:::Kairi's POV:::
I looked outside as the rain fell against the cold glass. I took a sip of the herbal tea I'd made and I winced a bit as is scalded my tongue a bit. I quickly swallowed it and it made me feel warm inside as it slowly and soothingly went down my throat. I set the porcelain China cup on the table beside me. Suddenly a bolt of lightning flashed before my eyes as I still gazed outside my window. I had not left my house since the day that incident had happened between Riku and Sora. I'd not spoken to them in nearly three weeks. I would constantly get knocks on my door , but I didn't answer it. I'd get phone calls and if I picked up the phone and one of them said hello I'd hang it up. I had been in this house doing nothing but sleeping, and eating, and showering, and replaying over and over in my mind everything that had happened. I was not going to come out. If I accepted Riku or Sora the other would go against me so the best thing was to never speak to any of them even though my heart and soul burned for Riku's kiss and touch. I touched the glass and ran my fingers over the pane as my nerves tingled from the cold sensation. Maybe I should leave and never come back... They both knew I was here. I was very aware of that. I needed to talk to someone. Anyone for that matter of fact but not over the phone I had to see them in person. Who else should I talk to but Selphie? She was really the only girlfriend I had and she would understand things a guy wouldn't. Her house was a half a mile away. I decided I would take the risk. I knew I wouldn't bump into Sora or Riku because I knew they'd never be out on a stormy night like this. I got out of my chair and walked to my closet and pulled out a large yellow slicker. I put it on over a blue sweater I was wearing and jeans. I put on my brown rain boots and headed outside. I quickly shut the door behind me. The wind blew my body back fiercely as I walked and the rain stung my eyes. So I had to depend all on sense of direction and touch. The ocean raged against the rocks below as I walked up the cliff to Selphie's house. Suddenly my knees became weak and I fell on a sharp rock and I winced in pain as I fell. Blood ran from my wound and I then knew I couldn't walk any farther because I was unable to. So I closed my eyes as I listened to the thunder rumble and I felt the rain beating hard against me. I pulled the slicker over me the best I could to shield me but it hardly done any good as I laid there for what seemed like a decade...
:::Riku's POV:::
I knew I probably shouldn't be bothering Kairi at this hour. I knew she was still angry at me but I couldn't just not talk to her. The rain beat against me as I began to near Kairi's house. I walked up those creaky old steps of hers. I knocked on the door but I got no answer. She'd done this to me before. I pushed the door open and it opened by its self. I looked around as the door shut behind me. It was unlike Kairi to leave her door unlocked like this. The lights were also on as well. I walked through the kitchen to see the cup Kairi had been drinking out of to. It still have steam rising from it which gave me a big clue she may be still here.
"Kairi I know you probably don't wanna talk to me but it's me Riku!" I yelled out but I got no answer.
This was very odd.
I pushed wet silver locks from my face as I began searching the house. Kairi wasn't here which worried me a great deal. Kairi was not one to be out on a night like this ,and for her to have left it had to have been something important. My heart began to pound as I walked hazily outside. I let the door carelessly slam behind me. I ran outside and I nearly slipped on some wet rocks but I kept on going. Something inside me told me Kairi was hurt. I walked up towards the cliffs and that's when I seen her just lying there like a helpless child lost and cold. I didn't know how long she had been lying there and I didn't care all I cared about was getting her into some dry clothes and to bed were she could rest. I noticed there was a gash in her knee. She had probably slipped on a rock. I picked her up and gently cradled her in my arms as I placed my coat over her cold frail body.
:::Kairi's POV:::
I felt two strong arms gently lift me off the cold hard ground and gently cradle me in their arms. The pair of arms that made me feel safe and secure. Riku's arms. I no longer was mad at him. I loved him unconditionally. I didn't care what Sora thought anymore. I loved Riku. Suddenly the feeling of the rain beating against my body disappeared and the only feeling I had was that the man of my dreams was holding me in his arms shielding me from the rain...
