phobia.
"Sora? You'd do that for me?" Riku smiled and nuzzled Sora's neck.
"Riku, I'd do anything for you. You know that right? Although, I don't think I would be able to sleep tonight if I didn't have you by my side." Sora kissed the top of Riku's head lightly.
"Sure I know that." Riku put his arms around Sora's neck and pulled him into a tight embrace, pulling him towards his chest and pressing the brunette boy against him. He tried hard not to get it to where it looked like he was suffocating though, because then, Sora wouldn't like it.
Sora looked into his eyes. Those eyes held so much pain and had seen so wrong. Riku was the strongest person Sora knew. After all, he had been locked up in Kingdom Hearts for almost a year, until Sora had found him an inch near death behind those silver doors. Riku had been calling his name out when Sora had found him. It had been one of the worst sights the younger boy had ever seen.
Riku had been possessed and had his body taken over by Ansem. He wasn't in control of his actions, only a puppet of the darkness such as Maleficent had been. The poor boy had been unable to do anything on his own, and had been constantly thinking of Sora. The only thought that kept him alive.
Also, it had just dawned on Sora about how much Riku must have felt left out. He and Kairi had left him out a lot. And Sora was always his best friend, probably the whole start of the feelings toward him. Riku was feeling as if losing his best friend, and didn't want that to happen. He wanted Sora all to himself, nobody else could have him.
And for who was he leaving him for?
Kairi.
That word now stung Sora. She had been one of his best friends. She was even at one time his silly boyhood crush. But the two were just friends, he didn't want to lose that friend because she was a good one. Why should his relationship with Riku ruin something special that the two had?
There was hatred for her, and still the love that he had always had for her as a friend. The boy was between a rock and hard place, not knowing which side to choose from. Sure, he could side with Riku, his lover, and hate Kairi. But, that didn't seem like a good solution. Of course, Riku would be upset if Sora went back to being friends with her again, as if she had done nothing wrong. So he had to choose- Kairi or Riku.
Riku's more important to you right? His conscience told him.
No! Drop the boy and get with the girl! His shoulder devil sneakily told him, as Sora tried ignoring it and telling himself Riku was more important. Of course he was. Sora knew that.
"Shutup!" Sora said out loud and Riku released him quickly.
"Sorry. What did I say though?" The silver haired boy looked extremely confused at the moment.
"Oh sorry. I was talking to myself. I didn't mean you." Sora blushed madly noticing that Riku most likely wouldn't believe that unless he told him about everything he was thinking over.
"Okay? Sounds just like you." Riku went on walking, as Sora tried to catch up quickly.
"Riku! I didn't mean you! I was talking to myself. Just that well.... uh, you know how I do that a lot." Riku smiled at that.
"You talk in your sleep too. Did you know that?" They both laughed.
"Really? What do I talk about. How hot you are? How I'm dreaming of you and me making out? How you-"
The other boy stopped him. "No, I wish. You mostly talk about food. What a surprise." They laughed some more, as Riku clutched his stomach and fell down into the sand, bringing Sora with him.
Sora was now holding onto Riku's chest as it violently shook up and down from all of his laughter. It was nice to hear him laugh. Usually he was so serious. Sora wasn't going to give him up- especially for Kairi's friendship.
If he wanted to be friends with her, that would mean breaking up with Riku. No, he wouldn't resort to that.
The two laid there in the sand until Riku glanced at his watch once more and noticed the time. "Sora, let's get to your house. It's getting late you know."
"Sure." Sora picked himself up off of Riku and brushed the sand off of himself. Then, without waiting for Riku, he headed off towards the direction of his house. Riku also forced himself out of the sand, brushing off his back quickly and hurrying after Sora.
The two finally reached Sora's house, but left on the door was a sticky note with the message:
"Sorry, I had to leave for the night. I'll be back tomorrow. Can't fix your special dinner, but money's on the counter. Order out if you want."
"Hmmmm, that sucks." Riku murmured as he read over the note once more because Sora was still reading it. He knew really was much of a fast reader. "Let's go in anyways. I'm starving. We'll just have to order pizza or something."
Sora smiled at his boyfriend and turned the doorknob slowly and entered his house. He was followed closely by Riku when he turned around and collapsed into Riku's arms. He kissed his neck and chin quickly before coming up to his lips, nipping at them gently.
"Hmmm. That's nice, Sora. But, I'm starving. Let's eat something first." Sora stopped holding onto the boy and pouted. Riku ruffled his hair gently and turned around, going into the kitchen.
Instantly he spotted another sticky note on the counter where the money "should" have been. This time it read,
"Soft as a petal that falls from a tree, the wetter I get the dryer you become."
"What in the hell is that supposed to mean?" Riku glanced over the note once more, re-reading it over and over and over and over.
"You think I would know? Your the one who's good at riddles." Sora told Riku with a smirk. "I guess my mom's just screwing with our heads or something."
"What do you mean, I'm the one who's good at riddles? I suck at them. Hmmmm. Maybe it's some kind of game she's playing with us." Riku sat down in one of the kitchen chairs. "What's the method to her madness though?" Sora came down and sat on his lap.
"I dunno. Soft as a petal that falls from a tree...." He trailed off.
"The wetter I get, the dryer you become." Riku finished the statement.
"The hell if I know what that means." Sora frowned in confusion. His mother loved riddles, he should have known better. Only the more fun for her to starve him and his friend with. If they never found the money, how would they eat?
It wasn't like Sora carried around money. Riku did, but he wasn't about to head all the way back to his house to get his wallet. Sora's mother just had always bought him things for him. Quite ridiculous. He was 16 and didn't have money to buy his own things with.
The silver haired boy wrapped his arms around the others neck and held him closely. He was still thinking about what the hell that riddle meant. Neither one of them were very good at riddles.
Sora responded by leaning his head on the other boy's arm, breathing lightly on it. "Well, what's something soft?"
"You." Riku replied kissing Sora's head and laying his on top of Sora's. The two sat there, deep in thought about that confusing riddle for about ten minutes. Riku would occasionally brush the spiky brown hair with his hands gently while he was still in thought.
"Seriously, Riku!" Sora thought harder, scrunching his eye brows up and thrusting his lower lip outward. His very famous pout face.
"Stop, Sora! You know I can't stand that pout face of yours! Your making it hard to concentrate." Riku chuckled when Sora abruptly stopped pouting as his stomach growled.
"Okay, I understand the soft part. But what in god's name does: The wetter I get, the dryer you become? Hmmmm." Sora wiggled around on Riku's lap in confusion.
Sora stomach growled once more, interrupting the two boy's thoughts. "There's got to be something here to eat!" Sora yelled out, he was starving thanks to his mother's little riddle game.
While the very hungry Sora got up and checked the kitchen cabinets for any source of food that he would eat, Riku meanwhile, got up from the table and flipped on the switch to the computer.
"I wonder if there's any good websites for riddles." While waiting for the computer to hurry up and load Sora eventually came in announcing there wasn't anything worth eating.
The brunette boy laid down on top of Riku's head while watching him get on the internet, and desperately try to solve this stupid riddle. Poor Riku had no luck in solving this riddle, there weren't very many websites on Destiny Islands anyways.
Sora picked his head off of Riku's and suddenly realized the urge to use the bathroom.
"Jeeze, what a strange boy that one is." Riku told himself as he heard Sora washing his hands.
The younger boy came bursting out of the bathroom. "RIKU DUH! I KNOW WHAT IT IS!"
