Sora's P.O.V.
I knew it... she hates me. She treats me worse than Riku treats me!!! She seems so nice to Riku.... the way she always cooks for him... and how she even knows what his crap looks like. It's like she knows everything about him.... She always asks him for help.. never me. Maybe it's because she likes him.. dammit...
~ * ~
"Get up Sora... It's time to eat!!" Kairi yelled in his ear.
"AHHHHH!!! Could you be a bit quieter?! I thought you were hurt? I thought you couldn't cook?!"
"I didn't cook!! Riku did. And it's really good too! You'd better get over here and eat before we eat it all!! Oh, and you don't have to carry me around any more. Riku made these for me!! See?!" Kairi gestured to the hand-crafted crutches.
"Oh... yeah! They look great." Sora gave a weak smile. Inside his mind was screaming in cursing in anguish and annoyment.
"Are you ok?! You look sick with that grin on your face." Kairi giggled. "You look drunk."
"What would you know?! You probably don't even know what 'drunk' is!" ' If she wants to be mean to me... I guess I'll play the same game.'




Kairi raised an eyebrow.

"I know a lot of things.. stuff even about you.. that you wouldn't even know!! So if I were you.. I'd keep my mouth shut." Kairi turned her back to him. Sora walked up behind her to whisper in her ear.
"Kairi... I wish you only knew... how much you mean to me... but.. it seems as if you're pushing me away... you're play hard to get.. and you're doing a great job of it." Sora walked around her and headed to the wafting smells of Riku's cooked food. Kairi just stood there, speechless. 'I can't believe he said that... how did he know?'




Kairi walked over to the wooden crates next to Sora's house. "Since I already

ate... I guess I'll visit my parents again." She began to climb the wooden crates heading to Sora's roof. She lifted herself onto one of her crutches and used her good leg to climb onto the roof. She sat with her injured leg outstretched. "Hi mom... hi dad." Kairi said looking towards the sky. She continued to speak towards the sky.
"I'm fine here. Riku is a lunatic and Sora is a really sweet guy... I really love him... but I think he hates me. Don't worry dad.... he's a really sweet guy! Honestly, I promise!!
"I really miss you guys. Mom I hope you're taking care of dad... make sure he's ok.. Don't worry about me. I'm going to be fine. Sora and Riku are watching over me. I can take care of myself mom... really... don't worry..."




Tears filled Kairi's eyes and rolled down her cheeks. "I'm sorry I never met

you. Those people you gave me to... I didn't like them. They hurt me... I couldn't get away. They abused me... every day.... I couldn't take it. They never fed me.. so I learned how to cook by myself. I knew they weren't my parents... I told them that and they got mad at me. And when I was 7 they threw me in the ocean... and I ended up here.. on this Island. Sora found me... and he took care of me. And in return I'm taking care of him and Riku. I cook for them and clean after them.... just like how you and dad would care for me..."
Kairi lost her voice. More tears continued to fall down her face. She swallowed the lump in her throat and continued. "E- e - even though I have never even seen your faces... it seems as if I've known how you've looked all my life. I know you loved me... you were just doing what was best for me.... I understand.. and I don't want you to worry about me now... I've grown up. I hope to see you again... someday. I love you." Kairi heard Sora's voice calling her and the rumble of his feet climbing the crates.
"Kairi... There you are. I was looking for you." Sora smiled... but faltered at the sight of her tear stained face. "What's wrong Kairi?! Did Riku hurt your feelings?!! If he did.. I'm going to-"
"No.. Riku didn't hurt me.. It's just that..." She hesitated. "I just... miss my parents." Sora nodded.
"Oh... I see. You know.. I never met my parents either." Kairi looked at him, startled. "Yea... I over heard my 'pretend' parents talking about it. I heard them debating about if they should tell me about my past or not. See... I was found in a park when I was 2 days old. My 'fake' parents figured my real parents were just teenagers and they didn't know what to do with me... so they just hid me in a park. When I over heard this.. I ran away from them... I wanted to get away from the life I never had. So I built a boat and sailed away. I landed here.. on Destiny Islands. Riku cared for me. He's kinda like my father... but don't tell him I told you that." Sora grinned and forced back tears. He didn't want to show Kairi his 'soft' side. The worst thing that could happen to a guy is they start to go weak when the person who is expecting them to be strong is right there needing their support. He didn't want Kairi to think that of him. He wanted her to know that he was strong enough to take care of himself...and maybe her, too.
"Sora.." Kairi said quietly. "I'm sorry that happened to you... I just wish I could help." She looked away from him, biting her lip in sadness.
"But you already have." Sora's hand tilted Kairi's face to look into his. "I have you.... that's enough help you can ever give me." Kairi leaned over and gave him a hug. "Kairi... can I give you something?" Sora whispered in Kairi's ear. "I've been wanting to give you this... almost forever. Kairi pulled out of the hug and nodded. Sora held Kairi's face in his hands and pulled it closer to his. Their lips met in a long passionate kiss. Kairi was shocked yet pleased. She had been wanting this to happen forever since she realized she had feelings for him. Which had been a long time ago.




