Konnichiwa Minna-san! Gomen for not updating sooner! . I'm so bad at updating. I kinda got into the FFX-2 thing and then forgot about all other games for a while (and I still haven't beaten that bloody girlie game! -_- ;;)
I hope you all had a nice holiday no matter what you celebrate, whether it be Christmas, Hanukkah or Kwanzaa. ^_^ I guess mine was decent, but not the best. Oh well, gifts aren't everything I guess, so I decided I'm going to try to update as many of my fics as possible! And this was just begging for an update...Hehe, so here it is. The final installment of my Riku x Sora mini-trilogy! XD LOL Damn, I'm one crazy git. O.o;;
Ok, hope you all like it! Enjoy!
AN: Still in Sora's POV. And I will get fluffy, mushy, and sweet in this chappie. Sorry, if it gets too corny for your liking.....I'll keep it at a minimum.

- Kinds of Love - part 3
Sora's POV-
I was now running back towards the fire, trailing behind Riku since I had a late start. When I finally re-joined them Riku was panting and said, "Guess you're the rotten egg tonight Sora."
I gave him a sarcastically angry look, "Haha, like being the 'rotten egg' means anything."
"It does," Riku grinned, "It means, you once again, lost to me!" He stood up and took a fake bow while blowing kisses to his imaginary audience. We all laughed and I watched him more adoringly than usual.
Once we all settled down the group then remembered exactly why I had gone to the island in the first place. They all focused on me and Selphie asked excitedly, "So, did you get it?!"
I took the yellow fruit out of my pocket and stared at it in wonder. All this time the fruit was just a fruit to me, but now it seemed like a bit more. Ever since we were little kids we'd all talk about the legend of the paopu fruit, and the one question that still plagued us today was, is it true? Did you really intertwine destinies with the person you shared it with?
I thought about this long and hard, and I knew, if I had to find out, I definitely wanted it to be with Riku.
All these thoughts ran through my head as I looked at the paopu fruit. Finally Kairi brought me back to my senses. You could tell she was still mad at me, "Hey Dumbhead! Are you ever going to finish your dare?"
I glared back at her and I was about to say something when Riku said, "Ah Kairi, just let him take his time..." He smiled, she rolled her eyes and replied,
"Fine..."
In front of the fire I stood. The flames reflecting in everyone's eyes as they watched me intently. The paopu fruit was in my hand, and I took a bite out of it. The sweet taste took over my senses and as I swallowed I knew the only person who was even close to being that sweet to me was Riku. Corny as that sounds, I knew it was true.
To make the group sit in suspense for awhile longer I walked around pretending to think about who I'd share it with. From person to person I stopped. When I reached Wakka he even said, "It better not be me ya!" We all laughed, but I reassured him that he wasn't my choice. In fact he was far, far from it.
After doing this a couple of times Kairi complained again, "Can we get this overwith?" And then I stopped in front of her. She gasped and smiled a little as I held the fruit out towards her. "Me?" She questioned. I slowly began to nod my head, and then saw Riku's fake smile. His feelings were so easily deciphered, his face showed everything, I knew I couldn't hurt him. Even if he did tell me to share it with Kairi. Now was the time for my surprise.
Kairi took the yellow fruit from me and as she was about to sink her teeth into it, I grabbed it from her and turned to Riku. Everyone's eyes widened in shock as I took his hand and placed the half-eaten fruit in his hand. The deepest shade of red possible swept across his cheeks and he repeated what Kairi said, "Me?"
This time I nodded, "Yeah, it's always been you Riku. I thought about it and, if I have to find out if the legend of the Paopu fruit is true. You're the one I want to find out with."
Riku gulped nervously. It was funny because he'd never get nervous. The other's looked in shock and awe as he took a bite out of the fruit. My heart was beating so fast as he swallowed it and once he did he stood up and.... hugged me. "I love you..." He whispered into my ear, and I returned the hug and feelings, "I love you too..."
Selphie squealed in sheer delight of seeing the two like that. Tidus and Wakka we're whispering rapidly to each other, but out of the muttering you could hear, "So that's they hang out alone so much..." Kairi though, was a different story. Before anyone could notice she had already got up and left.
