Chapter Five
"I'll go and slay a dragonfly!" Ugly, Honk!
Sora was completly caught off gaurd as Kairi kissed him, so he just sat there as she slowly pulled away looking him in the eyes. They just sat there looking at each other.
Kairi was disappointed, maybe she was wrong, she probably just made a fool out of herself in front of someone she thought more of a friend. Meanwhile he probably just thought of her as a friend, a best friend.
The two sat there in silence each looking away, as Kairi played a little with her hair. She then let go of Sora's hand and stood, heading towards the door, not looking at the spike-haired boy. She didn't want him to see the tears coming out of her eyes, she wasn't sure she could see him again.
He watched her stand up and slowly walk towards the door as he closed his eyes. What was wrong with him, the girl he loved was walking away from him, perhaps forever. Though could he stand being away from her, hurting her. He was confused, but then an old memory surfaced.
It was when he was turned into a Heartless, and Kairi risked herself to save him from the darkness bringing him back to the light. He reopened his eyes no longer confused, and saw Kairi near the door and quickly stood up.
Moving along he took her hand causing the girl to turn around, as Sora tried not to flinch at seeing her tears. He then moved her close to him and lifting up her chin with his free hand. Looking into her eyes, he bent his head down and kissed her with a passion he had kept hidden for two years, crushing her into him.
Kairi was now the one to be suprised, but not for long. She reached a arm and wrapped it around Sora's neck, as she responded back to his kiss by trying to make it deeper, as her fingers went up to his hair touching it.
Sora responded by making the kiss as deep as he could go, but his breath was running out so he slowly broke it. He then just held Kairi close to him, as she listened to his heartbeat, with her head resting on his chest.
The silence that followed wasn't painful as earlier, just the comfort of two best friends who now in love with each other. The keyblade master slowly stroked Kairi's hair, as the two stood there. It felt very soft to the touch, as he tilted his head, kissed her forehead. There was so much to tell her, but he didn't know where to begin.
She was also at a loss of what to say, at the moment she felt safe and happy being held by Sora.A thought passed through her head, soon he would be leaving her again. She would be going back to the island, left to worry about him. Kairi then hugged Sora tighter nuzzling her head into his shirt, and he seemed to notice it, as he lifted her chin again.
"What's wrong Kai..."
Kairi kissed him again, a gentle one as she tried to shove the thought aside of him going off and leaving her stranded. She wanted the moment to last, as long as she could make it.
Once again Sora broke the kiss, reluctantly, but he was concerned for Kairi. He then looked her in the eyes. "Kairi what is it?" He muttered.
She looked into those saphire eyes for a while and bit her lip before snuggling against him. "I don't want to leave your side Sora. How much longer must I wait this time for the end of this?" She asked.
"It's dangerous Kai, I wouldn't know what to do if something happened.." He began.
"What difference does it make? Danger or no danger at least I'd be by your side, instead of far away sick with worry." She sighed. "Back on the island I felt so lost, confused, and depressed." She then became determined deep inside, and she guessed her love for Sora made her that way. "No, I'm not waiting this time, I'm coming with you Sora." She said looking up into his eyes. "This time I fight! I don't care what you say, I'm going!"
Sora was suprised at her reaction and gave her a true smile, one that rarely showed itself anymore. "All right then Kairi." He mummered kissing her softly and then pulling away. "This time you will fight." He then walked her out of the door, and down to Selphie's room.
Sora hugged Kairi tight kissing her with an unwaiting passion; then releashing her, Kairi looked one more time, then stepped through the door to the other room, as he made his way down the hall. He felt strangely happy and now complete.
A few whistles came from a door before he reached his room, stopping he looked over to where the nephews and Max were watching through the door. Sora couldn't help the blush that came to his cheeks as the group snickered. "Ever hear of privacy." He muttered.
"With action like that, are you kidding." Louie muttered, as Sora's cheeks grew redder.
"Well Max, Uncle Donald owes your dad a favor now." Huey said ignoring Sora for a moment.
"What would that be for?" Both Sora and Max asked at the same time.