Kairi's hands wrapped around Sora's neck and ran her fingers through the

hair on the back of his head. Her hands pulled him in closer to her.
"Sora... we should stop." Kairi said suddenly through their kiss. "Riku might see us."
"Riku is too busy inhaling food... don't worry." Sora whispered. His hands trailed down her face and through her hair. Kairi let out a soft moan. "Kairi.... I lov-"
"HEY!! SORA!!! STOP GETTING HORNEY AND GET DOWN HERE AND WASH THE DISHES!!!" Riku yelled from the kitchen.
"Dammit.... Sorry, Kairi... I kinda got.. carried away..." Sora blushed furiously and head down the roof.
"Wait, Sora." Kairi said pulling back at his shirt. "Can I ask you something?" Sora gave her a puzzled look.
"Sure."
"Can... can I meet you back here later.. at night? I want to talk to my parents again... and I don't like it up here by myself." Kairi confessed looking away. Sora smiled and lifted Kairi in his arms.
"Yeah, sure." He carried her down the crates and settled her down. "Well.. I have to go wash the dishes... or else Riku's gonna bite my head off." Sora ran off to the kitchen. Kairi stared after him. Her fingers touched her lips, still surprised at Sora's lust. She blushed at her thoughts and started to limp towards the kitchen.




~*~

"Riku is too busy inhaling food...don't worry," Riku said in a mocking girlish tone as Sora scrubbed at the dishes. Sora frowned deeply and muttered a small 'shut up' as he placed the cleaned plate on the table. Riku just let out a taunting laugh and picked up the plate Sora had just washed, wiping it dry with a towel. "I'm not stupid, Sora. I know what you two were doing."
"I know that Riku. I know ok!" Sora snapped angrily at Riku. "You don't always have to correct me all the time! I'm not a baby!" Sora slammed the next plate down a little harder than needed.
"I know that too Sora," Riku said in a monotone voice as if Sora hadn't even spoken. "You know I'm just teasing you. Besides, I've always got your back if you need help." He picked up the dry stack of plates and walked over to the shelves. Sora didn't talk for awhile, just listened to the sounds of the clinking and rearranging as Riku put back the eating condiments.

"Do you...do you think that...that s-" Riku interrupted him.
"Just spit it out."
"I was going to until you stopped me," Sora grated. He took a breath and continued. "Do you think, that she likes me?"
"Who?" Riku said obliviously. Sora felt like throttling him. Not that he could even if he want too, though.

The older boy chuckled when he heard a frustrated groan in the background and then the brunette's aggravated voice. "You know who." Riku smirked. The poor boy sounded like he was going to blow a gasket as Riku prolonged his answer, taking extra time just to set back the plates and bowls just to promote Sora's anger.
"Are you that blind?" Riku finally said. He could practically hear the younger boy inflate even more, like a balloon about to pop from too much air.
"Well I must be," Sora ground out. He had finished the rest of the dishes, and was waiting for Riku to dry them. When the silver-haired boy made no move to do so, Sora moaned in frustration and picked up the cloth, beginning to dry them himself.
"She has feelings for you, dildo. You are just too caught up to notice. You're too busy trying not to trip over yourself in front of her, but if you would just open your eyes, you would see she's trying just as hard to impress you as you are her."