"Should we go after her?" I asked Riku.
"Nah, she can take care of herself." He grasped my hand, "I... want to talk to you about this." He looked to the others, "Away from them though..."
I smiled and gave a slight nod to say that I was ok with this. Then he started to run towards our secret place, and I struggled behind him since he was still holding my hand.
We pushed the ivy away from the entrance and walked through the tunnel until we reached the clearing and Riku sat down. He patted a spot in front of him to signal for me to sit there. Like his obedient puppy I listened and took my spot. We both sat cross-legged in silence. Then I asked, "You think it's true?"
Riku shot a weird look at me, "What do you mean?"
"I mean, the paopu fruit thing... You think it's true?"
"Hmm..." Riku thought, "Well, I like to believe it's true." He smiled, "It's so romantic!" He mocked Selphie. Laughter echoed through the cave, then once again fell in silence. I don't think we've ever had an awkward silence in our whole lives.
Right now I was looking away from Riku. My face was so hot from blushing. I couldn't believe I actually told him. My breathing gradually started to become deep breaths and right when I was about to turn back to my silver- haired boy, he had leaned forward and pressed his lips to mine.
My first kiss... I thought to myself. At first my eyes widened and I couldn't move. I've never been more nervous in my life, but soon the feeling grew onto me. I relaxed and closed my eyes as his hands ran through my hair and his tongue sought entrance to my mouth. Where did Riku learn this?
Since I panicked mentally, I froze physically. Riku broke the kiss and laughed when he saw my expression. "You don't have to be so shocked Sora." He grinned, "But you liked it didn't you?"
I knew it. I was finally at the bursting point, my blush had officially reached my ears, "I couldn't help it... It felt right." I mumbled.
"Good, it should feel right." Riku laid down and put his arms behind his head. He closed his eyes and smiled, "You want to lay down with me? I'll let you put your head on my chest..." He winked.
Before he even finished his sentence I had already positioned myself beside him on his left side. My hair lay sprawled out on his chest and my left arm was across his stomach. His heartbeat rang in my ear, and soon I could feel our hearts synchronize. My arm rose and descended with every breath he took. He was falling asleep.
"Riku?"
"Hmm?"
"How did you find out that you...."
"Loved you?"
"Yeah. How did you figure out that you loved me?"
"Well, I've always thought that there were different kinds of love. Y'know, there's family love, I care about you love, brotherly love, I'm in love with you love. And, just when I got to thinking about it, I realized I felt every type of love possible for you, even the 'I'm in love with you' love."
I smiled to myself as Riku said this and wrapped his arm around me. "Wanna know something Riku?"
"Of course."
"What you said right there was so corny..."
He laughed as did I, "It was wasn't it?"
"Yeah, but I liked it anyway..."
"Hm... I thought you would. After all, you're like definition of corny."
"Shut-up!"
"Make me!" Riku got up and ran out of the cave laughing. "Come and get me, if you can." He yelled in the tunnel.
I just sat there and watched him get away. "Why do I need to catch you?" I picked up a rock and started to draw a carving on the stone wall, "When you're already mine?"
The stone I was using scratched and scratched at the wall, leaving white lines where I made them. After a few minutes the scratching stopped and I backed away from the wall to look at my work. I smiled at my picture before I threw the rock back to the ground and leaving to chase Riku.
On the wall was a picture, of Riku and I sharing the paopu fruit...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Aw... I hope you all liked the ending. I really wasn't sure on how to end it, but I'm sort of pleased with it. ^_^ I thought it was cute. I was watching my friend Stacey play it and I was practically chanting for those two to share the paopu. XD LOL
I dunno if I'll ever write a sequel to this. Possibly I'll add an epilogue on here to it, but that's not really one of my top priorities. Right now, I'm just trying to finish all my fics so I can start another one. ^_^
Well, all-in-all it was fun writing this short little trilogy. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I have! For the last time on this fic, THANKS EVERYONE FOR YOUR GREAT REVIEWS!!! and RikuxSora forever!!! ^_~ Ja ne!
