Chapter II: Face me now!
"Sora! What the hell are you doing?!"
"I...I..Riku..."
"Have you lost your mind?!"
"You mean you never felt that way, Riku?"
"..About Kairi. Never about you..."
Groaning, Sora rolled over from the sunlight beaming at his face. The event kept replaying in his mind. It had him up all night. Glancing over to his clock, he sighed. It was 12:36 P.M. and he was sure the others were out working on the raft, wondering why he hadn't shown his cheery face.
***************************************
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he stud back to admire his work. Feeling somewhat satisfied, he went over and got some more lumber. Work seemed to be the only thing that kept Riku from thinking about Sora. He knew better than to think he'll come and help out with the raft. Not after what happened yesterday. But someone had to do it, and Kairi was still missing from action. "Wow, look at mister work hard." spinning around, he saw Kairi standing behind him with a bottle of water. "Kairi, I was just thinking about you." he smirked. She smiled "About my beauty?" walking towards her he laughed. "Well more on where you were, but yours sound better." She tossed the bottle water at him. "Hey, I'mma need a day off from the raft." Drinking the water down fast, he burped. "What for?" he said breathlessly. "I promised Selphie I'd help her with her room. You know, redecoration." "Great." he tossed the bottle on the sand. "Hey, it's not like you're all alone, you still have Sora!" he looked away quickly. "Yeah. How could I have forgotten?" he knew good and well he'd be the only one working on it today. "you'll be fine! Ok, gotta go! Tell Sora I said see him later!" she ran off. He continued working for another half hour when he couldn't take it anymore. 'I gotta go apologize to Sora.' He dropped the tools and rushed over to Sora's house.
Sora laid there, staring up at his ceiling. 'Nope, not moving. Can't face Riku now...' His stomach gurgled loudly. 'I'll get something to eat again after mom leaves for work again.' The sun shined beautifully through his window down onto his bed and floor. It was a great day, the birds sang in the distance. He laid there until he heard his mother get ready to leave for her job again, hearing the usual sounds she made before leaving. The sound of the fridge closing, her hills clacking against the floors, and the jingle of her keys. But a new noise wiggled it's way into the routine. A knock at the door was it? He froze and listened hard. The voice, it sounded masculine and familiar, then he heard his mom tell the voice he was upstairs in his room. Then she left. He held his breath as he heard foots steps closing in towards his room. Quickly he faced the opposite direction of the door, pulled the covers over his head and squeezed his eyes closed. He knew who it was, and he wanted to turn invisible because of it.
Riku quietly entered the closed room. Only to see a still lump lying under some covers. 'He can't still be asleep this time of day.' Walking over to the edge of the bed he stood there, not sure what to say. Sora lay there frightened. Wishing he would leave and never return. "Sora." he called, no response. "ssooorrraaa." still, no response. He placed a hand on his shoulder, feeling him tremble under his touch. Gently he shook him. "I know you can hear me. It'll help if you answered." after a few minutes of silence Sora finally responded. "Go away Riku." his presence was enough to make his heart drop. "Sora, we should talk." he sat at the edge of the bed. "What for? It's obvious you hate me now." Riku watched him carefully. "I don't hate you. Why would I hate you?" Sora sat up a bit, revealing slightly red eyes and messy hair. Of course Riku was well groomed as usual. Flowing silver hair, bright lively aqua eyes. Coated with sorrow. "You hungry? I could get you some grub." he tried his best to avoid the situation. Sora shook his head no slowly. Another long awkward pause. The soft roaring of the sea cut the silence every now and again. Sora sat up completely and rested his head against the head board. 'I wish he would say something...'
"Sora. I was scared."
"Scared? When do you get scared?" Sora answered puzzled. He never would've imagine him scared of anything. Riku stared at the floor, unable to look him in the eyes. He wanted to tell him he DID have those feelings. A voice shouted in his head to tell him. 'Tell him! Tell him how you feel!' "I-..." he closed his eyes, finding this whole thing unbelievable. "I'm sorry for the things I said, Sora. It was insensitive. But it can't be a you and me. It's not right." he got up slowly and made his way to the door. 'I am a coward. Sora was right.' Figuring that's what he came to say, Sora remained silent. He grabbed the door knob and looked back at him. 'What am I so afraid of?' He half hoped Sora would stop him. Making him spill his real feelings, because there's no way he could do it on his own. "Riku, did you really come all that way to tell me that? To tell me what's right and wrong?" He turned back around and faced the door, dropping his head a little. "Yes. And it's not right.." "Who are we to judge what's right and wrong? How do you know it's not right, Riku?" Balling his fist, Riku whirled around. "Because it's just not, Sora!" Analyzing his face, he could tell something else was the real issue. He decided to push on, hoping he wouldn't end up with a black eye. "I believe that's it Riku..." He narrowed his eyes at Sora. "What's it?" He smiled. "Deep down inside, the fear of being 'wrong' is holding you back. Not because you don't have feelings for me, because you're scared to show them." He gasped silently. 'How'd he-?!' Sora was actually right! And all that time he thought he was dense to anything deep. "You're in denial." he lied to the triumphant key bearer. "Actually, I think you're the one in denial." Riku stared at him with the look of defeat. He didn't know what else to say. Sora knew this, he had won. He leaned against the door and slid down to the floor. He might as well tell him, since he figured it out mostly himself. Closing his eyes he began again. "I was scared, Sora. Scared to show you my feelings." Sora got out of bed and sat next to him on the floor. "My pride..." he paused to hold back a tear. "...I'm such a coward." Sora hugged him, he knew how it felt for he went through the same thing.
"We don't have to tell anyone, it'll be our secret."
************************************************
He leaned his head against Riku. It felt so right, this moment, no way it could be wrong. The room slowly darkened to a dim gray, accompanied with a rolling thunder. "Oh...no. The raft." they got up. Sora searched for his shoes while Riku peaked out the window at the falling rain. Once Sora was ready, they raced outside to the raft. It was a downpour. "Sora! Give me the rope!" he yelled over the falling rain and loud thunder. "Where is it?!" He looked for it franticly. "It' must've been washed around the shore line!" he said while trying his best not to let the raft get washed out to sea. Sora ran along the shore line, until he found it. "Gotcha." He turned around to wave it in victory. "Good! Now-" he froze mid sentence. "What it is?!" he backed up a little. A tsunami of a wave was heading right towards them. "Sora!! Get out of there!!" It was closing in fast. "Sora!!! Move!! Behind you!" he turned around in time to see the huge wall of water hover towards him. All went silent. He slowly walked backwards from it. "no escape." Riku rushed over to him, hoping to tackle him out of the way of most of the wave, but his timing and the wave was synchronized. The impact was fatal, flinging them backwards with tremendous force. After slamming them into trees and rock, it dragged them out to sea. Returning to the surface, Riku's eye sight slowly came back in. He tried swimming against the current, but he was having trouble moving his right arm. "It's...broken...where's Sora? SORA!!" he hysterically looked around for him in the waters. Suddenly, something hard bumped into his back, spinning around he saw the raft and Sora clinging onto it, unconscious. "Sora!" he grabbed hold of him, then sunk underwater. He kick swam down to the bottom where the waters were calm and made his way to the shore line. To the best of his abilities, he dragged Sora to the secret passage for some refuge from the storm.
