Okees! I tried to get on chapter 6 as soon as I could, as busy as I was. A lot of you really seemed to like chapter 5, so I'll try to keep that funny/dramatic attitude I had then more often. ^_^ Please enjoy!

"Y-Yeah…" Riku replied nervously, scratching the back of his head.

Sora thought it'd be a few days at least before Riku would talk to him again…But Riku was the sweet, forgiving kind…he supposed. Whatever the reason, he was right there in front of him, outside his window. Sora gave him an uneasy, welcoming smile.

"U-umm…so…" Sora began, doing his best to casually keep his eyes on Riku's.

Riku took in a deep breath, then released it, quietly pulling himself through Sora's window, while Sora took the small bit of time to slip a pair of shorts on.

Riku stood in Sora's room for a second, staring at the floor as if searching for what exactly it was he wanted to say.

Sora looked up at him, feeling the air grow thick and the oxygen depleting around them. Was he that nervous just from seeing Riku? He sat himself on his bed, ruffling the sheets next to him offering Riku a seat. Riku shook his head, continuing to stand there with his arms crossed and his mind trying to focus.

"Uh, what is it Riku?" Sora asked softly.

"…I have a reason."

Sora sweatdropped, obviously knowing that, and noticed Riku was just as uptight as he was. He watched as Riku wiped his forehead as if he was hot.

"…Can I…get you some water?" Sora offered.

"Your mom's out there, stupid. It's just the humidity, I'm fine."

"R-Right…" Sora nodded his head, agreeing simply, trying to avoid any more tension than there already was.

"Well…hmm, oh get this…!"

Sora rolled his eyes, but laughed on this inside. It was so funny to see Riku, mister serious of the island, dragging something out like he was.

"What?" Sora asked, waiting patiently for the real reason Riku was there.

"Tidus paid me a visit…" Riku sweatdropped.

Sora immediately face faulted to the floor, now afraid as hell that Tidus said something stupid…like he usually does. He gulped.

"Errr….what did he say?" Sora asked nervously.

"…Huh? Normal stupid stuff. I couldn't really understand what exactly he was trying to tell me. Anyway…that's not why I'm here, ahaha." Riku fidgeted with his foot.

Sora face faulted once more.  That Tidus gave him a scare for no reason…? He hoped so, anyhow. So then, what was it Riku wanted to say that couldn't wait till morning? Could he…

"S-So what are you here for, Riku?" Sora asked, the suspense from the wait killing him on the inside.

Riku sighed and tilted his head upward, the moonlight really bringing out the beautiful color of his eyes. Sora was afraid his body would react before he could hear Riku out.

"F-Forget it, I need to get home before my own mother pitches a fit at me. You know how she can be." Riku sighed, sticking one leg through the window.

"N-No!" Sora quickly pulled him back in without thinking…and accidentally slipped on the sheets.

"Ack!" Riku clumsily tumbled backward as well, falling on top of his brown-haired friend, his chest on top of Sora's bare one.

The two boys lie in that very inconvenient position longer than expected from either of them. Sora's heart raced like mad, feeling Riku's warmth, his eyes wide and looking upward at his silver-haired friend. He swallowed back any actions he was tempted so very much to do, and waited for Riku to get off.

To Sora's disappointment, Riku quickly did, and bowed.

"Crap, I'm sorry Sora!" Riku's face was bright red.

Sora blushed as well, staring at Riku, who was avoiding any eye contact at all at that point, cursing himself for losing his balance rather than Sora's pulling him back.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to…pull you back, I…just wanted to know what it was you wanted to say…I mean, why come here and worry your mother for no reason…right…?" Sora said, trying to make his sentence sound reasonable. 

"……..I just wanted to say…I was sorry, I guess." Riku answered, turning his head to face out the window, stepping onto the windowsill.

"Sorry…?" Sora felt like he'd just deflated. That was it…?

"Yeah…I shouldn't of pushed you. And…that I shouldn't have gotten so upset that you…" Riku looked back at Sora, who had a rather saddened look stuck on his face.

"…That you like…me…" Riku's finished, quietly.

Sora hurried over to his window when Riku hopped out, and smiled as he turned around instead of just disappearing.

"Thanks, Riku. I'm sorry, too…I shouldn't of, umm, kissed you. We can still be friends, right…?" Sora cupped his hands over his heart, praying the answer was yes.

"Of course," Riku exclaimed without having to stop and think, "…and…I'll think…about being more…I mean, just because you feel that way, okay? It's only fair to you, I suppose…" Riku rolled his eyes at himself. That didn't come out quite right.

Sora was so happy though; he accidentally let a little fan girl squeal escape his lips.

"R-Really…Riku…? You're the best friend anyone could ever have!" Sora smiled widely, his heart swelling, throwing his arms around Riku and planting a small kiss on his cheek.

Riku sweatdropped, forcing himself not to react to the kiss, and just pushed Sora back onto his bed gently, with a straight face.

"Don't get all mushy with me, okay? I said I'd think…and don't have your hopes too high! I mean, that'd mean I was…"

"Gay…?" Sora finished for him with an innocent look.

Riku's face flushed, and he patted Sora's head with more force than wanted.

"Sleep tight!" Riku said quickly, turning around.

Well DUH… Sora thought to himself. No such thing as a straight guy liking other guys.

"Oh umm, wait, Riku…?" Sora ducked his head, peeking over the windowsill.

"……What?"

"Could we hang out tomorrow…?" Sora blinked with big eyes.

"…Sure. You, me, and Kairi! Like always." Riku smiled, then ran off quickly.

…K…KAIRI?!?

Sora fell back onto his bed, with a grunt. …But then was overtaken with happier feelings, as a wide grin spread across his face.

I love you, Riku…
