Meet My Band (chp. 2)
Sora sat there unsure what to do next. His mother stared back at him with a furious looking glare. Riku leaned against the tree and watched this. The tension was beginning to thicken.
"Yo Sora's mother. I'm Riku, Sora's new friend." He said politely as he could, breaking the silence.
"Are you the one who made my little Sora miss his first day of school!" she screamed getting a lot of stares from people passing by.
"I guess so..." Riku mumbled as he glared at her.
"Uh...mother it wasn't his fault I left on my own will." Sora piped in trying to prevent his mother from knocking Riku out.
"And you expect me to believe that Sora? You never missed a day of school unless you were sick." His mother huffed.
Sora looked at the ground trying to think of something else to say to his mother. Riku sighed and began to fiddle with his chains. Sora's mother stood there tapping her foot impatiently waiting for a response. An idea came to Riku as he sat there in the middle of some fight he didn't want to be in.
"How about me and Sora go to my friend Kairi's house? She can catch us up with what we missed. She's the top student in the class." Riku suggested quickly deciding that might be the easy way out.
"Fine, you boys go ahead. Just don't let me find out you ditched school again." She sighed from the stress.
"Come on Sora." Riku beckoned Sora as he dragged him along.
"And you better keep you grimy hands off my little Sora you pervert!" Sora's mom yelled after them as they ran off.
Riku dragged Sora around into an alley and stopped. He turned around and smiled at Sora. The kind of smile that usually freaks people out. He pushed Sora against the wall and began forcefully kissing him. Sora pushed him off him and gasped for air.
"What do you think you are doing Riku?" Sora spat as he wiped his mouth.
"Oh nothing really, just feeling a little horny that's all." Riku smiled as walked out the alley letting Sora decide if he wanted to follow.
Sora having no clue really where he was, after all he just moved here, followed Riku. They walked in silence and Riku could sense the tension in the air. Instead of getting rid of it he just let it hang there not caring. It wasn't any of his concern if they talked or not. It's not like he talks much to people besides his friends any way.
"Riku, where are we going?" Sora inquired, still tagging along behind him.
"It doesn't matter, does it?" Riku replied shoving his hands into his leather pants pockets.
It wasn't very comfortable doing that one bit. The pants were already tight as they were. Shoving his hands in there only took much more room. He took one hand out of his pocket and bushed a strand of hair away from his face. The tension has risen again between them. But did it really matter?
"We're here." Riku mumbled pulling out a sliver key and unlocked the door.
They stepped into the mansion like house. It was almost like a palace to Sora...something he would never dream of ever seeing in his life. There were exquisite paintings adorning the walls, elegant vases perched in various places, a chandler hanging above with little crystals hanging off it, a long spiraling stair case which looked to be trim with gold, and much more expensive things. Sora stood in the door way gaping at it.
"What's the matter with you? You look like a fish that's been drug out of the water." Riku smirked humbly quirking an eyebrow.
"Nothing..." Sora stammered looking away from Riku's blazing sea green eyes.
"Alright, come with me." A slight smiled appeared one Riku's face as he grabbed Sora's hand leading him into the house's basement.
To Sora's surprise the basement was well kept. It was even furnished with three sofas, small wooden table, and what appeared to be a stage in the back of the room. Though people think he is stupid he couldn't help not to notice three other people lounging on the sofas.
"Hey Riku took you long enough" giggled the auburn haired girl as bounced off the couch and hugged Riku.
"Sorry I got sort of busy on my way." He explained pointing towards Sora.
"Oh no, not again Riku...don't tell me he's your new boyfriend." The dirty blond boy sighed rolling his eyes.
"You picked a cute one this time!" The other girl giggled.
"He's not my boyfriend." Riku growled sending death glares towards them.
"Uh huh sure he isn't." The auburn hair girl giggled once again.
"Oh by the way Sora this is my band. The guy over there is Tidus, the girl in the purple is Kairi, and the hyper girl in the yellow is Slephie." Riku clarified to Sora bluntly.
"He even has a cute name!" Both girls squealed at the same time.
Sora blushed slightly but shifted his gaze so they couldn't see. Riku rolled his eyes at the girls' antics. He picked up his electric guitar and started tuning it.
"Alright now, come on guys its time for practice." Riku said jumping up on the stage.
Tidus situated his self with his guitar few feet behind Riku. Kairi quickly went over to her digital keyboard which made strange yet good beats for the music. Slephie sat on her seat and picked up her drum sticks. Kairi started mixing with a techno like beat; Tidus entered in next with his guitar, Slephie began lightly tapping on the drums. Then the beat grew louder and Riku soon joined in with his guitar. It sounded wonderful like a professional band would. Riku started to sing the song with his deep soothing voice.
"Darkness consumed the heart, Wounds reopen again, Beliefs crumble apart, Life is near its end!"
"Welcome all your fears, Take away the happy times, After all these years, I'm forced to repent the crime!"
The beat began to slow down a bit and hitched, then picked up its normal pace again. It was shocking that people his around his age could do these kinds of things. Riku's voice was ringing clear through the room. It was soothing to hear yet the lyrics hold some sorrow in them.
"Suffer a little more, Living for the knife, Crazier than before, I fucking just hate life!"
Sora could have sworn he say Riku wobble a bit and almost lose his balance. If his ears were deceiving him Riku's voice was wavering a bit. Is Riku sick or was he just seeing things? If he is sick Riku is doing a good job hiding it from all his other friends. He watched him intently studying Riku and how every moment he looked more and more ready to collapse. He voice started to waver more frequently than the beginning of the song.
"Life is in my hands, So live in the pain, No one understands, That I was driven insane..."
Riku stopped playing his guitar and collapsed immediately on the stage. He spoke words that were leaving his mouth in a mere whisper. Sora leaped onto the stage and kneeled down by Riku shaking him. The other members of the band stopped playing and moved a little closer to Riku.
"Man I told that bastard to go easy on the drugs and cutting himself." Tidus groaned hitting his head.
"He's going to die one day if he's not careful." Kairi whined staring down at Riku's limp form resting on Sora's lap.
"Guess we better lay him down on the couch again." Slephie grumbled while helping the others lift him onto the couch.
"That wasteful bastard...was trying to escape life." Tidus complained while rolling up the fishnets on Riku's arm dabbing medicine on the cuts adorning him.
Sora didn't understand what was going on. He looked at the cuts and gashes covering Riku's arm but it still didn't make sense. Drugs? Cutting? What are they talking about? That couldn't be Riku, could it?
"Hey Sora...if you are wondering what happened just forget it." Riku choked out closing his eyes once again.
Sora eyes widen in horror. Riku's friends were probably right about him. He probably is taking drugs. The cuts are there so he must be cutting himself. Sora dashed out the house.
"Sora..." Riku mumble as he watched him dash away.
Everyone runs away from me once they find out what I do. They never stay either once they realize that I'm different from them. Sora is probably just like them...just another person on the side of the road who thinks I'm a freak. So much for trying be friends. I kind of thought he was cute too.
