Author's Note: Chapter two, yay! Mind you, the first chapter was supposed to be a one-shot drabble, but, gah, since so many people wanted more [on LJ and well, maybe not so many people...] for this, here ya go. Still dedicated to Apple-chan. Remember, concrit and flames are accepted! xD Oh, and prepare for an OOC-Sora.

'This pillow is soft...' I thought, snuggling in closer. 'It's warm, too! And it's breathing... wait, BREATHING?!' I sat up quickly but regretted it cuz the blood rushing to my head made me feel dizzy. Once that passed, I looked at where I had been sleeping and squeaked.
I was sleeping on Riku's chest!! But why? And when did he get here?
... Oh yeah...!
Riku and I had stayed up late last night, talking about stuff (well, mostly me), and watching the stars. I guess we fell asleep in the middle of that.
Man, if Kairi saw us, she'd probably freak!
I sighed. I had gotten what I wanted, but without my old friends, it felt sort of... empty. I was livin' our dream, to find other worlds, to go on adventures... but without Riku and Kairi, it was just... empty. Sure, I made new friends, and they were pretty cool, but it just wasn't the same without my old friends. Now, Riku's my enemy, and Kairi's still nowhere to be found! I felt like I was missin' a part of myself.
But, last night, I felt like the void in my heart was closing up. Riku had come to talk, and even though there was tension around us cause of this whole 'Keyblade' thing, once we put that aside, we were still friends. I told him about all the adventures I had (since last time he disappeared before I could tell him about all the cool stuff that happened) and how I missed him and Kairi. It was all fun, but, at the same time, somethin' was buggin' me as I jabbered on and on with him.
Riku was acting differently. He seemed kinda... distracted by somethin'.
When he came, we sat there in silence until I asked him if anything had changed between us. After he didn't respond I just told him to forget about it; it was probably not something he wanted to talk about. He got up and moved from our spot and then he turned around and put a hand on my shoulder and said, "If only things were different, I would have wanted to..." and trailed off, then told me to forget about it.
But I couldn't! I wanted to know what he wanted to do! I asked if he'd tell me someday, and he said "Maybe." What could he want to do that's so bad he wouldn't wanna tell me?
Hmmm... they say that body language tells more than words could say. At least, that's what mom said. I wonder if somethin' in his actions could tell me...
The way he put his hand on my shoulder... the way he lowered his head to my height... the way he moved his face closer to mine, until we were close enough to...
... GAH!!
I fell over. And I must have yelled that out loud, too, because Riku was lookin' at me funny...
... but, anyway... could Riku have wanted to KISS ME?! No. WAY!!
... maybe... looks like I got questions to ask...
I will find out, even if it's the last thing I do!

Chapters three and four should be up soon. 3 is already finished up [but it needs some tweaking] and 4 is currently being written on a piece of paper. xD Anyway, I hope you've enjoyed the past two chapters. Please review and give me suggestions on how to improve!
