Chapter 2: I'm So Used To My Life With You Around
Sora's POV
Where am I? I ask as I slowly wake up. I soon realize that I'm in my room, and wonder where that question came from. I look around for any clues, but find none. I then think of possible reasons. Then it hits me, my dream. I just had a dream that was really odd. I was walking down this street, in the middle of nowhere. There were tall buildings everywhere, but they all looked alike. They were just different in size. It was sunny and full of people. I couldn't make out their faces though. It was like they didn't have one. I walked around trying to push my way through the crowds. The people were shoving me in all sorts of directions. I was so confused.
I tried looking in the windows of the stores but I couldn't make out anything inside either. I couldn't understand what was happening. It was like I was in another world. One that I felt like no one could see or hear me. One I didn't belong in. Then something caught my eye. There was a flash of silver. I lost it for a moment and strained my eyes to find it again. The crowd just kept getting more and more packed. I could almost lose myself in it. I moved my head from side to side trying to look past everyone. Then, I found it again. This time I made sure not to lose it again. I ran closer to it, and found where it came from. The person who the shoulder-length, silver hair belonged too, turned around. I just couldn't help but stare. Those sea-green eyes captured me from the instant they met.
"Riku..." I said in a daze. He just looked at me with those beautiful eyes and smiled. I could believe that he was there, right there in front of me. I began to get closer to him, but as I did, he would take a step back. I didn't think much of it the first time, but then I tried it again. He kept backing up away from me. What bothered me the most was that he was smiling the whole time, like it was some sort of game.
Then suddenly, someone walked in between us. I tried to dodge around the person, so I wouldn't lose sight of Riku. It was no good though. As soon as the person passed by me, he was gone. I searched around but to no avail. I couldn't find him again.
I gave up on my search for a bit and decided to find out more about the city. It was mysterious to me. The was hardly any detail to it. Everything seemed to repeat itself, and everything was the same colour. It was quite the boring place and I didn't want to stay long. I went around this corner of one o the tallest buildings. I looked up and couldn't believe how high it was. My neck was hurting from looking up so high. Then I noticed something. It was the end of the city. On the other end of the street, was a field. I began to walk towards it and found a single tree, out in the middle of nowhere. As my foot made contact with the grass, a heavy wind began to blow and I had a hard time seeing with my hair in my eyes. I brought my hand up to my face and moved the hair. I then turned around and I nearly had a heartattack with what I saw. The buildings and people where all gone. There was nothing but...well....nothingness. All I could see was more grass. There were no trees, except that single one I found all alone, and that's how I felt at that moment....alone.
I was only about a foot away from the tree when I heard something. It sounded like it was coming from the other side of the tree. I went around it and found what produced the noise. It was Riku. A big grin appeared on my face as I got closer to him. This time he didn't move away from me. He just stood there with that smile on his face again. When I was close enough, I began to speak.
"Riku....why did you leave me earlier?" I got no answer. I asked again, but only got the same thing. Then he moved a bit. He got closer to me and held out his hands. I didn't know what to expect, but I soon found out what his motives where. He got only inches away from me, then he wraps his arms around me. I was shocked. I didn't know what had gotten into him. I did nothing to stop it though. I just smiled and layed me head on his shoulder. He then mumbled something, but I couldn't make it out. He said it again, but I still couldn't understand. Then, all of a sudden, everything disappeared. The tree, the grass, Riku...everything was gone. That's when I woke up.
I looked around my room while I regained my vision. I yawned and then realized what I was doing. I was on my stomach, hugging my pillow. I must have done that in response to the dream. I sat up and looked at the clock. It was only 7:35am on a Saturday morning. I didn't want to stay up, but I had no choice. I couldn't go back to sleep, so I got dressed and went downstairs for breakfast. I figured that I would just worry about it later, after I filled myself with food. I knew one thing for sure though, I did miss Riku...alot.

Well, how is it so far? I know this one was short too, but I wanted both of their first parts to be short, since they are just intros basically. The other chapter will probably be longer. Thanks go out to, goggle head girl, darkdancer, KazeShinai and Riva van Dyk for your reviews. I appreciate it so much. I hope I get more. Thanks =D
