"The language of love is understood by all."
Chapter 3
Riku peeks through his bangs at Kairi and sees her wipe at her eyes. Seeing her sad makes him uncomfortable and he asks softly, "What's wrong Kai?"
She blushes and looks up at him. "Nothing Riku." Putting on a mask of happiness she states, "What a beautiful night!"
"Uh huh.." He raises an eyebrow and lets it pass. "I didn't think you knew this beach?" / I didn't think anyone knew about this beach....its ours...Sora's and mine...why are you here?!/ He frowns slightly.
"Oh, I just stumbled upon it. It's really nice, I might come here more often...if that's alright with you." The red head could tell from his tone that Riku considered this his territory.
"Why would I care?" Riku, already bored and irritated, tried to change the subject before this stupidity when on any longer. "Have you seen Sora? I didn't see him in school today and he wasn't home when I called." / Great, like I really wanna talk to Kairi about Sora. Smooooth. But he's all I seem think about these days../
Smiling at the mention of Sora, she told him she hasn't seen him either. / Maybe if we talk about Sora, this conversation won't feel so weird. /
"Oh...well I gotta get some sleep. You should go too Kairi. .....Well, it was nice talking to you." Riku gets into Ragnarok and looks at the startled girl one last time before he pushes off.
********
The next day, Riku wakes up to his blaring alarm. It's some punky song. They all sound the same nowadays. He slaps the snooze button and stretches. Another day of monotonous crap that he will won't even remember the next week.
He always wakes up an hour before school to go running. It frees his mind of the meddlesome dreams he has of Sora every night. After putting on a hoodie and grasping his portable cd player, he sets out. Pushing play, he launches himself from his porch. The notes of his favorite Rob Zombie song pound into his head as his feet fly over the sidewalk. The boy sighs and starts to widen his strides. Oblivious of the rest if the world, Riku doesn't see the boy in his path, and he finds himself running head first into the brunette. "Yowww!" He groans, picking himself up off the concrete. His notices that his knee is scraped and is looking for the asshole who tripped him up. His mind goes blank when he sees who his next victim is.
