Chapter 5: I don't care
Sora stared at his white haired friend, frozen. He honestly didn't know what to do. How much had the other boy heard? He probably just fucked up a friendship.
"How much did you hear?" Sora asked meekly, his throat thick with fear.
"Pretty much everything." Riku said, smiling uneasily and running his fingers through his hair. Sora's heart dropped to his stomach. Everything. Sora cursed under his breath and looked away. He was more than just a bit surprised, however, when he heard Riku chuckle.
"Sora, it's okay." he said, sitting next to his friend. Sora looked back at him, his eyes widened in surprise.
"Look, it's just as you said, right? Just a physical thing? No emotion behind it?" Riku said. Sora nodded slowly. Riku reached over and ruffled his hair, grinning.
"Then it's no big deal. Just your hormones." he said. Sora frowned.
"But Riku! I..." he said. Riku chuckled.
"...want to kiss me? Big deal. It's just a kiss. You could want worse." he said, standing.
"What about the dare?' Sora asked. Riku looked at him over his shoulder.
'Well, that's still in effect. Nothing has changed...except maybe your punishment, but that's only slight." he said. Sora whined.
"Tell me, Riku!" he said, pouting. Riku chucked.
"I don't think so, little Sora." he said, poking his friend's nose. Sora frowned.
"Meanie." he said, grinning. The awkwardness was just a little bit now. "So still want to kiss me?" Riku said, grinning. Ooh...never mind! Sora flushed and looked away, not saying anything. Riku nodded and sighed.
"Thought so." he said, putting his hands on his hips.
"Alright." he said. Sora's face turned completely red.
"What?!" he squeaked. Riku raised an eyebrow.
"What do you mean, what?" he retorted.
"I just...I mean...it's..." sora stuttered.
"You want to kiss me, well, I'm letting you. It's that simple." Riku said. Sora poked his bottom lip out.
"It's not the same if you don't want it." he said, his cheeks tinged red.
"Fine, I want you to kiss me, Sora!" Riku said, putting his hands on his friend's shoulders. Sora looked in his friend's eyes.
"Do you really?" he whispered. Riku leaned forwards and pressed his lips to Sora's. Sora's eyes went wide, and he stared into the other boys. When he felt Riku's tongue run across his bottom lip, he knew this was no joke. Riku really had wanted him to kiss him. Now he felt bad.
The brunette closed his eyes and began to kiss the other boy back, parting his lips when he felt the others tongue run over them again. Riku's tongue slid into his mouth and began to expertly duel with Sora's. The younger let out a mewl of mixed surprise and joy. The boy was such a good kisser. He had no idea where Riku had gotten that sort of expertise. Probably from kissing a lot of girls. The boy did look really pleasing, don't ya know.
Sora had the heart rate pukey thing again. This time, however, it was from lack of air. Despite the fun he was having, he needed to breathe! The brunette pulled away from his friend's lips and drew in a gulp of air. Hello, oxygen!
"Wow." Sora panted out. Riku raised an eyebrow. Sora noticed the look and just waved him down.
"Eh, it's probably because that was my first kiss." he said. Riku rolled his eyes.
"Yeah, right. Keep telling yourself that." he said, sitting down next to Sora.
"Not so bad yourself. You could use a little work, but, hey. There is always room for improvement." Riku said. Sora just laid back, looking up at his ceiling.
The two sat in surprisingly comfortable silence for a few moments. Sora, soon, broke the silence.
"Hey, Riku? Wanna go build a raft?" he said, grinning. Riku chuckled and shook his head.
"No way, man. Not after what happened last time. Seeing other worlds was good, but, not worth the price I had to pay." he said.
"We were gone for over a year..." Sora said. Riku nodded.
"I still remember the shock in your mom's voice when we got back." the other said. Sora shook her head.
"I almost feel bad for how I came home. You only heard everything, cause you were blindfolded." Sora said.
"I burst in the front door, you slung over my shoulder, blood, sweat and rain running down my skin and clothes, the keyblade slung over my other shoulder and told her I was home. She cried for a week." the brunette finished quietly.
"I had no idea." Riku said. Sora scoffed.
"It explains why I haven't ever worn that outfit again." he murmured, turning over on his side.
"What happened to it?"
"Burned it."
The once comfortable silence was now pregnant with discomfort.
"I know the fighting wasn't easy for you, Sora." Riku said, empathy in his voice.
"None of my memories from those times were pleasant. Especially after I came in contact with Ansem. Let's just say, that's how I became so skilled." Riku said. Sora looked at his friend.
"He didn't..." he trailed off, leaving the obvious question hanging in the open. Riku chuckled and shook his head.
"No. He may have been a heartless, but, he did have some sense of morality. It never went that far, but, it did get pretty bad at times." he said.
Sora bit his lip, kind of wishing that he had never brought up the raft joke. It had now turned into a confessional. But, it also explained why Riku was okay with his slight physical attraction. He was sure that had it been more to the point where he wanted to sleep with Riku, the brunette might as well have been Ansem.
"He could have been attractive, if there wasn't that insane gleam in his eyes." Riku mused, turning his head to the side. It was almost sick listening to Riku muse about his almost rapist. Sora let him, however, because he knew that would be on Riku's mind for a long time and this was just a natural way to try and get over it.
"So, when are you gonna come out of the closet?" the silver haired boy asked. Sora blinked and looked at him oddly.
"Huh?" he said.
"You are gay, aren't you?" Riku asked, raising his eyebrow. Sora recoiled in shock.
"What? NO!" he said.