Huey threw a smirk towards Sora before turning back to Max. "Uncle Donald bet your dad that Sora and Kairi would never get together. Though your dad the romantic suprising enough always believed they would."
"Who would have thought of it? Unbelievable." Max muttered.
"Hey that's my love life your uncle and dad were betting about!" Sora cried out his face turned an even brighter shade of red.
"Hey Sora, you might want to check the mirror, it appears someone has painted your face red!" Duey said snickering.
Sora then mumbled something about paybacks as he entered the room and shut the door. The nephews and Max burst out laughing, and closed the door. As the others went to bed the young goof sat up and sighed some. "The keyblade master is in love. I wish I was that lucky." He muttered closing his eyes thinking of a girl back at home.
The keyblade master shut the door hearing his friends snickering at his behavior. He then moved over to the bed and stripped down to his boxers, laying his clothes on the table. He then crawled under his covers, but didn't close his eyes yet.
Apparently Goofy knew more then he talked about, that goof, his friend had known all along he would fall for Kairi and be with her as long as he could. It completly suprised him, though looking back now he couldn't help, but agree. All the memory's, the brief flashes, his feelings when competing with Riku.
He sighed and rolled over on his side, pulling the covers up around his chin. Several things had to be done tomarrow, they had to get supplies for starters. The next was telling the others Kairi would be coming with them. That was what worried him, she couldn't defend herself against the Heartless or Souless.
Clenching a hand, Sora promised himself that Kairi would be trained to defend herself. Closing his eyes he fell into a troubled sleep....
*************
He moved through the rubble of the destroyed castle. Carefully he looked around for survivors of the blast, it had caught them all by suprise. Fires were still around the area, as he walked kicking loose pebbles by.
They had planned on attacking the next morning, but not to have it backfire on them. He had no idea how many Souless and Heartless were running about, but he had to be careful.
Suddenly hearing a noise he turned and pulled out his sword in defense. "Who's there, show yourself!" He called out through the smoke.
A figure appeared through the smoke, clothes torn, and auburn hair in a mess. He quickly moved towards her holding her close with his sword-free hand, as she held him tight. "I thought you were dead, where the explosion was centered." He mumbled through her hair.
"I'm fine, I went out for a walk, as it hit, I was far enough from the explosion." She whispered, shivering though there was a constant heat around them from the burning fires.
He looked down to see she was just wearing night clothes, but at the same time the shivering was fear, of not bumping into him, but the darkness. She had nothing to protect herself and would have been taken easily. He gave a sigh of relief into her hair, how long will their luck last.
Instead of shivering she was trembling now, holding on tighter, tears almost threatening to come. "What about the others, what if....?"
He quickly silenced her by pressing his mouth against hers, trying to calm her down, as well as ease himself as he had started trembling. What if they were the only ones left? The only two standing between the darkness and it's ultimate goal?
The kiss deepened as they held on to each other tightly, wishing it could never stop, as their hearts were pounding in an even beat as their trembling began to subside. Together was what mattered, as things fell away.
"Giving your loved one a kiss goodbye? How romantic, too bad the other one didn't have anyone to say goodbye to." A cold voice called out.
He quickly broke the kiss pushing the girl behind him and glaring down the red head enemy. "What did you do to him!"
"If you beat me, maybe you might find out. He and the others were pushovers, your the real prize, as soon as your heart stops beating the world will be overcome with darkness." The man hissed out smiling.
"My heart will never stop beating, the light will forever shine and never go out." He muttered bringing his sword forward.
The man smirked as he summoned his weapons from both sides. "So we will start out like the simple way? Fine with me, the quickly I beat you the better."
"Be careful." She whispered, her love going out to him.
He nodded holding the sword steady. "I always am, and I love you." He mummered, as both figures charged at each other full force....
************
Lips met on lips as Sora opened his eyes to see Kairi kissing him, as he sat up trying not to break it, but she did anyway. "Common lazy bum, the others are already up." She teased moving over to stand by his bed.
"Man what a wake-up call." He muttered, looking over at Kairi.
