Chapter 1 - Just having fun
(Kairi POW)
I was sitting on one of Destiny Islands lovely beaches. The sun was shining high in the sky, it was clearly a beautiful day. Actually one of those really hot ones too. I felt my bare shoulder take in the heat and if I didn't move I probably would burn them. I was dressed in a beige bikini and small white shorts. My feet was down in the sand, playing with it between my toes. My light blue slip-in sandals lay next to me. I put up a hand to cover my cerulean eyes against the gazing sun.
It blow a cool breeze from the sea, followed by its fresh fragrance. It felt nice. The wind blow up a few of my lose strands of hair from my high ponnytail. Under the latest years I just let it grow freely and its length was now to my waist.
I used to sit here quite often, just watching the waves come in to the shore. It relaxed me and it was a perfect place to sort thoughts out in peace. Recently I had been sitting here more often then usual.
It had almost been a month now since Sora and Riku came walking down the shore from nowhere. It was one of the happiest days in my life. My two best friends had finally returned to me. Now I knew they wouldn't be taken away from me again. at least I hoped they wouldn't. I still hadn't gotten to know the reasons why and how they could come back to Destiny Islands. 'Sora had sealed the Kingdom Hearts and the doors between the worlds were looked right? What if they weren't?' I wondered, panic rising by the thought of those creepy heartless. 'No, they can't be back, then Sora, the keybarier would seal them in again.' I resoned with myself. 'But then, how did they come back?' "Ah, this thoughts don't do me any good," I said frustrated. I guess I just have to wait 'til Sora and Riku are ready to share there story. Whatever they had been through it wasn't pleasant. I could see that much in their blue eyes, which turned cold whenever I brought up the subject. Oh, I who had hoped so dearly that things just could go back to normal when they came back. I wanted it to be the old days, when it was the three of us.
This weren't the only reason why I sat here all alone thinking, I had an other unsolved... How was I to tell Sora that I really loved him, not just as friend... all of these three years alone waiting for him to returned had made me realise that I had fallen deeply in love with the all famous keybarrier.
Back before the whole nightmare about the heartless I couldn't figure out my feelings towards both Riku and Sora. They both have a special place in my heart, but I just didn't know who of the I love more. I just went on and on describing their personalities and trying to resonate with myself who I wanted to spend my life together with. It wasn't easy. Both Riku and Sora are special, but in their own way. First of all, they're completely opposite to each others personalities, which you could see easily. Riku was mysterious, exiting and very passionate in what he do or chose. His silver blonde hair that reached his shoulders was so charming and you could imagined its feeling like silk. A deep look of those clear sky-blue eyes and you were trapped forever.
Sora on the other hand was so damn cute with his naive and innocent appearance. He was caring, gentle and probably a lovely romantic if he could get past that shyness of his. His eyes as deep as the sea, which you could drown in and never reach the surface again. And that brown mop of hair on his head made him look even more cuter and a bit crazy too. I had always felt very relaxed whenever I was around him, he had this field that made you feel safe and secure. Of course both Riku and Sora looked like drop-dead gorgeous angels in my eyes and I was probably not alone thinking that either.
The last couple of days I had wanted to share my longing feelings, with a certain cobalt blue eyed boy. But the big problem here was, as it usually is, that I had no idea how he felt about me. I knew he had to felt something during his time as the keybarrier, because I had felt him so close to my heart. Of course the logical part was that we actually shared a heart then. And he was the one to opened mine too. But that painting of us in the secret place told me that he had really to feel something for me... at least he once had done that. I felt my face fall. I tried to push those thoughts away. Today I just wanted enjoy myself in the sun and that was exactly what I planing to do.
I could faintly see three, no, four figures fighting over something, out in the water a few meters in the big waves. I knew Wakka had teached Tidus his new found sport he called Blitzball, using then Wakkas blitzball. Tidus had surprisingly been a easy learned talent and proved to be even better then Wakka. So Wakka had been so damn stubborn as he was and tried getting better then Tidus, but know when our famous heroes had come back he didn't need to prove himself better then Tidus, since both Sora and Riku were inexperienced and therefor worse.
Suddenly a Blitzball came in top speed, against where I was sitting. I quickly shielded my eyes, trying to block the sudden attack. Wakka, Tidus and Selphie had trained me a bit under the latest year and I knew how to block a attack. The boll crashed against my both hands and landed a few meters away from me. I looked up from my hands to see if it was safe again. Slowly and carefully I got up to my feet and looked around. The Blitzboll beside was still spinning slightly in the sand. I sighed in relief. Just when I that it was safe to sit down again an other Blitzball came against me. Now ready for my attack I quickly stood in blocking position again. I was lucky, the ball missed me by inches, but just happened to make a wave of sand over me instead. 'Just great' I sighed. And started to dust the sand off me.
I looked up again, still in a blocking position, when I noticed that a boy with coffee coloured hair started running towards me. He had a big grin plastered on his usually happy face. He reached up hand to wave and I did the same.
"Hey Kai, what's up?" He said. His voice not even hoarsely after his intense running. He was in a really good shape after his adventures saving worlds, which you could see by his athletic body of his.
"Hey," I mumbled back. I looked down at my white shorts, still covered in sand. I continued to dust myself off a few times. I looked up and smiled at him, despite my discomfort of wearing sandy clothes.
"You're not upset over that, huh?" he said cheerlessly, meaning my clothes. He coughed slightly, trying to look as innocent as possible.