"Bi?" Riku pressed on. Sora grabbed his hair in frustration.
"I...I dunno!" he whined.
"Don't you?" Riku pressed on.
"No! You're the only guy I've ever liked!" Sora blurted out. Riku quirked his eyebrow again.
"What about girls?" He asked.
"I kinda liked Kairi before the whole Kingdom Hearts thing." Sora said. "Don't believe me, check the secret cave."
"I've seen it already." Riku said flatly. Sora blinked. Did the other boy sound just a bit pissed about that? The silver haired boy just shook his head.
"I dunno, sounds like you're bi, Sora." Riku said, grinning. Sora stuck out his bottom lip.
"You could be a special case." he defended weakly. Riku snorted.
"Doubt it." he said.
"What? You're cute. Well, not cute..but...ahh..." Sora said, trying to think of a work that wouldn't offend the other boy. Magnificent! Glorious! Punctual!!
"Punctual!" Sora said quickly.
"Punctual?" Riku said, looking at the other boy oddly. GAH! WRONG!
"Beautiful." Sora said, shaking his head. Nice recovery. Riku shrugged and laid down.
"Whatever you say, man." he said. Sora tilted his head to the side.
"What about you?" he asked. Riku looked over at his friends eyes.
"Well, that's my secret." he said, closing his eyes. Sora almost fell over. That was Riku for you.
"Well, it's getting late. And we have school tomorrow." Riku said, sitting up.
"See you in the morning." the elder boy said, opening Sora's window to jump out.
"Hey, Riku?" Sora spoke up. Riku looked over his shoulder.
"Yeah?" he asked.
"Don't...tell anyone, okay?" he asked sheepishly. Riku stared at him a moment and then chuckled.
"Alright." he said before he jumped out.

His arms were heavy around my waist. I looked up and saw nothing but blue. Deep, cold, piercing blue, and traces of something soft and silver. A smile came over thin, pink lips and they closed in on mine. I gladly accepted the kiss, moaning lightly against the expert lips of the other. A warm, wet tongue slid into my mouth and began to work against my own slick muscle, seeming to map out every corner and inch.
All too soon, the kiss was over and I stood back, looking up slightly to get a good look at my...lover?
It was Riku. And for some reason, this didn't scare me. It made me happy. I leaned against him heavily as we walked down the beach of our tree house. .
"Hey, Riku?" I spoke up, getting his attention.
"Yeah?" he responded gently, smiling down at me.
"What do you think of Kairi?" I asked, a bit worried of his answer.
- -
"God, Sora! You're gonna catch a cold if you keep leaving this thing open!" Riku scolded the other boy, closing the window. Sora's eyes slid open and he yawned largely, slightly miffed at being woken from that nice dream.
"Get up, lazy ass!" Riku said, laughing and pulling off the comforter. Sora yelped. He wasn't naked this morning, but, it was still cold!!
"Alright, you should be awake now." Riku said, walking over to the pile of costumes he had set out.
"Which one?" he said. Sora sat up and held his head. This was it. He had spent sometime after Riku had left thinking about this.
"Riku...I have something to tell you." he said, looking at him.
"Okay, shoot." he said, looking between the green tights and the card suit.
"I'm giving up. You win." he said. Riku looked up at Sora sharply.
"What?" he hissed in shock.
"I'm giving up. You win the dare."

Ooh, lookie! Another mean cliffie, but, have no fear. I don't actually post these things until Friday, Saturday, or Sunday...so..to make up for last week, I'll post this one on Friday, the next on Saturday, and (hopefully) the next on Sunday! ^_^ How does that sound??
I JUST LOVE ALL THE REVIEWS! I should write more Kingdom Hearts stuff. 42 and only 4 chapters? *dies from happiness* ^_^ I feel all warm and fuzzly. But, hey, if you like this stuff and are even slightly into Yu Gi Oh, go check out my other crap. I tend to stay to Bakura/Ryou or Yami/Bakura. ^_^. But, I'm open to almost anything NOT involving Honda or Anzu. ; Honda's okay, just no personality...and...I dun like Anzu. WONDER FRIEND POWERS, ACTIVATE! XD. I should write a humour YGO fic. I usually write angst. ^^;; then it's easier for me to get descriptive cause I'm an angsty person.
Oh, look, I rambled again. Bah. Oh, and gomen nasai, but, I dun think I'm going to write a lemon for this. ^_^ I know you all want to see hot bishies getting it on (well, Sora's a cute bishie, not a hot bishie) but, I can't write one. Not yet. Not for humour based. Just lots of nice kissing and maybe a lil jack off scene, but, that's about as far as I'll go. If I ever get around to writing a full blown angst KH fic, I'll probably throw a lemon in there. I like emotional crap, especially when it's angsty like emotions. ^_^. In fact, it's a lemon that's holding me up from updating "Knife in my Heart" /).o;;. I can write lemons okay, but, I dun like doing it. I'm not squeamish, I just...don't like doing it.
FUCK! I rambled again. I hate when I do that. I'm actually surprised you guys read all this stuff anyway...*scratches the back of her head and then shrugs* Ah well, anyway.
WHAT TO EXPECT NEXT CHAPPIE! (Then I'll shut up, I promise): Riku's reaction (duhr), another round of music class (only with a different teacher) more cameo appearances annnndddd....THE BEGINNING OF SORA'S PUNISHMENT! Or maybe the whole thing...depends on how long it gets. ^_^;;
Okee, I'm done now.
Carry on, keep romancing, carry on, carry on dancing.