Sora mulled over the older teen's words, almost dropping a bowl in the process. What was Riku talking about? Was it the truth? If what he was saying was right, he would never real know unless he asked her. But then she would never say yes. It was just too obvious. And although she was sweet and all, she was also a catch. A very hard catch.
"Done thinking yet?" Riku's voice came from behind him. Sora jumped when Riku punched him lightly in the shoulder. It had taken him by surprise, and he had to hold his breath so he wouldn't do something stupid, like scream. Riku snorted bemusedly, and started talking again. "You've gotten rusty. How 'bout a race around the island?" Sora scrunched up his nose.
"What's the catch this time," Sora sighed. Riku just shook his head.
"No catch. We won't bet on anything this time."
"This time," Sora grumbled, remembering all the times he had lost to Riku's stupid deals.
"I'm serious. So how bout it?" Riku was pulling on his black gloves that he had taken out of his back pants' pocket.
"Ok."

~*~

"Ok, the same as always," Kairi said, using her hands as a mini microphone. "Take any route you want, but you have to go completely around the island or you loose. The one who gets back here first without cheating wins!" Both teen's nodded, knowing they had done this millions of times before. When they were younger, it was only racing around in the cove, and that was usually just to impress Kairi. Now it was the whole island, and it was more of a workout session than to impress anyone.

"ON YOU MARK!" Both boys leaned down and positioned their feet for a good kickoff. "GET SET!!" Placing their arms up, like they were ready to punch someone, they turned their heads and smirked at each other. "GOOOOO!!!"

And they were off. Sand flew everywhere as they heard the sound of Kairi cheering, her voice getting fainter as they ran on. Riku's lean body eventually pulled ahead, and Sora had to force himself to keep up. He should have known. Riku had been doing this everyday, but recently, Sora had been slacking off. Now it showed. But he was determined to beat him, just for the sake of his pride.
"I told you you were getting rusty," Riku said to the panting Sora. It had been about ten minutes since they had kicked off, and they had each ran about a mile. The island itself was only about four or five miles wide, so it took almost an hour to complete it.
"I..am...not..rusty," Sora gasped out. He set his eyebrows in a determined line, and sped ahead of Riku. The silver haired boy just laughed.
"You're lucky you don't have a uni-brow, Sora. Because then you'd really look like you have a caterpillar growing out of your forehead."
"OH FOR CRYING OUT LOUD RIKU, SHUTTUP!!' Sora yelled, annoyed at having his concentration broken. But he had to laugh too. Riku's insults were aggravating at the most, but they were also funny too. Besides, getting angry is just what Riku wanted, and he refused to let himself be caught by such a trick.
"You are gonna lose this one, Riku you testicle."

~*~

Kairi sat on the pier, watching Selphie swing around her jump rope. She had told the younger girl once to get a longer dress so her panties wouldn't be visible, but she had just screamed like a loon and walked away, as if she was happy that the whole world could see her tighty whities. If that wasn't weird enough, the wild girl was fifteen years old. What kind of fifteen-year-old girl plays with a jump rope and runs around with a orange dress that you could literally see right up if you stood under her? Kairi shook her head. 'They shouldn't have called this place Destiny Islands,' she thought. 'They should have called it Loon Island. Or maybe The-Island-Where-All-Those-People-In-The-Mental-Hospital-Come-From.'

But she had always wondered why they called it Destiny Islands. She had also wondered why people didn't flock to this place. It was called Destiny Islands, so wouldn't a bunch of tourists be coming to try and figure out their destiny?

Kairi looked around, trying to figure out how long it had been since the two boys had left. She estimated about forty minutes. Sighing deeply, she ran her hands through her auburn-red hair and thought back to what Sora had said to her up on the roof. She wasn't really sure, but it sounded at the end like he was trying to express his feelings to her.
"I love you, or something like that," Kairi murmured. She then slapped her head like it was the silliest idea in the world. "That can't be it," she said. She then smiled. "Sora is too crazy for that..but.." she downcast her eyes. "He was acting pretty salacious back there...maybe he does have feelings for me...more than a friend.." Kairi smiled silently in her mind. Whether he had or he hadn't, it was nice just to hear that someone was trying to tell about their feelings in that way to her. "Oh Sora...if only you knew how I felt too..."