I looked questioning at him. He was trying to hide something, I could see him holding back a big grin. I could always sense if he was hiding something, it was the same with Riku... these guys can never lie to me. Then I suddenly knew what he was hiding...
"Hey! You guys throw those Blitzballs on me on purpose?!" I asked, already knowing the answer. I also knew the others could her my outburst, since they started to laughing back there. 'They're so gonna pay for this,' I thought bitterly.
Sora didn't say anything, his grin he had tried keeping in hide disappeared. He held his lips closed. 'Those damn kissable lips,' I thought kicking myself in the process. 'I shouldn't be thinking like this now, maybe later though,' I mused. He turned around and looked at the others for help, but they only shook their head and even laughed harder. I turned my gaze to them and they quickly grow quite.
My lips formed to a little grin of their own, when I suddenly got a crazy idea. My eyes travelled down his body, his nice toned chest and stomach and later to his sides, where I knew by experience was his most ticklish place. 'Poor Sora,' I thought and smiled.
He looked at me just in time to catch the wink and his face turned into a look of horror. "No, Kairi... Please it was just a joke, don't..." he stammered and then the chase was in action.
My long legs sprout forward, ready to take on my assault. I knew he was a fast runner and that was his advantage, but over the years I had trained and gotten a pretty good runner too. Maybe not just as fast as Sora or Riku, but they had after all started training years ago.
Sora ran fast over the beach, trying to shake me of him. It was clearly that he was surprised that I actually could run pretty fast too. The sand flew everywhere when we came running by the others.
I noticed that Sora tried to take the most difficult ways, so I would have hard time running fast. I saw Sora almost tripping over a few twigs and rocks, I guess his plan of making it harder for me backfired.. He looked so funny and clumsy when he tried shaking a twig that had stuck on his foot. I laughed. I had to hold back a laugh at that.
Sora looked backwards and gave me one of those rare smiles of his. Those smiles that made my knees buckle and go weak. And that was my mistake. I tripped on a small twig, probably one of the twigs Sora had had troubles with earlier. I lost my balanced and fell down on my knees, sending a spray of sand around me. I looked up to see where Sora went. He had stopped far away from me, catching his breath, while looking towards me with a big grin on his lips. I shifted my eyes towards the others.
Wakka, Tidus and Riku had gone back to their former laughing and could barely stand up straight. I knew we acted like we were fourteen again, but wasn't I the one who, wanted it to go back like it was before the heartless. I was surprised to see Riku laughing again, even if wasn't as much as Tidus and Wakka. He had been so distant when he came back, not saying much at all. He liked to be alone a lot, of course he was like that before too. But I saw the difference in his eyes, he wasn't the same Riku anymore. Something had happened on their journey, what I didn't know. I wished I did though, then I wouldn't be so damn worry every time I saw him just walking off alone.
Turned my gaze towards Sora again, meeting his blue orbs. "Are you already giving up? And here I thought I might get a good workout," Sora teased and made a cute pout. He was pretending to be sad, but I knew he was just teasing me. I replied by just rolling my eyes. He started walking casually to me.
"Sora and his teasing," I muttered quaintly, shaking my head. 'Well if he's gonna tease me, I'm sure gonna do the same' I thought still looking at Sora, who now wasn't more then a few meters from me. "You shouldn't tease me Sora," I teased and continued. "I thought you knew by now, I will get even if it was the last thing I do" I said with a playful hint in my voice. I gave him a seducing smile.
Sora blinked in surprise. I had caught him off guard and this made my lips go in a triumphing big grin. "And about giving up, well you already know that answer!" I shouted proudly.
I jumped up on my feet, ready to grab a hold of his arm but only received more then thin air. Apparently he got quicker reflexes then I had expected. I looked up and saw Sora already running a bit ahead of me. "So easy aren't you gonna get me!" I heard him scream. I started to run again. I was determined to get a hold of him, one because I had said I was going to, and two because I wanted to prove myself as a fighter too. I hadn't train the last year or two just to be proved weak anyway. I could protect of myself now, I wanted to be independent and not called too weak anymore.
Right now Sora was heading towards the houses, with me high in his heels. Selphie, who had been inside because of the heat, suddenly came out to see who was making all the noises. And Sora, who was trying to shake me of him and trying to avoid a stock on the road didn't see Selphie. Sora in his high speed ran right into her, knocking over in the progress. Both of them hit the ground hard.
And then there was me, who also was running very fast... I of course had problems trying to slow down my path. So in the end I landed on top of both Sora and Selphie, much to their discomfort.
It took me a few moments to recover from the fall and I slowly looked up. And when I did, I was received with a shock. My eyes got wide.
My face was barely inches from Sora's. I could feel his breath against my face, making the lose hair, which had fallen from its tail move slightly. I could even smell the scent of peppermint and vanilla from his breath. I saw that his eyes was closed, but the sign of faint redness on his cheeks told me that he also could feel I was as close to him as I knew I was. I could feel my chest getting crushed against his upperbody. I looked down at the position we were in. I was laying sideways over him, our heads right over each others. Slowly opened Sora his blue eyes and I looked up meeting them in a intense gaze. Cobalt eyes into cerulean ones. My heart was hammering so damn hard in my chest I swear Sora could hear its every beatings.
My own cheeks started to get flushed when his eyes travelled down to my pink lips and then back up to my eyes again. He leaned forward almost touching my lips but being so close. I felt my lips go dry, but if I was to lick my lips I would touch his lips with my tongue. I automatically I closed my eyes, waiting for the impact of his soft lips against my own. Time seemed to be going in slow-motion and that every slow second that passed felt like minutes or hours.
