Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts.
This is my second fic, please review and tell me what you think!
This story takes place 2 years after the original Kingdom Hearts. Again, with no regard for what I consider to be Kingdom Hearts 2 or 3. I hope you enjoy it!

Sora laughed as Kairi chased him down the beach with a stick. He wasn't quite sure how he had gotten himself in such a predicament, but Kairi did look adorable when she was angry. Riku stood wading in the ocean, watching them with serious, disapproving eyes. Sometimes he really had to wonder about those two…But even he laughed when Sora tripped over Tidus and tumbled headfirst into the ocean.
Later that morning, they sat staring at the clouds, trying to determine why every other one appeared to be some sort of rabbit. Kairi and Riku both made a show of teasing Sora about his foot. He had injured it while tripping over Tidus, who had been quite upset at being trampled so early in the morning. "So, what did you guys get me for Christmas?" Kairi asked jokingly. Sora and Riku exchanged horrified glances.
Luckily, however, Kairi didn't seem to notice that neither of them had remembered Christmas this year. She picked up a stick and threw it off the island. "What do you think Yuffie and them are doing right now?" She asked curiously. Sora was surprised, but tried not to show it, "I dunno…" He replied. "Probably getting really drunk at some little party or something." He snorted. Kairi shivered, "It's getting cold out here. I think we should start looking for a warmer hangout!" She exclaimed.
"Or we should start wearing some warmer clothing." Riku said simply. Sora laughed and poked at Kairi's skirt. "You have got to be cold in that!" She smacked him and made him slam his foot into the paopu tree. "What if I like this skirt?!?" She yelled at him, trying not to show that she was sorry for making him hurt his foot again. "Maybe you should put your shoes back on, Sora." Riku laughed, noticing him cringe.
Later that day, they again sat on their favorite paopu tree. Trying to relax after a long game of beach volleyball. Sora had shrugged off Riku's suggestion of putting his shoes back on, and had hurt his foot again when Tidus tried extracting his revenge. Kairi sighed deeply, and Riku glanced over at her. "What's wrong?" he asked, Sora looked up from bandaging his foot and gazed questioningly at Kairi. "Oh.. Nothing really, I just wish I didn't have to go home…" She said sadly. " It's getting dark, but I don't want to leave."
Sora scooted around to look her in the face, "Do you want us to come home with you? We could stay until it's really late and then you won't have to talk to your parents. They're leaving tomorrow anyway, right?" He said, Riku glanced at Sora and Kairi. "Kairi, your parents are leaving you alone on Christmas Eve?" He asked, surprised. "Yeah, they wanted it to be--special, this year." She said, not bothering to hide the bitterness in her voice. "They won't be back until next week." She pulled her knees up to her chin and buried her face in her hands. Riku crawled closer to her and put his arm around her shoulder, Sora did the same. They sat cuddled up together watching the sky until it began to get dark, them Riku and Sora escorted Kairi back to the dock.
After a somewhat chilly trip home, Kairi stood on her porch and hugged Sora and Riku goodnight. "Thanks, you guys, but I think they would react even worse if I were to walk in with you two following me. They don't exactly approve of my choice in friends, you troublemakers. Good night." She said as she walked inside.
Sora and Riku walked along the empty street, staring at the ground. Both had something to say, but neither wanted to go first. Finally, Sora broke the silence, "So, um. What do you think of Kairi's parents?" he asked. Riku shrugged. "They're not very loving. A lot like having a pet hamster. Only you can't get rid of parents when you get tired of them." He stated. Sora had to think about that for a moment, trying to figure out how Riku had managed to come up with such an idea. "Do you think she'll be okay?" Sora asked him, still wondering about hamsters. "Yeah, she'll be fine, she just needs good friends. Like us." He said smiling. Sora smiled back, but he could tell that Riku had meant something else. As they reached Sora's house, they said good night to each other. As Riku turned to go, he remembered something, he turned around and caught Sora just before he went inside. "Oh, Sora? Are Kairi's parents really leaving tomorrow?" He asked. "Yeah, in the morning." He replied. "Why?" Riku turned to hide the mischievous smile playing across his face. "Oh, no reason. Just curious. Good night, Sora." He said. "Good night." Sora replied, rather worried.
