Love Struck- chapter 4

Warning: Sora X Riku, Sora X Tidus

While waddling groggily towards the entrance, my eyes hovered into a mirror on the wall. My hair was a complete mess, but whatever, it's not everyday that it falls normally anyway. I brushed a chunk of egg from the corner of my mouth and ran a finger over each eyebrow.

I peeped through the door window on my tip toes to see who it was.

"Tidus", I exclaimed while swinging the door open and beckoning him inside.

"Hey Sora", he replied with a weak smile, both hands tucked away into loose jeans.

"Urm, I have sort of a confession to make…" he said as I ushered him into my room, rubbing the back of his head nervously. I swung myself onto my bed without a care in the world, expecting to spend yet another fun filled afternoon with my best buddy. How very naïve I am…

"Alrighty," I said gleefully, propping my head up, hand to cheek.

"Urrrr…." Tidus was turning a gruesome shade of reddish purple and I raised my eyebrow curiously. It wasn't like Tidus to get this way; he has always been a very collected person.

"On with it Stutter Bugger," I joked.

"I-…. rrrrrr…. You-…Humm…"

"Tidus?"

"Sora- I… I like you…" he spat and turned away, turning a deeper shade of red.

"Well, no shit Sherlock, we've been best friends since what- third grade?"

"No… I… love you, like you." He turned back around to face me looking very apprehensive.

My insides melted away like crayons under a hair dryer. My bed bounced up and down as Tidus took a seat next to me. A pair of large, large hands lifted my chin, causing my gaping mouth to close. I glanced at him... unknowing of what to say. His eyes were closed tightly so that several of his dark eyelashes jutted out at weird angles. He was quite beautiful…

"I'm sorry..." he said finally. "It's just that I heard about you and Riku and I just got so, well, jealous."

"You heard what?! From who?"

"Sora, I had to tell you. It's been eating away at me for as long as I can remember."

"It has?" ……………………..

"Yeah…" he looked up at me with ravishing, ocean blue eyes and leaned in for the kill.

His lips were so big and soft. I wanted to stop him but I just couldn't. Thoughts of Riku shot surges of guilt through my gut, but a more powerful sensation was taking over. A pang of pleasure released from my lower regions as Tidus's tongue entered Riku's territory; my mouth.

Stop… just stop him…No, this feels so nice… What about Riku? Riku… Riku… This feels so nice though…

He slowly lowered our groping bodies into the rest of the mattress.

"I knew it Sora," he heatedly through a kiss. I couldn't help but smile. "I just new it…" His face was glowing with happiness; his blue eyes shimmered with their movements. I returned his flattering statements by placing a soft kiss on his flushed cheek.

"You left the door unlocked… so…. I…"

But this was not my voice, nor was it Tidus's. I heard my door creek open and peered over Tidus's shoulder just in time to see Riku's gorgeous smile fade into a look of terror. His green eyes widened and then sunk into the most tragic expression I had ever seen.

"How could you," said a harsh, shaky voice. I could hear his pain and it killed me so. His eyes… those eyes… they were like a million daggers strait into my heart; ripping my soul to shreds and leaving me with nothing. Tidus had long since jumped off of me but all that was registering in these few seconds was the immense pain in my chest and throat.

What have I done?

Looking up into his dewy eyes, now streaming with tears, I made so say something but found that I couldn't speak. Riku shook his head and stormed down the hall.

"NO!" I hollered and sprang after him. "NO! NO! NO! WAIT!" I cried. "Riku, I love you! YOU RIKU! YOU!"

I sprinted down my stairs and out into the street, still in my pajamas, but it was too late. I sobbed uncontrollably in the middle of the street as I watched Riku's silver truck disappear around a corner.

"No, no, no…" I choked. "You can't do this to me Riku!"

I stood there dumb struck for a couple of minutes, muttering the words why and no under my breath before heading back inside. Tidus greeted me at the door; I had completely forgotten that he was there.

"I'm sorry… I should go…" he said, but I didn't reply.

More soon!
