After the concert, Sora and Riku just looked at each other, unsure of what their usually happy-go-lucky friend had just said. Not only had she just acted completely unlike herself, but she had ran off which wasn't a Kairi-thing-to-do at all. They both realized that they had to go after her and get their old lives back; afterall, all three of them wished for that. At that moment, Kiara interrupted their cluttered thoughts and brought them back to reality.
"I feel really bad for Kairi. She wants her life back..."
"What do you mean Kiara?" Riku asked, his voice raspy and dry.
"Well, when she started her singing career she got taken out of school and she never got a proper education. She wanted to become a famous writer not a famous singer. Anyway, I've got to go. If you guys need anything, come to Twilight Town. I'm in the big tower in the front of the town. Okay, nice meeting you guys." And before either of them could say thanks, she ran off. Riku and Sora were both glad to get rid of her for the second time, but it wasn't the last they'd see her.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, Kairi was looking all over the cave. She almost smiled as she looked at the make believe drawings that she had drawn with Riku and Sora when they were younger. Then she came to the one Sora and her drew of each other. She had forgotten that she had drawn a paupou and so had Sora. All of a sudden, she broke down crying again, "Why did you leave me Sora? WHY?!" She sobbed into her lacy, cornflower blue halter - which didn't provide much comfort.
"Kairi... I never left you. I'm right here..." Sora appeared behind the cave's opening with his arms outstretched towards his very best friend, Kairi.
"Huh? S-Sora is that really you?"
"Yes."
Kairi got up off the sooty floor and ran into Sora's arms, the most comfortable place in the World, "Oh, Sora! I missed you so much! You never came back and I thought I'd never see you again!" she said in a muffled voice as she buried her face in his chest. There the two friends sat, embracing, and moments rushed by of happy memories and games. It was a few minutes before Sora finally spoke again.
"When I closed Kingdom Hearts the barrier of the Worlds went up. And since then, Kingdom Hearts has been opened again, and Riku and I just got back to the island."
Kairi thought for a moment, her vision blurred from happy tears. "How could Riku be back if he was in Kingdom Hearts?" she thought, but then spoke aloud, "Riku's back?"
"Yeah, he is outside." Kairi slipped her arms around Sora's neck and looked into his eyes, "It doesn't matter anymore. I don't care if he finds out- Sora, I..."
"Shhh..." Sora lifted Kairi's chin and took her into a kiss. She was stunned; they were both stunned. Her heart thumped against her chest. After all those years they both knew how the other felt; it was a feeling that couldn't be expressed in words. And being so comfortable in each other's arms, there was no reason to be embarassed. "Kairi... I love you."
"I love you too, Sora." She looked up into his eyes, "Never leave me again..."
Then he took her hand, gave one of his dopey smiles, and ran outside to get Riku.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They walked along the beach and Sora was holding Kairi's hand. Kairi, knowing the crush that Riku had had on her for years, didn't know whether to be embarassed; but this time, letting herself free with Sora in front of Riku, made her blush. The brother and sister relationship which had turned into a summer romance, was finally something real.
Riku was the first to speak during the silent walk, "Kairi, why are you quitting your singing career?"
"I wanted to finish what I started, which was Waiting for you guys to return. We're all here now, and it's OK."
"I know." mumbled Riku.
"We should get some sleep. It's kinda late, and we can do what we used to do on the beach." Sora chuckled.
Riku grinned, "Okay, sounds good. You guys can come to my house for the night..." he paused, and smirked, "If it's still there, that is." All three of them laughed and they went running off into the sandy beaches of Destiny Island, their footsteps a tangle of friendship, and their words a gift from the sea.

Author's Note:
How do you like the whole Sora and Kairi fling? Well, R & R because for upcoming chapters, Alexa and I are really going to have to know what you guys like! =D
The rest of the story depends on YOU. If you don't like what's going on then say so, because your voice could rock the plot of upcoming chapters. Pretty cool, huh? - Yeah... I try. XP
Thanks, and don't forget to R & R!