"Whatcha thinking about?" Selphie asked, brushing her brown, shoulder length hair to one side. She had unnoticeably walked over to Kairi, and had taken a seat next to her, dangling her feet over the dock just like the older girl. Kairi just gave the younger girl a thumbs up.
"Nothing, Selphie, nothing."

Both girls turned their heads when they heard pounding against the beach's surface. Moments later Riku and Sora came ripping up the beach, both sweaty and panting. Amazingly, both crossed the line where they had started, and then collapsed in one huge heap.

Selphie ran over to the boys, with Kairi limping behind. Riku was laughing like the world was about to end and Sora was glaring death daggers at the older boy. But after listening to Riku's deafening bales of laughter, Sora finally gave in and started laughing too. Kairi's eyes widened when she saw the gash that traveled up both boys left legs.
"SORA!! RIKU!!" Kairi yelled, bending down and grabbing their legs. She fliched slightly as her injured legs went down. Their laughter died down, and when Kairi looked up at them, they both put on sheepish faces.
"We tried climbing up this rock and slit our legs," Riku supplied. Kairi's eyes grew wide, and they could tell she was pretty pissed with them.
"This is more than a slit," Kairi snapped. She examined both boys legs. "You guys can still walk right?" They both nodded arrogantly. "Then get in the house."

Selphie watched the three of them go, wondering how they could ever stand each other.

~*~

"Ow...ow....OWWWW!!!" Sora yelled as he tried to scramble away from Kairi and her antiseptic that she was rubbing on his cut. She just glared at him and jumped after him, landing on his back.
"You aren't going anywhere," she said as she twisted herself backwards so she could continue cleaning his wound. "Not until I'm finished. Then you can go back outside with Riku and you guys can beat each other up as much as you want." Sora frowned and started to drum his fingers against the floor, lolling his head around.
"Done yet," Sora asked.
"I just started, Sora. Calm down before I have to use the sleeping gas on you."
"We have sleeping gas!?"
"I was kidding. Stop moving so I can finish faster!" Sora listened to Kairi worked, and then glanced at her legs.
"Doesn't that hurt?" he asked quietly. Kairi followed his gaze.
"Yes, but you are hurt too so I can worry about myself later. Besides, I'm done." She gave a satisfied clap and crawled off of Sora, who jumped up and helped her to stand with her crutches.
"Thanks," she whispered. Sora smiled. Riku cleared his throat from behind them in obvious discomfort. Sora rolled his eyes, picked up an apple from the counter, and threw it at the older boys head. He caught it and took a bite out of it.
"So now we're all bandaged up," Riku said. "We look like a bunch of drunks."
"I'm a drunk princess, Riku's a drunk banana, and Sora is a drunk dick," Kairi said happily. Sora puffed himself up and Riku started laughing again.
"Hey, why am I a drunk dick?!" he demanded.
"Because only special drunks are dicks," Kairi laughed, pretending to be all tipsy.
"What should we do now?" Riku asked. Both of the younger teens shrugged. Riku tilted his head to the side and thought. A small smirk started to grow into a grin on Riku's face. Kairi and Sora looked at him cautiously, wondering what he might be grinning about. "Let's play truth of dare." Sora's eyes widened.

"Aw hell naw! I'm not playing that game with you again!! Remember last time! I almost died trying to do one of your stupid dares!! No! I'm not playing!!"

"Aww common' Sora! Don't be such a baby. Let's just play for the hell of it! You go first Riku."

"Ok... Sora. Truth or Dare?" Sora already knew that if he picked truth, Riku would ask him, 'Do you love Kairi?' So he decided to pick-

"Dare." Riku's smile grew wider.

"Ok. I dare you to jump off that cliff, naked. And if you refuse... you're going to have to sleep with Kairi tonight." Sora looked as if he was sentenced to swim in a piranha infested river. He took a minute to think about it.

