Chapter 8
Kairi's room was amazing. Amy guessed the type of person she was just from glancing around. There were furry stuffed toys, cushions, and a big dressing table. From all this, Amy knew they were going to be friends. In fact, it was just like her old room when she looked around. Amy realised now what that click had meant, she was transforming back into her old self, the one which had faith and hope and wished all the time. The one that had made that promise to as good as dead mother, and intended on keeping it.
It was around noon, and the three friends, recently turned 4, were sitting on the Paopu Tree, as Sora wouldn't let Amy out of his sight,
"I made a promise and I intend to keep it." He had said, when Amy had grumbled about him waking her up dead early. They had just been talking there all day, like they had known each other for ever.
The day passed so quick, and finally Amy asked the question she had been bottling up ever since she witnessed Leon fight that day. "So, Sora, will you teach me how to fight one of these days?" Amy said. Sora looked up at Amy from his lying down position, and looked very uncomfortable.
"Sure, why not?" he replied, doing a sort-of shrug in the shoulder region. It was getting late. "I think I'm gonna head off for bed." She said.
"Yeah, me too. See ya in the mornin'" sora waved.
"Race you!" said Kairi, jumping up and running off.
"Hey! No fair! You got a head start!" Sora shouted, running after her. Riku laughed, and then waited for Amy to say something. But she didn't, only because she was waiting for Riku to speak, though. The awkward silence continued, and Amy stared out at the setting Sun, just thinking how beautiful it was. But then she saw a star, shining brightly. She thought this was a bit odd considering the time, but it was shining very brightly. That distracted her thoughts of this night being so beautiful, but, for some reason, she began to think back to her old house. She felt maybe this was the place she was supposed to have been all her life, the place she was supposed to end up.
"Penny for your thoughts?" riku asked, finally.
"Aww, you don't have to pay, I'm not thinking much, just the usual stuff, you know." She didn't want to let on about what she was really thinking of.
"urmmm.. No, tell me." Riku said, turning to face Amy. He thought maybe he could get her to like him after all. And then he thought some more, he'd never actually had to get someone to like him before, they just had.
"Well," Amy started, not knowing that she was about to tell him. She turned and looked at him, too. "Have you ever felt you don't belong?"
"No, not really." Said Riku, simply
"Well that's exactly what I felt in my world. I was different, and now I know how. But I'm wondering, because with Leon and Aerith and everyone, I felt more at home, but here, I don't feel different at all. And yesterday, Kairi showed me around everywhere, and it was like I knew it all.
"Weird. So basically, you're saying you like it here." Said Riku, a little timidly. "am I right?"
"Sort of." Amy replied, trying not to sound too sappy. "Fine, then. Yes, I think it's great here. Happy now?"
"Sort of." Replied Riku, mockingly "But first you have to tell me why. Is it the island itself, the ummmm. accommodation, or." he said, getting to the objective of the whole question, "the people?"
"Hmmm.." Amy said, pretending to think, " the island.. Beautiful. The accommodation, magnifique!" she gave a french chef kiss "mmm.. But as for the people.. You're pushing your luck there, matey"
"Really?" said Riku, thinking he might as well play along.
"Yeah, I mean, I've met better people in a pig sty!" she joked.
"I'll get you for that!" replied Riku
"You'll have to catch me first" said Amy, jumping down from her tree-branch and running away.
"I'll get you!" shouted Riku, running after her. Amy jumped down onto the beach and ran into the sea. When Riku came up behind her to try and catch her, she waded farther in, and ran through at waist-height. Riku swam, and was much quicker, so when Amy got soaked by a huge wave and pulled underneath for a few seconds, he caught her. He grabbed her round the ribs by accident, not knowing that Amy was extremely ticklish there. She jumped, and screamed
"Hey! I'm ticklish!"
