Childhood Crush chapter 4---
Sora gave Selphie his full attention, staring at her, fingers drumming on his leg as he waited for her to tell him about Riku.
"Well, you see," Selphie said, lowering her gaze to the ground, "We're not exactly sure what went on with him when you left. He just suddenly got quiet, stopped talking to people, after a while even his parents. We tried cheering him up, but he took it the wrong way and started yelling at us about how we didn't care you had left."
Sora slightly winced unconsciously, he was the reason Riku was this way? Maybe it was because he had just kind of accepted the fact that he was moving, he had sort of made Riku angry the day he left.....
"What about our promise to stay together forever?!" A tear stained voice had shouted, anger mixed behind all the sadness.
"I-I'm sorry Riku, but there's nothing I can do about it...You know I would stay with you if I could, but I can't."
More tears followed the ones that had already fallen, "So that's it then? I'm never going to see you again....."
Sora shook himself out of his thoughts when Kairi waved a hand passed his face, "Sora, are you okay? You're spacing out..."
"What? Oh, yeah, I'm fine." He replied, giving a weak smile to the auburn haired girl.
She didn't look like she believed him, but she nodded, "Okay..."
As the others continued to talk, after Wakka had thankfully changed the subject noticing all the uneasiness, no one seemed to notice the person in black had been staring at them, or more precisely one person for a few minutes before walking off. ---------- He couldn't believe it, that couldn't have been him, could it? Why would he be back here, he left so long ago...
"Well I'm in no hurry to talk to him," Riku muttered darkly to myself. "He can talk with his other, more important friends." They had to be more important, right? Sora hadn't sought out Riku first, instead he talked with Kairi, Wakka, Tidus, and the ever 'I'm-here-for-you-Riku', Selphie.
He hated how that girl had acted all sympathetic, telling him she knew how she felt. "Yeah right," he mumbled, "Like hell she would have known how I had felt then, and the day she knows how I feel now is the day that I will tell Kairi I have a undying love for her." He paused walking on, shuddering slightly at the words that had just come out of his mouth. "Meaning it will NEVER HAPPEN!"
He soon reached his house, slamming the door closed when he entered, he knew he wouldn't get yelled at by his parents, because they weren't home. "Like I would ever want to see them again anyway."
It would have made him happy if Riku's parents had never tried to cheer Riku up when he was younger. They had said Sora would be back in a year or three, they had said they were so sure of it.
"Instead I ended up looking out my bedroom window almost every night before it hit me, they had lied only so I would cheer up a little." He hadn't waited one or three years, he had waited eight before he had given up. "And now he's back." Riku silently hissed to himself.
On his way to his room, Riku grabbed a bag of chips and a soda, then locked himself in his room. He didn't eat dinner or breakfast with his parents anymore, because of what they had told him.
He sighed, running a hand through his silver bangs that had covered his eyes. Maybe he should get his bangs trimmed, lately they bugged him. "Never should have let them grow..." he said to himself, then gave a sigh. He hadn't had a hair cut in a while, so his bangs had grown down to his chin, and his hair was able to brush against his collar bones.
"Definitely getting a hair cut tomorrow," he said, turning on his radio and getting on the computer to surf the web. It was what he would mostly do in his room nowadays.
----------
Sora mumbled a greeting to his mom when he got back home. He had been thinking over what Selphie had told him earlier almost all day. He ignored his mom's questioning and concerned gaze as she studied her son as he walked up to his room.
She had thought he would come home, well, happier than that. He had been able to see his friends, right? Also, he had been way happier when he left than he had come back.
Hinoki bit her lip slightly, before turning back to make dinner, she would have to ask Sora about it later, right now she didn't want to catch the stove on fire....
"I wonder what could have Sora so down," she wondered out loud to herself, as she stirred the macaroni and cheese.
A while later, she called Sora down to eat. Surprisingly, they ate in silence for a few minutes, before Hinoki decided she was going to crazy if it continued.
"So, umm, did you see some of your old friends," she asked, noticing the way Sora slightly narrowed his eyes, as if regretting something.
"Umm, yeah," Sora said, giving his mom a smile that she saw straight through.
"Okay, spill it." She said sternly.
"Spill what?"
"What's wrong?"
Sora sighed, his mom wouldn't give up till she got it out of him. "I just haven't really talked with Riku, that's all." Well, it was partly the truth....
"Oh," Hinoki replied, blinking at her son. "Well, you're getting a haircut tomorrow. Just to let you know, your hair is getting a little too long, but don't worry. We'll only have an inch or so taken off."
Sora groaned, his mom could be so frustrating.....
--------------------------
Well, here's this chapter, I surprised myself by typing this so soon. Also, I was hoping it would be longer than this....but all well. Heh, again no beta (Wow, I'm on a roll ; )So sorry for any mistakes.
I know it was boring, like the last, but bare with me here ; ........and yes, Riku IS getting a haircut the next chapter xD Hmm, should I have fun with the next chapter and make it funny?
Now review again!!