"Fine. But no tricks this time, ok?!" Sora made his way toward the large cliff that Riku gestured at. Sora started to expose his chest, revealing prominent arm and chest muscles which were produced over a long period of time of lifting wood and racing Riku around the Island. Kairi was a bit taken aback by Sora's exception of Riku's dare. Jumping off a 25 foot cliff into the ocean sounded a bit dangerous.. especially if you were naked. With her best efforts, Kairi limped after Sora, to make sure he didn't kill himself. Reluctantly, Riku followed.

At the bottom of the cliff, Riku explained what Sora had to do.

"Ok, climb up and take off your clothes. When you're ready, jump and swim back to shore. Simple as that. Kairi and I will be waiting for you right here. And if anything goes wrong... well... too bad!"

"Yeah... thanks for your support." Sora muttered, glaring darkly at Riku.

"Good luck Sora! Please return safely!! I'll be here waiting for you!" She flashed her beautiful smile. Sora smiled back.

"Would you hurry up, Sora?! The faster you jump off, the quicker you'd get back to put your clothes on!!!" Sora nodded and stated to climb. 'Oh man oh man oh man,' Sora thought miserably. 'I'm probably gonna get a big X-shaped scar on my p-'

"Hurry up Sora! Don't wanna have those seagulls start pecking at you, seeing as you look like deranged coconut and all," Riku yelled inappropriately up at the poor brunette. Sora gritted his teeth and yanked himself over the edge of the cliff, resisting the tempting urge to pick up one of the boulders and hurl it at the older boy's unsuspecting head. But enough of that. He could plan Riku's demise later.

He shimmied over to the edge where the water was deepest, giving Riku and Kairi an absolutely perfect view of Sora's ass. Shifting incomprehensively on the edge, Sora gazed over into the glistening water. It didn't look too bad. And there were no rocks or anything sharp that he could see so...

Squeezing his eyes shut, he jumped into the water. The water was icy cold, being at night. 'God it's freezing,' Sora thought. His teeth chattered loudly, and his stomach was burning, despite the temperature of the water. He had landed wrong, and tried to console himself that he purposely did a belly flop.

Oh great. Something was nibbling his toe. Kicking around, he quickly knocked away the evil parrot fish that had chosen to snack on his foot. (A/N: I have nothing against fish, people!! Fish are actually one of my favorite animals!!)

Sora realized that he had not come up the whole time and was just bobbing under the surface. Deciding to stay under the water to save himself from the even colder wind, he swam to the right of him, not knowing that it was the wrong way.

"Riku!! Where is he!! RIKU!!!"

"I DON'T KNOW OK!! I_DON'T_KNOW!!" Riku yelled back just as loudly as Kairi had. "Come on Sora," he muttered, more to himself than to anyone else. "Get back here."

"Where is he Riku!!" The silver haired boy gritted his teeth and tried to ignore her voice. It was making him horridly nervous to know that their friend might be hurt..again. Not only that, another one of his weaker friends was in a wreck of fear and there was nothing he could do to console her.

A/N: Hello children! Well ok I shouldn't be saying that because I'm not that old myself. But whatever. By the way, this is Kurai Kanashimi, not Kurai Muso-Ka. But don't worry!! We're going to have another beautifully boring conversation again for your avid enjoyment!

K.M- Kanashimi, that's my job.

Kanashimi- Gomen, but you were busy and I wanted to help!! ^.^*

Chana- Konnichiwa.

K.M.-This is my other friend. Except she is serious and quiet. Not insane like Satsuka.

Kanashimi- I want to address a issue.

K.M.- Issue away.

Kanashimi-In the reviews, there are two names: Kayoko and Kurai Kanashimi, which is obviously me. But the other one, Kayoko is Satsuka. Yes, it is obvious because of the insane rantings that she does. I just wanted to tell all of you that because K.M. might get freaked out if she starts getting reviews as crazy as ours, especially when it's not from us.

K.M.- Thank you for stating that. Please stay tuned for my next chapter: I don't know. Really, I don't. But don't worry, I will figure out a name for it soon.

Chana- Riiight.

Kanashimi- Sayonara.. for now!! ^.^