"Well what else was I supposed to do, you wouldn't move from your bed no matter how hard I tried." She said putting her hands on her hips. "Besides I thought it was a better idea then bringing in the nephews to cast spells at you."
"Your right there, though I think you might have enjoyed watching me run around as spells were shouted out." He commented lightly, pulling on his shirt from nearby.
"Got a point there, it would be very entertaining, maybe I should go tell them to wake you up tomarrow." She said slyly, and turned to walk away.
"I don't think so!" Sora called out, taking a hold of Kairi's hand pulled her onto his lap, though he was just part way out of bed. He looked at his girlfriend's outfit to see she was wearing a pair of blue jeans, and a white tank-top, and white sneakers.
Holding her there he took his chance, and moved a hand to her rib cage and began tickling her. She burst out laughing just as Sora predicted and began tickling her more.
"Your just....trying to....distract me....from getting...you out...of...bed" Kairi stifled between laughs as Sora kept tickling her and holding her in place from running off.
"Yep." He muttered smiling.
Kairi thought about what she could to have the advantage, as she kept giggling and saw her chance. She then kissed him hard, distracting the boy long enough to slip out of his grasp, breaking the kiss as she backed away.
"Now that was unfair." Sora whined, from the bed.
"And tickling me wasn't?" Kairi said tossing Sora the rest of his clothes her sides now sore, from laughing. "Get dressed and I'll meet you outside of your door."
He watched her leave, and then pulled himself out of bed. The dream he had earlier mystified him, but it didn't seem the most important at the moment. He then pulled on his pants, and overshirt. Then he tied his sneakers, and put on his silver crown pendent.
Sora looked in the mirror quickly his messy, spikey brown hair, his main attention. He had given up trying to brush it down, as he walked out the door. Kairi was there waiting for him, she took his hand as their fingers intertwined.
The two then made their way to the lobby of the hotel. Kairi squeezed Sora's hand gently. "The nephews and Max have already left for supplies, so we are going to greet the others goodbye, then we are going to try to find me a weapon." She said.
Sora's eyebrows raised. "You already told the others you were coming?"
"No, they seemed to know, and told me that once the others were gone, you would help me find a sword."
"Right." He muttered as they entered the lobby where Tidus, Selphie, and Wakka were waiting.
The group made their way out of the hotel and into the bustle of Twilight Town. The docks were not too far off, but there wasn't much talk.
Tidus looked over at Sora and Kairi to see the two holding hands, as they walked. He looked over at Selphie who was having trouble with her bags, to Wakka who was spacing off. Was he the only one to notice the couple in front of him. A stronger pang of envy passed through him, this time even deeper than before.
How he wished he could be the one holding Kairi's hand and not Sora. It didn't matter though she was coming home with them, and Sora wasn't. Maybe then he would have another chance.
They all reached the docks in a short time as Selphie loaded all her bags into the boat, before turning and hugging Sora. "Come back to the island sometime, okay? She asked. "You do after all owe us a story on what you have been doing."
The teen nodded as he said his goodbyes to Wakka, as Tidus turned to Kairi. "Well, you better say your goodbyes to Sora, the boat will leave soon." He muttered.
Kairi gave a sad smile to Tidus, before hugging him. "I'm sorry Tidus, but I'm staying here and going with Sora. I love him and need to stay by his side." She then pulled away from her hug and moved over to Sora's side.
Tidus followed slightly and held out his hand to Sora. "See you around sometime, maybe after this is over you can come home, I'll be waiting to duel you." He said forming a smile.
Sora shook Tidus's hand firmly. "Don't worry I'm up for a duel anytime, and you better be ready when I come back."
The blonde boy boarded the ship as it moved out, as Sora and Kairi waved goodbye to their friends never knowing if they would see them again. Taking her hand Sora turned and the two headed back to the main part of town.
"A sword huh?" Sora questioned as he looked down at Kairi.
"Would you rather have me wield magic?" She asked snuggling close to him.
"Good point, a sword would be better."
Letting go of Kairi's hand he put his arm around her shoulders, as her arm went around Sora's waist as the two began looking for an armory.
