Chapter Two
Rikku's Painful Past
"Well," Duke said as him and Rikku entered the park, "we're here. Is there any thing special you want to do?" Rikku put a finger to her lips and started to think. She wondered if Domino Park was any thing like Gala Park.
"Does this park sell ice cream anywhere," Rikku asked as she slightly smiled at Duke. Duke turned a slight red color and started to think.
"I think it does," Duke said with a bright smile, "but why do you ask?" Duke's smiled turned to a puzzled look. Rikku shook her head and smiled at him again.
"So we can buy one silly," Rikku said as she snuggled closer to Duke, "We can get to know each other over ice cream as we walk around of course." A grin snuck across Duke's face. He loved that idea. He placed his arm around Rikku's waist and started walking her forward.
"Lovely idea," Duke said suavely, "You know what you like and I like girls like that." Rikku smiled at what Duke said. She loved it that he liked her.
After getting ice cream, Duke and Rikku started walking around the park. They were taking in the sights as they held each other's hand and licked their ice cream. Duke suddenly looked from a group of blue flowers and looked at Rikku. He cleared his throat to get her attention. Rikku quickly looked at him.
"What is it Duke," Rikku asked as she brushed her purple bangs behind her ears. Duke smiled slightly and slightly tightened his grip on Rikku's hand. Rikku slightly tightened her's as well.
"Alright," Duke said with a sigh," let's start talking. I know your name is Rikku Johnson, your fifteen, you have a twin brother named Ethan, and you moved from Gala City. There's got to be more to you then meets the eye." Rikku looked a little upset. Duke's cheery outlook took a nosedive as her smile changed to a sad frown. He looked just as upset as Rikku.
"Don't get upset over me Duke," Rikku said as he frown started to turn back into a smile, "I'll be happy to tell you anything you want. Just ask me any question." Duke nodded and started to smile again. It still was bugging him that Rikku got upset though.
"Well," Duke said as he ate the last piece of his ice cream cone, "Why did your family move to Domino City? I mean, I've heard good stuff about Gala City." Rikku shook her head and looked at the ground. Duke quickly put his arm around her shoulders and pulled her closer to him.
"My mom was killed in a car accident a year ago," Rikku said with no hint of sadness in her voice, "At first it didn't affect my dad, but over time he started losing concentration. He lost so much concentration, he couldn't work properly. His boss soon fired him. After losing his job, my dad knew no one else in the city would want him. They all knew of our tragic lost and my dad's lost of concentration. My dad was going to give up, but one day he found a house for sell her in Domino City. He knew that getting out of Gala would help him concentrate. He bought the house and the three of us moved her a couple days ago. That's pretty much why we moved here. We also moved here because my dad got a job at Kaiba Corporation." Duke looked as if he was going to cry as Rikku finally looked up at him. He pulled Riku a little closer.
"I'm so sorry to hear that," Duke said as a tear actually trickled down his cheek, "I know how you feel though. I lost my mom to a bank hold up. I was only five when she was shot. It was an accident, but it was accident that those people were holding hostages. It must've been an accident that those crooks chose to hold my mom hostage." Rikku turned and hugged Duke. Duke suddenly stopped and hugged Rikku back.
"It's ok Duke," Rikku said as she looked back up at Duke, "We both suffered tragic loses, but it's in the past. Why don't we get our minds off the subject. Ask me another question." Duke let out a sigh and nodded his head. Rikku nodded back and grabbed Duke's hand. They started walking again.
"Ok," Duke said with a slight smile, "what's your favorite color?" Rikku smiled and shook her head slightly.
"Green," Riku said with cheer in her voice, "what about you?" Duke pointed to himself. Rikku nodded her head and giggled slightly.
"Red," Duke said as he raised an eyebrow, "if it isn't obvious." Rikku looked a little shocked. She then giggled again.
"That's my brother's second favorite color," Rikku giggled. Duke turned bright red. Rikku stopped giggling and looked at him.
"Is that so," Duke said as he move a piece of his pitch black hair away from his emerald green eyes, "Then what's his favorite color." Rikku shook her head. She thought that was kind of obvious.
"Black," Rikku said as she hugged Duke's arm, "I wouldn't expected anything different from him." Duke laughed a little and looked toward the lake. An idea was coming to him.
"Why don't we go on a boat ride in the lake," Duke said as he pointed at the lake, "That'll help us both forget our worries. It also can be very romantic." Rikku's blue eyes lit up. Duke knew he struck something in her heart. It was something good this time.
"That sounds wonderful," Rikku said as she started to pull Duke over to lake, "You're a real romance. I love romantic guys. They always know how to make my heart melt. Let's see if you can succeed." Duke grinned and took the lead. Both him and Rikku may have quickly regained their happiness, but nothing could erase those painful memories. Rikku was thinking about that as Duke and her ran down the hill. No matter what, she would always remember her mother. She felt really good about being around Duke even more now. Knowing he had the same lost as her, made her feel more comfortable talking about her troubles to him. She smiled again.
